I want to know what the big difference between ics and jellybean that has everyone so razzled. I tried the jb tester from dax and I like it but.... it looks the same....
I am not sure what features are included in Jelly Bean in the ROM you're talking about.
However, main features are as below:
- Project Butter: Silky smooth UI and higher frame-rate, way less lag and freezing.
- New Notifications: The panel is way better, shows more details and is more interactive. eg. You can reply to an SMS from your notifications
- New Arrangement features: Widgets and icons make way for each other, so it's easier to move your stuff around and organize your home screens more efficiently
- Very minor improvements: Keyboard improvements, Better Play Store, Everything is more polished and cleaner
- Google Now: Swipe up on your lock screen and enter Google Now. Ask it how the weather's like, ask it how big a place is, you can even ask for pictures of dogs/cats or anything you like. You can ask it for a definition, and it'll read it out. If you ask for something it doesn't have a definitive answer for it'll always google it. You can ask it if there are Pizza places nearby, then Google will show you all the details of Pizza shops nearby. (Very cool feature)
Check Youtube videos for more information. But these are mainly the important functions and features.
Cheers

I wonder which version of Android will include a sarcasm detector.
Fellahs if you're going to attack one another then find somewhere else to be. XDA is no place to act like 5 year olds!
I guess they also have a similiar framework according to CyanogenMod team...
Espicially porting...
There is no big difference???
I think ics and jb is same. There is no big difference between ics and jelly bean.
And some little bit features are included in jellybean. No lot of features is there in jelly bean.
Wait and see.....
ICS taste better IMO then a jellybean

Ive just seen on Mike1986s ARHD thread that he has a rom in it with Sense 3.6. Having googles and had a good search i find no mention of this new iteration so i thought id start a thread for people to post new features and changelogs.
Ill make a list of features and things people find in the 2nd post as they are discovered.
Post away and let everyone know your findings!!
Changelog:
Recent apps readded in notification pull-down
Google search-bar is smaller
Setting new widgets is a bit different, you know when you are about to choose a special widget
Background in taskbar is a bit different
Slightly more grey finish to everything
SOME SCREENSHOTS HERE (thanks to loni90)

It's probably incremental. No visual changes, just under the hood.

Yeah Mike has said there are some major bug fixes in 3.6 but no mention of visual changes yet. Still waiting for the upload to finish then we can check it out!
Looking forward to seeing the changelog
ok according to THIS thread there are no visual changes in 3.6, just bug fixes. Just thought id put it out there so people dont get their hopes up!!
yup i figured as much, i guesse their just moving closer to 4.0
What is the difference between 3.5 and 3.6?
I hope HTC woke up and brought back the scrolling wallpapers
I'm just curious as to why there would be a new firmware for 3.6 there wasn't a need for a new firmware when going from 3.0 to 3.5 and that was big changes (visual). Why the new firmware if its only a "minor " change? Hmmmm interesting *anticipation sets in*
I'm mobile right now
After a bit of arguing and commotion Mikes links are now back up! Head over to his thread, check the 4th post to download. Be warned though because of all the attention the thread's been getting my download is REALLY slow (might just be my connection though!!)

The firmware is for the ICS ROM part, not the sense part.

Thats cool tho.. But, i got used to sexy task manager tho... its still there ofcourse..
The initial Setup Wizard is also slightly different at the Google Account bit. I think it lacked the icons for things like GMail, Market etc. so it was more plain IIRC.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using Tapatalk
sense 3.6 brings a more Android 4.0 design integration... not much but in some places. Like when you install something. An app, or set face unlock or anything. you see a google native look. I like it.
app logos are a bit smaller?
Google search-bar is smaller.
setting new widgets is a bit different, you know when you are about to choose a special widget.
background in taskbar is a bit different, and speeking of taskbar, you now got "recent apps" back again, been missing in sense lately. (but you´ve mentioned it already)
slightly more grey finish to everything, dont like it, seems washed-off. would like it darker, and more black-ish
Hi there!
I have an HTC One S S4 and like all of you I have updated to jelly bean but I have been kind of disappointed because of some bugs/removed features that I have encountered in the use of the new ROM, here are some of the one I have found:
1) the new keyboard is laggy expecially because of the assisted writing. Also I don't like the new layout which doesn't have the "remove keyboard" button.
2) mobile wallpaper on the background in ICS move themself while sliding now in JB the background image is stuck, it's not moving while sliding through the pages of the home.
3) there is lag for the live wallpapers on the home...don't know maybe it's the rosie
4) equalization option inside the music player has been removed, the music player from stock rom 1.78 had it
5) meteo and music widgets has no more 3d effect while sliding through the home, it would be nice to have the old widgets back!!
Let's try to report here all of the bugs/removed features and also the fix for them ( always if they exists ). Actually I think that HTC isn't going to realese any more updates and this is disappointing.
THIS THREAD IS FOR FIX BUGS OF SENSE BY KEEP USING SENSE INTERFACE NOT BY USING OTHERS HOME LAUNCHERS

For me one of the most annoying things it's the keyboard too.
Also for the "remove keyboard" button that I use a lot, my problem it's that i made a lot of mistake during typing due to the dimension of the keyboard. I check with two phone near, one with JB and the other with the old ICS, and the keyboard of the JB it's smaller, and the area of a single character it's smaller!
USB PC connection. I like ICS because I can see files on my phone just like on any other removeable usb device.

Seriously...asking to fix what are minor appearance and usability bugs in Sense is pretty much a full time job. If you're complaining about the wallpaper and 3d effects in widgets, you might as well make a list of all the ways Sense looks like crap starting with the basic color scheme and jarring difference in appearance when AOSP blue peeks through Sense green.

If I would have fixed those bugs/things by using another launcher first of all I would have NOT open this thread and second I would have NOT bought an HTC device in the first place. I like sense and I want to keep using it, also I think that a lot of people think the same. If you want to use CWD or something like that you are free to do that and nobody has invited you here.
P.S. I apologize for posting in the wrong section

Hi,
On top of that mentioned, I'm working with Hebrew UI and not the only one who faced a FC on the calendar when trying to enter/change a meeting with a recipient.
The same procedure while on English UI is all fine.
Already opened a help ticket which was already escalated to the technical support as BUG.
In terms of official roms, I see no benefit with JB over say, ViperS 1.2.1 (ICS).
In fact, I think its inferior in almost every way (things like no USB Mass storage mode etc).
I ran stock ICS for quite a long time (compared to what I normally do) and was quite happy with it, nothing particularly wrong with it.
Then came the JB OTA, and the forums got flooded with issues :silly:
I'm going to format my phone to see if then the keyboard keep lagging...I just need some times to do that...
Can I ask, with the new JB update, do you lose the ability to connect the phone to a PC and access the SD Card (as a removable drive)?

when you connect the phone to the PC you will see that device on the pc explorer and by entering in it you can access the drive but you cannot connect it as a removable disk...indeed this is disappointing
By the way I have erased all the data and reset the phone completely, now the keyboard it's a little better, less lag but still worst of the one on ICS
well the keyboard is pretty much the same..a little better but still laggy, I want the old back!!
Found this article that talks about Android 5.0 features. I personally think social integration hub and personalized settings won't happen. Android doesn't need a social hub and Google doesn't really care about providing that. Personalized settings for allowing stock android sounds great but I don't know if the hardware manufacturers will allow that to happen.
Profile Management: BB10 has it, Android should offer it too.
Video Calling App: I think we actually need this
Text Message Sync: This would be very helpful, I use SMSBackup+, but native functionality would be nice.
Can`t wait for Google I/O 2013 in May!

what do you guys think? Some of the features in this article are quite useful.
I hope the new OS isn't going to be a let down, I can't think of much there is for Google to implement
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
I don't think that Google will provide a "built-in social networking application". It just... doesn't fit.
The messaging, on the other hand, is highly possible. Not sure about the personalized settings, although I hope they'll implement that.
My prediction is that they'll break bluetooth worse than they already have. Or they'll break some other basic feature so bad that it becomes as unusable as bluetooth is in 4.2.1. Maybe it will be the sound this time, or wifi. Whatever they break in the new Android, you can rest assured they'll wait at least 3 months to fix it.
People still use bluetooth!? xD

ideas:
Spoiler
-launcher/lock screen
-line rider type game where you control the character
-2d fighting game like art of fighting for the SNES
-multiplayer fps where you create your own map with a creative mode (minecraft style)
-roller coaster tycoon style game
-many more!

Google Talk? G+ Hangouts?
What needs to happen:
- Unified messaging: messages, google talk, google+ messenger and it would be great if they also could integrate whatsapp / fb messenger. (but that's not going to happen)
I'd like to see better support for miracast. Also it would be great if they took an update to just do a ton of bug fixing and fine-tooning of various ui aspects and performance. For instance, the emoji keyboard is very inconvenient to use. Full integration into the default keyboard would be a very nice improvement. Also the blue text selecter thingy is very difficult to use, and hasn't recevied an update since froyo or even earlier. Tiny stuff like that can be really irritating when it goes unfixed for a long time. Also if you push the multitasking button while the keyboard is open, then switch back to the app you were just on, android will have a sort of frame stutter.
It's tiny stuff like this that iOS has a lot of time to get right, considering there aren't any real feature upgrades to it. Anybody notice how long it took for people to not give a crap about siri?
So yeah, I'd like to see a more refined os.

I agree, but it would be nice to have one standalone app that would be great at video chatting.
I don't seem them putting all the third party messengers together like whatsapp, but it would make sense if they combined messages and video chatting together.

Also I have the pie feature in JellyBomb which I like as well.
Here's my wishlist of Android 5.0 (Key Lime Pie) changes:
1. Change the toggles to work on a single press and settings for a long press
1.1. Add the ability for developers to add toggles to the toggle screen and a setting to select which toggles I see and re-order them.
2. Add multiple widgets to the lockscreen
3. Add ability to disable lockscreen left-right swipes
4. Add ability to remove unused home screens
5. Add phone number entry auto-search
6. Add phone app setting to always start on the dial pad
7. Let me uninstall apps that are not system apps by default without having to root. (Google+, Currents, Google Music,carrier apps, etc.) System apps *should* be just those required to run the base system, not those freely available in the Google Play Store and just pre-loaded.
8. Add setting button to refresh media or handle media auto-refreshing better
9. Add a backup system without having to root
10. More overall configuration options ala CM or AOKP. Even if they're in the hidden Developer Options settings.
Not 5.0, specific, but Google Apps related:
1. Standardize the placement of search buttons in Google apps since they removed the search button
2. Standardize the placement of menu buttons in Google apps since they removed the menu button
3. Add a setting in Android Chrome to display a new tab when it's opened.
4. Add the ability to re-order bookmarks in Android Chrome
Support for bluetooth low energy would be welcome (Bluetooth 4.0 ble)

Android should give us the option to close processes that we don't need to be open to free RAM, and it should
be a system that allows the device to work in an efficient way with minimal internal storage usage occupied by the pre-installed
applications.
Well considering we have a good month to actually play with our phones before any real custom development begins, we could use this time to come up with ideas that would be great to have on custom ROM's specifically for the Galaxy S4. I myself believe the next two years are gonna be insane and month is nothing compared to the fun we are all about to have!
So let's hear, what do you want your GS4 to do that it can't do right now. I personally would like to see someone make use of air wave more effectively and air view.

Exactly what I was hoping for. There's no point in buying a phone with so many "exclusive features" and immediately flashing CM and having the exact same user experience you had on your last phone. I mean, do I love AOSP? Of course I do. But why not try to get the best of both worlds? Can't wait for it, akira!

I am generally happy with my S4. Screen is great, the features I am interested in, Navigation, Translation (sTranslate), tethering ( I am on the plan), Bluetooth, and many others working. I am waiting until my 2 week return period is over before rooting and then debloating. I am using Nova launcher and have had no problems with lag. I did find that the home button with the smaller lower bezel than my SIII sometimes causes me to hit one of the dock icons; will require getting used to. Here is what I don't like and would like to see change:
1.The phone dialer. the white is awful
2. Contacts. Also in white, awful
3. Battery icon. Would love to be able to change it.
4. I personally like the 4.1 lockscreen with weather and time. I installed dashclock and used that a one of my Lockscreen widgets but still am not happy. I would love to see the opportunity to change the lockscreen style and type.
I am sure that I will find others, but that is it for now.
All Samsung features with the look & customization of AOKP, PA, Rootbox or Xylon.
idea of the year right here
and i can't believe it wasn't implemented by samsung and shown off at all the demos..
almost every website on the net today incorporates hovering the mouse to expand menus, show list options, features, toggle content, etc
this i would argue is THE biggest shortcoming of not just android, but all mobility today. there's no solid solution to imitate this on a mobile phone.
the galaxy s4 is the first phone which can overcome this shortcoming with its ability to support scree hovering. but what did Samsung choose to implement instead? a zoom in option baked into their stock browser .. which they removed flash support for, crippling one of the biggest breakthroughs in mobile innovation we've seen yet.
any developer who implements this will make front page of xda for sure

Extended desktop mode, the status bar takes up to much screen real estate. Pie controls love them on my nexus 4!
Id love to be able to re-map the double-click of the home button. More options to edit toggles. No need to have that many toggles Im never going to use. Dark themes throughout UI. More apps that can be utilized in Multi window. Using the calculator with the browser or banking apps for example. Swipe the status bar for brightness control, no need to have the slider taking up space in the notification drawer. Swipe between tabs on phone app, same in any other tabbed touchwiz apps. Let me use Wallet dammit!
Love the idea of AOSP/touchwiz mashup. There actually are some features Id like to keep. Too bad Samsung's design team is still stuck on Gingerbread aesthetics...
Remote
A cool feature would be a timed t.v. remote to go off say at 6:30 to wake me up for school
Some PA love would be ideal! DPI changes are necessary with this awesome screen! Plus PIE and Halo would be awesome to have! Oh and remapping of hw buttons is a must for me.
"Time to Rebel"
With the recent changes Facebook has made to make us use the Facebook Messenger app, ive taken a next step to start building a Java based Chromeview built specifically for Facebook allowing you to message users the way its always been. In a nutshell, Fellow is a WebApp based on Facebook Mobile.
Here it is
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.NxIndustries.myfacebookfree
With the recent update, I focused on Media uploading and Java scripting and for the majority of Kitkat devices, it works but for some, you arnt so lucky...
Facebook Lockscreen
I actually found this activity on accident while developing my Launcher for the HTC M8 and figured i'd make a small app out of it.
Set Facebook Lock is a small application that allows a backdoor to use the Facebook Home's lockscreen without the need of the actual Home application and allows any device to use it bypassing Facebook's device detection. (I do not actually know if it works for all devices but worth a shot)

Awesome app mate, love it so much that bought ad free version...
2 suggestions though:
- Make arrows on top bar smaller and plain should blend better with material ui... It seems a bit off to my eyes.
- Make refresh button movable and excludable (is that even a word?) like Facebook chat heads, because it gets in the way,and going to menu and enabling/disabling it is a bit troublesome, therefore moving it somewhere else as needed seems easier... You could even make it hide like halo from paranoid

Il take this into consideration! This is what i like to here.
I agree on icons as basically their place holders for now, need to make it more material like. Need to make a material style for kitkat users. Floating Action Button was an experimental thing. I didnt know how people would react to it at first but its one of the things that make this webapp unique.

Cool! I quite like the floating refresh button, if you make it movable, it would be perfect!
Maybe add a full screen option?
That's very good work mate! I also use your launcher
This app is amazing, I'm really hate the official Facebook app and Fellow is perfect for me.
Just a few kilobytes, and a million times better than the official app, great work!
The only thing that bothers me is the loading bar (Image at attachments), If you can place it a little higher it will be awesome.
That was bothering me as well over few days after using it lol. Il surely look into it.
Great, hope you will fix it soon.
I left a review at the Play Store (Free version), look into it
Gonna be working on an update soon and taking everyone's feedback into consideration. I will be adding a more material feel to this as well as transparency options for kitkat+ users.
