Yep also got to agree, for me one of the biggest lures of the htc one was sense 5 and beats (i use my phone for music quite a bit)...

And in the past the HTC sense features have bogged phones down but not anymore sense 5 mixed with the hardware they are now using is just simply awesome, smooth and fluid and good battery life...

Ironically though i've just bought my Mrs son a new phone (budget smartphone) and avoided the HTC Desire C because of sense it does bog down cheaper phones and something like samsung / sony have much lighter ui's that don't affect cheaper phones so much...
[One (M7) General] istoyanow:
I agree with you. One of the best phones ever in the market. I cannot agree it is slow! Neighter in Power save it is still really fast and smooth ! :)
[One (M7) General] hello00:
better than sense for sure
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
How do u conclude that . Any ost screens to show ??
[One (M7) General] Mad_Duke:
Well, from a guy who uses Nova launcher because all stock ones just plain suck and don't have the options I want. There is no difference in sense or AOSP except stability, speed and battery life which is better on AOSP. So, I will choose AOSP as soon as IR blaster gets fixed. Next stop, porting the HTC Camera app (I really need it) and I am set.
[One (M7) General] ericshmerick:
I've been an AOSP junkie since the Google Nexus One (the O.G. version). Had every nexus through the N4 since.

After getting and using the new HTC One with Sense 5.0, I can honestly say I much prefer it over stock Android. Never thought I'd say that, but it's true.

With the way Google is pushing Google Services to all Android phones, having AOSP and the latest OS isn't a big deal any more. I actually dislike AOSP. It's too plain and I always found myself downloading homemade apps to mimic what's included in Sense and even Touchwiz.

New Android isn't old Android. It's come a long way and the manufacturer skins have matured to a very usable and practical level. Stock was essential two years ago, not so today, IMO.
[One (M7) General] tyraelasd:
I agree with you on almost everything but this : " Stock was essential two years ago, not so today ", the thing is that sense 5 is actually more appealing, faster and more beautiful overall, but that doesn't mean that stock android is a old software today.
[One (M7) General] Stokie2012:
Great to see so much respect for the work HTC has done with Sense, few differing opinions but that's also good.

1 thing is for sure, going from HOX to S3, S3 to Note 2 and then N2 TO One, the difference between Sense 4, then to touchwiz, then to Sense 5 REALLY shows the progression the company has made in it's UI. Be interesting to see where they go from here...
[One (M7) General] ericshmerick:
Never said stock was old...just boring and bare bones. I know that's the point but I prefer Sense.
[One (M7) General] George_Mn:
Well I'm definitivly going to use AOSP and the only thing I'll miss until it gets fixed is the IR blaster.

I don't like the Sense lockscreen, launcher, blinkfeed, status bar and most of all, those ugly sense icons.

Currently using Trickdroid with aosp lockscreen, apex, aosp themed statusbar and holo icons.

Still, the notification drawer and the quick toggles don't quite match what I want.

I'll wait for PA or maybe PAC to be compatible to the new firmware.

Halo is such a cool feature..
[One (M7) General] Drzfr3shboialex:
I've always loved sense, even when I was on my nexus I missed it. Sense is hands down the best OEM skin, it adds so much more to android. Kudos to HTC for making something already great, better.
[One (M7) General] WhatsAUsername:
+1!!

I'd love to use the Google Play edition, but I *need* the IR blaster to work. It's a core feature of the phone, and I enjoy using it instead of individual remotes. Also, in addition to what you've said about Sense, I REALLY HATE the menu bar! There are tons of useless icons (why do I need to know that Beats audio is on all the time? Why does Power Saver mode have to have an icon?), and to add insult to injury, the icons are just WAY too big! Why does the menu bar have to take up so much screen real estate, and why did they make the icons bigger compared to everything else on the market? Open up Skype on an S4 or Nexus 4 and look at the menu bar icon next to the one on the HTC One. It's ridiculous!
[One (M7) General] dlads:
Power is in the hand of the user, I'm getting better out of this phone than i did out of my S3, on average anyway, on heavy use, no the s3 wins, but on light use the HTC wins. The One gives everything it's got to applications that don't need it, which is what needs addressing.
[One (M7) General] shook187:
This thread is so pointless. What we have he is a bunch of people saying some like plain vanilla Android and some like Sense.
[One (M7) General] Quis89:
The key board is too small? That's a new one. What if you get rid of the directional arrows at the bottom?

Battery is incredible on my One with sense. I really couldn't ask for better
[One (M7) General] cuyo11:
aosp compared to the Venom rom I totally agree with you
[One (M7) General] aspot72:
Lesson learned :) That's the reason why is Nexus there. It was a developer brand for developers (but long time available to masses). Other brands or OEMs- (HTC, Samsung with their One/Galaxy) are for masses with lot of added features... That's why, you, spoiled customer find Nexus/GE boring (must confess- I'm the same). :)
[One (M7) General] ldjalal:
Sense 5 is probably the best android based OS, but there are a few features which I prefer on stock. However, if I had the choice I would stick to the standard One instead of going for the GE edition.

If only TW was this good...
[One (M7) General] I Am Marino:
I can only hope AOSP ROMs continue to improve and when their battery life improves and camera quality is close enough to Sense, I'll switch.
[One (M7) General] Barsky:
I couldn't agree with you more. After running CM on and off for years, I am completely bored with the "Stock Android Experience". I don't think I had the GE rom on mine before I decided it degradated the phone.

I haven't even changed the launcher to Nova, as I normally would. It took me completely by surprise that I like Sense 5.
[One (M7) General] yeyoeddy:
I think it depends on the user some people like sense some aosp some aokp. It depends on what features you need and what features you can live without.
[One (M7) General] teiva:
Sense is part of the reason I chose the One over the S4. HTC just seems to have found the right balance. The S4 was just way too complicated and bloated for my liking.

I look forward to receiving the 4.2.2 update from Optus when they decide to release it :)
[One (M7) General] Shan89:
You're never gonna have sense camera on aosp PERIOD. It's custom camera app which is way to much bundled into system and ofc source code is never gonna be released since then everyone would have sense features.
[One (M7) General] Rdotyung:
One of the biggest things for me when choosing between the One and S4 was Touchwiz vs Sense. After a lot of time with both devices I really just HATE touchwiz. To my surprise however I really came to love Sense 5. It's rough around the edges in some spots, but all in all it's extremely close to being a great Android Skin.

I'm going to miss the camera, and a couple of pieces of the Sense UI. But the GE Rom is giving me a much cleaner, more coherent version of Android with greatly improved battery life. Well see if I really do end up missing Sense, I know that I already miss the Slow Motion Video.
[One (M7) General] jonny68:
I like both, however as most have said I would definitely prefer Sense for sure, very polished indeed
[One (M7) General] Barsky:
I had the Galaxy S and the Galaxy SII. I love samsung phones, but Touchwiz has been, is , and probably always will be horrible. Even if I ran stock rom on those, I always changed the launcher, because of Touchwiz.

Prior to Sense 5, I felt pretty much the same about Sense and like you are completely surprised that I like the sense ui so much now. Tried the GE edition and dumped it within about an hour (why bother...if you really want the GE experience, CM* has always been there and is pretty much the same except with some added options).
[One (M7) General] kayone73:
Sorry not correct, while the CM UI is great, none of the hardware works the way it should. Glitchy audio/camera/call quality /BT function, basically everything that makes it a camera phones is flawed with the AOSP roms, but the GE roms address this completely.

So not the same thing

How to use truefax to send and receive fax? when i want to connect to network, the signal is off. i have already configured my gprs.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] jaysandkays:
I experienced similar.

I think you are referring to when you start the send, you will see the software switch the phone to flight mode. In my cases, it would go to flight mode and then fail for, 'no carrier detected'.

I looked at KSE website and they say it is normal for phone to switch to flight mode since that is what the software is supposed to do.

However, they list some reasons for the 'no carrier detected' failure.

One of those reasons could be that your carrier (cel provider) has not enabled fax data transmission on your account.

I have a Jam and I would like to get my TrueFax working to send outbound faxes. I don't need to receive.

Let me know if you get yours working.
[Nook Touch General] jumpingclear:
I rooted my nook with nookmanager but without the Amazon market as I only wanted a couple of packages. I installed kindle and aldiko by copying the apks onto the sd card and then installed them. As far as I can remember I just long pressed them in relaunch and an option popped up to install and I clicked 'yes'. Both installed and ran with no problem.

I decided I wanted to try a different kindle package. I copied it onto the sd card as before. I then uninstalled the previous one by long pressing it in the relaunch app list and selecting uninstall. However, now when I long press the new kindle apk I get a long list of option, eg rename, move, copy, properties etc but no install option.

I haven't changed much since I rooted and installed the other packages and can't think of anything I have done that would disable the ability to install as before although I suspect it is probably something simple.

Has anyone any ideas what could have changed and how I can fix it so that I can install an apk again?

thanks

Just tap, don't long press.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Saauron:
Found that my micro USB port had stopped working. Was trying to, as best as possible without ODIN, return the phone to stock before I went to Verizon. As you can guess, in this process I re-locked the bootloader. Now, before realizing this mistake, the phone rebooted -- to the system software unauthorized screen we all know and love.

USB is completely shot, so ODIN doesn't seem to be an option. Power isn't an issue, because I have an external battery charger. But beyond that, I'm pretty sure that I'm out of options.

My question: is there any way to unlock the bootloader without ODIN or to restore a completely stock build from an SD card? I don't believe so, but I couldn't find anyone else with this scenario on the forum.

I'm about to try now :cool: also, does this mean that AOSP ROMs will be basically 100% stable?

[HD2 General] gilbert32:
Hello HD2 users. i need some help from your possible experience (this might be a bit long to read, sorry)

I got a disassembled HD2 from a friend, which didn't have lcd/digitizer. I took it to a shop in my country which is an expert with htc phones (called htc solutions :P). they said they will test the mainboard. if it works, they would put a digitizer and an lcd.

after a week i called back and they said the mainboard wasn't working so i took it back (still disassembled, no lcd/digitizer).

i got bored while studying for exams, so i tried assembling some stuff and testing it. apparently i connected the bottom buttons, the volume buttons, in-call mic and vibrator. i can tell that because i put a battery on the pins, plugged a usb in and it vibrated!

so i tried again... worked again.

then i hold down volume buttons, connected to usb and it was recognized. i even flashed ruu while holding battery with my hands.

then it rebooted, after some time while still connected to usb, orange led went on. after some time too, green one did (it's my other hd2 battery which was charged completely). device was recognized by pc again. i ran windows mobile device center, it showed hd2, asked to register etc...

i decided to try a custom rom, and flash worked and same thing happened.

now, in order to get activesync/wmdc to connect, the phone must completely boot right?

i asked them on their fb page, they said that it didn't work with them, and the expert said it stucked on htc screen.

and since it booted with me and connected to wmdc, then it booted right?

i couldn't test sound because i must put the back cover right? and i'm not expert, even connected the stuff inside the phone without watching tutorials/asking.

they said they can add the digitizer and lcd on my responsibility, (90$) so should i go for it?

also, does android boot if not all hardware is present? i tried to execute clrcad and haret in both roms (ruu and crossbowHD2 wm6.1), but never got adb to connect. i wanted to test clk and fastboot for android, but didn't have time
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Yes Windows would need be booted but perhaps the stuck HTC screen was far enough for WMDC to recognise the device.

If it did indeed reflashed fully things sound promising.

Have you tried installing MyMobiler on your PC as allows you to view HD2 screen image on notebook, needs push file to device but can't remember if any interaction is needed on HD2 but worth a try.

Can you see your device in Windows explorer & view content of phone storage ?

Personally I would be inclined to buy a pre assembled lcd/digi combo (around 30USD)or lcd & digi separately if want save a little more & test it myself & rebuild it after reading some tutorials as will save yourself some dosh ($) if things are not 100% & should be able to resell parts to recoup outlay.
[HD2 General] gilbert32:
Thanks for your reply.

today before going to exams i downloaded and installed my mobiler and booted it. after connecting usb, (still on wm6,1 due to that ruu has install restriction policies for security, and wants me to confirm installation and launch of exe's afaik) my mobiler started installing on the phone automatically. and it showed the screen!

i saw that there was no sim card (cuz there was not) and pressed cancel in winmo, i got to home screen. so it works right? there's no way that pc could control the hd2 and get to homescreen if the screen is stuck on htc logo.

edit: i forgot, yes, i could browse nand or sdcard if connected from windows explorer. it seems very normal

oh, and i'm not gonna try to flash HSPL :D it's already flashed cz custom rom worked, and not safe at all since i have to keep holding battery with my hands for it to stay on :D)
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Sounds good so far. Due to fact your HTC specialists don't appear to be too special I would recommend commencing with repair yourself.

Rebuilding the device with a pre built lcd/digi assembly is very easy & almost foolproof if you use this forum & research tutorials & do the job right & with a lot of care.

You will save a serious amount of cash & have the knowledge & feeling of achievement of doing the repair work yourself.
