holy....
i was just thinking the other day "meh, looks like sense 4.1 will never get wimax" i stand corrected
good to see you around here again

Thank you! I tried using a Sense 4.0 rom and I loved it but the only problem was no 4G so I had to go back to 3.6. I knew about the lack of 3D and that was ok with me, but WiMAX sometimes is the only way I can get decent data so it will be nice to get go back to Sense 4.0. Unfortunately I don't think 3D has much of a chance, but that would just perfect the phone, why HTC decided to go with Sense 3.6 over the much better Sense 4.0 is beyond me...

Newt! U R Back !!!
This ROM got me interested in this whole thing in the first place...
I'll be waiting with Bells on 4 your update.
Good 2c U back.

Say whaaaaaat? I was just about to leave my sense 4 Rom too. Thanks dude!

Thanks. Lack of 4g in a sense 4.x rom is what's holding me back from using one.

"Soon" is a relative term and that's all we have at this point.
I'm sure that if the testing was successful this thread would have been updated with that information.

Oh, cool! I tried this ROM when it first came out and really liked it, but since 3g is completely unusable I couldn't use it for more than several hours at a time (mainly while I was at work). I vowed to really make this my daily once it was complete (4g).
I had actually kinda forgotten about it since then.

4g in a sense 4 rom would be awesome.

bah , no 4g in romania , nothing to complain about sense 4 roms except 3d which I actually don't use at all xD but is good to show off xD

Whazzup?
Does anyone know what happened with newtoroot's 4G on Sense 4.1?
Haven't heard anything for quite a while now.

I'm going to propose a controversial theory. Let me preface it by saying I believe newtoroot to be an excelent if not the best actual developer on our device. He brought Sense 4.0 before anyone and it was nearly flawless on the first drop. That being said, I think one of two things:
1. Newtoroot was playing us. (I doubt it, but someone suggested this and anything is possible.)
2. Newtoroot had high hopes, but it was more difficult than anticipated and is either taking longer or has been given up on.
Those being said. In his thread elsewhere he has stated that he is out of work and trying to find some. As well as dealing with the things that being out of work bring. So lots of personal stuff may indeed have gotten in the way.
I would say that if it were possible, or at least easier, one of the several other developers working on Sense 4.0+ roms would have attempted of done it already. I don't personally use WiMax often so it is not a big deal. I do appreactiate all the devs that work on our device. I usually swap phones every few months, but have kept my EVO 3D since the day it came out. Next summer when my 2 years is up I will upgrade to something with LTE hopefully, but till then I can still feed my flashing adiction and gets lots of performance out of this still powerful phone.

I do think it's a tough nut to crack. My theory is that's why we have Sense 3.6 and not Sense 4 - even HTC had trouble getting WiMAX and 3d working on 4 (or didn't want to put the resources behind it since both are relatively dead, at least for now).

It would have been nice to have 4G on it, although I don't even get 4G in my area..

Sense 3.0 is nice and all, but I can't wait for CM...

Loving my new phone! It's wicked fast and it's just plain badass. I've removed what ever bloatware I could, but in all honesty I wish I could remove Sense and go to CM on this phone I can only imagine how fast it's going to be! Sadly it'll probably be a long time before things like 3D get ported into CM (WiMax, anyone?) but I think the wait till definitely be worth it.
This phone is fast, but you have to admit, there is A LOT of crap on it, and most of it is HTC related. Don't get me wrong, it all works, but I'm a simpleton in that sense (no pun intended).
I think it it funny that people only care about how fast there phone moves. The EVO 3d moves fast enough to do anything you want to do without a hiccup and has the wonderful overlay of Sense.
What else does CM7 give you? I ran it on my EVO and it is not like it will make your EVO 3d a step up from what it is now. It just brings you back to basics. If it is basics that you want, why not just buy a Nexus 4G. I am sure CM7 runs pretty fast on that.
Maybe when we have CM8 with ice cream it might be worth moving to as it hopefully boosts some new features for us and the CM team will probably have it ported before HTC gives us an update for it.
Right now I say Sense 3.0 ftw!
Right on. I'm a hugggggggeeee cm7 fan for my evo 4g but this 3d has wings.... EVEN with sense going.

Yea if the phone goes any faster it'll run things when you think of pressing it lol.
But Running CM7 will let you just load billions of things on it at once with the extra space

As is common practice.. the more power the device has, the more the devs use.
Sense 3.0 is a HORRIBLE display of overindulgence. I know people will like it, and that is all well and good. Not everyone needs all that extra RAM and storage the phone came with (to cover for Sense). But, I can't wait to get rid of Sense. I don't use it, except for the integration that I can't disable.
I can't wait until we get optimized builds of the stock rom. Maybe a little themeing too.

Amen. This. It is pretty, but most of that 'pretty' is, well, pretty functionless...and that out of 1024mb of RAM I have ~225mb free with nearly nothing going on? Sad.
Sure, sense is sleek...kinda...but it's a bloated sloppy hog of a shell/ui/launcher. LP/ADW rock ass on this phone, I just wish I could ditch all of the pointless cruft Sense drags along....not to mention some of the more advanced tweaking the custom AOSP roms bring to the table, esp regarding performance and battery life.
I am pretty much all about change. Its fun to see different looks on the phone, that's why CM7 was soo refreshing for my OG EVO. Then I bought the Nexus S and loved the pure google experience, and now I am appreciating the Sense 3.0.
There is definitely quite a bit going on with this sense 3.0...but it is hard to imagine it ever having issues as far as performance is concerned. So I am in no rush whatsoever for CM to make it's way on the EVO3D.
Cm is awesome. But just wait my friends. Once we get root, we will get this baby optimized, clean out the crap on here and then she will really take off. Also, getting the sensation and kingdom ports on here will be cool.
I know virus is already looking at stripping out the sense to give it the turbo boost most are looking for...

yeah, i thought i liked SENSE, but I miss my DECK and CM bad. I even resorted to running spb shell for now, I couldn't take all the senseless crap
I love CM. The latest updates as fast as possible plus custom tweaks that make the phone that much more easy and usable. Sense isn't too bad just yet as it's still new again to me, but things like the unlock/answer screen when a call comes in and the god awful notification bar and curtain make me hate it. Can't wait for CM.

I'm indifferent about the notification bar/curtain... It's not bad.... I like the CM styling better, but only slightly.
I switched to this bad boy from a Hero running AOSP Froyo, and I realized how much I missed sense. On the hero it was terrible, when it couldn't run anything, but with this phone I love it. So intuitive, and the music player and everything is great, I sure don't see myself dumping sense 3.0
Don't understand why you would buy an HTC phone to throw out Sense and go with generic CM ?
If I was gonna run CM 7.1, for sire would not buy an HTC phone, these phones are so thick and bulky and poor battery life. Even with custom kernels and different roms its better, but I would get a Galaxy S 2 a milion years over the EVO-3D for CM 7.1
I buy the EVO for Sense #1, and wait for the best Sense based Rom made by Myn. It is way better than CM.

Those features come at a price, one that I'd rather not pay. I'm glad you enjoy em, I just can't wait to shed em.
I think tried CM7 and I enjoyed it but I can't wait for MIUI to make it or even MYN and Evoking to put their touch to it. That is definitely worth the wait.

Just because the rosie is pretty much the same doesn't make the apps and all that goes with it the same. Willing to bet people will flash and enjoy. Like all other roms. Breeds or custom roms are much better as you already know.

ICS with sense leaks for the Sensation

http://www.androidcentral.com/ice-c...on-leaks-out?utm_source=ac&utm_medium=twitter
Looks extremely underwhelming...
Better than I expected.
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
Still looks horrible. =[
I think it looks terrible...nothing like ICS.
I'm Batman..
How is it "extremely underwhelming" ? Did you really expect a Sense-free release?! What were you expecting to get?
We are getting a major API revision and the long awaited HW acceleration.
This is far from underwhelming.
Its time for HTC to make sense OPTIONAL. Half of us switch to AOSP roms anyways. Looks like junk compared to stock ICS though.
Meh, boring, much rather prefer vanilla. On the plus side I guess it will help EVO 3D development.
It doesn't look much different from ginger bread with sense.
Guess whats getting ported today
I don't see the issue. It's updated, It's how HTC makes it, if It's not pretty, we theme it. If you don't like sense, then why comment? Obviously you're going to run cm9 or some other form of aosp.

"Sense based ICS ROM." It wont be the real deal until HTC releases it themselves in my opinion. Also, just leave it alone Joelz.

It is not too hard to build an ASOP if we have a working rom
So how did they get this? j/w b/c this is the first pure leak ive seen for us since Sinper's site was shut down long long ago. EDIT: I guess Capy has a source inside HTC to an extent!! Wish we could get an EVO3D leaker to come out lol.
Also to the Sense 3.5 on it is a little confusing b/c it looks nothing like either of the other sense 3.5 phone builds out, the high power one nor the low end device one.
I agree it likely/HOPEFULLY is saying sense3.5 on it b/c they are not fully done with it yet.
Keep the Thread Clean Guy's or you will force me to lock it
So with the port I'm gonna say that 4g won't work?

Sense 4.0 or AOKP/Cyanogenmod 9

Hey everyone, I wanted to know your guys' opinion on which interface you like more? Do you prefer Sense or AOKP/Cyanogenmod 9 and why?
oh and also, which one has better battery life?
The day cm9 works fine on this phone is the last day I ever use sense in my whole life.
typically for me (especially now that sense is actually decent) i stay with sense until a really nice stock rom comes out then go to that and after a few months go back to sense and so on and so ........................ect.
I have no problem with Sense, but always end up running CM. There are just too many tweaks I want to make to my phone that Sense ROM's never seem to bake in. With Sense ROM's I'm usually going "crap I wish I could do that!" With CM it's "Sweet! I can do that!"
I think i like sense more. It is more refined. I like the look of aosp ics though. I'm really hoping a nice blue sense theme is released sometime.
The hardware is good enough that i do not believe one will perform better than the other like in the past.
The fact that the notification light doesn't time out on stock draws me to it though. It is my biggest complaint about sense.
When CM9/AOKP becomes more bug free, I'll try it out. I used CM7 a ton on my OG and AOKP quite a bit on my 3D.
Until then, I'm not even rooting my phone. I see no reason to as of yet.

Ubuntu Touch porting guide

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
Guide for porting Ubuntu touch has just been published. It uses CM 10.1 as base(drives and stuff) so since we have CM port for our devices it should be relatively easy to port Ubuntu touch to HTC Evo 3D
Let the porting begin
I'm going to go to my warehouse today and grab me my extra Evo, and the porting will begin.
I just installed linux, I'm going to see what I can do aswell

After reading this , I'm not that interest anymore to try Ubuntu touch.
I watch the video and assumed that all shown there is already working, now I'm a little disappointed.
But hopefully in time they'll make it better. This is a developer preview after all.

Someone should actually do this : P I have my old evo 3d that I am not doing anything with and would at least like to try out Ubuntu since there is no dualboot yet for Nexus 4.
I'm partly through the porting. I've gotten quite a bit of bootloops, like, random ones. Sometimes the phone would boot up normally, then sometimes it will hang and then just go to a, what I call, recovery brick, in which I need to recover from it by running adb reboot. Once I get this all figured out, expect it to be available to CDMA users. I don't have a GSM 3vo, don't have the money for that! Hopefully I can get a friend of mine to donate to me for it, and I can work on that. I know for a fact that when I'm finished, the ROM will work with at least Virgin Mobile, I'll get my extra 3vo on Sprint for a month to see what I need to do, if anything to get it working through their network.

I would Love to give this a try when you get it done!
I would be more than willing to test this as well. As I foresee myself diving into Dev work for the EVO 3D. I'm learning so much from all yew awesome Developers here on XDA. I myself come from PC/Console modding/hacking/Overclocking & once I found XDA and bought an OV as my first smartphone I became hooked I love linux as its my goto OS so I would love to see this actually work!! If its based off 10.1 everything in theory should work except 3D...unless Canonical came up with a fix. Now that I think about it..if they did we could implement said fix into JB roms that have 3D borked. Sorry strayed from OP; I will test this for ya!!! CDMA EVO V 4g(3D) fully hacked down to HBoot S-off etc. Post a link or PM me
Bumping because I can
The beta's are now live, this includes GSM, texting and so forth. is someone already looking into this? I'm a GSM user so I will be looking into this for GSM user (looking into means private intrest, I won't be releasing anything to the community as of yet)
btw Im in no way a kernel developer so if someone is up to checking out the kernel stuff would be nice
As of the specs, we will be able to run it since this is from ubuntu themselfs:
Entry-level Ubuntu phones will require a 1Ghz Cortex A9 processor and between 512MB and 1GB of memory, while the high-end superphones that double as PCs will require a quad-core A9 or Intel Atom processor and at least 1GB RAM.
Note: These specs were found under the operators and OEMs section of canonicals website and may not reflect the requirements for installation on a android phone

yup...I think a lot of people didn't see the M9 as a real upgrade to the M8 and only for those who didn't jump from M7 to M8 combined with the horrible press about the overheating (I've yet to experience) and camera (love the camera updates for what I use it for) and whining about it not being 4k (seriously, who needs that on a phone?) means it's not been a very popular device.
Screw 'em...I think it's a huge upgrade from the M7, especially the camera (even in it's original iteration).
Many thanks to @OMJ @benny3 and @chas123 for supporting this device.

This maybe true but another thing to point out is that this phone is so complete that there is hardly anything left to mod or add. I'm mean the only thing left for you to add to the phone is to add the 5.1 update to your ROM. Other then that your ROM is so complete its been on REV 24 for over a month with nothing else to add or tweak. Of course there is the point you already made that this phone being so close to the M8 that your ROM was already matured through the M8 days.

Other then that your ROM is so complete its been on REV 24 for over a month with nothing else to add or tweak. Of course there is the point you already made that this phone being so close to the M8 that your ROM was already matured through the M8 days.

I could agree, but I'm still looking for a CM/AOSP flavor to rock on mine... And not to mention before the latest updates, we could still flash all those feature loaded ROMs. But lately, I'm hesitant to flash anything other than BadBoyz.

This is especially true when it comes to theming. You pretty much can theme it the way you want very easy. Im not a big themer or theme design, this latest Android 5.1 is very difficult to theme. Since its still new quite a bunch of apks are not compiling correctly and im not that skilled yet or have the time lately to figure out why, LOL. Other then the Viper Theming threads not much Theming has been going on throughout all HTC M9 versions.
You are better running badboyz for sprint, our firmware is extremely sensitive and with so many international versions using their base, our lte issues arrise of we aren't using a rom that supports our phone properly.

Traded my flex2 for a HTC One m9, rooted it, unlocked it, and then I installed badboyz the very first day. Love it. I'm so used to having cm/aosp on all my devices and I customize the crap out of them but I have to say that I have hardly seen any lag or performance issues on this phone. The phone gets pretty warm when doing heavy tasks like playing a game and what not but I don't find it any different then other devices doing the same tasks.
Either way, I love the m9. It's a well built solid device. I jumped at the chance to trade haha. Their loss

I will say this is probably the least active forum I have seen out of all the HTC's I have own which is every flagship for Sprint since the evo 4G (even going back to TP1 & TP2). That being said, OMJ's badboyz is awesome I have been using it since I got the phone. There is also no red text hboot and custom splash screens just like my M8 had. I like this phone, while really not much different from my M8 besides the camera it's not as big of fail as people make it out to be. I'm hoping the M10 is a nice refresh and hopefully HTC is done with trying camera gimmicks. I would like to see higher resolution screen next year & wireless charging.

The majority goes on in the overall m9 forum and not sprint as I guess devs don't want to check multiple forums.

I really don't see where development is lacking. As many have said there are quite a few roms in the main m9 forum that offer sprint support. If you look at the cm development device tree sprint support is added. What's missing?
LeeDroid, and Insertcoin drains horrible.......... lol any suggestion?
