One of our members, udK, posted this video of him running HTC's Sense UI on Froyo. He is running the test build, and so far it looks great!

IT IS OUT! For desire only right now, but the devs are about to start porting, currently confirmed 2 Devs are porting.

UPDATE: Desire ROM 2.2 is fully working I assume, as the devs working on it say it might be out by tonight. Hopefully the Nexus will get a full port by tomorrow... No promises from either parties though.

Another update: Not coming until tomorrow evening.

Things HTC added:


  • 720p Recording
  • Torch
  • Application Sharing App
  • Plurk
  • Hotspot
  • Apps2SD
  • More Widgets
  • Seems smoother than before. It gets 39MFLOPS
  • and More


Any chance for a leak so Modaco or King can get it running on our Nexus'?

I think they did a tiny bit, The title bars seem flat now, compared to 2.1's rounded look. Looks sleeker.

Still wouldn't mind it, it gets 39MFLOPS, meaning JIT is there!

Well if the Desire can do 720p recording without any hacks, I suspect the Google folks will have to get on and sort out the N1's camera, else they're giving the Desire a large advantage over the N1.

What I really like and is essential is the better quality apps for Exchange support, Email/Calendar etc..are so much better from the Desire Rom, the features/options are much richer than the stock Rom. Simple things like move an item from you inbox to a subfolder in exchange doesn't exist on the stock Android.

It's the only reason I run Desire Rom on the N1 personally.

If it weren't for the Desire Rom, I likely would have sold the N1 shortly after purchase and went back to the iPhone. Sad I know. Still can't play GSM wav files from my Avaya modular messaging server though the Android without the RemoveWave app...Froyo didn't fix that either.

That stuff is 101 WinMo, iPhone, Blackberry device support...Android/Google can't seem to get one simple thing working like this in their Rom.

I got to play with an Incredible today. I liked Sense UI. It was slick. Quite a bit of work went into it and it felt smooth and polished. Quite nice. My N1 is better now that I have ADW.launcher, but I'd love to try out Sense UI on here for a while.

Hopefully CM6 will have a nice interface and all, I think I might finally unlock my N1 to get CM6. Hopefully I can get something like Sense UI on there as well.

CM doesn't change the interface at all but you can apply themes and morphs to it to change the overall look.

I've used sense UI so much but I just can't get into it over vanilla android. It's very existence is in a way making any sense UI phone a closed source device dependent on HTC to update. A whole second layer of someone interfering. Give me standard android!

I hope with the release of Gingerbread, Sense won't be some of the things we Vanilla users sometimes crave.
