[Q] ICS Sense port? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that the Sensation now has a leaked alpha HTC ICS ROM with Sense. I know that other ROMs have in the past been ported between HTC devices. Is there any chance the Sensation ROM could get ported over?

Marseillesw was trying last I heard. If he is making progress, its going to be tough. There are no ICS Sense kernels for our device, and according to TDJ, "Good luck. Sense kernels are a b****."

let's hope once there's a new HTC device with sense and ICS, then that can be the source
better yet... does sense 4.0 with ICS sound good?

I was wondering the same thing. HTC pretties up stock "Vanilla" Andriod, but ICS looks pretty good as is. They'd have to bust out some serious magic to make me want it.

Yes but what I'm saying is there's already an HTC device with official Sense and ICS - it's not a final build but it's direct from HTC. So there is a source available.

HTC has been working hard to get its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re excited to announce that our first round of ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of March for the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation 4G and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon there after by the HTC Sensation XL.
In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this year to the HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks.

Given that they'll eventually bring the Desire S and Desire HD to ICS... at that point you'd probably be able to make a fully functional ICS port. I may be wrong but doesn't one of those phones even have the exact same camera hardware as Glacier? That'd provide us with a driver.
Mind you I have already moved on to GNex land

Seems cool. But looks like all of the good MT4G devs are gone now since I had the phone couple months ago.

Yeah, my port was a pain in the ass since at the moment we don't have a working 3.0 kernel. However once the official is out for dhd, porting the rom and kernel libs will be much easier. One the bright side, keep ur eyes open in the dev thread the next few days...can't say much more lol

I know people like Cyanogen and the developers here work wonders. but i servery doubt it. 3.0 was meant to a Tablet OS, not a phone OS. 2.4 from what i've been reading will be the phone version of 3.0.
Well I hope atleast some parts of 3.0 come over

I'm not saying it's "not" going to happen. I'm sure there will some stuff that migrates over. But i don't think the entire OS will come over. I could be wrong. I've been wrong before.
There will be one may it be 3.0 or 2.4, its going to be good regardless you can bet on it. Its just a matter of when. The mytouch 4g might get it last tho ) :
Might be honeycomb for phones after all at&t phone will have honeycomb http://tinyurl.com/4hv5rt7

so far every site but the one you posted has it listed as a fake
What I read is there will be a 2.4 for phones that will combine Gingerbread and Honeycomb.. Honeycomb is for tablets although I'm sure we will see a custom rom/port for a phone..

[Q] Noob Question: Will an Official 4.0 ICS ever be available for the Mytouch 4G?

Will an Official 4.0 ICS ever be available for the Mytouch 4G in the future?
Many Users on the Internet are promoting to a official Ice Cream Sandwich release. What are your thoughts?
Thanks!
No, it won't.

The device Is very capable of handling ics just like nexus s.. I think its all revenue. Be it so your better off rooting and flashing ported ics Rom.and I think Febycv is doing a wonderful job.y Yes a lot of people are excited about ics. Its the latest android development release. So if you like android phones then you should be excited about its latest release.

Agree that its capable of running it. Can you imagine what ICS mysense will look like though?
Its a pity, the myTouch 4G seems to be even more capable than the Nexus S because of the 50% more memory... I myself am looking to switch from a Galaxy S series phone to the myTouch 4G because of the crazy amount of swapping going on because of the small amount of RAM...
The myTouch 4G is basically an HTC Sensation without the 2nd core, but with dual core mattering so little at the moment, it really does suck that the myTouch won't get an official update...

Yea, HTC will take FOREVER if they do make an ICS update for this phone...
plus it'll be mysense too, so you're better off flashing a port. mysense is so bad IMO. I think sense is bad period.
Highly doubt it

Its a shame that HTC isn't going to update it to ICS. I do like the direction the manufacturers are going. Less phones per should also help with future updates.

New to the g2

I unwillingly had to give up my nexus s 4g for my current g2. Thought it would be crap compared to the ns4g. So far my performance at 1.5ghz has been better and I'm actually pretty content. Now to the good stuff..
What's up with ice cream sammich on this thing? I literally feel like I started reading a book halfway through and don't know where to go. Someone fill me in please as I got used to ics and miss it terribly lol

Did your phone come stock with Gingerbread? If so go Here to get back to Froyo, then Here I'm assuming the Gingerbread thread would have you put on CWM of course.
If your phone did not come with the Gingerbread update go Here then back to the 2nd link above.
Thanks dude! Yea I'm fully rooted running cm7 nightly but I'm flashing this right naoh!!

There's no official ICS for the G2/DZ, so right now there are some pre-alpha/alpha quality builds available in the dev forum. We may well never get an official ICS, but our sister phones, the Desire HD and Desire S will be, and there is enough commonality in chipsets to be pretty sure we'll get decent drivers out of those (to vastly improve the current early builds).

I'd like to know what they mean by HTC EVO 4G"+". At first I thought the LTE version but that ships with ICS so doesn't make sense. Anyone care / able to explain?
possibly the europe version not sure.. that's what i thought too..
Evo Design 4G
It's coming to the Evo Design 4G (which has the same radio and camera) next month or the month after, so that's promising for us getting 4G and a good camera on ICS.
The Evo 4G+ is the chinese branding of the Evo 3D. But, if someone got Sense 4 working on the HD2, I think we can get it working on the Shift.
Just because the Shift officially isn't getting ICS, doesn't mean it won't get ported over.
I'm happy with NewSense.

Since day 1.
still on newsense, HTC needs to get a pen and paper and take notes from xda at this point.
I wish newSense could get some of the mikrunny(sp?) 3.5 sense. I like being able to reduce the number of screens.
But, newSense is my current go to rom for prl's etc.

[Official]Android 4.0.4 with sense 3.6 for Desire S leaked!! Waiting for port!!

Looks like this leak is not useful for us. Kernel is Desire S specific and it doesn't boot. Also the base isn't worth porting, so it seems we have to wait for a leak or official firmware.Read down from this post
Great! now camera problem can be solved.
Well i have been on ICS for sometime now on my DHD and love it. People have been trying to get Sense to work but never get the Camera to function... I wish someone could get Sense 4 to work, i don't think i will flash a 3.6 Sense if there is still the pip dream of a 4 out there in the works. But hopefully with this they can fix the flaws in the broken Sense 4 Roms that we all are waiting for!

I think Sense 3.6 can be even better than 4. Don't know exactly, but it seems we can get nothing better than Sense 4 lite which doesn't have all the features of Sense 4. So I'd better use either AOSP or Sense 3.6

Untill dhd source code of kernel won't be released it's useless to wait fully working rom. If So it will be not-fully-working ported rom 'cause it will be based on 2.xx kernel not 3.xx

I'd just like to see a Sense 3.6 with some of the nicer features ported from Sense 4.0 like the lockscreens, general themes, etc..
Hi all, for me I rather have a vanilla ice since sense doesn't make sense to me. It such a bloat ware for me. I've been using pics for two weeks and it's feel great!
The only issue was when you installed Facebook its getting a lot slower! It's issue with Facebook not ics I supposed. Can't wait for a fully functional camera
