I like the sense UI for some reason, just wondering if theres anything new about it coming out soon. Or is it dead now?
Any sense rom will be the same except for maybe a theme being incorporated and apps being added or removed. The froyo sense rom has a couple of extra not found in 2.1, but IMHO cm6 runs much better than sense. I use to love sense roms but for the last 6 months have been on cm6. I do like the HTC keyboard and some other things, but my performance now is a lot better without sense.

Probably not. The developers feel that sense slows down the performance of the device, which it does. So mostly all devs avoid sense at all. Though there are roms with partial sense, like menus, but no there isn't a full blown sense rom. Sorry.

Do any of you guys know of a
"2.2" Rom that has some of the same "Themed" Sense Widgets?
Such as... Music, Bookmarks, and maybe even the Lockscreen? That's Basically the Only thing keeping me Away from all the Non-Sense Roms, if anyone has a Suggestion Post it Please!!

Does anyone have Sense UI properly working on Fascinate?
Lol. No there probably won't ever be a fully functional one. Sorry

I hear that if you want sense there is an option to purchase as droid incredible which will also give you froyo.
I really see no need for Sense UI anymore since Launcher Pro has sense widgets fully functional. Also, it is less of a resource hog like sense is.
Is it possible for there to be a HTC Sense Gingerbread ROM? I like Sense and I like Gingerbread. Thank you
well Kifno is making a "gingersense" when it will be done or stable? idk? but what you can do is get AOSPCMod and then download launcher pro and can put a sense like dock background, to make it more sense like. its what i do too, cause i agree with your statment haha
Or heLauncher. It has different layouts like sense and the one in the espresso roms.

yeah that too, i personally never tried that launcher though =]
but you can follow Kifnos thread to see the development of it or whatever.
itllbe very exciting if he finishes it. Cause all his other roms are just amazing
Awesome
Thanks a lot =D. I'm getting the hero and I want Gingerbread. So i'll download the launcher for now
yeah thats the best we Hero user got (as far as my knowledge) =\
warm regards and happy rooting

There is no complete and functional Sense ROM for the last 1/2 year.
The only fully functional ROM was a port of Desire by eViL D:, called NXSense.
There were several Sense ROMs since then, some better, some worse, none fully functional. You might not miss the lacking functionality, depends on your needs - so I suggest you go to Developers section, search there, read, try and find what suits you.
Hi everyone, I'm a HTC Incredible S user (stock) from Australia that has been increasingly frustrated with HTC support (lack of stock update to ICS due to carrier, Virgin Mobile), so I decided to take the matter to my own hand.
Question been: I have been browsing around the forum for various ROM to flash (read the important notices and all such), but one question come to mind... since I am using Go Launcher (free version, got sick with stock HTC sense) what are the con for said launcher? Is it recommended to replace stock/ROM launchers with it?
Thanks everyone for helping out.
It's up to you, I don't like Sense <=3.6 either.
I think the more popular launchers here on XDA are Nova and Apex.
The cons are that the Sense launcher will continue to use up memory as a system service but that can now be stopped using this.
Launchers are mostly for customization. Go launcher is among the best available to replace stock launcher. If you're going to root your device then you'll have the liberty to choose whether you want a sense based rom or just plain vanilla rom (rom without sense framework and interface).
As of my experience, I'm liking apex launcher for its simplicity and ease of use, but if you are willing to spend some bucks, i would recommend tsf launcher, nice eye candy yet still not a burden to system resources.

+1 for Apex - I like how you can change the name and icon for the app in the home screen among other customisations all for free.
Some apps in Google Play are great but their icons are sh1te
Thanks for suggestions guys! Much appreciated!
Just one more question to ask: which ROM is the best recommended to go for right now? I was thinking Nik's JB ROMs, but half afread the phone might not be able to run it smoothly (store mobile Incredible S with stock ICS update lag like hell...)
Thanks very much.
EDIT: opps forgot to mention, without HTC sense...
Smoothest experience and best battery/performance close to stock:
ARHD or The Second Sun rom
Nonverbose's kernel
ultrasmooth rosie
v6 supercharger
Andrev daemon
Project butter hacks
I agree with markj on his suggested rom and tweaks. If you're looking for non sense rom, give nik's jb rom a try.
EDIT : you tried that, my bad the rom still new, nik will further polish it in the future for sure
Personally, for plain-non sense-ics rom, i prefer icecoldsandwich together with those tweaks (minus kernel) mentioned.

I had the same experience as you when I updated with the OTA stock ICS update... almost hurled my phone at the wall with the lags and rubbish battery life.
IceColdSandwich worked well for me but I'm now using CodeName JB (I like to roll with the cool kids) and both have been very smooth, the latter much more so IMO.
A thing to note if you are snap happy - the camera quality in AOKP/AOSP ROMs will not be as good as Sense ones. Just something I noticed as well as others in XDA.
As a long time lover of Aosp (since froyo on my old cappy) I really miss it, the problem is I've fallen in love with sense 5. That's all I really care about in sense roms though. So I was wandering if it's possible to port the sense launcher to a gpe rom. Is it possible?
Sent from my HTC One
i think that would require loads of work but im not 100 % on that
Yeah its probably possible with tons of work, but I doubt anyone would take a lot of interest in porting it since honestly it's nothing special of a launcher and it's rather stale in features. Anyways, why do you want the sense 5 launcher over something like nova launcher or action launcher pro?

Blinkfeed. It's perfect for when you're sitting around with nothing to do. I've become quite attached to it.

I guess that's understandable. I settled for Feely though since it's amazingly designed and I can customize it by websites I want easily. Still waiting for new widgets from them though.
