I've noticed screen shots where the bottom portion no longer contains the ( /\ Phone + ) at the bottom. Just wondering how I can do that. Yes I am a noob. Just recently rooted my phone and added the Azrael Rom.

Get a new launcher, like Launcher Pro or ADW.Launcher. It will replace the Sense launcher. I think that's what you're looking for.
Awesome

Will I need to do anything special with it like the Rom?

I recommend launcher pro. you can find it in the market I believe, and you would just install it from the market. To activate the launcher if it doesn't start on it's own after install, is go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications>click on the 'all'tab. Find htc sense. Clear defaults (not data). Press the Home button, it will ask you to use launcher pro or sense. check the box and select launcher pro.
If you're rooted, there are also ways to change this with the stock launcher as well. Look for "Rosie" mods in the themes/mods forum. Rosie is what HTC calls the sense launcher.
Nothing at all wrong with Launcher Pro or ADW either though. I used LPP for awhile and really liked it, but went back to Sense because myn has it themed so nicely (transparent app drawer looks great, and LP can't do that yet) and it runs so smooth.

I swtich back and forth between Myn's regular sense theme and his themed launcher pro at least 3 times a day, haha. I can't make up my mind. They both have things I like, too bad they can't be combined. Have the scrolling dock on sense, and rotation of the home screen, I'd be thrilled.

I had asked a similar question before but didn't get a clear answer, is there any way to add sense based widgets into adw launchers framework or any file at that to apply them wile running it? I figured it was possible because the .apks run but when I try to add a widget they aren't listed. Any help is much appreciated.

I've never been able to do this myself and I've tried a few times....I believe it probably can't be done because sense widgets are baked in as part of sense launcher. It'd be like trying to use launcher pro widgets in got sense UI. They're two separate entities each with their own goodies. I know you can get sense like widgets off the market. But anyways my belief is you can't do this but if you discover otherwise please let me know

Same boat kinda... The only thing I miss is the calendar that is in month view like in the basic stock.
Yeah I'm sure someone can make it happen though. If I find anything ill be sure to let you know.

Nope, they're tied to Rosie, I'm sure.
Use Launcherpro and Beautiful Widgets. Together, they create a very very close imitiation of Rosie. Beautiful Widgets has the people widget and Calendar widget that look exactly like Sense.
And if you like the clock, use Fancy Widget. A whole combination of these on a different ROM will make you think you're using Sense
Yeah I'm just gunna cut my losses and stick with a stock warm z rom. Any good dashboards recommended? I am a fan of the adw honey comb theme

LP? Yeah, I just usually do a search for Launcherpro in the Market and it comes up. But if LP makes you happy, let's flash a ROM to celebrate.
Hate to ask, but once again searching for on the xda app is not fun or good while I'm on the road. Is there a mod for rose in myn twopointtwo to make the bar at the bottom with five icons instead of three? I bought adw and love it, but I miss my sense widgets.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, there is no way to mod the Sense rosie to have 5 buttons. There are however rosie mods you can do, that remap the 3 buttons, so that the 3 buttons take up the entire width of the homescreen, instead of just a portion of it, as myn's rosie does. Launcher Pro Plus has some decent widgets, that are very similar to sense. Still not quite as polished or nice as the sense widgets, but they are decent, useable, and functional.

I have to give a +1 to LPP, I actually run Warm 2.2 with Launcher Pro.
OP, you don't mention specific Sense widgets, but LPP's Calendar and Friends (similar to FriendStream) as well as the Twitter and Facebook widgets are pretty good.
Well I bought both beautiful widgets and the other one (name is not coming to me right now) and they help, but I just like the feel of sense for some reason.

It'll cost you a few bucks but the best way to do it is launcher pro plus, launcher pro icons and launcher pro glass sense skin all found in the market. You can costomize your dock bar 100% and with the skins now available in the market your widgets will look exactly like sense.

Not Really, just makes it look different (unless I'm missing something).
Thanks for your suggestions everyone. I used to use Launcher Pro, but then I got kinda bored (probably because I didn't upgrade it). I'm going to run the free version until I can purchase the full version.
Have you tried Go Launcher EX? It's free and works great.
Running gingerbread-evo-deck [1.0][2.3.3 Stable][1.2w][2.3.4 Beta] with Tiamat kernel ... All I want to know is how do I get some of these themes with different home screen set ups and screen locks? Can I use any of them on this rom and how in the world do I do it? Sorry for stupid questions but I have searched and can't find anything specific to what I am asking. Thanks in advance fam.

you can also flash themes. those change lockscreens, and other non-apk things that theme chooser can't. not sure what ur talking about 'bottom of the screen'.
I just flashed cyanogenmod and at the bottom of the main screen I have a phone icon, menu icon and the internet icon. But I've seen others that have phone, Gmail, internet and a few others

That is all in the settings of the launcher you are using. I'm using launcher pro and have a different layout with the matted blues theme. Lock screen is widgetlocker. (Highly recommend) With battery status widget and minimal text widget.
I think you're talking about docks, widgetlocker themes, and whatnot. These aren't included in themes, people gather them from different places and put them together.
Depending on what home app you're using, you may be able to change the dock background. All home replacement apps (at least the major, reputable ones) allow for changing of dock icons. Head over to the Android Themes section and check out the stuff there. The "Post Your Homescreen" thread would be a good place to look and get ideas. I'm sure there's some noob guide to theming.
If you want your lockscreen to look like the screenshots you see, get Widgetlocker. It's around $2, but more than worth it. There's a thread of themes to change your sliders, check it out if you decide to buy the app. Also check out the FAQ thread for WidgetLocker to help you figure it out.
The three most popular home replacement apps are LauncherPro/LauncherPro Plus, ADW Launcher/ADW Ex, and Go Launcher Ex. My personal favorite is ADW Ex, a lot of people are die-hard LP+ users. I personally don't care for Go, it felt kind of clunky and tacky to me, but a lot of people like it because it has the features of paid launchers for free.
All of the home apps I mentioned allow for changing the dock background except for the free ADW (as far as I know). You can find dock backgrounds and icons here on xda in the themes section.
Have fun!

And here are the icons if you want to use them I did not make these. All credit goes to ManUp. He did a great job on them. Do not flash this zip, just open it up and the icons will be there.

Not at all, actually I was gonna ask you where you got the 960*800 MB wall. When I was on CM7, I would only run the nightlies that Matted Blues was compatible with... absolutely my favorite theme evar. The only version of that wallpaper I could find was too small, you mind attaching it for me?
I wear dresses and wax my eyebrows, but that doesn't make Matted Blues girly

Docks! thats what I was trying to say .. thanks ... i followed your advice/directions and I was able to change the dock with ADW Launcher Ex ... i went from being completely ignorant to no being a noob .. lol .. thanks for all your help guys .. i'm sure I'll have some more questions soon ... just gotta get the lock screen screen thing down now ... gonna go see what I can do
Sorry if this is already out there but I can't seem to find it or find out how to do this.
But is there a way to get gestures or even a gesture search/app shortcut on the actual desktop of android without clicking on any widget or shortcut. Or even a multitouch gesture app that when three fingers are on the screen it opens a program.
or am I just comply a wall here?
Any thoughts or ideas on this ?
I think it would be pretty sweet and easy access to programs this way
This is not the area to be posting this, but I don't see why it couldn't be.
ADWLauncher (at least in CyanogenMod) already has a couple basic gestures you can use. Swiping up and down can be modified to perform nearly any action (including opening an app). I have swiping up open the app list.
This belongs in q&a. Also u prolly get more answers there.
But like the other Guy said. Adw does gestures but i don't think that stock aosp or sense launchers do this.
