Sense 6 - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I haven't seen a topic on this but does anyone else miss sense 5? It just felt better, and seemed cleaner in my opinion. The choice of colors for the themes are questionable and it just feels heavier and more bloated like how sense 4.5 was. Any thoughts? Am I wrong? I dislike it so much considering going back to my DNA. Any thoughts?

God no. Sense 6 is way better.

{REQ/QUESTION} HTC Sense 3.0

Is anyone working on a Sense 3.0 ROM for the G2X? I've already seen it running beautifully on the MT4G
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Nope no development. And likely wont see one. Asking for a sense rom on a non htc phone is blasphemy.
Sense is slow and useless imo

I agree...I like stock a lot better than any skin, even HTC Sense. Either way, I haven't heard anything about a Sense ROM for the G2X yet. Maybe when official Gingerbread comes out and development (hopefully) picks up again someone will port or start making a Sense ROM.

This. The Sensation, which has stronger hardware, is slower than the g2x. That's all you really need to know about Sense.

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!

GO Weather has a widget that can be skinned to look exactly like HTC and yet is free. Has other skins too, and even a live wallpaper that changes based on the weather.

All I want is the lock-screen, unless someone has advice for something similar for a rooted stock G2x.
Until we get drivers for gingerbread, a lot of ports are just not going to happen. Once lg/nvidia releases what we need, you'll be able to port anything over within reason. (On my old hd2 I had sense 3.0 running perfectly. And it's hardware specs were a lot lower than this. AND it ran well. Just needs quite a bit of tweaking.)
Seems like no one has come accross MIUI lol. THAT is the best ever. Hands down.

Sense or no sense

So I'm so confused .
I come from using an iPhone .
HTC sensation is my 1st android phone and i love it.
I have rooted and started messing with all the roms.
I don't understanc why everyone hates the sence UI. ??
I love it.
Nonsense is boring and plain .
Can someone plz explain to me why everyone wants a none sence rom.
I am using RCmix and its quick and fast even with a sense UI.

It's bloated and takes up more RAM. The visual appeal does not make up for its relatively poor performance compared to AOSP ROMs.
Ahh can't wait to use an aosp apps and roms

Its not as customizable as I like. I like having a dock with 4 apps that I can change and I also like having the ability to change my icons so I use ADW. Purchase ADW EX from the market and you will not be disappointed. Its like having a grand new phone. It will be the fastest thing you've ever seen. Sense has too much eye candy which makes the UI nit as fast as it could be.

It's not that people hate it, it's a very nice UI, but it lags a lot especially on the sensation. Sense takes up to much memory.

You are correct, except the excellent performance of the GS2 comes in a pathetic, cheap candy plastic shell. Personally I got the Sensation because I was a fan of the design, and have a preference for LCD over AMOLED screens.
No phone will be all things to all people The first thing I did was stick LauncherPro on the Sensation. My stock ROM (Telstra version) was horribly laggy, and performance way under what I expected. Now at least it's fluid enough for everyday use.
YMMV of course, but Sense 3.0 to me is way too heavy on the eye-candy and doodads, while offering little in terms of an upgrade over 2.1. The lockscreen is its one redeeming feature

Galaxy S2 - $800+ , have to import, who knows about warranty.
Sensation - $150 with contract, available in store, warranty.
I bought Sensation because of it's hardware and looks. Stock build is utter disappointment to me. I will happily admit that I had less lag with my single core MT4g with stock rom or CM7 rom and, IMHO, Sense 3.0 it it's current form is the only thing to blame.
For me, Sensation without Sense is just not right. I'm not exactly sure what people mean by lags. I've tried AOSP and MIUI roms and in all honesty, the difference between them and Sense is hardly noticeable. On a beast like the the Sensation, now that we have root and S-off there shall be cooked roms with Sense that will simply fly. In any case, the polished look of Sense 3.0 and its fantastic widgets are simply worth any so called lags, which I am yet to experience, from HD2 Android, Desire HD and now Sensation.

I know I'm not along when I say I like pretty much everything about Sense except the launcher. Luckily that's the easiest thing to change and you don't even need root. I installed launcher pro day 1 and still get to enjoy the sense lock screen, dialer, etc.
No Sense for me is like Non-sense

Sense roms are usually well over 200mb. With Sense you're lucky if you have 100mb of free ram with no other apps running.
AOSP roms are usually around 100mb. With cm7 I have 280mb of free ram with XDA app in the background.
AOSP roms fly compared to Sense and I actually prefer the ui of pure Android.

No matter how much the devs optimize sense it will still be much slower, far more bloated and barely customizable in comparison. Having some cute weather animations isn't worth it to many of us who bought it purely for the hardware specs knowing that as soon as root came around sense would be happily replaced with a AOSP ROM.
Coming from an iPhone I can see why you prefer a lack of customization in place of a little eye candy. It's what you're used to and your preference. Some people buy Porsche for its 0-60 time and others because of those sexy curves, It's just preference.

I thought about getting a HD2 just for the large display.
i hate sense, it just doesnt not look current. It looks like it was design in 2005 which probably was.... First thing i do on an android phone is put launcher pro... The performance changed completely. I cannot wait to put CM7 on mine because even with sense on this thing and launcher pro its still not as smooth as my Nexus one was...

I like Sense, it doesn't give me bad performance, and it looks nice.
Please go somewhere else where people want to hear your bull****.
A sense ROM would probably be a refreshing change from the currently overloaded AOSP based ROMs (not complaining).
Mainly one that's based on sense 3.0. I've seen sense 3.0 ROMs in the desire forums and they look really good. It would be nice to see one for the Nexus.

Im using jelly bean on my old nexus.

I have to say jelly bean blows this sense bs out of the water. I cant wait to have it on my one x, mostly just to use Google now. Its so nice and fast and actually useful. I can set all my alarms without even looking at the phone!
Holding out for source code. Hopefully it will comes quickly. Having come from several previous htc devices, I should be used to this long wait for source bullshhh by now.

Really, setting your alarms without looking at the screen? To be perfectly honest it doesn't seem all that beneficial.

I would kill to have stock jelly bean working on the one x. I'm starting to really dislike sense because of it's memory hogging. I can't think of a single feature it adds to stock android other than the ability to remove some home screens.

Because a lot of us are just in it for the hardware. I don't want a Nexus (though I have been quite tempted) in fact, the ROM I *want* to use is MIUI. However, since we do not yet have kernel source that is not 100% ready for me and I also don't want to lose the Sense burst camera.
I don't hate Sense, in fact it was my first Android experience (HTC Aria) when I first switched to CyanogenMod, I thought "Where did my beautiful clock and Facebook widget go?!"
Then I got over it. If one doesn't take advantage of a majority of the things that Sense has to offer, they simply have no reason to keep it on their phone. I fall into that category.
I promise, if there had been a version of the HTC One X without Sense, I would have grabbed it in a heartbeat. It's the most beautiful phone screen I have ever used, and I like the general design. My only complaint is no memory card slot.
What you're saying is: If you don't like Touchwiz, don't buy Samsung. If you don't like Timescape, don't buy Sony. If you don't like Sense, don't buy HTC, and if you don't like Blur, don't buy Motorola.
It isn't that simple because some of us dislike them all. I happen to fall into that category, but if I have to pick my poison it is definitely Sense.
We buy the phone despite Sense because we know that there will eventually be the opportunity to remove it.
It's great hardware, and Android devices are rarely stuck on the manufacturer's software
Thanks. That sir is a good answer. Ive been asking people y they would buy a phone knowing its sense, and then complain about it. Just funny 2 me ya know. ;-) but i got flamed for asking the question...........even got called a troll!! Ha ha ha!!!!! Funny!!!!!

Same here. This is the sexiest device on the market by far. A little low on the internal storage, but this is like saying a 10/10 drop dead gorgeous model isn't any good because her titties are only a B cup.
I was hoping we'd have the kernel source by now so we could get some real custom ROMs on here and not just modded stock ROMs. I do appreciate the mods and hacks but I'm talking about CM9, AOSP/AOKP, etc. Very disappointed with HTC because of their constant neglect. Almost thinking of selling this device and getting a Galaxy Nexus again.

Same as posted before, I bought it because it was priced well, and I don't care for any manufacturer overlay tbh. My first android was the original evo, loved it, but then I found cyanogenmod, and loved it even more. That's what's great about android you can get custom roms, and have it the way you like it.
Also sense has changed a lot lately it use to be able to multitask just like default android, but HTC in sense 4 changed that which, imo, is a reason to be able to complain. Why change something that never had a peoblem.

Thanks I don't really think there is anything wrong with Sense 4.0 in fact, I like it. I just know that I don't use it.
I'm going to use Apex or Nova Launcher for sure (I frequently swap between the two) then I lose the Sense widgets.
I would rather use Widget Locker so the Sense lockscreens (despite being pretty cool) become useless. (Not using WL now though because of the multitouch issue it causes)
People just want to get the extra memory it uses back. You're right though, Sense 4.0 is pretty nice in my opinion. Not really much to not like, but if you don't use it it turns into wasted resources.
and I think everyone has to admit, the Sense camera is delightful

I like Sense better in regards to "out of the box", however, until HTC starts putting decent sized (removable) batteries on their Verizon phones..... Well, I now own a Samsung.
Now that I took the leap to root and customize it a bit more, I may change my mind about which I prefer later. I'm not a fan of "stock Android", but Touchwiz seems to offer a little bit of both worlds.

I like Sense better in regards to "out of the box", however, until HTC starts putting decent sized (removable) batteries on their Verizon phones..... Well, I now own a Samsung.
Now that I took the leap to root and customize it a bit more, I may change my mind about which I prefer later. I'm not a fan of "stock Android", but Touchwiz seems to offer a little bit of both worlds.

Never EVER thought I would hear someone say TW is better...Lol I think it's just inherent to all phone owners to hate whatever ui is on their device and want the others.

Yeah same here. I'll admit Sense can be laggy, and the huge previews for app switching is silly, but TW is an eyesore, Sense looks loads better in my opinion.
Then again I started out with an HTC phone and have stuck with them so, there's that.
Came to sammy from an OG Evo and sprints crappy ass service, I too lean towards sense, I just use go launcher with sense 4.0 theme and android pro widgets, I swear its almost an exact clone except I can't find a sense 4.0 clock.
