Agreed, except for the lack of receiving MMS. This was the whole reason I traded back to sense from MIUI, people kept sending me pictures and I had to go through sprints crap site to find them. (It's not easy to find your received MMS online, but it's there.)
yea hopefully they can fix the mms issue so we can have some talented person port it ova

First off excuse my ignorance, as I am not a developer.
the thing I hate most about Sense is the Contact interface, facebook and google voice in particular. Now I know google voice isn't a part of sense but thats kinda the point.
Facebook for sense is a good idea done bad. All the mundane features are hidden and obscure. Also when you use google voice, half the sense features don't integrate and just make things feel cumbersome.
Is it possable to make a true "vanilla" Rom at least when it comes to contacts and facebook. Can we get the android facebook to do the contact integration like the Nexus and can the sense contact interface be completely discarded?
I assume is is vary difficult since it hasn't been done yet but I wanted to request it just in case it can be done
People are working on vanilla 2.2 and2.1 roms as we speak. Should have more stable versions soon.

so these roms would have no sense it it at all? The reason I ask is because I have tried a few roms that say they are Vanilla but as soon as you go to a contact, the sense interface is still used.
try the CyanogenMod Test Rom.
No sense at all. It's nice to see it totally plain, but there are still enough bugs in the rom that I went back to stock to wait for a future release. But I still recommend you check it out for a day or two.

I tried it last night. Facebook still uses the HTC sense to sync contacts (witch is broken and I didn't try to push the friendstreem.apk) and I am pretty sure it had the sense finger slide in the contacts

You may have tried Ozzeh's or Jager's "vanilla" roms (which still have some sense left) but if it had any sense in it you didnt try Cyanogen. His is completely free of sense.

I may be wrong about the contacts menu but the facebook sync was definitely missing from the android app witch lead me to believe I would have to push friendstreem.apk to fix it but I didn't try so I may be wrong

OK, that makes sense then.
Because yes, right now the only way to get Facebook sync to work is to use friend stream....but that doesn't mean that the ROM has sense UI in it. It means you REALLY want Facebook sync.

ya, it may sound minor but if you use the friendstreem.apk, it doesnt show there thumb mail pics in the android quick dial links, at least it didnt for me on another rom

I find my self still playing around with my droid every night because I really like 2.2 vanilla and my good home run derby account is on there LOL
Use yetirom, absolutely no sense in that one

I just realized I forgot to add the screenshots of the apps If you check now, there should be 3 more screenshots.
I really dislike a few things about sense, however I cant deny that my phone has been running very good with skyraider. Previously I was running cyanogen and I was loving the pure vanilla, but like I said so far skyraider is running alot better. My question is: is there a way I can get the evo or cyanogen camera on my phone now? The stock sense camera is horrible.
I also would love to have the dailer and messaging from vanilla if possible. If I have to push something through abd, can someone please refresh my memory with a step by step process how to do it. The unrevoked programs spoiled me so much I forgot how to access it.
Thanks
I don't have an answer -- but I'm curious: what about the Sense dialer and camera don't you like ... or probably easier to answer: what do you miss about the vanilla dialer and camera?

After using the nexus camera from the cyanogen rom, it took alot better pictures due to on screen button, rather than using the track button, I also liked the option lay or alot better. The dialer and the messaging also was alot smoother and I also liked the layout better also. This rom is alot better running, but I miss some vanilla features
Dailer one from market
Had the same problem as I wanted vanilla dialer

Took a look at it, I really just want the stock dialer, messaging, gallery, and camera. The only thing I like about sense really is the weather animations after awaking it (can't wait to see the snow one).
Can someone please point me in the right direction to doing this, is it possible?

You know you can push anywhere on the screen and hold to take a snapshot using the htc camera...
It actually focuses and takes better pics when you do it that way, too.

Have you tried the camera with cyanogen yet. Way better all day long from htc camera.
I've been lurking this forum long enough to know that those who ask redundant questions without searching will be shunned from any helpful answers. Lucky enough I've searched far and wide for an answer to this question. Is there any way to have a dialer that looks....different...much different from the stock dialer? The dialer that comes stock on the phone is so ugly and annoying to navigate in ways that I can't even describe in words. Then I came across the [attached] dialer and couldn't help but wonder HOW it's possible to get a dialer like this or similar to this. So clean looking, so simple...I am a total noob when it comes to android development, but I've done my time in searching for a solution so I wouldn't have to make a topic.
I understand this is from the Enoch theme for an old version of Cyanogenmod, but is there any other way to emulate such a dialer?
You could try installing the AOSP dialer..which is that one you have in the screenie minus the theme...

Thank you for this information!!! See, I wasn't even aware this was an AOSP dialer. I just tried to do my own research before asking, and the dots I connected were this dialer was something CM-related.
Okay not to sound like a total noob (even though I am), is it okay if I ask [in this thread], how would one go about installing this AOSP dialer? I'd prefer it over the one that came on the Evo.

If I can add to the question.
I am on CM6 and love it, in particular the AOSP dialer.
In case I want 4G, I may change roms.
Is it possible to have the AOSP dialer on a sense rom?

You can't get 4G on CM6? Or root? Or whichever it may be?
No 4g on CM6

OP, try out Dialer One from the market, you might like it. It's what I use, whether I'm running AOSP or Sense
Are there any call screen (dialer and incoming call) replacements for Sense roms? I really hate the call screens in Sense...one of my peeves I guess. I've seen ones that I love and that look real nice in other roms (like MIUI) but I would love a customized, flashable replacement for a Sense rom that fixes the issue with the contact pic or looks identical to the one in MIUI (currently running Myn's Warm 2.2).
You can swap the files between roms, but I forget what files your supposed to swap.....hopefully someone else can help you with that

Agreed! I dislike all the white in the Sense Phone app, its very hard on the eyes during night hours...
EDIT: Spare 5min at work, I pulled the Phone.apk out of 'Nils' Business Sense' ROM and copied it over to my DInc....FAIL! Rebooted and Dialer Storage keeps FC'ing. Looks like it will take a little more thought and an actual dev's attention perhaps. Takers?

As far as dialer goes, aContact is nice(Free)

As far as call screen goes, Full Screen Caller ID is nice(about $5), but they have a add supported free version as well

I really love my AOSP roms, but to frank i hate the dialer. I love the dialer for sense. The feel is cleaner and the way it works is better. I like that i can type my contact name and the number comes up all in one screen.
Anyone know what im talking about:?
I believe there are dialers in the Market that emulate the Sense dialer.......
Try dialer one from the market

I'll agree to that, could use a face lift. But I like the way it functions better. I would love cm7 contact dialer more if it just worked the same way.

I do understand how you feel. I like to have my dialer display names as I type the first two or three characters. So, when I am on an aosp rom, I use GO CONTACTS EX, which includes an excellent Dialer that functions even better than the sense dialer.
I dl'ed this but have not tried it. Looks like something I would like if I ever went back to AOSP.

I actually posted the exact same thread months ago and while I appreciated all the feedback I to couldn't get one a really like and actually went back to a sense rom.
EDIT:
Just installed it with the new Team Blaze ICSmod7 Rom and this is definitely what I was looking for or at least as close as I can get it. Definitely switch to the dark theme IMHO but it works exactly like you need it too.
