the only visual difference i see is that htc has finally decided to ditch that horrendous dock in favor of a more practical customizable 4 app dock, very similar to the mt4g slide "mysense" dock
i guess the face unlock is kinda neat, wld never use it tho so its whateves, but itll b awhile before this comes to the amaze cuz nothing ports to the amaze easily, esp the sensation stuff

[Q] Will 3D functionality ever come to ASOP/CM7?

This might be a stupid question, but does the community ever expect to get 3D functionality in an AOSP build? I am assuming the technology is pretty complicated and is completely part of Sense, so how will this ever work? This worries me slightly...
Also, anyone tried the mirroring on HDMI in toast's CM7 build? These are two deal breakers for me, but at the same time so is HTC's horrible Bluetooth stack

Regarding the bad Bluetooth quality I contacted HTC and they reported it as bug to their devs. I've got a opened ticket for it on their support site. They will contact me, when its fixed.

I would say its completely possible to get 3D in AOSP. A couple factors though.
1.) The evo3D is not as popular as the Evo4G was/is. That may hold up development.
2.) Remember, 4G was only in Sense as well. That had tto be built into AOSP from the ground up.
3.) There are 2 3D phones out right now. So that might help development. Especially since the Thrill doesn't run Sense at all. Its running... Well, whatever the thrill runs on top of Android.
So, I think it'll happen eventually. Just be patient.
Might be totally unrelated, but the heroc's camera was always better on a sense rom than in cm7----are the camera drivers tied entirely to sense?
Sent by Logo the turtle
Pretty sure most of the drivers on E3D are tied into Sense... i think it's time to look into BootManager, dual booting ROMs to get the best of both worlds... for now at least.
Toast already has vidoes with the 3d flag playing on CM7, the driver and source for 3d are released already. I think it will happen, we didn't buy this device for 3d but we found it to be kind of cool. This will be what brings it to CM, that and the best development teams have this device!

Well, as far as taking 3D pictures and video, I'm sure it will come along. Toast is a beast, he'll get it done. Right now, you can still watch 3D videos that you've taken or converted into 3D. Rockplayer reads the 3D videos, as do a few other players.
On a related note, has anyone found a Gallery type program that reads .mpo files as 3D? I love CM, and being able to still watch my 3D videos is a hell of a bonus, but I'd like to still be able to view my 3D pictures too.
Was wondering about that too..

A Look at What HTC Will do With Sense for the ICS Update

We've all been wondering what will happen to Sense once we get the ICS update.
The honeycomb upgrade that the HTC Flyer got very recently gives us a clue:
http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2130153/htc-flyer-android-honeycomb-upgrade
Here's a video of the flyer with gingerbread:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70y78sBtDbA
In gingerbread, the whole UI is tweaked and looks only slightly different from the one on phones.
The video of the Flyer with Honeycomb update:
http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/review/2131567/htc-flyer-running-android-honeycomb-video-review
Notice how the UI is far less modified than the Sense in Gingerbread. The lockscreen is the same, but the rest of the UI nearly stock, except for the widgets, icons, and system apps.
From this I infer that once we get the ICS update, HTC Sense won't be as extensive as it is in Gingerbread, and we will actually have less of the Sense UI and more vanilla Android.
When it comes to their phones it will be sensed out..We can hope they don't mess it all up but they will..HTC isn't very established in the tablet market so they can experiment with what they think people want.Phones have been established so they will continue doing what they have always done...
This is just my opinion though..I wish they would just leave it alone and maybe add a few things

It is not like HTC is lacking in sales due to to Sense. People continue to buy their phones so why would they think people do not want it.
I am sure for non-tech people who buy an HTC phone, Sense makes things a lot easier for them and they do not even know what Sense means.
Ask an HTC phone owner who is not into modding their phone what they think of Sense. I am willing to bet they have no clue what you are even talking about.
So they straight up disabled the buttons on the tablet with the honeycomb update. Damn i hope they dont do that for our ICS update. talk about losing screen real estate by adding a row on the screen for the buttons!
so besides the sense widget clock, and the sense lockscreen, what was "Sense" on that tablet?? to me looked like straight Honeycomb for most part.

I do hope the HTC sticks to the vanilla ICS interface for the EVO 3D, maybe adding a few widgets and all. I prefer that much more than Sense and I don't really mind them disabling the capacitive buttons.

Sense looks good on the outside, but ugly on the inside. .
Kinda like a stripper
I like the some of the things it can do vs AoSP or TW.. . But the Rosie is useless and ugly. Its a ram hog and leaves/has footprints in almost every part of the OS
I think its a bit of overkill IMO

na im a fan bud but personally they included a lot of sense features in ICS. The only thing ICS doesn't have is the Sense widgets and such really.
I don't mind sense either but they load it down with way to Much memory eating garbage. No reason for a stock Evo3D with the hardware inside to run the way it does..Load up a senseless ROM and ADW and this thing screams

It makes sense for them to do this on a tablet. Honeycomb is designed to be used from any screen orientation, whereas the buttons are only good for one. Secondly, on honeycomb the status bar is also the button bar, no screen real estate is lost by having the buttons on something that is there anyway. Leaving the capacitive buttons enabled enables false presses without much benefit.
For a phone, the primary orientation is landscape and the buttons aren't on the status bar. Thus there is no reason to even use on screen buttons on a device that has capacitive buttons already. The galaxy nexus has to have a 16:9 screen which allows the buttons to be there without cutting down real estate compared to other phones.
I could not be any more certain that the capacitive buttons will not be disabled in ICS. Also, the thing that bugs me the most about Sense besides the fact that it hogs ram and decreases the performance of the device is how deep its roots are in the OS, such as the fact that the drivers for autostereoscopy rely on the Sense framework, so AOSP roms don't have 3D and may not until 3D support becomes stock for Android, at which point the Evo 3D will probably be a legacy device or obsolete.

Woah, slow the hell down people. HTC isn't that stupid! (surprising right?). There NOT going to disable out capacitive buttons!!! ICS, unlike Honeycomb, can be used with our without capacitive buttons. They wont disable the buttons and put them onscreen if they don't have to, that's retarted.
But anyway, I like the idea of a less intrusive sense. I bet it won't happen however. They never really put much effort into sense for tablets, but on phones its their trademark. Sense widgets on a stockish system sounds really good, but w/e we'll have cm9 by them
I just hope they make it so sense widgets work in other launchers, like make them part of the system instead of the launcher. I really hate the rosie launcher, it just seems so stupid if I get a replacement launcher I can't even use the stock music widget.
The thing I disliked the most about sense is there wasn't really any customization. You HAD to have 5 screens. No more no less. And it's so baked in that if you use a different lockscreen you have to unlock and put in your password if you want to answer a call

Sense 4.0, you disgust me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rod0rzGGXM&feature=player_embedded
Just Wow
It has a WP7 style kind of. It is laggy on a dual core w/ 1gb RAM. It must be in beta because it does not even flow well. It should be improved drastically... I hope..
It doesn't look smooth at all, and to be honest, it really isn't that big of a step up from Sense 3.0... I hope this isn't the final version
Well,
One good thing is coming out of HTC sense 4.0 not being the finished product yet:
IF the Amaze 4G is supposed to get ICS 4.0 with HTC sense 4.0, then "It ain't ready to be released yet!"
Again, that's a big IF.......
YAAYYY!
It looks like a knockoff version of touch wiz if you ask me. I mean I think that they should stick with the 3.5/3.6 look its a lot better. but this is just terrible.
guys stop nagging about it, i bet this is still in beta test of their developers, of couse is gonna be laggy, the fat lady aint singing yet, the phone its not even out to the market yet
i wouldn't fret so much over the current lag. there is still the HTC Confidential watermark... this means the phone's software is most likely still in test cycle 1. there are usually at least three (four in my experience) TC's before the start of the pre-pre-release build. about two-three weeks later a pre-release build is sent.. then a release intended for 'public' testing. (i still have screenshots with HTC Confidential and then the Serial Number of the phone from the myTouch 4G which i began testing in the first weeks of August.. phone was released in Nov)
splash screens will change, user features will change, UI will most likely see revamp as well.
as for the hardware, that will not change.
I actually think it looks pretty good. I still like just raw ICS better though.
ya why do people think this is so bad? i mean the dock is kinda ugly, but then again i've always hated htc's more than useless 3 shortcut dock with an over redundant personalize shortcut, so what the problem is?
Euugh. This thing is hideous. I was expecting something similar to the base ICS. Glad I rooted. Hopefully we could get an aosp rom working.

Its not super ugly, i would rather have this than touchwiz.
I know for sure that this isn't what it is going to look like. I heard sense 4.0
isn't coming out for a few more months.
To be honest... I don't use sense for its dock look... Because if that was the case I would not use it. I use it for features. I must admit I like the weather widget and graphics I am okay with the lock screen. I look forward to the stuff they claimed to be adding to 4.0 I'm sure there will be better widgets and such as well. If I wanted ease of use and clean look I'd use my adw ex launcher. I love the gestures especially on a phone with a larger screen. Also like the app drawer much better than the sense one... To each his own. I much rather have those options on my dock than having to make shortcuts to all those things since my dock is next to useless

lol its funny when i see almost everyone *****ing about it. i think its an approvement.. are you guys saying you would rather have Sense ALWAYS be the same exact thing every single update? how boring is that.... seriously.
also, a lot of you know how we can change out docks and what not in older versions of Sense. do you think HTC would make it to where that is the only dock available? im sure they are smarter than that..
Edit: by "you guys" i didnt really mean a lot of people in the amaze thread, pretty much pointing at all the hate on Youtube and the mytouch forum got a lot of hate too for some reason. when the mytouch ROM is way more ugly than that xD

Compared to Stock ICS? No offense, but I don't think so.
I agree Sense was better than Stock Froyo or GB...
Again, I might be jumping too early... maybe I'll have a change of mind once I do some hands-on with actual Sense 4. Till then, my opinion -- Don't like it.
actually, yes compared to stock ICS as seen on the GN, i totally agree... a complete eye-sore...
but it is definitely a great looking sense UI. i mean really what did you expect from HTC who's main platform has been sense? you will never see a nexus looking UI from them. haha
Specs are the same as ours basically. Plus it has capacitive buttons which ics doesnt need. HTC is failing to me. Plus all HTC phones look the same. Where is the variety?
Twitter: @knowledge561
Blog: knowledgexswag.tumblr.com
really dont all devices kind of look the same? i mean really. rly.
look at the sgs2, galaxy nexus, OG nexus...
look at the motorola line... atrix, photon, atrix 2...
iphone... self explanatory.
they all have the same basic design, with small cosmetic features that make them unique. in the end it's going to be a rectangle with a screen on it... not quite sure why it matters
I hope they give an option, either use sense or use stock ics launcher.
Making Sense ugly gives us something to do..
edit:
and I wish it was quad core..
It may be just me but I personally am getting kinda sick of the phones with the bumpouts on them...Id much rather them make the battery bigger and have the back of the phone completely flush...
just my 2cents on that aspect. I honestly dont care for the 4.0 launcher as it looks like they took a step back from the look of 3.5 launcher imho.
When I looked at images I couldn't help but wonder if it (Sense) is a WIP build.

HTC is General Motors of phones.

This new Verizon phone is nothing more than a 3d with ICS, a slight cosmetic change, and without 3d capabilities..... That business decision didn't work out well for GM and it wont for HTC either.

This is not very close to really use as an analogy. The only reason why it didn't work for GM was because of the recession. They offered the same vehicle under different companies with minor changes, but the same internals. And they catered to multiple budgets.

HTC says Sense UI 'got cluttered' before latest redesign

Let's try this again:
One of the more interesting announcements from our beloved manufacturer at MWC 2012 was that they admit that Sense had become too cluttered and ask us to expect a much leaner design in 4.0
http://www.theverge.com/2012/3/2/2840336/htc-sense-ui-got-cluttered-redesign
This is promising, because it demonstrates that your voice is heard.
I wonder if they decided this since their sales have been going down, people speak with their wallets, and that's when companies take notice.

RAM to spare is not how Android works. If you have too much spare RAM in Android then your apps aren't loading effectively. OT, I didn't think Sense was cluttered. I just didn't like the way it used screen real estate. The newer Sense 3.6 is more to my liking. But to me if you're going to take out the traditional Sense launcher then why not just go AOSP plus Sense widgets?
yeah the way in which the op of this thread posted this was in a mature, intellectual manner that can spark a true discussion, unlike the other thread.
I love sense, but yeah i agree sense 3.5 seems much more hoggish than 2 did, and of course 1. it'll be cool to see what's up their sleeves for 4.0,even though I love 3.5

I respectfully disagree. The OP's intentions in the other thread were to deliberately cause turmoil to people that actually enjoyed Sense, which, inevitably, lead to a flame war.
The OP in here realized that and actually said, "Let's try this again." His intentions are to try to have a nice discussion about the subject.
To add to the topic, I'm sure the new Sense will be a lot less resource intensive and I hope it will be as quick as some AOSP ROMS. I like some aspects of Sense on the Rezound, but it really does consume way too many resources.
I really like the Weather and **** Widget and that was one of the things I missed on my Incredible when I moved to AOSP ROMS. Also I liked the Dialer a lot, too. Sense 3.5 does make things "look" a lot nicer compared to AOSP, but I do agree they have "cluttered" it way too much in Sense 3.5

This announcement has me more excited about Sense 4.0 because rather than loading it with more features, like most updates, they might actually be slimming it down! I'm hoping for smoother window and transition animations, as a result.

once again, its a phone, not a 30k car. If you don't like sense, shouldn't have bought the phone. Expecting an htc phone to not have sense is ignorant at best considering every android htc phone has it.

what does sense 4 add over 3.6 that we have now in the leaks?
Regarding the OP:
Yeah, I am REALLY excited to see them changing their tune on this. It was pretty concerning to see the HTC guy at the CES roundtable so vehemently defending Sense ("It's not a skin, it's an experience").
I also don't hate Sense, but I do think there's a lot they can do to lighten it up and modernize it. Running an ICS ROM right now is pretty jarring as you transition between Sense and stock (Holo) apps and interface elements.

the phone already flies, it can't get any faster for me. Button presses are immediately recognized, I can scroll the home screen without lag.
The days of saying that sense is slowing down the phone are gone for me.
