Would there be a SenseUI available for the N1?
Does HTC have any intention on releasing an official 2.1 N1 rom?
I hate to get it flashed just to find out that the noise canceling or BT dont work.... That was little pain with the MyTouch..
This isn't development . Hopefully, we can keep this dev area cleaner than the Dream's. . .
Why would you want to put SenseUI on a Nexus? That's blasphemy
Why, for the bloat, of course.
I posted in here because I was wondering if anyone will be working on this type of ROM... so it is development related in a way.
SenseUI has WAY better interface than plain android. I love it but it runs sluggish on MyTouch. Obviously the N1 has the hardware to support this and not even flinch.
The new 2.1 SenseUI got leaked for the Hero. I was wondering if someone would be cooking a rom for the N1 with it. =)
But seriously HTC's widgets are the best!!!

to asnwer one part of your question, no, HTC will not be making a senseUI ROM as this is a google experiance phone. Much like the G1 and MT3G, they wont be getting a SenseUI ROM upgrade.

OH boy Cyanogens over here too!
i was sceptical on buying this phone as if cyan would be here workin with us then i just seen his post..5 seconds later i just bought this phone...arriving 2-3 business days.. lOL
Go Cyanogen!
Exactly, I saw him buy it, and off I went. I wonder how many he's selling for Google? lol.
Seriously looking forward to his new creations from this beast.
I do agree, Sense would be pretty BA if possible.
a sense rom will be made, just a matter of time

from your mouth to gods ears...
The sense ui is the bomb. I own the mytouch and have Qteknology's rom installed and although the sense ui is a tad bit slow on it, i REFUSE to go back to the donut ui.
I wish i could find a faster sense rom for my MT3G with full exchange support.
The second i hear N1 has the sense ui i will be all over it.
Not an official one but I would assume that when the Bravo is released it would be pretty easy to port the rom from that over as it's basically the same phone...
hahaha i love how cyanogen has like a flock of followers. tweet "jumping off bridge" and a lot of people would die. yeah actually i couldnt decide whether or not to buy this phone...i had the money but still its a LOT of money and not that big of an upgrade from my g1. dont analyze that comment i know its more amazing in every way its just...i had a hard time deciding if the upgrades / speed was worth $550.
seeing cyanogen get it...kinda put me over the edge...so its coming tomorrow. hahah.
on another note, i feel that cyanogen should finally play with sense/rosie/whatever. i think he stayed away from it on g1 cause it was too slow...but i dont think that will be an issue anymore . so hopefully he includes it...or pieces of it...cause some of their stuff is really cool and would be amazing on this fast phone.

Okay, maybe all of you people just missed the videos of this phone running Android 2.1. I don't understand how you can say Sense UI is better than the 2.1 version that the nexus is running. I mean, live wall papers is enough to get me over the animated widgets. I can't explain it, but I was watching the press conference and what they were doing with the photo gallery was amazing. I like the lock screen on 2.1 better than I do the Sense 2.0 lockscreen. The drag to answer is cool. Just take another look at some of the demo videos. I don't think there is much comparison.
OMG I GOT THE PHONE. and sense is different / better IMO. i havent looked at it in awhile but the widgets were crazy (better than the battery-eating live wallpapers)...and the dialer was definitely better and i dont remember the lockscreen but i think it was cool...idk whenever i used sense i loved it except it was too slow.
I hope I can have Hero's SenseUI on my N1. The new SenseUI for Espresso / 2.1 is quite ugly IMO.
But that is still way better than the vanilla 2.1 UI. No doubt about it

Sorry man. Sense UI is where it's at!
Just think, everything 2.1 can do, Sense can do it better. You can have your cake and eat it too, and then get extra fat on the ice cream and potato chips sitting on the side. Why stop there...
Personally I can't stand Twidroid in comparison to HTC's Peep App, and I love the way home screen looks in comparison to Vanilla Android. Cmon already! Sense Sense Sense it.

This settles it..definately getting a nexus one instead of a new laptop!
btw maybe a crossbreed between sense&the nexus UI could be made
its a hard decision for me , i love the live wallpapers&the way photos look but i also like the sense animated widgets
We already have Froyo (CM6) but not with Sense.
Desire is getting 2.2 Froyo with Sense Update this weekend.
Also Evo is getting it Ago. 3 but that one cannot be ported or I'm wrong?
It can be ported to Hero?

Which Sense apps? There are great replacements for almost if not all of them.
I loved Sense and would not flash an AOSP Rom, but once they released the first build of CM6 back in June I flashed it and kept it on my phone for 3 weeks. I installed launcher pro and beautiful widgets along with some other apps that I thought were decent like extended control widget. I got sense deprived and flashed a sense rom back on, but found myself reinstalling launcher pro because I like dock a lot more than Sense. And people can say that they can make a ROM with Sense just as fast as froyo are lying. I tried everything I could to get it as fast as froyo but was unable too. I have DC running right now, because I am working on porting something over from the EVO. Once everything is working on CM6 I will flash again.
The only thing that may be good is to get the HTC framework working with froyo and then you can still use the HTC apps, but other than that you can find alternative widgets that are close to or better than the HTC widgets

IMHO, the only one Not replaceable is the VVM. (and no, GoogVoice is not a great alternative/just as good, frankly. the number forwarding shell game, redundant emails, txtx, etc, annoying. and simply not as responsive or "easy to use") I hate to say it, but it was this feature that sold me on this phone. of course since I have found other reasons to love it.
everything else can be replaced easy. (in fact, msg me w/ your email, I can send a pack...)
personally not using Froyo just yet, looking forward to a Sense port as well... but I can wait.
Sorry guys but the topic here is not if you like Sense or Not...
The Topic is....
If it is possible to Port HTC Desire Froyo with Sense that is going to be released this weekend????
It can be ported to Hero?

golly, sorry to have totally sent your thread into offtopic there, buddy, but to answer your question I think:
well, it really depends on what phone its being released for... as far as I know, whats coming out is for the EVO, Desire, etc... and as darchstar said in this thread:
darchstar said:
u guys r such n00bz . we can't port an htc evo rom cuz its optimized to run on snapdragon armv7 arch. it will never boot with those libs. our hopes for a 2.2 sense rom would be a froyo legend rom, or a froyo espresso rom, as those both have libs optimized for armv61/armv5te

and the desire also runs the snapdragon, so... no.

Ok Thanks!
No porting the desire is not worth while. The legend will be the one I and several other dev's are waiting for this will get ported to the hero.

Has anyone successfully made the screen shutdown animation work on the leaked gingerbread rom? I see posts in other device forums for a modified framework-res.apk that enables it on stock roms. Anyone know of one for the Evo?
I'd personally like a framework-res that enables the battery % and shutdown animation without any other changes, but would happily settle for one that just enables the shutdown animation.
A buddy of mine was all excited about how he got the 2.3 update for his DroidX. He was super-pissed when he realized they didn't include the screen-off/on animations, haha

I thought those animations were 2.3 aosp only. If they could have been ported to 2.3 sense wouldn't someone have done it already?
~ d3rk
I thought it was a defacto feature?
i thought they came in with the package too. man that sucks!
Don't have an answer for you, but I'm amazed by just how much I love those animations. They seem like such a small little thing, but it puts a smile on my face every time I turn my phone on or off.

The screen off animation is present on the 2.3.3 Gingersense build with sense 2.1 by Tmartin over in the dev forum.
For whatever reason, it seems that HTC and Motorola (and probably Samsung) didn't want to include it in their updates.

Its gingerbread?
Security fixes, improved user interface, etc etc etc...mostly developer related updates.
I'm sorry gingerbread was an overall incremental update for the end user but...yeah...
Security fixes alone are worth it.
You think HTC is going to put Sense 3.0 on the EVO 4G?

not a chance. IMO I think they locked the bootloader with this ota update for the same reason,so people would buy newer phones. I may be alone, but if I can have the same software as the newest phone out on my OG EVO, why buy a new phone? lol

Says who? Reviews say there isn't much to 3.0 compared to the previous releases
http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/27/htc-sensation-review/
So what can't the Evo handle? A better lock screen? More app shortcuts? More weather animations? Riiiiiiight....
There's nothing it adds that our device can't support
The kernel is complete so the brightness fix for novatec panels is here and finally we can get some custom kernels in the coming weeks

Go try one of the 3.0 roms in the developers section.
HTC wants a snappy, user friendly interface for the masses. 3.0 on your Evo is too slow to waste your time on.
Your Evo is now too outdated to run everything HTC is gonna be bringing to the table from now on. You either accept you won't be getting every new update, or you buy a new phone.
"3.0 on your Evo is too slow to waste your time on."
Maybe i missundestand what you said, but my EVO runs 3.0 really well.

Really? What ROM are you using?
I tried it once a few weeks ago and was less than impressed.
The 3.0 rooms are steadily becoming more stable. I tried the virus rom two weeks ago and though cool it was not quite ready for primetime. The best seems like rooms that have sense 2.1 with some 3.0 goodies thrown in.
They figured the brightness bug should fix so let's send and update that has a few numbers changed, and a few things here n there, tweak it a bit and bammm GB OTA. Just to get every one to leave the alone. Lol

You just said "some" 3.0 Sense goodies... What fun is that. I'd buy the new Evo 3d our newer.

i tried GB with Sense 3.0 last Thursday.. I love sense 3.0 the lockscreen alone was worth it. the camera was really nice. and a few other things. I want sense 3.0!
to bad ... it was not stable enough for me to be a daily driver.
Sense 3.0 is a memory hog... and causes sense to FC a lot!
my guess our evo RAM of 512mb.. is the real issue here. That is why only a portion of sense 3.0 will make it to evo OG.
i cant wait for the devs to make it more stable.... i know they will.

There is a certain standard of performance that HTC wants to uphold and the EVO with sense 3 will simply fall short of that standard. I've used all the 3.0 roms and none if them run as smoothly as sense 1.0. They may be "good enough" for some, but most users expect a higher level of performance and would like more RAM/ROM left on their device to run more than just the UI.
Tapa tapa tapa
i gave ezone's version of the virus kingdom rom a try and it was really laggy but now im on mik g v1.0 and tho its not completely sense 3.0 it has some features like the weather lockscreen with the ring that's really stable and quite fast, it doesn't have the carosel (can't spell lol) but thats not a huge deal at least for me. but yea if ya'll wanted to give a 3.0 version that's fast and stable with alotta memory leftover a run try mik g v1.0/v1.1
I am going to give the 3.0 sense roms a little more time before I try one. I am using deck's gingerbread and it seems to be working fine. I would like to have sense also...especially the screen unlock, I may try to find out if there is a way to make the sense screen lock work on what I am using now.
Sorry if this has been asked before so please don't flame me. But, are there any good, stable NAND Froyo roms on here that have Sense 3.0 built in? Reason why I ask is I like the added stuff on 3.0 but, I don't want a Gingerbread rom since they have the graphic glitches with Sense. When that gets ironed out I will flash to gingerbread. Until then I will just stick with Froyo.
Nope. If you want sense 3.0 u need a gingerbread rom or stick with that until the desire gingerbread sources are released in a few weeks
Ok thanks for your answer Drama. The reason I asked is I looked at a review of the AT&T HTC Inspire 4G and it said that it was running on Froyo but it appeared to have Sense 3.0 running on it.
