Upgrading from leedroid am I better off without sense? - HTC One X

Hi all,
I have been using leedeoid for months now and I have become enamoured with.the idea that my phone would run better stripped of HTC sense.
Is this really the case?
Should I go for a miui or cynogen Rom?
the only thing I would miss is the sense radio and I hear that the radio app I used to use on my galaxy s will take its place perfectly.......
I use nova launcher now anyway....
Can anyone tell me if I would miss any other OS functionality that I'm not aware of that hasn't been replaced yet when I don't have sense based Rom?
Many thanks

Might want to ask over in Modaco though if you are looking for a version from them?
what so good about miui anyway?
i just don't see it as the best rom or anything
to be honest, i like the sense ui more
I personally think it makes a phone into an iphone wannabe. I specifically bought this phone *because* it wasn't an iphone.

The Desire HD is more than capable of running it. It runs like a dream! After using Sense based ROMs for the past few months (Switching to the DHD), it's great to be back using stock Android.
As for the official HTC update, I'd say give it 6months at least. HTC have never been great with updates although they aren't anywhere as bad as Samsung!!
My advice, flash CM7 as soon as you can.
Regards.

No SRS or dolby effect for the time being.. But CM7 have their own dsp manager, which works quite well.. Unless HTC release the source code for dolby and srs effect, or even someone who can crack it..

I have been using CM7 nightlies for about a month now, only one or two minor problems which are hardly noticeable and i havent updated for a week so they have probably been ironed out already. Only hard part is installing CWM3.
Thank u all very much!!

Dev help answer some questions about Sense UI

Hello Dev and everyones, currently I have mytouch4g. I love Sense and want to get LGX2, is it easier to port Sense to LG firmware? Reason I ask because I never see Samsung galaxy s series, 4G, Nexus S have any Sense port all they have is AOSP rom like CM7, Miui etc... Is it because Samsung use different file system? Can sense be ported to LG? Or should I wait and get Sense phone like Evo 3d, HTC Pyramid?
Thank you

Sense isn't open source, that's why you'll never really see it ported to another device. Pretty much the only option would be to get a Sense phone.

Exactly. It's kind of like how you'll never see MotoBlur or Touchwiz on any non-Moto or non-Samsung device (although I don't know why you would want to with those). The reasons all non-sense roms are AOSP is exactly because it is open source, and can be modified and programmed to cater to specific devices.

Does anyone know of a Touchwiz based rom for the Desire?

Nope.

You cannot be serious.

I have forgotten a lot but if I recall it correctly, there is a mod for AOSP ROM to get the touchwiz.
Better ask the other more about this.
out of interest why would you want touchwiz?
almost everyone with a Galaxy S I know doesn't want it either

It is true. I have played for a couple of minutes with the Galaxy S2 and beside the speed due to better hardware, I didn't impressed at all.
I own a Desire and a SGS2 and I have to admitt that TouchWiz4 impresses me a lot more than Sense.

from what ive seen, touchwizz is more functional and more customizable than sense which only 'looks nice' but i dont think it does look that nice
guess it is simply an individual matter
i never tried touchwiz, from what ive seen on videos it doesnt really make me want a SGS2.
one desire developer, baadnewz, recently bought SGS2 but he sold it very soon after and bought HTC Sensation reason: "cant live without sense"
so like i said, everyone likes what he/she likes
It's not that I don't like sense I just wanna try something different. I sometimes get tired of the look of sense and wanna try Touchwiz out. Is it just me or is sense just getting boring their are just so many devices with it on them its no longer fresh.
Sent from my PB99400 using XDA App
If you are bored of Sense and wanna try something new, why don't you try MIUI or AOSP?
Note:
It is also true that I tend to prefer Sense over MIUI, Moto-Blur or Touchwiz.
Isn't Blur dead now?
didn't Moto even rename it?
I will also be trying MIUI after my device is able to be rooted.

[Q]Sense 4 project is dead, right?

Guys,
I know there are many posts like this, but to be clear some of those who prefer to stick to desire rather than one x are hoping for sense 4 including me. Unfortunately shaky discontinued his work and no one is interested so I speak for those sense 4 fanatics that we hope this project is continued again, no ETAs no nagging.

Good luck on this. Just on the other thread I saw someone pleading for Sense 4 like his entire life is depending on it.

I guess some things are too much of a trouble for the devs, think audio was the main issue apart from other stuff of course. And yeah, let it go dude there are already decent ICS roms out there if u want ICS... Btw if you plan on investing in a decent budget phone with Sense 4 I would suggest the One V - bought it for my girlfriend a few months ago and she loves it! And to be quite honest it simply delivers - it is very smooth and fluid, you get the whole sense 4 experience with a very few corners cut, being a few animations here and there and the helicopter view.
I think we can port desire V rom to desire,the spec of desire v is similar than desire
Yes it was a suicide. It didn't find the sense of life.
