best sense 3.5 rom

hi guys,
would you mind sharing your preferred sense 3.5 rom?
This is for the wife's phone so it's more fore stable rom for daily use.
Thanks

InsertCoin worked well when I tried it. I'm staying put with Sense 3.0 though, because Sense 3.5 doesn't play nicely with using Exchange ActiveSync with Gmail (although that might not matter in your case).
To be honest though, Sense 3.0 looks nicer to me.. Sense 3.5 just seems black and white everywhere, even when using the Blue sky theme..

I would agree InsertCoin is very nice, but what did you mean about exchange/active sync what was your issue? Curious :\
Bulletproof ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1214023 2.x (3.5 version) very nice rom, super underrated...

Sens3y while LeeDroid is bringing his build back up to speed.

well I think that's got just about all of them covered
might be best to take a look at each on in the Dev forum and see what looks best.
almost all are reliable, and basically it will come down to a personal decision about which one you like the look of most.

I am using LeeDROiD SuperSensational V4.0.0 . Fast and stable.

I would definitely have to say Bulletproof, I have tried other 3.5 roms and I kept getting freezing and f/c. Bulletproof is the only one without errors

ive tried many roms so far my favorites are digitalized with ICS theme and leedroid supsersensational

Using SENSEaY 2.0.0 myself. It'd been top notch for me, except for 1 nagging issue. Some apps in the market will tel me they aren't compatible with my device. Not even hardware reliant apps. I'm talking apps like Yelp and TripIt. lol

Bulletproof is the best. No bugs whatsoever. Roman is a great dev.

I agree on the bulletproof...best rom i've used to date on my Sensation(and I've tried most of them) Not saying others are bad but something about BP just felt right...stable..nice extras...and for me the real thing that kept me using it was my ridiculously amazing battery life. I'm a heavy user on my phone(it doesn't leave my hand) and I'd easily get 13+ hours without a charge. Usually I'd just through my phone on the charger before I went to bed and it was just hitting the red.

Unofficial CM9 release/disscusion forum.(your feedback)!!

So, what you all think of the new release of cm9 by trip over at modaco this morning?
Built from cm source. Few minor bugs still but a damn good effort I say.
The first official launch of an unofficial cm9 rom built from cm source not Google looking forward to seeing a theme engine for more customisation.
B003 released which is apparently a lot more stable. What's your feedback?
Any views on ICS MiUI??
Remember to stay on topic. No direct insults. No direct links and no being nosey or *****y.......just share you feedback
If some one would like to make a what works what doesn't/bug list I can update op and keep updated.

From what I've read, the biggest downside is that gapps don't proper functionally. This thread will probably be closed btw.

What do you think of it?

It's great. it's faster than any of the others. there are a few issues but i havent played with it much. its midnight where i live. the issue with gapps is that people were flashing the gapps for a rom built from aosp instead of cm. CM gapps works.

Probably will, getting less like a community everyday, I say no more!!
I think it works well, gapps does work but the right package specific to base must be flashed. I think for a beta its a strong Rom. Be nice to see the official launch mind you

There is no more progress then his previous rom and virtious rom so really doesn't matter at this point

Although the rom is less advanced than what we have here, it is the first rom we have built from Cyanogenmod's source. Not from Google (AOSP), not a Senseless rom, but CM's source. That's kinda cool.

That's what I said...The only ROM's it doesn't work with is Sense 4.0 because of some missing EGL or some crap that HTC took out when they decided to use Image Sense. It conflicts with the application.

Hurm, I am using InsertCoin RC1 Sense 4 and installed the instagram last nite. I snapped a few photos last nite and uploaded it to my fb.. I only get 1 FC while choosing the profile picture.
Did you flash any camera mod before? Just want to help if can.. Tq

Its actually working perfectly on my sensation with ARHD 6.6.0.

same rom, but now quite working 100%...more like 90% of the time for me.

Over exaggerating how good it works doesn't help the issue. Be honest. If you search the threads you'll see that out the box it doesn't work for hundreds..Look on twitter too...We're not crazy..It's more than hit or miss broski's. It's only Sense 4. I think it's some sort of hack they did tho get around that issue with ImageSense.
Please don't read the beginning out of context

Any word yet on the updates?

Yeah...It's the ImageSense chip for the camera that they can't get to work.

They updated the app but now i can load or take pics but when it comes to editing it freezes and reboots.
Sent from my Sensation 4G using xda premium

The way I get it to work is via reboot each time I want to upload a photo.
P.S. They just rolled out an update.

I'm having the same issue on sense 4.0, any word if the update fixed the issue?

Hey!
Anyone else on the HTC Sensation (XE) that Instagram no longer crops but rather squeezes the picture taken, making the aspect ratio f:ed up.
This started happening to me either in the latest update, or the prior one.
Right now I'm on:
Instagram 1.0.2
Android: 4.0.3
Sense: 3.6
Non rooted
I'm using Instagram's own camera interface. It's here where the problem has started to occur.
It works with the phone's own camera interface, but that makes it way more messy.
I'm not very happy with Instagram's "half ass" release. Every one else releasing cameras for Android can make it work.

Add Volume+ app as not working with Sense 4.0!
Instagram freeze my phone when loading a pic from gallery, yes with Sense 4.0, I wonder if One X users experience these problems...

Same problem for me, freezes reboots, when photo is loading, even can't see what the iOS user's buzz is about
Also on Shnizlon's Sense 4.0
P.S. Read about the update - installed again - nothing changed..

No one is over exaggerating here, it is working without any hiccups on ARHD sense 3.6, maybe sense 4 guys facing issues not sense 3.6 i guess.

Yeah, I saw that v1.0.2 was rolled out with fixes for HTC devices, but phone still reboots when filters load.
I think MIUI.us is finally updating from 2.2.24 to 2.4.6 tomorrow, I might try that ROM & Instagram.

[Q] By Rooting, Will i lose Beats Audio ?

I was waiting for a stable release of CM9 which came weeks back and i downloaded it on the same day itself.
I love love love the Sense UI, the lockscreen and way i get music, missed calls and messages over it which has been restraining me from rooting along with the new black notification bar !
Another thing holding me back is that after rooting and flashing CM9 I will most definitely lose the Beats Audio Integration right ?
So...suggestions ?

If you love Sense, dont switch to Cyanogen. Its nothing like Sense.
But you will still benefit from rooting. And if you want to upgrade your user experience try out some of the other Sense based roms that will let you keep Sense and Beats and give you more stability and options

I'll wait till a fix and then try sense based ROM's. I prefer a stable ROM since i'm gonna use the phone everyday. And suggestions if you have a good Sense based ROM in mind ?

Eventually ...who want beats audio on senseless rom try this. You need to be rooted and flash from recovery.

You can always try sense 4 ROMs. In my opinion the UI is even better than sense 3.6 and you lose none of the great intuitive widgets or beats audio that HTC provide. Viper is quite popular when it comes to sense 4. Link to the thread is in my sig.

Yeah, Sense 4 is better, love the dialer especially Anyways, can i have the pure sense 4 look from the Viper ROM ?
I know and have read a lot that it is one of the best and stable ROM for sensations but i dont really like the blue-blue tinge to everything and the altered lock-screen. But, i know this only from the 3-5 screenshots i have seen of it....i am relying on you all to explain it to me (or you could post the thread which has more screenshots than the official thread)
Meanwhile i will YouTube it Thank for the help
Btw, your work on operator logo's is just amazing just checked it out. Could i use it on another ROM though or only Viper ?

Thank you for your compliment! always nice to hear my work is appreciated. But unfortunately, its only for the viperS (sensation) or viperX (one x) ROMs.
As for pure sense 4, viper has it. The screenshot you prob saw was the AOSP lockscreen you can switch to in the tweaks. It's the standard lockring from 3.6 otherwise. As for the blue tinge, I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. There's no blue tinge to anything I've seen while using the ROM. Just flash it to try it out. You won't be disappointed!!!

I think you have seen the blue then from jerrytans all in one theme, just flashing viper s alone gives you a really stock sense 4 feel by default

Sense 4 or JB

Hi all
I'm very torn as to which ROM I stay on.
I've been switching between Viper ROM & CM10. Both are awesome ROMs but I can't decide which I prefer more.
I really like the integration that sense gives you over AOSP but can't get away from the fact that CM 10 is giving amazing battery life.
If anyone can steer me in any direction I'd appreciate it.

Im on jb because its smooth and stable.
Sense has great options. But so does cmx
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app

Nobody can really make the descision for you. You need to decide which is more important for you, good intergration of apps, or better battery life? After that, it's an easy choice to make.

I really like both for those reasons, back on viper again now will probably check CMX soon
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium

why not just keep both on your phone and change to which ever one you fancy with boot manager................sudeki300

Go with one and commit to it. It's like when you're dating two girls at once, and they're both great, but eventually you have to pick one or the other. You're playing with their emotions. Do you want the bust y blonde in sense, or the amazing personality brunette with maybe some aesthetic flaws? You just have to tell one to take a hike and go all in with the other. Pimp out CM10, enjoy Sense 4s beauty, whatever.
For me, I'm a CM10 guy even though sense is much better for organizational purposes right of the bat. But the thing is, I can organize just fine with CM10, just takes a little more customization.

That's a fantastic way to put it. I'm going to try CMX and few different launches, any recommend launches, reading loads of post but personal experience is alway more valuable

I stick with Sense because Wifi-calling is a must for me, but if cm10 had that, I would definitely head in that direction.

what do you like about sense so much? the camera app?

I'm on Sense 4 and I don't plan on going to JB unless we get an official kernel or ffc is fixed.

My memory card have 15gb of full hd songs...so sense is good for me because playback of some codec in every player sucks in cmx....And the customization of viper also attracts me...so am in viper

Sense just feels more fluid and connected. For example, clock weather widget, tap on the time and it takes you straight to alarm clock,timer,stop watch. Tap the weather and you get the forecast.
To achieve the same on an AOSP Rom, needed to find a clock widget (fancy sense) then a timer and stop watch app, then a weather app and then set the widget up to open the secondary apps.

for me its the whole UI, to me it just looks good and feels fluid and fast to use. Tbh I dont use camera app at all, if I want to take a photo, I have a dedicated camera...

My whole life I've used AOSP until about 2 months ago. With sense I feel the phone is just more intact, by that I mean stuff just works. Like the kernel has no hacks or whatever, all the libs are there, all the kernel codes, hardware and software seem to cooperate more. I personally feel the sensation was meant to run sense, despite not liking the aesthetic look, everything is fluid and works wonderful
