I've searched around and can't find an answer so it would be great if someone could help or point me in the right direction.
When you in the app menu/app list on the e3d its a page scroll, no more no less... with the og evo it was a smooth scroll and speed determined by strength of the finger slide.... anyway to get that on the evo3d?
Thanks!
That's because the 3vo is Gingerbread and the Evo was Froyo. If you upgraded your Evo to GB than its app drawer would behave the same as the 3vo.
gotcha, that makes sense. well, anyway to get that scroll back??
It is sense 3.0. No way to change it as of now. Not sure if a custom rom will do it either once full root is achieved. Best thing to do is use another launcher like launcher pro, adw, etc. You will lose all your sense Widgets tho. Only way around it right now

You can hit menu in the app drawer and use a list type with a smooth scroll and scroll bar

Maybe if you upgraded to Mikfroyo or another Sense 2.1+ ROM. The stock update didn't do this, it's because of Sense 3 not Android 2.3...
when we get full root, it will be possible to diable the "pagination" in the apps list.
a patch for that has been available on Synergy rom for the Evo 4G, and could very possibly be ported to the Evo 3D

Is there anyone attempting to port sense 2.1 out there? Not trying to be a rush but we got so few roms and a few just outright suck.

How do they suck? We have Stock sense froyo, cm6, cm7. And all of these are very stable roms

Can you tell me how different is Sense 2.1 from Sense 2.0?

Ditto, I fail to see how they suck. We have a wide variety of roms that are all really nice. Sense 2.1 would just be filling a very specific niche.
Well for one, HTC messages app does not organize messages right. Two, they're all really bland and devoid of any elegance we novices cannot add. Three, we have such a low number.

OK, so you dislike the HTC message app. We have 2 different versions of CyanogenMod for the Aria; CM 6.1 is an ASOP Froyo ROM and CM 7.0 is an ASOP Gingerbread ROM Neither one of these has a trace of HTC Sense in them.
The beauty of Android is that the Market Place is full of apps and themes that even novices can use to customize the phone to your hearts content. I suggest you get more familiar with exactly what can be done to customize your phone and quit relying on someone else to customize a ROM for you.
Well actually I like sense, but the messages app kills the joy of it. I had cm7 and I enjoyed it. My only problem is it is so bland. Even with customization. If there was a messages app fix, I'd be happy enough.

It does not fix the sms problem. I always used it on cm7 but it doesn't fix my sense issue.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Try handcent, it fixed my sms issues. The messaging app was the only thing I had a problem with on sense roms.
The one thing that keeps me coming back to MIUI is that I love the "in-call dialog" screen and it's features. I love it so much that I am willing to forgo 4G / 3D to get it.
Is there a way to port this over to be used on a Sense rom?

How about you just get exdialer and download that skin. You can find the app on the market or over at the android app thread

Awesome man. Exactly what I was looking for!
Question though. How do I set up the system so the exdialer handles inbound calls? Wouldn't that still default to the Sense dialer?

So what happened to the scrollable wall papers the old android use to have ?i have to use go launcher to get it back?
Was this something another company buzzkilled HTC about it ?I've always wanted to know wtf happen to that because that's actually what caught my eye at first with ios vs android

Yeah the sense is pretty good it just looks dull to me I guess until we get ics it will still look like android 0.9 lmfao joking
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
my argument with sense has always been simply this... it is a good platform, but it is just BOGGED by apps and widgets that hog space on the device. I don't need a billion different weather wallpapers, calendar widgets, music widgets, bookmark widgets, message widgets, etc... leave all that garbage out, let me download extra stuff that i want, and give me more dedicated space in the data/app partition.
i absolutely love the lockscreen UI, though. and the interaction you can have with it.
I have not rooted my EVO LTE yet. But I installed ADW EX for now and can't stand the menu button on the bottom. It takes up too much space.
I'm not a Sense fan and was hoping version 4.0 was better, but but after a couple of days I still prefer pure Android. Unfortunately I can't figure out why HTC and others are adding permanent home, and back and recent buttons when ICS looks better without them.
Even when I root and install CM9, for example, I'll have a huge menu button that takes up too much space.
Anyone see what I'm talking about?
What can we do about it?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Man I installed go launcher and I'm wondering the same exact thing. I upgraded to this phone to have a bigger screen than my s2 and I can't even do that without sense..
Does anyone know how to get rid of that menu vertical ... at the bottom?
I think an option is to use Apex or Holo launcher. They seem to be better suited for ics. Just saw a video review of it here http://goo.gl/cykps
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Another option is Nova Launcher. It is a true ICS launcher that is really slick and and does away with the three dot menu.
There is a mod that could be flash to remove menu bar and remaps it. Have you guys tried it?
Sent from my EVO using XDA
If you flash cm9 they remapped the buttons that crap is gone, it's running way better than sense also. Just a few minor issues.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
But is there an official CM9 out for the evo? One thing I'm not liking is the 1gb ram and sense. Sense is still too heavy for 1 gb ram. Sometimes it takes 15-20 seconds to load the sense launcher.
I bought apex pro. Better, but when I jump to different apps then hit the home button, sometimes it takes a few seconds to load the launcher.
That just tells me memory is running out somewhere (sense).

OP, just to clarify, when you unlock and run CM9 , you WON'T have the big long menu bar. Even on sense, if you're rooted you can get rid of it.

+1 on Nova.
Running Fresh 1.0 with Nova launcher, no lag but never really had any of the Sense 4.0 reload issues that some talked about anyway. Figured it was just the GS3 people trying to troll but maybe a bad batch of cells went out too..
Anyway, NOVA is sick! Setup the way you want, gives you better visual then GO etc (IMO) and great on footprint (memory). Works very well and as the other user stated, its native to ICS anyway. Give it a shot, blows the doors off anything else I tried and no lag anywhere..
Fresh is great too IMO, there are some great multitasking tips using the ROM toolbox, adjusting heaps etc..works well also,

What you say would be a solution for my discontent. I'm going to root soon and will remove some of the sense bloatware, but removing the menu also interests me. Regarding CM9 once it's officially supported ill be on board.
I bought apex and almost bought nova instead. They both look interesting.

Just to let you know the menu button on the bottom shows because those apps having been optimized to ICS, yes after 7-8 months and developers still doing the same, thats the reason you dont see any system apps doing that, cause their optimize, I wish developers would tho

So it's just a matter of time before more apps are optimized? It is very annoying...
tried nova launcher today it's great!

Another option I wouldn't mind would be to hack the recent apps button to make it think it's the menu button. I'm used to long pressing the home button anyways. I think the Sgs3 is like that.

I'm using Go Launcher right now, and I'm pretty satisfied. Is there any better theme app than this? what apps do you use for your theme?
I really like go sms pro and a few others They make a lot of decent apps, all highly customizable. I used go launcher before I got CM9. As for others? Idk.

I used Go with my Droid X and Liberty and loved it. Since this is my first HTC I've been giving sense a try, but the thing that drives me nuts is the home screen only sits vertical, where as Go works either or.
I never did theme mine, the craziest i got was enabling some of the cool page transition graphics. I'm starting to lean toward Go again, esp if i can get the sense clock/weather 4x1 widget. I have to say i love that thing a lot.

Being only vertical is what drives me nuts about Sense. If there was a way for the homescreen to be auto orientation, then Sense would be all I need.

Same with me, that's a waste of space. Apex launcher doesn't have that black menu bar. Not sure about other launchers.
I used it in the past but found it "choppier" then other options. ADWLauncher EX is my go-to nowadays. never had a problem with it.
I'm trying it right now. It seems to be the only one that I can find that offers a 5 column app drawer and allows resizable widgets for free.
It seems pretty fast, there is choppiness every now and then but that is usually when I'm running other stuff at the same time.
The biggest downside is the Honeycomb menu bar. I emailed the developer about this issue, hopefully they will take care of it since it is a fairly simple fix. If some of you like it too (except for the menu bar), I'd encourage you to email them and complain. The more complaints the higher the chances of a fix. [email protected]
I tried most launchers and the one i like the most is Nova Launcher.
