If you are talking about the team I think you are, they said they are waiting for official froyo to do it..

Once official froyo source drops. Things will go more smoothly.. its amazing that our devs here have made the progress they have given the lack of necessity available.

I was just about to make a thread asking about the development of this Galaxy Sense we heard about last month.

With launcher pro a custom dock and beautiful widgets you can make your homescreens look just like the sense ui if you want it for the ascetics or as a placeholder til it gets ported

Hero/evo/epic I ran cm6 on both htc devices. I rather have a pure aosp. I don't like none of the manufacturers gui's.

The Hero was the first android phone I ever owned, I loved sense on it because there were so many ways to customize it to my liking, tw just sucks, I want to go back to the evo so I can go back to the sense + froyo + CM6, but the epic's keyboard and excellent performance are keeping me here

Yeah I know alot of people like it pure google.
but to me it just isnt appealing or as functional.
the hero was my first android device so I did get spoiled
with htc sense. Just to my likings that it brought a better
experience and refresh to the Android interface. Widgets and apps.
I prefer it over TW. There are just a few things I prefer TW
over sense per say.

I think the rom was released and then discontinued for the galaxy s i9000 due to the devs having muliple issues that they were not able to resolve. Link to post --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877902

The only thing I ever liked about Sense UI were the widgets and the Weather effects.
With LauncherPro, you can get pretty much identical widgets, and then Beautiful Widgets will give you the same look of the clock widget. Plus, LauncherPro is infinitely customizable and you can do pretty much anything with it....
Sense UI has always been extremely laggy and slow in all the times I've used it, as a ROM port on my Nexus, and also stock on the Evo/Hero.
Wouldn't mind trying it out again on my Epic though!

The older version of fancy widget is also a wonderful alternative to the sense clock/weather widget.

Poll Sense or no Sense?

just curious what people are using or like

Using cm7 and the only thing I miss from sense is the Calender app and all the Widgets. Oh and also the browser. But I would say no sense
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk

For calendar, agenda widget is a better replacement to me. For friend stream and the sms widget, I find pure messenger widget is great replacement.
As you can tell, I much prefer the smoothness and customization of CM myself. But sense is pretty candy I'll admit.
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App

I'm currently on cm7 and now that almost everything works, I'm liking this better than sense. Also, much easier to theme lol.
Sent from my PG06100

Sense has its ups but all in all I gotta have my aosp. I started with it on the moment and didn't even think twice about putting cm6 and aosp roms on my heroc. So for my shift it was kind of a no brainer. Although the shift did make me start to like sense more then I already did.
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk

Sense is definitely the most polished and developed of the "skin" frameworks, imo. There is a lot to like about it as mentioned above, but I prefer going without it.

Never liked sense til mikshift...I prefer an aosp build but hate cyanogen..since the g1..so til I have enough time to get a mikaosp I'm pro sense lol
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App

I like either one. To be honest
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk

No Sense.
I don't *dislike* Sense. There are a lot of great things about it like the widgets everyone loves and tries to imitate. It just takes up a lot of space and uses a lot of resources to run. Though I have to admit I've never seen it run as amazingly fast and smooth as it does on the Shift.
That said, CM7 is light, fast and awesome. I mostly missed the Sense calendar widget too, but the one in Launcher Pro Plus is pretty slick and fills that gap nicely.

If I had to choose I would defently go with sense best skin out there by far. I think I would also choose it over aosp
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA Premium App

Sense looks ok, but I don't like the inflexibility of it. If I don't want it, I want to be able to delete it, and Sense doesn't like being deleted in my experience. AOSP for me.

You can't beat the social integration Sense has, but with a little bit of work pretty much any aosp rom can be ALMOST equal.
CM7 is great. The theme engine is great as well.
My rom of choice for the last couple weeks has been MIUI, sure there's no wimax or mms but mms is coming I'm sure. When I'm in wimax coverage areas for now I just nandroid.

Just curious as to why you hate cyanogen?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA Premium App

I was glad to not have Sense on my phone anymore when I flashed CM7. I think stock Android 2.3 just looks cleaner and more professional than Sense, and HTC has made some odd choices with the updated Sense UI (is a themes button on the bottom widget really necessary?) that I don't like.
CM7 all the way for me.

Agreed. I was never a huge fan of the AOSP look before, but with the change in 2.3 to the more unified black theme, black status bar, etc. it looks really slick and professional. Sense looks nice in some aspects, but I guess I just don't like the "everything is shiny!" thing going on there.

Its overrated and gets way to much hype..too much is changed to make it "better" but imo its just aosp with bloatware
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App

Do you guys know of any true to the core aosp rom in the works?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA Premium App

I prefer sense, it just looks the most "refined" to me. And with the Shift, it really flies.
But, I'm running CM7 at the moment, and getting used to it. I still miss some of the sense goodies tho

Haven't been on Sense since I rooted my Hero. When I rooted this, got off sense right away too. Not a big fan of sense, it's just too much.

Sence, just cleaned up a bit.

[Q] Nice UI from Japan

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0S6NMH4ry-4
This is a nice UI from a gingerbread device Infobar A01 from Japan ,
Mixed WP7 and Android feel. Is there any similar launcher?

Saw this on the Android GAF thread. Looks super awesome. Nice to see a OEM/Manafactuer make a totally different UI as opposed to Sense/TouchWiz etc which barely changes the style of Android

love it!!
ok im moving to japan now! bye

Someone absolutely needs to make a launcher out of this. please.

Very nice

I've been keeping a close eye on Fipplr, and recently pinged the CEO/Founder of the company behind it since I hadn't heard from her in a while. She told me that because of legal concerns, they decided to modify the look and feel. I'm still super excited for it though, and she's promised to keep me updated and let me know when they have any renders/details of the new style.

The UI in the video has a WM 6.1 system bar on top. I wouldn't get your hopes up for this on Android just yet.

Wouldn't use it, really don't like it.
Knowing me I'd want all my tools/games on the main screen and there would be too much scrolling. I don't see how that's any better then what's currently out there.

That's prettyy much like a totally black Android toolbar with white icons... and any way, the phone advertised IS an Android phone with a June(??) release date (hopefully).

Thats ugly, the screen is too crowded, everything is too fat and bulky, theres no room for a wallpaper, vertical scrolling is boring, and the category title bars are too thick

What do you LOVE about CM7??

I love how FAST it is. I love the overscroll color choices and built in theme chooser. I love the included ring tones. I love the battery life. I love everything about cm7.

I love the screenshot feature. And the 2.3.5 android version. And the tiny rom size
O, and the contacts work at lower lcd densities. Take THAT touchwiz

I really like the option to edit the toggles in the notification pulldown.

I love the 180 degree rotation

I love the theme chooser, and the fact that you can run a version on most phones and tablets.

Because Cyanogenmod.

I love it's speed and stability, less force closing, and AOSP goodness. I also like the voicemail customization and using with googlevoice, not like sprint's stupid voicemail menu in settings where you have to pay for transcribed voicemails. CM7 how do I love you, let me count the ways... I've actually not tried cm7 the last experience I had with cyanogen was cm6 on my hero, but wow what a difference that made.

All of the above.

I love its speed, options, and a lot more. But I don't like the lack of 4G, so I don't use it as a daily driver.

I love the fact that half of the major features of the phone don't work.

[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?

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

lagging, check to see if you have random tasks bogging you down, as for color, customize your theme to make it more appealing

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
