Does anyone make one cuz i don't want to give up my sense widgets for it. Or I guess if there is a way to use sense widgets on launcher pro that would be even better
i dunno if i'm aloud to, but i want to bump this up since it is buried
i have never seen a way to do this in sense. I doubt it is possible.
As another option MOST widgets can be replaced with 3rd party widgets that are very close to sense.
ie
clock/weather/toggles - beautiful widgets (or clock and weather from fancy widgets)
Bookmarks - if you get launcherPro Plus (paid version) you get this
contact widget - see above or try mecontacts free
if you have a specific widget other then those you love in sense let me know i probably have a very similar replacement.

How do you get the htc clock widget and friendstream and stuff on launcherpro? or is it even possible?
Nope, those are Sense Widgets, so if you use LP you can't use those widgets. If you buy LP+ though i think they have similar widgets. You can take a look at them without buying just to check them out.
.. Replacements.
Sense Clock -> Fancy Widgets. Look it up on google.
Friend Stream -> Pure Messaging Widget does similar job.
Pro Version so far has
-Message
-Favorite
-Bookmark
-Calendar
Widgets I Believe. It's well worth it.
Take a look at Beautiful Widgets too.
s there away to have launcher pro but still have htc sense?And with the widgets?
yes you can swicth between both
technically no because sense is basically a launcher over top of standard android. its either one or the other. however launcher pro has sense themes on their site if you dont really care about the sense widgets much.
This should be in Q & A and not Android Dev...

Like the others said, you can have both Sense & LauncherPro, & switch between them, but you can't have the Sense Widgets on LauncherPro. There are plenty of look-alikes in the market you can use though.
additionally if you get launcherpro plus you get a decent replacement for most of the sense widgets that have been remade for launcher pro and can resize widgets which is prettynice.
Add SwitchPro to that mix and you've got everything you need! Heck, between the triple-scrolling task bar at the bottom, 8 SP slots for all my radios and functions I access, three normal shortcuts, and a resized calendar widget, I have everything on one home screen.
Not to forget that you can get up to 7 by 9 icons on the home screen and a rolling apps listing in "3D".
EasyHome
I use an app from the market called EasyHome. It places shortcuts of different launchers on your homescreen! I have sense, adw-launcher, launcherpro, and an experimental AndroidWindows7 launcher.

Oh i thought yuo could do those with the non paid version! even more bonus.
I have had the paid since it came out so hard to keep up with all the benefits there are tons. worth every cent.
Why would you want it
Thread moved to Q&A.
Why would you want it
i could see someone who really likes the sense widgets wanting to but thats why launcherpro plus has recreated them. with out purchasing any apps(or launchers) it is very hard to replace all the sense widgets with something that is as good as what sense has (widget wise).
If you look you can find many that are close but a lot are paid apps. personally i still think your best bet is to simply buy the plus version of launcher pro and as mentioned switchpro. between the two and a few free apps you can replace almost every sense widget.
while its easy to ask why would you its not hard to see why someone would want to if they didnt have knowledge of which apps to get to replace the sense widgets and lets be honest looking for anything in the market is no easy task if you dont know its name.
I'm trying out a new launcher (ZEAM) and it looks like HTC Sense still stays open in the background.. how do I get rid of it completely? I don't want 2 launchers running..
Also - anyway to use the HTC Widgets on Zeam? I love the Calendar widget and the weather/clock one

Here is calkulins flashable zip that will completely remove HTC sense from your phone. This will also remove all sense widgets I believe. Also, I have never used Zeam launcher, but I would speculate that you can't use HTC sense widgets on it (at least you cant with launcher pro or adw launcher). They only work with sense. There are quite a few other widgets out there though that look very similar to HTC's widgets.

Also here is a link to calk's page that all sorts of mods/tweaks/goodies and such. Useful bookmark. They work on pretty much any sense rom.

Please use the search...
Pay version of launcher pro has widgets similar to sense with the exception of the clock.
For the clock, you need the pay versions of either Beautiful Widgets of Fancy Widgets. I know for sure Fancy Widgets has skins to make the clock look identical to the sense clock. It also has screen on animations and weather animations when you open the weather.
A number of third party messenger and calendar apps also have their own widgets.

yea i was watching a video on youtube of fancy widgets but the animation when u unlock the phone does not work right and a another Q how do u put the signature (like the one u have after the line ) in here cuz i been looking around in my profile and i dont see any part for signature
Screen unlock animation worked fine for me. I think beautiful widgets has one too. Neither are as good as sense though. Worth the sacrifice for me though since I don't really like Sense.
Look under quick links at the top of the screen. One of them is edit sig.
Hi
I quite like the facebook and twitter widgets for launcher pro however go launcher seems more customisable but i dont want to lose those widgets so can anyone think of a good replacement for the widgets?
Sent from my SGS II using my thumbs
Colorize Widget is the closest one I have found.
Free too
You might want to try this. It's Kamma's Status Updater and should fit your needs perfectly.
Or if you don't fancy that then you could pick up Pure Messenger widget and configure it to just show your twitter and facebook updates (although personally I find it a little bit sluggish for scrolling).
