Hey guys,
I've recently discovered a loop hole in the Sense 4 lockscreen on the One X. It would be greatly appreciated if you bring awareness to this issue. Unfortunately, since this is my first post, I am unable to include any links to the YouTube video I have made. Hopefully I can post it as a reply to this thread because its very interesting.
I think I'm the only one that knows about this. So please comment if you have this issue too.
I'm guessing you mean where you can get the ICS entry screen on the security lock?

I would but you haven't explained what the issue actually is yet.....
ICS lockscreen on Sense 4
Yeah the stock ICS lockscreen instead of Sense 4 lockscreen. Has this issue been discussed before?

No, but if your the guy that left a comment on the Engadget post about HTC and left a link to your video too than its your video I've seen.
I wouldn't call it a bug, as it doesn't affect the system in a negative way, in fact I think it looks better then the Sense overlay they added.

Haha small world! I have the Galaxy Nexus and it was my brothers One X. He always tells me to find a way to disable Sense or find a ROM that uses the Stock ICS. He believes that native ICS on the One X would be the best.
I'm loving my Galaxy Nexus, can't wait to get my hands on the Galaxy S 3 and so excited to see what the next Nexus would be like.
It kinda sucks that I can't post the YouTube link here though.

Hey dude, I'm the guy with the funny voice talking about the glitch with the HTC Sense, I've been looking for a Custom ROM which runs on the Vanilla ICS for the One X but I have been unlucky
If you ever come across any good build Custom ROMS please do let me know.
Cheers, and do pass the link around, perhaps someone would know how to bypass the HTC Sense without having to complete it replacing it

Until you get enough posts to include links, you can always get around that by putting spaces in the URL, which people can then remove.

I was going to get the Nexus, but then the One X sorta got dragged into the equation and it was purely because of the displays that I went for the One X. I probably would have gone for the One S were it non-pentile. I don't care what you say, the One X is pure gorgeous compared to the S3

I'd do a search for you, but I'm using my phone at the moment not a computer and I'm extremely busy. If you browse the development section of the One X forums I know for a fact there is a One X Vanilla ROM. Don't bother searching, just go OneX>Development and browse around those top threads, plenty of other ROM's there too. It'll likely be on page 1 or 2.

Yeah I personally didn't like the design of the Galaxy S 3, the One X does look sexy but ever since my Sensation XE I've lost interest in HTC Sense. The Galaxy S 3 interface intrigues me although I hate Touchwiz. Well, I wouldn't mind giving it a try by the time the next Nexus comes out

I agree, Sense 3 was too heavy, Sense 3.5 was a fail and despite being created in tandem with Sense 4, Sense 3.6 really doesn't improve much.
Sense 4, different story. Still unstable, but give it a few months
Samsung's are only fast because they have **** software on then, that's an opinion not a fact. Touchwiz offers NO functionality more than the Stock Vanilla launcher, so why bother?
S3 + Vanilla hits the spot, but so does the One X

The one thing I long for on my phone is the time when the phone is locked. Old devices used to do it, like old Nokia's and the Lumia Symbian devices
For me, Sense improves the overall experience. I see Sense as an OS. Really it is Sense featuring Android, not Android featuring Sense, but that just shows how dedicated to improving and innovating software HTC are, now optimization is the key!
Phones need something like Windows Update, exploits and problems are found all the time, but fixes are never rolled out individually unless they are extremely crucial.

Thanks for pointing the space technique out bro, I was aware of it but could be bothered spacing it as jaaystott has already provided the link.lol
I've noticed a lot bugs mostly with the stock browser which I hardly use (mostly using Chrome), and I think HTC should invest a little more time on it as it's their flag-ship, but I'm also disappointed with how the One S beats the One X in all benchmarks. tsk tsk tsk....
Hopefully a well built ROM (Vanilla ICS) will come along and will get rid of all the heavy stuff in HTC Sense and will give a bit of an extra boost performance wise.

Let's just hope they share the same drivers. I can't wait untill the Wildfire S release. Did anyone else find the 2011 lineup from HTC very dissapointing?
I agree with the (slightly) disappointing line up. On the otherhand they are all nice devices and I would pick one anyday over a Samsung or LG. Some dual core android HTC shift-esque action with honeycomb would be definitely be welcome though.

Although that facebook buttons spoils everything for me
Still, it will be interesting to see if sense 2.0 will be possible to be ported and run on Legend with reasonable performance (Wildfire and Salsa have 512 of RAM - I think, this might make a difference).
ps. Sorry about the links - new user - no privileges to post links yet :/

Personally, I'm a little disappointed with HTC's offerings. And while I love my Aria, I think my next phone will be an Atrix. I love Cyanogen, so finegrs crossed it gets some love from the devs!
FACEBOOK button!?!?! When the hell did a freakin website get privileged enough to get a damn dedicated button on a cell phone??
judging by its similar specs to our legend, i'm very sure our talented chef will ported to our phones very soon. besides, gingerbread is already available to us through cyanogenmod7. fingers crossed and waiting for it. =)
But where can I find tools to port the Facebook button?...

Guys Please have a look at this videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lq5323K514o in which there is no stopping of wallpaper while my Htc Onex(Baught from India ) has stopping of wallpaper each time you change the homescreen!!!
please comment on whats ur experience!!!
looks to me like it is stopping.
Yep
Same issue here, european rom 1,29 xxxx and it2s stopping. Also I tried that live wallpaper on the video but same result
It's sense that is causing the problem if you install another launcher live wallpapers run without issue.

how it is that its stopping now, unless there is some setting by which HTC messed up and its slipped its quality control, I am more inclined to return my handset and go for Samsung!!
Funny thing is I shifted from SGS 2 , I was not at all liking Touchwiz and was coming from Hero, i must say I WAS admirer of htc for their quality and sense, But now I am so much disappointed
HTC are without a doubt aware of this so called "problem". Don't you think that if it's still present after three updates, it's classified as a minor defect? Who knows what was affected in the pre-release software that was at MWC and could be solved by turning off tha LWP animation? If any company waits to have a bug-free software before they release it, they will never release anything. The only bug-free app I have seen so far is 'hello world'

Who said that new phone must be bug free? Of course there are some bugs.
But as far as I can say, this phone beats my previous phone 10-0. Galaxy S was real pain in the ass. Kies updates, wlan, GPS. All those was driving me nuts. Now with One X, everything is like kiss to my cheek. Ota, wlan, GPS, call quality, speed, everything is better. So, that live wallpaper problem is not my biggest consern.
No more Samsung. At all. Not even a tv.

Many AT&T one x owners say that live wallpaper work seemlessly on theirs, please if you have at&T confirm this¬¬!!
Any way on the same note, I have checked out SGS III is store, and to my amazement live wallpaper do not interact with touch, unless I am missing some settings!!, but I used sgs II, so pretty much familiar to TW, any new oweners of SGS III can you pls confirm this!!

No your not wrong. Porting may be easier because the soc is the same so driver's etc will be easier. Most of the work should be done basically since they both use tegra 3. But don't expect it till a while. Especially not from htc unless they pull a surprise.

Froyo was released may 20th 2010 and I can remember it getting it on my desire around mid juli, that's not to bad of htc. I can imagine gb to ics would take more time but the step from ics to jb is about as big as from eclair to froyo

Partly right, but there is a lot more than just the Tegra 3 SoC to require drivers for. It looks as if the overall system updates are fairly minimal (at least compared to GB->ICS which had big driver rewrites). We'll have to see how much can be reused from what we have for ICS and hopefully device tree changes will be minimal.
Might almost be time to start flashing the One X! :victory:
JB will arrive soon because Google announced PDT and JB PDT is already with major manufacturers so you should expect JB soon

Nice new feature in the JellyBean but I don't think that HTC can ever give us the same buttery smooth experience. One more reason why should manufacturers also make available clean Android OS at least as a optional flashable RUU. THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING. do it Google.

Not to be a buzz kill or anything but that wouldn't really work... You would need a new one for every device which isn't possible.. that's why they do just that (well, provide images) for their supported devices, the nexi. It would be up to HTC, and, quite frankly, that's never going to happen as i'ts not in their interest.

The changes in UI would be pretty much the thing which bothers OEM the less...
As they do their own on the top, the major issues for them is the framework in the background (yes, there is an ecosystem behind what you see on the screen ^^)
So, they need to adjust sense etc to the new changes introduced by Jellybean (thinking of the new syncing and triple buffering) But yeah... Normally it shouldn't take long to make a fully bugged and craploaded sense for JB... but they will take 6 month min I'm afraid...
(Or will it be as on the Desire ? -> The phone is not powerfull enough to handle a minor update :silly: )
I'm now on htc one x for a while after gnexus. I like the sense design since my old HTC desire.
A thought came into my mind and I don't know if it is possible: As some apps design doesn't go with with the sense design, I think apps programmer should consider two versions of their apps. One is normal and one is for sense. What do you think?

You might be correct. But some decent apps that are needed and we pay for could do it I think.
As for touchwiz, I believe it looks like pure android where in sense the design is different. For example, one app I'm using "memories" provided a sense theme.
Anyway, this was a thought that I wish it could happen. And, I'm still alive without it too

I'm saying that the reason why apps aren't also developed specifically with Sense in mind is likely due to the fact that the additional overhead is not worth it.
Is anybody as excited as I am about the HTC One? Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing a port to our One X.
Can anybody see a reason why this would never happen?
Good Question. I am also interested. But the first problem should be solved first. It's the screen problem. hTC One has a full 1080p screen and One X only has 720p. So everything is needed to resize.
Sorry about my bad English.

That does pose an issue straight away. But surely it wouldn't be the first time we've seen a cross-resolution port? Then again, none pop to mind
What about starting with Sense 5, or even just some things like messaging etc. All depending of intirgration with the new framework i suppose. We'd really need the input from a developer here.
Android is famous for its abilities to change resolution on demand. In fact its one if the best things in my opinion. Just look at the clambook pro coming out soon, it amplifies your device screen to its own. Source
I'm curious to see if we can port the new Zoe feature for the camera, as i don't know if it depends 100% on the camera sensor of the HTC One, or it might be more of a software implementation, rather than hardware. Saw the video of the new camera interface and features and I gotta say, it's awesome.
Waiting to see if a port will be possible :fingers-crossed:
I hate the look of sense 5 though

Well, like some devs did for the SII initially, we'll have to start with resizing all the images to XHDPI, rather than its 1080P screen.
However, many of the features, like the camera might not work, since it depends on the new Image Sense chip and new hardware altogether AFAIK, so we would need to make or edit custom drivers and libs, which, is very difficult, not impossible tho AFAIK.
Hope this project is a successful one, Good Luck, and I'm here to contribute, of any help/contribution is needed

Thanks but it really would require the help of some really experienced devs and I'm getting the One soon, so maybe I can help from the other side?

You won't be able to port from the HTC One because of the screen res. By the time you finish resizing anything HTC would've released a new phone with Sense 5 and an XHDPI screen. Wait for that, then port.
As for the gallery and stuff it looks like it'd be a imagechip thing after the image has taken and is generated either in the camera app or in the background. If it is a CPU/GPU thing that launches when you use gallery it'll probably drain your battery pretty quickly using it, considering all the images you'll probably have.
If it is an imagechip thing you'll need to hack the camera app to use the old imagechip library. That might not work either though. So test it.

Really no need to. HTC has been answering million of these questions on FB lately.

Yeah we're probably not getting sense 5.
Note how HTC never said the Sense 5 update and instead just said a general update. They have done this with other HTC products like the Sensation and its update to Sense 4. Instead of updating it to sense 4 they made sense 3.5. I see a similar thing happening for this phone.
But let's hope I'm wrong.

Yeah, I thought about the same thing. They are sneaking around the question and responding really wide.. I am sure I have seen one place where they actually said HOX would get it. Will look into it tomorrow.
