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.
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.

I love the sense 3.5 messaging app. It's sleek, smooth, and good looking. Is there any way I can replace the stock MIUI app with it? I tried flashing a sense rom, getting the apk, putting it on my sdcard, go to MIUI, and install it. It didn't work. So is there maybe a sense 3.5 messaging theme? Thanks.

To half-answer your question, you cannot get Sense 3.5 messaging on MIUI. It will only work with Sense. Not too sure about the theme either.
I'm not sure theme wise but sense is a different framework

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

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.

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
I wanted to see if I could get the ideal combination of Sense 2 and 3 by having Sense 3 apps but Sense 2.1 launcher, so I'm trying to get a lower auto brightness mod with Sense 3 lockscreen and weather, the Revolution HD theme, and possibly with a mod to disable scroll cache.
Does anyone know whether I should be using the classic or sense 3 version, and does anyone know where the sense 3 mods for ARHD 5.x.x are?

as far as I know you can't have them both due to differences in the frameworks

You'd be wrong, because I was definitely able to get GB 2.3.5 with Sense 2.1's launcher and the Sense 3 camera, keyboard, lockscreen, weather, and task manager. I have a feeling that with that combo and disabling Dalvik scroll cache would produce the smoothest Sense ROM for our phones.
If HTC released ICS for our phones with all the current Sense 3.6 features but with all 3D effects removed, I would definitely give that a shot too. Even though Sense 3 with ultra smooth rosie is fantastic, it still takes up too much RAM and there are still the 3D carousel effects.

Yeah, I wasn't too sure if you could use older frameworks with newer versions of sense. Cleared that up for me, thanks
It'd be nice to see HTC release pics with something like sense 3.6 (sense 4 would be amazing imo)
My GF's desire c (with a slower processor and tiny screen) gets ICS and sense 4 yet we don't?!

It's not really Sense 4, it's the 2D cut down version that resembles Sense 2.1 in function.
