hello,
Can we add new lockscreen type on cyanogen like on miui rom ?
thank's in advance
you can use widget locker, i think.
but that could be great if they can put MIUI (and WP7) lockscreen theme in CM7.
waiting for that will happen
yes of course, cm7 is not customisable that's a bad thing. i prefer MIUI rom but i don't like the iphone homescreen.
i think i will try the rom WajkIUI...

Just use a different launcher then you get the draw rather then just home screens simple

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,
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
So after looking through the home screens I see there are multiple choices each with its own positives and negatives, I was wondering what the XDA users prefer?
As far as I can see there is:
*HTC Sense
*ADW Launcher
*GO Launcher
*Launcher Pro
*HeLauncher
*Zeam
*A few different gingerbread launchers
Those are the more heard of ones. So back to the original question, what is the "best" launcher?
definition of "best" is open to interpretation
Sense or Zeam
Sense for strong devices
Zeam for the weaker ones

My vote goes to Launcher pro. The customizability of the launcher is very nice.
Sense on the other hand has been tweaked to the end. The widgets are great. Only thing is, I don't like the big launcher taking up so much space, with only 3 functions. Where the customize button is the least usefull of the three lol. Furthermore, sense can be quite slow sometimes.
You might try CircleLauncher Light too (or the paid version).
It's a Widget but it's not bad.
Example here.
Launcher Pro Plus. Uses less power than Sense UI.

Can you use launcher pro plus on Cyanogen Mod or is there a way to stop sense starting up on leeroids rom?
You can use Launcher Pro on any ROM and on Sense Roms you can't remoove sense. If you don't want sense then Cyanogen or MIUI is the way for you.
Personally, I like HTC widgets, so I'm going with Sense.

What Cyanogen version should I use if I chose to?
Oh ok never really looked at MIUI
I do like leeroids though..
If your happy with how sense looks it works fine.
If you like to completly control look of phone launcherpro or adw ex are awsome.
I'm firmly settled now on Launcherpro Plus using Non-Sense version of Revolution rom to get rid of all the htc sense stuff and love it.
Zeam
My vote goes for Zeam...
I used Launcher Pro (which I bought) for a long time, but I found it very heavy after trying Zeam launcher;
I find Zeam Launcher is quite the same as Launcher Pro, but lighter...
(My Desire HD is running under CyanogenMod 6.1.3 right now)

I've tried ADW and LP when I had a Hero but always come back to Sense because I like the HTC Widgets, specifically the flip clock and all the settings widgets.
If it wasn't for that, I'd probably go with LP as it seems the most customizable.
Don't forget you can still modify the look of Sense if you don't mind editing the framework-res.apk or using some of the custom mods and themes that people on XDA have created.
I'm using ADW EX, loving the customisation it offers, also a fan of sense cause of the widgets, but after paying for a couple good ones like Beautiful Weather for clock and weather like sense do it, and Widget Locker for full customizabel lock screen, im never going back to sense again as i now have all the same features sense provided that i wanted to keep
Launcher Pro Plus because it is lightweight
Hey Guys and Girls,
I love roms,I am always flashing new ones but I have an idea and I need help getting it.So I like sense but love gingerbread,the thing i love about sense is the lock screen where i can drag the apps to the bubble.Thats pretty much it,so I want to have gingerbread as my actual home screen,app screen,and for my keyboard.I know this sounds pretty crazy but can anyone help me find a rom or apps that can help my obtain this.Answers to this quetion would be very appreciated
install a sense rom then install a launcher from the market
Sent From My Optimized HTC Incredibly Since
Agile lock from the market is a nice sense 3.0 lockscreen clone. Its still inferior as the software is a little edgy and there aren't any sms previews like the sense 3.0 one has. I currently use this with CM7 along with sms popup from the market and it works great.
Otherwise download a stable sense rom with the sense 3.0 lockscreen (Nils Gingersense, Synergy) and use a different launcher.
There's also SupraROM which is an AOSP Sense 3.0 mix, but I'm not sure if it has the sense lockscreen.

I know when I ran MIUI about a month ago there was a Sense ring lockscreen you could install in Theme Manager. The downside was I couldn't figure out how to pick what apps other than the ones it gave you. Maybe that's changed, not sure there.

Ah right, I forgot about this option.
I do believe that they can be changed. You have to edit a text file though so its not as easy as HTC makes it. There's a MIUI lockscreen thread with a few of those sense ring lockscreen alternatives. However they all have one thing in common: when releasing the ring, the screen immediately unlocks. No cool "fly through the ring" effect.

Div033 is correct on the MIUI sense 3.0 lockscreens, they look pretty much identical but lack the fancy animation.
I'm not sure what the OP means by this:

By gingerbread, do you mean the stock AOSP look? Because if so, you could use agile lock on CM7, like has already been mentioned, or maybe try the synergy rom with the warm theme. It has the sense 3.0 lockscreen but is themed with quite a few AOSP gingerbread elements.
I just installed Gingerbangvanilla 1.7 and I like it, but I was wondering if there was any way to customize the launcher, i.e. disable home screen looping, edit number of home screens, change lock screen. I came from the Fascinate and loved TSM on it but was hoping for "TSM Parts"
Go get ROM manager and tsm pool party is in there. Its a direct port from pool party on the fascinate if I'm not mistaken.

tsm parts is kind of straight forward to port to samsung touchwiz phones, but is insanely difficult (at least for me) to make work on a sense rom
i *think* i might be able to get the status bar tweaks working on it...but lockscreens are more difficult as samsung already allowed for multiple lockscreens by default in touchwiz (glass, puzzle) so it was a lot simpler (still insane)
but my focus was to make stable roms off the latest ota and add various tweaks as i could...and i think the results have been good so far

yes, poolparty is an aosp port by omj of sbrissen's version on the fascinate...if you want tsm parts on this phone thats the way to go (awesome rom!)
Right now I'm using MIUI and I'm loving it. You can get tons of different themes and lockscreens. And if you don't like the iPhone like launcher, download a different one like go launcher ex. My personal favorite. I'm using the stock MIUI launcher.

I love the stability of this ROM so I'll deal with the lockscreen and I installed GO Launcher EX. My main problem with AOSP ROMs is the mail app has a problem with Hotmail so this will work for now.

sense 3.0 lockscreen (which is available by patch for gingerbangvivow) would require rosie to work correctly...well at least to edit/use properly...as personalize doesnt work with the sense launcher (you would be stuck with whatever settings/skins u had pre-flash
alternative lockscreens are extremely difficult in sense besides aosp (well super easy) and rotary (not easy but its in the framework already)...nothing is impossible of course...just beyond my scope of abilities
