is it possible to port sense to our nexus ?
That would be considered Warez... So it may be "possible" but wouldn't be completely legal as HTC sense is not Open Source like Android.
People port things like this all the time back and forth. Yeah it kind of is "warez", but xda seems to turn a blind eye to it.
Once HTC releases an ICS update for one of its phones, then you may see one pop up for the GNex. I doubt you will until then.
I thought we were buying GN to get all stock ...
but in my opinion it would be awesome to see sense on this screen
so maybe there is a chance to get it work ..

There already is a ics release the rezound was dropped ages ago http://androidadvices.com/update-htc-rezound-99-stable-ics-android-401-custom-rom-firmware/
Sense4All is team of developers looking to get sense 4.0 on all Samsung devices so we may have more options for our arsenals. They are on the verge of releasing a Galaxy S3 Version but are having problems getting internal storage and WiFi to work. If you are a developer who is interested in helping the project come along further please to to their website sense4all.info and see if you could throw aroung some ideas with their devs it'd be a shame to let the work and idea go to waste.

Wow this is great. Coming from HTC device I'm sure missing sense and would love for this to take off.
we need to get this project more known

See that button in the top right that looks like an X? The OP can press that button because sense on samsung is sacrilege.
I'm willing to bet this will only work for the international version because of the LTE RIL.

I came across that site a couple weeks ago and it doesn't look very promising so far. Their furthest along ROMS, for devices that have been out for a long time, are still barely functioning. But maybe if they throw enough people at the SGSIII, they can get something that works OK by the time my warranty is up in a year and I dive into different ROMS.
I'm definitely going to keep my eye on this, because TouchWiz sucks balls... but it's going to take more than just booting with pretty much nothing working before I get my hopes up.
I'd help if I could since I'm one of the guys who wants this to come to fruition, but I have no development skills at all. I hope you guys can get it worked out though and look forward to seeing the finished product.

Verizon doesn't have a One X
And the only other Sense 4 device on Verizon just came out (after the deadline for unlimited data) and isn't really aimed at the same market as SGSIII/One X anyway.

You are? I think touchwiz is an improvement over sense (not saying TW is awesome or anything, most ROMs have better UIs). I was in a Sprint store looking for a Case-Mat Pop (kickstand) for my phone a few days back, and I played around with the Evo LTE. I was really unimpressed with the latest Sense and was glad I went Sammy for this 2 year go around.

Removable battery, expandable memory, & AT&T exclusive...
I'll admit TouchWiz 4 has REALLY improved. But, Sense, even with its problems, still has a lot of function that's hard to let go of.
Would it be easier to get on the US variants?
I only say that because put the Adreno graphics on the S4 chips. I remember the NS4G Sense ports having issues with graphics because of the Hummingbird processor.
|Trolling with a smile|
Went with sammy for the removable battery mainly. The first couple of days with the s3 without a spare battery was killing me. Ofcourse it was a new phone so I was playing with it a lot and trying out different roms etc and battery went down fast. Plus I still had to use it to make calls and text so I had it hooked up to a charger everywhere I was (home, work, car). I was always afraid of it going down to 40% battery lol. Anyway after getting a spare OEM battery + charger all is well again. No more worries specially when I went out.
Touchwiz isnt bad but sense just looks nicer to me and not having to install extra widgets (twitter, facebook, weather) was nice. Also like the weather lock screen. I miss that.
Anyhow I'm now with tmobile and Im hoping these guys will port it over to all the carriers and not just sprint.
I really like the look of Sense 5 and I would definitely love to try it out, but I don't know if it would be possible to port it over to the international One X since it has entirely different interiors. What do you guys think?

Considering HTC refuses to acknowledge things like the green tint issue that some users are experiencing when they updated to jellybean, ignore GPL by not releasing sources, releasing updates for their phones literally years too late (like the amaze receiving ICS like a year late) I think it's safe to assume that they'll either ignore the One X completely or release it a few years from now.
Either way, I'm pretty sure this is the last HTC phone I ever buy.
reliable only on XDA not on HTC
when we have great team of developers here on xda why we need official one???but in terms of releasing updates we all know HTC.....
Well, my questions wasn't about the official update, I asked if you guys think that the devs will be able to port it fully. Not just skins and tiny segments of Sense 5, I'm talking the full interface.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
yeah im also looking forward to experience sense 5 on my one x. it is said that it is lighter than sense 4+.
i hope it comes real soon.
Since the HTC One has the exact same screen resolution and we have 3.1 kernel, i'm sure we should get full sense 5.
The only limitations are the HTC One's hardware specific features.
Team Venom Epic-Sauce + Sense 5....
You tell me how awesome that is going to be

The HTC One doesn't have the same screen resolution... It has 1080p and we have 720p. It just has the same screen size (4.7 inch) which is practically irrelevant when porting.

hi folks,
the german tech site techstage.de was able to ask htc directly on the london release party.
they said that there will be definetly an update for the devices one x, one s and one x+.
they also mentioned that this update wont got all the features he htc one got, but i think this will be mainly the new htc-tv feature that allows u to use ur device as a remote (because we dont got an infrared sensor).
we'll see...

Hi friends
now i have htc hd2 and i want to buy a new phone, and now the two handset doubt one x and nexus 4. If you help me?
Compare them on internet, go to a phone store and put them next to eachother. Decide which fits you the most.
This is a personal opinion. Nobody can decide what phone you should buy.
You can add HTC one in that list as well.
If you want fast updates and good custom ROM support, go for the N4.
HTC is not particularly good with those two areas.
This is not a personal opinion, it's a fact.
Sent from my One X using xda premium
I used to use a HTC HD2 from 2009 Nov, still have my hd2 in good working condition. Upgraded to HTC OneX in 2012 April.. no regrets yet.
I'm not sure about N4, pardon my ignorance.. but I do have friends with latest android devices from samsung/ motorola etc. I always do get the most awesome roms/tweaks/themes thanks to the wonderful community at XDA.
I personally love Sense and HTC One X lets you run the latest Sense with its full glory without any lags, if you ask me having an option to run Sense is itself worth selecting HOX over N4, you can always switch back to AOSP if you ever dislike it.
Additionally the image sense chip on HOX is awesome.. I can always vouch that I get the best pic with my slim mobile
Only the single issue with HOX is it doesn't have S-Off yet, that means once you unlock, no way of going back to a state where you can proof that you haven't unlocked your phone. That might be the only reason, why my next device might not be a HTC. But honestly, I'll miss sense.

Same here.
Samsung/Sony next for me...
Really want one of the new xperia's !! TAKE IT IN THE BATH !!!
Apart from nexus devices, most carrier upgrades leave a lot to be desired timescale-wise. Wouldn't recommend sony for quick upgrades, or customer service(talking from experience...).
It's fairly straightforward though. There are no high-end phones from 2012/13 that will disappoint performance wise so try them out and see which you prefer.
samsung has maybe faster updates, problem is they are so bad that instead of that i wait some weeks more for htc updates and get best out of the phones htc is still the best in all
As a nexus owner I can say that nexus experience is unparalleled. It represents absolute customizability and control over how you want your device to be. Then again HTC and Sammy has better cameras, possibly better displays. You can calibrate nexus 4 display and make it look as good or better than one x or s3.
Ultimately like the previous comments I'd suggest try before you buy.

one x display is the best which was know where seen before...also the n4 can't be better as the one x screen...and s3 screen is bad like sh*t from a dog with unlocked bootloader we can also customize our phones like we want...but only if we knew what we are doing like for the n4
I am using One X now and will upgrade to another HTC phone because the company is in a bad condition financially and I want to support the it. If HTC hoes bankrupt where else would you get skins as good as sense I don't wanna live with crapwiz stock android is good and fast but it gets boring pretty quickly sense is fast too and beautiful.

I have returned my one x twice under warranty with just flashing a nandroid of stock and relocking the bootloader. Device shown the security alert but no questions asked. First for the WiFi squeeze issue for which they fixed and replaced the back case. Looked brand new. Then I just fastbooted the unlock token and rooted again. Second return for signal / no imei number for which I got a new motherboard. Both jobs took 5 days - send and return. Very pleased with customer service of HTC. I'm in UK if that makes any difference.

i ditched my n4 for the one..been using htc devices since the tytn II and to be honest the only thing i miss in nexus 4 is its flawless animation but then..thats something that could be added later
So guys finally its official:
HTC OneX and OneX + will not receive any further updates.
Its officially announced by HTC now.
"We can confirm that the HTC One X and One X+ will not receive further Android OS updates beyond Android 4.2.2 with Sense 5. We realize this news will be met with disappointment by some, but our customers should feel confident that we have designed both devices to be optimized with our amazing camera and audio experiences. -HTC"
Update: the only HTC One X variant that will be updated to Android 4.3 is the HTC EVO 4G LTE on Sprint.

But this just confirmed what I expected and so this will definitely be my last HTC device. Too bad I liked the build quality.

Well. Its a quad core it could not handle android 4.4. Wait cm is running great. Well they would need a big team to update to kk. Wait thomy updated to cm kk all by himself.
All these just proves that htc did not learn anything. thought they could be it you know the company that cares trying to give out the best for the lowest price and keep it updated as long as possible. Instead they are just like everybody else.
My dad bought a samsung tv today. It could not run the youtube app no matter what. I called samsung and they said it is not a problem from their side but from the developers of the app. Ok so f off and tnx for false advertisement (for 2 months). Then the wifi would not work. Called them again they said if it isnt 5m from the router (visual distance) it wont work. Which actually means hey you have a really crappy wifi chip so thats how we protect ourselves so we dont need to replace it.
Dont know where im going with it? I think that if we dont stand up to the industry and demand changes like i dont know a htc xda program for example or everyone slaps ceo of samsung for everytime youtube wont start, we are going to end up in a ditch from where we will not be able to come out. For christ sake i cant even connect a htc phone to a samsung tv anymore. And that should be normal???

Its a hard lesson learnt, only buy Qualcomm based chipset phones from now on. nVidia gives fancy names to their chipsets, however they are pathetic when it comes to supporting their chipset.
I think it has to do with HTC also.. Dont blame just nvidia. if HTC wanted they could have updated the phone as fas as i know. Thomy's ROM is working fine on hox and so does slimkat. Why don't HTC discuss it out with nvidia and both could have worked hard to give an update.
But see they both (HTC and nvidia) dont give support to old devices and try to work hard on throwing new devices every then and now. If they would have worked that hard (or even less than that) on giving support to hox, it might be a good decision..
Hox is a solid performing device which HTC d#tched early..

It's not enough to look good for the first year until the next device comes out and then suddenly drop almost all support. What happened with the Desire models, Sensation models and now HOX models will also happen to the One when the next "flagship" is announced.

They sure as hell aren't getting that money from me.
I see a main cause that HTC decided to not update our phone anymore in the fact that 90% of the users of a phone are just the basic users, who just leave everything on their phone as it was delivered. Only thing I see my friends changing on their Android phones are the wallpaper and their app shortcuts. Some of them change their widgets, some don't. And out of my whole circle of friends I am the only one who knows what a custom ROM is and what the most up to date Android version is. So why should HTC Update our device any further if the only people really concerning about these updates are "those geeks over at xda developers". If things were the other way around and 90% of the HOX owners around the world would trample HTCs HQ for not updating our phone and would take the same step as me and were not going to buy any other HTC phone anymore they would sure as hell update it to KK.
But as people dont do so, why should they update it.
The thing is that old versions of Android also mean more security concerns and possible app compatability issues in the future. Things like this are a concern for the average user and not so much us who know how to tinker with custom roms.
And my friends who have Android phones and who I'd call average users complain about lack of upgrades just as much as me. They still want their phones to have the newest features, up to date looks and all that. HTC being so horrible with updates means that people recognize then as a company with lack of support. And people don't pay hundreds of dollars/euros for just more than one years worth of support.

It's not like that. You don't see Samsung or Motorola not updating their old devices just because 90% of the users don't complain.
Samsung is going to update S3 to kitkat. and motorola has already confirmed that old devices are receiving kitkat. those devices don't even have large user base like that of HOX.
