Anyone know if it's possible (or likely) that someone could make a mod with SenseUI for the G tab? That would be pretty sweet.
You could always try launcher pro plus. Its not exactly the same but does have some similar widgets and functionality.

Does Anyone have the Download to it or anything?!?!
I Really want it, and if anyone can find it please leave me a link
I haven't heard anything about a WebOS port to an Android platform. Even if someone tried, with the vastly different hardware I doubt it'd be stable or work fully. Your best bet is a Sense UI Hero build, it has some of the WebOS flashiness and will generally work on any Android phone.
LOL...sorry mate just gonna interject here before you get flamed: its not gonna happen. Well it could possibly, but the pre has specific hardware (eg gesture area) that our phones dont have. Both android and webos are based on linux, but they are fundamentally different. Perhaps if someone got hold of a SE rachael dump, we might be able to have a similar launcher bar and imitate the pre, but a 'rom' for it just aint looking likely. Would love to be corrected but its the truth.

There was a theme port for Palm Pre rom, but the link got taken down because Palm made threats against legal action. That's the one that I have but it's based off of Cyanogen's 3.8.6 Rom. It's not that great. It only kinda made it seem like it looked like the WebOs,but you could tell the differences. Plus, if you were anywhere but the homescreen, it looked just like Android.
So what's a better buy, since I am confused and conflicted as to what to get.
Motorola Milestone or Nexus One/Desire?
I actually have no clue, its confusing to think which one and every time I think I decide I go back to the middle.
And I know that for the Nexus One, this website has one strong modding front behind it, but I have no idea where, if any, modding movement exists for the Droid, since I haven't found anything on this forum.
What are your thoughts on it?

I personally have the N1 and also have T-mobiles "droids" aka cliqs... Htc is far better when it comes to hardware. I suggest the N1!
In my experience - if I want to get google/android updates ASAP I would only go with whatever google choses to sleep with (stock i.e. without any skin)
For GSM that would be the Nexus One.

Aha no Droid love? Is there a site dedicated to Droid mods like this has a section for Nexus development as well?

nope, moto is lacking in the game... plus nexus isnt a branded phone... its a HTC/GOOGLE not a T-mobile/AT&T/Sprint/V-word phone that should be enough to go by in your choice...
I'm also kind of in a boat like this one. I have a G1 and desperately want to upgrade. I'm considering the EVO since Austin has a 4G tower here. The prices and plans are attractive too. The one thing holding me back however is the hotspot feature in froyo. Sprint will almost certainly cut this feature out of the froyo update for the EVO since they want to charge 30 bucks a month to use that. I'm wondering if there will be a version of froyo from cyanogen (or the many other developers out there) for the evo to circumvent this (not to mention to get rid of the Sense UI).
This isn't any easier a decision to make now aha.
I vote for Motorola milestone
considering its hardware keyboard
I have a Milestone and the hardware keyboard is useful, but I don't like the way Motorola have locked down the bootloader.
That means that even when rooted, we are limited in what can be hacked about!
I will be getting rid of the Milestone and getting a Desire soon if that tells you anything.

I see what you mean, well I've put in a few offers to some used N1s, my local shop stopped carrying them!!!
If you do not have any need for a hardware keyboard N1 will be better beause of the faster CPU.
If you like hardware keyboards like me you will forget about N1.
There are quite a few forums with support for the Droid/ Milestone.
Depends on the kind of work you want to do. If all you want is a shiny super modded device with great screen contrast (excluding touchscreen response) and speed and early updates, get Nexus One.
If you need to do a lot of typing and/or need better screen response, get Milestone.
While milestone doesn't have a dedicated community behind it, doing lots of rom porting, most of the useful N1 mods work on it. Also, it is a very solid and well built phone. The build quality compared to nexus one is equally good, if not better. You can also get it overclocked to about 1.2GHz which makes it run superfast, if you are worried about speed.
Hey all. I was poking around in some of the other forums and came across this.

This launcher looks pretty cool to be honest. Not sure if others would be interested in it or not. It seems to have a few bugs and might even require 2.1 OS but im about to give it a try on my X10.
The features are cool, most especially being able to organize the app drawer. I previously owned an LG EVE and although the phone itself sucked with Android 1.5 the LG native features were pretty decent. Ill let everyone know if it works on our phones or not. One other X10 owner seemed unable to install it so its up in the air.
*edit*
So the Home selector apk will install but its useless as the Home apk itself will not. My guess is that its for Eclair and above as the Optimus Z runs on Eclair. Seeing as the 2.1 update is due this month im assuming no one is interested in trying to get it to work on 1.6. Maybe its not even possible...I dunno.
Yup, i tried it to. Was a no go. Guess we have to wait till we have atleast 2.1 . When is that happening by the way? Hear spain anounced it for end of September.
thankkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

This launcher is very good, can anyone work or try to explain me how to open and resize all the widgets and launcher? for sensation and atrix (all phones with qHD)
hey other thing, can anyone give me the original Livewallpaper and wallpapers from sensation?
sorry if I'm on wrong section
Maybe it would be easier asking the guys who made the launcher. Just a thought.
lol, or buy a galaxy S
I didn't think that touchwiz can be ported... can it?! (I don't actually care - I'm very happy with Sense, just leaving an opening for a statement which I'm not 100% sure of)

TouchWiz is quite horrible to be honest... Sense is way better and one of the main reasons I went for the Sensation instead of the Galaxy S2!
eheh....I don't like the SGS2 too, thats only for try, I love sense too, but can't be ported to atrix
I love specs off atrix with gingerbread, launcherpro plus webtop media center....explosive xD

I'm pretty optimistic that they'll get it right this time, considering 3.0 is few months old and they're already rushing 3.5
For me it looks like a "bad" skin
Well I kinda like it... It looks simpler, more minimalistic, and more elegant.
I'm quite surprised that HTC might change its iconic clock Widget, though. And I don't get exactly what the icons on the left might be : is this some kind of a side dock, or merely themed shortcuts?
------------------------------------
Will be ported > hopefully.
edit : no famous weather clock in 3.5?
im going to make a guess and say that Sense 3.5 is much lighter than 3.0 since it was htc who told us that because of old hardware 3.0 couldnt be ran on older devices, yet the Bliss is 800MHz ..
when i bought my sensation, i watch at plenty youtube-vids to get others thoughts about the phone. i was going to get the phone anyway, but still.
what the most of them says, ist that sense is consuming a bit too much, and only got like 100mb free ram. and after installing their apps, they said it starts getting slow.
think 3.5 is a "fix" to that, so it can compete with the speed of SGS2. (quadrant and other ****)
looks simpler, but still nice - so good job HTC if a 800Mhz can process it, then just imagine what a dualcore 1.2 Ghz can do
Strange, I'm sat here with a stock phone and about 330MB free RAM. Sense isn't using much at all.
Certainly not slow either.
Looks a bit weird...
If the 2nd picture is a screenshot of an alternate lock screen, I think that looks pretty nice. Could be a nice option to have.
Not sure I like the font, seems awfully hard to read
I kinda like it, but it is a little hard to read.

well it's in Taiwanese so yeah
As long as it looks very similar to 3.0 and is faster, I'll like it. For all I care they could keep the exact same looks and get rid of the pathetic lag inherent to Sense.
it looks fake to me...I may be wrong mind. I still won't use it, even more so if it does indeed look like that lol
It doesn't seem like much, and the notification bar still looks butt ugly. Are all the new HTC devices gonna have Sense? If so, that sucks.

I don't understand why anyone would purchase a 5-600 phone with sense and then spend the rest of time
reducing it to a bland interface, it's a dual core soa device, that flies...buy a nexus1 or hd2 or mytouch 3g if you want purity and stock......sheeesh
Isn't Sense 3.5 for lower end devices?
The new dock seems nice. Really all I need on the dock is application access and phone. I never liked the customization options on the dock...but that's just me. I bet they have an option for the old style though.

Hahah pretty sure people buy these $5-600 phones so they can do whatever they want with them, including but not limited to flashing/talking about/porting of Sense 3.5
Oh and BTW i dont see anyone talking about stock or aosp here?
