Now I don't believe anyone thought of this but is it possible someone here could just make an HTC Sense Theme? (3.0 later on?).
That way at least we'd have something LIKE Sense?
My only concern is the reason why we haven't done this is due to copyright issues of their UI, but it doesn't hurt to ask if it's possible.
Ill do it next month when I learn how to theme.

I have the LauncherPro Sense UI which is very similar. That's good enough for me atm, but I'd like to have the HTC Notification Bar, Keyboard Skin, etc.

Use SRF and you already have the notification bar! All but the battery and the pulldown are from Sense.

For some reason I really like that launcher bar at the bottom of Fresh 0.5.3. But I'm curious to take another ROM for a spin just for the fun of it.
Is there a file or theme that I can use to put that launcher back? I can't seem to find one, but thought I'd ask to be sure.
TIA
Take it out of development and go into General or Q&A.
Search the market for launchers.
But I think this would be a development issue. It's a matter of if anybody else out there has noticed a mod or .zip that somebody has developed that changes only the style of the launcher bar. Not looking for ADW, ahome, or or another launcher apk. Just a .zip file. Just a random shot in the dark to the forum.
If it helps that bar is from espresso ui

It is a Metamorph, look it up on the market, or better yet, here on xda. basically it is an easy way to theme your phone.
I use to use fresh only because of the bar. Now I'm using DC ROM with the bar.

Basically what you are looking for is an expresso rosie. There should be plenty of themes that you can apply that use that rosie. I know konikub has made a couple of themes for DC. I believe that at least one of them is expresso. May want to give that a shot.

If we're talking about the lockscreen then, like alfiej said, widget locker can fill it up with sliders and widgets. I do have a question about that link tho. Does the gingerbread lockscreen actually have multiple sliders and/or can it be customized like that on stock? Or is the multiple sliders a change made in CM6.1?

I really don't like running apps in my background (especially lockscreens).
1. They dont work all the time.
2. They take up too much memory.
I used widget locker and my phone died much faster than without it. I had my phone unplugged yesterday for 15 hours before it got down to 80%. With it, it was down at like 60%. Sorry dude.
No need to apologize dude, I just was naming what does this. I bought widget locker a few weeks ago and got a refund within an hour so I feel your pain.

What's dope about this one is above the sliders you can draw gestures and it will automatically launch those apps
I actually really like our stock lock screen because it basically has these same features. I'd probably go for this one if it was available to us because I like the vanilla layout better.

Does anyone here think that its possible to get this rom ported to the Evo 4g. I mean all that would need to be fixed are the apk's and a little bit of touch ups here and there. Since the resolution matches the Evo's.
It would be sweet!

Toouchwiz is the only way you can get a decent launcher with 4 icons in the dock and the sms application is very good looking.
HOnestly only thing Touchwiz (Samsung Android Phones Period honestly) has that I wuld be interested in is the music player.
Outside of that, I'll pass.
But for those who like it, I think it would be awesome for them.
This is XDA, just about anything is possible!!!!

I couldn't agree more...
Hold on guys, I think Touchwiz 4.0 is something different. The live tiles, widgets, zoom effects, etc are pretty nifty. 4.0 looks nothing like Touchwiz on current Galaxy devices.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p87lPeVXdCg
Touchwiz 4.0 doesn't look quite as bad.
It looks as if they have abandoned those dreadful taskbar icons? That would be a huge plus
Try ADW EX or Launch Pro. You can download different launch bars and add your icons as you wish. So TouchWuz isn't the only launcher that can handle 4 or more icons.

they all copy each other, now its just common knowwledge. people should be willing to share or copy what works. It just gets absorbed into common practice which is for the best for everyone
Have to admit that is pretty impressive I stand corrected.

Watched a couple of videos. I don't like it. At all. I like the phone though.
This should probably be moved to Q&A, nothing developmental about it.
LOL of course things are stolen from Sense. It's getting hard to find original ideas anymore but who DOESN'T steal ideas from other companies? And I told you guys TouchWiz 4.0 isn't bad; but we can all agree that the current TouchWiz is just garbage.
Want this. whats the legality?

Seems like quite a few people are at least intrested in it.
So how long do you guys think it would take to port it to give it a test run?

I think it was ported to the current generation Galaxy S phones and was still buggy. I would imagine it would be even more buggy on our phones..
Would definitely like to take it for a spin tho..
I can imagine there is one or two developers that would like to port this. May I suggest Virus or Sac23 (and teamwin). They are the big names when I think about porting things that shouldn't be on our phones.
Good Luck
By the way TW 4.0 is pretty awesome
EDIT: Oh also if you can find a system dump for the Galexy S 2 it would proably help with the porting progress.
I read the forum rules and online gambling isn't mentioned. Any good guesses on when we will be getting 4.0? I am betting $5.00 on 3/30/12.
I'll take the end of February for $0.00... They have to add all the unneeded bloatware.
Way too optimistic dates above me ^
Id say about a month after the sgs3 is released

Okay, then you just throw on the Trebuchet launcher from CM9, or even the vanilla ICS launcher, and your problems are solved.
Dang, you wouldn't even have to have Root for that. Just like when I bought this phone: Touchwiz 4.0 didn't even make it out of the Best Buy parking lot before I had ADWEX running. (and Touchwiz 4 actually had a slim chance of survival, because it's the best version they've made so far, to be sure.....)
However, ADW won out merely because of the sheer speed factor.
(And yes, I know that Touchwiz is still there, lurking underneath, but it's really almost transparent compared to HTC's Sense or Motorola's Blur thing....)

I think you should make the launcher look more in favor of the new flavor. The people app is royally renovated and I am looking the look. Any idea if you can make the theme of the whole phone look like that?
1. Making the status bar transparent
2. Vertical scrolling of the apps menu. Scroll horizontally to go to widgets menu.
3. Changing the whole background to white (pearl white) with black roboto font, or at least an option to do so.
4.to make apps on the dock bar run continuously so that there a no lag when trying to open them.(everyone I try to open the people app, it takes sometime to load and it's irritating)
5 instead of grey background on every pop up menu, a blue white themed menu options would be great. I am new to xda, so if this is in a wrong forum, please feel free to post the same in the right forum.
I greatly appreciate the work your are doing. Good luck!

My request was not exactly a theme. the status bar becoming transparent can be viewed as hiding the status bar. scrolling options is definitely launcher. and keeping the dock icons in homescreen running use definitely launcher again. and yeah dude you missed something. And as long as you don't do anything productive there's no need to lol. And this is me being polite.

What values would i have to change to make the app drawer in our SENSE launcher transparent?
Can someone please teach me step by step?
i don't believe anyone has figured this out yet
I'm waiting for a semi transparent appdrawer.. But i guess it's pretty difficult
Yeah, no one I know of has found it yet. I've done tons of background changes, additions, redirecting. Nothing works yet. I've been thru about half of the Smali in Rosie looking for a hack, but no luck yet. Hopefully soon someone can crack it, its one of my favorite mods as well.
