Title says all, I'd like to know what launcher Sensehero 2.1 Build 5 is using.
And if it is possible to apply a livewallpaper-patch.
Thx for reading!!
My assumption was that it is still SenseUI but heavily modded,... Could be wrong though.

Hmmmm, yeah could be, but if I take a look at the pictures, it really looks like the Froyo launcher.
Yeah, its really nice isn't it. Pretty sure it is, as it is still a Sense ROM.

Yea it is!!
I'd really like to see full Froyo at the HTC Hero
And i think i really like the Launcher, it's just.. it has something more then LauncherPro which is GREAT though!!
I'd like to use an alt launcher or a Vanilla ROM but am tied to Sense as I cant live without the HTC Calendar widget that can scroll up and down. A real shame as that Launcher Pro does look really nice.

Yep same here, I really loved the launcher at my HTC Niki that time it was eclair I thought, or even donut, but I loved it!!
Just the pure android, with the original widgets and stuff.
But I'm addicted to the HTC Camera and there are a few other things i just can't miss..
it says on the sensehero post what it is!
Remapped nav buttons and reskinned...
Just the rosie launcher on steroids
Right hand button is still add widget,middle is apps left is phone

Well, is there any program that makes Android menu "sideways" instead of down? List is soo long, would be much easier just to scroll sideways.
If this has been asked before, sorry, but couldnt find any when I searched
What menu specifically?

If you mean your application menu, i believe ADW launcher has a setting for this (or LauncherPro).. i forgot which one it exactly was, but i've seen it for sure with one of these
That of course, if you mean your application menu
Sorry, yes, application menu, but if I get adw or launcher.pro, do I have to get rid of sense then?

That...is a very good question.
I only used ADW or LauncherPro on non Sense builds. I honestly have no idea if they work with Sense too..

ADW launcher replaces the sense launcher... And it's the one that has the horizontal application scroller. There must be a way to do side scrolling though inside some app drawers like Launcher Pro and SenseUI.

Crap, don't want to replace Sense.
Anyone else maybe know this?
Sorry, but bump?
I have been trying a lot of android builds and I guess that the only place where I came across the horizontal scrolling option were in non-sense ( ) builds. I prefer sense too... so its a shame. Hoping someone can help with this one ..
Well, I don't know about the rest of you but I enjoy the functionality of MySense in certain respects. My dislikes are not enough to get me to jump to an alternative launcher but they are enough to make me want changes.
In my eyes.... two things will make Espresso aesthetically pleasing and more functional. The first being redirecting/replacing the My Faves with Browser or messenger. And the second... changing the drawer icon to the FROYO blocks icon.
Now, I don't have a full grasp on what would be involved in doing so, but common sense or my lack of understanding perhaps tell me those 2 icons and the 1 remapping can't be too involved. To anyone out there ready and willing to take this on... I will volunteer to be the guinea pig for testing. Me and Nandroid are best friends.
Looking forward to it.
you forgot your recent app's thing lol or did you find that one?

Lol, not forgotten... that is still on my list in the quest of a perfect MT4G. I am going to make that one my personal project. I figured it is in my best interest to enlist some "qualified" help for the Espresso Project.
lol the things you mentioned above are my exact problems with the stock launcher as well everything else i like as of lately ive jus been using a combination of iced glacier and ADW to get sumthing almost similar to wat you discribed but in all i would love to see an actual rom that benifits both i too will be a tester for anyone who decides to take on this project and good luck

ADW is a nice launcher. I just hate losing the MySense features by doing so....

i agree ADW doesnt have any real widgets so it does put u at a loss. if sumone could successfully merge the two launchers and have the benifits of both we would have a fricken great rom for this phone. i tried to flash the apks from the glacier rom onto the ADW launcher but it freezes the homescreen i cant get the widgets to successfully adapt to the ADW protocols which puts me back to sqaure one lol
what is root?
I turned my phone on and now the screen glows???? wtf your rom borkded it.... can I abd push ota or does the motherboard need fixing???? thanx in advance

Motherboard for sure... I will PM you my address. Sent me your phone and I will fix it when I get a chance.
-iced glacier,
-adw
-pure calendar widget
-stock twitter app & widget
-simiclock (has weather now)
-quick settings for the best customizable power and brightness controls and can be launched from tapping simiclock when set up that way, also can be added to status bar
-circle battery (just looks cool and clean)
All of this together makes me very pleased with this phone. I have test out sooooo many different apps for these functions and various roms on other phones.. just my taste and opinion.. but give them a try if you havent.
Is there a way to change the right side dock button? I'd much rather it go to text messages than the "Personalize" screen....anyone know how to change it?
Blah! HTC Sense... I am disgusted with it as well.
Best bet would probably be getting a third-party launcher (Launcher Pro / ADW Launcher).

I'm a Launcher Pro junkie. Love it. Sense on the other hand is definitely a love/hate thing for me. Some of its features are really slick, but many of them just get in the way. I too would like to change that personalize button. Need to look into it more closely.
It won't matter...once a CM7 gingerbread build comes out for this thing, I'm there and goodbye Sense.
Agreed. Once CM7 is ported and I have my TB rooted... there is no turning back to this bloated, stock, Sense 2.2 garbage.
I've always loved LauncherPro. I have the Plus version. But this is my first HTC phone, so I'm using it stock for a bit first just to get a taste of what Sense is all about for a while.
I don't mind it too much. Runs smooth, but has so much bloatware attached to it.
If I could customize the dock buttons around and hide icons in the app tray, I think I'd be fine with Sense.
I have seen this done in some roms but I am pretty sure you have no shot without root. I think I had it in Mikfroyo but it was called modified Rosie or Rosie Options. Something like that.
Btw...mikfroyo is an EVO from under the Evo Dev section

New sense is nice actually. I like it so far...better than sense 2.0..
is there a way to get the motoblur launcher back, i kinda liked it, i'm rooted with ADEO
.....................?
my guess is that since nobody knows what you did to get rid of it, we cant really help without more info. what launcher did you install?
sorri about that, i installed launcher pro

motoblur is not half as bad as 99% of the people who complain about it say it is..
Its much better than most of the custom launchers in just performance alone. Turn on live wallpapers on all other launchers and notice how crappy the performance is on anything but Motoblur..

i havent really noticed that. I'm running launcher pro with the nexus live wallpaper and it's running fine. The thing i didnt like about the moto home launcher is the inability to change the dock icons and that when scrolling thru screens you have to wait a second to get into the app drawer, just little annoying things like that.

That's true, but in all other performance-related issues LauncherPro and ADW perform *MUCH* better than Motoblur. It's quicker in almost every regard...almost instant to the touch. Motoblur is delayed in almost everything you do.
I'm all about making things look good, and motoblur looks like a flaming turd at my front door...
LauncherPro FTW!
I restored motoblur launcher after instaled gingerblur 1.3, motorblur is way better than the gingerlike launcher IMO
Ive been looking through peoples themes and what not and Im curious as how to change icons and screens, is it a skin or is it the rom or what? Just for example i like how some people have the circle battery instead of the battery icon and things like that, if someone could help me out id appreciate it alot. Thanks in advance

Things like the circle battery and anything on the taskbar are either going to be part of a rom or a theme. You can do them individually yourself but you would have to do some research on theming. You also need to be rooted with s-off. If you like a more stock look rather than sense launchers like launcher pro from the market offer a lot of themes and icon packs that can be installed with or without root.

Im currently rooted S-Off running Bamf 3.0 Sence RC4.9 what exactly are launchers? Sorry just trying to figure out what everything is...
A launcher is what runs the whole user interface. Home screens, dockbars, icons, and shortcuts. HTC phones comes with sense. (except the g1, g2, and nexus 1) Sense is actually more than just the launcher its a while UI overlay. Sense's launcher is really called rosie but that's not really important here unless you are planing on learning to theme. If you look in the market there are launchers like Launcher Pro, ADW, and their variants plus many more. Just search launchers and try one out. When you press your home button it will let you choose sense or whichever other launcher you have installed. If you try one just read the instructions and play around with it. Plus search the market for themes built for the launcher you d/l. (for example...search ADW themes in the market) Everything on your sense screens will remain the same. If you want to stick with sense 3.0 that comes with BAMF 3.0 try some BAMF themes. I would check out rootzwiki or teambamf.net. I doubt you will find them here.
