I was messing with my phone and some how its running the standard UI and not Sense UI which I want to run. I have searched and looked everywhere to put it back to the Sense UI. Can someone point me in the right direction to fix it.
Thanks

you have to go into app management go to home and clear defaults then hit home and it should give you the option of home or htc sence choose htc sence
Go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications, Look for an app called "Home", selected and scroll down, you should see a button that says clear defaults, press it. Then just press your home key and it will pop open a box for you to select home or htc sense, select the check box and then select HTC sense.

Perfect thanks. The clear defaults was greyed out. But I pushed the clear data button and then hit the home button and it asked me to use Sense.
Thanks a bunch.

There's an app in the Market that's called Home Switcher. Install that and you'll be able to pick your home launcher of choice.
settings/ applications/ manage applications/ [select the home replacement app] and then select "clear defaults"...
next time you press home you'll get the options presented to you again..
Or another quick way is to go to timescape then go to settings then check set as home button. Then uncheck it
Then press the home button and you will see the Home Options Window.
Thanks Guys
How do you change the default home screen? Like when I press the home button it will use that instead? Cause im trying out the ADW Launcher but its not in the applications lists so I cant open it.
When using a program try holding the home button, this should pop up with a menu that says "complete action with" and show Home or ADW. Or something like that, I know Ive seen that menu before.
Yea, it used to show the menu. But then I set the Home as default action so if I press home it will bring me to the home i dont want and if I hold it, it shows a box with recently opened apps

Holding the home button is the action for bringing the recent app list. *FAIL*

Go into application settings and clear the defaults for Home.
Settings-> Applications-> Manage Applications
Scroll down do the Home application (cant remember if its called home or what, deleted my Launcher.apk ages ago after getting root). Once you have cleared the defaults. A press on the home button will show you options to select your home screen, this will include ADW, Home and TimeScape, select ADW and check "Set as default".
I cant seem to find a way of closing a window when it's open except using the back key, if ive got more than 1 window open i can X out if but it doesn't give am option to X out of the main window and i need to press back and when i reopen the browser the same page comes up,any suggestions?
for cyanogen based builds, press menu button and windows, close all of them, it will return to your google home page.
for sense based builds, press menu button and more, then home. it will go back to home page.
That is my suggestion. (It is at least what I do)

just step by and saw your answer, thanks for the tip
I really like the really simple menu and app drawer that the stock 1.2 has, but it only shows the built in apps or ones downloaded from the BN app store.
Is there any way to force all the other apps I have installed to show up? I would prefer to have the default "Home" launcher instead of Zeam, etc.
Any ideas?
It looks like B&N has the list of applications it installs through the Shop app. So until someone finds that database and how to manually add apps you will need to install a third part launcher. You can search the market for a home switcher application in the meantime if you like the stock launcher
Yeah, I have a home switcher installed already.
I really hope someone finds a way to override that list of apps that show up soon.

A workaround was brought up in the Manual Rooter thread about this. Basically, the workaround (and I'm running it right now) is to push the old BN 1.1's applauncher.apk to your system/app (should probably back it up first) and when you press the "Extras" button choose "applauncher"... everything will show up. The upside is now you can use default "Home" button but the downside is that the "Extras" tab doesn't populate new apps you install until a reboot.
Here's the applauncher.apk from 1.1 that I'm using.
Go to "Apps"
Tap on the "Archived" button
While holding the volume up hardkey, tap on the image of the speaker that appears.
This brings up the 1.1 "Extras"

Very nice! It worked for me. I tried volume down as well but volume up was the only one that did.
My menu key was deleted from my home screen (not by me) & I don’t know how to get it back! Can anyone tell me how to get it back? PLEASE
Menu key? I'm not sure I'm following you.

Do you mean the icon on the center that opens up the app drawer? I suppose you're using a custom launcher?
Long-press any part of the empty screen, click Shortcut, and find an item that says launcher (or something equivalent), like how you would add a shortcut of an app on homescreen.
Then click that icon, and drag it to where menu key originally was.
hehehe thats not called the menu key its called app drawer (or app button even, the menu key is the four line button beside your back button). I'm going to assume you are on cm7 with adw because as far as i know that is the most used.... and i may have done it once or twice before. Press and hold on an empty space on your home screen. click Launcher actions. choose open close app drawer. enjoy don't feel too stupid it happens to the best of us.
Yes I did mean the app drawer...sorry. I got it back now...thanks for all the help!!!
