[Q] Sense 3 lock screen - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to install the lock screen from Sense 3 to Sense 2?
I've tried this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089069&page=12
but is not working for me.

there are roms like the insert coin port from siulmagic, which actually is sense 2.1 with sense 3.0 parts in it:

or you take the lookscreen from here (i think you have to add the weather too):

Somebody posted a flashable file for the Sense 3 lockscreen on here a couple months ago. Think it was supposed to work on most or all Sense 2.0 ROMs for our phone. If I recall correctly, you have to be a bit careful, if you choose one of the lockscreens like Weather/Friend Stream, you need to also have the Sense 3 version of that app or things might get screwed up. Use the Search function, and you should be able to find it.
Also, InsertCoin ROM is Sense 2, with some Sense 3 features, including the lockscreen. I haven't tried it myself, but plenty on here seem to like it.

Ah, hoffmas beat me to it, while I was typing my reply. And did a better job by finding and posting the links.
There is also a G2/Desire Z specific thread on here, about getting the Sense 3 lockscreen onto the phone. But the thread hoffmas posted (Sense 3 ports) may be better, as it also contains all the other Sense 3 pieces that you may need/want, like Weather.

i have to catch up with postings... i´m using customs roms for a while now (started with htc magic) but didn´t post til now

Thank you guys, worked fine!

[Q] Changing the rotation animation in sense 3.0 and 3.5?

Is there a way to change the 3d rotation animation between screens in sense 3.0 and 3.5? Its a thing that is keeping me away from custom sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs cause it usually lags when changing screens, and i really like the simple sense 2.0 rotation bewtween screens. Thanks for your answers.
just to bump it once maybe somebody can help me with this
I'd say that ain't possible, as Sense is kind of locked and limited by HTC's decisions.
But I saw something about an animation trigger in Android 1.6 kernel/system options, may still be in 2.x versions.

[Q] Best Roms for G2.

Members...can you please suggest some good & completely working ROMs for G2 (with Sense 3.0 preferably) ...
Havent tried them yet, since im still unrooted, but i've done some extensive research of the available roms with sense (reading through all the threads, and comments...) and have narrowed the list with a top 3 which im considering using:
in order of preference (from what i've researched of course...and this is personal):
1)MikRunny v1.01
2)RunnyDrOiD v3.0
3)BeatMod BlissSense Hybrid
Hope this helps, but again, havent tried them yet...

If you're looking for something with Sense I would recommend Virtuous or CoreDroid ROMs.
http://www.virtuousrom.com/
http://www.coredroidroms.com/site/
different releases of those you can find in the development section aswell.
so far I've tested Affinity and Unity latest releases from Virtuous and they seem fine.
If you would change your mind and rather want a smooth fast ROM instead a Sense one (that's pretty much the deal I guess, Sense ROM are propably always slower) I would tell you to go for Virtuous G-lite:
[ROM][12/12/2011] Virtuous G-Lite v2.0.1 :: GB AOSP HTC/G2 base 2.16.531.5
Running it atm, makes me really satisfied I rooted my phone
Ofc there are many other CM7 based ROMs around, you just have to try them out yourself to find what suits you best I guess.
Goodluck

Most every ROM in the development section is "good and completely working" aside from a couple listed as alphas, and the ICS ROMs (which still have some bugs, but many still use as daily drivers).
There is no "best" ROM. It depends on your personal needs and preferences. Asking what is "best" is an insult to the developers that put a lot of time and effort to get these ROMs to us. Threads like this are tiresome, since they get asked all the time. Just browse or search the forum, and you will find plenty of suggestions.
If you like fast and simple look go with CM7
It is a valid question

No need to be harsh; Not all ROM's are the same, there are some which perform better than others. We do appreciate the work being done by developers, but I think you were unfairly harsh to the person who asked that question. It is a valid question
Why Sense?
Far as ICS Roms go, the one in my signature has been my favorite of the batches (basically a customized Rom using the CM9 Kernel with AOKP user base and his own G2/Vision specific tweaks).
my favorite sense roms were Virtuous Primadonna v1.21.0 Alpha 3 and InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. out of sense 3.0-4.0 roms that i tried only the primadona had a working camera but audio recording didn't work in some apps. those roms are pretty slow... if you really want sense i'd recommend InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. it was the only one that had working camera and audio that i tested. in any event you'll eventually get annoyed with how slow all the sense roms are if you like tweaking your phone often. that's why i switched to ics. the adroma mimicry is the fastest rom i've tried.
Andromadus Mimicry (1.1.2) gives you ICS in CM9 flavour with some additional tweaks (V6 supercharger, OC daemon etc.) and customizations (boot animation). Some of them you can choose at install time. It's fastest and most stable CM9 based ROM so far. I'm using it as a daily driver and I am fully satisfied.
I agree with people suggesting AOSP ICS ROMs. I also liked Sense until I tried CM9 beta for the first time and now I don't think that I'll ever use Sense again. You can try this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687324) if you want something that resembles Sense 4, but is fully functional unlike current Sense 4 ROMs for DZ.
I'd suggest you try the one in my sig, though, that's what I'm using right now and it's really fast and stable, but I don't think you can go wrong with any CM9 based ROM, they differentiate only in details.

Couple questions on Supersonic ROMs and network stuff...

Now I have looked in the dev forum and I'm a pretty knowledgeable flasher and such. About 6 months ago I provisioned the phone for Cricket and flashed some "for cricket" ROM on the phone for a friend. Apparently now GPS loses lock in like 2 seconds and searches forever (maybe it's always been a problem). I'm going to see if I can just flash a new kernel and try some things, it's a 2.3.7 ROM, but I had a couple questions too.
1) Is there a really stable Sense 4 ROM out on the Evo? usually I don't go into forums and start asking about ROMs, I try them all and decide on one. In this case it is for a friend who doesn't know jack spit about ROMs or any of that, she needs a stable, working phone. I personally just like Sense 4 and would like her to have it if we can do stable, and I have zero time to try out every ROM in the dev forum. A recommendation would be awesome. If there is no stable Sense 4 ROM (bugless to anything noticeable) then I think I will go with CM9, I'd like to avoid JB for the time being till KLP comes out and JB is all sorted out for "normal people"
2) I think she is having MMS issues. If I flash a new ROM I know the provisioning won't change, but is there a quick fix for Cricket users and MMS to get it work, like something I can flash or an APK I can apply? You know how girls are with MMS, and I'd like to get it working right. Data works totally fine and I know GPS will be fine with a new ROM, but MMS is always tricky. Any help would be appreciated. I am primarily a GSM user so any time I reprovision a CDMA device and get into all this QPST and CDMA-workshop crap I get all disoriented and it's such a trial and error crap shoot, so far I've done pretty well with Sprint phones, but I know some of you guys know a lot of CDMA stuff and may know of a fast APK or flashable Zip to fix MMS on any ROM or something.
Thx
well first off, there is only one sense 4.0 rom, and its VERY VERY buggy, its not worth trying out in your case at the moment...i would suggest a stock rooted rom.. remember that all roms higher than 2.3.x are PORTS from other devices (source code and all) so not everything is going to work
