[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Decided to create this thread to gather all possible rumours or news HTC might be releasing the new sense 3.5 for the Sensation and also to gather a list of what might have been improved in this new sense 3.5.

Changelog of sense 3.5

1. Screen rotation animation (yes the one like IOS)

2. New widgets - HTC notes & facebook chat & more...

3. New HTC notes app

4. Wifi connection display at notification quick settings

5. So much smoother and faster!

6. Ability to delete homescreens (no longer the 7 fixed homescreens)

7. Better and smoother camera with new panaroma effect

8. New music player and gallery with new UI

9. New app drawer design

Here are some videos demonstrating the new sense 3.5

and

I hope the sense 3.5 update would be coming to our Sensations soon :) Currently no intel on possible dates
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
I fixed your Youtube videos for you ;)

(it should be [ YOUTUBE ]uVBx_KXwAIE[ /YOUTUBE ]

Sense 3.5 is looking slick and smooth :D
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Should do as it's designed for lower-powered CPUs. I don't like it personally
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Did you watch the videos? It's not the crappy 3.5 thats doing the rounds at the moment...that's crap.

These are the real Sense 3.5...at least the Runnymede one is... :)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Looks no different to the one robocik ported over
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Hmmm seems like currently sense 3.5 is skinned differently for the rhyme and the runnymede. Seems like the skins displayed in the videos might be exclusive to the 2 phones :) we might get a different skin though

---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

The one in the first video is :) looks alot like our current sensation
[HTC Sensation] Speedy72:
Can hardly wait. I'd like to get rid of useless empty homescreens.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Who's even said we're getting it on our Sensation? Anyone from HTC been quoted saying it? Why would HTC put a lesser-featured version of Sense on their flagship phone?

It makes NO sense (no pun intended) to bring 3.5 to the Sensation unless they ramped up the features associated with a top-end device
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Sense 3.5 packs a ton lot of features than sense 3.0 actually. It has the new screen orientation animation and the new apps and widgets. Those are the key improvements to the sense UI. Well the improvement to the overall smoothness is also an important factor to me :D
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
OOoo, new animation. That's a really big feature!! Widgets, fair enough but HTC could easily bring them to the Sensation without needing a new version of Sense.

Bottom line is 3.5 is designed for lower-powered CPUs/cheaper handsets. HTC's flagship phone(s) will always run their most advanced version of Sense, not a cut down version to give the placebo effect of it running faster
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Hahas improvements to the new camera too ;) probably sense 4.0 in this case then
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Who the hell needs panorama mode on a phone camera??? Seriously...

Bar the ability to remove unused homescreens there are NO benefits that I can see with us getting Sense 3.5. Yes, Sense 4.0 may have these features, or even an update to Sense 3.0, but I can't see us getting 3.5
[HTC Sensation] mcarmona:
Sorry for the newbie question... but I have a Sensation with the Original ROM, Radio, and all, what are the benefits of flashing it with what you, for example, have?
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
The Sense 3.5 we're talking about is NOT the one taken from the Bliss, with those crappy little side/slide out widgets.

It's FULL Sense 3.5 taken from the Runnymede...watch the first video!
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Try out rcmix 3d runny Rom and you'll know. The camera not only has an improvement to it. It's also so much smoother. Basically sense 3.5 is alot smoother
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Personally don't like the look.

All I want is homescreen rotation and the ability to delete homescreens.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
RCMix 3d's Runny port is coming with the bliss' rosie and lockscreen, which means it doesn't have the real sense 3.5, and Its still same as the bliss port.

The real sense 3.5 is much better, and it doesn't have the ugly lockscreen or the dock of the bliss.

This version of sense 3.5 is NOT designed for lower-powered devices, since htc Vigor is also featuring it, which has equal/better hardware compared to sensation.

I definitely like the new dock in real sense 3.5 launcher. looks much better that the one in sense 3.0

​

PS: Another new feature in sense 3.5 is the securebox in htc messaging, which OP forgot to mention
[HTC Sensation] chchang1:
It IS based on the runny leak, people liked the bliss quick launch so robo added it to the RUNNY leak.

The securebox is NOT new.

There is no new or old dock, I is from runny and the other from bliss....and sense 3.5 is sense 3.5, no fake or real kind of business....
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
I said the sense and lockscreen are from bliss, which they are. never said its not based on runny leak

Really? never saw it in sense 3.0

I was comparing the new dock on Runnymede to the one on sense 3.0, thats why I said newer.

Now about bliss and Runnymede; bliss is running a modified version of sense 3.5 that is visually customized for that device only. The one in Runnymede and Vigor is the Universal/Real version of Sense 3.5. I use the term "Real" and "not real" to refer to them. You can use ANY word that works for you.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I did, ran for 3 minutes before removing it as half of the sizing is wrong

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

OK, for some reason completely ignore it was 'normal' looking Sense. Not too keen on the dock, though
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
Its not released yet, why are we arguing about this? My prediction is that they won't upgrade us. Why? Cause they have vigor now. I don't really mind because sense is eye candy to me. But I'd love to have the dock from bliss (is it official? The drop to charge thing)

But we should be able to run it pretty well. Vigor and Runnymede has 1.5 so do we. And Runnymede has 205 while we have 220 ( or something similar)
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Hmmm currently I'll be trying to port the sense 3.5 notes app and the quick launch widget from HTC bliss to our sensation :)
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
are there any speculations of release date for sensation ??

thx
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
No that's what we're probably trying to hunt for.
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
htc's reply

I asked htc (via email) whether they are going to release a sense 3.5 upgrade for sensation or not?

They replied:

Very helpful, lol
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Lol one thing for sure at least, we'll be getting the ICS update
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
How would you know?
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Well not confirmed but based on my intuition :) I know HTC won't just abandon their flagship devices like what LG did, refusing to deliver the gb update till even now...
[HTC Sensation] JamesRC:
Looks like its coming... leaked ROM 2.08 for the Sensation has Sense 3.5 and Android 2.3.5.

Also looks like we'll see the speed bump to 1.5Ghz...

http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sensation_to_get_a_cpu_speed_bump_to_15_ghz-news-3190.php
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I take back anything I said before. Sense 3.5 is amazing. It's what HTC should've used from day 1 on the Sensation. Favourites things so far:

1. Ability to remove shortcuts from lockscreen

2. Removing unused home screens
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
What ROM are you using?
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
For sure... 3.5 has some cool new features and nice more defined eye candy in places. Other parts need some work but for the most 3.5 is indeed an improvement.

Everything seems much quicker than with any 3.0 ROM with stock kernel.

Can't wait for show-p & faux to start whipping up some custom kernels.
[HTC Sensation] ArcticWolf91:
He's probably using ARHD
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
My own based on the RUU ;) First day properly running it and since 7:15am I'm still at 88% battery (albeit with minimal use)
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Any bugs? If there aren't any, do you mind sharing your rom?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Had 1 FC of the Market (cause it's the wanky new one and it auto-updates from the old one :( ) and for some reason not all FB contact pics work but bar that it's going OK. I'm going to upload a version of it this evening (I remove a ton of stuff out of mine - widgets I don't use, etc) so you can give that a go
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
all 3.5 roms i tried lag when opening the dialer, scroll thru settings or app drawer.

stereo mic gain is gone! we can use proper stereo recording now w/o pops and cracks :)

lots of goodies in 3.5 and lots of common sense things too...cant wait for final release
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Try this rom. :) fastest and most stable by far, they've even got the 1.5ghz bricked kernel running already :)
[HTC Sensation] Scrupix:
According to this guy, the update it will come very soon and also it says that he is already running sense 3.5 (official one) on his Sensation...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQHiJFmvQkU

Unfortunately, no official news regarding the update, I even emailed to Htc and (like always) they said that they don't have no info regarding this update

I really hope that they will release this update
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Several ROMs (InserCoin and ARHD) are already using this ROM as a base. It's nothing new.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
HA!!

That video is MY ROM as well!! :D
[HTC Sensation] Scrupix:
Yes, I know, but I was curious if the Htc will push the official update OTA to Htc Sensation devices, without be necessary to root, or change my ROM ;)
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
nice :) the video was what brought my attention to sense 3.5 :D I did not know what was the improvements at first
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I mean the one on the previous page - not on the OP ;)
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Ooh :) hahas sorry didn't catch that just now >< Woah thats the first video on sense 3.5 for the sensation :)
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
This won't exactly be breaking news as we have test roms floating around, but at the HTC Beats event last night, a HTC employee confirmed to me that we will definately be getting sense 3.5 on the original Sensation.

He also took loads of photos of my chromed up Sensation, he couldn't even tell it was a Sensation at first :D
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Were you there? It looked awesome on the stream, apart from Will.I.Am's, pretty piss poor, DJ set
[HTC Sensation] Scrupix:
wow, this is great news (at least for me it is) I guess he didn't say any ETA about the update?!
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Yeah, I was more delighted by Beardyman to be honest, during the ZEDD (?) set I managed to blag my way into the VIP area, so free champagne and well, it became a bit of a blur after that.

No ETA sadly. But with custom roms we get a nice gradual shift to it as the leaked tests make their way to us. Only just installed 4 myself. The Sensation XL with Sense 3.5 on it had 200 meg of ram free but obviously no apps running in the background like mine will do.

Had a mate, Tom Warren from Winrumours.com with me, who has a HTC Titan - he took some side by side shots:

http://twitpic.com/6w68yb/full

Sorry, accidentally seem to have shown us meeting Dre, meant this one:

http://twitpic.com/6w6mf4/full

Thats obviously the Titan, Sensation XL and my Chrome'd sensation on the right (incidentally my hand too!)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Jammy bastard! I'd have been all over Ms Cole, she was looking pretty hot. Not normally my type but meh!
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
To be honest, if Cheryl Cole or Lady Gaga had been stood next to me, I would have had no idea. Obviously her hat would have ultimately given the latter away but I don't really follow her.

The whole evening rapidly escalated into a hell of a night.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
And it was free wasn't it? HTC definitely know how to put on a show!
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Yup, until I got into the VIP area the booze wasn't free (unless I missed tokens) unlike the Titan launch. But the entertainment more than made up for it - have wanted to see Beadyman live for ages.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I literally sat and watched the stream until 12:45, at which point I needed to get to bed for work this morning. Gutted I didn't know there was going to be that sort of lineup as I woulda blagged it down
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
I'm just gutted I actually missed the press event at 5pm :D
[HTC Sensation] Wicio666:
sense 3.5 on ICS

and do we know if sense 3.5 will be on ICS (on htc sensation) or even if sensation will get ICS update ?
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
No sense 4.0 would most probably be the one for ics
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
any news about the release of Sense 3.5 update?
[HTC Sensation] xyqtt:
Why would htc not release sense 3.5 in the past month. It's floating around for a long time. The only update the've made in the pas month was the security fix. Because they had too. I think this sense 3.5 is designed for ICS. You're not going to tell me that HTC and other manufacterers didn't had acces too ICS in the last month.

The release of sensation Xe test build and non test build didn't take this long. I think we will get ICS around december. November will be nexus prime ics only
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
i think that nobody will see ICS oficially before 2012...except for the other NEXUS....
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
Well HTC did predict Google to launch out ics for others a couple of weeks after nexus prime (refuse to call it galaxy prime, stupid stupid name.) So yeah about middle of December or beginning of 2012.

Sent g.
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Yea I agree, I think they're gonna release 3.5 before they implement ICS.

Not that ICS is gonna revolutionize how we use our phones, it looks to be more like a step toward OS integration with visual improvements and service integration. Google has finally realized that to capture the heart of America, they're gonna have to appeal to a larger demographic than Spartan Minimialistic Nerds (read: put in more eyecandy/integrate social networking so people will start using android more)
[HTC Sensation] Pikabat:
Would you guys prefer to get Sense 3.5 and then ICS or wait for ICS with Sense 4.0? :D
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
we will receive sense 3.5 with gingerbread 2.3.5 (as the test leak is already available).

In my opinion HTC will create an other relase of Sense UI dedicated to ICS
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
The former. I don't think HTC can work that fast, haha. We've had the leaked versions for a while, but haven't heard anything about official releases yet.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Wicio666:
Do you think if HTC sensation (not XE) will get update do ICS (and in future sense 4.0) ?
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
XE is the same as sensation. And 95% on the ics if you want it officially but 100% for cyanogen9.

Sent g.
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
HTC must update. he made an agreement with Google (also Motorola, SE, Samsung, LG, ecc. did it) to support the devices with updates at least for 18 months....
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
So why isn't the thunderbolt getting gb and sense 3.0. An agreement might be made, but whether if they stick to it or not, is another matter.

Sent g.
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
the agreement is not about the timing of the release...unfortunately
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
that leaves us at the same position as them then :D
[HTC Sensation] Pikabat:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TNjbTSk8H8

Is this really what we will get? or its just that Verizon screwed the system? Imo its worse then 3.0

I dont like changes to sms app., the cool 3D sticker effect is really nice also music app looks kinda boring. Oh and unlocking the the phone to see just a full page non configurable widget ??? WTF is that?
[HTC Sensation] bestIQ333:
release date

you have any information about release date ? or if its already out how can i upgrade it by myself ?
[HTC Sensation] larzy:
Custom ROM with gingerbread and sense 3.5 is aval in development forum. Pretty easy to flash and install and the ROM puursss
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Woah now it's sense 3.5 with ics rom
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] networkn:
Hi There!

I am looking for a very quick and easy WiFi friendly way to get video's from my PC to my GT. I am thinking something as simple as click an icon on my GT and see the videos stored on my PC, and then be able to click to play them.

I have TVersity, but it requires logging into the web browser, authenticating, scrolling through, clicking and waiting for transcoding, and it's pretty rough in terms of quality.

Something almost like a FTP or Dropbox (Local Wifi version) would be ideal.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
I've read about an app like this but i can't remember what it was for the life of me...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hn3012:
check out BUZZ Player in marked
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] simonk83:
Has anyone tried plex?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] darktranquility18:
Gmote is the best app for that
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
The "best" app for this will always be debatable. Just find one that suits your fancy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] twigster:
you want to stream the videos?

I use Emit from the market. there is a free version and a pro version without ads (only difference i can see). I use it all the time and it works great. You just need to install the client on your PC and show it which folders you want to view.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jastop:
es File Explorer works well for me

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] simonk83:
Doesn't play MKV's unfortunately. Just tried Plex and it seems to work great (although you do need the software on your PC). That'll do :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] |flyte|:
Mount a shared drive onto your tab via cifs and watch using any media player.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] burhanistan:
Gmote.

Bonus is you can use it as a remote for your PC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] rcy1:
For streaming video from my desktop to my Tab, I'm using VLC (on the desktop) and VLC Direct Pro (on the Tab). It works fine with .avi and .mkv I have yet to test it with other formats (like .mp4 etc.).

You must have VLC runing on your desktop and you have to enable a certain setting (can't remember what it is, sorry, but when you start VLC Direct on the Tab it will prompt you to enable the setting in VLC on your computer).

VLC for desktop is free, but if you want more than a few minutes of video on the Tab, you need VLC Direct Pro (not just VLC direct) which is about $3.

Is there a way to get the charging light to work without using a custom rom. Thanks in advance.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
By default, the charging light is only on when the power is off. A custom rom is the only solution to your issue at this time.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
...or a custom kernel.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny0911:
Thanks, custom kernal worked great.

So right. I plum forgot to say that.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al mon:
On one of my Xooms, I'm running ICS Stock ILM77 and Moto didn't change the charge light feature (bug) where it does not turn on when the Xoom is not turned off.

Can I flash - Charge Light Toggle from Rogue on ILM77?

Here's the build: http://www.android.net/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=124

Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al mon:
For those wanting to know if you can flash that Zip to ICS, you can. I did this and did not experience any issues (yet). :D

UPDATE - Charging light does work, however, it never turns "green" when fully charged in ICS.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lancemoreland:
I just flashed this on CM9 and it works as it should, turns green when fully charged.

Hi, I'm running HyperDroid-CM7-v3.0.1[a2sd][CyanogenMod7 LEO 2.3.5] with ADW Launcher Ver. 1.3.6 CM 1.1 and I love it.

Only problem I have found so far is the icons of the context menus on the desktop are grayed out, but they do work. don't know how to fix this.

Anyone with a solution for this ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
This is an issue within the framework-res.apk or maybe SystemUI.apk .

The only way to fix it is by editing the aforementioned files.

You could also report it in HyperDroid's Thread.
