Hey guys.
I've got DeFrost 1.5f running on my desire, and I love it, but I want the HTC Calendat, Contacts, and Dialer apps back. I much prefer those over the apps that are built into Froyo. How do I go about getting those apps back?
I think you can't. AFAIK, they're built into Sense using HTC framework. I would love to know if there's a way aswell...

Correct. You cannot get those apps without Sense
Okay. Is there any way for me to install Sense on this phone without using a whole new ROM?
Nope

I wood really like a rom which is just plain android (no htc sense ui). As I would like to use launcher pro beta as my home. Or even better a method of removing sense ui from stock rom.
Thanks
Dion
I would suggest you try one of the Froyo roms if you are wanting a rom without sense ui.

why would you want a nexus one :s its an ugly desire with less ram
In retrospect, i would probably have chosen the nexus too, just for the quicker release of OTA updates from Google. But with this in mind, and when the Desire officially receives the Froyo update, wouldn't updates be released quicker through HTC if they get rid of sense ui?...

I hate sense to. Its the stupiest of all home screen. But installing anything else means rooting which I dont like just now.
It is impossible to use any ROM except the stock ROM on a non-rooted desire.

Wow, why get a phone with Sense if you're going to complain?
Try out adw launcher or the stock Nexus One launcher us available for download as well. You do lose all things Sense if you use it though.

Check out nimbu.amorvi.com
I found the stock launcher here and installed it on my Desire and used it with no problems, you can also find the really cool gallery app from the Nexus One here which has some really cool features that I wish HTC hadn't taken out ie date/location grouping.

I don't hate sense. I do hate the sense homescreen which i have replaced by launcherpro. But the facebook integration and the interface changes do make an addition imo! It could be smoother though ,hope that changes in 2.2
Hello everybody. I have an unrooted Desire Z with Gingerbread and Sense 2.1. Because of feeling noob, I am scared to root my Desire Z, but also I really want to use Sense 3.0 lock screen. Is there a way for me?
Thanks
Not without rooting I'm afraid. I'm currently using virtuous 2.0 which is based off the official DZ GB release. With the sense 3.0 lockscreen and it rocks.
If you need help rooting head over to #G2ROOT irc and they will be happy to help

Any way you could link to a thread/post on how to get that lockscreen on ROMs other than Unity? I remember seeing bits and pieces of how but I cant search because I'm on my phone at the moment.

Doesn't that suck up a ton of memory?
You must root your phone. I recommend Virtuous Unity or Virtuous 2.0, both with the overclocked Unity B4 kernel. Good luck!

I am using the sense 3.0 lockscreen with Virtuous 2.0 as well. Whilst I dont play lots of 3d games etc I dont have any problems with memory.
It really does run well.
Running Sense 2 OR 3 requires, in my opinion, removing unneccesary apps with Titanium to free up space. I took out WiFi calling, the drm, the email and stock apps/widgets, and Facebook/Twitter.

Thanks,
I have installed that app and it works nice. but sometimes I have to unlock both lockscreens original one and agile. Is there any other way to replace the original one.
I was thinking about something like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054444
Because I would also like to see that nice music widget on lockscreen and some other stuff.
I have downloaded and install app from that thread but when I restart phone I still have old lockscreen.

Download "No Lock" from the market. It disables the stock lockscreen so you can use agile lock or any other lockscreen
does anyone know if you can delete the stock htc 2.1 lockscreen using titanium back up??
thanks

No, coz Android 3-4 uses .apk's wat doesn't work on earlier versions of Android, tried. And IF it would work, there will be no widgets etc. coz it's another Sense version.
Ok which means I guess it correct different system framework

Think about apps wat are ported from ICs, for example Google Music. No root needed, and it don't need any system framework changing.

For example.
Is this possible? Been running cyanogenmod for a few months as I was stuck on a Vodafone UK cid, have recently been able to flash 1.36 hboot and am currently running mike1986's jb Rom, its a hood fast Rom but after using stock android for a few months I think I no longer like sense.. in fact I think I no longer like what HTC have done to jb,.. I'm going to switch back to stock in but one thing HTC have done right is the burst camera.. is it possible to have it on a non sense rom?
No, the camera from Sense ROMs can only run on Sense framework. I would love to have it too, but it's just not possible.

There's plenty of them on the market.
Some of it almost like sense's camera.
Just keep trying..

Hello.
I'm curious - is it possible for a developer to integrate the Sense framework into a ROM so that apps written for Sense would work. Also, if this was possible, would BlinkFeed have to be included? Thanks.

Do you mean for a non-HTC phone? Probably not.
More than likely, No.
People have tried porting sense to other phones and they never, NEVER could get everything working cause of drivers.

How about an HTC phone with Sense firmware? It should be possible if the only problem are the sizes of partitions.

you don't need to build the sense framework on a custom rom......HTC did that for you already. All the custom sense 6 roms are build from the original stock one that HTC released.

I'm planning to create a Sense ROM with the stock Android UI. Basically, it's CyanogenMod with the HTC kernel and framework, so that apps written for Sense can run on this ROM while the ROM itself looks mostly like stock Android.
Sorry if anything is hard to understand. English isn't my native language.

I see what you're saying... It's like when I had my S4. Having a MIUI rom based of Touchwiz witch means TW camera and apps worked on MIUI.
I don't know if it works for Sense but you may try... Use CM as a based and use a stock Sense rom with the same android version and see if it works out for you... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245786

Seeing as GPE Roms for HTC can only support a small assortment of HTC Apps even with the HTC Service Pack I don't feel that it will be possible. I've heard of people using Sense Roms and then using Rom Cleaner to make them look more to stock, but thats still considered a sense ROM.
