[Q] HTC Sense 4.0 for Sensation - HTC Sensation

So even though HTC claims that Sense 4.0 is lightly skinned compared to older versions, why can't our Sensations not be able to run it? Wanted to see what others thought. I doubt that a phone needs a snapdragon s4 processor to run it. I'm thinking it's to try to get people to buy a new One model. It just rubs me the wrong way if this is the case.

This is all bloody marketing strategy to encourage people to buy there new phone. In my opinion sensation is capable of running sense4.0 . When they introduced sense 3 with our sensation they said same thing DHD will not be able to run sense 3 due to hardware. But now all dhd users are running even sense 3.5

When it comes to updating older models, HTC does it with the same enthusiasm as a cat being bathed.

Nice analogy you got there

The sensation can definitely run sense 4.0. without a doubt.

its a another marketing plan

There is already some 4.0 roms. Give them a try. It is deep alpha stage, but looks very nice. I like the end of scrolling effect

can you guys give some of your experiences on the newer sense 4 roms available? hows it compared to sense 3.6 roms in terms of speed and responsiveness? worth the upgrade? should i wait a little longer? thanks

Have a look in their respective threads in the Development sub forum since you'll get many more opinions there.
But I can say they're probably as good as 3.6 ROM's now in terms of speed and responsiveness. Battery life is as good if not better too.
They're definitely worth a try IMO.

I'm running Ordroid with sense 4 and its smooth...

i was used ordroid and it has no major problems, only hdmi output not working. it has no glitches and the developer works hard to improve rom. it's the second most used rom in forum, so many users can not be wrong, am i right?

I currently use 2 Rome, Arts for my daily use, and Elegancia for playing with sense 4. Elegancia is currently both stable and pretty

I have been using the Sense 4.0 ROM on my Sensation XE for over a month now. I am using Ordroid 8.2 ROM currently, and my phone has never felt better. The battery life has increased very significantly, it is more responsive and feels faster while using it on a daily basis. I would recommend flashing a Sense 4.0 ROM to everyone out there. Gives you so much more out of your phone!
Damn you HTC, XDA Developers LIKE A BOSS.

thanks for the responses. well i gave ordroid 8.2 a try. i have to say yes it is comparable to sense 3.6 in terms of speed and responsiveness. except rosie isnt as smooth when moving through your homescreens, even with ultra smooth rosie by default. i also missed the huge amount of tweaks i had from monarx sense 3.6 tweaks. but it looks like ordroid 8.5 may have all of them now. will wait for reviews. also i dont like the new completely dark keyboard (too dark )

This is not surprising at all. Glacier is using a bastardized version of sense 2.0 anyways, so there's no chance that htc or tmobile would hack a perfectly good version 3.0 just for glacier. Besides with announcement of sensation, tmobile will have a pure sense phone by summer, this would nudge most users to upgrade to the new sensation which what tmobile want anyways to increase sales. Glacier is an ugly step child used to show case video calling with 4g, sensation is the next flagship phone for tmobile.

Sense is more like what android should of been just with out the extra MB. To be honest I like sense better then stock so many things are better. I use cm 7 but use launcher pro. If sense could just make light framework edits like the Guys who make miui alot of people would use it simply it gives a better user exp. When I see stock I go eww. Its boring.

You're lucky you got in the game late. It was agonizing since I bought it at release. I was checking every day to see what developments had been made. I was even the first to post links to the kernel source when it dropped. The original OS was pure torture. I'm just a Vanilla guy.
Besides- Vanilla takes about 90MB, Sense hits about 280MB.
Vanilla>Sense based on sheer efficiency.
Eh, well I guess the myTouch is running espresso so its not like sense 3.0 would change much on espresso. I'm sure when it gets gingerbread we'll see some UI changes tho.

When i saw the Droid X and Droid 2 getting locked down i decided that will not be a "first comer". I want to wait and see how it goes when it comes to rooting.... i don't mind tinkering. But i'm not putting up with a locked bootloader either.
My benchmarks and general user experience between sense vs aosp are barely negligible. Plus sense has all the UI fanciness and Widgets and IMO is just prettier. For as much MB as sense uses vs vanilla I don't see any meaningful drop in speed or experience. That to me is enough to put Sense higher up on my list than vanilla.

I love both AOSP and Sense, but Sense is just so much prettier and has a whole lot more functionalities. I always end up going back to Sense. The FB and Twitter integration on Sense makes it worthwhile for me. And let's not even start on how horrid the caller ID screen on AOSP is
Although it's bulkier than AOSP, I see no noticeable speed difference.
Don't know if anyone has read the article recently, but there's an update saying HTC clarified that some of the older devices will get Sense 3.0. So, there's hope! And since ours is one of the more recent HTC phones, I think there's a good chance we may get it. If not, I think this will be the eventual ROM I finally leave stock sense for!
As others have said, with these phones having the power to smoothly run Sense, I prefer it for it's sleekness and most importantly the awesome widgets. I will say though, that I've fallen out of love with Friendstream because it's so friggin slow!
I hated the first release of sense that released with the hero, but I love sense 2.0, 2.1. Can't wait for 3.0 to be ported to the MT4G. Should hold me over until the Sensation is released.
See, I like both AOSP and Sense. Just depends on mood, but I can see the benefits of both and understand why someone would like one over the other. I just can't make up my mind sometimes.
I Needs It...... I needs my Superphone Fix...Ima have to turn a lot of tricks for the Sensation.

Sense or no sense

So I'm so confused .
I come from using an iPhone .

I have rooted and started messing with all the roms.
I don't understanc why everyone hates the sence UI. ??

It's bloated and takes up more RAM. The visual appeal does not make up for its relatively poor performance compared to AOSP ROMs.

Its not as customizable as I like. I like having a dock with 4 apps that I can change and I also like having the ability to change my icons so I use ADW. Purchase ADW EX from the market and you will not be disappointed. Its like having a grand new phone. It will be the fastest thing you've ever seen. Sense has too much eye candy which makes the UI nit as fast as it could be.

You are correct, except the excellent performance of the GS2 comes in a pathetic, cheap candy plastic shell. Personally I got the Sensation because I was a fan of the design, and have a preference for LCD over AMOLED screens.
No phone will be all things to all people The first thing I did was stick LauncherPro on the Sensation. My stock ROM (Telstra version) was horribly laggy, and performance way under what I expected. Now at least it's fluid enough for everyday use.
YMMV of course, but Sense 3.0 to me is way too heavy on the eye-candy and doodads, while offering little in terms of an upgrade over 2.1. The lockscreen is its one redeeming feature

Galaxy S2 - $800+ , have to import, who knows about warranty.
Sensation - $150 with contract, available in store, warranty.
I bought Sensation because of it's hardware and looks. Stock build is utter disappointment to me. I will happily admit that I had less lag with my single core MT4g with stock rom or CM7 rom and, IMHO, Sense 3.0 it it's current form is the only thing to blame.
For me, Sensation without Sense is just not right. I'm not exactly sure what people mean by lags. I've tried AOSP and MIUI roms and in all honesty, the difference between them and Sense is hardly noticeable. On a beast like the the Sensation, now that we have root and S-off there shall be cooked roms with Sense that will simply fly. In any case, the polished look of Sense 3.0 and its fantastic widgets are simply worth any so called lags, which I am yet to experience, from HD2 Android, Desire HD and now Sensation.

I know I'm not along when I say I like pretty much everything about Sense except the launcher. Luckily that's the easiest thing to change and you don't even need root. I installed launcher pro day 1 and still get to enjoy the sense lock screen, dialer, etc.
No Sense for me is like Non-sense

Sense roms are usually well over 200mb. With Sense you're lucky if you have 100mb of free ram with no other apps running.
AOSP roms are usually around 100mb. With cm7 I have 280mb of free ram with XDA app in the background.
AOSP roms fly compared to Sense and I actually prefer the ui of pure Android.

No matter how much the devs optimize sense it will still be much slower, far more bloated and barely customizable in comparison. Having some cute weather animations isn't worth it to many of us who bought it purely for the hardware specs knowing that as soon as root came around sense would be happily replaced with a AOSP ROM.
Coming from an iPhone I can see why you prefer a lack of customization in place of a little eye candy. It's what you're used to and your preference. Some people buy Porsche for its 0-60 time and others because of those sexy curves, It's just preference.

i hate sense, it just doesnt not look current. It looks like it was design in 2005 which probably was.... First thing i do on an android phone is put launcher pro... The performance changed completely. I cannot wait to put CM7 on mine because even with sense on this thing and launcher pro its still not as smooth as my Nexus one was...

Sense 4.0 for sensation

Sent From My HTC Sensation 4G
Since the Sensation line is the first to get the ICS update, I am guessing that it might be the first to get the Sense 4.0 update as well.
No way its gonna be rolled out together with ICS
I think, that we will not get Sense 4 (with ICS). When I asked HTC on Facebook - they said, that we will get Sense 3.5 with ICS.
So, are they any screenshots about how Sense 4.0 will look like?
I was a sense defender, but I've trying the Virtuous Inquisition ROM for about a week now, and AOSP is really good, it looks nice too. I just miss a couple of things like flipping the phone to shut the ringer, the volume being turned down after taking it outside your pocket...

What I'm not sure is the quality of it. because from sense 2 to sense 3, the design is like overhauled. But seeing from the screen shots, I see no significant design improvement. (but of course it has functional improvement)

ROMs - the best of

Which roms are the best and must be tested ?
I need your opinion.
ARHD, no doubt.
i cannot tell you which rom is the best one, all of our devs are awesome, and it is rude for us to compare roms.
i am using coindroid now, and it is really great.
They're all differently catered to each users own needs, really. Personally, I'm always torn between whether or not I want Sense or not. So i've moved between Elegancia 4.0 and Virtuous Inquisition. I enjoy the ablitity to have standard ICS, because it's definitely a bit quicker in some instances. I sometimes get better battery life, and the menus aren't cluttered with two settings (one for sense, one for ICS.) Sense is very good looking, however. The Widgets set your phone apart and its hard to beat the aesthetics of Sense.
That being said, I've used ARHD and to suggest it is anything but fantastic is foolish. Great battery life, great customization, very stable.
The devs here are great and they all bring something to the table.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA
There really isn't a best or worse Rom. They all have pros and cons. Some are more popular than others. Some people like sense, and some more AOSP like. 3.6 sense Roms are more stable than 4.0. Aosp like roms are faster and more battery friendly, but they are also more bland in my opinion (I like sense). Most of the 3.6 Roms are pretty stable and efficient. ARHD is great and stable and with lots of support, and it is also the most popular one and it is not themed at all (looks just like stock). The one I'm using now is Elegancia which is also great and stable with great support and heavily themed look that I for one enjoy. Insertcoin (also good) has the stock look but has some additional mods like Leedroid tweaks and battery percentage. These three are probably the most popular ones.
Like I said there really isn't a better or worse. It comes down to what you want and like.
right now i`m using virtuous inqusition . Is a great rom, nothing bad yet.

No offense meant to the op but I really hate these kind of threads. Besides the fact that there are approx. a billion and one threads with the same question, there is never an answer. Everybody likes different things and everybody will recommend what they themselves use. Personally I've got no use for ARHD but tons of people seem to like it. I've tried AOKP roms and like them but I actually miss having Sense so currently I'm on InsertCoin.
Try it all, that's what each and every one of these "what is the best..." threads ends up with. And just a suggestion for anybody else considering a "what's the best rom" thread....maybe use search and add to one of the already started threads?

I've been using Insert Coin for a while til I shifted to CoinDroid recently to check Sense 4 out. I suggest InsertCoin with Sense 3.6. But you have to try all to choose what is best for you
Try a few is the best for u...happy flashing!
Only you can decide which is the best rom for you, but I would recommend Insert Coin for Sense 3.6, and Ordoid for Sense 4.0. Although there are still bugs with all sense 4.0 roms atm, like you cant send files over bluetooth atm.
I use OpenSensation, very good ROM

Sense 5 looks like an awsome framework, can't wait!
Yeah sense 5 will be awesome. But let's wait, until HTC release sense 5 for ville c2. This could take some time as we all know
I tried it, it boots. Everything else doesn't work. We need the ville to get sense 5 so we can port it from there.

Better than sense 4x
Ivicask said that sense 5 is faster than sense 4.x , because it is better optimised. So sensation will have better respond with , and also better performance. No big reason to buy new phone til 2014...

Keep telling yourself that
Sensation was released with great hardware but HTC didn't bother trying to futureproof any of it. They just released something they thought was great, and didn't bother to pay attention to the competition. Look at the hardware differences between the sensation and the gs2. Sensation has less ram and no NFC.
hah
on't believe me? Read in vipers 3.0.1 thread latest few pages

I see that and I don't doubt that it'll be faster. However it is still sense. Sense is bloated. Heck, I'm running cm10 and I still see lots of lag. I highly doubt sense will ever be a fast as cm.

im running CM 10 and i have no lag at all. if anything cm10 is the fastest rom i have ever had on my sensation. and i believe sense 5 can be used as a base for some very very fast roms. dont need to keep sense jus desense it and your away

Well, jb works best with 1gb ram, we don't have it so that is the main reason for lag...

Maybe once the kernel of AOSP/JB with ION can be used on cm10 and cm10 based roms,it will have a better performance.

Yes once we have Full ION capability Roms will become much faster with the new memory management ( ION ) because ION is faster than plain old Pmem
Official update?

It's kinda ironic that even entry level phones from other manufacturers get JB while this doesn't.

at least we got the developers that make custom roms. i hope there will be a custom sense 5 rom soon.

but there is less ram around 430mb.
is this enough for muti-tasking?
