The forthcoming awesome HTC Sense UI from HTC Hero has been hacked to run on the older Android powered phones like HTC Dream (aka Android G1). The Italian Android HD Blog has got complete instructions on how to get Sense UI up and running on G1. The complete translated version of the instructions are as follows:

Now begins the process of installing the Rom, the wait is complete.
Highly recommended:
- The Roma is very heavy occupies almost the entire internal memory, leaving about twenty megabytes free, then we suggest you make this change in order to install applications in microSD:
- With a suitable program in order (we have used G-Parted) create a partition in ext2 MicroSD 512Mb.
- Enter Micro-Sd handheld.
- Among the programs in the Rom you will find the application AppToSD run it and click on "Add Apps to SD."
- Here, in this way have recovered memory space on your handheld.
We have performed these steps and we have not had any problem, obviously we do not assume any liability for any damage or problems that may occur.
