Is that a horizontal Sense I see?
yes, it's the old htc sense, but it definitely is landscape.
The mt3g had horizontal sense too, I don't understand why they don't implement that in all the sense phones. I hate having to switch from landscape to portrait when switching between apps.

Hi,honestly, I'm a HTC sense lover, however due to the animation of sense, i switched to Launcher pro...and HTC sense just feels like WINMO most of the time...Is it possible to make HTC sense got the fly-in effect when quitting or enter an application?

erm...Do you use Launcher pro or iphone before?it's the effect of the screen fade in/out animation when we enter or quit an application...i think it's pretty cool,if we can put this feature into HTC sense...
You cant get it without having another launcher.

Hi,just tried spare part from the market...but it doesn't work on my froyostone build.Anyway, thanks a lot, get to know one new app...switched back to launcher pro...
Try ADW.Launcher, it has the fly in effect when opening and closing the app drawer. It is also much more flexible on the desktop grid layout.
just out of curiosity to see if there's others like me. I cant live without the HTC Keyboard and Dialer.
Count me in.
I did but now I use bangster with the HTC_ime keyboard

My dream is CyanogenMod ROM with HTC Sense. I like HTC dialer, contacts and HTC Launcher. But now I'm trying Launcher Pro with Beautiful Widgets and Pure Grid Calendar and it's look also very good. Instead of HTC keyboard I'm using Swype now.
I also like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733682
But it doesn't work for me, for now.
I am currently developing a build at the minute. If anybody knows were I can download a sense rom I can disable sense and just have the features you request. Currently I only have the nexus one builds which I dont particulary like!

Don't forget a feature ONLY CyanogenMod has so far... a real working Audio DPS with graphic equalizer. Something Android badly misses compared to WinMO.
me too!!
I would be! but im not lol
Sense on winmo is amazing, but I dont see the big fuss about it on android. I do like the keyboard though

There is a Froyo rom for the MyTouch Slide, but it doesn't have the Sense UI, and even though I always use LauncherPro as default and not the Sense Launcher, it feels weird not having Sense UI, so I switched to SlideMEROOT5.
Even though you can use other launcher instead of the Sense Launcher.
The Sense Dialer, Music Player, onscreen-Keyboard, and the Sense Task Bar!!! Are part of the best of the Sense UI !!!

I had to go back to a Sense rom for the dialer. Cannot believe stock Froyo dialer doesn't search contacts as you dial. And the Sense mail app is better too, can actually move mail to folders. Other than that I use Launcher Pro and its widgets.

I like Sense without the Sense Launcher too All the little stuff that HTC brings like the keyboard, fm radio, the camera app is better too. I like Launcher pro with all the shortcut dock.
Like others, I like the "other" features of sense but not the launcher. I especially like that the Facebook link actually works on the sense builds. I use Zeam launcher, because I love the Quick Launch bar and the swipe functions. I am currently using mccm's new sense version and getting ready to try Sergio's new entry.
I really want the Froyo to have Sense already!!!

Hi!
One other feature, in addition to the keyboard and dialer that I cant live without is the link feature in sense contacts. I find that feature extremely useful, the way you can link Facbeook, Google, exchange and phone contacts is unique to sense. I could perfectly well live without the launcher and the sense widgets though.
So i've been watching videos of both stock android (Nexus one, G2) and videos of the Desire HD rom with Sense on other devices. Something that's become quite apparent in the sense rom is that HTC decided to strip a lot of the nice animations that make stock android pleasing to the eye.
Examples include, when you open and app you get a zoom in effect, and when u close it u get a zoom out. Also when the keyboard pops up it sort of slides from the bottom. Another is when you open the app tray, the icons fly in.
But on sense there's no animations. Everything just appears instantly. That really is sort of putting me off Sense, and that's a big disappointment considering i like the look of HTC's widgets.
Has anybody else noticed this? What do you think of it?
Agree to disagree...
...
Must say, you are right, but aren't the guys from Cyanogen Mod going to do something about that?!
CyanogenModders only work with stock Android, so whatever magic dust they decide to sprinkle on the DHD, it will not have Sense in the mix
Next week is looming large... Im gonna take a day off work to show my new baby some love when it arrives)))
I had a nexus and the zoom's are really nothing to write home about

Im sorry to say but you are wrong. If you go to the display settings and under animations set it to 'All' you will get keyboard sliding animations, screen transition animations, the only thing you dont get is a 3D effect with the app draw, but it does slid nicely into view from the bottom and is just more professional. However as mentioned previously its android, customise! Add all the animations you want!!

could u tell me what all the options are? thanks
The Desire HD Sense has a fade in/out effect by default for both Sense tabs and applications unlike older Sense versions ... its actually very pleasing and runs smoothly on HD2 so definitely will be awesome on the actual HD
Animations are nice eyecandy, but everytime they play you have to wait till they are finished. After some time they'll only anoy me. I am happy with as few animations as possible, so I turned them off. Just my humble opinion.

Why is our sense ui so outdated like the mytouch4g scene is way better than our does htc have any intention of pushing it to us or is a port the only way were gonna get it ? On top of that my mother quad scores blow the hell outta mines wen im overclocked
The "Sense UI" on the MyTouch phones is an entirely different animal than our Sense UI. We won't get that UI, but the newer Sense with HTCSense.com integration should be coming soon. I don't think its supposed to do a whole lot in the way of looks, but some great features should come with it. MyTouch phones have a special genius button which we lack and that there has some to do with the interface. Basically, its Sense UI but with a bunch of mods done by T-mobile and others.
I just want Sense HD. It's much more polished.

You are correct, that is not sense ui on the my touch4g, and trust me, it sucks
I would like to openly discuss the possibility of a Landscape Sense Rom.
When I am at work, or in my car, I always have the phone sideways either using the kickstand or in a pocket in my dash. This layout just seems more natural to me as the keyboard is bigger in this orientation. I would rather scroll up-and-down to read emails/txt/anything than sliding left-to-right and then sliding down to get more info.
I wonder if it would be possible to port the EVO Shift or Merge to the EVO and hard code the Rom to think that the keyboard is out. If I remember correctly, when I played with the Shift, the Sense home screen would switch to LS when the board was out.
We all know that there is, buried deep down in the files, an LS options in Sense. We've all seen the occasional "glitch" when exiting an app and Sense displays in LS for a second or 2.
If I had the skills, I would take this on in a heart beat. Unfortunately I do not.
As I said, I would like to start an open discussion on the subject. Thanks for your time.
Landscape sense? Do you mean Landscape Rosie because plenty of roms already support this or this can also done with Launcher Pro.
I forgot its Rosie. LauncherPro does do landscape, that's correct. But I haven't seen the ability to run Rosie/Sense Widgets in LauncherPro.
AOSP/plain Jane Android is nice, but it is nothing like HTC's package.
And while HTC continues to update that package, I believe they are missing a key option.
Have you checked out the Flyer port? Landscape, and consistently updated
I am actively following that topic, but am wondering why it is taking a tablet rom to get this accomplished.
I can't wait for Plattypus to get that working.
But one option doesn't really cut it. I see a ton of Sense/Rosie roms that are needing to be resized to fit the res of the EVO, and not one trying to take advantage of our HTC cousin slider phones.
Check out mikg 2.5 rom does landscape, and superfast cant go wrong. Its solid, stable, and in my eyes the best

I'll recommend Syngery, but I believe most of the gingersense roms have this feature
