I tried robocik's RCTouch Rom which was nice but I went back to RCMixHD cos of all the HD sense stuff (locations etc..and I prefer the font size on the HD Roms).
I really liked the Dock panel on the Touch Rom though (the desk dock) and tried to put that in the HD Rom but it didn't work - FC.
Anyone tried this or have any ideas what I would need to do?
The dock panel app incorporates the car panel as well but I'm not too bothered about that as I use the Google one..

I would love it if somebody was able to come up with a modified version of the HTC lock screen which provides the same music control functionality already present, plus the same or similar capabilities while streaming Pandora radio (artwork display would be great if possible).
I've quite enjoyed this feature upon installing the latest Uncommon Sense ROM (though still no artwork), but I am not a fan of the stock style lock screen. I've also seen the rotary lock screen with music controls for sense, but a) I'm not sure if that controls Pandora or not, and b) I'm not really a fan of that style either. I prefer my current Incredible rEVOlution theme applied over the HTC lock screen and it would be awesome if I could control Pandora with that as well!
Try Widgetlocker with the Htc sense option, and put the pandora widget on the lockscreen, done!
I tried widget locker before and ended up getting a refund for it. I can't remember why, but I imagine it was probably because either A) my revolution theme didn't carry over since it's not technically an HTC lock screen or B) I didn't like having an app always running just for an alternate lock screen, or maybe it was both.
Whatever the reason, I'm afraid to buy it again because I have the feeling I still won't be satisfied with it. I would love this capability in a nice light, integrated package as opposed to the clunky widget locker workaround method.

I am looking for a way to use the rotate option for ALL screens on my EVO.. the rotate option only works in certain apps and i would like to be able to rotate my Home Screen along with My Phone Dialer, is there anyway to do this?
I am running a Rooted Stock Rom on my HTC EVO with a netarchy custom kernal ... what are my options to achieve this effect?
PS: Just to be more clear, by rotate i mean: When you turn the phone horizontally, i would like the picture on the screen to also turn horizontally rather than like the home screen stays vertical even when i turn the phone horizontal
stock rom won't do landscape homescreen. You'll need to flash to a custom rom to unlock that. even still, I've never seen a landscape dialer.
Or run a custom launcher, I know ADW has a landscape options. But some of the widgets/icons are not optimized for it and look funny
there's absolutely no way to flash a mod that will allow the stock rom to do this? Are there sense roms out there that allow for landscape home screens or only AOSP roms that allow for the landsape of the home screen, and if there are sense roms that allow landscape homscreen why couldn't it be done on the stock rom ?
It's not necessarily the "ROM". It's the launcher (home screen). If you're rooted, you can use these on the stock ROM, or any other Sense/AOSP based ROMs.
LauncherPro, ADW, ADW.EX and GO Launcher are some of the popular ones that allow landscape home screens.

The HTC Sense home launcher does not support landscape rotation and there is no modification available to do so.

I run Warm Z 2.2 its sense 2.0 based and offers full landscape support.
my dad has the HTC EVO Shift, and his phone is able to do the home screen landscape, and that is also running sense 2.0 -- so technically... it is possible
does Warm Z offer landscape for the dialer?
I'm looking to be able to stand my EVO up with the kickstand on my desk at work and be able to dial on the phone with it horizontal sittin up on the kickstand

Your 100% right on the fact that your dads Shift is running Sence 2.0 and yes the launcher dose landscape. The problem is that your eVo, even though its rooted its running a "stock" rom and it still has only Sence 1.0. So it's not possible on your rom.
I would think that there's alot of coding that would have to be done to make it happen. And with all of the custom roms being ported to the eVo from devices that already have Sence 2.0(and Froyo) there's not that much of a demand to port just the Sence 2.0.
Heck, it may just not even be possible at all!?!?
Your best bet may be to find a rom that has been ported and is running stock Sence 2.0. There are a few of them out there... just have to look.

Phone and contacts that will rotate to landscape are out for cyanogenmod since nightly #78, you just have to enable it in the Call settings and Contact settings.
Is it possible to mod Home screen like touhwiz and toggle shortcuts in notification bat other than go launcher?
For now, the closest you can probably get is TW Launcher (available from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883) and one of the apps available from the market that adds toggles to the notification pulldown (search: "notification toggle").
EDIT: Actually, you'll need to use one of the older versions of TW Launcher that has been tweaked for our QHD screens. You can find them here: http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/motorola-atrix-themes/3242-touchwiz-4-5-launcher-touch-sii.html

I have used that tw launcher on my infuse and it was unstable for me. I don't know how it acts on the A2 but on the infuse it constantly rebooted my phone.

I used it on my old Optimus 2x with both the stock ROM and CM7 and apart from an occasional FC while tweaking the settings, I found it to be very reliable.
I guess mileage varies depending on your hardware.
Personally, I think Motorola's launcher is one of the best one's I've ever come across, and I'm pretty sure I've tried them all (including some rather obscure ones), so I'm sticking with it for now.
So yeah, I installed the Fallout v3 ICS rom and I can't change lockscren wallpaper, the option just isn't there in the settings. Anyone else able to set a custom wallpaper for their lockscreens? If so, what ROM are you using?
I changed my wallpaper to a custom image (a photo I had taken on my phone) and it replaced the lock screen as well.
System Settings > Personalize > Wallpaper > Gallery
Not sure if its supposed to do that but it did, only been running Fallout v3.0 for 1 day so still learning but so far its a great rom, very stable.
On fallout there is no possibility to have two different wallpapers on home screen and lock screen.
The lock screen icons and wallpaper will always depend on your home screen and the dock icons
Yeah, that's Sense 4.0A for you! No Lock screen wallpapers, No customizable shortcut icons...

Decided to go back to a sense 3.6 rom.
Went AOKP for a bit....the lack of sms preview on the lockscreen annoyed me. Spent an entire day flashing, and set up different roms! Ah well, I'll just stick with this until HTC do an official release
For anyone that cares, the new v4 of the fallout rom solved all these issues
Does anybody know if it's possible to get the transparent Statusbar when using Nova launcher? I'm running ViperXL 2.0 and tried changing the settings in Venom Tweaks but it seems that it only wants to work for Rosie.
Did you see the transparency option for all other apps? Pretty sure that's what you're looking for.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I like the way that Sense handles the transparency (i.e. transparent on the home screen, black while not). I don't know if there's anyway to do this without using Rosie though.
I can't find a way to make that work either. The closest I could come was to open rosie after a reboot. Then the changes carry over to Nova. But ultimately I started to see some times where it became transparent on apps. It wasn't all the time, but often enough to just stick with the always 3D "rounded" black version.
