[Q] Sense 2.0 vs 3.0

can someone please help me understand the difference between these two? How does Sense 3.0 fit in with Gingerbread 2.3 or 2.4? Does it?

To the best of my knowledge, Sense and Android versions are independent of each other. For our purposes, there is a very high likelyhood of getting a stock upgrade to Gingerbread on the EVO 4G (some say impending OTA very soon), but a low chance of us ever seeing Sense 3.0.

Pretty sure we won't see an official Sense 3.0 for our phones...but one can hope? Some of the 3.0 stuff looks awesome!

I don't think there is much difference between froyo and gingerbread. The froyo kernel still works on GB roms. I believe sense 3 is a GB based rom. 2.0- 2.1 are made in both varieties but it doesn't seem to add anything by being based on GB versus froyo.
Sense 3.0 seems to be suited for tablet also. There are minor changes to the way it works. The lock screen has shortcuts on it, cosmetic changes and I did notice the music player now can download cover art. Other than that I have not noticed any major enhancements. HTC hub is starting to work but gives me problems when using a different skin.

[Q] Fastest Sense 3.0 Rom or Fastest with 3.0 Elements?

Really happy to see all the new roms poppin' up with Sense 3.0 features. Can someone recommend a good one for me. Preferably fast and stable with solid GPS.
Thanks.

I don't run it but the Alliance Kings Rom v7.3 is getting good reviews from users. It's a 2.1 sense base with 3.0 rosie and King has incorporated alot of 3d widgets. To me that's better than trying to run Kingdom but that's JMO.

Really going to be trial and error. What one person considers fast and stable, another might not.
Flash one, use it for a week or so, try another and use for a week or so... etc.

It's not. i love alliance and what i currently use but Mikg is a much more faster and stable rom. Keep using alliance for the rest of the day and you will realize plenty of lag issues and widgets locking up.
I use it because i love there stock rom. its clean and dark. Mikg is much more faster but lacks some 3.0 elements such as the carousel rosie and some widgets i enjoy using. and the rosie for Mikg is that boring grey one and the themes they have for it have been getting some negative results, but thats because there still in beta.
im more of a look guy as everyone knows so i would still prefer Alliance 7.3 but looking for quicker and more stable and not so much looks then Mikg

Best Sense 3.0 ROMs?

I'm still waiting for my EVO 4G (2.3.3) to be rooted. In the mean time, I'm looking for some Sense 3.0 ROMs. What are some of the best? Thanks a ton!
Sent from my EVO 4G

Virus' Kingdom port...and get in line with the wait.

Have you checked out Synergy? It is Sense 2.1 with a lot of 3.0 touches which helps it to run faster than a full 3.0 ROM. It runs smooth and error free. It brings new life to the Evo 4G.

Likewise MikG 2.2. It is also Sense 2.1 with a sprinkle of 3.0 components.
Some have said the full 3.0 are just a bit too much for the 4G.
But try them.
My sister is in waiting line too.
I'm tempted to pick up another phone (As back up or for my wife since I can get the full discount). 3D or 4G. But with neither rooted I'm just waiting for now. Also 3D seems to have some serious issues that would drive me insane. Lower Quality Speaker and Signal Quality. I've seen that go up and down over the years and 4G is pretty good at both. I have no personal experience but it's totally believable.
Sorry to ramble

Thanks guys..I'll definitely check them out. Also, I've taken a look at the PhillyFinest ROM. Should I consider that one too, or should I stick with the ones you mentioned?

I don't think that it's been updated in quite a while.
I prefer Sense 2.1 ROMs with 3.0 elements, it seems more stable because of the drivers, and lighter. You can even flash the 3.0 carousel on MikG and Synergy if you so please.
I use MikG, just because it is odex and seems smoother and more like a "final product" compared to Synergy, but I think that Synergy will be a great ROM when it is a stable release. I think it'll basically be on the same level as Myn's Warm 2.2
Try both MikG and Synergy when 2.3.3 is rooted. Nandroid Nandroid Nandroid.

[Q] Fastest Sense Rom

As of right now what is currently the fastest/smoothest Sense rom that is still being supported by the dev? Any comments are appreciated

As far as still supported you might be hard to find consitency...
My opinions would be for:
TeeROM 3.0 - developers "final" version
Stock+ 3.01 - Not getting active dev but its by far one of the best Sense roms.
McSense 2.6 - Another solid but non-dev rom
Edit: The likelyhood of finding a sense rom 2.1 or higher that is fast on the incredible is very unlikely. Way to resource needy.

My port of MikG is snappy and trouble free. Of course I could be a little biased. Lol. But seriously. It is the best Sense 2.1 + ROM as far as stability and speed. That's why I ported over the newest version for us. Try it at theMikMik. MikG Incredible forum. I think you'll be pleased.

I'd say any of the Sense 1.0 roms should be fine. If you want one without bloat, or many tweaks, Liberation 3.0 would fit the bill. It's been tested for stability. It is the final version though.
McSense is also a good choice for some theming and tweaks.
I just avoid any rom based off of another phone (port). Including Sense 3.0+
Personally I run a custom cm7 kang that I've stripped down and removed everything I deemed unnecessary. Turned off animations, use Launcher Pro, and it flies faster than any Sense rom.

I would have to go with mikg man, this thing flys !

What parts of sense are you wanting intact? If you're simply looking to stay away from AOSP, my experience with Insensitive Minimalist has been excellent. Very fast and designed to be highly customizable. I like it so much for its stability and compatibility I keep flashing back to my backup of that while I wait on issues to get hammered out of ICS. My other dinc is running Stock+, so if you want a ROM that is mostly stock, its also good. Inc Ultimate looks like its worth a try, but I haven't gotten around to it.
Ultimately, "still in development" is something I don't think applies to any sense Rom at the moment, as most of the really active devs seem to have moved on to other devices.

I flashed MikG and so far I'm loving it How is it with Gingertiny kernel?

I haven't tried them all, but have tried a few of the Sense 3.5 roms - and of course my stock Sense 2 roms - Virtuous Unity, Sense...quite slow and laggy.
Also tried BeatMod Bliss Sense - again same story...slow, laggy.
But just switched from G-Lite 2 (non sense rom( to MikRoms MikRunny 1.0 and for a Sense 3.5 based rom it's FAST. Faster than my original slow Gingerbread ROM, actually!
Add Supercharger script and a SDcard partition and you're flying ;-)
Oh I have a Desire Z, so RAM/speed is a real issue. So impressive that a ROM could run anything about Sense 2 at anything but prehistoric speeds :-D

Why is Sense 3.0 more stable on Inc S?

Why aren't any of the Sense 3.0 ROMs for the Inc 2 not as stable as the Sense 3.0 official update for the Incredible S?

well for starters have you actually used both phones? if not you dont have personal experience
in any event, sense 3.0 is an official update for that phone...ie their rom was built by htc for that phone
our sense 3 roms were ported from other devices...and honestly? at least in my experience with regular 3.0 and our trinity rom, it runs really well....just the usual issues that plague ports with data cut outs for some people (area and phone dependant) which isnt *that* shocking given most inc2 users are running on cdma networks and the rom was meant for a gsm-only phone
they do use *slightly* different processors...but if anything ours should be better if not equal...so thats not an issue

Why does cyanogenmod work better on the nexus S than the fascinate?
its based on the official software that shipped with the phone
INCS has a sense 3.0 update from htc, we do not.

My friend has an Incredible S running on official Sense 3.0 so I used his to compare with mine running different Sense 3.0 ROMs. And overall I found his to be more stable by using it. The phones use the same processor. I just don't understand why, as they are both running Sense 3.0 and have the same specs.

Stability is not an issue in regards to just about anything but some data drops

Well I also mean by the lag as well. Apps take longer to respond and lots of stuff in the menus seem sluggish on the Inc 2 with Sense 3.0, compared to Inc S with Sense 3.0 official from HTC.

what roms also, a lot of devs here have moved on to 3.5, you may be comparing an awesome rom to a relatively unoptimized one
