So I noticed on the Stock Lockscreen (Safari Theme) whenever i hit the button where the time is displayed, small arrows on both sides of the screen animate to pull it down.
Well my questions is, if it would be possible to have that animation come up whenever i unlock the screen without having to touch the time bar......
Confused are you talking about the edit arrows that come up when you long press the time can you be a little more clear on what you want working on a lock screen app right now and can try to add what you need in it if I can figure out what it is you want

Oh I see what you mean now had to see it on my girls phone so do you want the lock bar there to or just the arrows? And is your phone rooted my app will require root

I would like the bar with the animated arrows right when you wake up the phone.
In other words so that the arrow animation plays without me having to touch the lock bar if that makes sense.

Just installed Froyo 2.2 yesterday and so far i like it aside from a couple things i miss but its sooo much faster!
Anyways somehow made my bottom bar disappear and now i have no idea how to get into my application page. I'm talking about the bottom part with the Phone icon, Application Icon, and Browser Icon. I think i might have held it to long while i was messing around and it went down and now its gone. Been trying to bring it back for awhile now and cant find out how.
p.s. I tried to post a screen shot of my phone but it wont let me due to being a new user.
Froyo has the ability to hide the app drawer bar and notification bar by swiping up or down on the home screen go to your home screen and swipe down like you are browsing a website should pop back up.

awesome! thank you so much for the quick response!
Is there anyway to add icons to that? I noticed that if i hide that then i can put icons on the bottom but is there a way to add icons directly to that "drawer" as u called it
Of course. Just go to the app drawer and select an app. Keep hold of the app like you would to put it on the home screen and drop it down on the bottom bar. I believe you can scroll through the bar as well. I know for sure you can on Launcher Pro because that's what I use primarily.

What you have discovered is the new scrollable dock bar in ADW. It freaked me out the first time I opened it. By default, it is accessed by swiping up on your screen. This action is very buggy and only works seldomly.
How to change it - go to ADW Settings > System Preferences > Swipe Down Actions > Open/Close Dockbar. Now from your homescreen you can swipe down any where below your notification bar and access this scrolling dockbar. You can drag and drop unlimited apps in it. When you want your normal dockbar back just swipe down again on your screen.
Hope this helps.

Not sure everyone noticed but when sliding between the 7 home screens, if you slide it slowly with your finger, then you'll notice that the widgets are starting to pop out more. This effect is just like compiz for Linux.

That's pretty cool. I also noticed when on the homescreen with the weather widget, place a finger on top left of screen, and a finger on the bottom right of screen, then swipe left finger up at same time as right finger down, it brings up the screen where it shows all 7 screens.....hope you can follow that, haahaa!

The pinching in swiping that brings up all 7 screens can be done at any position and any screen, just start by having two fingers apart and pinch in then u get it. Cool thing with 3.0 is that you can slow motion this process.
I was hoping this would be a thread about how you had enabled landscape mode on the EVO 3d like on the flyer. Stupid that EVO 3d has this rotation locked

i was hoping this was a thread that had a way to disable the carousel when swiping fast..When i want to get to a screen fast the stupid thing spins..Dumb feature,cool at 1st yes but when it comes down to every day use the carousel is stupid.
I don't know about all that pinching stuff to get the 7 screens, its easier just to hit the home button when on the home screen. I don't know if this was on my EVO 4G, but i like when I'm using the browser, you can long press the return key and it brings up the history.
You can also see the gears on the side of the flip clock.

Is there a way to turn off the carousel effect? Especially at unlock, it's really annoying and actually detracts from performance.

Nope sorry. Just download spare parts and slow down the animations so it don't take off as much.

I've learned that the carousel will only go if you swipe over more than half the screen. As long as you do short swipes it works a lot better.
Hello all,
I"m just wondering how the Sensation and Evo 3d both have the weather on the home screen back ground once you unlock the screen. Why does this phone not have the same back ground weather feature on the home screen?
I believe it does. On the home screen if you hit the personalize button , when the menu comes up you will see the option "lockscreen", hit that then move over to where it says weather. Hit apply, hit the poeer button then see if it comes up after it unlocks.

It's also there as a live wallpaper. Under the wallpaper section if the same place.

It's actually on sense 3.0 which is weird that it's not on this phone. I mean no big deal but it was an awesome feature
Just make sure you have the HTC Weather Clock on your homepage and make sure that under Weather options, Show full screen animation is checked.
To check this, just hold down on the widget on your screen and drag it to the edit option. Select your city then you'll get a single option under Weather options to show full screen animation.
I just tried this out and as soon as I unlock the screen on my Amaze, I can see the weather effects flowing across the home screen.
He wants the wallpaper to show current weather. It's a live wallpaper. Press personalize button then wallpaper then live wallpaper then select weather.. I think that's what he's talking about..

If you look at his first post, he's asking to "have the weather on the home screen back ground once you unlock the screen."
If you look at his Youtube link, at 2:19, you can see the guy unlocking the screen, then the weather effects appear. This is the same as showing the full screen animation under the weather options for the HTC Sensation Clock.
You can try it right now and you can see you'll get the same effects.

odd this is not working for me...
I even removed the widget and replaced it... I get plenty of animation on the lockscreen just not on the homescreen after unlocking. It is sunny here so I should get a lens flare and the sun should grow larger for a second. That is not happening.
Odd indeed. Just to check my sanity, I re-added the HTC clock widget (the first one out of the 17). When it asked me to select a city, I selected current location, then it moved to the Weather options tab and I selected Show full screen animation.
As soon as I did that, I didn't even have to lock my screen to see the weather affects across my whole home screen. I did lock my screen then unlock it after to see if the effects were still there and they were...
Not sure why it's working for me and not others

Ok, I sort of lied... What I really did was go to the widgets find the one and tried to get to the weather options. Well I got there but then it added the same widget twice essentially. I only deleted one. This time i removed that widget completely and then long pressed where I wanted added and even prompts the weather options for fullscreen. Made sure it was checked and now it is working
TL; DR Remove the widget completely and then add it back making sure the option for full screen animation. It will then start working!
Awesome, glad I wasn't crazy haha.
Hopefully this is the answer the OP was looking for

can honeybar be upgraded ? it takes up a lot of space.... can v utilise that space...like samsung did in touchwiz UI ... they paced a shortcut button on honeybar in center(as in image)
is there any app that can do?
can it be added to sense?
I hear you on that. I would love to have the app drawer on the bottom. I also hate the app switcher and the lack of clear all notifications. IMO it does seem to run a little better then GB and overall am liking it better more then I thought.
well touchwiz has done a good job... actually when u touch on the small arroe pointed in the picture... we get 5-6 nice shortcuts... that is something HTC sense lacks.... is there any app fo tat?
First, this area of the screen is not called "honeybar" ,its the system bar. Honeybar is a 3rd party applications.
Second, I must be missing something, isn't exactly what the system bar does on the flyer when you touch the right corner?

These are my major gripes with the bar. I would love if these could be addressed in an app or rom.
-When notifications appear, instead of occupying the space next to the time and battery indicator, they cover it up. This makes the settings popup unclickable.
-Notifications can't be "cleared all"
-The background task button is no more useful than holding the home button in GB
-The settings popup can't be customized
-CM7 has an option to hold the back button to kill the current process. The same type of behavior would be indispensable when an app freezes.
I can't agree about the background task button. It is much more effective for me.then long pressing home on gb. I can switch through three apps before you could switch one.

i agree with the name mistake but i was toking bout different thing... touchwiz has shortcut button in center of system bar and i think that is way better than wasting space without anything... jus check out wizzbar or see some video of "touchwiz UI on HC"
Coming from phones with smaller screens, I like to be able to drag down the notification bar enough to see who the email is from or what the notification is about, without having to pull it all the way down and back up. With the bigger screen on the EVO LTE, I'm wondering if there is a way to show the notifications starting at the bottom, so I can see them with only a slight pull on the bar, instead of having to drag all the way down.
Anyone know? Don't think it matters, but I'm on Meanrom 1.4 with S-Off.
THANKS
When CM9 or 10 is available to us you can enable tablet mode and it will place your notification bar on the bottom.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
You can just flick the notification bar down, you don't have to drag it the full length of the screen. All it takes is about the width of the bar itself to send it down or back up. I know that's not an answer to your question, but it's an option.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Figure I'd bump this rather than start a new thread. I'd also love to be able to have the notification bar at the bottom of the screen, within easy reach of my thumb without requiring me to fumble with the phone. Is there any sort of standalone mod that will do this while I'm waiting for ParanoidAndroid to eventually (hopefully) make its way to the EVO LTE.
There is a WIP paranoid android ROM in the original development section. Works great and loving the ROM.

Well hey look at that! Thanks for the heads up -- I must've completely missed it.
You could also use a custom launcher and set the 1 finger pull-down to open the notification menu. Though trying to reach the settings and clear button are still impossible unless you have fingers like ET.

Yeah - I've already got it so that it pulls down with a quick swipe. My problem is the location of the Power Controls and the Clear button.
I tried PA on my phone but I didn't like the implementation; it's much better on my n7. Even at the biggest settings, the notification panel is just too small on the Evo.
All I really want is a perfect vertical mirror of the notification bar as it is now. In other words, still full screen, it just swipes upward and all the buttons are at the bottom of the screen. I'm actually a little surprised it's not an existing mod / feature, considering how many massive phones there are now and how many of us don't have spindly alien fingers.
