Hi All,
Is there a hack/patch for Sense 4 that would give me a 5x5 grid? Or, if that's a no go, is there any other launcher that will let me use the HTC widgets? I'd like to keep the combined mailbox widget for my Exchange accounts and have not yet found a replacement widget that actually works.
TIA

I'm waiting for Sense 5x5 grid mod too. I got bored with AdwEX, so will stick with Sense for a while.

I'd just like to keep my combined inbox widget! Haven't seen any 3rd party apps on the market. I understand it takes root on most devices to do mail widget so that's unlikely to become available. email widget is the only one and the guy has been promising a combined inbox for a long time now.

Hi there! I just flashed CM6 RC2 and its great! What isnt so great is, that I can no longer use my sense widgets! The clock looked awesome. The contacts app and the dialer were great too!
Is there an option to flash some parts from sense with an update.zip and if so, can I still use ADW launcher which comes with CM6 or isnt this possible?
Im sure CM is Stock Froyo and not sense, which means none of the Sense stuff is installed. You would need to use a Sense rom to use these.
OP try Fancy Widget for the clock. Although you may have to search online as HTC had it removed from the market for copying lol.
Also dialerone with the light theme is close-ish to the sense dialer.
yup, CM is stock Froyo.
The thing is that I want to use CM but with sense.
It would be even better to use CM with the ADW Launcher.
Can you please point me out to a thread where I can read how to cook such a rom?

Read the post above you.
Google Fancy widget and try that.
Try DiallerOne for the dialler.
If you use Launcher Pro then there are sense style Calendar, Bookmarks, Messaging and Contacts widgets with that.
The HTC widgets depend on HTC Sense. No HTC Sense = No HTC widgets.
No.
There is no replacement for HTC friendstream, news, message or mail widget and especially not for the album and direct Facebook sharing.

ty!
Fancy widget is okayish to replace the clock/weather widget.
I also installed and already purchased Launcher pro a feew minutes ago cus it is simply a great app!
The only thing I am missing now are the sense contacts and the sense clock app.
I know that I cant use the widgets with Launcher Pro but is the following thing possible:
-flashing a sense rom
-use Launcher Pro as launcher
-use sense contacts and sense clock? I am not talking about the widgets but about the apps?
Will try this out tomorrow but maybe you can save me the hassle if it isnt even possible

no, even if u have a sense rom, if you use launcher pro or any other launcher, then it disables sense and you cant use any of the sense stuff.

pure messenger widget does most of that
Would it be possible to add said hack to rosie? Touiteur, Pure Messenger and other scrollable widgets are out there, however they only work with LPP and ADW home. Rosie does not have a Gmail widget, sad as its the main mail service. Although I like both of the alternate homes. Rosie is by far the smoothest and fastest. I would love to keep the stock feel and have the ability to use these scrollable widgets.
Not without a lot of hard work.
And this post belongs in the q&a section, not in the android development section.
Sent from my IncredEVO via XDA App
I would also like to have this

For gmail, I just use the exchange plug widget. GMail can use exchange by using the m.google.com as it's domain.
Hi does any1 no if htc sence clock and weather widget work on SGS2? if so where can i find it?, if not anyone no of the best looking widget thats identical to it?

yeh i did notice that but didnt see any in there that look identicaly the same, would there be a apk for the proper htc sence widget that would work on our sgs2?
I personally use the SuperClock with SuperSense theme. Looks very good and "sensy" to me.

Superclock is a version of the beautiful widgets clock. supersense is a theme you can install from within beautiful widgets.
the weather widget of SGs2 is crap it takes ages to update and the shortest one for update is 3hrs damn

Using LauncherPro instead of TouchWiz. A lot more customisation.
carnt seem to find the sence in there, i just have a standard 1 installed in there and a tab for downloaded skins which just trys to loads skins but not doing anything i guess its supposed to me in there?
Yes the sense skin will be under the download tab.
Do a google search for "fancywidget.apk" This is the clock you are looking for. Its been pulled from most places im guessing for HTC copyright infringements but you can still find it if you look hard enough.
The app is called LP classic sense (you also get sense theme for your LP+ widgets) it's EXACTLY the same as fancywidget (wich was taken of the market way long ago)
I would have posted a screenshot but im not aloud yet
Yes but you need to install LauncherPro in order to get it and therefor get charged. You can still get fancywidget and use it with any launcher without having to pay for LauncherPro and the Sense add-on!!
I got lp sence and clock widget from market which the clock is good but i thought it come with sence wallpaper but no sign of it

Not true. Fancy Widget is still on the Market with the HTC weather clock style. The clock and weather skins are both called 'H7C'.
"Not true. Fancy Widget is still on the Market with the HTC weather clock style. The clock and weather skins are both called 'H7C'"
Thats now gone from the market also. I get the impression that LauncherPro now have exclusive rights to this clock and they are not letting anyone else have it!!

Hi guys,
I've brought a couple of days ago this fantastic HTC device! However, after 2 complete recharges, I've noticed that Blinkfeed launcher drains battery more then usuals launchers.
Considering that I don't use Blinkfeed homepage, i've decided to switch to a more customizable and light Nova Launcher... but to my disappointment I've noticed the lack of a great number of HTC widgets, like the weather widget, music app widget and all the quick settings shortcuts. Is it normal?? Is there a way to use them with Nova Launcher too??
Please help
No, you can only use the HTC widgets with the stock launcher.
You can browse the play store for copycat widgets, but that's about it.

You can get rid of blinkfeed page you know...
Pinch at the home screen to get to the panels option then drag the blinkfeed panel up and delete it.
Best of both worlds...

Oh thx for the answers guys.
However Nova launcher is also lighter, and much more customizable, so I will try to check in the play store to see what can I do.
Thank you again guys
Hello Everyone,
This is not something that I have created, but it is in fact something that I have checked myself and it does work successfully. I am running it now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/themes-apps/4x5-touchwiz-home-t2910243
The only complaint I have is now that I have 5x5 on TW home screen, the widgets that I have on a few pages are made for 4x4 and I cannot resize it, nor center it. Anyone know of any tricks to force a resize or set a permanent resize for each widget?
And yes, I do now that some widgets have the ability to be resized, but not all, so this is one of the ones that is not resizable lol
Ideally, I'd like to see a 4x5 option so that the widgets could be centered, but we still have 5 rows. Just my 2 cents.

He has both on the link
anyone seen or know of a deodexed 5x6 or 5x7 layout to flash ?
why not just use a custom launcher like Nova? It gives all these options plus lots more.

NOVA completely changes the stock weather widget if you use the S5 weather widget and it dont let u use the calendar widget like its supposed to. This is the main and only thing i dislike about Nova.

I agree what about making a 5x6 custom launcher for stock touch wiz that will fit the stick weather widget? Is that possible
