Hey i have a question.. is the new sense 3.5 coming too for the HTC Sensation?
As it's aimed at lesser powered devices I'd say no but you never know
Surely it must work, I wish I knew how to resize the files from the new DHD rom and try to port it over.
Yeah, just seen the DHD Bliss-based ROM. Ideally we'd need to wait for another qHD device to be released to get it. Or that new 4.5"-screened HTC Android phone announced recently (like the Titan)

i thought titan was gonna have wp7?
maybe the revamped sensation will have it, but it wont really matter to me because i like senseless better
It is, but I'm sure I've heard there's gonna be another Android handset the same size. Could be wrong, mind
EDIT: The Holiday is 4.5" but leaks so far show Sense 3.0
The only thing I'm interested from in Sense 3.5 is the new Notes widget. That looks slick.
of course it will come out
Yeah, I'm sure it will come out, we have an excelent development team here
Most likely
What files would er need to port and how do you resize them to fit sensation ? I know that the HTC apks are needed but what other files are needed......libs etc?

There is a light version for underpowered devices, there's also a full version for high end devices, the htc rhyme comes with the simplified version, while the runnymeyde(or whatever its called) comes with the full sense
This is the runnymede rom

Hopefully, there will be an HTC/carrier release with an upgrade to Sense 3.5!

mmeyer4663 : there wont be a 3.5 for sensation as this rom is made for the lower end htc devices .. we should expect something better
fishluke : it actually looks and feels good on my Desire S
I would think you need 3.5 Framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk for it to work and if your changing them, you need to change the whole rom

Not really - I already merged all changes from 3.5 com.htc.resources to 3.0 resources and same with Rosie, then compiled all stuff against new merged com.htc.resources. New framnework works perfect, but the issue at this stage seems, that apk´s also ask for shared m.10`s from sense 3.5, which aren`t compiled correct as in previous 3.0 versions. I`m working on it, but that might be a dead end...
I still hope seo will also have a look, since he`s really good, but if I`m right, then the only chance is, that diamondback and flemmard can beat the issues on latest Sense ROM`s (2.3.5 and Sense 3.5).

Wow, no disrespect to any devs working on this but thats ass backwards. The high end devices sporting sense 3.0 should have been first to get sense 3.5. Dont know how it got to the HD2, even though thats an awesome device that i had twice. How did 3.5 skip the best of the best?

I agree with you! I think it would easier to change 3.0 to 3.5 than 2.x to 3.5 but i"m not a dev.

3.5 Has never been officially released. Every rom that is built with Sense 3.5 is a port of either the HTC Bliss or the HTC Runnymede, which aren't even releasing until late this year to early next year. Those leaks are natively WVGA, hence the reason why they are being ported to WVGA devices. Sensation & Evo 3D are qHD, which may be the reason devs are holding out for a qHD release.

The main reason why 3.5 won't make it to 3.0 devices, besides resolution, is 3.5 is designed for lower end, less powerful devices. They didn't 'skip' us, they just made a lighter version of Sense for a different class of phones.

3.5 isn't "designed for lower class phones" it's optimized for better resource management, which is why it runs better than the qHD ports for our phones (I'm still on evo) 3.5 has a lot of upgrades and enhancements and y'all will get an official release of it too.

Yeah exactly, better resource management essentially means - make the best out of less ram/slower cpu which = different class of phones. Also, this is the Sensation forum, so we don't run qHD ports, they are native. Of course a Sense 3.5 wvga port will run better on your evo4g - less memory, slower cpu, same resolution...it's made for those specs, albeit newer hardware but nonetheless.
I highly doubt that the Sensation will receive an upgrade to 3.5, especially after all the hype about the animations, i just can't phathom why they would totally change the UI like that so soon after all the work behind 3.0. I have a feeling htc will just have different versions of Sense for different phones, not like they've never done that before (cough mt4g and mt3gs).

Update on Android Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades
by HTC on Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 5:04pm ·
HTC has been working hard to get its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re excited to announce that our first round of ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of March for the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation 4G and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon there after by the HTC Sensation XL.
In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this year to the HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks.

This may have just been added to Facebook but if you had scrolled down you would've seen this has already been posted.
At least it's confirmed now

YES!
I TAKE back ALL I *****ed about HTC earlier
Thank you!!
I can't wait for the custom ROM fun to begin all over again!
Now we no longer need to rely on the XL ports!

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so happy right now. Saw the post on twitter and went crazy. After faulty eMMC's, locked bootloaders and no updates, i was thinking of going samsung next time. Not gonna happen.
HTC, learning from their mistakes.
EDIT: Just read that the Sensation will get it by the end of march, and the XL soon after. Then, probably the Evo 3D will follow. Our device should be the first among single core family (DHD and IS, not Sensation XL) to get the update, like it got the 2.3.5 Sense 3 update. I believe it would be close to late April/early, May. So it's gonna be quite a long wait. But better late than never
I'm amazed...... Wow, never expected this! Glad its confirmed.

Seems a long way off, but like you say, better late than never
I'm sure there will be a leaked ROM for the us, DHD, IS, XL, and it could be easily ported
THing is, it won't ship with Sense 4.0, but instead 3.6
Bit sad....
It's kind of like the original Desire upgrade. It got the Gingerbread update, but HTC chose not to update the Sense version to 2.1.. THey kept the old version (Maybe because of internal memory issues?)
THat was kind of a rubbish update IMO.
Hopefully our update turns out to be good!
We really don't need to care of Sense 3.6 or 4.0. Even the update isn't important. What's important is the kernel 3.0 that will accompany it, and it's source. After that, a Sense 4 port should be easy. It'll be just like what we have now - official Sense 3 and ported Sense 3.5, both on Android 2.3.5
Maybe we get lucky and get Sense 4 right away, who knows. All i know is, HTC won my loyalty with this.

Yeah
Thats the main reason I'm happy too
I have no intentions of using the official update itself. I'm just interested in getting the base for this ROM & the kernel source. From there devs can tweak the base (Lowveld ) And the ROM will be much better
Hopefully HTC still release a WVGA device that will come with Sense 4.0 (although it seems unlikely)
Because the ROM will need resizing the images etc, which is not a easy and perfect job.
Virtuous Unity was a great job by the team, they resized the Sensations qHD Sense to work on our device. But unfortunately it still had flaws, inconsistent size issues, & wasn't as fast as the WVGA version we have now...
Anyway, enough of my rambling, I'm really happy with HTC's decision! They are even supporting the DHD which is a 2 year old phone.
Seriously, that device is lucky! It went from 2.2 + Sense 2.0 > 2.3.3 + Sense 2.1 > 2.3.5 + Sense 3.0 > 4.0.X + Sense 3.6/4.0
2 major OS updates and 3 major Sense updates! Thats as good as Apple with their iPhone 3GS updates!
One thing i did notice, was they haven't announced any plans to upgrade the HTC Flyer to ICS...
I was considering buying one if it did get the update officially

i know it was already posted,but this is the first htc themselves have said on it rather than some random website.so this deserved its own thread
Crazy news. Keeping my desire s a tad longer then...
I also think this is great news, as I am not much for rooting and doing stuff to my phone. And better late than never.
BUT I think the main problem is that all the big phone producers have their own UIs on top of Android, meaning that we never get the updates OR really really late.
If they just would let google control updates, then all users would have ICS already on their phone regardless of brand and phone (overseeing old phones that cannot handle the new software).
I know that the big companies need to differentiate themselves from each other.. but still, just what I would prefer.
Waiting for HTC Sense on ICS
I dont know about you guys but I am pretty happy with HTC Sense and would love to have an ICS rom with Sense. Will wait for the update from HTC to try out ICS on my Desire S.
I just got a good reason to keep my desire s for another 6 months.
That guy who came out earlier and say he believes all the phones running gingerbread should be able to run ICS was right after all.

Actually, this was relevant, but a month ago. Now, everything you will see about the update in the General section will be re-posts or "information leaks on ETAs" from highly unreliable sources.

There are no leaks - so I fear that the update is far away.
in former times the ROMs always "leaked" (aka ROM for beta testers) 1 month before the official releases...
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.
7. Reader feature in browser strips away ads and other useless web clutter.
8. Read/Watch Later feature in browser saves content in a widget which can be accessed at a later time (even offline).
9. Guest Mode Scene disables phone functionality and access to personal data.
10. Beats Audio profile updated to work with third-party applications.
11. Full DropBox integration with 50GB of free cloud storage.
12. HTC Speak. Yes, much like Apple's Siri.

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!

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!

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

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

http://www.droiddog.com/android-blo...t-be-receiving-full-sense-4-instead-lite-3-6/
I still think it'll come. HTC said the same thing about Sense 3.0 last year. Besides, the One V can run Sense 4...so can the Sensation.
"Considering that a phone like the Sensation (which features a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 768MB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage), can’t run Sense 4 smoothly, it’s better this way."
Wow, are you serious? CAN'T RUN SENSE 4.0 SMOOTHLY!? I call BS, the new One series has specs close to the Sensation and your telling me it cant run smoothly? smh. And i thought they said 4.0 was supposed to be lighter? da fuq.
thats why theres roms
From the original source of this story, Recombu.com, via phonearena.com, via droiddog.com:
**Update**
We've just received this written statement from HTC
"HTC Sense brings a variety of new software enhancements to HTC One, some of which utilize the latest hardware innovations, meaning not all functionality can be introduced to older HTC Devices. With that said, we are looking to bring a Sense 4 software update that includes as many of the enhancements as possible to a variety of our new devices."

I remember them saying that Sense 3.5 would only be usable on dual core phones which was not true at all Had a Mytouch 4g running a Sense 3.5 rom with no bugs and great speed
plus its time consuming for them to update "old phones"
Plus, remember that the new camera features are a big part of Sense 4, which probably requires hardware that only the One series has (what they refer to as the "latest hardware innovations"). They would have to take that out before giving Sense 4 to our phones, which would take time away from the more important task of getting the One series ready for sale.
HTC never said themselves that the Sensation can't run it smoothly, that was just the website's assumption. It doesn't necessarily rule out us getting Sense 4 eventually, but I would not expect it to come anywhere near, and certainly not before, the release of the One series.

Yeah I remember that part, HTC said something about special imaging chip that allows to capture images during videos. I think that requires specific hardware.
Still they can upgrade software part of other things that dont depend on hardware, like new Sense launcher , themes etc.
Other option is that HTC probably knows that devs gonna port it anyways so they might as well let community to tinker with it
i don't htink so...it will come this summer or later but it will....
IMO
It will come with everything in 4.0 except the 25GB dropbox and new camera features.

"Considering that a phone like the Sensation (which features a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 768MB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage), can’t run Sense 4 smoothly, it’s better this way."
Wow, are you serious? CAN'T RUN SENSE 4.0 SMOOTHLY!? I call BS, the new One series has specs close to the Sensation and your telling me it cant run smoothly? smh. And i thought they said 4.0 was supposed to be lighter? da fuq.

Sensation specs close to the One? What have you been smoking? lol...it has much newer chipset technology, and will sh*t all over the Sensation crappy chipset....
the_scotsman, you just ninjad me...
Krait > Scorpion by far, just look at the Nenamark2 results:
HTC Sensation: ~44 FPS (avg, trying to eliminate custom roms).
HTC One S: 59.4 FPS limited by 60 FPS, i.e. this test does not utilize this chip's full power.

As i saw on some videos on youtube. One V has 3.6 Sense, it looks the same as the 4.0, but there is no 3D effects in Sense launcher, that's the only thing i saw that is different than One S and X.
Let's start trolling on HTC like Desire users did

OMG I cant run sense 4.0 on my N95 or my samsung d500 or my sony tv nor does my iphone. do you hear my complian about that..No and i tell you why
personally couldnt care if my sensation is running sense 4.0 sense 3.0 or sense 2.1. what i want is a phone i can make calls on and send texts.. have a screen that doesnt have a green hint on it when it comes to take a picture..
companys make money by bring out new stuff on there new phones what i think HTC is doing wrong is not fixing the problems with there old phones before bringing out a new phone..
Im sure some smart Dev with bring out sense 4.0 oneday for the sensation but are you really going to bycot HTC for wanting to make money....
