So I finally decided on the Rezound tonight, and after several hours of toying with it... There is no Peep app anymore. It's in the system folder, and FriendStream updates Twitter and everything, but there's no standalone app anymore. Yes, Peep was really buggy, but I liked it. (On the Incredible, anyway.)
Can anybody shed some light on where it went?
Yeah for some odd reason, Peep doesn't appear in my application launcher either... The only way I've been able to access it is by placing the FriendStream widget on one of my homescreens, then clicking the right arrow ">" button to get into the Peep application.
if you install a 3rd party launcher can you see it? HTC blocks some apps in the drawer.

Tried ADW EX, and Go Launcher just now. Peep didn't show up, but it did show the Mirror app. Out of all the things HTC could have taken out to slim down Sense, and they drop a Twitter app and the flashlight? Not the best development choice.

No kidding lol. Flashlight would have been nice.
Folder organizer apps show those apps like peep, mirror, etc that aren't in the app drawer

Think they dropped those two because of people running them and then complaining about battery life?

Folder Organizer doesn't work for Peep. Just tried it and didn't see it.

Possibly. But they didn't remove Peep, they just removed the shortcut to it. So it'll still drain just as much battery. Like someone else said, you can get to it from the widget.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW
If anyone else cared about this quite as much as me, you can get a shortcut to peep by creating a shortcut to friend stream. Not the app, but a shortcut. Then you'll be able to select Twitter and it functions just like it used to.

Hm, I like TW4 itself.
But this lockscreen is just epic and I'd really like to have this O.O
Why is this in development? It should be in General/Questions.
Also like TekJoe already mentioned, get WidgetLocker from the market and install any of the thousand themes available for it. Also I believe the sense lockscreen comes preloaded with the app.
Sorry, did not know where to put it.
Is there the original lockscreen of the Sensation included?
But actually i don't want to buy anything...

Put this topic wherever you want to, but i used the search function in the S2 forum and there was no specific thread with this name, so i created this.
Agile Lock is nice. But it's not possible to use settings without buying it and it's kinda laggy...

A little laggy, but you can download some Apps to gain 300 points and get the full version free.
Don't download the app that gives you 100 points, it's infected.

Could you tell me which apps you downloaded?
I did not dare to download any app cause there was everything on japanese or chinese or whatever.
And you downloaded these apps and deinstalled it after that?
Edit:
Ok, i did it
Now it works fine! Still a bit laggy, of course, but i hope it gets better with few updates!
Thanks for Agile Lock!
But the music control is a bit stupid, i can't select where to show it on the lockscreen, right?
Always on bottom left corner... That sucks a bit...

Not possible currently. Miui has a lockscreen close to sense 3.0 but its not animated and feels blah compared to the real thing.
Hi guys was wondering if there is this app out there that can do the following...
You know when you swipe left or right you go to different windows from the home screen. Is there an app or something that wil allow you to swipe up or down from the homescreen to go to the window to the left x2 or to the right x2. I'm basically trying to find a way to get to my other windows in just 1 swipe as opposed to 2. It might not be much but I would much prefer it that faster if possible.
Anyone know of anything that can do this for me?
I use the "pinch and pick" method. (At least that's what I call it.)
Or hit the Home button twice (or just once if you're already on the Home screen).
That's an interesting idea but I would assume it would have to be built into the launcher you're using. Like home screen replacement Apps have swipe up for this and down for that but I haven't seen them have an option for swipe up for page x.

Try an app called Wave Launcher. It's not exactly what you described as what you're looking for but may be another solution, it's a fantastic app! Here's a link for you:

Will that all eat up my battery a lot if I'm running stock everything non-rooted?
I'm really enjoying being non-rooted because surprisingly everything just WORKs. Battery life is great as I can get an entire 12-13 hour day out of it before it goes red.
Also...why Go Launcher? When I use to have it on my old Evo 4g whenever I would press the "home button" it would close Go Launcher and go back to the stock launcher...also...I have to use their own Friend widget (people widget) if you use it right? Or has that changed? When I used Go Launcher before the People widget I use to use from Sense disappears.
I'm completely stock.... Just download Wave Launcher and try it, if you like it then excellent, if you don't then uninstall... It's a free app so you lose nothing trying it. Good luck!

Stock unrooted, too. GO Launcher (like any alternate home app) doesn't allow the use of Sense Widgets but they have an alternative to most of them and the widgets are themeable. Battery usage is no more than usual and if you REALLY wanna squeeze all the juice you can from a charge, check out Juice Defender. And why GO Launcher? It takes the best parts of all the paid launchers (ADW, Launcher Pro, etc), improves on them, adds in even more functionality, offers tons of themes or the ability to create your own, and it's free! I use GO SMS, GO Contacts and GO Dialer, too. The GO Weather is borked though lol dunno why

Hey guys, I was wondering if it was possible to add more categories to the sense 3.0 app drawer.
I'm not sure if categories is the right word, but basically, when you open up the app drawer, at the really bottom there's a slider and icons for switching from all apps to frequent and to download.
Thanks!
I have to say I'm curious too, I'm sure there is a way to, since you can rearrange the "categories" when you longpress on them, and there's more space too (it looks like to add more) so Im almost certain there's a way...just haven't found it yet

Yea, that's what I figured too. They leave the space for it, but I can't figure it out!
Also, when you longpress stuff, it tells you you can drag to remove categories, but all of the stock ones aren't removable
Sent from my PG86100
Yea its a simple mod
But is there a way, to create any additional categories there? Like games, utilities and so on? having all the apps together without even being to organize them the way I want is very messy for me.

I am using this. Works great. Probably a 3 star app. What i did was i put all the apps in one folder so they didnt go across all my screens, then i put this app's short cut on my dock bar. Works great. Its just very none aesthetically pleasing. Could use some more customization, maybe some sorting or something like that.

You can customize it if you use the left click button at least somewhat.

I tried MIUI last night, I also installed this, but what I just ended up doing was removing this and put everything i didnt want on my homescreens in one folder and put that folder as the middle dock icon, and it basically works just like an app drawer, u can change the sorting to numerous options including by usage, which i thought was really cool.. the folder also has a neat open and close animation when u click it (when it is in the dock anyway). I always end up going back to some stock derived rom though, I just feel like I am losing features going to cyanogen or MIUI

If you hide apps in the MIUI settings and then use the altdrawer as an app drawer were you able to put shortcuts to the home screens? I'm not able to....

You would think someone coming here from the 3d would have it handy somewhere. To prevent someone from having to DL an entire ROM just to get it. I came from Evo 4g to here, so I'm not familiar with newts, and dont have any files from 3d forum.
Actually, I'll bet any Gapps package would have it, I would think. I just was surprised it didn't come stock. I use the widget on my main homescreen.

Genie widget = news and weather app.
This one can be installed like a normal data app. I renamed it so I would remember what it was since genie widget hardly gives any clue. Just download it to your sd card and click it and it will install like any other app. The menu key shows up on it as well which didn't work for me on my transformer Prime if I used the system/app version. Kind of hard to customize without a menu key. Not sure if that would be an issue on the EVO LTE but I didn't care to find out.
Although I am unsure if the HTC version had better customization or widgets than the stock google version which is what this is I believe. I only use it for the app. I would give credit to whoever posted it but I can't even remember where I got it. I used google search awhile ago to find it.
I actually have a couple that will install like a regular app as well. I'll post them tonight
I have one with no background and one with a smoke/transparent background.
I sent a PM to Newt and asked if he could help me get the one from his port to work on our phones..hoping he hooks us up.
Works, but when tapping on the weather screen for a hourly view, it has an error reading "Unfortunately, News & Weather has stopped". That feature was a big plus with this app, hope someone can figure out how to get that to work again.

You have force gpu rendering enabled on your phone. Settings>Developer options>Force GPU rendering.
Uncheck that and it will work.
Also, I'm not sure you know this but tapping the weather icon on HTC's weather clock widget that most people seem to keep on their homescreen brings up a screen with weather details and at the bottom there are tabs where you can look at the hourly conditions as well in a little more detail.
