Works ? Live Wallpaper ?
confirmed - works - BUT, no livewallpaper and the old 'drawer' launcher. looks more 1.6 to me than 2.1....
Do your battery last longer ?
Otherwise I don't see the point...
TY for testing that.
I couldnt disable it. As soon as I "force close", HTC Sense automatically starts again.

You most likely forgot to push the Clear Defaults button first.
Clear Defaults - Force stop - Home key, and voilá.

Yes, that was the problem. Thank you.
It is much better with HTC Sense, the only thing I liked is "animation" when opening and closing programs. It looks something like zooming in when opening, and zooming out when closing apps. Actually, it is not "only", because I liked it pretty much. Is there any way I can enable that with HTC Sense?
Install " AdvancedLauncher " from the Blapk Market, and when you press home button, and select " Acceuil " ( for french user ) com.android.laucher.
have fun =)
Edit : the live paper dosnt work for me
AdvancedLauncher doesnt work for me. Force close every time I try to launch it, after that I have to restart my phone.
When you press home button, you have 3 slot, com.android.laucher, com.irrenhaus.advancedlaucher.donut and HTC sense
press com.android.laucher and not com.irrenhaus.advancedlaucher.donut
When I press Home, I have other 3 options:
-AdvancedLauncher
-Home
-HTC Sense
I chose first one, and then phone crashed.
Try to select home ..
Tried that... I get only UI without HTC Sense.
I don't understend, you want remove completly HTC SENSE ?
No, I want HTC Sense with animation (when opening and closing programs), which looks something like zooming in when opening, and zooming out when closing apps. These animation can be seen when HTC is disabled.
Setting/sound and screen/ Animation ?
( sorry I have HTC legend in french : Paramètres /Sons et affichage/Animation )
I did that first, but there are still no animations like when I disable HTC Sense.
So you want disable HTC Sence and enable just the animation ?
Hi... I´m very interested in this phone and also want to know wether we can have a nexus one 3d launcher.... without sense...
I´ve found a 3d launcher for a hero. He says that it only works on a eclair 2.1 system and legend has got 2.1. So it should work on it...

and her a video of it

i have liberated my htc shift...
i started ie and switched to full-screen mode. now i'm not able to switch back since i do not see the menu option anymore.
how can i change ie to start in normal-screen mode again? maybe changing the registry?
many thanks.
It is the standard WinMo touch and hold stylus to screen, and the pop-up menu will appear then uncheck the Full Screen option!
omg, i'm so stupid...! i tried everything but didn't think the easiest way...
works perfect - thanks mate...
No problemo partner. We all have our brain freeze moments...
Do you want an additional 'THREE' customizable homescreens on your Hero? Well, there's an 'app' for that! HA!
First, I'm not sure if doing this has any bugs or inherent problems, and I am not responsible for any problems you may encounter doing this! BUT, I haven't experienced any so far myself.
Anyway, I stumbled onto this by using the Home Switcher app. When I saw how it launched the original Android Home app, that gave me an IDEA.
Using an application called 'Bar Control', I setup a Taskbar ICON to launch the native Android 'Home' application which, if you ask me, 'extends' the Hero with an additional three homescreens. I simply pull down the Taskbar and tap Home to launch the original Android Home app which gives me access to three more homescreens. AND, a simple tap of the Home button takes me back to HTC Sense.
So, I now have TEN (10) homescreens!!!!! These additional native Android homescreens are where I put some Android widgets (non HTC Sense widgets of course). And get this, the two Sprint widgets, NFL Mobile Live and Sprint TV, are available too! The Hero uses the same Wallpaper for both HTC Sense and Home, but it unlocks the native Android wallpaper gallery too.
Steps I did:
1. Downloaded Bar Control from the Market.
2. Launched Bar Control and waited for it to scan all the programs.
3. Scrolled down to the app called, 'Home' and selected it.
4. Selected an ICON of choice. (I used the same home ICON)
5. Pulled down my Notification Bar, tapped 'Home, and WALLA!
Simply hit the Home button to return to HTC Sense.
Note: To get rid of this Home ICON in the Notification Bar, simply perform the first three steps above again which will remove it.
OK, now can anyone tell me of a simple shortcut app that can be set to launch the native Android Home app without having to go through the Taskbar via the Bar Control app in my example above?
So, I believe this is the GREATEST HERO HACK so far!
When two unused screens just aren't enough lol, nice find.
Not really an hack if you ask me... why don't you install a few extra homescreen replacement apps (like openhome) so you'll even have more homescreens
this is not a hack at all. installing apps and using them as intended is as far away from a hack as could be. please change the title, this is so lame...
btw, i would love to have my homescreens scrolling "round", meaning if i swipe screen #7 (the most right one) to the left i want to go to screen #1 (the most left one). anybody know if this is possible?

I would like to know this as well, I sort of wonder why htc didn't design it like that.

lol, the same happens when you install any theme app such as open home, dxtop, etc...
What happens is, the default for the home button is cleared of it's default (HTC Sense) giving you the option which home screen you want to fire up after holding down the home button.
You could probably just clear the default yourself in App settings, limiting the need for another app all together.
Downloading a home screen app equals hacking your phone?
give him a Break it was his first post.He was over zealous on his find..LOL
well atleast he let us know about his find.sum peeps probably wouldnt had even shared..thx DaWeav
Yup, just to elaborate on what N0J mentioned:
menu/settings/applications/manage applications/HTC Sense
tap "Clear defaults"
Now, every time you push your "Home" button you will be presented with the options "Home" and "HTC Sense." As long as you don't check the default box you will always have a two-touch access to either interface.
Alternatively, for those that prefer vanilla Android to Sense, check the default box and hit "Home." Your phone will no longer load the Sense UI. This can be reversed by going to Home in manage applications (above) and again clearing defaults.

Well said and thanks for the detailing the steps out for me!
Dang. I thought this was actually going to be some useful information that could lead me to getting rid of the 4 unused homescreens
This isn't a hack and not much of a discovery but if it makes you happy...
Would be kind of cool if Sense had 10 screens of its own.
nice find! But yes, 7 home screens is a little much. until we find some better widgets.

GDE Home Screen does this
edit: by the way this is a dumb "hack"
I'm assuming this works for vanilla android as well? One of the most annoying things about my Moment that my Hero does is only having 3 screens.
Does anyone know how to REMOVE any of the homescreens from sense?
My hero is so slow!
I really hope that as part of an update to Sense that they make it so you can have any number of screens so long as it's 2X+1. (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11)
Personally, I only really use 5, so I would just drop the last 2 screens and have the little indicator get a tiny bit larger.
Has anyone found a fix for this yet? Only issue I've found thus far with the ROM. Otherwise, it's great!
Doesnt do that for me...
It does for me on the newest Fresh ROM. Doesn't really bother me being that I rarely unlock the screen that way. If I had someway to disable that method of unlocking alltogether, that would be better IMO.

I think it is a result of using the HTC Lockscreen rather than the stock Android one.
This happens on the Fresh 2.0d and DC2.05
It is driving me NUTS!
Any idea how to fix this?
Installing Espresso or DROID launcher from this thread will fix it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657728
have you tried pressing menu once?
I'm almost positive that this has always been a feature of the HTC lock screen even in 1.5
If you don't fully slide the lock screen a message will appear stating either fully slide down the screen or press menu

That's hardly a "fix". That's like saying you can fix the low tire on your Porsche by buying a Yugo....
I would pay cash money for a ROM that got rid of the double menu press to unlock.

I would say the issue is hardly a "bug".
But, if you want it fixed, I've given you an option. I don't know if I'd compare installing the espresso launchbar or DROID launchbar to downgrading from a Porsche to a Yugo.... but, if you were really interested in fixing the issue without using espresso or DROID, you could install one of those launchers and then reinstall the stock launcher and see if the problem stays away.
Or, you could wait until someone else figures it out for you....
All I know is that I am running DamageControl v2.05 and no longer have the menu pop-up issue.
Droid launcher does resolve that issue. I have come to like the style of it for now until the next version of this rom comes out. This is an issue with flipz rom as well. The Droid launcher works good on each rom.
Just to everyone is clear, the problem is new with the recent roms DC and Fresh.
Pressing menu once brings up the lockscreen, pressing menu again unlocks the screen AND brings up the white menu popoup. It should only unlock the screen and not open the menu.
I have installed the black droid launcher onto fresh and I no longer have the problem.
yea i have teh same problem, and its annoying as hell as thats usually the way im used to unlocking my phone, and what they mean is, click home once to wake up phone, click again to unlock and it also brings up the home menu, it never did it on any other rom. its annoying

Just to be clearer. This was a built-in function from 1.5, its on page 10 of the Sprint manual. HTC considers this to be a feature, not a bug.

Incorrect. On stock 1.5, from the lock screen, you could press menu to unlock instead of swipe. Now, if you press menu from the lock screen, it will unlock AND pull up the menu.
Regardless of whether this is a feature or a bug, it was not like this in stock 1.5.
Does anyone have a home .apk with 3 screens like the default that works with damage .7? i did search any help is appreciated...
Well, there's Launcher+ in the market that looks exactly like the stock android launcher and has some nice functionality. IF you want the real stock launcher you can always pull it out of a 2.1 rom that has it and push it to your phone

You can also deodex it from the emulator.
Thank you i'm searching roms as we speak
you should have it on your phone. of you are trying to use it...go to manage applications and clear the default for HTC sense
If you go to Settings-->Applications-->Manage Applications and scroll down to HTC Sense, you can click on it and hit "clear defaults". The next time you press the home button, you can choose Sense or the stock Android homescreen with 3 screens.

i know that may be all of you know that , but i discovered it and i wanted to share , open timescapes , press the settings buttom , then choose set as home , and you will get timescapes as the main ui in x10 instead of normal android ui and get an acess to all applications throug timescapes ,exactly like htc sense . good luck

Just tried this on mine and to be honest it does look pretty cool. Gonna stick with it for a couple of days. Well spotted Hoss.
If you use timescape as the main UI you can also move the icons in your app tray about, therefore not in alphabetical order.
The four icons along the bottom of the home screen can be changed too. You need to open the app tray up, then long press one of them to drag back into the list of apps. Then you can change the four to the four apps you use the most
I have tried that on day 1 of purchase but it lags soo much
Although it looks very fancy the scrolling of the app draw is not very smooth at all.
In addition if you press home whilst being on the screen it seems to relaunch the app all over again.
It's not ideal.
all of you are right it is very buggy and laggy as it is an eary beta like all things on x10 buggy and lagy
timespace as home menu...the app menu gets laggy.
