Launcherpro (just download in market for free) is awsome...and not much different from what I remember from my Hero in 2009.
not without a rom. I don't know of any available. What did you like about sense that you're looking for?
There is also helix launcher
Sent from my DEFY using XDA app
i liked the live animated weather that was in the background. i have it on my raphel and i like watching it. sorry for the responce time i have been rather busy though

hopefully the defy will get the attention of some serious Dev's and Chef's. I'm currently on a G2 but have been keeping my eye on this Defy as a work phone. The price has dropped and we have root and recovery so I may pick one up. Would be nice to have a OEM Htc port of sense
Hi I hope no 1 will be disappointed by my question.
I know that the sense widgets require the rosie framework.
I need to understand this: is it possibile to cook a new rom on the galaxy nexus putting the HTC framework and widgets?
Is it a long and hard work?
Thank you all for your time
Massive, huge no!!
This will be impossible until HTC Sense with Ice Cream Sandwich is launched. So your probably looking at 6+ months since HTC is very slow now.
and even then, considering this is a samsung device, it's incredibly unlikely that sense will be ported.
basically, if you want really want sense, either find replacment widgets in the market, of which there are many, or return your nexus and get a sense phone.
ICS for the Sensation is apparently out officially in 2 weeks
And it's already leaked

... not sure why anyone would want this but Android is all about options.
I used to think HTC Sense looked cool back in the G1 days but now their launcher bar looks weird with the app drawer icon
I know, I have the RUU and ran my own build on my Sensation before it hard bricked itself (need to send it to HTC at some point!!)
I currently have a HTC Incredible 2, and my contract is almost up, and so I was thinking of getting the Galaxy Nexus for Verizon.
Anyways have some questions about it.
1) Since the Verizon version is currently only running 4.0.2 and not the latest version, I was wondering if the unlocked version official 4.0.4 ROM will work on the Verizon one? If not would it be easy for a developer to just port the official ROM to it, so it will the Verizon Nexus will run exactly as it should(the unlocked Nexus) without bugs?
2) Does ICS have a T9 dialer built in? With my HTC Incredible 2 I can just dial someone I want by typing in the first letters of there names with the dialer.
3) Will we except to get a delay just like the Nexus S 4G had, for when we get Jellybean(when the next Nexus comes out). And will it run slow just like since Nexus S runs ICS pretty horribly right now.
1. i believe verizon does have 4.0.4 updates out, if not you can flash the official update manually.
2. yes it has T9 dialer included.
3. We should be the one of the first phones to get Jellybean.
So if it does have the 4.0.4 updates out, then why do people still complain that it doesn't?

No, ROMS are not compatible from CDMA to GSM versions and vice versa. It will severely mess up your device.
There are leaked 4.0.4 builds for the CDMA model, but again they're not official, just leaks. That's why people are complaining.
2) Does ICS have a T9 dialer built in? With my HTC Incredible 2 I can just dial someone I want by typing in the first letters of there names with the dialer.

There are 3rd party replacement dialers. The stock dialer doesn't do this, and is a highly requested feature from Sense (which you have).

Well the current situation shows that the CDMA model will get updates a bit slower than the GSM model. This is just going to happen since Verizon has to do their own testing and add their own network stack to what Google approves and moves out. It won't be a HUGE delay, but it'll be there. Think of it this way: Google isn't going to hold back a GSM update if the CDMA one isn't ready to go. When one's done, they'll release it.
Now remember, CDMA and GSM models don't need the same fixes/changes. As we noted above, the ROMs are not compatible. They are different devices when it comes to network connections (obviously). Fixes for one are not fixes for the other. Just because one gets 4.0.4 doesn't mean the other will. It may get 4.0.5 or .6, then GSM will get 4.1 and CDMA will get 4.1.1, etc...
As far as Jellybean goes, who knows? No one knows what the requirements will be or how long it'll take to get onto the GNex. It'll be slower, no doubt, but one of the reasons ICS is "slow" on the Nexus S is that Gingerbread to ICS was a HUGE jump. We don't know how big that jump will be to Jellybean.
About the leaks would you say they run just as well as the official 4.0.4 that is out on the unlocked Galaxy Nexus phones?

I dunno I don't have a Verizon device (so glad for many reasons) so you'd have to ask them. It is a leak and not official, and it was leaked quite a bit ago, so its far from prime time ready.
Some other stuff I wanted to ask are the 4.0.4 ROMs for this device stable just like the official ROM is? Like AOKP or CyanongeMod 9 will they run stable on the Verizon Galaxy Nexus so we can get 4.0.4?

It will never be as stable as stock 4.0.4 when it OTAs. As I said they're integrating a leaked build and also commits from the GSM 4.0.4 update. Its a Frankenstein type of deal. There will undoubtedly be bugs.

Well the main reason I want a Galaxy Nexus for is to not even put in custom ROMS. Cause sorry to say but lots of times they are just really buggy and non stable compared to the OTA updates. They could be better such as having a newer version of Android in it but also buggy as well. I just want something that works, and that's why I decided to get the Nexus.

Yeah but custom roms on a nexus are a little different than custom roms on other devices cause the full code is available. Not true with other devices. Nothing is hidden so no hacks are needed to get things to work. Custom roms can be coded as good as stock rom if the devs want.
Did some research and found out that Verizon controls the Galaxy Nexus updates and not Google. But why does Apple control the Verizon's iPhone updates, and not Verizon? Couldn't Google do the same?
Because Verizon bends over for Apple.

You would think so. But Google just bent over to get Verizon to play ball. Corp bull**** at its finest. Apple just has the balls to say my way or go screw yourself. Sigh...
Would you say that it would be a smart choice to get the Galaxy Nexus in August? Because I am either going to get that phone, or maybe I should wait to see what the iPhone 5 is?
Just switched to android after years of being an iphone user.
Got a HTC One X (in New Zealand) which as ICS 4.0.3 and 1.26.781.2
After installing ARHD 5.2 a bunch of games that did work on stock are either crashing to desktop or rebooting the device itself.
Anyone else getting this issue?
Pretty sure it installed correctly, sais the ARHD version in settings.
Using clockwork to revert back to stock until ****s fixed :/
...
And You Chose The One X?
...Why?
Crashing on stock ROM?? Don't know....
Try contacting the CC of the game or app or contact where you bought your device from, HTC.
should of waited for the s3 cos samsung phones never crash htc do alot
andd the iphone........well its **** don't use a fruit phone
Sounds like they weren't purchased from the market or the fact you're running something custom.

Correct, they weren't purchased from the market.
Seems that apps designed for Tegra are working fine, guess more will come online the longer this device has been around.
Don't know what you HTC haters are *****ing on, these phones are badass, so powerful.
Samsung user just **** out of these forums and don't say s3 rocks. It will sucks soon as soon it gets out. Let me count on you *****es.

If you stick with the apps from the market, you won't have to worry about this. Only compatible apps show in the market.
