hi, my mums has a legend on vodafone, and she recently got an update..
the reason i am a bit jealous is because it seems to be faster than my phone! a desire!
when she clicks on an app or something there is like a zoom animation when it opens the app, which looks really nice and smooth..
i checked me settings for animations and it says all animations shown.. but i dont get that, does anyone know how to do it?? or if it can..
thanks..
for some reason you don't get those zoom transition animations with HTC Sense turned on. But if you install a different launcher (like Launcher Pro) you do get the animations.
Trust me, or not... but unless you have done something really strange, your desire is notably faster than her legend.

Not for my girlfriend whose hands are too small to use the Desire. For her the Legend is better
sense is turned on on the legend
this legend was always slower than my desire, it then got the 2.2 update, and it was still not as good, but ever since its latest update, it is imho smoother than my desire and those animated transitions look suavvvvvve!!!
i want this sense on my desire!! it is a vodafone legend, mine is a stock desire, with latest stock rom, nothing fancy done to it!
The other half has a legend and with the latest update and it seems Vodafone have really got the phone working smooth.
Of course its not as nice as the desire, but it is a vast improvement that has def closed a lot of the gap between the 2 handsets.
Just need voda to work their magic on the desire now
ye the only thing is some of the live wallpapers are slow, but i really want those transition effects....
what u think of this?

Seriously?
You do realize that the HTC Legend runs HTC Sense? We already have a great theme for that. It's called HTC Sense and it comes with every HTC Hero out there.

yes iknow that but i would like to have the ui in settnings and like friendstream
watch video "Hands-on with the HTC Legend and the aluminum unibody" on youtube
Any 2.1 rom should have that menu and the friendstream is an app when someone gets hold of the .apk for it then that should be possible as well.
thanks for the infO

We won't be able to theme something like FriendStream, but like mentioned above, there will be an APK for it.
Within minutes of the Legend being released we will have a system dump. It won't be long.
I am also waiting a lot for the dev's to get the ROm of the HTC Desire and Legend and adapt it for Hero!
I am so excited to get all these new features ( i don't care about the stupid pinch to see desktops, but the copy-paste , Bluetooth audio on 2.1 ROM, the new contact widgets, etc..)
Villain is really nice but still buggy and i am sure it will get really better when he will get the Legend/Bravo sources!
im hoping its soon its a really nice UI !!
I'm looking forward to this as well. Does villain have good 3d gaming? i havent tried his yet because of this.

You do know we can already copy and paste don't you? Bluetooth audio works on some 2.1 roms already and so does the new contact widget and even pinch zoom on desktop. Currently the only real thing we are missing is the friend stream.

No it does have problems with this but that's more due to the files we have available than how he has made the rom, we need a more complete htc 2.1 rom before this will work properly

He won't get the Legend/Bravo sources! Android 2.1 is already available AOSP, and the HTC stuff is closed source.
To be honest, I rather expect the Hero update to be pretty much everything that will be on the Legend, so the real issue here is which will come first - the Legend or the Hero 2.1 update?

Dave

He probably meant that the copy and paste feature have been much improved since 1.5, if you watch the presentation of the new HTC phones.
In about a month, we're getting the same Sense update..
For the who wants to know:
The new ROM is already compiled for the Nexus one and works 99%.
I really hope that once it's OK for the N1, we will get it for the Hero!
Thank to Paul from Modaco: http://android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/302822/loading-up-the-desire-rom-on-the-nexus-one-my-findings-so-far/
This doesn't make any since because you want a 2.1 sense ROM that will also be given to the Hero?
The work making a rom based off of the Legend is pointless since it would be the same thing your getting.

Exactly, people don't seem to be understanding this point.
Also about 80-85% of the features are also available on custom roms (albeit maybe a little buggy until we get the real thing)
Just wanted to let you guys know that the site is already working. Enjoy it.
Thx, I will try it now.

Only has options for Desire Z and Desire HD... not Standard Desire
they said that first supported devices would be those, we will have to wait
Well but since i have a desire hd rom in my desire i already tried it. Kinda cool ringing the phone and knowing where it is thru the site... also i can see missed calls and incoming messeges. Htc scores again
"Desire" is what started it all, they should have enabled it for the standard desire first
Needs Sense 2.0 to work, the HD and Z have HTC Hub apps in them which connect to HTCSense.com
Fingers crossed for the next OTA for original Desire to have Email fix for Hotmail EAS and Sense 2.0 then...
has it been said us Desires users will get it?
I've read at several sites that HTC have confirmed that the original Desire will get Sense 2.0 in a OTA update soon... I really hope it's true... But I won't cry if we don't get it because I think Sense already rocks the way it is! and if I ever get sick of it there are always alternatives like launcher pro and etc...

I don't know where you get this from, but in fact some people are already running the desire hd with sense 2.2 on their original desires. Can't see why an official update for the Desire "won't fit"

Probably because they
1. are using the sd card to install the ROM
2. have removed a bunch of useful/needed stuff (like 4 from 5 sense themes) to make it fit in the device itself.
I hope we can get a custom rom that will integrate Sense 2. I don't need the official OTA. Community ROM's are far better. Would like to see a new LeeDroid with Sense 2.
Of course they could get sense 2 to fit on, this is HTC, the company that can pull rabbits from out of their arses. It doesn't have to be the same version as the HD, but supporting htcsense.com would be magic!
i've sense hd......contact,messages and foot print work.....positioning ring and block doesn't work......someone ave this working??

ok - not to be a **** or anything but this begs the question:
Why do you WANT blur on your phone? Everyone i know with a blurred motorola phone struggles to make it blurless and wants to remove that crap as much as possible - it is a serious detriment to performance and battery life.

yea im aware of the many issues, i still have alot of work left with this rom, about landscape mode it should be working just fine even with the keyboard out, also the browser im not sure as i havent fixed wifi so i cant use the internet on the rom. And yes i figured gps was not working again iv got no internet so i have no way of fixing that, i need wifi for that XD. anyways im glad you guys like it.

Because this version of blur is different from the others and better, and well because we on the g2 forums deserve variety, other than the 3 classic roms, sense,cm7 or miui. And no i dont think this rom will drain that much battery or affect performance, our gpu's beats the crap out of the omap that the droids have.
Also found that when calling someone it will restart the phone and it will keep you on the call till the os finishes reloading.

i'm guessing this is based on the Droid X GB leak - the blur is different than the blur on 2.2? My girlfriend was running stock 2.2 on the DX and getitng like 12 hrs of battery life. Then running Liberty 2.1 (blurless 2.2 based) she was getting 24 hours +. I flashed her over to the Liberty GB alphas (has a lot of blur in it) and have yet to see how the batt life is.
What i do know is that if you look @ running services (on the DX Liberty GB) and use an app like autostarts to see the on startup apps - blur has a whole ton of blur stuff that runs in the background from startup on - unrelated to ui changes and widgets.
What i fail to understand is not manufacturer ui (which differentiates) but why it has to be baked in so deep into the OS and kernel that it makes it impossible to remove if - god forbid - you want a more stock experience.
I have a lot of respect for any dev who brings more variety and software choice for our phones and i dont mean to undermine his work. I guess i just get pissed that companies like motorola make it so hard to go stock (particularly mess with that damned bootloader) that they would rather u ruin your device (i soft bricked my gf's droid x once and the only way to get back to stock is a complete SBF flash - a rare turn of events that i've never had the displeasure of running into on an HTC phone).
On a related note to this ROM, i noticed on Liberty GB (but not on Liberty 2.x) you can remove stuff from the notification area because there is a minus button (ie you dont have to clear all notifications or click on the notification itself to clear it - there is a button that enables its removal). Is this part of blur? I'd love to see this ported to AOSP.
Please note that we are working now to release the 2.3 for HTC Desire.
Unfortunately we don’t have the name of the applications that will be removed from the update however you will be able to install them from Market.
Kindly follow our Facebook page in order to be aware of all the news. 20.05.2011
Yay! another thread on the same thing!! w00t!
Get used to it untill it's over it was the same deal through june, july and august prior to the froyo update last year.
Also great news for everyone on sense roms
this is the last news from htc suport
As long as the apps removed are not part of the sense experience.
Which is exactly the same as they have already stated on facebook, which is exactly the same as already stated in other posts.

Now I'm on stock froyo and I think that it's smoothier than some other roms from xda. (Sense 2.1+3.0 mixes)
No examples but like I said, no problematic and smooth rom.
I've been using custom roms for months, always some sh**... random reebots / USB speed problem (kernels and sh***)... Now I can say 'uff' - everything works.

Yeah I was thinking that myself! Actually my Desire was originally Orange (Spain) branded and they had put all this awful bloatware on it so that was my original reason for rooting and good thing too! I think Orange are the worst for it, though I've heard Vodafone are pretty bad too...
I'm on Vodafone but there is no bloatware on my device. Not even a Vodafone logo.

Dang... Someone needs to get a mod for that.. I really liked the scrolling wallpaper effect..
Not only did it look awesome, it allowed us to have a high quality wallpaper and see everything that was on it...
I too just found out that I no longer has scrolling wallpaper. Is it me or is someone from HTC making retarded choices for their updates. If you have a functionality such as wallpaper scrolling, you cannot take it away when you update the firmaware...I did not buy something and have it taken away in the upgrade.
It should not require someone to do a hack to get that function back. I don't have an iPhone because I know what it can and what it cannot do...
HTC, you need to listen to your users.
I agree with you. That really sucks.
I'm hoping there come a rosie mod for it soon.
Thanks a lot fu**ing HTC.
I installed official JB update and for a few days bg scrolling was working normally then out*off nothing it stopped. Any solution?
You could try using Go Launcher, or any of the other launchers on the market, they will give you the scrolling WP. Unless if you're like me and you like Sense, then alas we're stuck with it
Anyone know if there is a mod for this yet for Sense? I haven't seen anything yet and would really love the scrolling WP back.
