[Q] Desire Z 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0 update??

TRFFTR · Jan 20, 2012

I had gotten so bored from waiting HTC 's unknown update and rooted my Desire Z a month ago, tried some Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs, and can easily say that Sense 3.0 is not worth waiting. Because it lags so much (that is normal because it even lags on Sensation), seems un-optimized and includes lots of bugs. But Sense 3.5... It is seriously amazing! Faster, fully-optimized, includes more features...

But I am %99 sure that HTC won't give a Sense 3.5 update, just because they are giving Desire Z an update later than others doesn't mean they are working for something special, Desire Z has landscape mode, that is why it gets updated later, remember the Gingerbread update. So we should only expect a full Sense 3.0 with Android 2.3.5, or just a new lockscreen with Android 2.3.5 update, expecting anything else will only cause disappointments. And I am writing this post to suggest anyone who doesn't happy with Sense 2.1 to root his or her phone, waiting is just gives pain

sense 3.5 is working so smooth on the htc explorer, no lags and not a ram hunger with a CPU of 600 MHz
but what i don't know is "does sense 3.5 have a landscape mode?" cause I didn't see one in the cooked roms, so maybe this is the cause of the late release ?!

It's not about Sense version, it's just about from what phone the ROM has been "cooked". If it's a port from any phone without keyboard, it does not need to have landscape homescreen. E.g. you can have Sense 3.0 with landscape (port from HTC Flyer).

Hi to everyone,

I have "4" DZ in my home, 2 are rooted and 2 not (wife, daughters and me). The last unpate is Android 2.3.3 Sense 2.1 from 13 June 2011.
No more update at today.
HTC update if have a business retourn. Is this a product that still worth the time and resources to develop?

But, if you want use this phone really, you can think to root it. At your own risk of course.
Have the power to run a great Sense, without too much resources waste.

I tried many versions available on XDA - Developers, and I can assure you that Sense 3.0 and also 3.5, works great with swap, a micro SD Class 10 and the CPU at max 1075 min 384

When I make extensive use of data network, does not go much beyond the day and, the day that I did the installation via wi-fi throughout the duration was 12 hours, but with wifi always on and screen also.
If I use the phone without stress it, go ahead 36, 48 hours.

Now I use it with:
Gmail
Skype (also works on 3g or wifi - but this, drain the battery)
Waze and Maps
various applications for the office, some on cloud, and others to management the phone.
I am able to contact HTC with my account and phone are recognized in HTC Sync on windows.

At the moment I'm using this:
RCMix 4.0 Energized BLUE Edition, and also VirtuousUnity.

I mounted on the phone, considering the swap, to remove call wi-fi - does not work here - and to freeze some apps like facebook or twitter, ever in start up.

These two - but also MIUI or Cyanogen if you do not care Sense - get excellent performance and battery life of use.

Root ... or wait!

This is my experience.
Bud.

Hahahaaa...

funny!!
Hooommmmm...

Actually I bought them used in a stock sale. I saved by taking 4 and none had to say because I got a phone like this! Payd 4 per one...
I just changed the battery cover. You know man, I have 3 ladyes.

swap: I see the difference. Infact phone is more performat, brilliant. I try with and without. The difference is obvious when you open several heavy programs simultaneously, such as Skype and satellite navigation. The phone does not slow as when the swap is not active.

Still nothing. I sent them an email some days ago, and the answer was "we don't have any information".

ICS

I see the news about the new lineup coming out this week(end) at the MWC, Barcelona.
The One Series. One X, S and V.

HTC One V will be 1Ghz CPU, 512 RAM etc. and Ice Cream Sandwich.

I think HTC should make a nonSense ICS for older devices or at least have the possibility for us to choose to try it. Bootloaders can be unlocked, so why bother.

I know Sense IS the thing, we all - well most of us - have an HTC because Sense UI is sooooo cool.

I don't really care about Sense 3.0 - 3.5.

I was very happy with stock ICS. I have tried the custom ROMs, - THANKS DEVS - and I like the features of ICS.

If you see the specs of the One V. 1ghz processor single core and 512mb of RAM. I ques Sense 4.0 wouldn't be that bad and memory hungry.

Yes maybe dev. Will make a rom with sense 4.0 and ics XD
If it works on 512 mb of ram, why won't be possible to use it on dz?

I have no doubt that a dev will make a rom with sense 4.0. The question that remains is when it hits the forum

I found a post on the Turkish HTC fb page, written on tuesday 02/28, of a guy who says he called the customer service. they told him that the update is coming in a few weeks, which is consistent with the march/april timeline

tiementuinstra · Mar 15, 2012

Ik heb net contact gehad met de support van HTC Nederland, zij zijden dat er nog niets bekend is bij de helpdesk.

Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
U bent nu in verbinding met Susan.
Susan: Beste Tiemen, bedankt voor uw contact met de klantenondersteuning van HTC. Momenteel ben ik even uw vraag aan het nalezen.
Susan: Ik kan u op dit moment helaas niet vertellen of en zo ja, wanneer er een update wordt uitgebracht voor Desire Z.
Susan: De meest recente versie is op dit moment Android 2.3.3 met Sense 2.1
Tiemen Tuinstra: dat is mij bekend, het zou mij gaan om android 2.3.5 met sense 3.0 oid
Susan: Wij hebben tot op heden geen bevestiging ontvangen dat deze versie wordt uitgebracht voor Desire Z.
Tiemen Tuinstra: ok iig bedankt
