Hello,
Since the Desire S is now out, running gingerbread with sense, is there any chance we might see a Gingerbread/sense rom for the normal Desire soon?
It seems to be possible to port rom's from the Desire HD, although I never understood what the advantage of that would be.

Read the rules, the 1st one is SEARCH BEFORE POSTING.
Not only has this been discussed, but there already are such ports, 2 or 3 to be more specific. Go find them yourself, that's what the search button is for.
To add to the story,the official Desire GB will come out in a week or two,so why bother with AceS rom's anyway...they're rubbish.
i just got response from htc regarding my question will GB update for Desire/Bravo contain Sense 3.0...this is what they sent me:
Thank you for contacting HTC.
In regards to your enquiry, kindly note that the 2.3 gingerbread upgrade has not been released for the Desire phone yet, but it will be relased soon.
kindly note that that the upgrade will include the new HTC Sense 3.0.
Wow! that's really great!
So they are suggesting that the leaked Rom was a very early test build and not close to final.hmm

I highly doubt this.
If it would contain a Sense upgrade, it would be 2.1, but certainly not 3.0
First of all, the hardware of the Desire isnt capable of running Sense 3.0 without a bunch of hacks (see custom roms) and secondly, it would affect sales on their newer devices.

If you copied and pasted that message from your email then the sender hasn't spelt the second released properly.

Maybe some bits of sense 3.0 like sense 2.5?

That might be, yes. But I don't think that they will release a full sense 3 version for desire.... Until then we have our devs (*damo* has released a version from the leaked kingdom ruu)

i think the best you can hope for is the same as the DHD
maybe it'll be sense 3.0, just optimized for desire...

I also find this highly unlikely.
Why would HTC want to update what is an end of life device with their latest sense version?
It doesn't make sense (excuse the pun).
From a commercial point of view, if they did that, they would be shooting themselves in the foot, and I don't think they are that stupid.

Imo they would be stupid if they do not provide updates. I will never buy a Samsung smartphone again just because of that...
Apple always provides latest updates for their phones and that is a good thing.

HTC is anything but stupid. Look at the way they market discriminate their products, adding and subtracting bits and pieces here and there. What they can't do is stop unofficial development, hence the upcoming invite to developers to contribute to making their products more "desirable".
Here's an idea: why pay for r & d when you can get it for free?
i just got another reply from HTC, it looks like they were to hasty with the first answer:
"In regards to your enquiry before, about the HTC sense version 3.0 with the 2.3 gingerbread update for the HTC Desire phone.
I do apologize for contacting you again, but I have just received an update from HTC, that the Desire phone will receive the 2.3 gingerbread upgrade/update soon. However unfortunately, there is no confirmation yet in regards whether the updated Desire phone will have the new sense version 3.0 or not.
I really do apologize for the inconvinience."
looks like the modders here on XDA will still have something to work on... but, fingers crossed....

I think u will get an other reply that will say "unfortunally htc said the update will have sense 1.9"
We can just hope for sense 2.1, we will never get sense 3.0 officially, of course not now already..
HTC seemed to plainly say awhile back that no phone other than dual cores (being Sensation and Evo 3D) will get sense 3.0 going forward....
So I still think the best you can hope for is 2.1
No we will get sense 2.1for sure cause 2 ppl from Netherlands sent an email to HTC and told them that gb will roll out with 2.1

The response depends from the customer care operator..But anyway they don't know the response..Htc didn't provided details on that..
Only the developers/management team that are working on the update know the true and know when it will come out

I suppose you can say the Flyer is single core too - so who knows...
a quick google said that htc took the dual core back and decided it'd be done on a device-by-device basis

It is bad news that HTC is not going to provide Gingerbread updates for DZ.
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_will_not_be_updated_to_gingerbread-news-2779.php
Can XDA experts talk about some good Gingerbread ROMs developed here. Also if HTC sense works on those rom.
Thank you.
This story is about the original Desire not the Desire Z
First of all. Wrong section.
Second. We already have test roms.
Thirdly. I know for a fact the official rom SHOULD be out by the end of this month.
Fourth. Well, that's for the Desire. Not Desire Z, which btw. Will also get 2.3.3, for all the above reasons.
Just released

DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS TO YOUR HD2!!!!
Do you maybe mean this is Desire? Not the HD? Because the filename doesnt sound like its the HD (gb s = I dont know so maybe it is HD). If it is HD, I dont think this is any different from what we have now?
If its really desire, then OMG! This would be Christmas in the middle of the year! No more graphic bugs and no more overall lagging/incompleteness. Nice find, I do hope its the desire source!
Thanks
(And 100MB? Thats pretty small for HD I think...for sense even, IDK.)

The Gingerbread Desire rom is coming very soon!!!
At a dutch site this was announced after an earlier news bulletin which told it was canceled:
original Dutch version:

I thought it wouldn't be sense 3.0 because htc claims it doesn't perform on the Desire serie including the desire HD.
Also the gingerbread Desire HD has been released for some months ago.
We didn't need the Desire GB rom, we need the kernel source of the Desire Gingerbread kernel to fix the graphics and camcorder problems (imilka post). We have enough Desire HD GB rom's.
Look at http://developer.htc.com/ and wait for a new entry "HTC Desire - GB -2.6.35 kernel source code". When HTC release the Desire update, they have to publish the needed kernel source.

HTC originally said they weren't going to give the desire a gb update, but the retracted that post and said they will be doing it soon. Which means the source code will be out soon

No, they have different hardware than our phone. The DESIRE, NOTHING ELSE, just PLAIN old DESIRE will work perfect for our phones. But ANYTHING else, WILL NOT WORK.
They need to sticky this one sentence. Let everyone know that the original desire is what we need. They ARE in progress to release as everyone keeps saying.
Great, now we have even more misinformation... ^^
You should edit your post to say "The Desire source is what we need to get everything working perfectly on our phones. Everything else will work but just not that well. "
Hell, we even got the sensation/kingdom roms ported on the h2d, so I don't see what you remotely mean by "No, they have different hardware than our phone. The DESIRE, NOTHING ELSE, just PLAIN old DESIRE will work perfect for our phones. But ANYTHING else, WILL NOT WORK."

What crack are you on?
Yeah Desire is good for porting to HD2 but its by no means the "only" device that will work.

Obviously others work, I am not blind....we are using them.
Im saying
For REAL working files/roms, we need the desire release, I assumed (which I was obviously dumb for) everyone reading it knew I meant the source, what we have ALL been waiting on. Graphical bugs and probably performance issues because of that plus other 'closer' related phone code can be used.
We (the devs - not me) are using patched code/files that are working but will work better once we get the desire release. All I was saying was this is for the desire hd, and we need the desire release. Its known we need that. What the hell do you mean these other work? They do but are not working as WELL as they CAN be. Lets wait for the release then discus. Either way, this should still be close its irrelevant.
EDIT: And YOU didnt even read the thread. If you read who I was reponding to, he knew we were talking about this 'perfecting' our phone with the source, and asked if any other 'source' would work. I responded. Read before accusing next time

Somebody knows where to find all the 2fast4u88 HTC Desire CDMA ROMS, he has a lot of roms for this devices, but only can find like two or three of them.
