I remember there being a thread on here with a modded version of the TouchWiz launcher for Desire which had to be flashed. Then there was talk of it being made into a normal app like Launcher Pro, Helix Launcher etc.
I've tried searching but with no luck.
Help a brotha out?
HELLO
If you see in the nexus one post (themes and apps you have luck ;-)) and if you don't find you donate me your msn and i send you touchwiz.apk works perfectly ;-) good day
Search touchwiz in the android development desire section.

unfortunately you wont be able to use the HTC Sense widgets if you decide to go with a home replacement. of course you can still use the apps, but not the widgets.
if you are looking for nexus replacement. search the market for ADW launcher, launcherpro, or helix launcher. all of them have their own little tweaks and pros/cons. go check them out :]
note: the home replacements wont change anything but the launcher.

Polite bump
I am looking for real themes guys, those that we flash in recovery.
Isnt anyone following the nexus forums over there, they have lot of themes.. really great ones ..
Anyways i will now flash one of those and be a pioneer, if that works out then perfect! Everyone else should also know that by then, so ppl can skin their lovley Desires
Go for it! As soon as you try one and let us know if it works, I'll try another. Between us we can get our desires wrecked, or everyone else's skinned and themed!

I have no idea! I seen there are a few versions but I only tried the one so far, the one for CM.
Have you any idea if the other versions may work? I'm game to try them out!

I'm using Launcher Pro Beta, which is also good, although, I have heard that ADW Launcher provides better battery life span in comparison.
I used adw, but I went back to launcher pro because I love how it allows you to have 5 rows on your home screen aswell as the 4 on the dock.
used both
adw and launcherpro
switched fully to adw now - just seems to run better and great that they have now enabled pinch to zoom too.
either one u go with they are both great
Does anybody know how to uninstall a theme.zip ?
A bit of a tut here to let us know how you guys are getting these themes to work would be cool?
Thanks to all the DEVS on here i appreciate your time and talent, and i would donate to every one of you guys but im not the richest person in the world. I do have a request if it's possible, here goes. I do have a brand new mt4g 3 days old now because of the screen and constant apps crash from my other. Since i downloaded a couple apps from the market and made it much more USER GUI custom rather than roms, because i have found to fail in this department with finding anything that i like (i'm picky, sorry devs, you do make great roms though ).
Attached is my home screen and i was wondering if anyone could make a simple mod (rom) to make the icon boxes transparent? Just show the icons? and remove the clock? I only ask this because I have the clock with beautiful widgets and did download another app for the power widgets. Or is there a simple setting i could mod in terminal? I appreciate it a bunch for anyone that could do this for me thanks a ton and....... (LONG LIVE XDA DEVS AND SUPPORTERS!!!)
I don't know about the clock, but ADW Ex will take care of the icon thing for you.
is that on market or can i get it here?
nvm i found it thanks again!
Launcher Pro as well...
I've been using it since I first got my nexus one and it's fantastic! The developer just added some nice new home screen transitions as well. Very customizable.

You can also download the Androidian theme from the market (free) it will also remove the boxes but alow you to continue using your sense launcher.

U can also download a mt4g theme called androdian. It keeps the htc sense on, but does exactly wat u want, which is remove the boxes around the icons . I use it (even tho I have adw ex over it) and it looks niceee

I've been doing searches in all the Desire Z forums and I couldn't find anything about installing HTC sense and all its goodies on CM7. Is it possible? I just got my Desire Z today so I'm still making attempts at learning the ins and outs of android.
EDIT: doing some extra searching off XDA, it seems that because of HTC's extensive work on the rom itself, it will not work with CM. I guess I'll have to pick and choose... that would lead to me wondering what alternative can I get to get as much flexibility as CM and still have sense....

HTC Sense is closedsource while CyanogenMod is based on ASOP.

What parts of sense were you wanting. There lots of apps you can use that can give you a sense look. If you want sense style widgets download launcher pro plus. You can theme the dock bar to look like the sense dock.
Use beautiful widgets to get the sense clock and weather, including the weather animations when you unlock the phone.
Have a look in the general android themes section for a theme that has just been released for the built in CM7 theme chooser and it will make you notifaction bar look like sense.
Hope this helps

Ok, i'll look into all of that. I finally took the leap from my old touchpro to android, so im starting from scratch and back in square newbie.
The main thing that i wanted was the ability to link contacts to facebook as well a "favorites" that works like HTCs widgets. Im also still looking for a voice command app that does not access the internet so that it will work purely off my contact list. I loved the winmo voice command as to how it structured the responses and im looking for something like that
Launcher pro plus has the ense style widgets,.... and there is an app to run from pc that syncs contacts with facebook. Google "android facebook contact sync", if you dont have any luck finding it, drop me a pm, i'll have a butchers for you tonight or tomorrow when i can.

I'll check it out. Now I just have to find a way to transfer contacts and sms/mms from winmo to android
Heya, did a quick search on market and couldn't find the app to sync contacts with facebook...
I know the general consensus is touchwiz is vomit, and i tried my best to like it but couldnt.
I wish they would make it themes like sense had you could install.
Anyway, as I am only familiar with sense (years ago) and touchwiz, what other skins are out there that you actually like.
I have been following the overseas market lately and I wish we could try some of their skins.
China has been a market focused on value, but I will tell you there are some awesome phones out there we will never see or even hear of that would give these well known flagship phones a run for their money.
Anyway, name your skin of choice
Skin? Or launcher?
I use Nova, have for a long time and I love it.
I use Nova as well...
Have you tried Themer?

+1 on Themer. They have some really nice themes. Keep in mind Themer is a launcher replacement, so if you like Nova or Apex etc when you install Themer it also becomes your new launcher. Nova, Apex and the other well known launchers all have themes that you can install with the launcher. Lots of options.
