Droid 3

The Motoblur on this looks awesome! why cant we get this version? i hope we get this version sometime.

I think its about the same if not the same as the 2.3.4 blur
Sent via the power of a unicorn's horn.

Looks like the version in our leaked 2.3.4 with a different lock screen.

this looks more fluid and such, from the version on the bionic, and droid x2, and photon. just looks better alltogether. different camera ui as well. different app drawer

Like others said all I see that is different is the lockscreen. I haven't used the new UI yet so I don't see the fluency difference.

Looks more responsive to me. However, ours is technically not out yet... not sure which is worse.

Maybe someone could port the camera app from that. Would be nice to have the panorama and some of the other features on it.

This is a bit offtopic and clutters the forum. On that note, thread closed.

HTC Sense 3.5 screen shot leak

I was gonna say the same, but then again is a matter of choices and preferences, something that should not be forgotten when you are comparing.

Ehh, not a big fan of the round icons. I still like Sense, just not as much since all of the sense reboots I used to get before flashing MIUI.

HTC saying 3.5 will be compatible with all of there handsets not just their high range phones. Would be nice to see this happen. Sense is getting nicer and nicer but I run cm7 for the speed and vanilla look

And what is this obsession with weather updates all over Sense? Are they vampires who need to know the exact status of the sun before they can go outside?

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.

Don't get me wrong. When I had my hero I was in love with sense. Its shiney and pretty and has some nice features but I need the snappiness to go with it

I <3 Sense, it's just fluid and classy looking to me. But different strokes for different folks right? I run AOSP and find myself trying to make it mimic Sense, what's the point in me doing that?

I like sense 2

Theres just way too much going on. I tried Vanilla with CM7. Never looked back.

Synergy has the option to use the AOSP lockscreen instead (found in settings/display)...if that's what you prefer.

Except if you do that, you must swipe the bars and unlock your phone to answer a call. I delete most system files related to the ring and it gets rid of everything except for the ring. Works a bit better

I think the lock screen is the only cool thing about sense, I like running the sense 3 with launcher pro on top, but
the weather lock screen is awesome so
I keep it, and I like the short cuts.

Sdk is out!!!

If someone would get me the system.img and ramdisk and stuff, I'd like to work on it
edit: the sdk is compiled for ARMv7a too much work to be woth the effort of porting

is it possible to get ICS on G1?

Yeah... I was gonna port it yesterday during my math class. I've practiced porting random sdk versions so i could be ready for ics. I downloaded all the files I needed, then I saw armv7a in the name of the folder the system.img was in. I was worried so I examined it anyway. Built for a cpu that we don't have I went into that class excited, came out disappointed

Damn so its a no go or will there be a work around

May look sophisticated yet it lacks a nice theme. After a while of use I believe it would get boring and very fast at that.

well, free because we've moved on and its just sitting there collecting dust. Honestly though, I don't care to run ics on it either, the new features aren't of any use to the g1, so it really would just be for the theming which they could do.
rather than ICS I'd like to see other uses for these phones... I was using mine as a little boxee remote for a while... But I'd like to see more single use roms that are streamlined for some single purposes (like media pc remotes, c64 or ibm pc emulators (on bootup), carpc (probably too small for that), whatever...)

I was porting ICS to HD2, but there is something weird going on with surface flinger libs & binaries and dalvik-vm.. You can't de-odex the files with baksmali..

[Q] MIUI?

Why does almost everyone recommend MIUI? MIUI is nothing but a pain for me, it's always lagging and the color scheme is not very appealing.

That's a VERY vague question and miui is the most customizable rom there is to offer on this phone. As for sluggishness you're crazy what are you running apply and kernel wise?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

I agree with Nic. MIUI rocks on this device. It comes with a ton of awesome features, and customizability is second to none.

How much pain has it cost you really? what else did you install/ flash on your phone that you think it's making it lagging and as for color i really dont know what to tell you. when you post stuff like this, it's like a slap in the face to the developers. be careful how you critique what people have worked hard for..
All i can say is thank you Derek for your work..

Not to beat a dead horse, but I agree with everyone else. MIUI is every bit as fast and smooth as plain AOSP, and with a lot more attractive UI and is more customizable. If it wasn't for the lack of an app drawer, I'd probably have used it longer.

If the only thing you dont like about it is that is it missing the app drawer just install a new launcher like go launcher
Edit: Or install an app drawer from the market like "organized drawer" and it is just like miui has an app drawer

MIUI paired with the app ALTDrawer = pure awesome. it gives you an app drawer while still keeping the functionality of MIUI, doesnt change the screens or messes with the stock launcher either

Thanks, I hadn't seen that. In it's description it says "Move a shortcut of AltDrawer and replace the old app drawer of your launcher", but obviously MIUI has no app drawer icon to replace. Do you simply make one of your dock icons a shortcut to Altdrawer? If you could post some screenshots, that'd be great.

Miui is definitely fastest ROM out there. Not to mention highly customizable. Gonna have to agree with the crowd

ROM Developers

I honestly dont know to post this in general, or questions, but just an area were you ROM Developers can see this.
I was hoping that some of you could get together, and reconfigure sense in a way to resemble the upcoming HTC EVO 4G LTE.
http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/04/htc-evo-4g-lte-preview-video/
http://www.sprint.com/landings/evo4glte/index.html?INTCID=AB:UEC:HERO:040412:Jet:960x320
It looks quite nice. Somewhat looks like MIUI but with an app drawer and the famous sense clock. I'm not sure how changing the way a ROM works but it seems possible as I've seen so many various 100% custom look changes. Maybe someone just make a very cool stable ROM the resembles the 4G LTE's style. Maybe a sense theme or someone make that sense clock?
If anyone would like to take up this challenge, or multiple of you team up to make a nice rom that looks dead on like the LTE, please leave a reply or send me a PM. I have photoshop experience if any graphics are needed i could help out to an extent.

i would bet money people are working on this and will be coming eventually a great challenge for our wonderful devs

The battery. That removable battery is crucial if you're stuck on a splash screen or bootlooping. Where's the removable battery, HTC?

It will most likely have a reset pin or button combo that will dissconnect the power supply from the battery. Most tablets are that way.
**unrecognized**

Could do something along this line to hold yourself off until then :thumbup:
**unrecognized**

As sexy as that looks, I think I'll stay AOSP. Less bloat.

Check out SOS S by Team Swag. You can theme it to look quite a bit like Sense 4.0.

Guys, let's stay on topic lol. And Nah. That screen shot is very far from it the LTE. But love that clock

What are you guys using that real estate for? Other widgets? More apps? I do like the look of the clock, but honestly I use it because HTC put it there. Never really thought of losing it, lol. But now you got me thinking...

I'm more worried about the people that are worried about what other people are doing. Especially when it concerns something as trivial as an additional clock on a HS. Yikes.

i dont like the size of the sense clock but i like the look and feel of it to be honest if they could slim it down to 2x2 or 4x1 widget i would be pumped
