[Q] LeeDroid Rom Sense 3.0 odd issue - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI Guys,
First post so huge apologies for any daft questions!
Before anyone asks I did try and search for the answer to this but with unfortunately no avail :-(
Ok, I am running the latest LeeDroid 2.3.3 ROM which is fantastic!
Today I added Sense 3.0 as linked on his page.
All is fine on boot and I'm presented with the new sense. However when i unlock the phone by moving the ring it reverts to my previous patten style unlock. This then leads onto my previous display/s.
The only difference i have is the way sms's are presented.
I can now see in the menu a category for lock screen has been added, but cannot seem to change any settings to allow Sense 3.0 interface to be running permanently?
I hope this makes sense to someone and many thanks in advance for any help i get.
EDIT* i have now noticed that it has the new alarm and incoming call interfaces.
I'm guessing somewhere within the software my old display needs ro be removed!
Regards
Rory

If you have the lock on in settings you can unlock with the 3.0 but you will always be prompted for the code.

Thanks for the reply!
I get that bit, but why do i lose Sense 3.0 all together? It is only there when the phone is locked.
I have just tried disabled the patten lock i had.
So now when i move the lock ring it goes straight to my old Sense displays?
Help.....

Hang on....
I'm not being stupid am I and that is all there is to this patch? Just the lock screen?
If so massive apologies!
EDIT* I doubt I being a moron
The weather page is different too, so it must be a software clash. Lee, or any other android gurus if you are reading this, any suggestions whatsoever as I reckon it is trying to run 2 versions of Sense?

You may find you have more sucess with this if you post it in Development section of the forum as they have much higher volumes of traffic/people on them.
Just a thought

Maybe your getting confused about these Sense 3.0 add-ons with Sense 2.1 etc?
If you flashed Lee's All-In-One Sense Patch (as in my signature) you just have the Sense 3.0 lockscreen, mms, weather. Installing the Rosie 3 (3D) is just the Sense 3.0 launcher, it is not full Sense 3.0, but still 2.1.
Best to install everything after Full wipe all parttions, rebooting between flashes, do not resore system apps & data, make sure clear the relevant apps data as in SEO's thread, reboot, flash Rosie 3, reboot, restore user apps & data / restore market links, reboot CWM clear dalvk, reboot, setup gmail etc and homescreens (do this last)...... I think you get the drift

Cheers that make Sense
I was starting to figure out what was going on too, but the day i posted this was after a massive session of learning how to root, change radio/kernel etc with my phone and a gps issue...... my head was not quite on straight!
Your post hits the nail on the head. I indeed only have the 3.0 lock screen, mms and weather. As of course it should be!
How do you find Rosie 3D?
Btw. Our phones apart from Rosie3D are the same software spec.

If you've flashed the sense 3 all in one, you'll find the Rosie 3D link below it on Lee's thread.

No need to answer as I can see for myself...

If you haven't already, new lockscreen options found in personalize. You can assign shortcuts to the lockscreen from there as well.
Edit: if you slow down spare parts animations to normal, weather animation shows better after pressing power button to show weather lockscreen.

What Happens if I turn Sense Off?

After looking at some stock images I've noticed that you get more icons on the bottom, whereas on Sense you get the menu, phone and add.
So basically what would I lose by turning HTC Sense off apart from the bottom bar? I currently use the Power Tools widget I think it is, the gaint clock/weather and the calendar.
You can't turn sense off on the desire unlike the hero as far as I know. I've been wanting to goto android basic for a while don't think anyone has worked how to do it

Tried and failed.
Did a search of sorts, came across launcher pro, seems good, a slight slow down at times but I think I can work with this. Lack of leap though is a bit off ...
Launcher seems alright but I tad some at times and I miss some of the HTC widgets so off it goes . Back to Sense.
HTC please let me change that bloody useless bottom bar!!!!
Agreed, its not very attractive but this will most definately be changed with the 2.2 Froyo update

I am so looking forward to it!
Saves me money though as I don't need beautiful widgets or the widget similair to the power tweak widget.
Also it remembered the last state so no moving around once I reverted back :O.
i tried the ADWlauncher and Launcher Pro too for the same reason, the bottom bar i wanted with shortcuts. but i really can't compromise the speed and smoothness of the sense ui with those ones (even if ADW is the fastest 3rd party if you tweak the settings) but most important is the DATA-INTERNET widget which cannot be added in without sense.
i hope that with froyo HTC will enable both launchers and be a user choice which one to use but still have the HTC widgets.

DamageControl ROM w/ Sense Disabled - Any Way to install the Sense/RosieUI Clock App?

Hey Folks,
I've recently rooted my device to DamageControl v3.2.3 and am LOVING this ROM. With just LauncherPro, JuiceDefender and disabling SENSE - my battery life has virtually tripled.
Of course, now I'm missing some of my SenseUI apps, namely the Clock/Alarm/Stopwatch/Timer application...does anyone out there know if this can be enabled/installed without having Sense enabled?
If it can't be enabled without going back to Sense, can anyone recommend a comparable app?
Thanks!
As far as i know, you cannot use any Sense Widgets or Apps while it's disabled. I suggest "Better Alarm" in the Market -- it's like the stock Android clock app. It doesn't have as many features as the Sense Clock, but it has enough to still be useful.
Hop that helps.
Thanks for the reply Veritas! I found a solution with a little testing...apparently re-enabling the HTC/Sense lock screen does the trick.
Immediately upon doing this, the HTC Clock app is now available for use! I'm not sure how much of a memory/resource footprint this has, but from my initial testing performance appears on par to my initial settings.
Hope this is a useful post for anyone else out there that's curious.
DC is a great ROM.

I am definitely still new to the ROM scene, but is enabling the lock screen the same as enabling Sense altogether? I still use a few HTC widgets and apps, I could replace them, but if this allows them without turning on the whole Sense UI that would be cool!

It is my understanding (and i could be wrong) but if you disable Sense but keep the lock screen enabled that you will not be able to turn off an alarm if sent using the "sense" clock. You may want to test this BEFORE you need to use it lol.

Omega, I didn't have any problems disabling it this morning. The Alarm functionality seems to be tied directly to the Sense lock screen and native app - as I was able to dismiss/and snooze with just the lock screen.
As a side note, it seems without Sense enabled I can't use the clock/weather widget...it seems to be cooked into the Sense Launcher. However, with Beautiful Widgets I don't particularly miss this feature.

Silver, I don't think the lock screen is 100% the same as enabling Sense as a whole for DC, but I may be wrong. I definitely can't use the Sense launcher w/ just the lock screen enabled, so I figure they're two separate application pieces.
I'm also still green to modding with the Evo, so maybe a more experienced modder or dev can clarify this question? *fingerscrossed*

WidgetLocker Question

I got this app up and running just fine, however, I do have a slight concern that I need help on.
My regular lockscreen is coming up after I slide to unlock using WidgetLocker....so I have to slide twice...I've searched Google, XDA and looked at all the WidgetLocker settings but cannot find anything. I have also tried two different lockscreen suppressors but no go.
Help, anyone? Sorry if its a repost and I couldn't find the exact thread that dealt with this, if any.
TGIF everyone
Found this on WidgetLocker Site:
Can I use the Android 2.2 PIN/Password lock?
Yes, but on non-Sense devices it will not be as seamless as the pattern lock. After unlocking WidgetLocker you will see the stock unlock screen, and after unlocking that you will see the PIN/Password entry. On HTC Sense devices the middle step is bypassed, but I have not yet found a way of doing this on other devices. I am looking into the manner.
Question answered..I think, but if anyone else can post if they have disabled the Android lock, I would appreciate it.
(Using stable CM6 at the moment, non-sense)
Have you tried looking in "advanced" and unchecking "retain system keyguard" in widget locker? I believe having this option checked would induce the behaviour you are experiencing. I would test it myself on my phone, but my lockscreen settings are completely bastardized. I manually removed the sense lockscreen so things behave not as planned but exactly how I like.
Disable the lock completely,app called no lock.

Death : I have that option unchecked already.
Gmaine : I tried 'NoLock' and another 5 star rated..or very close to 5 star rated app which I forgot the name to. Any particular order this goes in? Because I just have WidgetLocker running, and downloaded 'NoLock', enabled it, locked screen, unlocked and saw the same 2nd lockscreen after WidgetLocker's...
Nope no order,i was on a sense rom tho and the no lock did the trick for me.

Well, I just heard back from the main developer - it is a known issue.

[APP][SENSE 3.6/4/4A/4.5][2013/1/1 1.43]HTC Lockscreen Shortcut Provider

This is my second Android app. I develop this little app because I prefer 3rd party launcher (e.g. Apex) than existing Sense 4 Rosie. Existing hacked Sense 4 Rosie (full version) currently doesn't support non Sense widget correctly and is less feature-rich than many other launchers.
Even if you install a 3rd party launcher, Rosie still consume your precious memory as a system service. But if you freeze Rosie and thus release it from memory, you'll lose your lockscreen app shortcuts. After painstakingly reviewing the codes in HTC shortcut components, I found that Rosie actually act as a content provider to supply information of its launcher bar shortcuts to lockscreen. So without Rosie, lockscreen has no information to construct its shortcuts. Therefore I wrote this little app to replace the role of Rosie as the content provider. What's more, it allows you to select your own apps with a simple config screen and store the data separately. And it doesn't stay in the memory permanently.
Installation instructions:
Uninstall Rosie (Freezing doesn't work because Android doesn't allow two content providers of same type) ** You're reminded to make a backup first **
Install HTC Lockscreen Shortcut Provider
Run Lockscreen Shortcuts
Select your app for the 4 shortcuts
Hit back to save settings and notify HTC lockscreen
MD5: 7DE3FFB948E496767E2B1EFDAC26638E
** Currently this app has been tested to work with Sense 3.6, 4, 4A and 4.5 **
Change log
1.43
- Return shortcut title with empty space instead of NULL values if Hide app title is selected

1.41
- New option to hide app title
1.4
- Add support for Sense 4.5 (thanks Patrics83 for testing new version and support!). You MUST uninstall any previous version first.
1.3
- Add support for Sense 4A
1.2.1
- Fixed FC when loading installed apps
1.2
- Add support for Sense 3.6
1.1
- Added broadcast message to HTC lockscreen so no reboot is needed!

Yes, I captured the screen from my IncS. AFAIK, the H stands for HSDPA only.
You need to move this to the themes and apps section.

I tried this, and while the shortcuts did appear, they all only unlocked to the home screen. I followed the install instructions, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Any thoughts?

Oh, actually the app has been updated many times to support different Sense version. I thought no one use the app in this forum so I didn't update it here.
Anyway, the OP has been updated. You can try the latest version which should have fixed your issue.
This app worked great on my rezound running Sense 4. A note to everyone: reboot your phone after uninstalling Rosie/sense. I merely uninstalled it and then installed this app like the OP mentioned, and it didn't work. So I would add uninstall Rosie, reboot, then install this app. But working great nonetheless!

In Titanium backup, you need to filter for system app and then look for HTC Sense. Rosie = HTC Sense in this case.

You need another launcher installed before you uninstall Rosie. Anyway, now you just need to push, say Apex.apk, into /system/app in recovery and you should be able top use your phone again.

The app works fine as long as the box "hide app title" is unchecked. But as soon as I check it (which is what I really want to do since the titles are unnecessary), the shortcuts won't show up on the lockscreen. Any idea why that is?

[Q] Lock screen apps

So with the new exploit for 4.4 by jcase (thanks for that by the way), I have root access and s-off. Being as my m7 is still relatively new and I'm not sick of Sense (yet), I installed the stock 4.4 m7 rom. I have no complaints except for the fact that my apps do not want to show up in the lock screen. I also can't seem to add any widgets to the home screen (not that I want to but just seems odd). Anyway, wondering if this is something that I'm just missing or if it is a flaw in the rom.
Thanks

Sense 5.5 lockscreen is different then previous versions of Sense.
You only have limited widgets that you can add to the lockscreen.
You have to swipe to the side from the top right edge of the lockscreen.
To add widgets to the homescreen, tap and hold on the homescreen, you should have a bunch of widgets that can be added.
Everything works in the rom, it's stock, as HTC made it.
Sounds like you just aren't familiar with Sense 5.5 yet.
There are guides online about the changes and differences between Sense 5 and Sense 5.5 that may help you see what has changed.
I understand that the lockscreen has changed in sense 5.5. I have been using the phone for about a month. The lockscreen just doesnt give me any option to swipe in any direction. I can add widgets to the home screen, its just the lock screen thats giving me the issue. And usually if I recall correctly, on the lock screen, there are usually some translucent arrows indicating that you can swipe to add widgets, and i dont seem to have that
Thanks
There's a setting somewhere to enable lockscreen widgets. Been a while since I flashed s new Rom so I can't remember where.

So I ended up flashing a new rom with sense 6 in it so this is not an issue anymore. Thanks anyway
