Hi all Desire HD Owners
We all know that Non-Sense ROMs are more lighter and have a great performance due to a lot of free RAM ,,,
So if i want to use CyanogenMod as example what is the best apps I should use as a replacement to sense widgets like clock and weather widgets and also what other apps u recommend to use while not using a sense ROM specially launchers ?
Thanks a lot and waiting your help
The Fancy Widgets clock is pretty good. There are a few calendar widgets on the market too which are good. If you haven't tried MIUI rom - I recommend that for lots of nice differences.
If you are looking for launchers you might try my page here to get a few ideas.
I like SimiClock widget a lot.. it's a very minimalistic clock widget.
It's beautiful on a dark theme.
I tried miui but it's looks like iPhone a lot and I don't like that at it..but it's an amazing ROM...
Also there is no topic in DHD Forums to show users HS like the one in Wildfire forums which is great and presented a lot of nice ideas ....
I used Cyanogenmod for a while...as for launcher I hate the default ADW because it's the ugliest piece of software on the planet so I found a mod that replaces ADW with the default gingerbread launcher which is very very sexy, especially the app drawer.
Just google the terms "stock gingerbread launcher on cyanogenmod 7" and lots of links will come up
I have a desire (similiar to dhd) I went to cm7. But came straight back as I couldn't live without the sense functionalities!
Sure AOSP roms ate faster, but I rather have more features than better performance

now on blackice cm 7.1!
for clock and calendar I'm using simiclock (includes meteo, battery% and other stuff) and simple calendar widget, i like that style! I've replaced the music app with the one from IceCream sandwich.
if you like the dolby and srs in blackice there's icetool to enable them.
I think you can give a try to that rom!
Sorry for bad english!

My personal opinion.
I used to love sense and really liked the widgets. So I have been running it for over 2 years.
I decided to make the step to MIUI and now I cannot get back.
MIUI is so fast and you can set everything the way you want.
I especially like the folders that you can drop your programs in. So I have a folder with GPS things, different tools folder, camera stuff folder etc etc.
The fact that you can also make a backup in MIUI which saves everything, yes also location of icons and folders makes this one perfect for me.
For the clock and weather I use the fancy widgets and for email I use K9 which you can configure the way you want.
I admit it took a couple of weeks to get used to. Sometimes I flash a sense rom just to try it but I've always came back after max 3 days.
Thanks all for this great feedback and waiting more from you cuz i will try MIUI or CM7.1 for a while and want to find a replacement for most of apps and widgets i use , also when CM will came with ICS so we all will be able to try it and use ICS at our devices and abandon Sense ROM
Thanks again all

You mean like this one?
I use Launcher Pro (its the smoothest and most stable imo) with the 3D clock & weather widget - it looks nice and is free.
If you search on the android market, you can find quite a few free apps better than stock 2.1 HTC Sense (excluding camcorder). There's just no true 3d widgets like the ones in sense3.0, or a lockscreen that works as well (miui lockscreens are somewhat laggy and don't have proper music/weather/etc. Agile lock takes around 3 seconds to appear after opening the screen)
Try Android Pro Widgets, they look quite similar to some of the sense ones

Thanks for the tip. Following this thread.

LOL ! Now i have to read all the 148 Pages
Regarding MIUI, you know that you can use another launcher right? The "iPhone-ish" part of MIUI is the launcher, and if you don't like that you are free to install whatever launcher you want. I'm currently using MIUI + LauncherPro and it's flying.
I use ADW, there are loads of free themes about so not liking the look is a bit of a lame excuse, but you can use any of the other launchers, I also like functionality over looks which is why I'm currently using BlackIce in my opinion AOSP wins over any other ROM any day, tried MIUI but if i wanted my phone to look like an iPhone i'd have bought one
I recommend touchpal dialer or go contacts to replace the awesome sense dialer
sent with love from me to you
I wont go with what's best for widget, as I find the less widgets the better.. but my apps are mainly;
Root Explorer
OC/UV Beater 2
CacheMate
Clockr Evolution isn't that bad
4EXT recovery updater
andrev oc installer (MIUIAndroid doesn't have it preinstalled)
SystemApp Remover
Current Widget
They're my tools apps that I have flashed into my ROM from clean recovery.. I'm not a fan of widgets, and bloat so I keep default apps to a bare minimum.. hence systemapp remover.. if I can remember correctly before I flash my apps.. I have between 55-65 apps/services on my phone.. whereas a clean install of a sense rom can come between 170-180 lol
TRY GO Lancher EX . and search for those awesome Free theme
u will love it . and it is fast and smooth ,
and get a beatiful clock widget .
trust me , u will fall love on it .
however personal opinion
i try many launcher .
here my fav
1.Go Launcher EX
2.Retina 3D Launcher
3. Launcher PRO
that all
i used to be ADW but they are not improve like other did .
just more theme but without any new features added compare to other.
however there is a huge pretty and nice ADW theme .
HTC DESIDE HD : 3 ROM install and switch between them when i get bored .
Rom 1 : RCmix3D runny sense 3.5 version 2.2
Rom 2 : MIUI FREEEze Edition 1.10
Rom 3 : BLACK ICE V 1.0 ( this Rom is dam super fast & smooth, high score in benchmark )
3 Rom install and switch anytime with sync my call log , contact , sms , apn list ( using my trick)
I am also on BlackIce CM7.1 with Lord Clockan's excellent kernel(s). I will never go back to Sense. Ever.
I use Android Pro Widgets, Beautiful Widgets, Minimalist Text, Moogly, and System Info Widget.
For look and feel, I use CM themes, ADW themed icons, and Alt Drawer. Between all these, the ability for customisation is enormous.
Just a little thread I wanted to make about a discussion on Roms around since I tried all of em and everytime I feel like switching to something new

I really like Sense as well but can see where those who hate it are coming from. I gave MIUI a try and much prefer the Sense 3.5 widgets, and all their colorful glory. I've used Sense since it was TouchFlo, so I've always had a place in my heart for it. CM7, while a purists form of Android, is too simplistic and also was too much work to setup to get it functioning like I wanted (my fault, as I really wanted Sense back).
To each their own...
I have tried all the types of ROMs and imho cm7 is the best and the most androidish.
Also I do like the newer sense ROMs(read 3.5).
Everything is about personal opinion and how you use your phone.
just my 2 cents.
cm7 is amazing, so fast and clean, i'd like to use it regulary. it took my breath away when i tried it out. but i'm missing the stock camera, news & weather widget, contact integration. and there were some smaller things i don't remember, all in all it was clean and fast, but did not have all the functionality of sense-roms.
To be fair, i didnt try out CM for some time and maybe i should have get used to it longer. I only used it 3 weeks or so.
i've never tried miui, but i absolutely love the miui-look.
so i'm using a no-sense ARHD with adw launcher ex with miui-icons and i think i'ts the best of all worlds.

ARHD..i had probs wid it...if u use it for a while..you get around 150mb free ram and if u multi task at times..apps get crashed...sense roms are too heavily ram based that is why most htc phones have memory of 700mb...
i'm changing a rom from MIUI, CM, and HTC No Sense, and the Sense itself..
for me, sense is still the best, and now i'm using the ARHD 6.1.5...
Until recently I was hooked on Sense. Now I use blackice which is cm7-like and I like it. There are three things I missed at the beginning: 1/ wheather-clock 2/ news widget and 3/ flip to silence the phone. Now I use the accuweather widget and the ics clock (eight cells combined, so the same as htc's), I wrote a custom news widget for the feed I read and still miss the flip-to-silence (but not that much).
At the end of the day they both have their pros and cons. And MIUI should be shot in the back of it's neck for threason .
i've tried cm7, miui, and a variety of sense roms. cm was spartan but functional. miui (i tried freshly squeezed) was great but it (and cm7) were missing something that makes me stay on sense: the calendar widget. i've searched for a good calendar widget so that i could stay on miui, but i haven't found one as good as the htc one.
i also like the htc lockscreen. i know widgetlocker can do it, but i don't want to run another program just for that...
CM9 all the way
I vote ICS ftw running beta 2 as a daily works ok aside from the listed bugs.
it is too early to flash ICS unless you're a dev and want to work on it for dev purposes...not a good idea to use it for everyday use...
Does anyone know a good sense rom with good amount of free ram?

I guess you could use runny4 with a script to free up Ram. You'll have around 270 MB ram after booting but of course, then script seems to kill the launcher sometimes....especially after using a resource heavy app. It's kinda annoying!
I've been using black ice ROM for a week now and I don't think I'll be coming back to sense, ever(except maybe to take a look at sense 4.0 when it comes out)! For me, it was just about finding the right widgets to replace the sense widgets. I've found quite a few excellent replacements in the market.
I'm still searching for something which can perfectly replace friendstream. I've tried pretty much everything there is...none of them work as well as friendstream did. Anyone got any ideas?

which theme you're using from theme chooser? using sense lockscreen app? which clock widget you're using...
For anyone who is missing the HTC weather wiget from Sense while they are on CM give Beautiful Widgets a try.
And I'm using the ICS beta. Sure there is no camera, you need to set up your data connection manually. The gallery force closes, but installing something like QuickPic gets round that. But all in all it is good enough for me to run day to day.

MIUI is pretty amazing, you dont have to use the default launcher you can install anyone you like but the theme engine is by far the best, it beats the Cyanogenmod theme engine. it can theme everything and i really mean everything from fonts to lockscreen to boot sound.

I agree with MIUI. Live the on the fly customization its capable of. And now with new ES Mod, you can enable native app drawer. Folder up the ones on home screen.

Try "android pro widgets" as a replacement for friend stream. Perfectly fits for me.
All roms have their advantages and disadvantages...I love them all ^^
What bothers me on CM and MIUI is the Camera.
The DHD camera is really good and it is a pity that it is not really supported at both roms.
I am currently using ICS ... Although I have no camera but this rom is amazing
I think the only thing that keeps me going on sense is the notification bar. I'm a big fan of how sense's pull down has a recent apps section an is split into two sections one for recent things and the other for quick settings.
I mean, I understand that you can get recent apps by long pressing home but the notification bar is in like most non full screen apps, pulling it down is simple.
I used to be hard core CM but then i started going back to Sense just for the way the notifications are set up. Perhaps if there is a notification bar recent apps plugin or fix for non Sense Roms, i would leave it.
Thought I'd repost this thread as the previous one on our Hero forums is a little outdated.

Not too much of wallpapers huh?
Yesterday I tried LeWa OS RC2 [Port for hero GSM]
performance, dialler, network traffic monitor, user interface is unbelievably comfortable, variety of skins to choose from, at least for me this rom was a pearl, finally dropped the ideas of getting HTC sensation XE. That phone is still breathing fire after 2 years of hard use, hundreds of times flashing it and so fourth
Rom: LeWa OS RC2 [Port for hero GSM]
Launcher: N/A
Widget: ^3 (Cubed) music player, Animated Weather,
I do not really know the launcher name, maybe bharat_goku can tell that and haven't any widgets yet, just a simple weather widget (Animated Weather) which I do not like, because of the adds and stuff and Filippe Abrantes music player called "3", I find it on the market by typing abrantes, but I like that not because of the widget but because it has my beloved jump to and queue functions..
this is mine

Hey all,
So seeing as level up have ruined beautiful widgets, does anyone know of any good alternatives?
Most if not all of the clocks and weather themes I used are gone, and the clocks are low rez, lose time,
and the Home weather widget is gone. The weather part of the app is ugly and poorly designed now too.
So i'm trying to find some clock widgets to replace it as I am furious they took an app I loved and replaced it with
an abomination lol.
Cheers.
I actually prefer the new version of BW. Using the HTC One X theme found on the theme market
But I see that HD Widgets is pretty up there in popularity. Not a fan of it though.

Thanks I will take a look. More than anything I need one that keeps time, which this one it seems still doesn't
I am annoyed because almost all the themes left for the clocks are exactly the same, all the home weather one's I liked, unless i'm not looking properly like angry birds, are gone, and the app is now slow and laggy.
Guess it's all down to personal preference but I just wish they would offer the old version.

Hit the thanks button if I helped I bought BW when it was on sale so I'm not too crazed about it, idk I like the improvement of BW 5.0 doesnt feel laggy at all, especially not on the N4.
I have both HD Widgets and Beautiful Widgets. There are a lot more style choices in HD Widgets. HD Widgets also allows you to customize the look of the widget more than BW.

I used The 4x1 Weather widget in Beautiful widgets with the SimpleSolid skin. But when the 5.0 update came, it made the icons in the widget bigger and due to that they don't fit into the 4x1 space properly anymore. Parts of the images get cut off because they extend outside the widget boundaries.
I had to switch to another skin that uses much smaller icons but I really liked the SimpleSolid skin and will probably explore alternative widget options.
I have both and I prefer HD widgets because I don't have to search for widget themes as you can edit the widgets through the app and HD widgets has switches that I use a lot.

Hi,
i am waiting for my nexus 4 to be shipped soon, but i am currently not sure how i will like jelly bean without any theme,
i have been using htc's sense on my sensation for quite a a while, about 19 months and the main things i like are the widgets, the contacts and phone theme and the messages app theme,
my questions is that is there a custom rom that is similar to the htc's sense or is the standard google rom ok ?
just worried as i may miss my sensation too much.
thanks in advance.

my ship time was like 6-7 weeks, its been about 2 and half so far

I went Sensation => One X => Nexus 4
I have to say though, I always preferred AOSP to Sense, so I'm not in the same boat as you. The only thing I vaguely miss is the weather clock widget, but I replaced it with something else.
I'm also coming from sensation.
Had HTC for the past few years just because of sense.
But after getting this phone, I will never look back again. You can find the things you need on play store to replace those HTC widgets.
AOSP is a whole other experience. Better than you imagine when used to a HTC phone.
In my opinion, I can't stand manufacturer UIs and would rather have the stock theme any day.
Use Beautiful Widgets if you want a HTC like clock weather widget.

note: BW is on sale right now so get it before it goes back to full price! definitely worth it.
Coming from a few HTC phones(look at sig).
This thing is blazing fast compared to my Sensation, it's like when I went from my g1 to mytouch 3gs, but with a larger gap. This thing is worth every penny if you ask me. The design, speed, and price are unbeatable.
I use to be crazy about Sense also but after awhile you get use to the much nicer stock JB UI and its widgets.
coming from mytouch4g. definitely prefer HTC widgets over stock widgets but i prefer AOSP performance over HTC widgets
Always owned mostly HTC phones (HTC Magic, HTC Evo 3D, HTC Amaze) only cuz I really liked Sense, especially the widgets. Had an Sony Ericsson Arc for a while, which made me realize how much I actually liked Sense.
Using the N4 now, I've found replacements for most of the HTC widgets, except I really miss the monthly calendar widget where I can see the whole month.
Using Jorte as an alternative but it's not as pretty as the HTC sense widget. Also miss the stock widget, but that's not as important as the calendar IMHO.
i mis the contact book from HTC, other stuff you can fine tune for yourself.
Nothing is better than stock.
Love my Nexus 4.......except for camera....One X camera is great!

I have exactly the same problem.
So far haven't seen a month widget that could match the looks and usability of he htc calendar widget. Would love to know if there is one that could match it?
I have SPB mobile shell 3d and HD widgets.
SPB runs and looks real good on the Nexus 4 so in terms of widgets, and looks I substitute most things I used in sensation, with those 2.
The only thing I miss and can't find decent substitute for is the contacts app, and WiFi calling.
Note: WiFi calling was a T-Mobile specific thing.

Sooo many people miss things from sense
I think we need to pay a developer to port sense onto nexus 4
That would be awesome.
I think I will need to find a few alternatives .

HTC Sensation as well. Best thing I ever did was flash Virtuous Inquisition. AOSP style but still Sense framework so everything works as it should.
Only thing about AOSP is the dispute between Google and Facebook over who owns contact information. As a result, in stock form, Facebook contact numbers don't sync. Considering I relied on Facebook for 90% of my contact numbers originally......
But using Google Voice now for SMS, my primary contacts are all with Google as well now.
Not sure what it is about HTC Sense that's a big deal.
