SPB is memory HOG. just a friendly reminder...
in a nut shell 2.3 is a Ext4 ROM so it store information differently than 2.2 ROMs which are Ext3 ROMs. Which makes the more effective, and quicker at doing task.

according to my calculator the difference is .1

As I told the last guy who asked this (searching this thread is very helpful, btw) no, there sadly is not a Sense Gingerbread Rom available yet. I assume there will be once a sense based phone gets gingerbread officially from htc (probably the evo or desire hd).
Ya I saw there was none but I though I was missing something. Thanks a lot

What exactly does Sense provide? Just prettiness? Or are there other features?

Google: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Sense
Short answer: Mostly how things look: desktop, lockscreen, launcher, etc...And some widgets built in.

Sense also has several really good apps. I've looked for apps that are similar in the market, but I haven't really found any that equal functionality and polish compared to the stock sense apps.

[Q] HTC Evo 4G 2.3 Sense Gingerbread Rom??

Hi everyone.
I'm looking for a Rom for my HTC Evo that is running 2.3 and that has sense.
My buddy told me about a Rom called Sensation? Not sure if it's out yet.
He also told me that Cyanogenmod has a Rom called Cyanogen Nightlines? That's running 2.3 Gingerbread.
I like sense though I've been looking for a long time for a 2.3 build with sense. Are there any? Or are they all without sense?
Thanks for your help
CM-7 is gingerbread but has no sense whats so ever its all AOSP. As for 2.3 sense it has not yet been released so you won't find any roms yet afaik

i think your buddy is yanking your chain about the sense 2.3 rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943903
You will not find a 2.3 sense rom until one is leaked or released by HTC. CyanogenMod is based off of the AOSP source code and is close to stock Android.

You think it's better to get CM7? Or Just download the 2.3?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877653
Not sure
that is just up to you and your opinions.... most of the 2.3 ROMs have some bugs and issues....CM7 is a little more stable. and launcher Pro is really great for $3. analog sense clock widget is a good replacement, but it does not have the animation!

oh..haha yeah didn't see that. I'm going to give it a shot
hopefully CM7, and 2.3 look the same no?
Not at all. As said, CM7 is based on stock Android 2.3, so it's AOSP. That big flip-clock that you get on a brand-new HTC phone is part of Sense. Search Google Images, plus check out the threads for each ROM to get an idea of what it looks like before you flash.
edit: there may be a *few* similarities, but they are quite few.

Sillian rom?

What happen to it? I don't see the Rom forum here no more...

Was removed due to piracy with some apps, as well as hyping up the Sense widgets on a AOSP launcher, yet that wasn't true.
Mods, can we leave this thread here for a TINY bit, just so anyone else looking can know?

It's really just a Sense based ROM, with an AOSP launcher. Has a bunch of stuff removed, like the Rosie.apk, etc, but when you actually go to add widgets on the default launcher, none of the sense Widgets are actually there.
Anyone try version 4 which supposedly includes the HTC Camera app?

yes because having sense widgets is impossible without the full sense rom frameworks etc.

It DOES, because it's a SENSE Rom, lol. All of the HTC Apps work .. because it's sense. The widgets however don't work, as most suspected they wouldn't. At least not for me.

well if there were sources to the sense apk/ frameworks or the overall sense roms from htc, then maybe it would be possible, but as we all know that is closed source. so a rewrite to make them work is not very likely to work.
btw glad you'r waiting for the liquid_metal rom, you wont be disappointed.

Also Running MikG with stock Kernal and the Sense 3.0 is pretty solid. Lock Screen slide to open apps would be nice, but otherwise its really complete and my favorite rom out there currently.

Kinda scary sending OTA with the internal space limitations, unless something has been figured out. Probably just wishful thinking for those who are not here...loving the MikG myself.

One thing you have to keep in mind, is that it's not sense 3.0 that was taking up all the space, but instead it was the 3d apks, such as the fusions which alone was taking up 49mb, yes granted be those apks play a big role in the new sense, but would the be required for our phone, probably not.

That fusion.apk affects the lock screen, the 3D clock widget, just to name a few so I would say its pretty important.

If you lose the weather animations you pick up 60mb. I would gladly do without them to have most of the rest of sense 3.0
The lock screen and widget would still function
full sense 3.0 i think is for updated hardware only

Highly unlikely.
I doubt it, you need at least sense 2.1 for those 3.0 elements to work. EVO is still on sense 1.0.
Lmao.
I love these forums man.
Everybody (for some silly reason) complains about how the newest OTA only has Sense 1.0 and how "disappointed" they are with the update.
Then we get information that MIGHT mean some kind of sense update and everyone just refers to an aftermarket ROM...
Silly.
i think there will be no more updates for the evo.

the update sucks in comparison to the current aosp 2.3.4 builds we already had.
i'm still puzzled as to why it was only sense 1.0 when the shift for a full 2.1 leak .
yea it's to get people to upgrade ... still lame
and i have to ROFLMAO at the "i think there will be no more updates for the evo"
i understand the e3D will released soon but i really don't thing sprint will abandon the evo it's still selling to well

I agree with you on the vanilla part. However there are something's of sense that I like. Like the text selector I think it is superior to aosp. I would love to run a sense 3.0 rom without the lockscreen. That ring annoys the crap out of me.
