I was wandering if the HTC_IME requires the HTC Sense framework to work correctly, essentially; what I am wandering is: If I pull the HTC_IME from a sense rom, and put it into my SYSTEM/[Whatever folder it needs to be in] and reboot my phone, will the keyboard work?
I know that there is a HTC Keyboard on offer on the Nexus one forum, but I want the Desire HD keyboard which has the arrow keys (this is because I find with such a large screen, pressing the keys at the bottom can result in discomfort, or sometimes the pressing of one of the soft keys..)
In essence, if anyone has any experience on the subject, please tell me what the outcome was.
Thanks for your time.
P.S. I am on a MIUI ROM, although that should not make a difference because I am only wandering about using it with any rom after being pushed to the system/app directory (or where ever it needs to go).
I am reluctant to use a Sense rom and flash a no-sense script because I do not generally like the HTC ROM's (style of the notification bar etc.)
You can use it on any rom

Hi,
I there any way to change the default incoming call screen, when the phone is locked? The problem is that when someone calls me, and the phone is in my pocket.. the process of taking it out often involves reject or answer, while the phone is still in the pocket .
I've tried some dialers, but it seems that this is a part of htc sense.
If i can divert to standard android behavior it will help too .
Regards
Tried the App; Full Screen Caller ID ?
Yes I tried it, but its not a replacement of the default call screen .

same problem here!!
I think you have to use an other phone.apk or dailer. Then remove the htclockscreen.apk.
I wanted something similar. Just remove the htc stuff and use as only lock screen the unlock' pattern and not the htc or stock lockscreen!
I got same problem here.

Likewise, upon searching for a solution... none is found... I would very much like to use CM roms but i miss the Sense T9 dictonary... thats the reason i used Leedroids... if only cooked roms are able to change the HTC dialer to the stock ones...
There are dialer apps in the market with t9. Use one of those with cyanogenmod.

I don`t understand why Google didn`t implement t9 dialer already :/ Are there any patent`s for this? :/ Stock Android dialer sucks! aTakePhone is the best so far as I know (apart of SENSE of course )
I dont use the HTC lockscreen i removed it from the rom before install (using Revolution HD rom removed with RomCleaner)
I also removed the htcdialer.apk which does revert the phone back to the standard android answer screen (so much better imo) but your back on the android dialer and the main phone button on the homepage doesn't work either if you can live with that then just remove the htcdialer.apk.
I didn't use the phone to long without the htcdialer.apk so not sure if there are other issue's also...

Okay i did this but i must be doing something wrong...
I used Titanium Backup to remove the htc dialer ( i get repeated F/C for android core process)
Pulled out the battery.
After restart, pressing the dialer button/icon have no effect
Downloaded and used launcher pro, no effect either
downloaded Dialer one, docked it with launcher pro.. works like charm
BUT!!! When i called my own phone, im still getting that stupid HTC answer screen where u slide up and down instead of stock androids left and right...

Hmm i have been scouring the net and i seem to hit something...
If my searches is correct, the answer call slide screen is tied to the HTC Framework... Coz phones like Samsung galaxy in order to revert to the stock android lockscreen, they have to replace one of their framework files... policy something IIRC...
So wondering if any dev could look into the framework and do some editing/mods/changes?

hi,
I am having the same problem, really dont like the HTC sense screens but want to keep the stock rom as i get free turn by turn nav with my provider.
I have removed the lockscreen, so it revets to vinilla, but really want to change the slide down to answer screen?
has anyone looked into the last posed question?
It is incorporated into Sense.. No way to have a stock unlock screen and Sense ROM together...
U will have to get back to stock with scripts like "no-sense" and remove stuff from the rom after flashing it.. Or just install CM rom..
OR, this is maybe a walk around which i use it sometimes:
1. Install standard ROM with sense,
2. Install WidgetLocker
3. Set it up the way you like it
4. Choose an option to "hide the caller screen"
5. So, when it rings, you have to use the slider to unlock the screen, and then you have the sense slider (up to decline, down to answer)
This prevents to answer and gives you extra options when locked..
Hope this help.

I have gone back o Launcher Pro Plus and now instead of the htc sence slider for incoming call I get a green answer and red decline button to press.
It seems better to me but might not suit everyone.
I decided to switch back to Sence to see how things stood.
Low and behold I still have the same answer screen as I had with L.P. full screen, caller ID, and the two buttons red/green.
Don't know what I did wrong but I am glad I did.
I searched a few hours for a solution of this problem and finally found one i will try now.
The App I installed is called HD Caller ID and is free.
So for you, looking for a solution try this App. Maybe it´s good for your belongings.

I don't quite know what the thing is called. That's basically my question:
Can the pull-down connectivity bar at the top that allows you to quickly turn on or off wifi, Bluetooth and GPS as well as switch between vibration and ring tone be installed on a Sense ROM?
I've encountered it on CyanogenMod 6.1.1 and rather liked it. Unfortunately, I prefer some of the HTC Sense functionality, so I switched back to the stock ROM (after learning how to uninstall uninstallable apps, that is ). But the stock does not have this bar. Where it would normaly be, there is only my network provider's name and a delete button for the messages.
How do I get this functionality back?
Regards and thank you,
it's built into the framework of a rom. If you want the feature then I suggest you install a rom with it or just use the power widget thing
Seriously? The only option is a widget? That's sad.
Afraid so, the widget notification bar thing is one of the tweaks and features Cyanogen put in CM. It is quite handy.
Back when I had my Evo there were devs making flashable zips for notification pull down controls for this so I'd assume they're around for the G2 as well. On the Evo it required a Deodexed ROM though so you might as well just flash one that already has em in it at that rate.
Hmmm... I'm just warming up to the Virtuous ROM so I don't think using Cyanogen again will be an option.
Ah, what the heck, whether I pull down the menu or scroll to the right once doesn't matter much, does it .
Thanks for the replies .
Hi,
I'm wondering if someone could help me with a MOD'ing question/request. I am running the Sprint Lovers ROM (which I just love) but there is one thing that I'd like to change...
This ROM is pretty much stock, aside from a few changes (very good ones actually), but I just can't stand the layout for the launcher/dock bar. Basically, I want to remap the buttons from APP DRAWER/PHONE/ADD+ to PHONE/APP DRAWER/MESSAGES.
There is an .apk based on the LauncherPro home replacement app which allows the user to do exactly what I'm wanting to do; however, I want the changes to be made at a permanent level (and I really like the page slider thing that slides smoothly over the hump as opposed to the one from the LauncherPro version). I don't want to use a home replacement app.
I've seen some MOD's that allow the user to flash a file which will make similar changes but the MOD's I've found do not match exactly what I'm looking to do - so I'm curious to know how I can go about getting the desired results with as little pain as possible, lol.
**update** Would it be possible to extract the installed "launcher" and simply replace it with the LP SENSE UI as the built in "launcer" ?
Thanks in advance!
HI, I have a Sense3.0 ROM, but I can't ever seem to answer a call in time!
I find it really difficult to move the green answer call button to the ring successfully. I want to keep the lock screen, but would prefer an alternative way to answer the call - any suggestions?
+1 TOTALLY AGREE - i keep missing calls!
Working fine for me...
Running Insertcoin 1.0.9 !
I don't think you can't get an alternative, unless you modify yourself your rom !
You can try to revert to sense 2.1 or 1.9 and then apply this :
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/sense-3-0-lockscreen-for-any-phone/
Just drag the ring upwards. Same gesture as unlocking your phone.
You don't have to bother dragging the answer key ...
I had the same issue, ended up ditching it and running CM7.
Could never seem to work unless I was really quick, felt like the phone couldn't cope with the unlock, was always really slow to answer.
CM7 sorted that problem right out at the expense of the sense camera :-(

Same here this issue caused me to move to CM7 but i missed Sense so much I am now back running IC 1.0.9
This problem is abit hit and miss as sometimes it works like a beaut. I also found workaround where pressing the trackpad can snooze the alarm etc.
I know you can flash back to the old Sense 2.1 lockscreen but i really like being able to shortcut into 4 different apps as well as the on screen text message dialog and stuff.
I find having a plain lockscreen (ie not weather/animation) helps with the unlock lag too
Ended up with XJ MIUI, even prettier than sense imho, and many lockscreen options

Hi,
As I use a PIN to unlock my phone, I'd like to remove the ring lock screen.
I know how to do it in CM7 but can't find it under ICS...
I'm on Leedroid ROM.
Thank you.
You can't without replacing the lockscreen for an alternative
Hasn't LeeDroid tweaks got an option to replace the HTC lockscreen with the standard ICS one?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
any luck?
Even I am annoyed with the round unlock screen.. is there any way to change it to stock ICS (or anything else) ? I am currently on the untouched Stock HTC OneX ICS
Anyways for this?
I'm fairly sure the lock screen is unchangeable on the stock ROM, custom ROM's there is usually an option to use one of the many ICS lock screens and in some cases lock screens from previous versions of Android. As for LeeDroid I'm not too sure as I have never used it, but in other ROM's the setting is usually found inside the ROM Control or ROM settings inside the settings menu.

What custom ROM's are you talking about that have options for the lock screen?
I know that the MIUI ROM uses a different lock screen, and if you don't want to use the entire ROM, you can use the MIUI Launcher app to add it to any ROM.
I too would like to simply disable or remove it somehow if at all possible.
