bump. launcher confirmed working
Just looks like touchwiz to me
Almost all the launchers are similar to stock instead of a whole new os like sense

Either way, I'm into launchers, have about 7 installed on my phone and I switch back and forth. This one isn't ground breaking, but good for a change up here and there

Off topic but did not want to start a new thread. Have you tried the below launcher? Downloaded the one with fast corners n its pretty clean. Thought i'd mention since u like launchers.
I just unzipped and installed the APK.

I am currently running the OTA 2.1 rooted rom.. been liking it, but not LOVING sense anymore.. seems to just lag a lot.
Im trying to find a rom that has the following:
The HTC weather/clock widget. (i love this.. dont know why)
Working google maps/nav
working Live wallpapers with jcase's opengl patch.
working/non crashing google voice.
facebook integration / maybe friendstream?
flan lock screen (or working lock 2.0.. I found with sense and lock 2.0 it was always buggy/laggy when the phone would ring.. no matter how many times I tried to unlock it i would miss the call)
has anyone seen this all in a rom? would love some suggestions.

well you cannot get rid of sense and have the htc weather widget. there are vanilla roms (which removes ALL sense related items) but you would lose the weather you want. there is also a senseless theme you can apply to any rom to remove sense related stuff. errors i have seen with jcase's opengl patch mess up navi. i had lwp for a few days and removed it as it just eats away battery and does lag the phone up.
you can get the n1 lock screen on any ROM as all you have to do is delete the htclockscreen.apk and it will give you that. you just need to flash to all the differnt ROMS, make NAND backups of the ones you like and find one that fits you and then keep it. i flash almost daily as these devs keep putting sick ass ROMs out, but I am currently at aloyious v6 as i need nav and dont care for lwp. but he does have a version out that does have lwp and not nav. so you do have a choice.
So Far today I have flashed:
Vanilla Rom - didnt have the htc clock.. I really like that.. After reading some more I came across the same conclusion, if I want the htc clock.. I need sense.
loaded up jcase's patch for opengl.. ran wallpapers for about 20 min, and yep.. had enough... I guess I do really like sense?
EvilEris1.1 - google login bug - that was a show stopper for me, other than that it seemed fast.
Sensable 2.0 - Currently playing with and the only issue I have had so far is that the text in the dialer is grey and you can barely read it.
Im going to make a nandroid backup of this one and try aloyious v6
IS there a way to name the nandroid backups? it uses the date as the name. would love something a little more intuative.
Thanks for the response and the tips.
Yes, you can change the name. Just plugin your phone via USB and hit mount and then go to the NAND directory. There will be another dir and then just open that one and then all your NAND backups will be there. I name mine after each one as I cannot remember which ROM I flashed before which.
Also, dont forget to wipe data and dalvik when going back to a NAND backup.

Ok, cool.. I didnt know if it needed the DIR name to be the date in order to work.. I was working off a spreadhseet with
THIS DIR = THIS ROM
Sooo much easier now
Thank you again.
Seeing how the time is on the lockscreen and also in the not. bar, I decided that I could live without the flip clock taking up half of my home screen. Here's what I did.
Flashed Eris_Official 0.81T2
Flashed Senless patch
falshed Nexus One patch
flashed Nexus Launcher Wtih LP's patch.
Now I enjoy a mostly vanilla rom, with the HTC dialer, nexus launcher and live wallpapers and it's smooth as butter and bug free.

Was wondering if anyone tried this or found a smiliar fix for the stupid lockscreen blocking the wallpaper. I can tollerate or even appreciate much of everything else in this version of Sense, everything except my animated wallpaper getting blocked by this crap
try downloading from market two apps, one called no lock so u can disable the sense lockscreen then download an app called simply lockscreen, you can choose the transparency to what you want so your background will show thru, love it!
You can also use Root Explorer and delete the HTClockscreen.apk and ODEX file. You will have a transparent lockscreen with the stock ASOP sliders...
well i perma rooted phone thanx to visionary & deleted the HTCLockscreen apk & odex file.
yet I still get the lockscreen, even when i delete and immediately reboot.. THE HTCLOCKSCREEN APK & ODEX FILES COME BACK IN /system/apps !!
wtf am I doing wrong? lol - did this whole rooting thing before on older android phone yet the lockscreen that won't die is making me feel like a n00b
also read on here that Titanium Backup can also force out HTC Lockscreen to Froyo default but don't know what app name it falls under in the huge list of apps on my phone since i don't see anything obvious like "HTC Lockscreen" or anything of the sort.

make sure youre deleting the apk from /system/app and that youre mounted in R/W that worked for me now i have the transparent AOSP lockscreen. but understand that if you delete this apk your stock alarm wont function properly and you will have to download an aftermarket app from the market. for some reason HTC tethered the stock alarm into the HTClockscreen.apk lol so it goes off when its set to go off but you cant dismiss the alarm afterwards lol
Is there any way to make it NOT be transparent but rather with a black background, (or possibly other configurable setting, such as settings -> personalize -> lockscreen background)? The transparency looks not so good as the desktop widgets come through and the texts overlay one another.
I renamed the HtcLockScreen.apk (I have the deodexed ice glacier rom) in /system/app but ended up putting it back because it caused me to have convulsions for it to be transparent.

lol yes yes and yes i have R/W mounted in the root folder (otherwise it wouldn't let me delete anything lol). and i do go in that exact folder and for the moment those two files are deleted
yet the moment turn screen off and bring it back up... there's the dreadful lock screen of HTC's even tho the files are deleted. and upon rebooting the phone (hard or quick reboot) they magically appear
is everyone who deleted these two files with success using a secondary ROM? Because I'm still on the default ROM since.. well I still like much of the default ROM outside of course... this cursed lockscreen
You have s=off ? If you don't, even though you're remounting /system as rw, it might not be writing back out to flash memory if s=on. Just a thought.

more then a mere thought, it's the fix that finally works!
went through all these steps except the visionary stuff that I already did to get root and after deleting those two HTCLockscreen files & rebooting, whala!
of course I'm now seeing the issue folks was talking about with seeing the homescreen icons/widgets through the lockscreen but i feel like progress was made still. thanks all!
How can you hide the homescreen icons, dock, and activities from the clear sliding lock acreen after deleting the htclockscreen file?
not sure about Espresso/Stock but on the Desire HD and Desire Z ROMs the only thing that shows through is the wallpaper (static or LWP whatever you have set), no icons or widgets.
Well those phones arent the one with the issue, the g2 has the stock lockscreen I want.
I deleted the htclockscreen.apk but not the htclockscreen.odex and I do get the transparent lockscreen with the sliders people mention, (idk what's the point of deleting the odex file if it works fine by just deleting the apk) I also get the icons, widgets etc. being displayed in the lockscreen as well. This is my main issue. Is there a way to fix the settings of the ASOP lockscreen that has been aquired by deleting the htclockscreen.apk? How? If not can I just flash a zip of a ASOP lockscreen instead, that way its not been modified by htc?
Did you guys see this one? I've been using it since Dec.

I wan't talking about the phones, i was talking about the ROMs that have been ported from their stock versions to run on our phones. Stock they are running HTC Sense without the TMO Espresso overlay on top of it. I was pointing out that on Stock Sense deleting the HTCLockscreen.apk it gets you have the "stock" G2/AOSP screen like what you are wanting where you can see your wallpaper image or your LWP running behind the locksliders without seeing all your icons and widgets. so if you (like myself) prefer Sense over AOSP/CM but prefer the AOSP lockscreen sliders, then switching to one of eVil D's or Gr8Gorilla's Desire HD ports or eVil D's Desire Z port will let you have exactly what you are trying to do. and it's not just this phone... my wife's phone and my backup phone the MT3G-Slide which also runs Espresso over Sense has the same issue on the stock ROM. it is an issue with Espresso.

differences between eVil D's HD port is that it is using a newer baseband for the build and some of the themes ported for gorilla's ROM have issues with eVil's ROM. but there is a thread over on the D-HD board that has a bunch of themes/skins that work with both CAN BE FOUND HERE, just download the ones you like and install them (not flash but install using a file manager like Astro). the only major/noticeable difference between the D-HD and D-Z that I found is that the D-HD only has portrait mode for the home screen when using stock/Sense launcher (like our stock/Espresso ROM), where as the D-Z home screen will rotate between portrait and landscape depending on how you're holding the phone.

Wow that was a fast reply. I'm gonna sound like a total noob, what's baseband? Does it mean
Like signal strength? So should I use evil d's Rom instead because it'll have faster speeds?
Also I noticed gr8gorilla has the genius button app installed in his d-hd rom while the other two roms from evil d don't.
Are you tired/bored of your traditional Honeycomb Launcher? Are you in need of using folders?
Then you should try GO Launcher HD for Pad.

Yes, nice launcher indeed, I'm using it for a couple of days.
Just having some problems with widget loading (palmary weather and widgetsoid), but not exclusive of this launcher, had the same problem with ADW EX.
looking good, will try it.
Thanx for the tip

As soon as i get home i will post it...
as promised here attached is the stock launcher taken from asus transformer rom, i think it is a 3.1 launcher because it doesn't have widget resize option, if i find a 3.2 working stock launcher i will post it..
NOTE: this is only for rooted devices, you can't install it, but you have to copy it in the /system/app folder, then press the home button, if it doesn't ask you to choose between sony and stock launcher try rebooting your device, make sure to have a backup rom (see condi tool) before, there should not be any problem you know...
I can't seem to install it.... I put it in system/app... Rebooted and it still doesn't show up...

I haven't changed any permission, i've used file manager hd to copy the file to the folder..maybe it does it in automatic?
I recommend that you use root explorer instead.
When it comes to permissions, he means that YOU have to set the correct permissions when you have moved/copied the file.
The correct permission is 644 (rw-r--r--) (r=4 w=2 x=1)
yup
I have Go Launcher on both my phone and tablet and absolutely love it.

Has anybody tried some launchers designed specifically for ICS yet?
I'm running Apex Launcher (free) now and it works really well with the ICS update. Keeps the same slick look and feel, but takes away that "Favorites" button I never use, no small icons up top, and no more of that choppy fast scrolling feature that Sony built into their launcher. Some nice customization options too.
Can get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.launcher&hl=en
I'll probably install Trebuchet (CM9 launcher) and see how it works later tonight.

Try ADW launcher. It has tons of customizations

Same here, ADW Launcher is much better than GO Launcher. I especially like it because we can hide the top bar alltogether.

GO Launcher HD is still to early to put on our tablet imo, no themes and some GO widgets arent workin properly. Don't get me wrong, its a great work in progress, but its still in progress non the less.
Installed GO Launcher EX when I bought the STS and havent found anything better yet.
I'm sure if they keep up the good work on GO-HD it'll be awesome in a few months.
This is a awesome launcher and has one of the best looking weather widgets I've seen. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557091
Worth looking into. What version did you download?
Either of the ones that say qHD works. I tried both and they are exactly the same.
I just loaded this on my MO PHO & am quite impressed w/the smoothness of the scrolling on the desktop. I would like a vertical scrolling app drawer, but, this will be a non-issue once I get the desktop all set up.
Great find! This works great! Very nice.

I modified the app drawer icon for mine to the xperia icon from the AnaKonda rom on the epic 4g touch. Ill upload it in case any one wants to use it. This one just move it to system/apps and set permissions then reboot.
Last picture didn't work.
It looks nice, but browsing the instructions I see a reference to ClockworkMod Recovery. It doesn't seem to apply to me since the instructions say, for the condition that applies to me, to skip that step. I'm not rooted and I don't have CWM, straight stock 2.3.5 Electrify. Can I use this? I'm quite happy with GO Launcher EX, but I like to try new things. I even tried ssLauncher (for about 10 seconds, haha -- not my thing but I did give it a shot).
Just extract it on your desktop,or with a file manager on your device.Install them like you would any other normal apk. I like the folders,they're like the ones in GO,and the transition from drawer to home,and vise versa is super smooth.no custom icons,or any of the other features youre accustomed to in GO though.

From any homescreen: Menu, Settings, Applications, then tick "Unknown sources". If it's ticked, I don't know what to tell ya. It worked fine for me.
This launcher is a bit light on features. You can set the number of home screens, but that's about it. Dragging icons has kind of a neat effect like the icon is wobbly, and the trashcan animation when you delete something is similarly nice, but this launcher is basically crap. It's like a stock launcher. Which I suppose it is/that's the point, but it's still worth noting.
Oh, and it has app drawer sorting, which I haven't seen before, but everything other than alphabetical is random and doesn't do what it says.
And the widgets cannot seem to be used with other launchers. So there is that. Shame about that, widgets tied to a specific launcher. Sense does this as well. Is there really no fix for it? To be able to use widgets tied to one launcher, in any launcher?
I've have a situation where an individual wants to replace the stock launcher. I've been successful in swapping out system launchers for third party ones before, but the S3 isn't liking it too much. The reason for this is the individual feels that his third party launcher suffers a lag that stock doesn't. This S3 is rooted stock, and the filing system is a little different from my other toys, the goal is to remove stock launcher completely and let Nova run all launcher tasks to see if the lag is from file location. On some devices, you can literally replace the launcher apk, reboot and its done, not the case here. Anyone ever permanently replace the stock launcher?

I am confused as to what you want here. Why not just install nova/apex and set it as default launcher? If you are too keen on removing TW launcher just delete Seclauncher2.apk and odex from system/app.

The individual wants to completely wipe out stock launcher and replace permanently with Nova, he has moved the apk, but is getting force closed, I can't confirm if he's deleted or froze stock launcher, and I'm sure he didn't delete odex, which is what I needed to know. Like I mentioned, this file system is a tad different than what I had in front of me, so I was unable to tell him to remove odex. He had mentioned that for him, Nova had a file folder, he asked me if he was supposed to move just the apk or the whole thing, I've only swapped apks, not file folders. But you've been informative. Thank you......
Edit: Still getting force closures after the move. :/
