Not rooted ......yet I need A reliable pc for my backups; I had the s4 (flagship) it's a game changer for not having a flagship any sense 7 roms or more devs with the d816 because development is slacking but no offense to those who have put in work just would be nice to see more users with the d816

It could be because we are on KIT KAT 4.4.2. I have really wanted to change lock screen wallpaper and have separate wallpaper/lock screen wallpaper like I have with previous HTC phones but 4.4.2 doesn't have this feature for some odd reason and you would think that there would be a work around (hack or xposed) because the One series had both 4.4.2 and sense 6 at some point but I haven't found one for the sense 6 lockscreen. If anyone one knows please share.

plain android rom

I wood really like a rom which is just plain android (no htc sense ui). As I would like to use launcher pro beta as my home. Or even better a method of removing sense ui from stock rom.
Thanks
Dion
I would suggest you try one of the Froyo roms if you are wanting a rom without sense ui.

why would you want a nexus one :s its an ugly desire with less ram
In retrospect, i would probably have chosen the nexus too, just for the quicker release of OTA updates from Google. But with this in mind, and when the Desire officially receives the Froyo update, wouldn't updates be released quicker through HTC if they get rid of sense ui?...

I hate sense to. Its the stupiest of all home screen. But installing anything else means rooting which I dont like just now.
It is impossible to use any ROM except the stock ROM on a non-rooted desire.

Wow, why get a phone with Sense if you're going to complain?
Try out adw launcher or the stock Nexus One launcher us available for download as well. You do lose all things Sense if you use it though.

Check out nimbu.amorvi.com
I found the stock launcher here and installed it on my Desire and used it with no problems, you can also find the really cool gallery app from the Nexus One here which has some really cool features that I wish HTC hadn't taken out ie date/location grouping.

I don't hate sense. I do hate the sense homescreen which i have replaced by launcherpro. But the facebook integration and the interface changes do make an addition imo! It could be smoother though ,hope that changes in 2.2

[Q] which dialer its this and where to get it?

Hi
I'm currently on pays rom 1.3 and it uses this dialer
I quiet like it, but I would also like to upgrade to a newer rom and radio.
Can anyone confirm this dialer on a rom they tried?
If I can avoid sense that would be preferred as I use launcher pro and beautiful widgets
Thx

Looks like the standard Android launcher with a skin.
That was what I was afraid of.
Actually pretty cool skin, but guess I won't find it elsewhere then. Just have to cross my fingers and hope pays will update his rom soon
Thx for the answer

I saw that in nexus one screenshot thread. the developer showed this exact dialer and share the method for installing. I don't remember what page it was on tho.
the android dialer is uuuuugly

[Q] Sense 3.0 Lock Screen for an Unrooted Desire Z?

Hello everybody. I have an unrooted Desire Z with Gingerbread and Sense 2.1. Because of feeling noob, I am scared to root my Desire Z, but also I really want to use Sense 3.0 lock screen. Is there a way for me?
Thanks
Not without rooting I'm afraid. I'm currently using virtuous 2.0 which is based off the official DZ GB release. With the sense 3.0 lockscreen and it rocks.
If you need help rooting head over to #G2ROOT irc and they will be happy to help

Any way you could link to a thread/post on how to get that lockscreen on ROMs other than Unity? I remember seeing bits and pieces of how but I cant search because I'm on my phone at the moment.

Doesn't that suck up a ton of memory?
You must root your phone. I recommend Virtuous Unity or Virtuous 2.0, both with the overclocked Unity B4 kernel. Good luck!

I am using the sense 3.0 lockscreen with Virtuous 2.0 as well. Whilst I dont play lots of 3d games etc I dont have any problems with memory.
It really does run well.
Running Sense 2 OR 3 requires, in my opinion, removing unneccesary apps with Titanium to free up space. I took out WiFi calling, the drm, the email and stock apps/widgets, and Facebook/Twitter.

Thanks,
I have installed that app and it works nice. but sometimes I have to unlock both lockscreens original one and agile. Is there any other way to replace the original one.
I was thinking about something like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054444
Because I would also like to see that nice music widget on lockscreen and some other stuff.
I have downloaded and install app from that thread but when I restart phone I still have old lockscreen.

Download "No Lock" from the market. It disables the stock lockscreen so you can use agile lock or any other lockscreen
does anyone know if you can delete the stock htc 2.1 lockscreen using titanium back up??
thanks

[Q] No Sense UI on HTC Desire 816G Dual Sim

I just got HTC Desire 816G Dual Sim, but there is no Sense UI on it? Is it version based or? It's a new phone so it's NOT a custom ROM, I just wonder does it have Sense UI or not?
Also, is it possible to install CyanogenMod 12 on this device?

Noooope, that's stock(AOSP) KitKat UI with Blinkfeed launcher. Sense UI has White settings and it shows Sense UI version in About Phone. This phone has a mix of AOSP and Sense UI and I don't understand why, guess I'll have to check with HTC

Whoops your right. Probably since the 816g is less powerful they gave it a lighter, less prevent sense version. Very interesting...
