Lol haha, so typical behavior then! Anyway, like the guys said yesterday, not impressed by iOS6.

The 3GS is getting it... But the 3rd Gen iPod with the same specs isn't?!?!

Stupid apple marketing. And call android fragmented?? The update for 3GS called iOS6? It is much more like iOS5+, with like 2 new features, much like Samsung's ICS value pack...

Push this apk to /system/app, reboot, and see if you have this widget - http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg210/scaled.php?server=210&filename=myonevrc11.jpg&res=landing (3rd image, 2nd widget from the top)

The widget is from a One S ROM. Someone in the One V Dev section incorporated this (and 13 other similar widgets) in his ROM. I'll PM him and ask now. Thanks. I don't care for these widgets, but i guess if these can work, so can the 4x1 clock with full screen animation and flip effect ;)

@olyloh6696 - Found the "off topic thread" ;-) I used your avatar as I couldn't get any other avatar I chose to work... Or so I thought, After several fails I just copied one I liked from the fallout thread (YOURS), As I saved the changes I noticed it said "it can take several minutes for avatar to appear in threads (DOH) I left yours on there to see if it worked and it did... That's about the whole story mate!!

I used Androidify for it, its suppose to 'look' like me :confused:

Perhaps you could propose this to lowveld in the Fallout thread? He would know what to do!

See...? I keep on telling You all. 3.4 is the best rom ever. :) Seriously, why would I even want to change to anything else? Dream rom would be official ics with sense 3.6 tweaked by Lowveld, but for now nothing else can touch it.

[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
Only my humble opinion, but the ONE S will not be a big enough upgrade from the DS. The DS is one hell of a phone for the price.

I would sit on the upgrade until October when the new iphone will be released then the One X will be a lot cheaper and even the SGS3

As an alternative, You could also buy another phone on the second hand market (ebay) to keep you happy. A SGS2 or Sensation XE could go for just over 200 and that way you still have your upgrade intact. both phones have good dev base.

One S is not future proof enough for two years.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
The problem you have is nothing is future proof. My brother got the GS2 when it came out and he still has another year on the contract. Even the GS2 won't last that long. If it were me, I'd go for it. Especially if you get the S4 chip.
[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
The other alternative is a galaxy nexus but don't know how tied you are to sense.

With the gnex you can immerse yourself into the world of aosp and put anything you like on the phone. It will supported for a long time and they have a huge dev base
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
You shouldn't get a GNex now, it's pretty old and the next nexus is probabaly coming up soon. I would get an S4 One S if i had the option, seems pretty awesome.

[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Simple answer: none better. Feels like home to me.

Sense 4 looks good and all, but the camera is kinda ****ty. Widget info keeps disappearing and reloading, especially on friendstream. Android fragmentation has reached new heights with ICS and as we approach jellybean announcement, most of my favorite apps have still not been optimized for ICS. After months on ICS, I still haven't found anything revolutionary that ICS offers over gb. Sense 3.5 just feels more complete, for lack of a better word...

As for why not on endy 3.5, well, I'm over the swipe to dismiss stuff, and 3.4 is all that I want from this phone.

Am thinking of upgrading to a larger screen anyway, and after the onegate that HTC pulled, the only real option left to me is the sgs3. Will miss sense sorely, but I think ill grow out of it, or wait till next year to see if HTC actually has a capacity yo learn from past mistakes. So far, its proven otherwise.

If tectas is reading this, any issues you've found with the SGS3...? Or do you heartily recommend it...?

[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
The next Gnex wont be out until November, so current version is still relevant.

Thats why I was saying to Oly to try and hold on until October and the new iphone scenario. Once the "motherphone" get released, everything else will drop in price.

Must admit I am looking at the SGS3 myself but the sim free price here in UK in £519.00 Quite drawn to the fact that in essence the bootloader is almost already unlocked and there will be a ton of devs on it.

But will wait until the price comes down which wont be long.

HTC have dropped the ball with the One X and the bootloader.

the only downside of this app is that every time you move your hand over the phone it will wake up. I am working at a desk, the phone is 10cm left of me and every time i reach out for the other phone or for the cup it wakes up.

I am really curious if it has a bad behavior will being in the pocket.

Issues:

brightness drops sometimes a bit without reason (already solved by community)

Homescreen redraws while returning from apps (solved by last update from samsung)

cell standby battery drain (partialy solved by community) (about 20 hours juice with about 4 hours screen time without the "fix")

That are the "big" issues i'm facing, i'm really happy with it and would recommend it for sure :)

I got a small white dot on the top front edge. I also had some chips and dents on the battery cover but I just got a new one for under 4 quid. I don't use a screen protector and fortunately I have not a single scratch whatsoever on the screen :D.

---------- Post added at 10:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

I think this is because ICS is still in a pretty early stage, not to mention that very few apps actually updated their UI to match ICS. I have a feeling that after a few months, when most apps have (hopefully) updated their look and feel, and we have proper kernel 3.0 support, the ICS experience may come close to the hype.

I've got one, right in the middle of the screen. it's only noticable when the screen's black, and can't see it when I'm outside, but these things have a way of niggling at you!

What roms does everyone use as their daily, if they have any on there long enough to call it daily. I keep flipping between reaper and miui gb. Always end up back on miui as I love the ease at which you can customize each desperate part with no additional launcher. Also the menus look great. Reaper is good as it fast and smooth. But I'm a miui lover deep down can't wait for miui v4.

I'm kinda bored of Sense 4.0 now :(

The browser is terrible and laggy, I've had enough of it. I used ICS Browser+, it improves the experience dramatically, but its still not as good as CM9, even though that doesn't even have kernel 3.0?! ICS Browser+ than the stock HTC one makes it smoother, but rendering takes up to 20 seconds...

I really wanna use AOSP, but the damn kernel 3.0 isn't here! God damn it HTC!

RELEASE THE KERNEL SOURCE! :mad: :mad:
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Yeah I didn't like sense 4 as much as I thought I would. I'm on IceColdSandwich now which I can without a doubt say is the smoothest ICS ROM. I just miss the CM9 lock screen weather and calendar :(

Sense is hardly anything to show off about now. I'd rather customize AOSP
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
What say guys!!

Guys, I was thinking of a ROM based on Sense 3.6 but strip sense parts and replace with AOSP, dont know how easy or difficult it is though!!!

Just an idea, would be interesting to combile virtuous Saga and inquisition from Sensation!!

Not sure about the time or effort that it would need as well..

Any experts out here or anyone willing to get hands dirty with me :D
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Speaking of customization, here's what my AOKP looks like. There is apparently no limit on how much you can theme stock Android. Maybe iOS 15 will have this feature, and revolutionize smart phones :p There are a LOT more of these morphs, look in this thread - http://bit.ly/NynmrQ (use his dropbox to download http://bit.ly/Lni2nY , the ones in the thread are not for HDPI , use it for screenshots) They should work for any ICS ROMs.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
LoL... I hope that answers your question as to why I am back to Endymion. But I would love to jump ship to AOSP/AOKP as a transition move to enable me to give up Sense as my next device will keep me away from Sense for at least another year. The decision's been made.... it's going to be the SGS3 (on 30th June to be precise) Whether I keep the DS or not is still under consideration, as the wife already has one (stock though) and it isn't making much sense having two of the same kind under one roof. The only reason I can think of is to have it around for my "tinkering with Sense" thingy...:p
[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
Been back on AOKP today as I get bored of sense sometimes and did the same as you . The rom is very smooth and has all the functionality of ics with ultra customisation.

The extra lock screen icons were a doddle once I had researched it on xda.
[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
Have you tried using chrome beta oly ??
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Hehe, i proposed this idea when sense 3.6 Saga leak was available :p Virtuous Inquisition looks supercool at the Sensation forums...

Damn, I've seen you really have set your mind on it then! Yeah it sorta of seems pointless, but it can always be your trusty backup!

Remember all the good things you've been through together... You're willing to sell the child?
