is there anyways to get rid of the annoying(in my opinion) 3d transition that is in every stock rom?
or at least a mod that i can flash of some kind. I prefer just regular transition like the og4g.
Thnx guys

What type of transitions are you talking about? Opening and closing apps? Swiping between homescreens?

Swiping between the screens. Anyway to get rid of the Cube transition?
oh ok i thought u meant transitions as in how menu's and such come in and out the screen.
There are plenty of mods to change that lol
but as for from screen to screen i have no idea. I would LOVE to get rid of it as well as would some others i bet but i don't think its possible.
but what do i know im no dev
I also tried to get rid of this anoying and useless thing. Along with the carousel effect.
I ended up simply installing ADWLauncher EX and ported over all my homescreens, though you'll loose HTC Sense UI (which i don't miss at all anyways..)

Well, is there any program that makes Android menu "sideways" instead of down? List is soo long, would be much easier just to scroll sideways.
If this has been asked before, sorry, but couldnt find any when I searched
What menu specifically?

If you mean your application menu, i believe ADW launcher has a setting for this (or LauncherPro).. i forgot which one it exactly was, but i've seen it for sure with one of these
That of course, if you mean your application menu
Sorry, yes, application menu, but if I get adw or launcher.pro, do I have to get rid of sense then?

That...is a very good question.
I only used ADW or LauncherPro on non Sense builds. I honestly have no idea if they work with Sense too..

ADW launcher replaces the sense launcher... And it's the one that has the horizontal application scroller. There must be a way to do side scrolling though inside some app drawers like Launcher Pro and SenseUI.

Crap, don't want to replace Sense.
Anyone else maybe know this?
Sorry, but bump?
I have been trying a lot of android builds and I guess that the only place where I came across the horizontal scrolling option were in non-sense ( ) builds. I prefer sense too... so its a shame. Hoping someone can help with this one ..
Well, I don't know about the rest of you but I enjoy the functionality of MySense in certain respects. My dislikes are not enough to get me to jump to an alternative launcher but they are enough to make me want changes.
In my eyes.... two things will make Espresso aesthetically pleasing and more functional. The first being redirecting/replacing the My Faves with Browser or messenger. And the second... changing the drawer icon to the FROYO blocks icon.
Now, I don't have a full grasp on what would be involved in doing so, but common sense or my lack of understanding perhaps tell me those 2 icons and the 1 remapping can't be too involved. To anyone out there ready and willing to take this on... I will volunteer to be the guinea pig for testing. Me and Nandroid are best friends.
Looking forward to it.

Lol, not forgotten... that is still on my list in the quest of a perfect MT4G. I am going to make that one my personal project. I figured it is in my best interest to enlist some "qualified" help for the Espresso Project.
lol the things you mentioned above are my exact problems with the stock launcher as well everything else i like as of lately ive jus been using a combination of iced glacier and ADW to get sumthing almost similar to wat you discribed but in all i would love to see an actual rom that benifits both i too will be a tester for anyone who decides to take on this project and good luck

i agree ADW doesnt have any real widgets so it does put u at a loss. if sumone could successfully merge the two launchers and have the benifits of both we would have a fricken great rom for this phone. i tried to flash the apks from the glacier rom onto the ADW launcher but it freezes the homescreen i cant get the widgets to successfully adapt to the ADW protocols which puts me back to sqaure one lol
what is root?
I turned my phone on and now the screen glows???? wtf your rom borkded it.... can I abd push ota or does the motherboard need fixing???? thanx in advance

Motherboard for sure... I will PM you my address. Sent me your phone and I will fix it when I get a chance.
-iced glacier,
-adw
-pure calendar widget
-stock twitter app & widget
-simiclock (has weather now)
-quick settings for the best customizable power and brightness controls and can be launched from tapping simiclock when set up that way, also can be added to status bar
-circle battery (just looks cool and clean)
All of this together makes me very pleased with this phone. I have test out sooooo many different apps for these functions and various roms on other phones.. just my taste and opinion.. but give them a try if you havent.
Love the new higher resolution on the 3VO, but one thing I have noticed it seems too tall for only 4 icons top to bottom, seems like it could almost handle 5 rows tall ?
Could custom Rom allow that change ?
Sent from my EVO-3D waiting for Myn's ROM
Not even a custom rom, Launcher-Pro ADW_Launcher etc has the ability to handle additional icon rows/cols if I remember right.

correct, i love the new sense 3.0,but dumped their home launcher on first day for ADW
i now have 6 rows of icons with the 3D resolution, and 5 columns of icons (compared to the 4row 4col with sense)

I will have to try that. I really need more than 4x4 on this phone.
I looked up ADW launcher in the Market, all the recent comments say it force closes and freezes up a lot ?

HOnestly I find ADW to be crap in comparison to Launcher Pro.
ADW i've always had issues with from 2 years ago even till now.

Does it effect the new Sense lock screen ?
Or take up more memory slowing down the phone at all ?

effect in what way?
the only thing is, if you choose ADW as your launcher(or probably any other launcher), when you hit the personalize button, it wont do anything. Meaning you cant change the options for lockscreen and stuff.
I dont know how much memory ADW takes up, but I see no ill effect (plus we have more memory than previous evo 4G anyway)
It doesnt slow my phone down at all (had it on evo 4G didnt slow it down either)
HOWEVER, all you have to do is change back to the sense launcher, do your changes, then set ADW back to your standard launcher. Easy
I really suggest you try it if you want to truly customize your homescreen,its literally like about 100more features to ADW than the standard sense,even with it being 3.0
When I had my Evo 4G there was something you could flash on top of a custom ROM to allow 5x4 for sense so I'm sure it'll be possible eventually.
With ADW/AWD ( always get that wrong, sorry) I had my share of problems ranging from FC's (Force Close) every so often restarting the entire launcher.
But my #1 main issue with it happened no matter what ROM i'd be using. The icon bars would randomly disappear and would not re-appear till I reboot the phone. Even when I tried to restore backups of the launcher (build in feature) it wouldnt fix it till I reboot.
Never had that with Launcher Pro, and LP seemed cleaner all in all.
Both are good dont get me wrong, but in my personal experience one certainly was better than the other.

I use LPP and love it, got the 5x4 setup going on. its great.
I agree HTC kinda messed that up. It's okay for most widgets but definitely too much space for apps. And multicon (my saving grace on the EVO) looks messed up...

I put Launcher Pro on my 3VO and I have to say, I love my phone 100 times better. I was seriously not very impressed with this phone, but now that I have more control over everything, I love it. Get it!
Currently running Fresh and I would like to implement flattened 2D scrolling for sense, however I am a bit confused on how to do so. Would someone mind pointing me in the correct direction?
Also, is there a way to implement RCtweak on a rom without having to bake it in?
I'm assuming you mean to make the scrolling more like stock Android. I'm not sure there is a way to, since it would involve pretty heavy modification of the framework.
No thats not what I am referring too. If you look at the widgets on the home screen as you are scrolling you will see layers to the widgets. This while it looks nice cause a hit to FPS, which can be translated as perceived lag. Flattened scrolling removes layers of the widgets.

Youre talking about the 3d effect when moving from one screen to another. Unfortunately I've not seen that done yet. If you are rooted I recommend using Eternity rom 1.3.1. That rom seems to have taken care of the lag issue you are experiencing. It's what I use and you dont really need to overclock like i did unless you want everthing else smoother. See a video of my phone below.

I wanna say mike1986 was talking about taking this feature from sensation and using it on shooter in his next release of ARHD.

There was a 3D 3.0 Rom that had RCtweaks in it which allowed you to switch this option.
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.

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.
