HTC Sense launcher - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's the HTC sense launcher which has a curved circular launcher? I see it in many screen shots posted here.
My Sense launcher is plain straight dock at the bottom.
Clueless on this one.

the HTC Gacier came with the expresso sense launcher. that i believe is just the regular one or another version of it out by htc. i had the cdma hero and that had the regular curved one.

That's for stock HTC Sense ROMs, the myTouch 4G has custom version of Sense 2.0 called mySense. Stock HTC Sense also includes the flat dock bar as well, but mySense favors the flat one and the flat one only.

Thanks guys. Are there any stock HTC sense ROMs to try out the other launcher?

Desire HD ROMs.

If you like the look of stock sense and want to use aosp Rome or even stock... try helauncher from the market. Its what I use from time to time.

But there was a curved one made (if I understand the original poster), it is in the market. Its called gingerbread launcher (try them all..it was first put out in december), and you need ADW launcher installed first. I love the effect of this too, but it is rather limited: if you want to configure the dockbar, you can only choose 2 apps (plus the app drawer)--or at least I couldn't figure out how to get any more.

Helauncher is curved. It looks exactly like stock sense.

Thanks All.
I tried HeLauncher, and it looks good.
Thanks again.

(Q) Sense preview on Stock 2.2

Hiya guys, quick question.
Is there a way to have the Sense style preview (the one where you prress the home key & it shows you all the screens) on Stock 2.2? I'm rooted so it doesn't bother me if I have to flash something. Its the only feature of Sense I like
Thanks in advance

Just get a new launcher. I think Launcherpro and ADW Launcher have it default.

I don't want a new launcher though, I'm loving Stock Android. If its not available just let me know & I will live without, But if I can get it I would be in heaven!
I don't think there's a way to. However, you can set LauncherPro to look exactly like stock 2.2 in the settings.
I think is to pinch the on-screen will show that kind of screen, from the first n1 Rom I used.

Glacier launcher

I have tried quite a few roms on my MT4G and most of them are great. Thinking I have settled in to the royal glacier rom for everyday use for now. So my question is this... Is there a way to change the stock MT4G launch bar that appears at the bottom of the screen to the one that comes with the desire hd roms? I like the look of the rounded launch bar a little better than the square one that came with... Thanks in advance for any help...

I think I have seen Sense themes for ADW on the Market but I didn't look at any; if you want a customizable launcher anyway, I would download ADW Launcher.

Is this available for the mytouch 4g?

My buddy has this phone and wants these toggles on the drop down menu like in the pic attached. He is running stock ROM rooted.
I think a good place to start would be... where did you get the pic?
I have this installed on my phone (hd2) desire hd ROM. I took this screenshot.
He can a) install a widget that has notification options, b) install a custom ROM that has it included, or c) ok there were only two options that I know of.

Sense 2.1 offers that functionality, but in a slightly different UI arrangement. Check RoyalMint or the Desire S port.

I don't know that for sure...just giving you options.
Here's what Sense 2.1 looks like:
any ROM that has notification toggles does so with the same properties as a widget. There are several in the market that would give you that functionality without changing roms.
Cm7 has it. Not same icon styles but it has it.

Widetsoid (in the market) has this functionality...not the same icons though I don't think...
Widgetsoid2.X
[via XDA premium]
Mine look like this. I'm running cm7.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I have cm7 too, but those icons are sure nice on the Sense 2.1 (if thats the kinda thing that gets you off).
To be honest, Sense wasn't too bad. I might switch to a Sense Rom from CM7. Especially when you read that Sense works more efficiently on HTC phones (despite the large size).

When you install another launcher app sense launcher can be frozen in titanium backup. But it shouldn't run on its own because it hasn't been called by the system to run.

Oww ok. But one more thing. Why install a sense ROM if your gonna install a different launcher ? Wasn't sense roms meant for there widgets.
Also when froozen, sense apps disappear like clock music etc.

I like to switch to different launchers on sense sometimes so I don't have to flash a different ROM to change things up once in awhile. I'm starting to think aosp is just too boring for me. I like sense and miui lately.

The Sense camera is phenomenal, it's part of the reason I get drawn back to Sense. There's more to Sense than just a launcher, ya know

Replacing dialer app on sense 3.5 from sense 3.0?

Has anyone tried replacing dialer app (or any other sense based app for that matter) in a sense 3.5 rom from the one in sense 3.0?
Overall sense 3.5 seems better but I don't like tabs in the dialer so was thinking about downgrading to v3.0 apk. Of course I can try and see if it works but if anyone has already tried it, it will save me some time.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I need this too. I'm running sense 3.5 and would love to just flash over the sense 3.0 dialer due to the smushed numbers on 3.5
You could try pushing it but there's alot of behind the scenes kinda stuff goin on with stock dialers
