Seems fast if you not had the phone long but Sense 4 is nearly a year old.

Let's hope that someone will port this new sense into our One S... really looking forward to it.. :thumbup:

Sense5 Lockscreen and Settings page also leaked because HTC M7(4.7" 1080P with Android 4.1.2) is going to announce soon.

Bleh they kept the 3-dot menu. At least change it aesthetically, move it somewhere else or something. I know the option will probably be there to use the menu key. People complained and we got that ICS update. You'd think that'd be a flag for them to change it.

Well, honestly? Not impressed.
Yes, Im fully aware that its very early leaked pictures, and it will probably change A LOT before its released.
Still, based on those screenshots - not impressed...

That's how I feel too but still too early to rule it out. Also why was this moved to Q&A? it don't make sense here.

That's UGLY to be totally honest... I'll stick to using 4.5 thanks. Lol. In fact... Sense 5 might be the first version to actually put me off Sense. :'(

You referring to the photo in that mockup? That's looks like the Mega Boss theme. I doubt that's Sense 5 http://youtu.be/BUwpoDmvUe8
I was talking about he keyboard photo in the OP. That annoying 3-dot menu is right there at the bottom. Assuming it's for all apps as well.

The lockscreen looks quite hideous. However the Settings page and dialer looks much cleaner and less glossy.

Anyway, I think I will just skip HTC M7(still S4) and wait for the next real generation. Maybe I will stick with One S until Q2-end or Q3.
Qualcomm just said to out S5 600/800 this year and Nvidia T4 is coming soon too. They support 4k [email protected] or 2k [email protected] and HDR burst mode.

to me it seems Android is a badly optimized OS, it needs quadcores, 2Ghz, 90 GPU cores in order to run smoothly...
WP8 (Lumia 800) did it better with a singlecore CPU.
iphone does it better with an 800MHz CPU (and did it better than the rest from the beginnings of iphone)
so wtf?

Its because Android runs on so many different devices - iOS runs on 5-6 or whatever it is.
Its a hell a lot easier to optimize a program/OS for a small set of devices, than a large set.
If android-devices were stuck with a set spec, it would be much more optimized. But since there arent any such restrictions, manufactures are free to put whatever hardware they want in them.
Software developing takes a lot longer than hardware development.

[Sense 3.5] Updated with Video..

Thanks to EddyOS
I'm pretty optimistic that they'll get it right this time, considering 3.0 is few months old and they're already rushing 3.5
For me it looks like a "bad" skin
Well I kinda like it... It looks simpler, more minimalistic, and more elegant.
I'm quite surprised that HTC might change its iconic clock Widget, though. And I don't get exactly what the icons on the left might be : is this some kind of a side dock, or merely themed shortcuts?
------------------------------------
Will be ported > hopefully.
edit : no famous weather clock in 3.5?
im going to make a guess and say that Sense 3.5 is much lighter than 3.0 since it was htc who told us that because of old hardware 3.0 couldnt be ran on older devices, yet the Bliss is 800MHz ..
when i bought my sensation, i watch at plenty youtube-vids to get others thoughts about the phone. i was going to get the phone anyway, but still.
what the most of them says, ist that sense is consuming a bit too much, and only got like 100mb free ram. and after installing their apps, they said it starts getting slow.
think 3.5 is a "fix" to that, so it can compete with the speed of SGS2. (quadrant and other ****)
looks simpler, but still nice - so good job HTC if a 800Mhz can process it, then just imagine what a dualcore 1.2 Ghz can do
Strange, I'm sat here with a stock phone and about 330MB free RAM. Sense isn't using much at all.
Certainly not slow either.
Looks a bit weird...
If the 2nd picture is a screenshot of an alternate lock screen, I think that looks pretty nice. Could be a nice option to have.
Not sure I like the font, seems awfully hard to read
I kinda like it, but it is a little hard to read.

well it's in Taiwanese so yeah
As long as it looks very similar to 3.0 and is faster, I'll like it. For all I care they could keep the exact same looks and get rid of the pathetic lag inherent to Sense.
it looks fake to me...I may be wrong mind. I still won't use it, even more so if it does indeed look like that lol
It doesn't seem like much, and the notification bar still looks butt ugly. Are all the new HTC devices gonna have Sense? If so, that sucks.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
I don't understand why anyone would purchase a 5-600 phone with sense and then spend the rest of time
reducing it to a bland interface, it's a dual core soa device, that flies...buy a nexus1 or hd2 or mytouch 3g if you want purity and stock......sheeesh
Isn't Sense 3.5 for lower end devices?
The new dock seems nice. Really all I need on the dock is application access and phone. I never liked the customization options on the dock...but that's just me. I bet they have an option for the old style though.

ICS Whats all the hype?

With there being so many nice looking roms out there, whats the hype. I have read about all the features and flash but appearance it is just plain ugly... Which comes back to my question, why deal with a ugly UI for a beta bugged bunch of new features.

I don't really see how the UI is ugly. I'm using InsertCoin ICS and it seems the same except for the bottom dock in the home screen. Still has sense 3.5 but adds the features of ICS.
Sensational! Tapatalk
funny
I honestly think that all these sense roms look horrible in comparison. i think any rom I have used looks worse i am in love with the ui.
Stock ICS does look better than the one that currently leaked out!
Also..what is S3 SOC async? can you guys explain that one?
Why would you say the appearance of ICS is ugly if you're judging it based off of ROMs that have Sense? What you really mean is that you don't like the appearance of Sense, not ICS.
All the hype behind ICS is that it will hopefully allow the Sensation to make proper use of the processor for the first time. Not a single ROM, dual-core forced or with any other sort of weird bandage fix, makes PROPER use of the Sensation's dual-core. The hope is that ICS has better multi-core support than GB does and that therefore the Sensation will run better and more properly on ICS.

But will it REALLY release the power of our Snapdragon cores? I really hope it does but I worry that Googley Bear chose OMAP for the Nexus for a reason. Will there really be the necessary code in place to support all the current multi-core SoCs, or will it be added as needed for new chips going forward? Hope I'm wrong : ) It seemed to me at the press release for ICS that Google spent more time talking about the font than multi-core support.....
newer is better. you can change how the UI looks in 2 minutes.

Thanks for posting. Seems to be all over the place now, including PocketNow, Engadget etc etc.
I really hope the phone in question is running an S3 SoC like our Sensation because it looks DOG slow. I know poeple will say it's only a test build, but even so, if that's what the S4 (Krait) has to offer I'm deeply disappointed. And qHD resolution? Really? Eeeek. Why no 720p? Chip not up to it?
Apart from bluetooth 4.0, more RAM and a better camera sensor I don't see too much of an improvement in terms of hardware. Still got a big bezel. Not sure HTC are doing the right thing here - the hardware is enough of an improvement to make people who have just got a Sensation on a two year contract feel a bit frustrated, but not significant enough to make those people who are a year into a contract trade up. Hope this isn't their flagship for the MWC in Feb ; ) If this IS an S3 chip then I guess Krait must have been delayed and this is just fodder to buy HTC time. It'll be interesting to see full details at the MWC : )
Is it me or does showing off the phone's IMEI number etc seem a bit foolhardy of whoever filmed that video? Surely HTC will be able to work out who had that prototype recently and kick their butt?? Unless HTC leaked it themselves I suppose...but why would you show such laggy software?

Well, including the "working" sounds in the backgrounds. It looks like this is just recorded somewhere in a HTC office. And without him acting nervously or something might this be done on purpose? And indeed the software seems to be unfinished.
Edit: Nevermind, I just saw the software info screen in the video. If really this will be Sense 4.0 (which I doubt), I won't buy HTCs for a couple of months/years.
menu animations look laggy guessing they will improve
overall HTC ville looks kinda sensation-ish and yeah spec wise it isnt that much of an upgrade
sense 4.0 looks laggy as hell but thats how the first leaked version of ICS sense 3.5 used to be as well so i think we got nothing to worry about
cept AOSP looks hotter lol
It runs at Android 4.0.1 as you can see. Remember our Sense 3.5 builds with ICS 4.0.1? Very laggy.. like this one.
I guess we should wait for the final version and then judge.
Btw, I find it a pretty sexy device.. Thin, nice specs (although it could be better ofcourse..) and Sense
I only hope that HTC will optimize their software for the SoC's so it'll run utterly smooth.
the font on the clock widget is ugly as ****!! the corrent clock is better.

Agreed : ) Looks like some of the imitation 'sense clock' widget skins in the Market ; )
Some sites are stating that the Ville has the Krait chip in it. If that's true it's supposed to be up to 60% faster....in which case either the firmware on that device in the video is truly awful or Krait might be a let down. Really hope it has the same chip as the sensation.
Kinda weird about the screen resolution. Does that mean the Rezound went too far for the current performance of Qualcomm's SoC so HTC had to back it down a bit?
By the way, the reason I care about the lag, even in an early test build, is that I was one of those people who got bitten in the race to offer VGA screens a few years ago. At the time the hardware in my Touch Pro just wasn't good enough to push that many pixels around (vs QVGA) so I was stuck with a fairly sluggish device for a looooong time (although to his credit NRGz worked miracles with his ROMs for it : ). I can't help thinking manufacturers are in the process of doing the same to us again at the moment with the transition from WVGA to qHD and HD screens. Compared to my HD2 my Sensation is clearly faster most of the time, but in certain cirsumstances the gap feels pretty slender.
I'd love it if performance over MHL to a tv was better - it really will be great when we can truly use our smartphones as mini pcs connected to a tv/monitor at 720p+, with a bluetooth media keyboard controlling things and a Micro SDXC card with enourmous amounts of storage.

Let just use one thread

Sense 4.0 features! MUST READ.

HTC announced this week, their new Sense 4.0!
They've will be rolling out the BETA version to 300 lucky users of the HTC Sensation/XE only in the UK! (HTC Eleveate Programme)
The rest of the worlds HTC Sensation/XE users will get it by Q2 end depending on Country and Carrier! (only after MWC 2012, Barcelona. Patience...........
So, coming to the "QUIETLY BRILLIANT" specs!
1. Landscape support for the home screen.
2. Bubbly sliders have been replaced with squared buttons.
3. Sense buttons now feature descriptive text which accompanies the button icon.
4. Lock screen will be able to display task or to-do lists, favorite contacts for quick dialing and direct access to notification bar.
5. Updated email client with threaded messages and improved layout.
6. Smart Sync technology which syncs your email based on your usage habits.

HTC Sensation/XE users, if you wants to have a look at the Sense 4.0 ROM leak from HTC Endeavour (RUU), please try this ROM by TripNRaVeR HERE. But its wayy to buggy! Definitely not a daily driver, but amazing work by the Dev!
Watch the Video of the ROM linked above, HERE
HTC haven't confirmed what phone will get ICS and when!
So far, HTC Sensation/XE, HTC Evo 3D, and a few others have been confirmed.
No idea about the HTC Evo 4g, HTC Desire HD and Droid Incredible!
Thought, the new line of HTC phone from 2011 will get ICS by the end of Q3!
- BE SURE TO HIT THANKS!
More updates coming.
Intersting... Thank u
Let me summarize Sense 4.0 for those who arent sure. As you can see from the post above HTC has added even more useless "features" into the next release of Sense. It will be even more bloated, take up far more memory, and suck your battery dry faster than ever! In addition it will have lots a stupid animations that will enable you to impress little children. The worst part of it will be that Sense 4.0 will negate most of the benefits of pure ICS by layering on hot steamy piles of horse sh*t! The good news is that with Google requiring all future Android phones meet a certain standard, we will see less and less of these "enhancements" being added by manufactures and carriers. This will help stop the fracturing of Android and make it easier for developers to make apps that work across the entire platform. In addition, now that Google owns the division of Motorola that makes Android phones we will soon have a number of proper Android devices to choose from. People looking for pointless "features" and "eye candy" will still be able to get their fix of course; except going forward it will come with piece of fruit on the back of the device.

That's so true! Sense 4.0 is gonna be a 500+ MB update.
The problem is, they add more and more, keeps stacking. Which makes it bloated..
They should start over again. Its just MENU AFTER MENU AFTER MENU!
Anybody on here got it yet? @CalCi059 not trying to start a war but how do you know it has been released yet? <----- im not saying it hasnt been released would just like to know how you found out

They dont need to start over, they need to hit DELETE and stop producing garbage like Sense. They should focus on producing solid hardware like they used to, and rely on the STANDARD ICS build developed by Google. a 500mb updated??? Jesus Tap Dancing Christ thats a whole lotta crap!

Hahahahhaha! The HTC Endeavor RUU ROM was about 600 MB and the Dev striped it down to 500 MB!
Ermm...source for Sense 4.0 preview? Android 4.x surely?
As far as I'm aware the preview is for Sense 3.5(6?) and will only be open to selected (or more likely those who have an Sensation/XE) members of the Elevate program or HTC Developers in Europe.
Though I'd be quite happy to receive Sense 4.0 ahead of the One X!
Yeah, we already know about this. It's NOT Sense 4.0 but at some point in the next week a few in the HTC Elevate programme will get to receive the ICS OTA. It's NOT started yet

Yes, they mention Android 4.0 but we're not getting the new Sense before the One X

You do know that ICS will come with Sense 4.0 right?
They're gonna talk about Sense 4.0 in MWC, Barcelona. But, they are rolling out ICS + Sense 4.0 to those lucky 100, just a beta test of the ROM.

Yes, for the One X...for the Sensation we'll be getting Sense 3.5/6 (as the leaked ROMs have already shown us)
If you read the other thread on here HTC's PR has said the Sensation won't get Sense 4.0 yet. And it's more like 300 users who are in the HTC Elevate programme

You're misinterpreting and twisting news , I can give you credit for that.
BUT
There was no official announcement from HTC that we will get Snese 4.0 , Questions asked to HTC via Twitter and Facebook regarding 4.0 were ignored.
Yes they gonna talk about Sense at MWC but that doesn't mean it will come to Sensation , most likely its for Ville and Endeavor only. Maybe we will get it this fall.
I'm too lazy to search for sources for my arguments but they here on XDA
p.s. Next time please use search before posting, try to avoid MUST READ text in your titles and dont beg for "Thanks"

Not yet no. If they had there'd be a lot more talk about it. It's meant to start this week but no news as yet
