[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Yes, their support for the GS 2 has been very good and so it should be considering how popular it is, it really helped kick start Samsung's reign.

Sorry, I forgot about the Ace 2 but that leads to my second point regarding Samsung updates, the releases (especially the first ones) are usually always buggy:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...ndroid412-jellybean-downgrade-gingerbread.htm

Yes Samsung are MUCH better than the GS 1 etc. days (still hurt big time when I had my spica :p, not only did they pretty much have no support for it but they did an awful awful job with software/driver optimisation, phone improved massively in every area once rooted with custom stuff on it and the thing is, it was a pretty popular phone back then [for an android handset]) but it is just tiring seeing people "dissing" HTC for updates when the competition aren't any better overall.

Also, I always take what these companies "confirm" when it comes to updates with a pinch of salt, there is no guarantee as we have all witnessed, they could opt out near the end for all we know, the general excuse always seems to be something like "after much testing, we have decided to not provide the xxx update because the overall user experience isn't as good since the hardware isn't up to the task etc." and/or they could provide a buggy update and take forever to release a fix or even worse not at all........

Always the same... :(
[HTC One S] speedfreak007:
sorry for the off topic, I was a bit carried away I guess :)

anyway, I hope we get sense 5, and considering this is a semi high end device from 2012, I think htc is obliged to do so

[HTC One S] maek_it_happen:
Sense 5 is garbage ,
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
Personally I don't like it too, for this kind of reason:

1) they have removed the vast majority of sense widgets ( the most famous ones ) and while it's true that every user choose his combination of widgets just once ( like htc said ) it's also true that every user chooice his own combination with different widgets.

2) The have removed 3d slinding without any reason as sense 4.0 was superfast and there was no need to removed this feature on a phone with faster hardware nevertheless and more ram. And sense 4.0 was superfast on One s wich qualcomm cpu, it only lags on One x because tegra was initially with bad driver.

3) the have removed scrolling walpaper since sense 4+ which I don't like ( still no reason )

4) the white and black meteo widgets is horrible and they have removed an HTC classic, every time someone look at my one s likes the meteo ( the colored one )

5) the have removed the ring to uncock the phone which was super fast and very nice to substitute it with a lock which is not so fast to use ( for example when walking ) and it's not even nice

6) they have returned to horizzontal scorlling...what the hell!!! they started with sense 2 with horizzontal scrolling, then vertical scrolling ( which I very very much prefer ) and then again on horizzontal for no reason.

7) blinkfeed is nice but it's the only thing decent and really doesn't justify all the rest, it's just a pages of the desktop. They could add it and leave the rest.

After all this points I say that I won't update my one to possible and future sense 5.0 official/custom updated. ANyway this is not because I don't like update ( HTC have to support phones better ) but because I don't like what they have done on sense 5.0.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
I do not like the sense app drawer or launcher in general at all (never have), however, I would be using nova anyway so those things won't be a problem at all.

Blinkfeed looks all right, would never use it though, again not a problem, disable all the sources and swipe to the right or just install a different launcher.

Most of that stuff is easily fixable with 3rd party apps so why complain about things, which can be easily fixed in one way or another (without having to root)......

For me sense V5 is epic for these reasons:

- nicer UI, more minimal and closer to stock android look

- no longer has labels for the icons on the top i.e. menu under the 3 dots

- got rid of the stupid big tabs on the bottom of some sense apps and replaced them with the stock tabs at the top, this will suit our smaller screen/lower res. far better

- zoe and the camera plus the gallery with live tiles/thumbnails are the highlights for me

- less bloated and less demanding so performance should be a bit better and we should get a wee boost in usable storage

- it might be more power efficient so better battery life

- better lockscreen

The person who was wanting quick setting like stock android, the reason sense doesn't have that is because it isn't based on the newest version of JB i.e. 4.2.2, once we get that update (supposedly we are getting the newer version of sense and 4.2.2 not the current one based on 4.1.2) then we will have those quick settings

Also worth pointing out that pretty much ever review site has rated sense V5 very highly and many think it is the best skin of android to date.
[HTC One S] WasifSal:
U see... For "sense" fans... The great look and all of sense 4.x is just lost. I personally dont like the new "launcher". The transitions as everyone has said are gone. And those EPIC widgets they had. Sure they can be brought back again by modding (i hope). But why in the first place?

And the thing that i really hate about the reviewers is that they prefer "Stock Android". I dnt know why they do that.. U want a stock look just flash any "stock" rom. Ur an android consumer... Rooting and flashing isnt so complex to any one.

I loved the widgets on my one X and the overall transitions etc. They gave a premium finish. The animations they did within the widgets were just epic. I haven't seen any other OEM challange that.. Either way... If the one S/X is gonna have sense 5. Im gna wait for the modding community to port those... Then i'll think of updating
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
I agree about that part! Stock android whilst really nice in terms of the holo theme and overall app layout imo is crap compared to sense for these reasons:

- apps aren't as good especially the camera and browser, sense is the best for these 2 areas hands down

- lack of unified feel, again sense is the best for this area

I should have worded my previous post better, a lot of review sites prefer sense V5 to stock android too, this is probably the first skin that this has been said about, not just because of features but also due to the performance and from my use, the one definitely felt that bit faster and smoother throughout compared to the N4 and this is because of software optimisation, the CPU chipset is more or less the same as the s4 pro, only difference afaik is when it comes to most cores being utilised and power efficiency.
[HTC One S] slainbybeats:
Am I the only one loving the new sense? Don't test the port, test it on the one.

This is the best news ever
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Hmmm...........

Will be annoyed if the one S doesn't get the sense V5/4.2.2 update let alone receive it around the same time as the X i.e. no having to wait for like 4+ months! No reason why it shouldn't get the update in a timely manner, hardware is the same as the X but has a better chipset and the XL is pretty much the exact same phone except screen res.

If it doesn't then unfortunately, I definitely won't be touching another HTC phone :( Refuse to support a company that doesn't provide good

long term

support, why the xxxx can't google etc. sort the damn update area out, seriously it actually makes me want to abandon android all together and go for an iphone! :mad: :o

Will just have to make do without sense.

Roll on the moto X phone and 4.3 and if they fail to impress then I might just have to go down the GS 4 route and go back to rooting etc. *sigh* :(
[HTC One S] Seraz007:
dunno why people still like sense 4 better than sense 5

it's more minimalistic although some beautiful widgets have been stripped down :crying::rolleyes:
[HTC One S] maek_it_happen:
I dunno why ppl would want live tiles , on an android HTC device ....when they can go buy a windows device

Sense used to inovate

There is list of apps that were copied from previous sense versions because they were innovative features

Beatiful widgets made a killing off jacking HTC sense swagg .

They pretty much invented the power toggle widgets

It was by far the best overlay out of all mobile devices .

Add this sense 5 to the list of htc's list of fails

HTC fails

Unlocking method with no s-off -strike one

The whole beats phone with no beats headset - strike two

Facebook os - foul ball

Sense 5 - strike three

HTC YOUR OUT !

Only HTC device I might consider is Google edition one that comes this summer

And realy I only say that because there camera is outta this world
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
For those who do like sense V5/4.2.2 and want it as soon as possible, get in contact with HTC and tell them the usual i.e.

Contact them via one of the methods here:

Reason for this is because of this news:

[HTC One S] maek_it_happen:
No ill tell them to realease sense 3.6
[HTC One S] BackDaws:
Yep 3.6 was the best sense ever :)

Since Sense 3.6 they have picked sense to pieces, i dont get it, i bought a HTC phone because i love HTC Sense, i love the widgets and layout i always have, i hate stock Android its fugly and bland, the widgets are useless nothing compares to htc Sense, HTC need to stop listening to these arseholes that love vanilla Android and constantly complain HTC is full of bloatware and is slow, if i wanted a stock phone id of bought a nexus not a HTC.

im not updating to this pile of s**t no chance.
[HTC One S] maek_it_happen:
Exactly ! Couldn't of said it better myself
[HTC One S] IntelligentAj:
They obviously feel the need to change something in an effort to boost sales. Sense(and all skins for that matter)slows down whichever phone it's been on. I've never been a fan of Sense (different launchers work wonders) but HTC has the best build quality of all the phone manufacturers. Having the choice of HTC build quality and vanilla Android( customized of course) should be a win for everyone

[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Sense 3.6 was just awful imo, extremely bloated, ugly looking with that gloss look and too many sub menus/settings and most importantly laggy and slow as hell.

HTC have made the right move, they even admitted it themselves before the one S, X release that sense was just becoming too bloated at the cost of performance etc.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...product-line-but-theyre-going-back-to-simple/

Best move ever as before sense V4, I hated it due to those 3 main things.

The main reasons why sense is my favourite skin is because they have kept their awesome core stuff i.e. browser, camera, unified feel/look, however, have made it much more pleasant looking whilst optimising it so that performance and power efficiency is far better and probably the best skin for these areas currently.

Touchwiz is the new sense 3.6 afaiac, bloated and too many settings/submenus and as a cost of bloat in real world usage it is laggy.

My only complaint with the current sense is the stupid battery meter screens, was perfect on V4 especially since they went and removed the most useful stat, screen on time..........

Correct me if I am wrong but are most of the widgets not still there in sense V5 on the official version for the one? Could have sworn that I seen the calendar, HTC weather/clock widget etc.

[HTC One S] Habarug:
I like the new Sense 5. Sure, it isn't perfect, but I think it looks a whole lot better than the current version. I recently went back to stock and found out that Sense 4 isn't that bad. It never lags. Never. Sure it is a bit slow and clunky at times, like the multitasking which really sucks, but thinking about how the SGS4 with its mighty Snapdragon 600 lags, I have to laugh. The sad part is we'll not get Zoe, which is really cool. Oh, well, we can't have it all i guess
[HTC One S] adi4motion:
I'm really one of the oldest fans of android... I've owned a Samsung Galaxy Spica (Android 1.5), but it's sad that Android (even if it came a loooong way) it still lags even on such powerful hardware (you just mentioned gs4). Back in 2009 they (google) we're really optimizing the software to take full advantage of the hardware, now they just stuff Mhz, cores and RAM and the system still laggs.... they better do something about this, this should really be the primary focus (not tons of features, but quality software), they seem to do so with Android 4.0 and so forth (HWA, Project, Butter, UI Multithread Drawing (announced at I/O), etc. but it still have long way to go... a 1ghz single core processor with a Adreno 200 GPU should be more than enough to power the UI fluidly (not talking about games, but UI and Web Browsing), Apple did this with less on older models, the original Nexus One used to run very fluid with this hardware and even livewallpapers... what happened since then? Now you have a quad core snapdragon 600 and the UI still occasionally laggs... c'mon Google... fix this
[HTC One S] Habarug:
I wouldn't really blame Google. This phone doesn't lag, the HTC one doesn't lag and the nexus 4 doesn't lag. My old HTC hero was actually not that bad, even on 2.1. It is Samsung that has messed up a whole lot by adding a lot of crap to their phones to make themn easy to market. That's sad as they used to be the kings of android performance (the SGS2 was way ahead of everything else.)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
Has ASUS accidently blocked NVFlash through the JB update or was it purposely blocked in the JB 4.1.1 update?

Any word from ASUS about unblocking NVFlash in the future updates?

What are the odds of an explot in future updates?

Sign this if you havent already :good:https://www.change.org/petitions/asus-nvidia-revert-changes-in-jb-bootloader-that-prevent-nvflash
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
It was never officially supported - we always had to use a hacked bootloader to get the blob, and a special tool to enable nvflash. With the JB update they added signature verification for bootloader updates - I don't know if they did it to block nvflash, but I doubt that it was the main reason.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I doubt it too.

Having said that, if I was Asus I wouldn't want users messing with NVflash either so it's no loss to them that you don't have it. If you use the device as they intended it you wouldn't need nvflash.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
...or CROMI.

IMHO, they should give users who unlock their tablet their unique SBK. Since unlocking voids the warranty anyway, it would be only fair to give users full control over their device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Agreed but they have never done this. I had the original TF101 which on the first few revisions had a working NVFlash. Thesame thing happened. The version I bought had a updated bootloader and the NVFlash was a thing of the past.

The same has happened on the prime and on the TF300 as well as the infinity.....

Asus have no reason to give it to us really. In fact they make money by us not having it from people who have to send in bricked devices. Which by all accounts they replace the mainboard on and don't use any flashing tools to recover although I suspect they could do it that way. Unless they reflash with a new serial???
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Yes, unfortunately - as long as nobody offers a more open device with similar capabilities.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Futurust:
As per stated on my siggy, I currently have an Xperia S stock rom 6.1.A.0.452. With the new phone being with me for only 2 days, I only managed to root it YET and put a custom systemUI from around here. What I did was delete the stock systemUI.apk and stock systemUI.odex from system/app and replace it with the custom systemUI. Now my questions are,:

1. How do I get back the stock systemUI? Do I just replace the custom systemUI.apk with the stock systemUI.apk AND stock systemUI.odex? Or do I only move the stock systemUI.apk ONLY (not the systemUI.odex one)?

2. What exactly did happen after I deleted the systemUI.odex?

3. Do everything gets back to normal after copy pasting the systemUI.apk and systemUI.odex?

I did google first before posting this thread. Unfortunately though, it only got me more confused. Thank you very much :D

it has the look, somewhat. elements are pie shaped. the similarities end here.

no notifications, no panels, no toggles, no expand gestures, no snappoints, no refined design, no app colors, its not as fast, its not as cpu/battery friendly, its not polished and doesn't feel like its part of the OS. its a convoluted substitution. few of the things you see in these videos are possible with lmt. pie is slowly turning into a fullblown UI replacement with the same capabilities that your navbars have. this is way out of lmt's comfort zone because not even a root hack has access to statusbarmanagers internals, pie on the other hand is part of it.

pie is open source though, it would be easy to cherry-pick it and add it to your personal cm build. thats what open source is here for. many roms did it, you can take their squashed commits. if you cant do that and you hate PA i'd suggest rootbox. he's actively working on it, making it better.

1) I've rooted it and loaded the latest 2ndinit and am able to boot in recovery is this the correct method for loading new zipped firmware?

2) Do I need to upgrade the 2.1 eclair before going to the final cm9 or 10?

3) I've got a .csv file for my contacts and a .xml for my sms backup so I should be able to import those back in after upgrade, yeah?

4) Any advice on which CM to use, doesn't need to be the absolute latest, but just stable with good battery life?
