Sense Gingerbread - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are none of the Sense GB ROM's ever going to have 4G? I've looked at several and none of them have 4G.

Probably not until it comes officially

Didn't the new GingerSense rom give 4G capabilities?

None of the Sense 2.0 GB ROMs right now will have 4g. Until a Sense 2.0 ROM is released for the Evo, it probably won't happen.
The Sense 2.0 GB ROMs are all ports from other devices with no Wimax, so it's not going to work.

I was under the impression that it did.

I know it does....lol....but the OP may be referring to the Sense 2.0 roms that you correctly referenced....

I figured it did. I don't like to say I know though, esp if I haven't tried it. Thanks for pointing that out though, I forgot to mention it.

Ahh that sucks... 4G is becoming a real deal breaker for me when choosing ROMS that is why I stopped using MIUI . I want to use what I'm paying for. =/

Everybody just needs to relax and stop posting so much (myself included). I need to get WORK done .

Is anyone working on porting Sense 2.x to the leaked Gingerbread ROM? Seems like that would be the easiest way to do it. Not sure if it's even possible, though.

I don't think it's possible. Sense is too tangled in. Otherwise, they could have just taken sense 2.0 and put it over the Evo's Android and had working everything instead of porting all the Z ROMs to get Sense 2.0 on Froyo.

The original leak that was made flashable by Tmartin had 4g but only Sense 1.0 but it was android 2.3.3

First of all, next time don't post a question in the dev section, that what q and a is for!
A little behind huh 2.1 lol. Just flash any Rom most are updated with the latest goodies. Don't bother flashing stock roms, flash a custom.
Youtube a few videos on flashing evo and read some text instructions. Then put two and two together.
Edit: If you what a pure google rom flash a aosp rom. If you are a Htc sense fan then look for custom stock.

please, please, please just answer me this. do you know where i can get a stock custom? i recently flashed cyanogen 6.1.2 and i love it, ****ing amazing. but i like htc sense, because i use the apps alot, and somethings i like more. and i miss my 4G. i dont think a stock custom will have 4G but idc, i just want one like that. a good idea would be something like cyanogen mod but have it sense.
Im running fresh 3.5, netarchy 4.3 no havs no undervolt, seidio 3500 and its great. Been off the charger for 12 hours and at 74% life...very very happy! Running 1190 is my sweet spot. 38ish mflops 1500 quadrant and been completely stableat the speed

I had to throw a thanks on that post. It may not have been a useful post in the general definition for the forums, but it sure was useful in getting me to chuckle out loud
And in the hopes of being somewhat useful to the OP, why not start with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830153&highlight=sprint+lovers which is close to stock, get your feet wet flashing, then try the more "exotic" stuff.

Check out virusroms or mynns. Good sense or senseless roms that are constantly updated by devs that seem to never leave their pc's.
Threads are everywhere. Happy flashunting!
And am I the only one that lol'd over the term "stock custom"?
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......

Try myns rom. Its smooth, everything works, including 4g. If you like sense, you should like it.
I would suggest virus Rome too. I thing he's the best evolution Dec period. Been using his stuff since September, everything works and he never disappoints. Full 4g, full tether, etc

Unfortunately. But there's always XDA . My friend has an Eris and its stuck on 2.1. And yet there are still active developers for it. And stable gingerbread roms. I have faith in the community.

sense 3.0
sense 2.0 is kind of old now because of sense 2.1 and sense 3.0 on the evo 3d. I hope it comes with 3.0 because of the carousel effect.

I can't wait, I love some GB aspects of AOSP roms like CM but really prefer the appearance of sense roms, especially Z roms with sense 2.0.
If it doesn't I'm gonna be pissed

The problem is, we have to deodex and remove a bunch of stuff just to even get it to fit on our phones. 256mb of space isnt even close to the size of the roms most of these sense 2.0 and 2.1 phones are coming with.
Most of my sense 2.0 ports so far, i had to remove at least 200mb apps, odex files and extra Verizon stuff. Etc...
Im not sure Verizon would be ok with not being able to have any Extra's at all.
Im not sure they will uprade Sense simply because they wont be able to fit it.
I have asked HTC on twitter like 3 or 4 days ago if they can tell me anything about it. They are yet to respond.

Dear (my name here),
I understand how exciting it is to have the latest updates for your Incredible. Google has announced that most Android devices that were created in 2010 or later would receive the Gingerbread update. However, we do not have a time frame of when the update would become available. We will not know which features would be included or updated until the update if ready for release. When updates are announced, you can find the information at www.htc.com/us and www.twitter.com/htc.

my thought is that it will probably be like the Eris 2.1 update. It will have most of the gingerbread goodness, and there will be a few sprinkles just to add some flavor, but the official "GingerSense" will probably not have all of the sugary goodness that we want in our Rom. How else will they generate upgrade eagerness in all of those who don't explore all the goodies that come with rooting and flashing the beautiful roms we find on XDA.
Personally, I'm rockin the WarmZtwopointtwo.
IMO, an official GingerSense update will need to be pretty nice to overcome all of the custom options we have available to us. (And really, waiting for that update to be torn apart, gutted of all the ridiculous bloatware, padded and polished with root app goodness, then zipped back up...is probably going to provide the best GingerSense Rom update that we can expect)
I'm willing to bet that we will not see Sense 2.0.

If you bought your EVO 4G new, Sense came preinstalled as on all EVO 4G devices.

He's running the Jiminy IV ROM, not sure if he flashed it or bought it that way, but also a sense ROM.

Its something you either have or you don't. Most of the time the word common is placed in front of it and most people don't have that either.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
The simple answer to your first question is:
Sense is HTC's own software they put on top of Android.
For example Motorola uses Android's software, without any changes to it. Which is why their phones are called "AOSP"(Android Open Source Project).
HTC, however, felt they wanted to advertise their own **** and put their "Sense" on top of Android, thus called Sense Roms.
Advantages and disadvantages to both. Choose whichever suits your needs more. I prefer Sense roms though. Sprint Lovers being my favorite since I can remove all the crappy carrier roms (Sprint Nascar, etc..) without all the added feature.
I like simplicity.
That is correct, but doesn't Motorla use Motoblur on most of there phones? Nexus S is an example of a phone that comes with AOSP.

I've only used Moto Droid and Droid X. They were AOSP.
Its the UI overlay that comes with the phone. It can be removed if you like. Its like what blur for motorola or well there are others...

Is 4g working on most roms?

I'm getting sprint soon and already have an evo and didn't really see in the threads if 4g was working or not. Maybe it wasn't mentioned cause it is but before I root I have to ask. Also, what is a very stable AOSP based rom. I can look at the threads but that isn't going to tell me. Im not asking what is the best just what is the most stable. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Most of the threads do tell you, actually, in the OP for each ROM, but yes, it's working on MOST ROMs. The exceptions are some of the newer ones and MIUI

Specifically the Sense 3.5 roms, and the working ICS port.

[Q] HTC'S Sense in the future?

So now that CM7 is official and nearing from my opinion a completion and MIUI is being worked on and becoming more stable I was just curious on what others had to say about a Sense Rom. I know it's been talked about before and ports have been released on here but they never seemed to kept being worked on. So is their any chance a Sense Rom(even sense 2.0 or 2.1)would be considered as a next project to try and run on this Phone or is it something that simply cannot be achieved?
Just curious don't flame me lol
I would love to see sense but others would rather see everything work on aosp roms first

Yeah me too I mean i thought MIUI was never going to be ported let alone ever stable but with its newest release today it fixed the big issues...along with CM7 i.e. Wimax. I came to sprint in May and this Epic 4g is my first phone with them(bought it cause it had a big enough screen and a keyboard) and prior to that on T-Mobile with the HD2,MYtouch 4g and 3g slide...I've always had HTC but took the risk of switching thinking that this phone would easily have a sense rom..huh I really hope someday it would be successfully ported on this awesome phone
There was some sense development going on awhile ago by Xboxfanj. I think he's still working on it, but his time might have been occupied by getting MIUI stable enough to be a RC.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
well now that miui is RC and stable (enough)..hopefully him and other dev's will look into seeing if sense can be worked at. I know CM9 might be next after CM7 is finished but hopefully besides that this will be under consideration..It would be awesome if it worked
Ok I'm gonna start working on this again. Wish me luck.
