Fullscreen HTC Sense - Windows Mobile Software Development

Fullscreen HTC Sense. Does a tweak/mod to get this exist? Is it possible?
Sometimes when stuff goes bugged this happens, but it looks so much better.

If you want to go fullscreen, why not try the Max sense edition(energy roms). I know it has its restrictions, but still.. Its pretty awesome!

There is the possibility to have the home page in fullscreen. You have to have CHT and CHT Editor installed if not already in the rom you are using.
[I guess that it is helpful when one asks for help to be more specific with device and rom so as to get more specific answers]
You have to enable the CHT Softkeys in softkeys under CHT Editor. That will make Home Screen and only Home Screen appear in fullscreen. The other tabs though will remain as are.
Hope that this will cover you if you haven't still found out an answer. Take care.

This is probably the closest thing to what you are asking for.

Size of HTC HOME Plugin

the HTC Home plugin takes up sooo much of the the today screen. Any way to make it smaller, sleeker? would really make things soo much better.

I totally agree. I have many appts in my calander and the home plugin makes me scroll far more often than necessary.
I'd at least like to remove scroll bars if i could figure out how.. A search only showed me how to make them smaller.
Is it possible to change the color of the HTC Home app? The black doesnt really match my vp3G 2.0 rom.

Landscape on the HD, how?

Hey everyone,
i just wanted to know, how can i make the HD's screen go Landscape whenever i want to?
tnx
Hi,install HD tweak,activate rotation screen ( 17.8) and choose left softkeys to rotate the screen . Otherwise you can use,gsen,gyrator,mobile magic to choose which application you want to rotate .
Thank you very much Marcdu81!!
But . . . Manila look like rubbish in landscape. Unless you have the newer version installed. Dutty 1.8 & 1.9 contain it. and the newer ROMs by more cooks have it in newest products. But the problem is, although it is faster, works in landscape and has a nice calendar tab, most mods and tweaks for the older Manila don't work for it; including like color topbar, 15 tabs, icons and backgroundforallpages don't work. So for time being its a mixed blessing. But give it a bit of time New versions of all the old tweaks and mods will be available eventually.
Hey
when i prees the option to rotate the screen to landscape mode, it works great, but after i get out of the "Settings" screen it goes back to portrate mode...
why is that?
is it any related to the device Rom?
the Rom version i have is 1.19.831.0
i dont know what Dutty Roms are...\=
thanks for your answers!
Hi, can somebody help me to answer my question?
I like to have a landscape theme (mode), but I don´t know how to do it.
I´ve heard, that there is no way to get a landscape unless I flash my phone to another rom, what I actually don´t want, because the phone is still under garanty.
Is it true or does it gives another way to get a landscape?
I would like this too, going landscape without having to install a new ROM or something.
I use AEB+ to map the OK button to rotate 90 degrees (and back) so with a double press on that key I get rotate whenever I want. I did not want an automatic rotate like with gyrator.
AEB+ is shareware but the non-registered works great and has almost 100% functionality:
http://ae.inc.ru
Thx for your Info,
but the rotation is not a propblem it´s an secondary issue.
I can rotate my screen, but than I will get just the half of the screen, means only the clock on the left side and on the other half side I don´t get anything.
So, the question is, is it possible to get a "theme" or a cab of "manilas" to have the possibility to change the screen with a nice view, without to change the rom?

Customizing the Lock Screen

I would like to learn how to customize the lock-screen for the HD2 I am looking for a tutorial but have not found much.
I don't really want to mess with the rest of the phone just the lock screen for now.
s2u2 is okaaay and the CHT 1.7.1 lockscreens whilst looking nice behave like crap on my phone getting stuck all the time and even though it's disabled the HTC lock cames back every now and then, it's a lot of butthurt and I'd like to have a play.
So yeah, is there a tutorial for working on just the lock-screen of the default manila 2.5 lock screen?
What about these type of customizations?

Commercial advice ...
In fact the most customizable you will find, but yes not free.
haha thats what i thought xD
a user named pckshd (=pocketshield) will of course advice pocketshield ...
but dont think that pocketshield is crap, its very good with many options...
if youre lookin for a free alternative, take a look at the lockscreens in cookies home tab editor, there you can for example set the HD mini Lockscreen =)
cheers,

Landscape as default orientation?

Is there some kind of cvar/mod/hack/.. to change the default orientation from portait to landscape?
In AOSP only ofc.
no ideas about that? :/
You could try putting your phone into landscape then turning orientation off.
That is the only easy way I know of to keep it that way, if you use a widget then you can easily turn it back on when you want to change back.
it goes back to porttrait immediately when disabling auto-rotate. (via a homescreen widget)
any further ideas?
shouldnt there be a way to do so since the motorola droid has everything in landscape when hw-keyboard is open?
can some dev please give his opinion on this please?
just wanted to add that after trying landscape mode for a while, I think it would be annoying as the default or only layout option since it requires two hands pretty much for even the most simple use.
portrait allows thumb (if you're talented) or index finger (if you're flexible) single handed tapping usage.
i prefer landscape mode in all situations. i always hold my hero sideways but dont want to wait like 2 sec for it to turn around.
so again, is there a way for doing this?

since the silence here is suggesting that no developers are going to (or are able to) help you out, I suggest you try playing with the slide rom that has sense rotation enabled.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=666640
it's not perfect, cant' record video, some issues that eventually always make me want to switch back (notably if you use exchange the contact list doesn't join contacts from exchagne email, gmail email, and active directory email... but it should and does in non-slide roms).
But it has the fastest launcher screen rotation of any hero rom I've used, faster than vanilla + launcherpro and far more stable in how it senses screen rotation. it's a sense rom that is actually designed to work as well landscape as portrait.
it doesn't rotate instantly, but it's noticeably faster turning (for me using only it's built in array of sense widgets) if you want to use horizontal layout. And it stays in place better - you know how annoying it is when launcherpro has rotation enabled and you move your phone a bit and suddenly it's redrawing sideways for the next 6 seconds... well I haven't found that to be much of an issue in that slide rom.
There are still a couple of parts that dumbly don't rotate, or at least not in the default settings I tried (contacts for example and settings are I think still portrait - stupid mistakes on HTC's part).
If you nandroid first or bart first if you use an ext partition then you have no worries in flashing the above rom to at least give it a try.
This is one area where the new iphone seems to win out I'm afraid - it's launcher screen rotation is really nice, animated, quick, stable and very useful.
Dammit LoL
good luck, post your findings please!
thank you for your effort but that rom you suggested does not meet my requirements and i cant say that i like the modified rosie that is used here. :/

that's fair
At least I tried
If an actual rom developer had a solution for you it would be more interesting!
have you considered talking to one of the 3rd party launcher developers? such as the guy who makes launcherpro, the adw guy(s), and so on?
Maybe that is where your solution lies?
That combined with maybe talking to one of the cyanogenmod developers themselves (who aren't hero-specific, you'd have to google their home website)?
Cyanogenmod might be able to add an option for 90 degree rotation only (with no zero degree switching). or at least show you how to change it yourself.
Good luck!

different phone app

Is there any rom or flashable zip to change the phone app to something nicer?
I absolutely hate the stock answer screen, it annoys me that sometimes I can't pull the slider or it let's go of it. not to mention the dialer, it looks so crappy :/
Right now I'm on MIUI and the answer screen is absolutely perfect, but I'd like to get back on samsung fw with few mods, and this keeps me from doing that.

You can find some dialer apps on the market by searching for "dialer": https://market.android.com/search?q=dialer&so=1&c=apps
hate the people who only read briefly through the topic, I'm mostly annoyed by the answer screen and I'd like the dialer to be default, there are few roms that have changed dialer that's why I asked, but I'd like to know about the answer sliders also.

There is no way to change those. Only way is some themes that theme the sliders as well (but in the end, they're still sliders)

....need the same too!!
well the miui phone app is great, answer screen has a drag down slider, it's so much more confortable to use it.
I don't know.. maybe it's a problem with vertical drag or something, on miui you can also change lockscreen to be iphone style, it looks exactly, but if I drag the arrow it's glitchy while the drag down slider works flawlessly.
so, does the samsung fw support changing the answer screen to something else?

i have the EXACT same problem. also trying to find a other phone.apk, setting the home button as answer is NOT a solution.
Hanger you guys looked at Widgetlocker in the market, it will change the lock screen and answering sliders...
WidgetLocker does not change anything else than the lock screen.
