Sure.
Are they going to? No.
That's where custom 2.1/3.0/3.5 ROMs come in.

I think HTC thinks Sense (2.1/3.0/3.5) won't run on the DInc. I also thought that Sense 3.5 was supposed to be the version that didn't require the hardware requirements that 3.0 required, so I would think that would've been the version they could've used instead of 1.0... At this point, I don't think HTC will release any more updates for this phone.
Sad really, cause it's a work-horse.

I agree, that's what they said it was meant for, so why not make that the last update? I think that'd be a good "note" to end on.

I think it was more along the lines of this was going to be the last official update so they were not going tto take the time to build 2.1 sense on a device they no longer support. They just wanted to update the base and interlace sense 1.0 and push it out. They did the same with the EVO.

What i don't get is why they didn't just convert the incredible 2 sense to the incredible 1 with them being so close in specs. HTC should know what there devices can run but there holding the incredible back way to much. Then again we have awesome devs that keep supporting a great phone.

HTC and most manufacturers out there seem clueless. I mean imagine a world where the UOT Kitchen wasn't something developers had to come up with over months of dissecting the phone, but rather a software program that came with your Incredible that allowed you to plug your phone into your computer and make simple color changes and things to personalize your phone.
It's sad really because HTC is so great in some ways - they did afterall, put out the Dinc to begin with. But they do tend to move on to new phones fast...
Thank God for XDA developers!

I see they got it to boot on their Desires and are freakin out, rightfully so. I wonder if the G2s will get a port..if I knew anything about deving I would be over this like flies on sh*t, but alas..I know nothing..
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Thanks for the link. And I bet our devs would love to get it going. I've looked around and the vision seems to be one of the more buzzing forums in terms of development. And I agree, if I could then I would most definitely port it as well. It'll get working on our visions, considering our hardware is more accelterated and powerful than the desire. I know ill be getting the Sensation asap, but the G2 is a great phone and great for flashing roms, etc.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
The original Desire got it booting? I know the DHD guys got it booting (without a touchscreen though).
If none of our devs take this up, which I doubt, I'll try port the DHD port of the Sensation. Which I'll fail.
Meh.
Dammit, it was the DHD guys :-(

I completely agree. If my old G1 could run windows98, Sense, and even 2.3 without much trouble then the G2 should have NO problem I would think.

The OG Desire is doing pretty good they actually have a sensation port and we dont.......can't wait till our gingersense ota gets leaked and we can get some good ports up
So, the jist I get from this discussion is that HTC kicks ass at making phones. Yup. I know my Incredible has turned me into an HTC fanboy.
Can't help but suspect that the Droid1 has the most ROMs.

OG Droid, first "droid" since Verizon bought the rights to use Droid in advertising for their Android phones.
G1 is the first Android Device.
And of course to answer the OP's original question, I'm going to say either the Nexus One or the G1. Both are known as true developer's phones. I mean, they have Gingerbread running on the G1!
What is the best ROM for the incredible , I am rooting my wifes phone and looking for a good rom. any help would be appreciated....
thanks,
Howcome we have ics rooted and running on the G2 for a full day of work expect for came and fm radio.....but yet we can't get its sis honeycomb on the G2...funny cuz ics is a higher than honeycomb and yet we can't get that..

Google never released Honeycomb; besides, its a tablet OS so it really has nothing for phones.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Oh....I'm sure if google was to release it the devs here on xda can manage to boot it on the g2....I've seen a youtube video of the phone with honeycomb but its completly useless
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Google did release honeycomb's source the day after ICS's source was released, No one has cooked it into a rom and honestly its not worth the effort.
dev's wouldn't bother building roms from source, when newer source is released.
Also, they would have the same issues with camera and fm radio not working in honeycomb if anyone tried making it, as no drivers have been made/released for our devices past gingerbread.
-Nipqer
If I recall the phone portions of the OS were completely borked anyways. Which is why the big G never released the code.
Did they actually release HC code with ICS release? I thought it was just that ICS included the HC changes plus everything fixed for phones.

Sooooo about these drivers does google have to release them or do we here at xda have to cook up our own because I believe the next ics relase should have a working camera right?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Google doesn't build the drivers, the manufacturers build drivers to make Android work with each different set of hardware. Its possible for the devs to do, but its very time consuming. HTC isn't going to make HC drivers for our device, since HC is tablet only. And effort (both HTC and devs here) is probably better spent on ICS for the reason that ICS is mostly HC but including phone functionality, and a few other features and optimizations.

Dude, they aren't even RCs! If you want a ROM that has everything working all of the time then either revert back to stock or run a STABLE release.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Camera kinda works means, it has some functionality, but is far from perfect.
You can't do video capture, and the camera struggles with anything above VGA resolution. So nowhere near the 5MP the sensor can offer.
It is quite hard work to get this **** working fully, you should appreciate what they have done so far. So stop *****ing that it ain't perfect.
-Nipqer
I thought you need to run a camera app for the camera to work properly.
Plus I can live without the Desire's camera, not exactly that great.

Guys... Getting Sense on the T989 is no small feat. Sitting here and ****ting on the project does no one any good. If you don't like sense, move along. I don't see many of you guys porting completely different interfaces to our phone.
The whole point of Android and XDA is to share development work. If we didn't work on ports, we wouldn't have AOKP, CM or MIUI.

Would any of the devs be interested in donations to help bring this port to the T-mobile GS III? I would be happy to donate as I see this as an interesting port. I never had a phone with Sense and would at least like the opportunity to try it with our wonderful hardware. I know there are people that are entirely against sense and would say, just buy a phone with sense, but I like my GSIII's hardware as well. I like it's size, screen and camera and think its cool to be able to try other types of software on our phones. If any dev's are interested, I know they could use some help over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764005.

The same reason why people want AOKP or MiUi. People could buy a Nexus or iOS, but the whole point is about options. Simple as that.
i think this would be great its always a good thing if your phone is capable of flashing different software. personally i cant wait untill its ported and am willing to support and test it. for all the haters if you dont want sense dont flash sense but dont say this is a stupid idea and y not buy a sense phone.
