Hey All, So, first off, Don't rage on me please for posting this again -----(Bad English?)
it's been here and here but no serious development was there, So, i chose to embarrass myself and ask AGAIN..
i installed CM7 (<< which is a Gingerbread build.) and kept it for sometime (5 FULL HOURS ) but i can't live without the Al-AWESOME Sense UI and it's widgets so i got back to a Sense ROM (Aurax ROM which is a FrOyo ROM) now, i really miss that cool [ON] [OFF] Screen animation. so, could someone please port that? (if it's possible, and IF NOT then please tell us that so i can just let it go and live with what i have)
( i "THINK" that whoever ports it "MIGHT" have good amount of donations )
+1. Cool little feature!

The SenseUI is built around HTC's own framework so that would need to be ported for a start which no one will do. The animations will get released when 2.3 get's released. I seriously doubt no one will port it over since it will be a feature that will be coming out soon. It's just a matter of waiting.

Hello,
Having used lox devs dev Eclair AOSP ROM I've realised how lacking the Hero is in its standard form - general speed of use and just the way the system feels.
In short I love using 2.0 with none of the HTC bloatware, its a shame as I don't think the ROM devs think there is much call for this - Hopefully in this thread everyone who agrees will shout up.
Obviously the dev one has its issues - sync, random crashes on phone function, etc, but I'm happy to work with it if I know there is development coming.
It would be great for one of the devs to take the project on board, knowing there is community support for this. I'm sure I'm not the only person who feels this way.
Unfortunately I'm no way programmingly minded and struggle with linux at the best of times, never mind thinking about coding, but I'd donate/support/playtest any work in progress clean android *latest version* ROM for the Hero.
Sorry...subtract 1 No. I am not an android Dev..but have been drinking Leffe
anybody got anything to add to this?
i will request Lox_Dev to update this rom when he gets some free time as i know he is working hard to get Eclair 2.1 done. I and a friend of mine is using 2.0 AOSP for last 5 days and none of us is complaining with basic features. all look good.
just 2-3 things need to be fixed.
* cant set own wallpaper as album/gallery app isnt there.
* bluetooth pairs but cant send/receive files
* camera works upto 3 megapixel.
otherwise i dont find any major problem with AOSP 2.0. i dint face a single hang in 5 days and neither did my friend.
Well, first off all. The current 2.0 / 2.1 builds all run very laggy and crappy. It is as if the video drivers aren't using any acceleration at all or something.
In Lox's 2.0 clean build (which I've used for the past few days) every bit of animation except the lockscreen goes laggy. Scrolling through the menu, opening the menu, opening the notifications... it never goes as smooth as on the 1.5 based ROMS.
I'm in no way complaining, don't get me wrong. I'm very interested in using a stock android experience but so far nothing is working good yet. The 1.6 based tries don't support all the hardware, and the 2.0 / 2.1 based ROMs aren't up to speed.
This is more than understandable ofcourse. The 2.0 / 2.1 based ROMS are based on leaked alpha / beta work which just isn't ready yet, and 1.6 differs too much from the stock android ROM to get all the hardware working OK.
So my hope is that when HTC releases their 2.0 / 2.1 official ROM, we can use it to make a clean vanilla Android 2.x experience which runs as snappy as our current HTC 1.5 versions, and still with all the hardware working OK. Maybe even with a guide how to 'backup' or transfer the googlebits from the official 2.x ROM.
A clean 2.x ROM, but with the googlebits, and with the HTC music player + album + camera + browser... now that would be awesome.
Starting a thread like this isn't really much use right now, since we only have buggy laggy 2.x bits from a leaked ROM to get stuff working.

Ha, ridiculous. Seriously I don't get people's issue with Sense UI, if you don't want it fine.. But deal with the fact that you're losing HTC apps as well.

omg how am I ever gonna live without a laggy browser, calendar, contact list or sms application?
It would be the best thing ever, IMO.
And nobody needs to be offended, those who want sense UI can just use that
Exactly! So stop flooding Hero (HTC) ROM threads with useless crap about wanting a ROM minus Rosie/Sense UI, E2K you've been the worst offender?!?!
You must be happy now that a almost fully functional AOSP ROM's in the wild!

Happy?? I am more happy than ever! (regarding the hero)
Also very thankful that the developers got their sh*t together and are pumping out roms like real pro's.
THe devs should be called "hero" not this 2007 pos A7200 cellphone

wtf is wrong with stating what would be a nice combo in my opinion? I even started by saying that for now there should be no hope and 'just requesting it to the devs' right now is bonkers. When a good HTC 2.x ROM comes along the devs have something to play with, until then this thread was useless... and still you gonna call that ridiculous? Your even saying that to a user who has tried a vanilla ROM for the whole of 30 hours before running back to my nandroid backup with MCR on it.
Go troll somewhere else please, or at least read the posts carefully and whole you're going to attack.
Hello fellow XDA members!
Following yesterday's news about the working camera on the Desire HD ROM ports, I started thinking about the infamous official Sense 2.0 update for our Desire.
In particular, I was thinking about which features of the new Sense 2.0 could be left out for our Desire since we have limited NAND storage to store the whole ROM as is. Unless HTC manages to compress the ROM, there is no other outcome for us than to have a feature or two less than the Desire HD and Z owners.
And here comes the question for all of you guys..
Which of the features of Sense 2.0 could you live WITHOUT?
Personaly..
1) I could live without the themes which I suppose take much of the space needed by the ROM, or at least have a limitation as to how many themes we can have on the ROM.. unless HTC decides to put them on the SD card.. Same goes for new/existing backgrounds..
2) I could also live without the camera effects too.. we have Photoshop on our Androids now so I see no need to have it on board the camera UI...
Keep it on topic.. keep it clean.. and let the discussion begin!! (not intended rhyme here... )
*NOTE* Since I havent posted on the appropriate threads.. I am therefore saying a great thanks to "snq-" for doing his magic on the camera module and "robocik" for creating the wonderful RCMixHD ROM and making our dreams come true
Hello!
I'm currently running Oxygen's excellent Gingerbread 2.0 RC6 on my Desire. It's been fine, although I notice many of the visual enhancements don't currently work - like screen on/off animation etc. I also get the Oxygen loading screen hang frequently.
Now, I can put up with these things IF there is a way to get the Sense UI onto the device while running Gingerbread... I have no idea if this is even possible or not!
Can someone please advise? Is there a launcher ROM that can be flashed over the top of Gingerbread that will give me the Sense UI goodies while giving me the other benefits of GB? Or am I limited to waiting for a modified Sense-based 2.3 ROM rather than an AOSP one such as Oxygen?
Appreciate you advice and input

...but BOO HISS anyways
Thanks for your reply!
Totally agree. I had the updated oxygen ROM and missed some of the sense features. COME ON HTC give us gingerbread with sense 2!!
Get the full version of launcherpro which has sense style Widgets for your homescreens. Then get the sense theme for the launcherbar at the bottom of the screen. Looks exactly the same without having to flash a sense rom.

Yes, probably. There are several threads about that in Desire General section

They said so, but is is reasonable to assume that DesireHD and Desire Z get it first, then we are next.
That however could take a lot of time, I read something about September at the earliest.
Someone correct me please if I'm wrong.
Desire Gingerbread is coming around June time. No specifics as to whether DesireHD and Z get it first but it says they are all on the same schedule as the Incredible S whereas Desire S and Wildfire S will ship with 2.3
source: engadget.com/2011/02/27/htc-incredible-s-desire-hd-desire-z-and-original-desire-will-a/
That could take a while, which is why some of us are installing Gingerbread Roms in the 1st place
Probably will especially if you have to wait for your relevant carrier to tinker with it first. That's why I flashed custom. May go to official HTC rom if/ when this is leaked just depends how slow it is compared to CM 7 unless of course it has sense 2 (crosses fingers)
I'm running CM7 RC1 with Honeycomb Alva v4 theme with ADW EX and I'm loving the look of honeycomb. I hope the brilliant devs that works hard for our free roms can work their magic on the SDK. I wish I could do it, I'm going to start reading up on it nut I never have time so I'd be a cack dev lol. but I must say I'm looking forward to seeing sense on a gingerbread rom!!!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
^The same ROM has a Sense port theme using the same method as you installed the Honeycomb theme
It doesn't have the Sense widgets and functionality though, quite obviously.

Sorry I should have said the Widgets... I love the clock with the animations that's what I'm looking forward to.....could be a long anticipated wait lol.!

Hi all,
I'm currently using C7 nightlies and Leedroid, I love sense but i do like some of the features which c7 nightlies come's with, Namely the Screen off / on style animation which is just superb, I don't know if this has been asked (probably has) but is there an apk or even a flashable file which can implement this to sense rom's, it truly would set off the rom i use currently.
Any answers would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Ive always stuck with Vanilla Android with my previous Android devicesssss and this is my first Sense UI phone and I like it.

Thoes animations are only for GB+, its like asking for aero on windows xp once GB gets an official release, you will be able to use thoes animations with sence roms, just be patient init

I am patient, I just didn't know whether or not it could have been implemented or not, c7 has it so I thought it could be possible.
Ill just wait innit!
Hi all,
As the title says, can we expect this ROM on our Desire HD? When it's out offcourse..
Cause the new Sense 3.0 looks really awesome! want to have that
Also, Sense 3.0 is already running on the HTC EVO 3D.. is it possible to make a ROM from that one?
These are just some questions I am curious for, so I can dream about having Sense 3.0 somewhere in the future on my Desire HD
Thanks!
Well HTC said that they were going to change the lockscreen on Sense. I believe that the Sense update will come to the DHD but without some features since the E3D and Sensation are dualcore processors.
And if HTC doesn't make a official update we always got developers ^^
I love the new lockscreen
The *NEW* lockscreen customization feature looks AWESOME !
I guess there are two ways of getting SENSE 3.0 or perhaps some of its features :
1. Either OFFICIAL 2.3 UPDATE would give us some of the 3.0 SENSE features
2. Or we'll get OFFICIAL 2.3 UPDATE which will bring to us some dumb new feature as NEW notification bar & application list ( as we can see in Desire S / Incredible S )
- And then we'll have to wait a few months for getting DHD rooted ; getting SENSE 3.0 PORTED ; bla bla bla

Our update to gingerbread will have Sense 2.1 (as shown in the leaked ROMs), I highly doubt we'll get Sense 3.0 officially for our device.
I hope someone can port it over, I'm not an expert so I don't know if it's possible. I'm guessing we won't as the Sensation is dual core and ours isn't?
ohhh yeah this rom is simply asewome !!!!! hope someone will port it on our DHD
Devs are working on a port from a leaked Sensation Rom! It's just a matter of time I guess! Hope they can fix the difference in screen resolution issue which seem to be the biggest problem so far...
Lockscreen does look very nice! I hope it also fixes my issue of accepting/refusing a cal when I get the DHD out of my pocket...
WAKE UP!!! a port was posted to the DEV section yesterday see here , it might save time and my hair if you check the dev section.
