Full Sense 4.0? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do you think our devs will get on working with the full Sense 4.0? Or is it not feasible? (read: same as Sense 3.5 in performance)

yes
once HTC release ICS update for desire HD or Desire S, we'll have working drivers for camera,
then our devs can make it happen

Don't you guys have Virtuous Primadonna?

We have 3 or 4 sense 4 roms, but they're one V, which is sense 4A (lite), because its the only one with correct screen resolution
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA

So, the Sense 4 (full) roms will need rescaling, as did some of the 3.5 ones?

Yes. But I think, we will get full sense 4.0 soon.

what's the difference between 4a(lite) and 4(full)?

As it's name suggests - a trimmed down version of the full 4.0 sense, mostly in terms of animations and the sorts. Opimized in order to work smoothly on lower performing hardware, like the one v.

I think full sense 4 is not going to work smoothly on our phone. There's a reason htc developed 4A.

Can we expect wildfire s Rom on our wildfire?

With the release of HTC new smart phones including the wildfire s, I was wondering if the new wildfire s Rom could be ported to our wildfire. Both models doesn't have much difference in hardware apart from a slightly faster processor and a gpu, its roughly the same.. with a same screen size though different resolution. The Rom that comes with is 2.3 and has some extra features for instance Facebook face tagging which I saw on the wildfire s first look video posted by HTC on YouTube. So I'm just wondering can we expect this latest Rom on our wildfire?

i dont think htc will release 2.3 on wildfire considering 2.2 took so long and didnt even have almost any improvements due to lack of hardware.

I think the original poster is asking whether anyone here on XDA will be able to port the Wildfire S ROM over to our original Wildfires...in my opinion it is probably possible but we will have to wait and see as no one has the Wildfire S yet
Yeah but it won't be long before its released. Since it was possible to port the DHD Rom to desire so maybe its possible for wildfire s Rom to wildfire too.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
I am not counting on it to be honest, because, the Wildfire S is a totally different phone compared to the Wildfire. It is now much more of an Aria / Gratia.
Desire HD is pretty similar to Desire, with the same screen resolution, almost same CPU (Just a mildly upgraded one), same GPU, and, only increased screen size, internal memory and RAM.
However, obviously, if the WF S ROM is ported to WF, it will be a great thing, it is just that I am not crossing my fingers (yet)
Not really, the differences in screen resolutions roils imply terrible amounts of resizing with little to no benefits for the old wildfire, except 2.3 that is.

No. Because it is not designed for QVGA. Also, for Sense to be "ported", HTC must release the code AFAIK.
Porting the Wildfire S ROM is like porting the Aria ROM to Wildfire.
It's almost impossible.
No one knows whether it is impossible yet as no one has the wildfire s... it could be possible despite the resolution difference... probably not but we will have to wait and see

Here is a better system dump of the wildfire s rom which someone confirmed in evolution 4g forum

Can the dumps be modified to fit the wildfire? Maybe not the entire Rom but features of the Rom itself?

[Q] [RomRequest] Sense 4.0

Hello all,
I was just wondering if anyone had a Sense 4.0 ROM for the WFS in dev yet.
Sense 4 is ICS only
We have no working hw acceleration in any dev ics rom yet. so to say: miles and miles away.

resizing is one major problem , but don't forget the Kernel ! that's the important part which is probably harsh , btw , Sense 3.5 Runnymede could have been very good if ported to WFS or the evo 3d , but still kernel stuff , actually i guess Samsung's galaxy mini roms could be ported easily since it has a similar display size + an ARMv6 processor which will have a similar kernel i guess ...

Kernel 3.0 is still in development, but if we can get the hwa working, this would be a big step and so we could port sense 4.0, I personally dont like it. But thats my opinion. Samsung Galaxy Mini, thanks for the infos, didn't know that. going to see which great rom they have.
Not going to happen from me unless HTC release a mdpi phone with sense 4 on it.

Sense 3.6 thoughts?

WHATS EVERYONES THOUGHT ABOUT IT. THIS WILL about 95% chance be our version with ics.
I think its nice but if it slows down again its crap

I think it'll be fine. Once we get it, we'll be seeing sense 4 ports too.

LOL, there's 3 versions of sense I like: 2.1, 3.0 desire s version, and 4.0. Pyramid 3.0, MT4GS 3.0, Espresso 2.1, 3.5, bliss sense, etc. all suck IMO.
I think it's ugly. I don't like it. I like how Engadget's review put it in saying that it's inconsistent on how HTC implimented its features into ICS.

like here for instance.
Ummm, you talkin about look or functionality?

If Sense 4.0 is much leaner than 3.6, why wouldnt they want to put 4.0 on our phones ESPECIALLY. I mean in theory, our phones shouldnt be as quick as the Rezound, who is getting the leaner software. Doesnt make a lot of sense if you ask me.
Haha, the sense were getting doesn't make "sense". Lol

HTC says that the reason why some of the current HTC phones aren't getting Sense 4.0 is because of the image chip technology added to the HTC One series.

they make that execuse with every single update that they dont give ie our gen phones cant have sense 3.5 because of hd limitiations yet the htc rhyme has virtually identical specs and launched with it
they just want a selling point for their newer phones

The rezound is getting 3.6, I'm using it right now actually. I like, it pretty nice, but 4.0 is much nicer, after playing with it, I'm really excited for a fully functional port of it. If the inc2 can handle 3.5 from gb, it can handle ics 3.6 really well

Well it affected many functions of the phone I doubt it
Using this on my Desire S. Much much much faster than 3.5.
This ROM is perfect because it has the same specs as our phone.
Why do you want a One X port? We will need to resize images etc, and will be slower as its designed for a quad-core phone, we are only on a single core, with less RAM.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
you are right. Its damn fast. But however, the ROM is just as fast, because a lot is missing (Widgets, Lockscreen etc.). It is not so comfortable as the real Sense 3.5 or 4.0. The sense here is 4.0 light, which is similar to Sense 2.1
The One X, based on real Sense 4.0 Engine

Already been using it... I was using it since October, when the first Sense 3.0 ROMs were available
Sense is laggy when opening notifications, app drawer etc. Not like 4.0
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium
Not sire what you guys mean with laggy... Im come from desire.. and for sure...i know what lags are.. on desire also aosp roms have lags.. and now i have a phone with soo much speed.. no lockscreen lags.. even if a call comes.. i can push the symbol really smooth into the ring.. no slide lags during slide between homescreens.. i always use much htc widgets... After i play some 3d gameloft game.. no lag... I dont need data2ext scripts.. as there is engouh internal mem.. even in gameing no lag.. eg : asphalt, nfs, and other...mmmhh.. but im on stock rom @the moment 1. 05
Anyway.. also would like to see a sense 4 rom... Will look if i get some time free.. hope some other want work on that too.. maybe we can use the xe version.. and combine with kernel and hw drivers from sense 3. 6 (which allready work on our phones)...was a idea...
Also we can do some kernel optimations.. @the moment only for gb... So it would be nice again if we get official ics and also get the kernel as source...
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using XDA
Well ics kernel source for xl should be out soon as official ics dropping soon. These so called lags for me are non existent and maybe some are expecting too much. Rosie was and will always be a memory hog and any widget can cause maybe a slight delay in transition. No roise is ever smooth no matter what is done to it.

with kind regards
just downloaded...hope we get the official update soon...if so...one of all devs here should make a development thread...so we can speak together instead of each individually...so we can make ics sense 4 to work...there are also roms for desire hd out...but with things not working...we are in a better situation...we get a ics update...so we have original drivers...etc...so we should have a better start....
good to have custom recoverys...so we can do a nand backup...go back every time back to daily driver in testing

Ice Cream Sandwich w/Sense 3.6 or 4.0?

I'm going to get an Evo 4g soon from a friend who doesn't need it, and I've been searching for a custom ICS Sense 3.6 or Sense 4.0 like on the new HTC ics phones.
I haven't found anything however, so if someone could find or create a sense 3.6/4.0 rom for the Evo 4g, I would appreciate it.
there is no ics sense 3.6/4.0 roms as of yet for the evo 4g
we are still missing a kernel. we have to wait for some source to be released so our devs can make a booting kernel, or at least try to port one....
btw our best bet would be to try to port the One V sense 4.0A since the one v matches our specs in hardware terms like proccessor speed and ram. so that should run pretty smooth on our evo 4g

Thanks for the quick reply, but I remember hearing that the One V's sense was cut down compared to the One X and One S. Eh, no big deal, what I really want is sense but without that weird dock.

That rom doesn't work on the evo
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
If and when an ics sense Rom (3.0,3.5,6,4.0) it would be nice. But do not expect it to run well. Would be an act of god if it was somewhat smooth being that energy and warm 2.3, both sense 3.5 gb roms are borderline laggy IMO. While the devs for those two roms are AMAZING, theres just only so much this phone can do with its limited hardware which is one of the reasons it will not be receiving an ics ota. When some sort of source kernel drops someday god knows when, devs will make it work. Wish I still had my EVO to test out when it happens. I miss it
