I Hope I am putting this in the right place, if not I am sorry!!! I was wondering if there is a way to add the 3d app drawer that is on Launcher pro onto htc sense ui? If anyone knows of a way please let me know I will be greatful!!!!!!! [email protected]
No it's not
Just use LauncherPro.
I like the some of the htc widgets that sense ui has
there must be a way to port that 3d app drawer over
As far as I know the app drawer isn't an app, and it's part of the default home app. The reason LauncherPro has the 3D one is because they wrote that all themselves - they control EVERYTHING.
LauncherPro Plus has started creating widgets that are almost identical to the HTC widgets. As of now, only the People widget is released, but more are on the way.

I agree 100% and if anybody finds a how too I'd be interested in it too.
Could a theme change the app drawer?

No. It isn't possible. Move on to a superior launcher and get replacement widgets.

I have tried everything i can think of before and I could never get it to work is is a part of the home screen I would even settle for adw with 3d like I have with froyo on my droid
The people widget for launcher pro is it something that needs to be downloaded from the market or is it in launcher pro already. I didn't see under widget in launcher pro so I wonder if it needs to be downloaded from the market.
It's in Launcher Pro Plus, it's a paid app.

Yes, I'm sure he knows that. That's why he wants to port a LauncherPro feature to Sense instead of switching to LauncherPro.

I did switch to a superior launcher... when I set HTC sense as my default. I've tried the others and bottom line I don't like how they look and I'm not going to go hunt down and pay for apps and widgets that are half as good as my HTC ones.
On here I've tried different themes, roms and all kinds of stuff, and I would really doubt that just changing the app drawer is impossible
Launcher pro (free and paid) allow you to have a 3d app drawer.

I was in the OPs shoes until the other day, you REALLY should give LauncherPro another shot because there are widgets out there better than HTC Sense's. LauncherPro Plus includes a people widget, Fancy Widget = HTC Sense's clock, pure calendar grid= freaking awesome calendar, Pure messenger = way better than friendstream... seriously you should check them out.
I will do that thanks for tip!
I had a 3d one similar to what the Nexus has on my phone.

I was told about LauncherPro and loving but the HTC widgets are not in the list while I am using LauncherPro, is there a way I can get the widgets on there?
Thanks,
Josh
Unfortunately the HTC widgets only work with the Sense UI interface and home screen. Once you use a 3rd party home program you lose the ability to add HTC Widgets. I use Helix 2 and find that the usefulness of the program outweighs the need to use HTC specific widgets.
Damn, well thanks Angry.
Does anyone know of any good alternatives to the HTC clock and mail widgets, if there are any good ones, than I will definitely stick with LauncherPro.

Looks just like the HTC version. Does it do the same thing with the weather special effects?

I use ADW Launcher, Beautiful Widgets, Agenda Widget, Pure Grid Calendar, Pure Messenger, Pure Music and Visual Bookmarks to replace most of the Sense widgets.

I just modified the Power Widget that's part of this MOD as per the instructions in the thread and it works perfectly and looks better than the Switch Pro widget.
I really like the features that the sense weather and clock widget, and it isn't offered with that of the awd. Is there any way to have the same features that the sense weather and clock widget have on this type of launcher. Ohh and I got the fancy weather widget, but its just not the same as the regular. HALP!
You can't have both. You have to choose.

You can only find replacements...once again sense widgets only work with the sense home.

Who cares if it is exactly the same? They have more skins and options than the Sense clock could ever hope for. I'm sure you could find something that you like just as much or more.

Weather & Toggle Widgets are my favorites (mainly because the Beautiful Widgets brightness widget doesn't work with Sense phones).

I use weather and toggle with the sense clock and weather icon clones (h7c-clock.zip and h7c.zip) which you can download through the apps settings. I also have the forecast add-on for weather toggle which is nice.
I agree
I hear you, I miss the Picture Gallery and bookmark widgets, I really want to quickly view my pictures and recorded videos like on the Touch Pro 2.
I have found a nice calendar replacement, and music replacement. It's a trade off, My co-worker also has an EVO, so I like mine to look totally sleek and different, i'm happy with ADW launcher.

The "Pure" calendar widgets are pretty popular choices.
ditto. also the agenda view for the calendar widget is awesome
the contacts widget on the Incredible is very good. Is there any way to get them on the X? This is my 1st android phone, so I'm a bit of a noob.
No, the widget of which you speak is a HTC Sense widget and will ONLY work on a device running a custom HTC Sense version of android.
HOWEVER!
There are plenty of widgets already on the Android Market that are pretty much exactly the same.
"People / Contacts Widget" Seems to look exactly the the same to me, the only thing it doesnt do is scroll like the HTC version. If you are looking for that try..........
"Scrollable ContactsWidget BETA" which offers a scrolling option when used with Launcher Pro or ADW Launcher!
Good luck, and enjoy your new Android phone!
Anyone know of a good calendar widget that works in agenda view and has transparecy settings ? The stock one is garbage.

The new Launcher Pro Plus ($2.99) is attempting to replicate all of the sense widgets, with the contacts one being done already. Check out if that's what you're looking for. I'm new and can't post links but google launcher pro plus and it'll pop right up.
Where can I find the widgets that Pro launcher uses for it's messaging and facebook that is used on it's theme. I would like to use them on ADWLauncher EX. Or is there anything similar. Thanks in advance

without knowing what these widgets are exactly, i would imagine that they are part of that particular launcher. Launcher Pro has its own version of the messaging widget, and the official facebook app has its own widget also. i dont think it is possible, or at least very easy to migrate launcher specific widgets to other launchers. hope that helps.

They are Launcher Pro X widgets. I like the layout of them and wondered if there were any similar, apart from the official FB app or Handcent app (pop up) which I am currently using. I would use Pro launcher but I prefer the ADW launcher EX ui.

Try Pure Messenger Widget from the market (paid), but similar to the LPP widget

I've been using Colorize Widgets for a month now and I have to report that they look and work great!
You are right, an all in one widget would be cool, but as far as the widget size is concerned, most launchers nowadays let you resize,
so that would not be an issue.

Hey guys, i really love the AOSP ROMs, but i miss the sense widgets a lot. Anyone know any good replacements for them, especially the following widgets?
=>People Widget
=>Friend Stream
=>The Giant Weather Clock (there's a ton, i need to know which you think is the best)
=>Messages
PS - I do not want to install a launcher like ADW, GoLauncher or LauncherPRO, so keep those suggestions out. Thanks.
in my opinion the best replacement for the weather clock widget ist fancy widget
ty it out
Thanks, will try it. I really need a widget to replace the PEOPLE widget, i really miss that...

Android pro widgets does the trick for me when I go non-sense. Although the "people" equivalent is not linked to facebook, sms and etc.

Yeah, i am using that now. The widgets are not nearly as polished as those in sense,but they'll do.
I like the go launcher widgets most, they are near by to the sense ones, but unfortunately not useable without go launcher(except go weather widget, a nice replacement for the sense clock/wheater widget).
i prefer the go weather app for weather. it works without the need for go launcher. as for people... im still searching... btw, chk out agile lock if u want the lockscreen. it works well, no lag and like in sense, you can put custom lockscreen apps...
I use gosms pro for messages, really good imo
I use Photo Contacts Widget

The HD Widgets (recently in that 10p sale) is very nice. I've used it in post #282 of the screen shots thread. Not as many skins as Beautiful Widgets, but still a nice looking clock.
Another clock I like which doesn't get much of a mention is WP Clock. It's more of a Live Wallpaper than a clock, but it lefts you have a nice, clutter free main homescreen.
