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

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

Okay did the downgrade method, got S-OFF, permroot, unlock, everything!!
Now to do what I wanted to, get stock gingerbread or anything close to it on my phone? However, I searched around and I can only find ROMs based on Sense UI and I really do not like Sense...
Are there any stock Gingerbread ROMs or anything similar to the "Oxygen Gingerbread Rom" for the Desire?
And if there are none, then can I theme my current ROM to make it look like Gingerbread? There are many Gingerbread launchers in the Market however, I would like to have the black notification bar and the icons, ect.
Thanks!

Gridlocks cm7 is straight from source with no tweaks so should be closer to official cm7 when released, phunkycow customises his, it's horses for courses really but I've stuck with Gridlocks build
Which is more stable? Sorry for the questions

So I'm looking to dabble into sense a little. My only thing is it takes for every to set up. So I see there is Unity and Coredroid. Both have sense 3.0. I'm looking for a pure gingerbread stock type rom. Id prefer not to have sense 3.0. But if its my only option that's cool as well. I know rmk said he's not releasing a stock sense until it comes out for the desire z and I have his froyo on my computer. Just trying to see what's up there. Its hard to search on tapatalk. A name is all I need. I don't mind scrolling back tons n tons of pages.

Coredroid made me like sense. The is a gb sense leak from htc. Rmk is talking about sense 3.0. But if you want a stock gb sense there is one in the dev section.
I personally didn't dig it. Try coredroid see how you like it

Yeah I had a coredroid backed up. I had FINALLY set it all up and then just backed up to come back to later. I'm using it right now and I like it for the most part. Not as light as pure aosp roms but who knows. I said ill give it a trial run. Do you know how to disable the regular messaging app so no notifications come up. Like on the icon or anything. I'm using handcent because stock loads too slow

No I don't sorry. There are some issues with core I wish I could fix. Only allows 1page texts..after 160 they don't get the message at all. You don't get an error but it didn't go through. I really wish I could get some pointers on deving because I would love to dedicate mucho time to make it actually stable and fast.

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:

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
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.

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