Hi,
and what about htc sense??
can a developer extract sense files from wildfire S and port it to Wildfire??
To all asking about the new sense, it is being worked on by Emiliano7, developer of the JokerDroid series of ROMS, there is no guarantee it will work and function fully due to the hardware constraints of the Wildfire, mostly Processor, Storage and Screen Res. When he makes progress he has said he will update us. Just be patient and be happy it is being worked on.

P.S. : Not wanting to be annoying but this really shouldn't be in Dev Section.

Hi all
I know that a lot of effort has been taken to port the new Froyo into HTC Desire, and I really appreciate that.
Now my question is if HTC doesn't support Desire for future android versions (i.e. Gingerbread) will it be possible to fully root the device and use the cooked ROMs or is it a chance that Desire will stuck at Froyo forever?
Another question is that is it possible to use the current techniques (of installing Froyo), also for future Gingerbread?
I do like Desire very much but I have doubts about the future of this lovely device, so please answer me.
Thanks
As far as I know not even n1 has an official upgrade to froyo, why don't you just enjoy the desire at this stage?
Or you could keep check if there is any upgrade news via engaged, xda, or whatever media daily, like me.

Hello every one, I've got a question (maybe already asked but I find nothing sorry) about de Desire:
My N1 was stolen a few weeks ago and I have the possibility to have a Desire. But the fact is that I don't want sense and I'd like to have the official Google OTA update, without waiting for HTC.
So my question is: is it possible to root the desire and install the same rom as on the N1?
Thanks by advance for the answers, and sorry for the english, I'm a poor french frog
Just look around the forum
If you look around in the htc desire development forum you'll find a lot of custom roms and how to's on rooting, s-off and theming.
This thread is in the wrong place
N1 ROms are essentially ASOP roms, they're all over this forum.
But if I take a custom rom, I won't be able to have the officials OTA Google updates, like it was with my N1, and that's what I want : /
see, the google updates are like cake, and the custom aosp updates here are like cake with chocolate sauce on top of it.
ok (I love cake so I love the image^^), if there's really no way I'll take a tour on the forum and check which ROM seems to be the best for me, thanks for the help.

althought the desire and n1 are similar there not the same, you cant just put the n1 rom on the desire so when google does an ota update, you'l magically get it on your desire too, the cake anology is good as generally the asop roms are more or less the n1 roms with tweeks to make them even better ( like overclocking etc) id recomend the defrost rom, it has ota updating built into the rom and am pretty sure as soon as gingerbread comes out we'l have it on the desire at the same time as the n1 people have it ( also you have the option of having a sense rom which is nice, always good to have options)

Crazy. You can NOT run N1 roms on the Desire
To OP: just use CyanogenMod

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!!!

^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.

hi guys wondering if it was possible or any roms out there for wildfire with htc sense 3.o. thanks for any help
Lolno. Or you want a rom that is more laggy than my old windows 3.1 pc.
There is only a Sense 2.1 ROM out there at the moment, and, porting that by itself is proving to be a difficult task.
Dont expect 3.0, be happy were gonna get 2.1 ^^
Edit: we got 2.1 but not for daily use, yet.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using Tapatalk
3.0 can't run on our Wildfires It's way to large for us, 2.1 is proving a problem enough!
As mentioned 3.0 .... crazy talk.
2.1 from the Wildfire S ROM is the closest to completion in development.
note, "SFM 1.1 for wildfire [based on salsa]" is the nearest to completion for a daily driver.
Hope this helps
This phone has enough power to run this version. Many DZ owners can confirm this. Is the HTC Desire Z ever going to get this update?
Desire Z will officially get an update in January, but nobody knows what will it include
Wildfire S got an update recently with sense 3.0 lockscreen, but officialy it's called sense 2.1
Now Desire HD and Incredible S got a Sense 3.0 update. Hope we will get something too, especially if there's no next generation qwerty phone from HTC.
HTC engineers are working to bring Sense 3.0 to Desire Z at the moment, if they decide that Sense 3.0 works on Desire Z without any problem, they will release it via OTA, but if they decide that Sense 3.0 is not compatible with Desire Z, then they will cut the biggest features like 3D scrolling, and just release some Sense 3.0 features like Active Lock Screen as Sense 2.2 via OTA
desire HD got sense 3 OTA. im looking forward that they fix the bugs present in 2.3.3
is this confirmed already?
HTC Turkey confirmed it
I saw only information about DHD and DIS, nothing about Desire Z . Do you have any confirmation that HTC Turkey said anything?
No, because I have contacted with HTC Turkey by calling them, but I will try to get more information and a confirmation like screencaps for you
If you said that Desire Z will get update thats enough . However, wonder what version of sense we will get. My tryouts with support contact edns with information "phone is being tested with Android 4.x, but we cannot say anything". Well, we shall see. In my opining there are 3 possibilities, we will get 2.3.5 with Sense 2.1 with new lock screen, we will get Android 4.x in Jan/Feb or we will not get anything .
My conversation on HTC Chat with English Support.
"Hello. Is Desire Z will still be updated to android 2.3.5
Beatrix: Yes it is alredy relesed.
Beatrix: I can not tell you the exact date but every device will get the update.
Beatrix: You can check for a system update from the phone itself. On the Home Screen press MENU - SETTINGS - ABOUT PHONE - SYSTEM SOFTWARE UPDATES - CHECK NOW. If there is an update available then please download and install it. We recommend that you download the update via a WI-FI connection to avoid any data charges imposed by your mobile network provider.
Me: It is known IncreadibleS and Desire HD got the updates and Desire Z was not on the list of updates in December
Beatrix: yes it will be updated beggining next year. with htc sense3.0"
Engadget had desire z listed as getting sense 3.0 I thought..just a few days ago

is it new article? wildfire s just got an update... but no sense3
i dont mind if no sense3 as long as they fix the reload issue
and optimize the performance... before i go custom.
but sense3 will be appreciated if it comes
I also contacted HTC chat (Dutch support) They said the DZ will get the 2.3.5 update, but not what's included.
HTC UK
I have just contacted the htc uk customer services team who confirmed that the desire z will recieve android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 update soon but they could not tell me when it will be available just that it is definately happening and it will be soon so its just a case of keep checking in and wait. seems like it will definately be happening though so thats one good thing
I hope before Christmas!
update
We got an update last Xmas, too.
Many of you probably have tried Sense 3.0 already with custom roms.
It is slow, I guess. Even with overclocking.
I hope they at HTC will find the right way.
I am waiting on an update, too, I just don't know why. It is nothing special.
Well, the new camera app is nice, advanced quick menu is cool, too.
Will you guys and all of us keep us updated if anyone gets the OTA update?
(we'll probably know about it in XDA forums, anyway...)
Why i want it? Two words- Rotating Rosie.

Thanks alot for this information guys. I've been trying hard to use custom sense Rom on my phone but the performance lag is just not worth it. If at all HTC does decide to bless us with Sense 3.0, I'm sure the developers will be able to optimize it even further for our liking.
Just a note: you've given us a hope by starting this thread. Here's hoping it doesn't get crushed!!!
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I'd say the chances of our hopes being crushed are slim when so many of us have contacted htc directly but i cant say that im not worried that htc will go back on there word. After all what is the number of desire z users compared to the over all amount of customers htc has. We can only hope that even huge corporate companies have a concionce

You can try Virtuous Doubleshot then, but I couldn't fix mobile data on that ROM, CM7 RIL has only brought network back.
