I looked through the forums and couldn't find a good answer. I really like the bottom sense dock in one of the older roms that I used and wanna use that to replace the bottom htc dock that I have on right now....(the app drawer phone and widget sense bar at the bottom). Is there any way I can switch them out?

There may be a simpler way I'm unaware of, off the top of my head, but you could set up LauncherPro Plus to look like it. It's not that far off the way it comes already.

Hey everyone. I was wondering if there was a method to change the icon set in Touchwiz 4.0 (yes im rooted) to something else other then what they have as stock.
And furthermore, ARE there any icon sets out there? I saw a couple of cool looking screens in the post your screenshot thread, but i'm not sure if that was because they were using some different launcher.
Thanks,

I am also interested in this. I really like touch wiz ui and all the features but i strongly dislike the childlike icons. Is there anyway we can change the icons without changing launchers?
I was wondering if we can have the
HTC Sensation XE Lock screen (with the circle to launch)
on the Samsung Galaxy S ll
The HTC lockscreen is cool. Just get the app Agilelock. It duplicates it perfectly. Only issue i found is right when you install, it pops up a message that you cant read, unless you can read some form of chinese. Hit the right button. The left button will download something.

They probably used a theme (with a custom launcher). I think launcher themes change entire icon sets. Other than that, idk.

Admittedly, samsung's touchwiz (and the little dock of apps) is kind of amazing. The dock that pops from the bottom is quite handy. Anyone thought of adding this interface on their custom rom?
It would be pretty hard because TouchWiz like other UI's are deep in the system.

insert dock using wizz bar app in HC....nothing big...iths there in market.... and except for that htc is better in terms of lockscreen , weather etc ....
I use "Circle Launcher" Its a configurable dock widget available on the market. I think its much better
Funny, the first thing I do when I get a Samsung is install a launcher.

Hmmm... tried looking for "wizz bar app" from the android market but no luck. But I do agree that HTC is better! It's just that when I tried a galaxy tab 8.9 (which I am thinking of getting as a replacement for my HTC Flyer) I kind of appreciated the dock that pops up from the bottom bit of the tab!
Is there a mod that would let me just have one homescreen when using Sense as my launcher?
I know I can do it with other launchers like Launcher Pro (which I have used 99% of the time on my OG Evo). I've seen mods/tweaks that let you change the # of homescreens but the minimum I've seen is 3.
I really prefer having just one homescreen and I'd like to see that happen in Sense. I've been poking and searching around but I haven't stumbled on anything yet.

If you press home button again from the main screen to the view with all your screens, you can hold down each and drag it up to the X and remove them.
I feel like such a noob haha. Ok down to one homescreen now, but can I disable the scrolling? It doesn't make sense (lol) to be able to scroll the screen to the same homescreen over and over.

Don't know how/if you can do that.
Mikeys rom has the spinning top mode removed. Isnt there an option in leedroid tweaks to disable it? Havent used sense in a long ass time so i dont remember. There should be other roms with it removed.
leedroid tweeks does not appear to have any settings like this.
What rom you using?

MidnightRom 1.2.7
I'm actually on an Evo V with Virgin Mobile, but it's the same phone as the 3D.
It's weird that I'm even trying to do this. I WAS using LauncherPro which has always been my preferred launcher. I'm not sure if it's a problem with this rom when using LP or what, but I've noticed that frequently enough when I would return to the homescreen from an app that there would be a black bar the size of the status bar right underneath the status bar, like blank space. It would stay there until I did something like go to the app drawer and then return home.
It doesn't seem to occur when using Sense, so I'm seeing if I can tweak Sense to my liking.
Same deal for me using LP.
It hasn't been updated since March. Hopefully it hasn't been abandoned.
sudo passwd root
Oh well it's at least good to know it's not just happening to me. I thought maybe there was something off in this rom that might be causing the problem, but looks like it could be an issue with LP if you experience it too.
Try adw. I personally recommend nova or apex though. Lp was my go to when i had a hero. Havent used lp in almost a year now.
Yeah it's a LP bug. Does it real bad if you use the google search widgit. I've tried every launcher out there, and LP is still my favorite. So, hopefully it will get an update.

So I just converted from the iWagon to this beauty. LOVING the IR receiver for my TV and the UI for program tuning! MAN oh Man. I actually had a moment where I thought to myself I may be too stupid or old for this phone (I'm 28 har har). It's worlds above iPhone.
Speakers are amazing as well!
However....
I also own a Nexus 7 and I'm not sure if it's because my N7 is running 4.2 JB or what but there are some features that are sorely missed.
Love the dual status bar swipe (swipe left side of top bar and you get progam specific notifications, swipe right side and you get system settings type notes). Also missing is the widget for ANY OTHER EMAIL other than Gmail. Gmail has a nice 3x3 scale-able widget where you can view (and scroll) recent emails, however there doesn't seem to be one for OTHER email address such as Outlook or Yahoo. My N7 has this widget and my co-workers have it on their Note 2's. May be an HTC thing.
Also, I really love the visual style of Sense 5 and the information flow screen is pretty great. BUT, I feel that the Nova Launcher better suits my needs for the Dock icons. I want to be able to have 6 or 7 icons (phone, sms, music, chrome, camera, mail, apps) on the dock at all times. Sense 5 doesn't let you customize it. Annoying especially because I use Chrome rather than the stock browser.
I wish there was some way to have the Sense 5 flow style combined with the good parts of Nova Launcher... Anyone know of a way to do that? If there was a way to combine both seamlessly, I would be STOKED.
Anyways, needless to say I love this frackin thing. Can't wait to see what people come up with for personal customization.

You can customize the dock. You have to open the app drawer then pull one of the ones off the dock and then add chrome. It's kinda stupid that you can only change them by opening the app drawer (as you know they just come back of you remove them while on the homescreen)

Hmm interesting. I see what you mean. So weird it has to go through app drawer... Still doesn't solve the 6-7 icons on Dock though...
i stopped using sense a few hours after i got the phone and went back to nova launcher. blinkfeed was cool for a few minutes but i dont see using it in my daily life. i also miss having drop down toggles for things like wifi but i installed widgetsoid for that. if sense were more customizable and less clunky i may have considered keeping it but nova just does everything i want and more.

^^This..is exactly why I switched to using Nova again. I like being able to customize my stuff. I do miss the drop down toggles as well. That is my only true gripe about this phone.
Nova user too. I switch between the two and have Sense as default coz I'm still liking Blinkfeed. I don't mind the folders on the dock coz I can always switch to Nova.

for me apex enhances my experience with the one,,, don't get me wrong i love sense 5 but apex gives me much more flexibility

you can set a shortcut to blinkfeed using nova launcher. just go to shortcuts > activities > HTC sense. thats what i did and i deleted all the additional screens so it just goes to blinkfeed. after youre done with looking at blinkfeed then you just press the home button to go back to nova.

I have it the other way around. Sense is default, placed nova app on dock. Tapping Home takes me back to Blinkfeed then tap dock for Nova when I'm done with Blinkfeed

I have it set up the other way, but your way may even be better. Kind of like using blinkfeed as a lock screen, not really but like a landing screen.

I guess since JB came out TW Launcher edits are more difficult. Found a few threads where people were trying to do something similar but couldn't figure it out. It's possible to edit the grid layout, removing the dock label, and whether or not you want wallpaper scrolling, but couldn't find much on the other stuff. Probably would need a lot of smali code editing.
Very curious: why so adamant about sticking with TW? It's really not that special and besides the TW widgets, it's easy to replicate and typically be better at all the other stuff. It's not like it's more smooth or has many (any?) really special features than one of a dozen other good replacements don't have...
