I honestly dont know to post this in general, or questions, but just an area were you ROM Developers can see this.
I was hoping that some of you could get together, and reconfigure sense in a way to resemble the upcoming HTC EVO 4G LTE.

It looks quite nice. Somewhat looks like MIUI but with an app drawer and the famous sense clock. I'm not sure how changing the way a ROM works but it seems possible as I've seen so many various 100% custom look changes. Maybe someone just make a very cool stable ROM the resembles the 4G LTE's style. Maybe a sense theme or someone make that sense clock?
If anyone would like to take up this challenge, or multiple of you team up to make a nice rom that looks dead on like the LTE, please leave a reply or send me a PM. I have photoshop experience if any graphics are needed i could help out to an extent.
i would bet money people are working on this and will be coming eventually a great challenge for our wonderful devs
The battery. That removable battery is crucial if you're stuck on a splash screen or bootlooping. Where's the removable battery, HTC?
It will most likely have a reset pin or button combo that will dissconnect the power supply from the battery. Most tablets are that way.

Could do something along this line to hold yourself off until then :thumbup:

As sexy as that looks, I think I'll stay AOSP. Less bloat.
Check out SOS S by Team Swag. You can theme it to look quite a bit like Sense 4.0.
Guys, let's stay on topic lol. And Nah. That screen shot is very far from it the LTE. But love that clock

Why do people like clock Widgets? I have never understood the fascination. You can always see the time in the notification bar. Like redundancy? I just don't get it. Why waste your screen with a CLOCK?

What are you guys using that real estate for? Other widgets? More apps? I do like the look of the clock, but honestly I use it because HTC put it there. Never really thought of losing it, lol. But now you got me thinking...
I'm more worried about the people that are worried about what other people are doing. Especially when it concerns something as trivial as an additional clock on a HS. Yikes.
i dont like the size of the sense clock but i like the look and feel of it to be honest if they could slim it down to 2x2 or 4x1 widget i would be pumped

I will have to admit that I have been a HTC WinMo fan boy for the last 6yrs. Wm was not perfect but, it got the job done. Custom roms were good but, they always had bugs. So when I got my EPIC an my first android phone I was blown away. The speed how well everything worked together. I was amazed how people complained about touchwiz. I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe because I don't know of any better interface. It not as flashy as HTC sense but, it seems fast.
I hear alot of nitpicking here about the phone. They compare stock EPIC roms to Custom roms on other phone. Not realizing that everyone doesn't like the custom rom you love. I don't know of anything being perfect. But, some of the people that bought this phone were expecting more.
I love the phone. I just wanted to know what others think.
I'm amazed by it. Every time I get a spare second, I want to pick it up and play with it.
I really like the design of the phone more than the other Galaxy S variants. The soft touch back reminds me of the EVO, and the screen looks so good sitting there with the phone turned off. Which brings me to my next point:
This screen is so brilliant. I've not noticed any of the issues people complain about. It's gorgeous. HD movies look better on the Epic than any other phone I've seen (EVO and iPhone 4). I constantly want to change my wallpaper.
The speed of this phone is fantastic. It's faster on 2.1 than my EVO is with CM6 (Froyo). I never used sense on my EVO. I actually stuck with touchwiz for a while before I finally installed launcher PRO. Again, Launcher Pro AND Touchwiz are faster than anything I put on my EVO. Menus scroll with no lag at all. Apps open very fast and games are perfect. I didn't like that a lot of games ran slow on the EVO... and some were downright unplayable. I'm a big gamer, so this is important.
The keyboard is pretty convenient. I use swype for most things... like texting, emailing, etc. But I love the keyboard for when I need to type numbers, usernames\passwords, website URLs, etc. I also use it for games\emulators.
All in all, I'm very happy with this phone. It's not for everybody, but it is definitely for me. I've actually made a few iPhone 4 users jealous. They were never jealous of my EVO
I love love love this phone. its deff worth the move after being an iPhone user for 2.5 years. I love the freedom I have to make and customize the phone to my taste vs just having a glass screen with shortcuts all over it. every time I wake my phone I swear I get more and more amazed by the screen quality lol.. the phone is very fast and snappy. the only complaint I seem to suffer from is my battery life =/ .. other than that this is deff an iPhone killer in my eyes.

I do love some of the necro'd memories. I was still a guest lurker during this post.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0S6NMH4ry-4
This is a nice UI from a gingerbread device Infobar A01 from Japan ,
Mixed WP7 and Android feel. Is there any similar launcher?
Saw this on the Android GAF thread. Looks super awesome. Nice to see a OEM/Manafactuer make a totally different UI as opposed to Sense/TouchWiz etc which barely changes the style of Android
love it!!
ok im moving to japan now! bye
Someone absolutely needs to make a launcher out of this. please.

I've been keeping a close eye on Fipplr, and recently pinged the CEO/Founder of the company behind it since I hadn't heard from her in a while. She told me that because of legal concerns, they decided to modify the look and feel. I'm still super excited for it though, and she's promised to keep me updated and let me know when they have any renders/details of the new style.

That's prettyy much like a totally black Android toolbar with white icons... and any way, the phone advertised IS an Android phone with a June(??) release date (hopefully).
Thats ugly, the screen is too crowded, everything is too fat and bulky, theres no room for a wallpaper, vertical scrolling is boring, and the category title bars are too thick

Ehh, not a big fan of the round icons. I still like Sense, just not as much since all of the sense reboots I used to get before flashing MIUI.
HTC saying 3.5 will be compatible with all of there handsets not just their high range phones. Would be nice to see this happen. Sense is getting nicer and nicer but I run cm7 for the speed and vanilla look

I agree with you on the vanilla part. However there are something's of sense that I like. Like the text selector I think it is superior to aosp. I would love to run a sense 3.0 rom without the lockscreen. That ring annoys the crap out of me.
