Does anyone know how to modify Rosie/sense to get the zoom transitions to look like the stock launcher rather than the boring swipe they do?
Kaoslengendary rom as the zoom transitions, I've tried taking Rosie.apk from that and putting it on my plainjane rom but ruins the phone/apps buttons.
Thanks!
Use a different launcher such as launcherpro
Wait until there are more and better versions of ROMs with Espresso Sense. That version of Sense has zoom transitions.

Thanks for your input homewmt but launcherpro is not sense ui, as I stated in my original question I am looking to modify Rosie/sense to do the zoom transitions. I like launcherpro but it will not let me use the sense widgets.

I'll have to keep my eye out for the Espresso Sense! Thanks
I am able to get sense to do the zoom effects by putting the rosie.apk from the kaoslegendary rom, however that hides my phone button and has some other ui side effects. If he was able to get it to work in the kaoslegendary rom, seems like there should be a way to get it to work with plainjane or one of the stock root roms. I might just have to wait for the Espresso Sense.
There is one ROM in this forum that uses Espresso Sense. Search for XenEXP. It's currently on Rev7 and has some bugs and is not as fast as the fastest Sense ROM I've used (xtrSense3.1), but it looks amazing. You'll get zoom transitions and then some. Rev7 is a bit outdated. It's from May. Rev8 is hopefully coming soon. If the developer can fix the bugs and make it as fast as xtrSense, I'm switching to it.

I'll definately check that out, thanks for the pointer!
Also in Evil Eris 4.0 if you turn on the Live Wallpapers it'll turn on the OpenGL and 3d patches and whatnot which will enable zoom transitions.
The newest rosie has the zoom transition effect. I know koaslegendary, fresh rom, evil eris 4, ZenEXP, and maybe a few more have the latest rosie.

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
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..
can't remember if i asked this before. i'm running cyanagen 1.1 mainly because of having lockscreen gestures and a few other goodies. i really like sense though, but has anyone made a rom with the gestures like cyanagen has??

I don;t think so, I could be wrong. You may look into widget locker from the market. It lets you do all sorts of nonsense to your lock screen. I am not sure if it does gestures though. It's worth looking into...
I would like having Cm7. Wit sense 3.0 lock screen.
don't get me wrong, i like cm7, i ran it for about 2 weeks, the amount of system memory i had was great, but there's somethin about sense that i like alot better. one is it having a better stock browser. stock browser on aosp stinks, dolphin and opera stinks to me. now since i have that widget locker, it makes it even better.
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.

I'm sure this has been covered but I couldn't find any threads, so please forgive me for rehashing something if I have missed it.
What is the difference between a desensed rom and an AOSP rom? I thought the only difference between a sense ROM and AOSP was the Sense launcher. If you remove this, wouldn't you just have AOSP type ROM?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Unfortunately not. The Sense launcher (known as Rosie) is but one piece of the Sense framework. The Sense framework affects the entire UI of the device (status bar, settings page, lockscreen, the list is a tad long...) as well as features that are "below" the UI so to speak, like system settings and the kernel. I'm not really sure what goes into (or out of) a ROM to "desense" it, but it's probably just some theming and removing some of the default Sense apps like the launcher and lockscreen in favor of more AOSP-like alternatives. This doesn't mean that the device isn't running Sense, though, it just means it's a bit harder to see it

You can run an alternative launcher what will give you the look, but not more.
If you desense your ROM using Romcleaner, you use an alternative launcher and some parts of the ROM ( apk ) are cleaned, but there are still sense elements.
But it is much faster ...

Thanks. So a desensed rom is only going to look different than a sense rom. It might look like AOSP, but the core sense components will still be there using memory and battery. I was wondering if a desensed ROM offered any improvements in memory usage or battery life, but I'm guessing not since just changing a launcher shouldn't do much for anything but looks.

It won't look like an aosp rom either. It will look no diffrent to using a diffrent launcher on stock rom. But without sense in the background using up resources.

Are you saying a desensed ROM does use less resources and power even though it isn't AOSP?
