Has anybody else noticed how undetailed the homescreen icons are on the Evo 3D? in the app drawer, they look as defined as they should be, but when seeing them on the homescreen (my example being Angry Birds Rio) they look really bad. Worse than on my 4G running CM7. and also, is there a way to natively take screenshots with Sense 3.0? Like how the G2x can by pressing home/power at the same time? I saw the feature on my friend's Inspire running a Sense 3.0 port

Im a big of how sense functions. However, I like the feature that helix has where one can place icons at the bottom and keep them stationery. is there any way one can edit rosie scroll to function like that? Ive seen an ad for the incredible, where the ui appeared to have a bottom dock with icons, but didn't see that when I went to verizon & checked it out for myself. Ive played around w/ other home replacements like helix and none of them were as stable as sense or helix. I guess what im asking for is a sense/helix hybrid w/ 3d launcher capabilities. If it were easy, im sure it would be done rt now.

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..
My phone shows 2 instances of HTC Sense in the Applications\Manage application\All. HTC Sense version 3.0.211533xx and HTC Sense version 2.0.2115xx. I can force stop both. But when i power off the screen, Sense 2.0 version restarts while Sense 3.0 stays stopped.
I was force stopping Sense to see if my ADW Launcher Pro EX's app drawing would scroll more smoothly. It does, really fast.
But curiously, when I power off the screen and power on, the Sense 3.0 lockscreen and weather animation greet you. Application manager shows only Sense 2.0 running. Meanwhile the app draw in ADW still scrolls really fast.
I am cornfuzed, how is this happening?
The Sense 2.0 runs the lockscreen stuff while 3.0 runs the main UI, I guess HTC thought ahead and did that so the fancy lockscreen would still function even when an alternative launcher is used and 3.0 is not running due to being unneeded.

Yes, that makes sense. I just don't remember that lockscreen being a part of 2.0. Maybe because I have been running No Lock all the time on previous EVO.

I just got a 16GB WiFi HTC Flyer. It's on stock GB 2.3.3 and using Sense 2.1 for tablet. I like to use live wallpapers, and I'm certain that the flyer can handle them, but when I swipe back and forth through homescreens, the wallpaper seems to pause in between screens. I don't know if this is because of Sense or if it's perfectly normal. Anyone else experience this problem and if so how did you fix it?
Mine too, evo 3d works fine.

I believe that this is a sense issue. If you have another launcher running and a live wallpaper the transition is smooth.
Out of curiosity, what LWP are you using?
Weather on both

I thought it may have something to do with Sense as well. I used launcher pro and tested the Sense photo blur LWP and the transition was smooth. I hope this issue is addressed in an update. It's not a huge deal but it does take away from the user experience.

I agree, its very hard not to notice it.
I believe it's because in newer versions of Sense (I think from 3.0 and above) there is a problem with the launcher can't detect the transitions or the screens' positions or something like that..
There are some wallpapers that say in the info part "not compatible with sense 3 devices"
Even in normal wallpapers you can notice that when you move from screen to another, the wallpaper remains still and doesn't show more of if you understand what i mean

Hi all!
Sometimes, when I switch from a Landscape app (a Video or a Web Page, for example) to the Sense desktop the sense widgets start to look like like streched, but specialy the Sense clock looks like the landscape sense clock of the Desire Z (for example), it's like the whole Sense want to go Landscape, but something is forcing it
Does this happens to anyone here or is a bug of my phone? there's any way to put the sense desktop in Landscape?
PD: If you don't understand me just look at the clock on the screnshot I attached
That's an occasional problem with the Froyo Sense ROM, I have it too!
There is no known way to auto-rotate Sense's launcher. I don't know if some internal files were meant to be hidden, applied to the HTC Legend, or is just there for all Froyo Sense phones at the time of release, but you can interpret that our Legends might have been planned to accomodate a slide-out keyboard, as well as a WiMAX radio.
