So i am a big fan of the Go Dev Team and i been looking around and i cant find anything on it. But is there a ROM that uses Go Launcher as a launcher or somthing like that? I dont know much about Root or ROMs

Typically roms offer either stock Sense 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 or stock AOSP froyo/gingerbread launchers. You have to install Go Launcher once you flash a rom if you prefer it. It's unlikely that a third party launcher is included in any rom on the Inc by default with the exception of ADW or even Launcherpro.

[Q] Standard "stock" launcher - Not ADW, etc; the one that comes with a Nexus. Where?
I've been around a bit and I've noticed that no roms appear to use the "stock" Android launcher. I don't even know what it's called! Even CM, which is generally very close to regular vanilla Android, comes with ADW instead of the normal launcher.
I understand that ADW and other launchers that are included in roms have more/better features, but I'd like to give the "normal" one a try sometime, if only out of curiosity.
Anyone know where can I find it?
Seriously, nobody? :-/
Just delete sense as standard, press the home button and choose the stock launcher...

Download leedroid2.2d from the development page,he includes it in there, its called launcher so just extract it from the rar. It should be in system/app

So I saw a video on YouTube on how to disable HTC Sense and use the default stock launcher, however that device was running 2.1 and so it won't work on my device...
I was just wondering is there anyway to disable sense without installing a separate ROM on 2.2, thanks.

I think the only way is with a new rom
You can't turn in off, as you can't install Sense on a non-sense rom.
However, you can install a different launcher, i think the gingerbread stock launher is on the market.
Because HTC Sense is built onto the Android interface, shouldn't closing HTC Sense enable the stock launcher? All HTC did was take the 2.1 nexus Rom and write Sense into it, they never removed a thing so surely there is a way?

Ahh thanks, they should give people a choice between Sense and the Stock Launcher. Fair do's people should just get the Nexus if that's what they are looking for, but the Nexus in the UK was only available on one network, and I for one completely prefer the standard Launcher, HTC Sense 1.0 (Desire Version) is very buggy and laggy.
It surprise me that you know how HTC made Sense and at the same time you don't even know what it is.
Like mentioned by Surfy89, Sense is way more then the htc launcer (rosie). If you want to get rid of Sense you need to flash a alternative rom (AOSP).
If you are talking about using a different launcher then the sense launcher (rosie), you can just install a alternative launcher from the market. So you do have the choice to use whatever launcher you want. Al tough the sense widgets won't work with a alternative launcher.

This is the video I saw: YouTube
I got the wrong info, sorry for wasting time
Even the comments under the video are saying it's an old feature.
Either install different launcher from the market (Launcher Pro, Zeam, Go Launcher ... plenty of them) or root and flash a custom AOSP rom. That's the way to go.

Watched the video on my mobile, and didn't see the comments for this reason, would just like to say thankyou for everyone that has corrected my wrongs I now have Oxygen 2.0.
Looking for a ROM that is made from the ADW launcher, as in instead of HTC sense UI it would just be ADW launcher but with out the hassle of running 2 UI's. Hope this isnt a double posted question, sorry in advance if it is.
Look for anything aosp or senseless.

Or just use a desensitize script on your favorite sense rom.
Is there any way to install miui launcher to a sense rom..that would be the ultimate..miui home launcher is the most stable n fastest that I have seen..zeam launcher is pretty close to it..adw,launcherpro or golauncherEx has the most customizing settings..what launcher do u guys mostly use

You could prob try taking it from the rom, the zip file unless it doesnt want to install. Personally, I use ADWLauncherEx.

I'm getting really tired of HTC Sense, and I don't really want to mess around with launchers at the moment. I'm wanting to basically disable Sense and revert it to the basic android look. Anyone know if this is possible on and unrooted Evo 4G running 2.3.3? And if not, is there a really good launcher that will imitate that look?
well to start, if you "turn off" sense you will need a launcher. Launcher 2 would look the most like what i think you are looking for. just remove all widgets from homescreens on sense and select that launcher as the default.
or
you could flash one of these

they have most of sense removed.
or
try an aosp rom
I second Launcher2. I was never a fan of the bloatware we know as sense.

I tried looking up Launcher 2 in the market, but i couldnt find it.
Yea me too. Try Gingerbread Launcher free or Android 2.3 Launcher (Home).
Alternatives are ADW, Go Launcher and Launcher Pro. There are also themes for the launchers to customize them further.
The following are themes to make the launchers look more like stock gingerbread
ADW - here or here
Go Launcher - only found 1 theme but had bad reviews
Launcher Pro - here
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I'd recommend Launcher Pro, there are tons of free themes for it and you can customize almost everything. Both Launcher Pro and ADW are both good, I would try both (they are free in the market) and see which one you like better. I used sense exclusively until I found Launcher Pro, I preferred it over ADW. If you want to completely get rid of sense, then the only option is to root and check out the senseless ROMs that are posted in the development section, or the AOSP ROMs.
Edit: I didn't fully read the post lol
