[theme] htc sense over ics - Atrix 4G Themes and Apps

I know a lot of people who love how smooth and good looking Htc Sense looks and there's a couple of ways to accomplish that.
1) Launcher Pro Plus

This video will teach you about launcher pro plus and the people widget which looks exactly like the one in sense
2) Sense Clock
The main identifier of Htc phones is the giant flip clock with the animated weather
2 apps needed
Weather & Toggle widget ($1.99)
Weather Widget Forecast Addon (free)
There are a couple of skins you can install and you will have the sense clock see video

3) Custom Rom
Most people on XDA are rooted and obviously somebody has created a custom rom to flash
Look around in your phone's general forums and search for HTC and some sort of rom will come up, there will be directions on how to flash it and everything.
If you have any questions just PM me happy sensing!

[Q] Iphone theme for Wildfire

Hey guys, i was wondering how i could get this Iphone look for my Wildfire.
I can't buy anything online so it needs to be a download.
This is what i'm looking for -> htc wildfire(IPHONE THEME) on youtube u can find a video about it.
Hope you can help me find it !
another thread explains it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890929&highlight=iphone
I think that the best setup that looks like Iphone UI is compiling:
1)Go Launcher with Classic Theme
2)Go Dialer
3)Go Contacts
4)Desktop Visualizer 2x1 widget
Also you can use5) Iphone Style icons like Suave for example.
6)For the lockscreen I recommend you using widgetlocker with iphone theme and dclock.
Everything is available on the Market!
I think if you use all the above it will be looking like an Iphone..!!

News and Weather widget ?

Looking for the files for the stock news and Weather widget ? Running ADW ex launcher, and it doesn't show it for some reason ? Can I install those separately ?
To me ADW, is a must have on the EVO-3D, because it allows for customizing the amount of rows of icons, and having 5 rows high of apps is a must on the higher resolution of the 3VO, because stock, with just 4 rows seems ****ed up, like to much space between widgets.
Sent from my EVO-3D waiting for Myn's ROM
UPDATE;
I had an old apk from my EVO 4G, was clear/transparent News & Weather widget. I threw that onto my 3VO SD/Card, and all set
I'm also using an alternative launcher (Zeam Launcher) and would like to use some of the HTC widgets, yet those are only available when using Sense. What apk did you use (for example to get the weather widget back)? I imagine I can find it on the webs?
Does anyone have the stock non transparent News and Weather widget apk ? Now I don;t like the totally clear background, makes it harder to read, I prefer the black background, or even better would be a semi-transparent with dark grey background, sort of see through.
Anything out there ?

CM7 with scrollable widgets?

I am trying to get away from sense for obvious reasons. I'm only missing the friendstream, news, twitter scrollable widgets. Shopping revealed Pure Messenger/News widget as a viable option. Although to be useful to me it needs to be scrollable.
-Running CM7 nightlies #130
-ADW Launcher stock with CM7
-Verizon Droid Incredible 2
-Rooted, obviously.
Pure Messenger states that ADW is supported, but scrollable widgets must be enabled and it isn't currently. I find no setting for scrollable widget enable and the documentation for this version (latest) doesn't list it. However a previous version had a setting from what I find online. Maybe the non CM7 version?
Anyone have a solution for pure messenger or alternative app? I'm certain many people running CM7 desire these widgets so there must be a solution but a search didn't reveal anything within 6 months.
Note: I was having this same issue with other phones, and other launchers [read: go launcher, launcher pro], so this should apply to everyone. Including me when I buy the Galaxy Nexus upon release.

I love colorize widgets and android pro widgets (both very similar and have a nice timeline feature with the paid versions) adw does support scrolling widgets but I'm not sure if you need the ex version for that(that's the version I have) I also don't see a setting for it but both my colorize widgets and android pro widgets scroll automatically
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch
I gave up on the Pure Widgets and went with Colorize. Scrolling works fine and I got the paid version and it looks really nice.
I thought the Pure Widgets were the most popular which would lead to less bugs and better support but obviously not.
Now the only problem is Colorize doesn't have a RSS feed selector or news widget like sense but I think I can get around it with customizing Google RSS feeds.
Thanks for the reply.

Ok, somebody should explain the need for scrollable widgets, or indeed most widgets, to me.
You swipe homescreens to get to the one you want, e.g Calender, Twitter.. and then you scroll it to find what you want etc...
Why not just open the Twitter or Calender app instead?
This sums up my pet peave with Android really. So much bloat. So much unnecessary carp. Why do one thing well when you can do it three different ways, badly.
I'm still not sold on the idea of multiple homescreens, in fact i'm as perplexed by the notion now as i was three years ago. Android has an app drawer. It has shortcuts for every app within. Open app drawer, select shortcut, use app! Why would i need shortcuts all over my homescreen?
And while i'm busy derailing the thread with my rant, what's with the honking great clocks and weather on the homescreens? There's a clock in the status bar and the weather is right outside. Use a window!
Obviously i'm in the minority here so i'll just crawl quietly back into my minimalistic hole. Good to get it off the chest though!

[Q] The one sence app I like

Okay from playing around with ROMs on my 4g (I haven't rooted my 3D yet), I have learned that I prefer AOSP rather than Sence. For now I just loaded ADW because I like the 5 icon dock. However there is one widget I REALLY like, the clock. I know there are a couple on the market that have the time and weather, but the thing I really liked about the HTC clock is that in addition to time and weather, it had alarms, timers and countdown timers. I know I can get an app for the alarms, timers and countdown, but I like the HTC and I like it being all in the one widget.
I guess what I am asking is, is there a way to get (through a similar app/widget or custom ROM) HTC clock working with a 5 icon dock bar?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No need to switch ROM's.
Sure download "fancy widgets" it has a clock widget just like the stock one then download "alarm clock extreme" and you will have all your features back. Although I think you can still use the htc clock app without the widget. I currently use no sense and ADW with fancy widgets and the stock clock.apk that came with the phone. Fancy widgets even let you assign an app to open when clicking on any of the sections of the widget. You can customize all kinds of visual stuff on it also. Hope this helps.

[Q] Sense Weather Widget withOUT flip clock??

Hi there!
I've tried googling but I can't seem to find anything. I'm wondering if there are Sense weather widgets available WITHOUT the flip clock. I hate the flip clock. HTC has a strange fetish for clocks that I don't quite understand. A digital clock in Roboto font in the upper right corner is absolutely adequate.
Can I kang the widgets from another ROM? There are only 3 weather widgets included in the Rezound stock and ICS Sense ROMs.
I have Fancy Widget Pro, but I also use the Sense weather lockscreen, so it's a bit redundant to be using up 2 resources for the same thing.
Oh forgot to mention. There is 1 weather widget that doesn't have a clock, but it's a massive 4x4 widget. Bleh. I'm aiming for 4x1 or maybe 4x2 ...
Well there aren't any that are strictly sense but Beautiful Widgets (market.android.com/details?id=com.levelup.beautifulwidgets&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5sZXZlbHVwLmJlYXV0aWZ1bHdpZGdldHMiXQ..) and WMD-Weather (market.android.com/details?id=soft.wmd.wmdweather&feature=search_result) are pretty nice. I personally really like Beautiful Widgets but it does cost a couple dollars.
Hope this is somewhat helpful.
BTW there is a WMD-Weather Lite for free.
