I've just upgraded my TP2 to Windows Mobile 6.5,. I downloaded the official ROM from the HTC site.
This ROM has HTC Sense and I was just wanting to know how you get the quick links on the home screen. All the images and videos I've seen running 6.5 seem to have them but I can't find any options to do so.
Thanks
Sense 2.5
Hi skratchwiz
I think you've seen screenshots of Sense 2.5, which has the shortcuts on the today screen as well as clock and weather. Sense 2.5 is from the HTC Leo, and other newer HTC devices so you won't see it in a stock HTC ROM upgrade. You will need a cooked ROM to get Sense 2.5. One thing to note is that it doesn't natively support landscape like Sense 2.1.
Cheers

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the quick reply. I really like the look of the custom ROMs. Just reading up on how to flash my TP2.

Not sure if I posted this in the proper place but here is the question.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=638282
How do I customize HTC Sense in Windows 6.5 Phoenix 2 ROM?
This may be a simple question, but whenever I check off things other than HTC Sense when customizing the home screen, nothing shows up.
More specifically I want messaging and info on the today screen too, but the only thing that is there is HTC Sense Clock/weather. It is very stubborn, in which it disables anything other than itself to be shown in the today screen.
How do I fix this (Look at pictures for more info)
Pictures are in the order I took them, and not by the name/number of them.
Thanks

That's because Sense covers the windows Today screen. All the other widgets you select are hidden behind it. It's like watching a fullscreen movie and wondering why you can't see the clock widget on your desktop.
If you want to put more stuff on your Sense homescreen, use Max Manila.

There is a problem with that though because max manila only supports sense 2.5, while im using 2.1. 2.1 is also "better" for the xperia because sense 2.5 has 1GHz CPU's in mind, while xperia is half that speed I think. SO what do you mean by use max manila?
I'm sorry, I confused WM 6.5 with Manila 2.5.
I'm afraid you'll have to scour the Themes and the Dev and Hacking forums for tweaks for Manila 2.1. It usually involves editing the manila files themselves.

And there is a Sense 2.5 version for TP2, and thus for 528MHz CPU.
Yeah I switched to the leo builds, which have sense 2.5. Is this what your talking about Lokatho?

Yes, the feb 26 release has Sense 2.5 from Rhodium and not Leo. You can tell because it doesn't has the document, e-reader and footprints tab.

The real Sense 3.0 lockscreen requires the 3.0 framework (Sense 3.0), which isn't ported for your phone. So it's pretty much impossible aside from that app.
Ummmmm, download and flash a sense 3.0 ROM... Easy fix.

I'd take a look at the GingerBangSense ROM with the Sense 3.0 Patch. Been working perfectly since install last week. I am an admitted flashaholic, and it is going to take something pretty cool to make me move away from this ROM.

Can anyone downgrade Htc One V to android 2.3 with sense 3.6 for full animated Rose effects, or upgrade to Full Sense 4.0 with all animation and effects.
Can anyone (Developer) Port Android 2.3 with Sense 3.6 to HTC One V?

Good question, I was actually wondering the same, while android 4.0 is here working on this phone, I feel sense 4 makes it a bit sluggish....
Stock android 4.0.3 or even stock gingerbread on this phone would be awesome...
That's awesome idea, i would love to see Android 2.3.6 and Sense 3.6 on my ONE V. Maybe i'm just not used to the 4.0 yet

To me, sense 4 is too....BIG for the lack of a better word
The icons are way to big, as are menus, as is just everything....
Maybe I'm just picky like that though hahaha

That is correct. I like Sense 3.5 on my old Desire S and I think it's possibble to have custom sense 3.5 running on 4.0.3. that would be awesome to have Sense 3.5+ICS features.
Android 2.3.x with Sense 3.5 is good
I think it is batter to have Android 2.3.x with Sense 3.5 for Htc One V, to perform better then Android 4.0.x, so i hope there is any developer the port it from Desire S or Desire HD
you guys are picky..
sense ui 4 is so beautiful.
all we need is a cm9 build and everyone can install any launcher he wants , make changes to icons, menus, homescreens... everything!

We're not picky, we just want to have more options. For the CM9 fans there should be CM9 ROM and for the Android 2.3/Sense 3.6 there should be ROM too. I strongly feel that the hardwer of HTC One V is designed for Sense 3.6. HTC made a mistake by porting Sense 4.0 to this smartphone in first place because we didn't get the full Sense 4.0 but something similar to "beta" i.e HTC customized the Sense 4.0 specially for the One V which resulted with losing some genuine Sense features like the Leap view.

When asking for stuff, make sure to get your nomenclacture correct
Froyo / eclair (Android 2.1 / 2.2) had "sense", referred to as "old sense" or 1.9
Gingerbread (Android 2.3) had sense 2.1, 3.0 and 3.5 (the latest referred to as "runny" ROMs)
Handsets that shipped with gingerbread, and were then upgraded to ics came with sense 3.6 HTC wanted the same user experience as 3.0 / 3.5 for its "older" handsets
Ice cream sandwhich (Android 4.0 +) sense 3.6 (upgraded gb phones), sense 4.0 lite (One V), and sense 4.0 full
So, NO handsets, as in NONE have gingerbread and sense 3.6......ZERO.
I can understand asking for:
1. Gingerbread / sense 3.5
2. ICS with sense 3.6
3. ICS with a sense 3.6 / 4.0 hybrid (like the old 2.1 /3.0 hybrids)
4. ICS with full sense 4.0
But not gingerbread and sense 3.6........doesn't exist.
I have been running sense since the beginning, literally, the "cube" on the HTC touch, then manilla 2D, 3D, sense as in winmo sense ala HD2, then Android sense. When talking about sense, proof read and make sure your not mixing up the varients and what they can run on. You cannot ask for a "port" for something that doesn't exist.

yes. no sense. if you want sense. stick with sense 4. it is much more optimized than any other older sense, I can tell you that! but if you want a faster phone with no lag, go with stock android with no user interface. install a great launcher like Nova and enjoy android experience how was meant to be!
We do not need Sense... All we need is stock working Android 4 ICS build and cm9.. If someone want to help me port that Rom please pm me.. I do not have the phone yet.

Yes as we need
1. Gingerbread / sense 3.5
4. ICS with full sense 4.0
any one from them, whatever easy to port with full function.
but we like to have full animated Sense as it was i think option 1. Gingerbread with Sense 3.5 as best for HTC One V and compatible with hardware.
I like choice as much as anyone, any "flashaholic" does. The more the better.
There is always the possibility of "rooted stock" that you can add flashable zips to. Examples would be added leap view (available on the desire), rc team tweaks, optimo tweaks etc which offer different animation on / off, different Rosie (that's the name for the sense launcher btw) mods, flashable themes (requires deodexed ROMs), etc.
My so called list was the various sense / android combos that could work on the One V hardware, by no means meant to be definitive. I have not heard of many people wanting to downgrade their version of android though, sense 3.6 is basically sense 3.5 reworked for ICS.
Shubbysomethinorother (sorry Dude!) was a talented dev on the Desire, I have always enjoyed his ROMs. Cpk5 (sorry if I got that one wrong too) is a talented themer. Asking guys like that for ROM extras like flashable zips that may or may not work on a rooted stock ROM is the best, imho way to go for most as it allows you to add the features you want, and ignore the rest. No one ROM will satisfy everyone.
A device with alot of dev support tends to get this, if not, be nice to the devs you have! Politely asking for features, and not demanding etas etc is a good way to start.
Good luck guys, myself I keep visiting this phone at my local store comparing it to my Desire. It's cheap enough off contract to make a nice development toy while waiting for a One S with real storage, or the "two" series!

Just take the plunge. I bought one as a stop gap until the next HTC Nexus device (hopefully released November as per the rumours). Until then, the One V is great. Just needs an AOSP ROM really.

yeah! stock android gingerbread or icecreamsandwich would be great. htc sense is consuming too much RAM on HTC One V.
So I'm still pretty new to all this. I've had my phone rooted for a few months and all I can say is I love this phone so much more now, but I would like to install themes or some other customization's on it. I'm not sure I can just download any theme and flash it to the phone so I need to be pointed in the right direction.
I'm running Warm TwoPointThree - Release One [Sense3.5] and its been very good on my phone. I haven't run into any problems with it, but again I want to theme it or change the look of it a bit.
Any suggestions to point me in the right direction would be great.

Generally it should. Maybe its just sense in general? Because i was on a sense 1.0 rom that had that clock.
