I have the leaked Gingerbread ROM for my Incredible, which I decided to revert to after spending a day with the Kingdom Sense 3.0 ROM. I really loved the lockscreen though, and have seen the download link for the Evo and similar phones floating around, but I know it's the wrong screen size, and don't myself have the skills to fix it. Does anyone know if an appropriately sized Sense 3.0 Lockscreen APK for the Incredible exists, or if not, would someone be willing to make one? The Kingdom Alpha ROM is just too buggy. Maybe some day soon, but for now I just want something functional I can still enjoy
There is a apk. However it doesn't have the icons on the screen. Works well though.

I strongly suggest using gingersense remix (wdfowty I think). It is a gingersense port that includes a bunch of 3.0 features (mostly 2.1 sense) but actually runs on our phones. It includes a working 3.0 lockscreen-if you use the apk then it is the lockscreen only, no shortcuts-just the ring to unlock and no animations.
I can promise if you try this rom you will not be disappointed....
It won't run on the gingerbread leak due to the fact that it is sense 1.0 and not sense 2.1.
I just realized it was you joel that posted the last reply. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of your uber gingershift
My advise to you is look at the ones built off the leaked version for the incredible.
I am running mik miks gingersense beta and it seems to have stabilized enough to use until the official release and subsequent roms built off the final release are out.
Also I dont know if it is coincidence or if it helped but flashing the leaked gb radio is what i did right before everything seemed to stabilize...
Also I believe i was getting better signal on redemption 2.4 than i am on these gingerbread ones.
I moved to mik miks after i was having issues on Gingersense remixed b4 with random restarts and being unable to dial out. Though I now believe I was the cause for most of those issues on a mistake I made when I restored some apps from titanium backup. Make sure you only restore apps you have downloaded not system apps that should not be in the new rom.
Back in the day with WinMo I loved MightyROM because he made an awesome ROM but mostly left the look and feel of stock. He didn't mess with a ton of stuff just because he could and I always appreciated that because it was rock stable. I rely heavily on my phone for business, it must be stable for all the things I use it for. I see the new "official" leak for Gingerbread and I want to give it a shot but I see these other ROMs that are now popping up thanks to the leaked kernel/libraries/whatever. They have higher versions of Sense (which I rely heavily on) and it makes me debate should I jump past the leak? So my question is this:
Which ROM past the modified Sense 1.0 in the official leak retains the most stability combined with new Sense updates? Even though 3.0 is available I'd be happy with the 2.1 that my wife is now rocking on her EVO Shift via another official leak. Which of these is a proper port from a phone with almost identical hardware, etc., so I know it's going to work flawlessly?
Skyrader is a sense ROM with lots of cool stuff from CM7.
Uber stable to.
I second the SkyRaider nomination. His ROMs have always been stable in my experiences. SR 2.5.2 (I believe it was that version?) was the first ROM I actually ever flashed lol.
Sent from my Droid Incredible running CM7.0.3.
I agree Skyraider! It is heavily themed Sense 1.0 so it looks sweet, has tons of customization and has the stability of stock. I have flashed all the new Sense 2, 2.1 and 3.0 roms but I always come back to Skyraider.

I have been using Gingerbread Remix, its a beta but extremely stable. It's based on sense 2.1 but has sense 3.0 features like the lockscreen.
Skyraider looks like it's still Froyo though, if I'm going to go through the hassle of re-setting up my device I'd rather do it with actual gingerbread, not just themed gingerbread.
well, then you're gona have to look at the very few gingerbread roms out there since it's brand new. there's some in the development section that are PLAIN stock gingerbread sense; then there are some that are themed. i'm on optimized gingersense right now which seems real nice, and root is uploading a new release now that includes some sense 3 goodies, so you might wanna look into that.
I'm on Gingersense remix by wdfowty. It's sense 2.1 but with all the nice sense 3 features that you would want. Lockscreen, message and phone apps.

I've been loving SR 4.0 with Lous #8...but i recently moved over to the Uber kingdom rom and I'm hooked. It has so much potential...wouldnt quite recommend it for a daily driver yet unless you are the patient type
Stock Kingdom is pretty solid now that it's in alpha 2. Only issue I've had is with Rosie, so I just installed launcher pro. Problem solved.

This rom is amazing. Give it a shot, you won't regret it!
Do any of them have any issues with Exchange activesync?
+1 with GingerSense RmX, great ROM, great Sense 3.0 integration, stable as can be, only problems I've had with it are related to MMS but that's cause I didn't wipe before the update :/
I'm also running the GingerSense ReMix Rom, they just released beta 3 today, its been very stable for me. Just keep in mind its still beta.

None that I have found yet... I have flashed newtoroots and Wdfowty's sense 2.1 Roms.
I run sky raider as my daily. If you are looking for something to set up and run for a while, I'd go with sky raider 4.0. You commented about not wanting to reset everything up. The Ginger sense ports are betas and each release requires full wipe.
SR 4.0 is currently the most stable feature packed sense rom. Waiting for ports or leaked gb builds to get more stable then ill switch. Would love a skyraider rom based on the Inc Gb leakĀ”!
I am using the Stock Plus v3.01 ROM and loving it.
I must admit though, the only reason I am using it because I love HTCs voice recognition keyboard and I didn't know how to get that into CM7 on my Droid Incredible!

This is the next ROM I am going to try. I so far haven't really like anything else.
So Sense 3.5 is starting to annoy me with the lag (due to processor) so I'm trying to get a sense 3.0 rom as it will run faster and smoother, the only one I could download was virtuous unity which is nice but not great.
I've had good luck with the 3.5 ROMs (Affinity, Runnymede) but currently running GingerBangSense with the Sense 3.0 patch. Has a few minor (very minor IMO) issues but very good. Based on the Inc2 OTA.

tsm trinity is one of our sense 3.0 roms, and honestly probably the only true sense 3.0 rom actively being worked on....it has tweaks and other customizations
also we have tsm bullet which is a mt4gslide sense 3.0 port...which is a very different spin on sense 3.0

the 1 thing that deters me from sense 3.5 are load times, much slower on initial load of an app than in sense 3.0
Can anyone downgrade Htc One V to android 2.3 with sense 3.6 for full animated Rose effects, or upgrade to Full Sense 4.0 with all animation and effects.
Can anyone (Developer) Port Android 2.3 with Sense 3.6 to HTC One V?

Good question, I was actually wondering the same, while android 4.0 is here working on this phone, I feel sense 4 makes it a bit sluggish....
Stock android 4.0.3 or even stock gingerbread on this phone would be awesome...
That's awesome idea, i would love to see Android 2.3.6 and Sense 3.6 on my ONE V. Maybe i'm just not used to the 4.0 yet

To me, sense 4 is too....BIG for the lack of a better word
The icons are way to big, as are menus, as is just everything....
Maybe I'm just picky like that though hahaha

That is correct. I like Sense 3.5 on my old Desire S and I think it's possibble to have custom sense 3.5 running on 4.0.3. that would be awesome to have Sense 3.5+ICS features.
Android 2.3.x with Sense 3.5 is good
I think it is batter to have Android 2.3.x with Sense 3.5 for Htc One V, to perform better then Android 4.0.x, so i hope there is any developer the port it from Desire S or Desire HD
you guys are picky..
sense ui 4 is so beautiful.
all we need is a cm9 build and everyone can install any launcher he wants , make changes to icons, menus, homescreens... everything!

We're not picky, we just want to have more options. For the CM9 fans there should be CM9 ROM and for the Android 2.3/Sense 3.6 there should be ROM too. I strongly feel that the hardwer of HTC One V is designed for Sense 3.6. HTC made a mistake by porting Sense 4.0 to this smartphone in first place because we didn't get the full Sense 4.0 but something similar to "beta" i.e HTC customized the Sense 4.0 specially for the One V which resulted with losing some genuine Sense features like the Leap view.

When asking for stuff, make sure to get your nomenclacture correct
Froyo / eclair (Android 2.1 / 2.2) had "sense", referred to as "old sense" or 1.9
Gingerbread (Android 2.3) had sense 2.1, 3.0 and 3.5 (the latest referred to as "runny" ROMs)
Handsets that shipped with gingerbread, and were then upgraded to ics came with sense 3.6 HTC wanted the same user experience as 3.0 / 3.5 for its "older" handsets
Ice cream sandwhich (Android 4.0 +) sense 3.6 (upgraded gb phones), sense 4.0 lite (One V), and sense 4.0 full
So, NO handsets, as in NONE have gingerbread and sense 3.6......ZERO.
I can understand asking for:
1. Gingerbread / sense 3.5
2. ICS with sense 3.6
3. ICS with a sense 3.6 / 4.0 hybrid (like the old 2.1 /3.0 hybrids)
4. ICS with full sense 4.0
But not gingerbread and sense 3.6........doesn't exist.
I have been running sense since the beginning, literally, the "cube" on the HTC touch, then manilla 2D, 3D, sense as in winmo sense ala HD2, then Android sense. When talking about sense, proof read and make sure your not mixing up the varients and what they can run on. You cannot ask for a "port" for something that doesn't exist.

yes. no sense. if you want sense. stick with sense 4. it is much more optimized than any other older sense, I can tell you that! but if you want a faster phone with no lag, go with stock android with no user interface. install a great launcher like Nova and enjoy android experience how was meant to be!
We do not need Sense... All we need is stock working Android 4 ICS build and cm9.. If someone want to help me port that Rom please pm me.. I do not have the phone yet.

Yes as we need
1. Gingerbread / sense 3.5
4. ICS with full sense 4.0
any one from them, whatever easy to port with full function.
but we like to have full animated Sense as it was i think option 1. Gingerbread with Sense 3.5 as best for HTC One V and compatible with hardware.
I like choice as much as anyone, any "flashaholic" does. The more the better.
There is always the possibility of "rooted stock" that you can add flashable zips to. Examples would be added leap view (available on the desire), rc team tweaks, optimo tweaks etc which offer different animation on / off, different Rosie (that's the name for the sense launcher btw) mods, flashable themes (requires deodexed ROMs), etc.
My so called list was the various sense / android combos that could work on the One V hardware, by no means meant to be definitive. I have not heard of many people wanting to downgrade their version of android though, sense 3.6 is basically sense 3.5 reworked for ICS.
Shubbysomethinorother (sorry Dude!) was a talented dev on the Desire, I have always enjoyed his ROMs. Cpk5 (sorry if I got that one wrong too) is a talented themer. Asking guys like that for ROM extras like flashable zips that may or may not work on a rooted stock ROM is the best, imho way to go for most as it allows you to add the features you want, and ignore the rest. No one ROM will satisfy everyone.
A device with alot of dev support tends to get this, if not, be nice to the devs you have! Politely asking for features, and not demanding etas etc is a good way to start.
Good luck guys, myself I keep visiting this phone at my local store comparing it to my Desire. It's cheap enough off contract to make a nice development toy while waiting for a One S with real storage, or the "two" series!

Just take the plunge. I bought one as a stop gap until the next HTC Nexus device (hopefully released November as per the rumours). Until then, the One V is great. Just needs an AOSP ROM really.
