HTC’s new version of their Sense UI was ported to the Nexus S over on XDA by, swamp goblin. The Rom is Pre-alpha so it’s not exactly 100% stable, for that matter it’s not very usable but still enough to get a taste of Sense 4.0 right now.

This Sense rom was ported from the leaked Endeavour RUU which means this rom was meant for a Tegra 3 quad-core, 720p phone. Obviously, the Nexus S doesn’t have those specs, so it is going to take some tweaking.

-= WORKING =-
-It boots
-Some htc apps
-Not much, hence the name PRE-ALPHA

-= MAIN PRIORITIES =-
-Radio ( may work for you gsm users, not sure )
-sound
-Stop random reboots and launcher problems

Go check out this rom if you have a Nexus S, and see if you like Sense 4.0

Via XDA


I started out as a Blackberry user and once that phone was stolen I went to Radio Shack looking at the HD2. Blackberry wasn't cutting it and admittedly I didn't know much about technology, or Android at that point so I looked at the phone with the biggest screen. I'm a media guy and I like to have it mobile. At that point the HD2 had a massive screen and that's exactly what I wanted. Immediately when I got there the manager talked me out of getting a windows device and talked me into Android. I didn't know much about CPUs, Android versions, or what a good spec sheet even looked like. I settled with the Samsung Sidekick and immediately began to hate Android. Probably from the ugly skin and the terrible specs that device had. I started looking how to make the device better and found XDA. That's when it all changed. I started learning about rooting, and flashing. From there I would go on to come across Android websites. How I found Land of Droid was through Twitter. I used #android once and John mentioned me asking if I would like to write for an Android blog. I was hesitant at first but I began to immediately love it. I am now a huge technology fan in all aspects not just mobile. Now when looking for a device I will now know that there are more to specs than a screen size.
