[Q] HTC One Max UI on the M8 - possible? - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I sent a question to one of my fav devs from the original HTC one - is anyone currently working on a port for the HTC One Max UI to the new M8? I have good eyes, love the smaller UI. Any ideas?

Until HTC releases a max version of sense 6, it will be too much work for any developer, will be easier is released first

I too would be interested in this, as I am not a huge fan of the large proportions of Sense (especially the icons in the status bar). That, or perhaps a working port of Paranoid Android (with the customizable DPI options), would truly make this phone golden.

So will we see 4.0.4 on the Sensation

Will HTC continue to support the Sensation with future updates to ICS or is 4.0.3 the last update we will get?

Who cares, it adds like nothing. Tmobile update is gonna be real good I think, clearly they made HTC change some stuff up since its taking so long. Its gonna be real nice methinks.
Exactly what lion said 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 is just a reallly minor update...

I don't think so. I think it's a shame but Sensation will have a One V like Sense 4.
Htc...wish they would get their $H!T in order.

Well a certain all knowing individual who shall remain nameless has posted a link to a single source saying otherwise... Apparently HTC chose that single site to spread their prophetical message of "4.0 lite".
I'm running it. See opensensation

TBH, I don't really want sense because the overall taxing of the system.
And unfortunately there isn't a bug free version of AOSP yet, so i guess the main question is if 4.0.4 used with sense will improve anything?
I donot like sens, I like CM9 best
i just got a sense4.0 rom finally and IMO the dock at the bottom looks just like the one in 3.6 so yea
I hated Sense version 3.0 and 3.6. I hated it. Did I mention I hate it?
I tried Sense 4.0 on for size and I liked it. 4.0 definitely changed my opinion of sense. It's my daily driver. I hope that BT will get fixed soon
We will get 4.0.4 with some bug fixes. However only after HTC has settled down with their One series launches worldwide. I think we will get Sense 4.0 and HTC won't leave their 2011 phone with the same Sense version as their 2010 phone cause the Desire HD will also be getting Sense 3.6.
It won't change that much with the android version.
The big deal must be done by HTC that must give a full working RUU, not a one that has still many important bugs, bugs that the Sense 4.0 Roms don't have (but they have different ones because they are portings, and that's not easy)
HTC Provided Sense 3.6 instead of Sense 4.0 because you guys should atleast get common SENSE rather than Sense4.0 buy new device to get newer softwares/UI, want an example? it's ONE V which has Sense 4.0, with hardware specs closer to Desire HD, (maybe less powerful than DHD) they launched new devices which means older ones are paper weight! I am sorry if I am so harsh..but HTC Desire Z is 1st HTC device I owned, they have completely ended its support after GB 2.3.3 update, and that's also in less than a year, look at that device Section, how active it's...Courtesy of Devs out there, people are running ICS with full hardware functions, and HTC kept users till GB 2.3.3..so that they'll buy new phones whether they have money or not...perfect business ability HTC have....so to keep it simple..through your Sensation into dustbin..forget that how expensive it was when launched..and grab new device anyhow..that's all HTC want..

Porting question

And I know this is way out there.... Ibe found dead ends and just need a definite answer. Is there any developer who's created a 3.6 Rom for the one x? Or has themed the clock widget to look like 3.6? If no thats fine just found my vivid and I kinda miss the 3D sense

I think ICS has a 3.6 custom rom. Not sure wich OneX version. Its IceCream Sandwich.
AT&T HTC OneX
Android 4.1.1
ViperXL
also if you search through android themes, theres a fellow that was creating a sense 3.6 skin that looked damn good, but it was incomplete when i came across it... it would be nice to have the look of 3.6 with the performance of the OneX w/jellybean

[Q] htc sense 5

is there any chance that we can port sense 5 after the release of htc one..............i think our sensation can handle it and will look great on qhd devices............
I hope so, that would be awesome!
It's quite difficult to port HTC sense 5 to sensation from 1x as devs vll hve to resize full sense from full hd to qhd n I dnt think they hve so much time to do that as their r more imp work for them but when it vll cum to 1s they vl give it a try...
Hope for the best but get prepared for the worst
hit thanks if I hve hlped you

What if the One S gets it? If so porting sense 5 won't be nearly as hard.
Since we haven't managed to port Sense 4 JB from the One S, I am fairly certain that Sense 5 is most likely not possible on our Sensation. Based on my experience, we can only port ROMs from devices with similar specifications (such as One S and Sensation), and in fact, most of the Sense 4 ROMs on this forum are from the One S. Given the huge differences between the new HTC One and Sensation (1080p screen versus qHD, Snapdragon 600 vs S3, etc...), the amount of effort required to create a port is simply too much, assuming that we can have all the required libraries, drivers to start with. Even the One X+ may not get Sense 5, given HTC's poor track record of updating devices.

didn't heard anything about sense 5 for htc one s yet.. but I hope that the one s will still get updates and wont become forgotten because of the newer htcs
AW: HTC Sense 5.0 rumours?
I'm quite certain as soon as the sense 5 build leaks our devs here will do a port. :thumbup: But I think that our One S won't get official sense 5 by HTC. Maybe one with less features...
based on how long it took htc/tmobile to release jelly bean. I doubt we will ever see sense 5.0. the best we can bet is having a developer to release it.
AW: HTC Sense 5.0 rumours?
I think we will get it. Our phone is just like 1 year old, there should be at least 1 update for us with sense 5. Would also be a nice move from HTC towards customers.

I'm almost sure HTC will release this for the One series devices. Soo many people use the X, XL, S, and V and are locked into contracts.
I also see no reason why they would not roll out an update. Our device is perfectly spec'ed still (even though Sense is a complete resource hog and drain) and we have plenty of room on NAND to support it. We just will have to wait about 7.6 years for HTC's slow arse (screw t-mo) to finally release it...

Before an HTC One S I had an HTC Sensation which have an hardware enough powefull to have jellybeans and Sense 4+ but HTC decide to not upgrade this device. So with the new handsets I think that HTC don't upgrade the "old" One phones

Based on this One S Ville is in a good situation though. Take a look at the pace of updating One S VilleC2
Anyway, I hope that even if we get this, the BlinkFeed will not be there..

HTC can easily said that since the phone only has 1gb of ram, it will not get it or have a slim down Sense like what they did with the older phones before One. It would be a huge mistake in my opinion either way. HTC really needs to step up and support the One series more. I feel that it gives current owner a reason to continue to purchase and recommend their products.While I realize some of the camera features may not work on the current device due to potentially lack of the needed hardware, it would still be nice if HTC will try to bring a much of the new features to older phones to finally hae a unified One series.
AW: HTC Sense 5.0 rumours?
With the release of the one series they told that they want to support their phones way better again.

I've read in german forums that the HTC One S/X/X+ will get updates in the next months which will including:
- Blink Feed
- Additional camera features
- Zoe (full automatic video editor)
- and hopefully more?
the article also says that the update will NOT include all features of Sense 5.

Ha! I told you so.
We won't get fully featured sense 5!

there will be a version of sense 5 with kitkat for this terminal?

any cook will have planned a version of android 4.4.2 with sense 5 or will be working only with the normal version of the android for this terminal?
What do you mean by normal version of Android? What do you mean by terminal?

I think he wants to know if there will be a Sense version of Kit Kat. Terminology is a bit off, but that's what I gathered.
I really don't dabble to much into Sense Roms, because I prefer AOSP, so I really don't have a good answer for you.

I highly doubt it, unless a port comes from a portable device.

mmm thanks for your answers, it seems to us the kit kat is without sense 5 for htc one x
Which devices are portable
Sent from my HTC Butterfly s using Tapatalk
The easiest to port from are devices which share the same chipset and display resolution.
Sent from my Evita
like the evo 4g lte. or the one mini. kind of curios to see what can and cant be ported. and can you port CM 10.2 to run sense or would it be easer to port from a difrent device.
it just came a few hours back on the portal that HTC one X and one X+ wont receive any further official updates.
and as far as ports are concerned we dont have any device with a similar chip set the latest desire series 500,501,700 etc have the snapdragon 400 or lower versions... the flagships like m7 and the m8 when it will release will have the snapdragon 800 version!
the s4 chipset is only available for HTC one s and ours so its highly unlikely!
well there was a port from I think the m7 or a difrent one that was 4.1.2 with sense 5 so there is a device that can be ported. I dont know how but it can be done.
Yea even sundream mentioned it ....so did zarboz
Finger crossed
