I see that dhd users are getting a ota for sence 3.0 and android 2.3.5 but the sensation is running 2.3.4 Wtf?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I believe we have 2.3.5 leaks which probably means it should be coming "soon."
Don't quote me though.
Word is we're skipping 2.3.5 to get 4.0 in the new year

I don't think that htc leave Sensation on 2.3.4 till ICS release, while desire s, desire hd and incredible s have already 2.3.5 with Se se upgrade (2.1 TO 3.0).
I don't belive that we Will have ics in earlyer 2012, but maybe in february, so i belive in an update TO 2.3.5 in this month.
I'm speaking basing that on my experience with Gingerbread upgrade or the last year (also with other manifacturer).

I hope you are right...this way htc could take a little bit more time to better develop the ICS update.
I think we'll have to wait at least until march to have android 4.0...and I don't think this would be a bad thing. More time to fix bugs, more time for developers to make their apps ICS-compatible, more time to develop the new sense ui (which I think will be the main reason why we'll have ICS around march). All this while we're still playing with android 2.3.5 and sense 3.5...I could have a lot of patience this way...
AFAIK Desire HD, incredible, etc have not yet been confirmed to get ICS, so their only way up is Gingerbread updates.
As far as Sensation goes, I still don't like that phones like SGSII, Nexus S etc are getting updated to 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 respectively and we are left behind but we made a conscious choice buying the Sensation so good luck to us.
On another note, I really like how Sony-Ericsson listened to their customers last year after the X10 fiasco and in my opinion are the leaders right now in update turnaround. They will probably be the first to release ICS for their current lineup, as they have already finished coding it. They are only waiting for country certifications now.
Having owned an original HTC Desire, there are huge advantages to rooting it etc. It's biggest fault was its poor internal memory storage therefore low disk space was always an issue when it came to installing apps as stock. Therefore rooting allows use of the EXT of the sd card thus increase memory available. In addition, the Desire was left behind restricted to Froyo with only a poor Gingerbread and lacking sense 3.0 update to be released by HTC.
But now after becoming the owner of a Desire S I am less inclined to mod it! These previous issues are gone, with 1GB of internal storage it is far more than sufficient. Gingerbread and Sense 3.0 is the shipped software, with lets be honest not a whole of difference in comparison to 3.5.
Overclocking is never something I have seen necessary, my Saga runs smooth and I don't experience any lag etc so this bonus with rooting I have no interest with.
Therefore I propose to you, why made you decide to root and flash custom roms on your Saga?
What benefits have they brought that you believe are essential? Or are you just a bit of a modding junkie
Thanks for taking your time to read my thread, I hope you guys can share with me some of your opinions and feedback received here can help less eager users like myself!
I just hated Sense...
+1. I bought the phone because it was cheaper than the equivalent phone from another company. Also the build quality was much better. Although I didn't mind sense I planned to switch to cyanogenmod as soon as it became available (thanks superkid )

Well, for me it was something completely opposite of you both, i wanted Sense 3 on my device with the awesome lockscreen and carousel-like home screen. I first saw that on my friend's DHD, who helped me A LOT in flashing my first ROM.
I too came from a Desire... And I too was impressed by the improvement the Desire S is compared to the Desire. It was very good just out of the box.
However, I missed the little tweaks I made using the miui rom. For some reason I felt the Miui rom to be more intuitive, more adaptable to my quircky needs... With the Miui rom I can just tweak the way it looks more precisely. I want another lock screen, fine, just change the lock screen. Another launcher, another font, another .... you get the drift.
I was a great fan of Sense. Tried several CM and non-sense roms, but I just ended up missing Sense. The non-sense were lightning fast, but still missed the good feel of sense. Then I tried Miui and now I wonder where the rom was all that time...
That's why I Rom my DesireS...
Grtz,
J.
I love build quality of HTC phones and extremely hate anything that is overbloated. Sense is a queen of bloatware. It was nice to have it on HTC Hero (v1,6) UNTIL i've found CyanogenMod. Since than all my phones (Hero, Legend, G2, *Failation*, DS) were powered by CM. Fast, functional and simple. This what Android is meant to be.

I started because I knew virgin would take forever to release sense 3.0 update
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
Many reasons:
Get rid of operator software
Get rid of HTC Sense
Overclocking
Upgrade to the newest Android Version
Other minor reasons: remote control, screen captures...
First of all: Titanium backup (which requires root).
The phone before my Desire S was also running android, so I wanted to restore my apps.
Reason 2: Custom roms + custom recovery.
I wanted to try out sense 3.0 (The official update was way later than a fully working custom ROM) and custom ROM's tend to have better performance and more fixes compared to official releases due to custom kernels etc.
Reason 3: Remove bloatware
Reason 4: Make all apps work, even those that require root.

With Desire S stock - 100% satisfied
Modded Desire S - 200% satisfied.
Also I recommend sense 3.5, much much better than 3.0. It adds more functionality
It's been tweaked a hell lot better and about 50% faster than 3.0. Trust me. You will feel the difference.
Trust me, I was like you when I first got my desire S.
It did all I wanted. What more could I want?
Then I decided to just try rooting and see what it was like.
Then after rooting, with ROMs etc, it made the phone much much better.

1. i'm new to rooting/flashing android phones. my phone prior to the DS was the Wildfire. I had it for a little over a year and it remains 100% stock to this day so i wanted to experiment on the DS. I was originally gonna go for the Sensation XE was since I'm new to rooting, It'd hurt less if i bricked the DS compared to the Sensation XE
2. to get rid of the extra stuff like plurk, twitter etc that i don't even use.
3. it's FUN!
Because once you started s-offing and rooting and changing roms, you wont be able to stop. Because there are some feelings that came with it. Escpecially overclocking thing.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
i haven't tried overclocking my DS just yet. I dunno, maybe it's just not my thing but to each his own i'm sure i'll give it a whirl just to test it. but gotta read up on it a lot first before i actually try it. ROM wise, i'm currently using Endymion 3.1 and it's VERY nice indeed happy new year in advance to everyone
theres nothing to worry if you overclock your ds. i tried to overclocked my phone up to 1.6ghz and battery temp is still at 34. Im currently on MikRunny Rom

Do it
you won't regret it
or just use 3.0 for a while longer and see where you would like improvements, then when you get bored use 3.5
I rooted because T-mobile took ages to update to Sense 3, and I new ICS was coming and I would want to switch to CM9 asap. Now running Superkid/MDJ's ROM, despite a few bugs very usable, no going back for me, only forward to a (once again) fully working ROM. Also, I thought Sense 2.5 was quite fluent, appreciated the more fluent sense 3.0, but it lags like hell compared to AOSP ICS
1. Apps, that needs ROOT.
2. Other ROMS, i always was interested in MIUI ROM.
3. Now ICS, I probably won't come back to Sense (maybe to 4.0)
One of the main reasons why i got into the unlocking and rooting business is because i hate being told what i cannot do with my own stuff. Kinda stinks "Apple" all over, and i hate that kind of cheap marketing. i bought a device with an open-source operating system for what? To be told that since my device has a non-open-source custom UI, i can't experiment with it (despite buying it out to the last penny)?
Screw that. I just wanted to S-Off and root for the heck of it. Hell, when i did that, there weren't even any good ROMs available for the DS, except a couple that i never liked much anyway. My reasons for S-off and rooting today have matured and changed from those days...but i still remember the anger i felt when i had found about s-on after purchasing my phone... (this was my first android, and i didn't know ANYTHING!!). But look at where we've come today...we have one of the the best performing beta ICS on any device, and if it were not for the camera, it would be good enough to be released as stable!
Would we have gotten this far with a locked bootloader?
So why did i root? Because HTC said i couldn't.
Because of apps which need root, because to get rid of bloatware which comes with Sense, because I simply wanted to do it.
I've started with CM, but I couldn't fix the GPS issue so I switched to some Runny ROMS. Now I'm a happy user of MIUI, which is for me the best mobile experience in my life
I've been using Android phones for about 2 years now, and my replacement G2 broke right before the 90 warranty. I got T-Mobile to give me a sensation for free luckily. Anyways, my experience with Android has always come down to this - fun to use, but never as responsive as other mobile OS's. Even rooted, my old Moto Cliq and G2 would lag. However, I just rooted and installed Android Revolution on my Sensation, and its ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! No lag AT ALL. I know for a lot of you this is normal, but because I am discovering this just now, it's honestly a milestone for me. I was so sure I was going to switch to WP8 once it was released, but no longer. THANK YOU SO MUCH ANDROID DEV COMMUNITY!
Welcome aboard !
Next step - ditching Sense
I disagree :L with sense 4.0 it should be a much better experience but I understand why u might want to ditch sense 3.x XD
BTW. Not starting an argument just saying
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
i felt exactly the way you feel now when i got my sensation, and the experience was improved even further when i switched to ICS AOSP(-style) ROMs... i really think android can compete with iOS in terms of ui responsiveness now (though i have never used an iphone 4s).
Welcome to the cool Sensation! Happy Flashing! : )
Honestly sense 4.0 has been a great experience so far. There's absolutely no lag right now. I think I will try the AOSP roms once all of the kinks are worked out.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
thats how exactly how i felt bro
Stay where you're at or go to Sense 3.6 ICS. Sense 4.0 isn't ready yet and whatever you do, do not install Sense 3.5 - laggy as all get out.
Next step use an AOSP ROM like CM9
same here.... but i bought my g2 on ebay already kinda scuffed up almost a year ago. something happened suddenly with my g2 (semi-bricked) and showed it to tmobile and gave me a choice of a replacement phone, sensation 4g or mytouch q. are you serious??? i chose the sensation of course....
Be sure to go over to dev site and thank mike1986. He and others have done an awesome job on this ROM/firmware.
Sent from my HTC Sensation ICS 4.0.3 ARHD 6.5.3XE. Clocked 1.62 ghz Rockin'
Yup. Just follow instructions here to a T, and you'll be amazed at how much better the Sensation gets from stock. Made the jump from Blackberry last August, and only did so because Android has come this far.
Good on ya!
As topic above, my previous phone is MotoFAIL Atrix 4g. After sticking with Atrix for years, it still stuck on GB. Even the leaked ICS/CM10.1 are not usable for daily driver. Plus, There is NO custom kernel for Atrix. Just a patch to improve battery live and other tweaks. So, the HTC Sensation still worth to buy in 2013?
if you can afford little bit more ..go for a recent one like HTC one s/x/x+ or samsung side or nexus
its just that sensation is bit old hardware wise but it is pretty efficient to hold ics or jellybean roms (remember sensation might not get official jellybean update ..but there might be custom jellybean rom in future..and AOSP/CM/AOKp already have jellybean butter )
if you are getting sensation for a bit low price ...go for it ..just buy an extra battery though ..anker 1900mah (stock battery sucks)
and come back here ..then become flashoholic
Hi everyone,
Today I was just reading about Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, and I couldn't help but wonder if it will be ported to Sensation XE.
An upgrade from Gingerbread (2.3.4) to Ice Cream Sandwich/Jelly Bean required a corresponding firmware upgrade, which was "conveniently" released by HTC. As far as I know, nobody is invloved in firmware development for Sensation XE (for obvious reasons, I suppose), and the next K release on Android will most likely require new firmware which, let's be honest, HTC is quite unlikely to release.
So, what are your thoughts on Key Lime Pie being ported to Sensation XE?
More reading!
Well there was no firmware release for jb on the sensation. So ur using ICS firmware on jb. The same will follow, correct me if wrong.

Well, JB could run on the same firmware as ICS. I'm guessing it was because it was in some ways similar to ics (ics (4.0) to(4.1/2/3)).
However ics cannot run on gingerbread firmware. Isn't it likely that Key Lime Pie will need need a new firmware too. I mean it's supposed to be a major upgrade.
Yeah I guess I see what u mean. But I still don't think ICS and jb are similar enough to justify the use of the same firmware. Then again I don't know that much detail about the developmental level so u could very much be right.
All we can do is wait and see I guess. Hopefully there is no extra firmware needed though.
Honeycomb and ICS look similar and are 3.0 and 4.0
Froyo and GB look similar as well and are 2.2 and 2.3
So hard to say really

Well I really hope Sensation gets Key Lime Pie. Fingers Crossed
Huh... tough one.
We just recently got the working JB (Sense) rom thanx to SebastianFM's kernel (Search for Revelation rom) which is great for th efirst release.
and as far as I know it was a preatty tough task to accomplish.
So, I belive, that IF we get the Key Lime Pie we'll get it firs in AOKP or CM rom's... not that sure about the Sense based roms.
But like you said... fingers crossed. :fingers-crossed:
As far as I know, it's possible, as devices which did not get official ICS upgrades were upgraded and are working well (for example, the i9000 Galaxy S, and many even older devices (My sister's old Optimus One runs JB, albeit it has it's own bugs)). The fact HTC released a new firmware for ICS certainly helped, but it was not necessary, because when you port a ROM to your device, you build it to run on a certain firmware. If we wouldn't have a new firmware, devs would probably port it to the older firmware version.
What's happening with JB and SebastianFM's kernel is that since ICS, Google began transition to ION memory management and drivers, instead of PMEM (which was used on Qualcomm devices, and each chip manufacturer had it's own tech). Since JB, ION became the preffered solution, and that's why AOSP based roms such as cyanogenmod and AOKP could run, but Sense 4+ (android 4.1) couldn't, as it requires ION drivers on the Kernel level.
So what I believe, it will be possible. newer firmware isn't necessary, as when a ROM is ported, it's made to work with the existing firmware. And for the kernel related, I wan't to believe that once we have full ION drivers, problems will be easier to solve, but that is for the future.
I'm not a dev, that's just my understanding of things.

Yes, if the sensation does indeed get android 5.0 key like pie, then it is pretty much going to be AOSP first, no sense version. Also, I don't know anything about key lime pie, but we probably need that 3.4 kernel with ION to work on AOSP based ROMs first.
Not to be skeptical, but I think there's not really a chance that key lime pie could run on a pmem kernel. Plus, the Sensation's ram is only 768 megabytes, so some type of more advanced memory allocator is probably required.

As things are going now, the chances of having a Sense KLP ROM on our Sensation are low, as the One S currently won't get any more updates, and ROMs are ported from a version of it (ville c2).
And for the low RAM, I don't think it's a problem yet, as devices with 512MB run JB quite well. but a better memory management is always good.

I don't think that RAM requirements are going to be a problem at all.
Google has already said that it wants android to run equally well on smartphones tablets as well as low end phones, and though Sensation XE may not be high end, it sure as hell isn't low end. So hardware wise, KLP shouldn't have any issued on Sensation.
For example read http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/486414/20130704/android-5-0-key-lime-pie-k.htm

So it's most likely our Senny can cope up to it, as it is said that Android 5 will be optimized to be lighter and built for performance and battery efficiency. it is rumored that this version will make the device smoother, and consume less RAM to make it more quick in performance. i dunno how google will do it but i hopethat said features will materialize and our Senny can taste the new android..it will be a huge leap from 4.0.3 to 5.0. so flashaholics like me, keep a backup of your stock roms! let's just hope HTC won't deny us old phone users this major update.

HTC already did deny us, after stopping updates, they won't update a 2-year old device. I didn't find any official confirmation for the One S Sense 5 update, but from what I found, it was explained that only the S4 powered One S will be updated, due to lack of software support from Qualcomm to the S3 platform. It's quite hard to believe HTC would make that effort of updating such old device. After all, their interest is to sell new phones, and 2 years are about the average time for an upgrade (personally I'm probably keeping my device for at least the next year before even considering an upgrade).
Maybe as an AOSP port or CM, but I don't think we will get Sensed KLP, and I don't think we'll even get it ported.

Too bad that even the One S HTC release wouldn't do us any good. But I really hope that at least KLP AOSP roms can run on current firmware.
Happy to help.
My previous device (HTC WILDFIRE) last official relase was Froyo but it runned gb ics and jb (very slow because lack of gpu and very very bad processor) but i hope we can enjoy KLP on our sensation

Buddy, you needn't say that. (Everybody's ) Sensation XE might be old, but that doesn't mean it's useless.
If you have any doubts see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391968.
Besides KLP requirements have been confirmed. Sensation can definately run KLP. I just have concerns if the current ics/jb firmware can support it, because firmware updates come from htc only.

agree :good:
Check out the specs for an upcoming phone, the htc Zara. Lots of similar specs to the sensation. It comes with jelly bean but since htc usually gives at least one os update, it's not hard to imagine that phone with key lime pie some day.
