Reorganizing HTC Sense Home Tab... - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello out there everyone,
I have a verizon touch pro 2 stock 6.5 rom, and I was wondering if there is a way to rearrange the home tab in HTC sense. I like sense, but I really hate it being on the right side, does anybody know how this might could be changed?
Best case outcome would be the home tab in the middle, with it centered on the screen. Hopefully doing this would not effect using the end key to return to the home tab. If anyone could help or knew a way I could get it to work I would be really grateful.
Thank you very much.

Another Lock Screen idea

Hello guys
is there a possibility to make a programm to lock a screen just as you would do on your PC after pressing win+L?
You know, there would be an (customizable) icon in the middle of the screen with currently logged in user and you would tap the icon a nd type in some password....or some gesture like circle or triangle or whatever...
There could also be a possibility to change backgrounds (just like you had a program for win Logon Loader)...
What do you think?
I personally don't like Slide to unlock since I am used to it from my ipod touch - but I don't like having it on blackstone...kinda sucks...
apple is apple htc is htc!
So what do you XdaLords think of such a lockscreen?
Thanks
hi, you know, if you press long the "shut conversation" button, then it locks the screen. it's the original lock, doesn't look so nice, but it's very efficient.. otherwise, the lock idea with the gesture is quite good, something like in winterface.. don't know, perhaps someone knows something similar greets^^
I dont have blacsktone yet...
I just had an idea based on communication here in the forums
ooooo i am so lookig forward to have one...hurray
I use sensorlock. You just spin the pone clockwise and it locks using g-sensor. Anticlockwise unlocks it.
stunning
Guys, this program is simply stunning !!!!!!
why dont HTC release this with the phone in the first place!!!!

Stock Trashcan Space?

Okay so I just rooted my G2 with CM6 and I am missing only one thing. I loved the small 1x1 trashcan drop that came with the stock G2 rom. I don't know how anyone else feels about this, but anyway am I just missing something? I have scoured the UI customizations and cannot find any way to move the trashcan away from the left side on landscape, or top in portrait. I like to do alot with my keyboard open and it makes it hard to drag icons over to the next screen. Anyway just a rant unless anyone has a solution it would be nifty.

CM6+ comes with ADW launcher as default, and that is how that home replacement app is set up. If you install another home replacement app, (I recommend LauncherPro) you will have the option to switch next time you hit the home button. Each launcher app is set up a little differently so you will have to find one that fits your tastes or find the stock launcher.
and I think this is supposed to go in Q&A..

Cool, thanks guys! Solved.

Button Order?

Does anyone know if it's possible to switch the task switcher and back buttons round at present as I'm used to the back button being on the right hand side on my HD2 and would much prefer it to be there on my Galaxy Nexus.

Not in the stock software as far as I'm aware, but I'll bet custom ROMs, once they start making their way out, could have something like this as a feature.
Ye I'm certain it'll be developed for custom roms, was just wondering if anyone had discovered a way yet.

[Q] Setting the default homescreen on the One X

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is something really silly and simple that I'm somehow missing, but I'm unable to change the default home screen on the HTC One X. Is this not supported on the stock ROM without installing a 3rd party launcher? I'd really like to be able to change the default homescreen. When I say default, I mean the one the stock launcher takes you to upon pressing home.
I've tried looking all over but haven't found much. I'm guessing the feature exists because when I zoom out of my homescreen, one of the homescreens has a home icon on it, but I don't know how to change it to some other screen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
have you tried to get all the homescreens on the screen together and just press the one you want and move it around? what i mean you get all 7 of the homescreens together. if you press on one you can move it in the order you want..so you have the homescreen the main one in the middle the one with the home icon well you can move it to the top and that will be like page 1 starting from left to right.. hope that helps

I understand what you are saying but I think you are misunderstanding his question
if I have 7 screens and say for instance I want to make screen 6 the home screen how does one do that (so that when you press the home button it will go to screen 6 and not to the middle screen [current home icon])
I have searched for this feature as well to no avail
Move all the features that are on screen 6 to screen 1. Duh. You're thinking in reverse. Think forward. Best o luck to ya.

I think you got it backwards that is alot of PT simple put how do you make another screen the home screen
it was simple with my Moto Milestone you just selected "make this the home screen"
I am thinking this is a limitation in Sense 4.0
not a biggy, but fundamentals are missing
Solution?
I might have a solution. I accidentally changed my home screen so everytime I pushed the Home button on the bottom it went to the wrong screen. The way I fixed mine was doing a restart from the screen I wanted to be the home screen. Once the reboot was complete, my home screen was set correctly.
/update Nope, somehow it randomly got changed again, tried what I thought fixed it above, doesn't work. This is stupid, obviously there is a way to change it, shouldnt be this difficult. I have exactly 9 days to return this phone, I am considering it with all the issues I've had.
I just saw on the SGS3 review that the home screen can be changed easily….
Each screen as an icon on it when in fan view. One is designated as home, to change, just click the icon on the screen you want to be home. Whatever tiles/widgets/apps are on that screen, its still home.
With the One X, you can have any of the 7 screens as home but the tiles/widgets/apps move with the home page (by dragging the home screen around and changing its order)
The only way to do it would change home screen and then manually change all the icons/widgets after
Steve

Edge contacts ported to G3

That would be awesome. Easy way to call/send a message by just swiping for the left or right of the screen, it has a really nice animation.
Anyone interested in doing it, or have knowledge of someone who already did?
Thanks!
