Port coming soon?
I'm sure this will be ported asap, starting with AOSP roms 1st. Then we'll have to wait for HTC and verizon to update Sense to 2.3 for the Inc.
I hope they include the new version of Sense (Desire Z/HD) with Gingerbread, that would be sick!
Okay, sort of a noob question, but I like the new Sense UI on the Inspire 4G, but I can't get an upgrade until 2012, so is there anyway of getting the new version of Sense ported to the Aria?
This will only be possible if htc released a phone with the new sense that has the same hardware as ours

I doubt, for the Aria. With the way HTC handles their products, they will just release a newer version of the Aria leaving the old phones with no updates.
Is wildfire getting the new sense ui v3.0 ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Probably not.
The Sense 3.0 UI is on Wildfire S because the S has a more powerful processor and GPU.
Officially, certainly not. Unofficially, danne_jo, te creator of Wildpuzzle ported the new Sense but unfortunately it doesnt work. The view is that the new Sense requires a newer processor than what the Wildfire has. Still, this is unconfirmed though.
The new sense is made for more recent hardware, but it can denfinily work on our wildfires. The hardware is just OK.
The current Sense on the wildfire is slow and sluggish.
I don't see the new and graphically improved one running any better,
can be port? wildfire s have that. I thınk sense 3.0 work on our wildfires they have enough hardware.
time to get a new phone methinks!
maybe on wildfire s, but probably not on our wildfire
i don't think there will be official one since wildfire s launch. the old phone still compete with new gen wildfire will be bad idea for a company.
pray that danne_jo will give us brighter hope.

Wildfire S has already the new Sense.
do you think the desire z will get an official update to sense 3.0?
Probably will not becouse our ram is not 768mb like desire s.
are we still in the 18 months for updates though?
But this is Sense UI so HTC has no obligation to give a 3.0 update, but I hope and believe they will give us an update like Desire S too
donno
HTC's new entry level phone, Explorer will have 384 Mb of RAM.
It is coming with Sense 3.5, which could be higher in version number yet weaker in features, but if not so, memory may not be an issue.
There are ports, well, ROMs with sense 3.0 and the phone copes with it quite well.
Not the smoothest, but what the heck.
Noone knows if HTC will give a damn about bringing Sense 3.0 to DZ.
But Exproler doesn't even have the 3D page scrolling feature
Surelywe shouldget some for of anupdate with the 18 month dealio with google. Perhaps icecreamsandwich?

HTC Turkey mentioned a few weeks ago that desire z will receive a sense 3.0 update with android 2.3.5
Here is a list of mentioned phones from htc turkey:
1. Incredible S
2. Desire S
3. Wildfire S
4. Desire HD
5. Desire Z
It is pretty safe that this phones will get a sense 3.0 with android 2.3.5 update soon.
lets hope so anyway!

What else? ROM chefs to the rescue
I'd love to see an update, though I hope HTC will do it properly this time and Sense won't be restarting all the time.
Or maybe we'll get Sense 3.5 with ICS? That'd be awesome.
I don't think so. Sense launcher restart all the time after 2.3.3(with Sense 2.1). Sense 3.0 use more RAM than Sense 2.1.
If that update with Sense 3.5 will be nice.
Seein as there was that deal with google and 18 months, i think we will get ICS, and probably sense 3.5, as our devices would handle it.

Good news for all Desire Z owners.
In the last weeks it got still about a sense 3.0 update.
On a question regarding a sense 3.0 update you got everytime the same answer, that they didn't know anything.
today that changed completely.
HTC DACH indirectly announced that something will come to the desire z.
On a question regarding the Sense 3.0 Update for the Desire Z they said:
"Noch ein wenig Geduld bitte. Ich glaube das lohnt sich, ohne zu viel verraten zu wollen "
That means in english:
"A little more patience please. I think it's worth it. Without revealing to much "
I think a update is now very likely.
Maybe even a Sense 3.5 Update.
Lets wait and see
In its official blog, HTC removed from the list of applicants for renewal Desire Z.
Technically Desire Z is capable of supporting Android 4.x easily.
The problem may occur only with the support of corporate interface Sense.
I use a custom ROM with Sense 3.5. Sense 3.5 uses about 70 Mb of RAM. (For comparison, Sehse 2.x uses about 30Mb).
In Memory of Desire Z is not enough to support multi-tasking with Sense 3.5. Solves the problem swap only.
But HTC promised to have declared, and update their devices during the time. This time has not expired for Desire Z. To fulfill its promise of support, HTC would have to develop a special version of Sense for Desire Z. It seems that now they decide that it would cost them less: development Update for Desire Z or the promise of non-support.
Let's see what will come from HTC to the Z. Till then I'm very happy with Virtuous team Trentacinque Beta 2 rom, Sense 3.5 running fine with swap.

On the other hand, we have the HTC Explorer with 512MB RAM, which also has Sense 3.5. So I guess HTC will develop a "lite" version of Sense 3.5 for budget devices.

Did you read this from there? https://plus.google.com/105502178297258827378/posts I think this person is just a liar, he claims that he is working in HTC Sense developer team but has no proof and HTC developers never draw information like this, so there is no reason to believe him for me

That's great! I have just talked with HTC Turkey too and they whispered to me that HTC is going to make a big announcement towards to the end of November to make everything clear about ICS and Sense UI updates
As I have been searching the web, I found this post from HTC.

Was going to post same Great News
I Love U HTC
I'm assuming this would mean an update to at least sense 3.6 as well. It would make little sense for htc to build several different versions of ics sense.

just read the news... i was gonna post it too i didn't expect the DHD to get an official update to ics.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
Yeah just read this on Phandroid, totally unexpected but a very welcome one!
Another things is that the Sensation XL will be released "soon after" the Sensation. So we will probably be getting custom ROM's based off Runnymede before the official one is released!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Good news, everyone!
finally its happening!!!
but i think that as always the cooked ROMS will be batter than the source
Why is everyone suprised!!
HTC is supporting devices up to 18 months of release, the DHD was sold on OCT 2010, furthermore we have enough evidence now of continuous support to their devices
the classic Desire: Eclair > Froyo > Gingerbread || it stops here because of the slow S1 and bottle-necked internal Memory
the DHD: Froyo > Gingerbread 2.3.3 sense 2.1 > Gingerbread 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 > upcoming ICS
Three major android updates! the only surprising part in this is actually our latest Sense 3.0 update which was unexpected, if you look at the Sensation and EVO3D both devices are still officially on the old slow QHD Sense 3.0, the Sensation has many leaked test firmwares including GB sense 3.5 and the beautiful ICS sense 3.6 but officially users are still waiting
and actually EVO3D owners received this as bad news, since they are slated to receive the ICS update in the same time frame as DHD owners given that the EVO3D is highend almost a twin the Sensation sans 3D, it's not really fair to make them wait
The EVO3D situation can be explained, i think it didn't sell so well, while the DHD is their biggest selling Android device so far, still being produced and sold, i doubt they will upset all it's users
as for Desire S owners saying DHD owners are lucky?! why the DHD/DesireS/IncredibleS are twins and we have been receiving the same updates, like the recent Sense 3.0 update
I've seen posts for the last few months with people nagging and saying its impossible ICS will come to DHD, XDA should make a sticky saying, yes people believe it already HTC currently offers the best Android updates/support
If Samsung made such announcement then i would be surprised!
I'm hoping the RCMIX3D team comeback and cook an ICS rom for the DHD.

That's why I really in love with my DHD and sold my Nexus S even after it received official ICS update and several good quality custom ROM based on official ICS (but I don't care, after all vanilla Android is really boring anyways even for ICS, HTC Sense is so much better, trust me ).
I guess that this would be the last major update (ICS 4.0) release by HTC. If HTC decides to release a new firmware beyond ICS, it would be a pleasant surprise for us and that time we will say it's time for DHD to go and welcome a new generation of DHD. ;-)

you honestly can not expect more support from HTC after a stable ICS, 4 major software update including 3 major android updates! no other manufacturer matches this!
The new generation of DHD is here, it will be announced on the 25th!
Their commitment in releasing ICS has definetely locked me into getting HTC all the way.
I mean , Motorola phones definetely has superior build,but their after market support sucks so much you can't even get BEYOND 1 major update for a phone. Don't even talk about Samsung....
