Sensation 3D Transitions

Hi All,
I was just wondering if anybody knows of a theme for the IS that included the cool 3D transitions from the Sensation?
I am currently running
S-OFF
Android Revolution HD 1.0.2
HTC Sense 2.1 (3.0 Lock Screen, Weather, etc etc)
Basically all I need now are the groovy transitions. But I don't want to lose Sense 3.0
Was just wondering if it's possible?
Thanks
Dean

A little more;
Ignore the above,
I've seen a video somewhere on this forum (most likely in the DHD or IS dev)
It's was like a 3d homescreen wheel. When swiping side to side the screens moved in a wheel like action as apposed to sliding horizontally. I believe it was a continous flow of homescreens.
Anway I've searched and searched and scowered the forum and I can't find it again.
Does anybody recall this?
(Was likely to have been in an Android Revolution thread) I can't find it anywhere.
Please note, I have watched the n00b video

I dont think its possible to get 3d Transitions like HTC Sensation on IS with And Rev ROM - If u want the 3d Slocrilling effect (n many others) use Launcher Pro from the Maket once installed . On the Home Screen > Go Menu>Prefrences>Home/General Settings>Transiiton Effects

http://geeknizer.com/android-3d-launcher/
Here you go you were looking for number 2

the sense 3.0 ports of incredible s must have that..
or else you can download the 3d rosie pack for sense 2.1 rom from dhd section seo thread..
and all the sense 3.0 stuff..
it would work on most phones with sense 2.1

Thanks all
I found the rosie pack and gave it a whirl . After it booted up I cleared the data from HTC sense to get my widgets back but I still do not have the Bookmarks or People widgets . I have tried rebooting, clearing data again, clearing that cache from recovery (don't recall the name) . Yet these two widgets are both missing .
I presume I can install them or push them ?

those rosie pack are for DHD, they need to be re-written to be able to properly used with the IS. Pushing doesn't work, already tried.

It's working fine. I flashed it through recovery . Can't see any real bugs apart from the two missing widgets. I'm going to get rid of it tomorrow all the same .
Thanks

Nice Digger, but answer to Your question is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1028
Nowadays we have phones loaded with HTC Sense 3.5 ROM's. If you don't want to use custom ROM then wait 6 days when HTC will officially release Sense 3.0.

Im using Android Revolution HD™ 1.1.9 custom ROM have all the sense 3.0 but not the 3D Transitions :-(

I agree with nsg86. can't go wrong with vu2.39.

Thanks nsg86 for the info going to flash to Virtuous Unity Rom. but before i do that im sure I need to wipe my device and i have about 20+ games installed how can I backup all the save data and any other data that I have.. please advice

why are you flashing vu ? its sense 3.0. Go directly to 3.5, try Rcmix 4 or Nik's Trinity ROM.Sense 3.5 is a lot smoother than 3.0.
You can use titanium backup to create a backup of your apps and their data.Just avoid backing up system apps, only backup user apps.
You can backup contacts using the builtin backup option in peoples and you can backup sms using the builtin option in messages.

My Quadrant result now using ARHD is 2310 and performance is superb. Would like to know on other ROM that is stable and have a superb performance So far came across Nik's Trinity ROM.Sense 3.5 and also vu2.39

I'm using Virtuous Affinity 1.48 and its fantastic; smooth, quick, stable, and so far, the battery is great.
I have it clocked at a maximum 1.15ghz with the virtuous daemon, and my quadrant score is about 1900, better than the stock 1200.
@h3llrai53r, what is your clock speed to achieve such a high score? Or is ARHD just that little bit quicker?

[MOD] Custom Sense 3.0 / Hybrid Lock Screen Rings

I just love customizing my phone...so made up a few lock rings for myself on Sense 3.0.
Just some personal preferences here, feel free to use em if you like.
These have been tested on a few different ROMs...Synergy RC1 / Alliance 7.7/ Kings Kingdom 1.7 to name a few.
Should work on the hybrids as well as 3.0.
Must be using HTC skin by default to change ring style...won't work on the others!!
Just flash in recovery (I'm using Amon-Ra v2.3) and enjoy...especially you Boston fans!
**It goes without saying...but I'll say it anyways:
You alone are responsible for any risks involved in flashing things to your device.**
I'll toss up more that I come up with as I do em...if there are any requests, I'll do my best if you supply the image.
(No guarantees...just doin these mainly for fun)
Great tutorial from jmaher1023 HERE ...learn how to do some yourself!! Thanks jmaher1023!!!
I've done alot of these with transparencies by design...I use backgrounds that enhance the images.
Backgrounds shown in pics are just chosen to best display the images for you.

sense 3.0 on IS looks different than on Senstaion

Hi guys,
I have updated to stock sense 3.0 on IS OTA yesterday, but immediately I found that the look/feeling on our IS is quite different from which on Sensation (in the bad way).
I know 3.0 was originally targeting QHD display not WVGA, and the screen ratio of Sensation is different from which of IS. But, as an official UI product, IMO, you either do it well, or don't do it at all.
1) the notification UI, I could easily notice that there are three sections: top bar displaying network operator's name; middle layer showing 8 recent apps; bottom the biggest notification area. The problem is that these 3 sections look soooo separated (split by a thin white/grey line), you can see the top bar has gradient colour variation from grey to black, the middle layer has black background with grey dots, while the notification area is just white. They are just so not consistent and the white/grey line in between them makes the feeling even stronger!!
I don't think I have the same feeling in sense 2.1 or in 3.0 on Sensation.
2) if you open the app drawer or personalize panel, apart from the inconsistent feeling described above, you will find there are a thin white/grey line on each left and right side. what the reason did they put these two lines here? it feels like (take app drawer as example) the black area displaying the 16 apps was poorly PhotoShopped on top of something and HTC were rushed pushing out the OTA without having a proper designer to make the 3.0 on WVGA look as close as possible to which on Sensation...
Again, on Sensation or stock sense 3.5 on Rhyme, you only feel comfortable looking at those UIs.
3) when you pull down the notification panel, on the bottom of UI, the black bar with 8 dots on left and right side and one single dot in the middle. if you look at the left side of this bar, you will see a thin white/grey line while on the right you won't! If HTC deliberately designed those white/grey lines on other UIs to compromise the screen ratio difference between IS and Sensation, why didn't they keep both side the same?
OK, above are just three main problems I found, of course, the font size is not ideal but, well, we had over sized font on 2.1 in the beginning...
Oh, by the way, can someone confirm on your official OTA 3.0, you have similar thing as I described above? Just in case my update was somehow, broken... (Silly question cos broken=unsuccessful update. but this time I am really disappointed in the 3.0 on IS)
Hope we will have a next update from HTC soon to make the UI look better otherwise I may consider root and go customizing...
H_H

yes, i have the official unrooted update. Everything you described is correct.
You can see that sense is a layer over android instead of build in. It becomes even more clear if you change the skin to blue, it becomes really inconsistent when you see the blue or when you see stock android colors.
What bothers me most is that the background doesn't move anymore when sliding through homescreens.

I thought I was the only one who hated this poor Sense 3.0 update. I'm running ARHD 2.1.0 apart the last issue you described everything is the same here. Sense is badly scaled I'm really upset by that.
Thanks god I'm still soff so flashing Sense 3.5 Roms is all I want for now.

HTC upgraded your 9 months old phone to their newest ui for free, and you complain about tiny graphical changes?
To me the important stuff is the lock screen and the 3d carousel, and the fact that 3.0 runs smoothly. I am happy with it to be honest.

It does run smooth but not stable. Updated yesterday and had +5 forced closed, the last one 2 mins ago.
dialer forced closed 2 times (can reproduce the error)
contacts forced closed 3 times (can reproduce the error)
Messages failed to link the phone numbers to the contacts 2 times stating only numbers at sms instead of contact name (only reboot solves this).
The favorites widget reloads at random, offcourse only when you want to use it, than you have to wait a bit.

I think its right to complain because virtuous unity properly scaled and resized the qHD sensation ROM for several WVGA devices including the IS a long time back.

I have no problems with the ui, sense is nice and smooth.
The only thing that bothers me is the presence of the good old damn dialer issue sucking the battery.
Why?

That sucks, I don't have any of those problems myself though.
I experienced HTCs upgrade path for the original Desire and think they have done a much better job on the Incredible S.

I agree.. Not very well scaled graphics.. And too big font.
For my taste the 2.1 with "ardesia" skin has been one of the best interface ever.
In addition I hate to put that tiny green phone into the circle to reply a call.
Just asked to customer service how to come back to the 2.3.3 waiting the next (I hope) upgrade.
Unfortunately no "official" solution for that.

Why dont you go for ARHD? It's exactly same as sensation. xD

I know of 2 people (myself included) who have attempted to produce a rooted version of the official 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 RUU/ROM but have not been successful when flashed to phones using the older HBOOT versions. The ROM will install, but will not boot past the HTC screen and you have to pull the battery.
It appears that the ROM may now be checking the HBOOT version and may not run on older HBOOT versions.

Feeling lazy tell me which ROM my g/f should use

So after realizing I don't have a boat load of time to read through all the sense based roms on the dev page I was hoping I could get some insight. I use aosp ROMs and "senseless" Roms only so I have been out of the Sense based ROM game for some time now. Can anyone reccomend a good Sense based ROM for my g/f to use as her every day build. She currently has Nik's ROM and doesn't like it due to the fact that it randomly resets itself, I'd fix the problem but I'd rather just d/l something new so she can have that shiny new feeling. If anyone could give me some reccomendations I'd greatly appreciate it (and of course a thanks for anyone willing to help ; ) ).
No ICS and no AOSP / "senseless"
Thanks!

If u want sensed rom, stability n working front camera then try ARHD. If u want sense 3,5 then try nik trinity...but its front camera shows a glitch...

Affinity, perfect rom from Virtuous team.

I would use ARHD forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088498

ARHD would be a good choice

Hahaha.. i totally understand & i warn you, you better get her something that is flawless or it's all going be your fault
My suggestion, 2 of the totally bug free & awesome ROMs out there
- Virtuous Affinity
- DutchDanny's Bindroid
i have used both of the above the longest among all the others & fell in love with both of them.
Affinity has the stock sense look with tweaks & Bindroid has a little extra color which makes for some good eye candy
and of course, there are NO problems with ANY function on either of the above, so your call

Virtuous Affinity if you ask me. It is just as stable as ARHD, but few more bells & whistles. I particulary liked "smooth rosie" tweak...

wanna impress ur girl? then just use nik's rom loads of tweaks and sense features with TRON themed!!

Welcome to thanks town except for you santhospirate as you appeared to not have read my post.

i would say virtuous or arhd. Or you can try niks 2.0, its way more stable than 2.5 (i don't know which one u are using now.

RCMix.Energized is a good choice, Blue style..

Think I figured out my issue with sense 3.6

It's themeing! Honestly I like the holo look of ics. I also like the textured look of sense. And it seems while sense 4 is just as intrusive as previous versions, they redid the graphics and tweaked in ics features to blend quite well with the holo elements in tact. However this isn't the case with 3.6. 3.6 really is just a tweaked 3.5 designed to work with ics. Problem is there are 2 themes present here. A lot of menus your seeing holo elements and but you still have textured borders of old sense everywhere in the ui. The result is a ui with a loss of identity. You can install custom skins that help but they still leave a lot of textured sense borders that can't be removed as the skins only go so deep.
I will say overall I like sense and buying an HTC phone I didn't expect AOSP. I think if they couldn't give us 4 than 3.6 should of at least been designed better to blend in with holo elements. And one thing I don't get about HTC is they always remove the overscroll effect. I'm going to root my phone soon and first order or business will be fixing the themeing. I dunno if ill put a custom Rom on yet just want more theming control to start. Imo I don't want a pure senseless Rom as I do like sense

Are you going to make a theme?

I dunno, it's one thing to root and tweak with the graphics, it's another to make a cwm theme. I'm not a developer... Yet

Nice wording man, I like the "yet" part... It's definitely an interesting community! Ever since I joined, I've installed Ubuntu on my Core i7 Dell laptop along with Android 4.0.1 on VirtualBox, I really hope to get involved in the dev community myself in the future.

Yeah I've been pressed for time but I've been wanting to learn how to develop for my HTC Flyer tablet and my Vivid. With the Flyer its creating a better stock launcher that interest me as with it being on honeycomb and support being cut off from htc, there aren't a whole lot of choices. For this phone its cleaning up the stock rom and allowing ics and Sense 3.6 to coexist in perfect harmony. No promises on anything yet

I don't consider my self a dev either...yet
But I do have some experience with the development on the Samsung infuse (which you can tell by my Sig)
I've been trying to mess with the stock rom for a while now with no luck...I just can't seem to get any apktool to work with stock ics of this device, and after a little research it seems sense 3.6 is the problem, but I have yet to find a solution
I've asked a few times for help on decompiling for the vivid but have gotten no response...I'm not trying to discourage you all i wanna get across is that if you have any success...please share the knowledge with me

Yeah htc makes someone nice devices but they aren't developer devices for sure. I'll let you know once I get involved in it what I can do might be why most flash the sense removed roms as its all or none.
Yeah overall I like sense 3.6 just hate the theme clashing. Good example is hitting the search button. All of a sudden your not using sense 3.6 anymore, your now using aosp android! I think I remember reading Google required a certain percentage of holo elements for market access, and I think htc kept that in mind in redesigning sense from the ground up with the one series. But when it came time to upgrade what they had they just basically ported 3.5 over and added a few ics features into the launcher. HTC claims that 4.0 is too different from 3.5 and earlier and previous users need familiarity but Imo if you've played with a one x its all pretty familiar. 3.6 overall was a bad call

My one major gripe with Sense is the lack of changing things. I'd like to be able to (without using LauncherPro) tell it "I want 5 columns, and 6 rows of icons, on top of the 5 at the bottom. (so a total of 7 rows of icons, 5 columns)"
It WORKS well, just see some photo's I've posted in recent days.

I hear ya, but thats all stock launchers including the google one. Sense 3.6 has some of the best customization for stock I've seen, but it still pales in comparison to say ADW EX, Go Launcher, or Apex.

alright...for the longest time ive been trying to use apktool with the "att stock ics for chefs or whatever" never had luck...today i decided to try apktool with an old download of 0.9 holics rom, to my surprise apktool works with it-i was able to install framework, decompile, recompile...it all worked!
so im wondering if maybe the stock ics wasnt properly deodexed, or maybe with holics rom something special was done? when i get the time im gonna try contacting bananacakes and see if maybe he can help me set up a stock base, or possibly use a stock base he may have laying around...ive tried making my own stock rom in the past from the RUU but got the same errors as the att stock rom for chefs...
