I had to go to work after I installed launcherpro, so when I hit the home button I made sense my default. Now I can't find how to make launcherpro come back when I hit the home button. Help?
Go to settings, press on applications, and then manage applications.
Find HTC Sense, press on it, and then press the Clear Defaults button.
Now when you press the Home button, you'll get the list of launcher/home applications again.
Thank you (this might be the most helpful site of all time haha)
Anyway I can get sense widgets to run on it? I really liked the htc sense standard clock with weather/weather animation.
Or a good free substitute. I'm good with either.

do a little research and you will find plenty of replacements..
And, contribute something to the community instead of just asking for things..you'll be amazed at how much more helpful people will be if you don't just ASK for things all the time...

This if my first smartphone, I have a very limited knowledge of computers, and a friend recommended this site because he said it was a great place to learn how to get the full potential of my phone. I've looked through the past 6 pages and the only questions I've been able to answer have already been answered because they were basic "where's the link for" question. Explain to me how I'm supposed to contribute if I can't learn by asking...
well, you could start by learning to use GOOGLE to search for answers to these questions, and when you find something worthwhile, you can offer to share it here..
The best way to become proficient at ANYTHING is to research it and solve the problems yourself...you'll be amazed at how easy and gratifying that is, and, then, you will have something to share here with others..
"Sharing is caring" works BOTH ways..
Have you installed AppBrain on your phone? Have you gone to the website?
Have you searched for "replacement widgets" for EVO on Google?
The options go on and on, you just have to put a little mental effort into it, and you'll be amazed at what you'll find
Had YOU asked (instead of assuming) you would have known I did look and I didn't find any good replacements to the sense clock that were free (I'd like to know my options before I try something like beautiful widgets). Yes, I used google
and I've never heard of AppBrain.
And I hardly consider the THREE questions I've asked on this board to be detrimental to the community. I'm new to Android phones okay? I'm glad you're all big and bad because you know what you're doing. However, this was part of my "researching" that I should apparently be doing.
Oh, and only because your know it all attitude bothers me: the best way to learn something is to teach it.

In life there are givers and takers..which one are YOU?
Everything I learned about computers, cell phones, and everything electronic was done by hard work and research ON MY OWN..I bought a 386 computer many many years ago and sat up every night until 2 or 3am reading and practicing on it so I could learn and be able to advance my skill level..I've done the SAME thing with most other new technologies over the years, and, even though its tough at times, when you learn how to solve a problem on your own, you are on your way to true intelligence.
The problem with people like YOU is that the minute the going gets tough, you want someone else to do the hard work for you..
People on this board and every other board will always help someone out who tries to find answers on his own FIRST..
This is sad. Why are you so intent on making me feel like my life has been one giant virus, sapping others? That tells me you regret the fact that there's an easier way to do what you did, and you're jealous. And you shouldn't be, you will have a VASTLY greater knowledge of computers than I ever will because of the about of time you put into it. So...chill
While that's a beautiful story, that tells me one thing: you had/have WAAAY more free time than I did/do. I'm glad your morally opposed to someone asking for help, but the fact of the matter is you HAVE to ask for help when you have limited resources. Should poor african countries just "figure out" how to pay for TB medication when their economies are in ruins? Why can't they look to people with EXTRA resources for help GETTING THEM STATED? My limited resource ? Mine has been time. Balancing school, athletics, job for tuition, and squeezing out a social life robs me of free time. I don't have time to spend 5 hours a day researching about a phone. It'd be cool if I did...but I don't. So asking for help getting started is my plan. If you don't like that, then ignore me.
And again with the assumptions...child, if you knew HALF of what I've accomplished in my life you wouldn't say that "going gets tough" crap haha. My accomplishments have just been in a different field than yours

Fancy widget looks like the sense flip clock
http://i.imgur.com/fMjEg.png
I think it is free.
I saw that one! It was taken off the market though because htc was unhappy with how similar it was to their applications. Which sticks, because from reviews it seems to have been very good. Anyone have a .apk by any chance?
Edit: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OQS1ELEU
I have attached the .apk file of the Fancy Widget. I hope that will help.

I am sorry I have to chime in here and stick up for the OP. You are just an ass. His questions were valid and didn't deserve your flamage. He admitted to not knowing everything thing and was asking for a little assistance. Its asses like you that mess up the experience for other users. If your so intelligent than what the hell are you doing on this board. I would rather have someone on here that is kind and helps when he can instead of some ass that thinks he is sooo smart that he has to put others down. Grow up and find something else to do and leave people alone. You are not needed here. You are completely useless.

that whole exchange was unnecessary.
Home switcher @ the market. Guys just answer the damn question n stop being ass wipes, im sure u didn't know jack **** when u first got Android.

I hate to admit it, but everyone has moved on to the HD2. They have pretty much everything working on the HD2 but there is no developers working on the Rhodium and we have no sound yet.
I really thank all the devs and everyone else involved into making Android run on our Rhodiums, but we gotta face the truth someday. It was fun and I cook WinMo ROMs for the Rhodium, but we gotta realize its dated. The only reason I still have my Rhodium is because it has a keyboard. I'm waiting for a humming bird core HTC phone with QWERTY to make the upgrade. I know some people are gonna flame. Its OK I understand you want to hold on to that Rhodium you have. We ALL do.
PS: Its sad seeing craiglisters selling Android for the HD2. I wish I could kill them all. They don't deserve any money since they did not do any of the work involved nor did they contribute ONE thing. This is why I hate scenes like the smartphone scene... People take credit for what isn't theirs.

Keep doing what you do Reefer, I am patiently waiting for the next update!
I'm getting sick of threads on this, I'm sure devs do not appreciate them either..
Why you gotta be so negative? They are doing their best they can so why don't you lock yourself in the closet and come out of there once android has been fully ported to our device
Knappad
I an getting a little woried that we have reached the point of no return. It would be helpfull if the devs did post updates to let use know where we stand. I am not giving up hope just yet. I can't upgrade for quite some time and don't want to pay out the nose for something that could give me just what I am looking for.
Just want so feedback from devs to know what's up?

Keep up the good work. Ignore the leeches. All they do is take. They dont realize that their purpose should be to test and return feedback on the testing. Instead they seem to think that this forum is like you said, full of customer service reps. Its pathetic.
Anyhow, there are tons of people who appreciate all of the developers work and look forward to more updates.
Yea Reefer, let em have it. I wish I could help more to unlock the potential of this phone. It really is a pretty slick device that just wasn't given enough polish or muscle. I researched the purchase of it for months beforehand and don't want to just give it up now.

No one thinks this is CS, i flash a rom, install a kernel and it messes something up. There is no one better to ask than the devs that made the rom, right????? BOOOYEAH
OP, there is work being done on the sound issue, however it is slow going. I try following the development, but it's WAY over my head.
Reefer for president !!!
agreed its completely dead i envy all the hd2 ppl running android
You are absolutely correct very dead. You should just get HD2s and give me your TP2s.
or pre-order ur 4g Epic.. thats what i did..

Wrong. they make a rom and put it on here for everyone. and lets say 50 people download it. and 25 of them have a problem with it. you realy thing that a dev has time to try and fix 25 peoples problems while at the same time make updates to the roms cause your demanding them? thats not how it works. if you install a rom and something goes wrong then you ask the 24 other people if any of them have had the same problem or found a fix. your a tester. if your getting the devs work for free. the least thing you could do is test it and let everyone know how it works.
Dated but not dead.
You may think its dead but for people who still own the TP2, like myself, would like to see this till the end. I still have another year with this phone before I can upgrade and I cant fork out 500+ dollars to buy a new one like the HD2 or Incredible. I'm sure there are others out there in the same situation. So just because you were able to move on with an upgrade doesn't mean its dead.
sound will be working in a matter of time acl is making head way on it over at ppcgeeks.
As the title states, is there a possible way of porting over a similiar Blackberry 6 styled ROM over? Although I am not a fan, the MIUI ROM is extremely popular and has an i*honeish feel to it and in some instances, can even be made to look like one.
I know there are theme's (not very good one's in my opinion) available on the Market, but i'm talking about having a similiar interface as that as what you would see on the new Torch, not just icons.
I'm currently running Myn's warm two point two Z beta and love this site as well as my DINC for it's awesomeness, but being an ex BBerry user, I think this would seriously present a challenge for some DEV out there looking for one and would be greatly appreciated by many on this site being that many have made the jump over the Android from BBerry.
Maybe i'm crazy and maybe this thread gets deleted, but there would certainly be nothing like this if created. Just a thought!
I think that this could certainly attract new users to rooting and ROM flashing, but as a recovering BB addict, I might have taken a lot longer to find all the other great ROM's which leverage all that Android can be...

I'd have to agree. My take on it is that if you really, really want the crackberry interface, then you should own a crackberry. Our Dinc's aren't iPhones, and they're not BB's. Trying not to be sounding rude, but maybe you bought the wrong phone?
I came to Android from BB, and have had them for years. At some point you just have to move on. Kicking and screaming maybe

I have MIUI because I for the longest time wanted an iPhone (getting one in Feb.), but theres nothing wrong with wanting. There isn't a phone on VZW running bb 6 currently, and simply wanting a phone that appears to look like bb 6 is what he wants. There isn't a WP7 on VZW and yet people make those themes and you all aren't *****ing at them.
Sorry man, there isn't one right now, but if you found enough theming elements you could probably make a close copy. Good luck.
Sidekick, thanks for backing me up. But in reality fellas I was simply posting the thread to see if there was any interest in pursuing development for such a ROM.
Even though I came from BBerry I dont actually want my awesome DInc to perform or be one for that matter, but you can't deny this wouldnt be a challenge to anyone wanting a change in developing ROM's.
This site is awesome and so is the work our Dev's do day in day out. Having said that, I dont want an iphone nor bberry, just simply presenting a challenge to my fellow colleagues

I don't know why you would want to disgrace your phone with a Blackberry rom. Blackberry OS is horrible. Only good thing I could see is it would actualy be on good hardware for once...

MIUI is soo popular considering it is an iPhone copy. I don't see why a proper WP7 or BBerry 6 ROM wouldn't be a hit. It's all about trying out new things and what not. Best of all, this would seriously represent such a challenge to any Dev out there and that is the reason we all love XDA right, because they do crazy things possible. I simply was throwing the idea out there to hear people's feedback on it. I love my DInc and wouldn't trade it for anything else, maybe except for the new Thunderbolt!
Since this is an older phone I'm thinking of trying to come up with a free Hard SPL and an unlocker for this phone. I know there is a HardSPL made by olinex group, but it only allows one free hardspl (I have 5 lines on my plan and thinking of getting TP2s for all of them) and theya re charging for the unlocking. I would like to check if there is still an interest in such a free tool. I don't want to spend a lot of time on something that I would only benefit from very few times and no one else would be interested in using.
Perhaps bug Olipro, see if he'd be willing to do that...? I can't imagine they're making too much money off the project anymore...

Yeah please do it!! Im new to all this but I know I really need the HardSPL flash software.
It doesn't look like this phone is as popular any more. Only two people interested in this. So I'm definitely not going to dedicate a lot of time to this. So I might work on it when I have time to kill but will not give it high priority. I'll keep monitoring the thread to see if this changes.

It would be nice, i have just setup 10 devices without HSPL using stock Roms, but i would love to be able to freely HSPL phones we are looking at setting up about another 15 at this stage, we can get a lot of these phones for $190NZ.
If i was able to HSPL them we might get another 50+
It is true that these phones are getting older now, but in saying that they are a good quality phone that preforms as expected no matter what i throw at it.

One more person wants it!
After unlocking my first one, I really wanted to use it on the second one I found at a great price.
I have a great deal of respect for the folks (guy/gal) that originally cracked the boot loader, but it has been over a month since I requested to use it on a second device, and despite polite correspondence, my "ticket" is still "open".
I can understand them being busy with newer devices, but I think it is kind of sad that they have the code, and will not even respond to requests for it.
A simple "we no longer support this device" would have been appreciated, as apposed to leaving people hanging for a ticket that will never be addressed.
Even kinder, if they are not gaining revenue from it, maybe set it free!

I've just used your keyboard fix after installing kwbr's Tilt 2 rom. Thank you very much, worked beautifully. I'd thank everyone on that thread except I'm not allowed.
Took me ages to get ActiveSync to work in XP, had to install a CAB supplied on the hard spl thread to get it to work. Thanks for your efforts.
I'd like to unlock mine just for the sake of it, plan on keeping it with sprint but who knows in future? which is why I'd unlock mine lol, but since I have no real need presently I'm not tempted enough to pay for it, since the cost of the unlock is more than what phone is now worth :S
Got an ebay replacement for my TP2 and got the "commercial" error message from the Rhodium HardSPL file. Not looking to jip anyone, just want to get my replacement back to the way my old phone was. PM'd Olipro, but I know they are busy (no response yet to ticket).
So if this thread leads to another way to HSPL these things then that would make my phone very happy.
Cajunflavoredbob, could you PM me too?
Thanks.
Count me in. I still use mine as primary phone, but will upgrade soon and nice to have unlocked. Also interested on the behind the scenes as to how it all worked, read the other thread in ppc a few minutes ago and wondered if there were any interest in this. Also wonder if anyone has the stuff from the other groups I could look at, even if it would not work for me.
Yeah I bought off eBay a bad ESN Verizon one for 40$ thinking it would have worked perfectly with GSM networks here in Italy to then find out that I would have had to pay another 20$ to Olinex just to unlock it. I owned one and paid that fee in 2009 (and that's why I bought one again... I loved it so much...) and he didn't ever answer my ticket where I was asking for this favor seeing I already donated and it would be dumb anyway to pay 20$ to unlock a 40$ worth phone...
Go here.
No PMs, please.
As the name of the thread says. If you want iphone style notifications then download the app from the market. It is free and pretty sweet.
Video is below:
Link to the app is here
Enjoy and if you like the app hit the thanks
Credits to the developer who made it and to TechandMe who reviewed it.
just in case
If you didn't develop this application, you should't be asking people to hit your thanks button You're just here to provide a link to the Play store.
This is sweet, good job!

true and you do have a point sir. but i wonder if i did not come across this app while watching the review on youtube i wonder how many people on these forums would know about it..probably not a lot. just sharing like i said and giving people more options on how to customize their phones since we have the best OS in my opinion that lets us do this without the need to root.
Like the whole point of android..it is about sharing what we have and what we know..And i know about this app and wanted to share it with the people here. if it is in the wrong place by all means move it but i feel if people are going to share apps that they find on the market and want to share it with people then i think i am in the right place for it.
Using it..... would be using it for sometime until i get bored with this new stuff
nice find
thanks for finding/sharing
