Hi!
Now, that a Froyo port is comming to Desire I would like to use LauncherPro together with Froyo. The only thing I will actually miss from SenseUI is the FriendStream widget.
Does anyone know a good replacement for this widget?
Thanks!
Pure Messenger widget from market
It doesnt scroll down like friendstream unfortunately

You can't. No Sense widgets can go on anything but Sense UI.
However, Google search 'Fancy widget 1.3.0' and download that. It's a great clone of the clock widget.

Thats it !!! thats exactly what im seeing people use with these launchers. Thou I thought it was the OEM clock/weather widget.
Thanks
or search for beautiful widgets, much better than fancy and you can custom it with over hundred skins...
I prefer a system like:
1. LauncherPro
2. Free Power Widget
3. Digital Clock Widget
4. Smooth Calendar
5. Snowstorm weather widget
6. Increasing Ring
7. Visual Task Switcher Free
8. Calendar Snooze
9. 3D Gallery
10. Belo Call Dialer
on market
11. Lockscreen - sense HD on XDA - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791315
Thanks, you posted some cool apps which I needed: Smooth Calendar and the Visual Task Switcher.
I went away from Sense just recently, since it's slow - Especially in the app drawer.
Anyway, do you know a good Mail-Widget? I like the one from HTC but that isn't useable (as any HTC Widget) on LP. (I got Launcher Pro Plus btw)
My only problem with non-sense launchers(LauncherPro and ADW Launcher) is that they both lack a good looking mail widget or a facebook widget(No, don't suggest Pure Messanger, its not even close to HTC's).
I think that LP is a cool launcher, althou its preformance kindda lacking...
Its choopy and laggish when moving between docks, to the point it rly bugs me, other than that, top notch.

What about LauncherPro Plus? It iterally has cloned sense widgets incl. Facebook, twitter, friends (friendstream) messaging, bookmarks and contacts

I am using Launcher pro plus at the moment and it does not have any sort of mail widget. Pure messenger does not cut it

How did you set up the Sense HD Lockscreen?
It's good that we have choice people, no need to down rank aosp android or sense or xyz....
I always return to Sense no matter what rom I try. AOSP, MIUI, Cyanogen....For some reason 'regular' Android just seems 'bland' to me.
And also, Sense isn't slow but I do agree that the app menu is slow in scrolling. Something that plagued Sense since the Hero 1.6 days.
OP: Great set-up, I am sure people will he thankful for your set-up.

for Sense HD Lockscreen
Im think of moving to CM, I'm running Calkulin's Sense Rom no and i can't do with out a Good Calendar that will pull Google Calendar & Exchange. I also need a decent Clock widget as similar to the Sense on as i can get with an alarm clock. Also a decent people widget would be nice. these are the only things holding me back. You CM People here is your challenge to convert yet another.
Pure Calender widget. Pure grid calendar. Also free ones in the market. If you want to incorporate missed calls/mms / exchange email/ twitter/Facebook then use pure messenger. If you need to know more Widgets let me know.
Beautiful Widgets for clock, or gtabsimiclock. Fancy Widgets as well, clokr too and tajm. search for clock widget in the market.
Contacts widget for your contacts.

+1 on Beautiful Widgets. If you pick up the paid version of LauncherPro, you also get a nice calendar and people widget (among others) that are similar to sense.
I just wanted to then you both. I used grit calendar, launched pro for people. Beautiful Widgets for clock and weather for the sense like expierience withfull support of Hotmail, Gmail, and exchange syncing.

Aside from LP+
So I came accustomed to certain widgets from "Sense UI". What is a good widget to replace the contacts widget? I have been using a few different ones, but maybe there is one that I am not seeing...
Also what do you use for:
Calendar
Bookmarks
Friendstream
Any other cool widgets you wanna add...
I like photo contact widget. It looks good and works well. As for the others mentioned I bought LP plus and the widgets that come with it have replaced friend stream, bookmarks and calendar for me. I also use beautiful Widgets for clock, & weather. I also recommended purchasing LP icons and docks
If you are looking for widget outside of LP+ for friendstream and calendar then I recommend pure messenger and pure Cal both are very good.
I've never looked for an alternative For bookmarks so I don't know what out there for it.

I use GO Weather for the weather clock, and the Android built in for Calendar
"colorize widget" - seperate widgets for facebook, twitter, and people.
Better than sense for me.

Calender - LP Widget
Friendstream - Official Facebook & Twitter clients, I don't think any other widget/app is better than the official ones IMO.
Time & Date - Clockr Evolution
Battery - Battstatt pro
Weather - Beautiful Widgets
Streaming Media - Subsonic
there a litrally no widgets in the rooted htc wildfire cm7 ,so is there any widgets that i can use it on my home screen,like calender mail etc
If you are looking at Sense Type Widgets, then you can take a look at Launcher Pro Plus (Paid), which has all the widgets you are looking for.
For the Clock, you can look at Fancy Widgets.
