2.2 stock contacts on froyo sense

Hi,
I really like the froyo with sense roms available but the not HTC contacts apps.
Is there a way to replace the sense contacts app by the stock one ?

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...

Mine look like this. I'm running cm7.

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).

Install missing Sense Widgets / Apps in Sense ROMS

Hey,
I'm using various Sense Roms. In some of them there are a few Sense Apps or Widgets missing. Is it possible to install them manually?
Or to put them into a ROM afterwards?
Does somebody know where to get/download the Sense-APKs?
Hope somebody can help...
greetz TOM

I am looking them too.
An example: I like Location widget but rom makers deletes this widget.
How can i find/install sense widgets as this.
And
I am looking for a gingerbread rom with sense. There are a few roms (imilka's, boyppc etc.) but they have lots of missing widgets/features.
Is there a FULLY WORKING GINGERBREAD with SENSE 3.0.
Thanks.

Gingerbread Sense 3.0 ROM is still under development and it's in a very alpha stage atm.
Imilka's GB ROM has Sense 2.1 and some issues like camcorder not working and some minor visual glitches.
Here it is what you're looking for mate

You are great thesniffer.
Thanks for location widget.
I'm looking and waiting for a rom that has ginger and all sense features. Imilka's sensation sense has sense 3 but there are lots of problems as camera and resulotion problems. So i will wait a stable ginger sense release. Therefore i continue to use boyppc desire rom.
Thanks for reply.
but location apps didn't work. (froya, boyppc). anyway thanks thesniffer..

This might sound stupid, but these widgets will not work on CM7, am I correct. Only roms with sense.

[Q] Sense 3.0 sms app?

Hi, does anyone know how to install the sense 3 messaging app on older versions of sense? It's just so much better than this stock Desire app!
I'm running Tabasco Silky v2.0, an AOSP ROM.

Try pushing the apk to system/apps with setting permissions. Not sure, tho, it may require sense framework.

It worked for me when I was on coolBravoS ROM, so it's okay with Sense 2.

AOSP or SENSE??

Hi all,
I am stucked by choices.. I love the AOSP ICS rosie UI and features.. but I can't live w/o sense apps and especially HTC Sync. Is there anyway we can have ICS rosie with HTC apps like premium navigation, messages, blah blah and importantly HTC sync ???

All the ics sense Rom are still abit far from fully working..
Was it possible to change Rosie to ics Rosie?

AOSP! Speed and efficiency!

It's speed and efficiency, over looks.
I've tried them all, but i always go back to Sense 3.5. (Waiting for stable for daily use 4.0.3 with Sense 3.6)

Well.. I was just wondering if we can have all.. aosp sounds fun but HTC have many widgets and HTC sync to provide the convenience that I need.
Will uninstalling HTC sense do the trick or cause the Rom to Fc?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

It's all driven by personal choice.
I installed an AOSP ICS rom and I loved it, but ultimately, for me the experience was lacking without Sense. So I dropped back down to GB with Sense 3.5.
I'm waiting for a stable ICS release with Sense, will upgrade then

Well, that's why I'm asking if there is any way to combine both..
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I am also a huge fan of Sense. But i'm on IceColdSandwich and really love it for daily use. When there will be a working sense ICS ROM i will switch, but for now i'm going with the AOSP one. You can customize it so that it at least looks like a sense rom

do what I do...keep back up of another rom so if you get twitchy you can flip back etc..actually I have three at the moment .runny 4.0...this is my daily I use this more because of sense...ics just because its smooth and...sweet. and now got absolution.I'm not a gamer so save data etc doesn't matter to me..SMS can be retrieved if needed.contacts are on both so..my 10p worth
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App

Anyone else find battery life is poorer on sense roms, or is that just me? I'm currently using IceColdSandwich, really nice rom.

Well, an AOSP uses tons less space and ram, so i would imagine the battery life would be immense on that.
I flashed Virtuous Quattro and that used hardly any space in the system partition, where sense Roms use almost all of the space.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough.. what I'm trying to find out here is if there is any sense Rom that is possible to be customised to look like ics without losing the advantages of some sense apps and HTC sync. I'm not into switching roms as I prefer to have one to work as my daily driver.
I know of coz ics Rom can be customised to be as close to sense but without sense kernel, there will still be missing HTC sync and some sense apps.

I've been a sense guy too for a long time but I've recently been following lord's ice cold sandwich rom and I love it more than any sense rom out there.

The great thing would be a rom AOSP
with synchronization, camera and widgets (Sense)
Greetings!

Aosp. I always had sense. But I'm on LC s ics and its great. No more sense for me.

well yeah...launchers..adw have ics themes,launcherpro..golauncher ex has a sweet ics theme,all it does it change your dock etc and app draw,but lets you slide horizontal so thats good anyway...thats the only way your going to look like ics without losing sense,failing that,use the ics theme on a sense rom

Ok I will put it to you simple. The only way to have sense apps is to use Sense. Non of the widgets work without the launcher being used. All of the apps can be replaced with AOSP versions. Not sure about the navagation as I would never use a phone to tell me where i need to go. Sync seems to be a big deal for you and not sure why. There are far better option out there.
So simply if you want to use HTC apps then you will use Sense.

yeah but depends if he wants the widgets..the apps themselves can still work,your not wrong though,the asop is quicker,battery lasts longer.can customize more,..sadly although i have them on my back ups,im a sense rom junkie,gets on my nerves to be honest. im hoping,with sense 4..they up there game now,sense 3.6 is..just with a few added bits not really an overhaul and its debateable whether because its running ice cream in the background if it will actually make a difference
forgot to say,although you can replace all apps from sense with others in asop.The mail app still in my opinion is one of the leaders for that sort of app. If someone could port that out of a sense rom id be chuffed lol
