[Q] Sense 3.0 Lock Screen for an Unrooted Desire Z? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody. I have an unrooted Desire Z with Gingerbread and Sense 2.1. Because of feeling noob, I am scared to root my Desire Z, but also I really want to use Sense 3.0 lock screen. Is there a way for me?
Thanks

Not without rooting I'm afraid. I'm currently using virtuous 2.0 which is based off the official DZ GB release. With the sense 3.0 lockscreen and it rocks.
If you need help rooting head over to #G2ROOT irc and they will be happy to help

Any way you could link to a thread/post on how to get that lockscreen on ROMs other than Unity? I remember seeing bits and pieces of how but I cant search because I'm on my phone at the moment.

Doesn't that suck up a ton of memory?

You must root your phone. I recommend Virtuous Unity or Virtuous 2.0, both with the overclocked Unity B4 kernel. Good luck!

I am using the sense 3.0 lockscreen with Virtuous 2.0 as well. Whilst I dont play lots of 3d games etc I dont have any problems with memory.
It really does run well.

Running Sense 2 OR 3 requires, in my opinion, removing unneccesary apps with Titanium to free up space. I took out WiFi calling, the drm, the email and stock apps/widgets, and Facebook/Twitter.

Thanks,
I have installed that app and it works nice. but sometimes I have to unlock both lockscreens original one and agile. Is there any other way to replace the original one.
I was thinking about something like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054444
Because I would also like to see that nice music widget on lockscreen and some other stuff.
I have downloaded and install app from that thread but when I restart phone I still have old lockscreen.

Download "No Lock" from the market. It disables the stock lockscreen so you can use agile lock or any other lockscreen

does anyone know if you can delete the stock htc 2.1 lockscreen using titanium back up??
thanks

Where can I get the HTC Contacts, Calendar, and Dialer Apps?

Hey guys.
I've got DeFrost 1.5f running on my desire, and I love it, but I want the HTC Calendat, Contacts, and Dialer apps back. I much prefer those over the apps that are built into Froyo. How do I go about getting those apps back?
I think you can't. AFAIK, they're built into Sense using HTC framework. I would love to know if there's a way aswell...

Correct. You cannot get those apps without Sense
Okay. Is there any way for me to install Sense on this phone without using a whole new ROM?
Nope

plain android rom

I wood really like a rom which is just plain android (no htc sense ui). As I would like to use launcher pro beta as my home. Or even better a method of removing sense ui from stock rom.
Thanks

I would suggest you try one of the Froyo roms if you are wanting a rom without sense ui.

why would you want a nexus one :s its an ugly desire with less ram
In retrospect, i would probably have chosen the nexus too, just for the quicker release of OTA updates from Google. But with this in mind, and when the Desire officially receives the Froyo update, wouldn't updates be released quicker through HTC if they get rid of sense ui?...

I hate sense to. Its the stupiest of all home screen. But installing anything else means rooting which I dont like just now.
It is impossible to use any ROM except the stock ROM on a non-rooted desire.

Wow, why get a phone with Sense if you're going to complain?
Try out adw launcher or the stock Nexus One launcher us available for download as well. You do lose all things Sense if you use it though.

Check out nimbu.amorvi.com
I found the stock launcher here and installed it on my Desire and used it with no problems, you can also find the really cool gallery app from the Nexus One here which has some really cool features that I wish HTC hadn't taken out ie date/location grouping.

I don't hate sense. I do hate the sense homescreen which i have replaced by launcherpro. But the facebook integration and the interface changes do make an addition imo! It could be smoother though ,hope that changes in 2.2

presently there is a single gingerbread sense rom by danne_jo. It wont even boot and is for development purposes only. So, if u want gingerbread, only way is to go with AOSP roms of CM7. U can have android widgets alternatively, but i think they are not as good as sense widgets.
there are a lot of froyo sense roms. I think wildpuzzle suits your need.
Thanks for the replys I am going to try wildpuzzle, is there anyway to flash it without a SD card as my card reader has broke

NOOOOO WAYYYYY. There is no "USB on the Go" support to read external memories (and that too from a custom recovery menu).
Is it the card slot of phone that is broken. Or is it the usb card reader that is broken. Im expecting the card slot is broken.
[Anyway if usb card reader is broken, we do have the usb cable to be used as disk drive. Wildfire without usb cable cannot be expected, as it is a part of charger.]

wma support?
Can you add .wma support in the music player?
Thanks for an awesome rom btw, i have been waiting for a sense 4.0 rom
Is there any link for the kernel by itself or is it only available as part of the installer package? And does it include the battery fix and calibration fix? Thx for the great progress, looking forward to a stable release.

Does Wi-Fi work now? Its something like this in the changelog, but wifi is not under "Not working" ?!
Will you be bringing 720p recording to this rom?
I'd vote for the Google apps on /system/app to be moved to /data/app as once they update they'll go there and just use space in /system. Also, I'd vote to remove the bulky Laputa and car padding but each to his own

Hey, v3 does install via recovery with fastsy hboot but gets stuch on one x animation screen, after lots of battery pulls didnt help, i know you tested it but im not sure how far ya went with install....
In my opinion its better now to wait for an official update from shaky himself. And stop downloading and installing the previous releases. I know that he knows what he is doing !

Is this gonna be made for the htc desire cdma too? Thanks
Suggestion on building the rom
I don't think it a good idea to support all kinds of HBoots at such an early stage of building the ROM--they only increase the trouble in testing for now.
My personal suggestion is to set down to FATSYS, or plus Stock at most.
When the ROM gets stable, more HBs could then be added for wider support...
Perhaps i'm just too urge to see your fantastic works...

I personaly agree with you. I think it's better to get a working ROM from Shaky on one or maybe two HBs at the most, because it's a lot easier to change your HBoot than developing an entire ROM for each individual HB at the same time.

This is because we are using Sense 4 Lite, which is the version on the One V. Sense 4 Lite only has 5 homescreens, and does not have leap view. Sense 4.0 does have leap view and have up to 7 homescreens which you can remove and add. Also, HTC removed the rotation as its a gimmick to them in Sense 4

OK HTC remove that options to get a better performance, i find it is ok when its help to increase the performance.
Do Sense 4.0 and/or Sense 4.0Lite have HomeScreen Roatation (Landscape Mode)?

It's present in the code. But its disable by HTC. I believe the only way to access it is to plug it into a HDMI tv and use HTC MediaLink HD.
