sorry if this has been asked before, my search didn't lead to any results, so I try it this way.
I'm running OpenDesire 3.1 at the moment and really like the stock Android UI a lot more than HTC's Sense. But, I have to admit, that HTC did some nice things to android.
What I really miss a lot is the way copy&paste works in Sense
(if you hold your finger on one word it gets marked and you can move the two slider at the beginning and end of that word to the desired length of what you want to copy etc.).
Is there a way to port that over to OpenDesire or another non-sense ROM?
If you want you can try this application

There is also free version, it work also with immage, and it can replace the copy/paste of sense.
I bought it and i can say that work soo good.
I hope this can help you with your problem.
thanks, that's quite good, but I think it's pretty expensive and it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I really like the litte pop up with the options of copy, search and share...
This here is what I'm talking about(just in case I failed to describe it clearly):
(edit: since I'm not allowed yet to post Links, it's a video on androidcentral, where the feature is shown on the Droid incredible.)
I'm really happy with OpenDesire, but I miss this function a lot.
I think almost everything you only see in Sense, will only be available WITH Sense. That copy and paste thing is built-in to the browser. (and maybe other Sense apps? I've never tried)
That's just my guess.

Not sure, some people are trying to port the camera app and other things, so, maybe it's possible...
Also I think the copy and paste thing wasn't just built-in to the browser, but available in most apps.

Yeah, I know... but that's why I'm asking
I still have a little hope, that a dev says, it's possible to implement something similar(doesn't have to be identical )...

The first screenshot is a mock-up as far as I know...
There is a theory that it will soon support music play from your lockscreen.
But I could be wrong, if you give a link to that shadowline ROM I can do some research because I would like to have it too!

i heard it was a real project and the was actually written but never implemented... hope they will cause that would be sweeeet
in the meantime you could use S2U2 coupled with S2P that will give you a very similar things more in a iPhone style though

Okay, and if there's anything I don't want on my phone, then it's iphone stuff.
No but those are all third party programs, it would begreat to have it implemented in WM.
I don't like the iPhone neither... still when something is good I don't care where it comes from
S2U2 provides many very good things (that iPhone don't have actually)
- SMS/MMS/EMAIL/MIST CALLS/TASK/APPOINTMENT/ALARM Display and dismiss without unlocking
- 1+ appointments display
- Time and real battery meter (always or when charging)
- weather forecast
- Fullscreen caller ID
- Slide to answer (or not)
- blank screen/lock on talk
- integration/actions on MP3 player S2P without unlock
- system/incall volume control
and that just the basic features...
It is honestly a great tool !!!
Otherwise regarding integrated in WM... I don't know what the MS devs are doing but they better get their fingers out of where they shouldn't be
People are still very cold about getting WM Phones... they even rather by a LG or a Sam-****-sung
Ill have a look and try that program but as some one lse said I don't want my diamond to be abit like the iphone thats why I got it because it#s nothing like it
Hy all.
I and probably meni other users are not happy abaut task manager build in Windows Mobile. It's way to hidden!
Task list shoud be visible from home screen. This is the only way I can see what I have to do in comming days.
Sou I made user interface for this app.
It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If enyone has the time and knolage, this could be big thing
wow...amazing work....have u made it?
I just put some Sense graphic's together and this came out.
Now we need some developer's to make the hard part, and that is modifying the Sens files.
I'm hoping Co0kieMonster could taka a look at this.
BUMP....Great idea!!!
looks awesome. I wonder how much of this is covered by ptasks.
A manila tab would definetly be awesome but not neccessary for me
I tried ptasks... and gave up, it was too slow for regular uses..
...maybe you give "mvcal" a try (www.portablepim.de)
hence the website is in german, the software will be english after installation. If you prefer german, you can switch to it in options->languages)
or you download directly from here
It cannot only manage the appointment, it also handles the tasks in a fingerfriendly manner and combines it with appointments.
Very interesting, this is the function that lacks to sense. it would be nice to share it ou explain how to made it.
thanks
bump!!! I like this!!
Marty
Really interested too.
Would love to have something like this.
Its an amazin idea..it mus be not so hard for the great Developers here on Xda..
Plz sum1 mak this possible..after making the Call History tabs this one is next!
bump bump bump
Look at here:

Not exactly a new tab, however for sure tasks integrated in Sense
yep, i'm using AHT already, it works..
the thread starters "design" just have more eyecandy... i also looking forward to the day, when a friendly dev will make one

Hi digibum,
ask meltwater. He has done FB-Tab and is busy with RSS-Tab. I think he
has found a very good mechanisme to do things like that....

Yep this is just the kind of thing which could be done using the same methods I've used. The whole concept is to remove the difficult sense side and provide a simple way to populate a tab.
If a developer is interested in doing the TodoUtil program (.net side) I can probably provide a shell of the Sense RSSTab which by design is supposed to be generic enough to be populated with any kind of list data.
There are still features I've not yet built into the Sense tab (long press selection, left-hand icon selection, notifications), but as I develop the RSSTab the idea is I can expand what it is able to do.
Even as it currently stands, I don't think there is much that would need to change to get a simple To-Do tab.
What rom would you recommend for Desire? If I'm looking for:
1. simple: no sense, no extra stuff like facebook, stock widgets and crap.
2. stock Android UI.
3. the faster the better (good SetCPU app support would be great with overclocking and underclocking)
4. with all new 2.2 functions like 720p video capture.
OpenDesire I reckon, find it in Android Development
Will try today, if there wont be any better suggestions.

i second that.
I used OpenDesire for a couple of days and didn't care for it, I'm using a Cyanogenmod nightly (they're now basically release-quality) with a few unwanted APKs removed prior to installation (amazon mp3, facebook, twitter, calculator, live wallpapers, talk, etc) and it's by far the best rom I've tried. I've tried about 5 in all, all but Cyanogen being from this forum.
If you remove unwanted APKs, use extreme caution not to remove things that are part of the OS. For example, I removed the Google Talk APK but not its "provider" IIRC, since the provider actually does a bunch of other things and is in no way safe to remove.
Nothing against the other rom developers, but from my experience, Cyanogenmod is just on a whole different level.

definitely faster, works better with setCPU.. even the UI is more simple and clean it offers more then damn sense! Like these customizable power widgets and stuff that weren't on stock 2.2 OS. thanks
Camera works decent too.. but some options is missing, maybe there is alternative camera app?
What's the name of that widget at the top of the screen in the last picture? Or is that one of the "customizable power widgets" that aren't in Sense Roms or whatever?
Only being able to select 2g and auto on dearest and open desire is a real pain tho
Don't listen to u about putting back all stock profiles to include 3G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As far as the launcher goes I'm afraid not nor is there a current theme. Its a shame but really there are some nice ICS themes out there

There are many great alternative Launchers for our phones. Zeam, ADW, Go Launcher, Launcher Pro, SPB Shell, just to name a few. All of them vary in many ways, and are very customizable to most anyones preferences. Unfortunately Sense has not been ported due mainly in part that its much like our TouchWiz launcher, i.e. its built into the rom framework wise. I agree its a gorgeous launcher and I wish HTC would make a standalone apk for any phone to use it.
Google HeLauncher.
Done.
I found it after some searching, this launcher is perfect. it has sense and espresso among others. Why was this taken out of the market?
Was a little hard to find, but this is a neat launcher, thanks Big Worm!
Is it okay to post outside links on here, so i can post where to find it?
Please tell me where to find it? Its not on the Market.

Just FYI so everyone knows, those links are for version 1.0.3. I was able to find 1.0.4 by googling h2104.apk. I believe the last version I saw in my hunt mentioned was 1.0.5. Thanks for posting links for everyone else, like I said before, it's a good launcher.

Thanks! I downloaded it and it looks cool. Gonna play with it for a while to see if its a keeper.
I just found this on the play store guys and I think it's pretty awesome, this is the only new feature that I loved about iOS7, it's pretty handy IMO. Thought I shared it.
I'm just sharing it, I couldn't find the post where the app was born ( I'm pretty sure was developed here on xda ), but anyways, if you find the maker, thank him, and be sure to leave 5 star to promote development.
Here is what it looks like on my device.

No offence but if I wanted my phone to look like an iPhone then I'd still have my iPhone lol ... I'm sure some people will appreciate this app though, at least if/when they iron out the issues current users seem to experience with it
I actually tried this the other day and I really didn't like it. Its kind of askward since it is right by my app drawer button. So I found myself hitting that instead. Or it would do both.
I much prefer power toggles or something similar in my notification drawer. Not to mention the colors on the center are just plain ugly and don't blend well with anything.
Just my opinion!

I can't get how getting a quick settings alike will make your android look like an android, this is not a theme or whatsoever. Well I just wanted to share it, I'd never use an iPhone that's for sure but control center is way better option than both quick toggles/ quick settings on android IMO.

Curious as I notice you are running a Venom ROM.
If so what benefit does this have over using the Quick Setting in the pulldown, does that not offer even more?
Nevermind, the mod took care of it....
