I really like the sense weather animations, but I love having 5 rows of icons on my launcher, like launcher pro, and adw.
I'm going to post in that thread, and ask if the dev can make a version for the shift, but maybe one of our very capable devs could work on this, too....

I'm assuming you're looking for this mod on Gingerbread build? I know the MikRom v 1.1 had this for froyo build.

Yes, I'd like to see this for gingergread. I just wish HTC made this an option in Sense. It's not like the screen sizes they are using, or the resolutions they use won't easily support it.
Not 100% sure but I think you have to edit the build.prop file and change lcd screen density. I've done it before but it broke some animations from showing up right

Ok so we all know you cant actually get HTC sense ported to the atrix but I came up with a combo of apps that work as a perfect mirror of it.
Launcher: He launcher- use this to add the Sense style lancher bar. Lots of options for sense style
Wallpapers: Pyramid wallpapers- Includes all your favorite HTC wallpaers
Clock: Fancy widgets pro- Tons of sense style clocks, H7C is closest to stock
Sense Animations: Fancy widgets Pro-Enable it by clicking on the weather icon on the clock>menu>configure>Advanced>Enable forcast animation and enable unlock animation.
All apps are property of their owners I take no credit for design or funtion... just the pack of them together
Wow I was just checking here to see if I could find this. Taking this inspire back to exchange for the atrix

good to hear!
Nice work! So how long til the Sense port is complete? An ETA would sure be nice!
I have a confession guys... I traded my atrix for an htc desire hd plus 100 dollars yesterday. I have only had the desire hd for 1 day and I'm already trading back to the atrix. for those tempted there is no going back to a normal phine after using the atrix.

Haha I know I went back to my heavily customized nexus one (temporary brick) and honestly I was a big fan and didn't like to think it wasn't as fast as newer devices but I notice it in apps I notice it in swype... I know I said this with my n1 but this phone with more mature software will last me for a long time.

I noted a bug in the fancy widgets FAQ that states you have to click the screen once after unlocking to stop the animation before the screen will respond to other clicks.

Has anyone else noticed that some of the apps in the is missing in the home drawer. I have at least 2, Angry Birds Rio and Samurai 2, which are installed but not shown.
There has been a little piece of wondering if I would have been better off getting a HTC instead of the Atrix... But now with big thanks to this thread, I have everything wanted in my 1st Android phone... And a hole lot more.
Now if I can find the weather widget or live wallpaper that has the windsheild wipers when it's raining, I'll be the happiest newbie on XDA.

What about the status bar? huh?
I looked for a long time for a working (not blurry and centered) stock Gingerbread launcher 2 for the Atrix. I decided to look on the Evo 3D section just because the Evo 3D has a qHD display like the Atrix does. Plus I really like the 2.3 aosp look the best with Cyanogenmod, and you need the launcher to complete it.
Here is the post
One thing about this though if you are running Cyanogenmod, unlike the other stock Gingerbread launchers with the 3D scroll not working or the ADW launcher that comes with Cyanogenmod, this will not change to the theme. If you apply the "Cyanbread" theme, the launcher will stay to it's green color style. ALSO ignore the screenshots that eugene373 has on his post, it looks exactly as it would on the Nexus S. Don't forget to thank the op!
how would we apply this? Tenfar's CWM? I thought it was only compatible with with Sensation or Evo 3D.

Nice find! Thanks for this.
Whats up with the transitions for the amaze? Where can you turns those off? I mean I've looked just about everywhere; the square transition from page to page is annoying. Any way to turn it off or change it? Thanks
You can't change the page transitions on Sense, if it's too much to put up with, you could always use a third party launcher such as Go Launcher Ex or ADW Launcher Ex

Meh...this is one of the things i hate about sense...
HTC needs to step it up with sense. yeah they got sense 4.0 now but thats probably exclusive to the V X and S from the One series, until someone ports the roms over...I don't like the lockscreen, the app page, transitions, bland everything..its so bad. it's aosp for me or 4.0...but since i like ics ill deal with it for now... but it doesnt even feel like ics ;\

With the hype about Apex supporting themes, you would think that there would be at least one out by now. hehe
It says it supports themes from ADW and Go, etc... But all it really supports are the icon packs and wallpapers, which you could already do with ROM Toolbox, etc...

I don't consider a red wallpaper and a slight red tinge to the stock icons to be a "theme"...
if i saw right it will support themes from other launchers so just search themes for those. the one i used is an ics one. just search ics and its the one with the android sandwich. it works for all other launchers so i assume it works for apex

On most of the other launcher's themes, it just imports the icons and wallpaper... it is very limited in what it can do. Personally, the theming in general is kinda weak. Icons, some colors and things is about all that really changes. None of them truly theme the OS, IMHO

True, I was just hoping that Apex would be able to offer something other than Icon and Font packs, which we can get through Recovery, ROM Toolbox, etc...
Hi Guys,
I have made several themes which are specifically made for Apex.It's just that Google Play Store Search Engine sucks so it is hard to find themes.
Anyways, You can find my Apex Themes here

I've always wondered if it was possible to use HTC's widgets (specifically the clock and weather widgets) on CM9 or any other custom rom for that matter. I've always been limited to only using Sense custom roms because I really enjoy HTC widgets. Thanks!
Sense widgets only work on Sense ROMs
though there are similar widget skins available for Beautiful Widgets and for Fancy Widgets

Similar does not equal same though. I really like the HTC Sense clock and weather widget. Its truly beautiful. And its truly a flip clock with the flip animation. The ones from Beautiful Widgets and Fancy Widgets don't compare imo. They don't look as good and they don't do the animations...

even more so with the Sense 4.0 version being much better than the older ones, unfortunately, it's one of the trade-offs of switching launchers, or to AOSP ROMs.

I believe that Sense apps and widgets are proprietary and require libraries that are only found in Sense ROMS. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The problem is all sense widgets work off the sense framework and sense resources. That's what makes it difficult to port to a aosp Rom.

I was hoping to come back to this thread and see better news. So is it official? No HTC weather or clock on any other roms? HTC really messed up with the way they handle multitasking in my opinion. That is why I need to go to a different rom. I just want to take the clock and the weather with me
see the thing is. it wouldn't necessarily be all that difficult to port them over its just that they can't... their HTC's widgets not googles. there is weird licencing and such around it which is why you can't find anything that looks JUST like them in the market and why they have never been in aosp roms or in launcher other than the htc launcher that comes on htc phones.

So are you saying the creators of these roms may get sued by HTC if they included the clock and weather widget in there rom? Or are you saying it is impossible to find these widgets because they aren't a simple file or apk? Sorry if this is a basic question

both, they're APKs, but they're also 100% completely tied to HTC's Sense framework and files, so they're never gonna be found outside of a Sense ROM, and it's also why they're not available outside of the Sense launcher.

Sense is built DEEP into the ROM. You can't just rip a piece out of it and expect it to work
