Removing recently used apps in Sense - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I posted this in evil's Sense 3.0 thread but this is Sense in general, not just 3.0. I would like to remove the recently used apps from the Notification pulldown. The home key hold obtains this result and I don't like the cluttery look in my drop down. Any workarounds?

Are you on cm6? sense?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Install LauncherPro. It is a home replacement that is a substitute for sense. With it you will be able to adjust how many homescreens you want.
Will installing that kill my HTC Sense?
is there a way to do this on cm6 with adw?

it will not. it should be pretty easy to switch back to sense if you don't like how things are looking with launcherpro. Chances are, you'll never look back.

It wont kill the Sense integration with the phone, but it will kill the Sense widgets.

Thank you. I like launcher pro and the only widget I liked was that clock with the weather. But love having fewer screens, thanks again.

no problem man.
yea i know what you mean about missing the htc widgets, my gf felt the same thing about her aria too, until i set up her phone to look like this:

she really like it and didn't even think about weather anymore lol
if you really want that sense look, there are other widgets that can replicate the same thing... search for fancy widgets. BeautifulWidgets is also a good alternative.

that's what i did last night. installed LP over HTC Sense 2.2 Froyo. reduced the number of screens and i like LP because they add unread email notifications over the gmail app icon. it's cleaner and customizable.

Long press on an empty area of the screen and choose widgets.
that should let you select them.
Not the samsung ones just android

I can't even get the android ones to show up. Am I missing something?
Edit: never mind I do get the android ones.
They are part of touchwiz which you turned off. If someone was/is able to extract them from touchwiz that would be cool. But its all part of touchwiz launcher. Like htc sense. If anyone has pulled some of those I would like to have a few.

X2. I have an Evo and upon installing Launcher Pro I no longer have the ability to use Sense widgets in LP, but going back to Sense I can use them 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.

Tried & doesn't work. :-(

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).

HTC Sense launcher

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?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
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.
