Hi guys
I'm thinking of getting a used HTC Sensation, rooting it and upgrading to Android 6.0+ with Cyanogen. Has anyone done this?
No i don't tried it. The RAM is to little and slow for a good working Android 6 ROM i think. I use the Sensation until 2014 and i had use the ViperX Custom ROM. That is a Burner Custom ROM.
That sucks. I've got a Desire HD, which I'm only really replacing because Android 2 is insecure, and I'm really annoyed by the newer HTC phones' lack of "physical" buttons. :|

I am a huge fan of the HTC Sense UI for the Hero and I would like to have it on the myTouch. I'm looking forward to buying one soon, but I don't want to risk rooting a brand new phone. So i was wondering if the Rogers upgrade for their HTC Magic+ can be used to add Sense UI to the new myTouch.
Yes, if you make it.
make what?

Not currently. The new MyTouch doesn't really have a wide selection of ROMS at the moment. (read none...)
Once you get root, you can install the stock Fender ROM with root access or a port of an eclair ROM (st0kes_eclair.) I personally haven't used the eclair ROM as I have heard it currently has some issues.
Best bet at this point is just to wait for HTC to release the kernel so more developers can start making us some custom ROMs.

thanks vantix. but im not really looking for a custom ROM. i just want to know if the HTC Magic+ update will work on for the myTouch 1.2. You can find that update here: htc.com/ca/support/magic-rogers/downloads/
I'm sorry but it won't. Your hardware is very close, but not exactly the same as the Magic (your touchscreen differs, and you ave the 3,5 mm jack). Don't flash this, as most probably it will break your phone.
aww sad day. thanks movikun
Oooh man you don't wanna flash that htc magic+ from rogers. Trust me hahaaha. The people on rogers (such as myself) were forced to flash that (thank god I didnt) and yeah it could possibly braek your phone as well.
You currently can't even flash a custom rom over to MyTouch LE because of the drivers issues. You won't have touchscreen, etc. This is being worked on... sorta.
Since the Fender/LE is Google then you will not see HTC SenseUI on it.
To get SenseUI on your MyTouch v1.2 you will have to do some work.
Get the source from HTC and use the LE Kernel (with drivers)
Port it to a SenseUI rom OR SenseUI source.
Probably won't be worth the trouble.
Hello everybody.
I have a non-rooted HTC Desire that I have upgraded, over-the-air, to Android 2.2.
I want to get Android 2.3 on this baby as well as the latest version of HTC Sense (the one where you can shuffle screens in leap view, that has a scrollable list of last used apps in the notification bar...).
I've read a while back that someone made a HTC Desire HD ROM for the HTC Desire but that many essential features weren't working. But at any rate, the HTC Desire HD has the new HTC Sense but not Gingerbread.
I've also never rooted my phone, I'm wondering if anyone can help.
if u can wait then wait for an official gingerbrd update..
else root ur phone and search the forum for a GB rom.. u will find lots for ur phone
Hey, Yesterday i rooted my HTC Desire HD with the advanced ace hack kit which first downgraded it and then hacked it ( clockwork recovery s-off etc. ) After that i started searching for a rom thats 2.3.5 ( you konw sense stuff ) I installed cyanogenmod7 the newest and its eating my nerves, Its like holind a new device, So can someone please please point me to a official stock room 2.3.5 (4,12,x) WHICH IS ROOTED. I want all those stock themes stuff menus, way of boot etc with the root as bonus. I cant deal with all the fancy themes and 2.3.7 so i just want it to be back to normal + root.

You might wanna try out Android Revolution HD, which is as close to stock as possible, with a few improvements, and a few apps by default that are not present on the stock ROM. It's the best experience with Sense I've ever had (Because I assume you miss Sense).
I was using it on my HTC Sensation, and it's a great ROM. Heard good things about InsertCoin too, but I'm not sure if it's available for your phone...
Look up Android Revolution HD for Desire HD on xda or use the link I provided to you.
Cheers!
Been looking through the ROM's and stuff but never been so good at finding the right ROM...
Is there a ROM That has the new Sense (On the One S, and One X, saw it yesterday and it looks amazing) that is out for the Sensation XE, with everything working? Or the closest to it?
There are a couple of Sense 4.0 ROMs in the development thread. But there are bugs !!!
Why hello XDA folks. My name is Kyralik, and I have a VERY SIMPLE QUESTION that nobody seems to want to help me with. I'm going to save the sob story for another day.
I have a T-Mobile HTC Amaze 4G which I have unlocked using the Amaze All In One Kit by Hasoon2000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1493905
I am looking to replace my Stock T-Mobile Sense ROM with the VANILLA Ice Cream Sandwich ROM, a completely clean un-modified ICS 4.0.x ROM. My Amaze is currently running ICS 4.0.3 with Sense 3.6; again, the main purpose of this is to REMOVE SENSE UI, because I dislike it, and I'm a fan of the minimalism in ICS stock.
To recap, I have an HTC Amaze 4G, unlocked but not yet rooted, with ICS 4.0.3 and Sense 3.6. I would like to replace this ROM with a clean ICS 4.0.whatever. I have a Mac and a PC, access to USB, internet, all the standard stuff.
IF YOU CAN HELP ME ACCOMPLISH MY TASK, OR EVEN COME CLOSE, I WILL TRY TO HELP YOU AS BEST AS I CAN WITH ANY OF YOUR XDA-RELATED ISSUES.

Hey there, did you ever find a solution to this?
I hate Sense UI as well and am seeking a Senseless ICS ROM but have not found one yet...
