My friend has a Samsung galaxy s and it comes with samsung apps, which I really like. It would be really nice if we could get it on the desire. One thing I liked about it was when an app is installed from the pc, not market place it still updates the app. HTC seems to lack its own app manager.

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

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,
it would be awesome, if somebody create a Froyo ROM which based on the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 ROM with all nice Galaxy Apps.
.. nice samsung stock keyboard ...
.. nice memo app ...
.. nice touchwiz launcher ...
.. BETTER swype ...
.. etc. ...
I LOVE MY DESIRE and its better than the Galaxy (in my opinion), but i also like the Galaxy design!!
My skills in Unix (Linux) are not really good (but i'm software dev ) - thats the reason why i dont create the ROM.
Thanks for your help!

Samsung Swype is stock, it's the same version you get from their site.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
It's not that simple. The apps are dependent on something in the galaxy framework. Some guys i the N1 forums have been attempting this but not got very far. They specifically have tried the memo app too
I have put together a rom with a LOOK of Galaxy but that's about it. It has touchwiz launcher etc. Yeah the Galaxy apps are missing but the Android Market has over 70,000 other apps for you to use! You can install Swype which afaik is the same as in the Galaxy.
This is request for rom makers. Since i dont have much experience in rom making( i can only edit roms) i wondered if some dev here coud make nice hd rom without sense launcher, widgets and stufff. kinda hybrid rom. hd roms have nice menu, camera, gallery , contacts, but sense is slugish. there was one rom like this but its not updated anymore. with this request comess the poll so we can see if the people wants it
just install a hd rom and a different launcher and set it as default, and then you wont have to fill a dev section with those general questions
or ask the guy you say is the best

There's a Rom called super villain Rom hd
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
yeah but its not update anymore
download baadnewz's rom. Download you're (or her's) preferred launcher, then using adb or root explorer or titanium backup remove Roise & any roise widget.
That's it I think.

I am VERY new to the whole Android thing, so I'm very sorry if this is a stupid question. But if I understand correctly what ROMs are, is there some way to download a ROM that will turn my DZ into the same OS as a Droid X? To make it look the same?
Thanks in advance for help.
As far as a ROM goes, someone would have to develop a port for use on the G2. It's certainly possible but probably not likely.
If you just want to make it look and behave like the X, there are home replacement apps on the market with more customizable options than the stock launcher. I use ADW Launcher, myself.

How do I use these launchers
Once it's downloaded and you press your home button, it will ask you which program you want to use to complete the action complete with an option to pick it as the default.
If you want to switch back and forth, there's an app called Home Switcher available on the market. I don't really use it since I know which launcher I prefer and just stick with it.
I like ADW but Launcher Pro is a popular choice.
Try a market search for Droid X theme and see if one of the luanchers already has a skin/theme to suit your needs. Otherwise, I think customizing it personally is the most fun.

Wow, another uninformative answer from you.
And in regards to the actual question, its because the task manager was ported to wfs so it doesn't work like it should, not much we can do about it though, and you don't even need it because android 2.0 automatically kills apps when the screen is off.
If you want a fully functioning one use this: View attachment com.rhythm.hexise.task-imported_1.apk Playstore link
Why is uninformative?and was not an answer,was a Question !i asked that because i use kimsmod ultimate and for me the task manager not working,and i asked this to know if for others working! And if 2 android kill itself app,why htc explorer have an built in task manager? (Wow,your answers are very good !)
