If we dont have sense 4+, I doubt we will get sense 5.

I think he means this specific feature.
But I don't know man, it looks like that requires a lot of Sense 5 features. Like framework stuff.

Umm we do have Sense 4, go check out the Nightmare Sense ROM. Ran just fine on my Amaze. It may be possible to port the feature provided that it doesnt rely on Sense 5 which would make it a lot harder to port.

Sense 4+ is simply Sense 4.1 that has been tweaked for JB. HTC incorporated some of the JB features into their widgets and thats about it.

Lol. That's not real source either. Probably more empty promises by HTC. But even if they do pull through, the Amaze isn't listed as one of the devices to get updated.

It won't happen. It's too late in their development process to make sense 4.0 for our devices. There probably already finished with 3.6 they are just waiting for final confirmation and allowance from carriers to push it. Although I'm not sure lol

HTC said that the new image processor is an important part of sense 4.0. So yeah that spec is something our phones don't have. How true that noone will know unless HTC gave us the Sense 4.0 source code.
They said first to that HTC Desire HD wouldnt get Sense 3.0 and it still got it. So who knows we will get Sense 4.0 official to.
We will see then. But I don't worry about an small think like that as there is already an sense 4.0 rom and I'm sure as soon we have official ICS for our device that the devs will make an fully functional sense 4.0 rom.

Important part lol..
They rebuild Sense 4.0 from the ground up! It's based on Sense 2.1 iirc, which is the best Sense version imho. The image crap they put in is nice, but it's more a brand thing.. like "Wow HTC has a dedicated Image Processor for better quality!". You can compare it to the Beats integration, it's cool to have it, but it doesn't add a whole lot to the overall experience.

So you've seen the code and see it's based on sense 2.1? It may look similar but we don't know what's under the hood yet.
I'm sure the bigger reason is they don't want to spend the money to rewrite the code for older phones, or the carriers don't want to split the bill for that work. Plus the non-vocal majority of people who own these phones will be quite upset if their phone UI is changed to something they're not used to. It's similar to Apple not giving you Siri on an Iphone 4 vs 4s. We all know that work is server side so it's not the processor, it's the fact that Apple wants you to buy a 4s vs a 4.
Does it suck, sure, but I can see the reasons on their end they went with sense 3.6 instead. Atleast we're getting ICS and an updated sense.
Better question is what does 4.0 offer that 3.6 does not...exactly.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Its true Sense 4.0 is much different from Sense 3.0. And be honest I think its an big change. So I can understand if they not include Sense 4.0 in the updates for HTC Evo 3D and HTC Sensation.

Is Anybody Planning on Making a Sense ROM?

Just curious. I might get this phone if there are plans for that.
Additionally, does this phone have the NFC in it?

Having come from a HTC device, which I ran as aosp, my comments are;
Sense widgets were easily replaced from the market. Many alternatives were superior to the sense equivalent.
You cannot have sense widgets without the sense kernel and framework
If it's touchwiz you dislike, just get a launcher from the market.
As a former AOSP developer, I have to recommend that you stay with sammy plus launcher for a while. Sammy roms are feature packed and you will lose loads by going to aosp. Don't jump ship until you know what you've got and whether or not you want it.

[Q]will we gets sense 4.1 update?

i just saw a news said that one series will gets a new sense version
and it's much faster than before and quick settings added by htc so will we gets that?
Officially, never in a million years.
We got Sense 3.6 with our official ICS update, while other devices got Sense 4.0.
So when we didn't even get Sense 4.0, we won't get an even newer version than that.
Unofficially, then absolutely 100% sure that we'll get some form of newer versions of Sense should it be released.

Most likely no. Never from HTC or Sprint. We may get a port but I seriously doubt any real development will be done.

I agree.
All Sense 4.0 ROMs still have major bugs.
HTC didn't release it for our phones with the ICS upgrade, so they won't release 4.1.
And, the development by devs on this forum is unlikely, since, like I said, Sense 4.0 ROMs still have major bugs, which means Sense 4.1 will only create more.
Not from Sprint
I agree, Sprint is not going to help us out. They were slow enough to roll out the office ICS update for us. And I haven't seen any evidence that HTC is planning this either.
I contacted HTC and they said that they are trying to get JB on as many devices as possible, may be a possibility, they don't have enough new devices to fit the title "as many devices as possible"... The one series has what, 3 phones.?

Its not that they don't have enough devices its that they don't want to make empty promises like with that Desire HD scandal.
They just want to test Jelly Bean thoroughly so they are sure the device will get better with new software.
As for the OP question nope not in a million years i even doubt we will get Jelly Bean even thought HTC is the best with the updates on the market but i think they won't bother to get us latest Android and beside Google Now has been ported to us and im already using it so now all i need is expendable notifications and then im all set.

Yeah, pretty much we'll have to rely on the community. Choosing to push ICS with 3.6 pretty much means 4.0 ain't happening.

a similar phone to the inc4g would really need to get sense5 to port it (and of course we need jellybean of our own first)
and since sense5 no longer uses m10 files (which is what is typically resized on roms now to fit different resolutions) not sure on the sizing issues
and theres no "building from scratch" its taking an existing rom and hacking it up to work on this device

No, he's right. Sense 4+ is the actual version name above 4.1. We've only gotten 4.1 so far. NBD anyway, Cyanogenmod is much better than any Sense ROM.
I believe the misunderstanding is that Sense 4+ is a different version other than what we have but Sense 4.x is actually what we have. If I'm wrong please correct me.

mdmower sense goes from 2.1 to 5.0, respestive order is
2.1 2.5(2.1 on gingerbread) 3.0 3.5(GB) 4.0 4.1(ICS) 4+(jelly bean) 5.0(only HTC one for now) and I still think 4+ will eventually be rolled out but sense 5 will be a hard port since resizing is gonna be harder

Unfortunately, being on Verizon, we are S.O.L. I doubt we'll see 4+ or Sense 5. I doubt we will even see JellyBean before most of us are eligible for upgrades. So for those like me who aren't in to flashing customer ROMS, we probably will not see it.
well, sure it might take some time before a possible JB update from verizon arrives for us. but personally I'd be fine if that's just 4.1.2 (latest 4.1.x JB that brings us "project butter" ) ...and comes with Sense4+. Sense4.1 already slimmed down the visual effects quite a bit and from my piont of view, Sense5 is slimmed down too much, over-simplified and removes that neat lock-ring that HTC Sense is so much well known for *haha* ... i'd really hate to loose it!
