Okay so here's my problem.. I'm using a very popular rom with sense and have adw launcher on top of it.. what Im trying to do is have very customised homescreens with special icons and everything.. and I also want some HTC sense features such as the msging app camera app etc.. what I don't want is HTC sense homescreens and all tthe widgets and stuff.. right now i have exactly what I want but there's a problem.. everything lags.. running just ssense is flawless but with adw launcher and the theme I have (maxdroid; NOT my work) makes everything very slow and laggy.. I've tried clearing the HTC homeacreens of all Widgets and app shortcuts and have even overclocked tto 1.6.. still laggy..
Is there ANY way I can get this arrangement to work? Any and all suggestions are welcome.. is there a rom which has sense apps ( camera msging etc) but with a custom launcher? Should I use a different launcher ? What's a vanilla rom? Maybe that's what I need? Help me out guys!
Thanks in advance!

Hi all!
Is it possible to make a ROM that contains something from Sense and something from Touchwiz?
I really like the way Samsung does with the icon in the menu, by swiping to right and not a long list that goes down, like HTC does. And the four icons Samsung has at the bottom looks nicer and more useful, that HTC's bottombar.
But I like Sense better overall, that's why I'm wondering if it's possible for me to get a rom with Sense but also with the four bottom icons and the swiping to rinht in the menu (I mean where all of the apps are).
PS! I also like how the dropmenu looks like in Samsung and that you can delete and add as many homescreens as you want.
If you really want the side swipping application screen, just install ADW Launcher
Not a usefull answer guy. He want Sense!
I think in future there will be a modified Sense Version like Launcher Pro for now the only way is to develope it
Or try the rom from ephumuris [ROM] Gefrost Galaxy S Style A2SD, Touchwiz, Music mod

But isen't that a ROM just with Touchwiz and not Sense?
Best you can do atm is install the Samsung Galaxy launcher on top of a Sense rom. Then you will have all the good sense apps (mail, browser, gallery).

Yeah but none of the widgets. However there are a lot of good replacements. That is the best solution for this guys problem though.
I have the same "problem" ...
I want the coloured square background behind the icons in appdrawer.
I started mixing up files from touchwiz.apk and rosie.apk, but first try results in no sense available anymore
I will continue mixing until I get a result!
Someone knows which files are for the appdrawer in the apk???
Hi there! I just flashed CM6 RC2 and its great! What isnt so great is, that I can no longer use my sense widgets! The clock looked awesome. The contacts app and the dialer were great too!
Is there an option to flash some parts from sense with an update.zip and if so, can I still use ADW launcher which comes with CM6 or isnt this possible?
Im sure CM is Stock Froyo and not sense, which means none of the Sense stuff is installed. You would need to use a Sense rom to use these.
OP try Fancy Widget for the clock. Although you may have to search online as HTC had it removed from the market for copying lol.
Also dialerone with the light theme is close-ish to the sense dialer.
yup, CM is stock Froyo.
The thing is that I want to use CM but with sense.
It would be even better to use CM with the ADW Launcher.
Can you please point me out to a thread where I can read how to cook such a rom?

Read the post above you.
Google Fancy widget and try that.
Try DiallerOne for the dialler.
If you use Launcher Pro then there are sense style Calendar, Bookmarks, Messaging and Contacts widgets with that.
The HTC widgets depend on HTC Sense. No HTC Sense = No HTC widgets.
No.
There is no replacement for HTC friendstream, news, message or mail widget and especially not for the album and direct Facebook sharing.

ty!
Fancy widget is okayish to replace the clock/weather widget.
I also installed and already purchased Launcher pro a feew minutes ago cus it is simply a great app!
The only thing I am missing now are the sense contacts and the sense clock app.
I know that I cant use the widgets with Launcher Pro but is the following thing possible:
-flashing a sense rom
-use Launcher Pro as launcher
-use sense contacts and sense clock? I am not talking about the widgets but about the apps?
Will try this out tomorrow but maybe you can save me the hassle if it isnt even possible

no, even if u have a sense rom, if you use launcher pro or any other launcher, then it disables sense and you cant use any of the sense stuff.

Hi,
is this possible, can i use the widgets from sense in the launcher of zeam? Becuase i like the sense widgets, but i more like the launcher and the speed of the zeam ...
thx
Notb really, any launcher dependant widgets can't be used without that launcher whether its sense, LP or whatever....
and then there was root....
Well I do have root, how can i get sense widgets into the zeam launcher, or into any other launcher?
thx

It is not possible to use sense widgets with anyother launcer, you can get sense style widgets using launcher pro plus.
I'm using LPP on my desire z and its really quick and stable,

That's very disappointing, i mean, there has to be a way to kinda 'unlock' the widgets from sense in other launchers, because the stock google ones CAN be used... or maybe intigrate the widgets from htc into the google widgets data base in the rom or something.... maybe i should check that out, maybe its just as easy as copy paste tho i dont really think so...

It's not that simple. Sense is an more interlinked build of android than a stock android build. You want to take the widgets out from the rosie launcher and put them onto a third party launcher, am I right? So you will need to decompile the launcher and remove the widgets, then integrate them into the kernel. But WAIT! You will also need to port over the necessary framework parts. Okay, you've done all that and the widgets are there. But WAIT! They don't work! So know you need to backport the HTC apps that relate to that widget. By the time you are done with that, you pretty much have an entire sense build, thereby defeating the purpose. Basically, unless you know a LOT of backsmali, you won't be able to do this.
The are alternative widgets on the market, for example Beautiful widgets, fancy widget, pure calendar widget, etc. Launcher pro plus also has nearly all of the imitation sense widgets built in too.
haha i already thought it wouldnt be that simple... looks like i really don't have the programming skills to climb this mountain, to bad . Thx tho for the explanation. I got smarter again
Is there a way to disable the Sense UI on wildfire s?
I've found a lot instructions to turn it of, but they seem not to work on gingerbread. So did anyone found a way to restore or install the old fashioned android ui?
Thanks & Cheers
So, you need to fully off it? Or only launcher. You can install other launcher(There are many good launchers in market, including standard 2.3), and, if you want, delete with root uninstaller system apps that you don't want to see on ur phone.
There are no roms without sense right now, waiting for a normal port of CyanogenMod7.
yes, would be nice to fully off it, but just to have a look if i like the standard one. (so i dont want to erase the whole thing)
cyanogen mod would be rly nice, but they still have problems with porting the bluetooth and stuff. but yes, im looking forward to flash it, as soon as possible.
what launcher includes the standard 2.3, can u tell me?

There are one launcher(Gingerbread launcher) - standard gingerbread launcher without settings, i think, pretty sluggish... I would recommend a "LauncherPro" - Very good launcher with much of settings, too smooth.. And. if you wish, will look like standard 2.3 launcher, but too better. But other launchers won't disable Sense at all ))
There is no possible to remove Sense UI. You can put alternative launcher, but this is not what you want. You will need some alt. ROM, but there is not much released yet, that will give you what you want.
well thanks guys.
so i'm gonna wait for an clean wfs rom.
You can also use a launcher, choose default actions to use only the Launcher when asked (I recommand LauncherPro or GoLauncher).
Then you go to applications management and erase HTC Sense data so it will occupy 0Mb on your internal memory.
Out of curiosity why would anyone want to remove the Sense UI, it's one of the best Stock Launchers I've come across, Sony Ericssons Launchers are rubish compared to Sense, the Stock Gingerbread Launcher is rubish compared to Sense, the only other Stock Launcher that isn't that bad that I've seen is the LG Optimus Chat (C550) froyo Launcher?
But for other Launchers adw Launcher is quite a good Launcher and very coustomizable.

I rooted my phone, downloaded and installed Stock Gingerbread Launcher and then used root file explorer and went into system/apps, then deleted Rosie and restarted my phone then went back and located the HTCLockscreen and deleted that and I now have a 2.3 Stock Looking Gingerbread Home Screen With Widgets, and A Stock Gingerbread Lockscreen, has nice Nexus S Looking Clock on the lockscreen too!!!!
In HTC supertool v3 there is a de-sense option. Haven't tried it though..

Hi
im using gingersense 4 now for a few days ->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680418
and everything is fine but "westito" deleted the widgets for some reason so now i want my music, calculator and my weather information back.
So could anybody help me to get the stock widgets ?
thx
somebody ? xP
You cannot use Sense widgets without Sense launcher.
Gingersense 4 has xperia launcher, so it us useless to leave Sense widgets in rom, you cannot add them to screens.
Dowload from market apw (android Pro widgets), there are also nice ics skins (not for free).
to bad
thx
