HTC Sense UI 3.0 Port for Galaxy S2 Has Begun! [Update : Alpha1]
It has commenced and this time its serious. Project GalaxySense failed on the Samsung Galaxy S and they are now trying to work it out for the Samsung Galaxy S2. Sense 3.0 is the latest (3D UI) for HTC Android devices and surely it would be a pleasure to get it working on the Samsung Galaxy S2 indeed. Cappychimp is also involved directly as a developer in this project. All the best for them and im very anticipated myself to try and to use it.
Quoted directly from XDA :
Hello everyone,
I am starting this thread for the development and discussion on porting htc sense on our galaxy s ii devices. I have had discussions with some of the developers from the galaxy s forums, who have agreed to help on creating a port for our devices. The original galaxy s thread can be found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1044637 since i am going to be the only beta tester right now, anyone who is keen to be a beta tester please pm me and i would reply back to you. This is just a starting point of the port so do not expect any developments for weeks or maybe months.
The thread has been made specially for the development/porting of the htc sense ui on our devices. So please be advised that there should be no posts regarding non development and if you are new here, do not bother to post anything. Source code will be posted soon as promised by kenia1234
Developers currently involved :

Cyanogenmod Owner Joins Samsung Mobile!
It seems like Steve Kondik which is the owner of Cyanogenmod now joins to work with Samsung Mobile. What does this mean btw? We all know that CyanogenMod is one of the greatest custom rom ever developed on Android and is available for multiple devices up till now.. and counting.
Steve Kondik said that his intention initially is to improve android from its base but why under Samsung Mobile? We all know Samsung is an all favor of their touchwiz UI and their not so open sourced policity with source codes which is always incomplete and a nightmare to kernel developers.
Read MoreHTC Virgo : Possible Final Render Surfaced
A dutch retailer perhaps accidentally posted a picture and specs of the next upcoming HTC Virgo (no more family name series ey HTC?). The page was taken down but HTC Inside was able to make a screenshot of it and posted it up.
Recap on specs :
HTC Vigor includes a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, 4.3-inch 1280 x 720 HD display (aint 4.5, 4.3 is an acceptable size i guess for most now), 8 megapixel camera, Android 2.3.4, HTC Sense 3.5 and Beats by Dr. Dre Technology.
It makes me wonder of how quick does HTC makes phone anyway. Samsung is almost to release their Galaxy S2 is the US and HTC seems to be prepared with their fall lineup already. Btw, the design reminded me of DesireZ+DesireHD. Not so sweetly designed but i guess we will just have to wait for its final render to appear.
P/S : Mr. BlurryCam, do your stuffs please…
Read MoreHTC Bliss, spotted in the wild, Naked
HTC Bliss, a female oriented phone is expected to have mid-range specs with an 800MHz Qualcomm single-core processor and will run the latest version of HTC Sense 3.5 UI on top of Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread or is it HTC Sense Zero?. HTC Bliss will be equipped with a 5MP rear facing camera.
The specs might seems like this is sorta a 2010 mid range but the overall perhaps will stand up just nice, just like the other HTC in 2011. Perhaps again this might be the HTC Wildfire but tailored specifically for females.
Read MoreGoogle Acquiring Motorola Mobility : Hello Hardware Biz!
Google is now in the hardware business guys! Google to acquire Motorola Mobility for a deal worth $12.5 billion. This means Google will be releasing their own uber pwning device paired with some TI OMAPS or they might even go for the all famous and stable Qualcomm Snapdragon to ensure high usability of GPS and a super reliable data/signal. Yes, im praising Qualcomm for their chips but indeed its true that they are quite the most stable ive used so far with performance place aside as performance is very subjective and mostly people rely on benchmarks.
Back to the Google talk, “The acquisition of Motorola Mobility, a dedicated Android partner, will enable Google to supercharge the Android ecosystem and will enhance competition in mobile computing. Motorola Mobility will remain a licensee of Android and Android will remain open. Google will run Motorola Mobility as a separate business. ”
Is this a YAY?
