[Q] Cyanogenmod 9 for HTC Inspire 4G?

Where can I find updates for the HTC Inspire for being updated on CM9? I love CM and am running 7.2 RC2. I would be happy even if this release candidate was a stable release because it's very smooth and I have had no problems, but I really want ICS!! CM9 when will you come out, or when will a stable release come out with ICS and preferably Sense 4.0??

OK first off If you knew anything about CM then you would know NEVER to ask for ETAs. Next you will also know that you will never see a CM rom with Sense. Also there are stable releases of ICS. None of them are 100% nor will they be until HTC releases the kernel source which is not until July or Augest.

Wrong section.

[Q] What was last release of Gingerbread-based MIUI?

I'm currently running the latest release of ICS -based MIUI (2.6.22) on my Desire S having previously run a Gingerbread based MIUI on a Desire HD. That's was awesome so I installed 2.6.22 on my new Desire S but I just can't get on with the ICS versions of MIUI as they're still too laggy/buggy (apologies to the Dev's who I know are workin').
I'd like to install the very last Gingerbread-based version of MIUI (which I'm assuming is mega stable) until the ICS versions are fully sorted. Can anyone remember which version of MIUI this was? I'm assuming it's still available on goo.

MIUI 2.4.20 is the latest gb.
It's not perfect (graphics) but other than that, everything is working.

Are there other earlier releases which are better than 2.4.20 or is this the best Gingerbread Miui rom? I just assumed that the last release would be the best. I'm just looking for the best Gingerbread Miui to run until ICS rom's are up to speed.

http://bigota.d.miui.com/2.4.13/miui_DesireS_2.4.13_s9ol1csxlx_2.3.zip
This download address is the Chinese version of the MIUI 2.4.13, based on android 2.3.7.
Only Chinese and English.

I'd say you assumed right.
Although I did run 2.4.13 for quite some time.

[Q] Why don't we have a stock vanilla ics rom on this phone?

I come from using a nexus one, and before that a g1, so I am used to having vanilla android on my phone or at least having the option to have it. I bought the one S when my phone broke down thinking that the htc sense UI would not be such bad thing. However after a few weeks I still can't seem to get used to it and actually have grown to hate it. I installed a rom that doesn't have most of sense but it still doesn't have the same feel. So getting to my question, why isn't there a rom that is just plain ics without sense. Will this ever be available?
Also kind of off topic, but why was sense ever created? I understand that htc wanted to put a twist on android but wouldn't it be enough to create the apps and widgets? I feel like some of the key features of android are lost and for little gain. What is going to happen when jelly bean rolls out? Will one S owners have to wait more while htc tweaks it to work with sense again? I have gotten really used to the hardware aspects of this phone but I am contemplating switching over to a galaxy nexus just for the benefit of having vanilla android and having more development support.

Have you tried CM9 or Paranoid?

They are not AOSP, they are based on it. And heavily modded. This dude just wants AOSP.

aren't they all based on Sense kernel? which beats the purpose of it all.

Idk man... I'm new to this phone, but I know my phone is now on Android 4.0.4, and there isn't a single hint of sense ANYWHERE in the ROM. I also had to flash a different kernel so I would be willing to bet its not on the stock kernel

that differen kernel is still based on a heavy "sensed" one by HTC. easily tested by it's multitasking ability or lack thereof. i don't think anybody "de-sensed" it completely yet.
HTC One S via XDA

CM9, AOKP and Parandroid are not sense Based. Ohe kernel is not sense based. a good example is MIUI, there are 2 MIUI builds, one is AOSP based (based on CM9) and the other one is sense Based.
Want proof by your own? flash CM9 or AOKP and flash a sense kernel on top of it and try to boot the phone. you will get a boot loop.
CM9 is the closest you will get to an AOSP pure vainilla rom since is based on it.

You guys on the first page must be pretty challenged... CM9, AOKP, and PARANOID are based off the the CM9 source. They have NOTHING to do with Sense. The only Sense based ROM (not stock ROMs, IE TrickDroid) is one version of MIUI as it has the stock Sense camera and such...
Sense was created because it's what HTC wanted. Why is there TouchWiz, Moto Blur, or anything else like that? It's because the device manufacturers wanted their own version. Thank the dev team for the option to switch different version of Android... We will only have AOSP ROMs and not ever stock ICS (no mods) ROMs because there is no stock ICS for our device. Only Sense or AOSP.

That's really funny that you're calling him out when CM is definitely not stock vanilla ics.

So, the easiest answer to this question is because no one, including the OP, has created one yet, if its even possible with what there is to work with.
I'm actually pretty happy with all of the options devs have created for this phone.

only "nexus" phones have vanilla ics

Not as funny as you saying CM9 is not aosp. It is built from aosp and made to look look and act like aosp. Don't understand you fools?????

He never said that. Relax, man. The OP is just commenting on how he's tired of Sense and would prefer a more vanilla experience.

What does "stock ICS" actually mean in this context? AOSP is the true Android experience as Google intended, right? So, is stock ICS something else?
So we can get:
AOSP - original;
AOSP - customized;
Sense - original (default)
Sense - customized.
Is this correct?
Wouldn't we be able to get TouchWiz ROMs, for example?
I'm new to flashing ROMs and all, but I've been following the scene for the past few months, and even though I can say I'm among the brighter people, I still have difficulties understanding - mostly - the nomenclature of the scene.

We don't have it because is EVIL. That stupid google search gadget permanently stuck to all pages is ridiculously stupid. Plus indeed a lot of the interface. HTC Sense is like a cool breeze.

well i come from HTC Sensation ROMS, and in that sections there are a lots of "Senseless ROMS" where everything related with sense is removed, except for the camera, and the roms were so smooth and as fast as AOSP ROMS, the feeling was exactly the same,
I hope someone make a senseless rom for HTC One S soon because its really awesome (like a AOSP rom without any bug becaus its based on a sense rom byt without any sense part)

There are AOSP roms; they are just in the alpha stage of development and rather buggy in some areas. If you want a senseless ROM (as in the actual sense launcher removed), any of the HTC-based roms (including stock, non-rooted phones) can have Sense removed and replaced by any launcher from the market. I've tried the existing AOSP roms, and aside from the bugs... the stripped down HTC-roms as just a quick.

What's up with HTC based MIUIv4?

Hey guys, I've installed the latest ICS MIUI which seems to be based not on AOSP but on an HTC based (alas about +200mb in size) which leaves some HTC sense features behind (like magnifier, camera) personally i think this is the best thing that ever happened XD it's so stable and stuff and it even has internet passthrough! ouo
So what's up with that? i thought HTC's bases weren't as open as to lay out a whole MIUI flavor on them? is this gonna be the norm from now on? (i really hope so!)
Thanks! ouo

Recently (since ICS) all official Chinese MIUI ROMs are being based on stock ROMs (TouchWiz, Sense etc) instead of AOSP (like CM9). This is because it's more stable this way. Still, unofficial builds like the JB ones from MIUI.us are based on JB since there will likely be no official updates

One word, aosp based are better, htc based are them being lazy and packing changes to official builds.

So, if I get this right, from now on MIUI will be not much more than a few cosmetic changes and a different launcher, with no real "progress" between HTC releases? Sounds like a dead end to me...

So true, But, there is not yet 'very stable ICS AOSP ROM' for saga
I really miss your MIUIv4 build, a lot of customization I can do, I hope you will make a build again if there is Stable ICS AOSP

can you release the Kenel patch for this ROM.

Sense based MIUI?? :D

I love MIUI rom so much, but I also love sense camera.
I am no devs, but was wondering if there are any devs who is willing to develop this rom? Considering MIUI v5 is coming soon for One X

The only way you can do a sense based miui is if its ICS. Which isn't worth trying, or if we port from a jb sense miui.. Which I don't know if there are any. Haven't looked into it.
And they mean the international One X. No love for this phone

There was a Sense-based ICS miui thread that was pretty active a while back.
Edit: Found it, but the Sense-based version is no longer linked.

No, it was the original miui thread that linds started. For a while, IIRC, she had it on a Sense base.

How come it has to be ICS? Since the sense source is available, the 3.17 from telus. Im just doing wild guessing, will that be enough?

Port? So, that mean we need similar devices that already has Sense based MIUI JB, such as HTC EVO 4G?
