Does anyone if there is a version of this floating around that has the smudge going across the top fixed? Love the calendar, knda sick of looking at the smudge.

Hello, I've got a HTC Legend and am interested in rooting and flashing a new ROM.
I'm deciding between Modaco's custom ROM (with Sense) and Cyanogen.
I've had a look around but just wanted to see if some people know of some alternatives I haven't seen already. Cyanogen has some great features and it'd be awesome if I could find some good replacements.
I already use alternative launcher (Launcher Pro), music player (Power Amp), and widgets are no problem.
Main things I like from HTC Sense are the apps:
Dialer/Contacts - look really nice, smart dialer is great, contacts works well with linking contacts and synchronising with facebook etc. Pretty interface
Have tried DialerOne but I don't like how you can't change the colour of the buttons and doesn't deal with contacts as well as Sense
Also a bit off topic but I noticed that while DialerOne replaces the Dialer app, when I make a call through DialerOne it still uses the Sense "Phone" part to make the call. What does the Cyanogen 'Phone" part look like and what are some alternatives of this?
Clock app - with the different tabs down the bottom for Alarm, Stopwatch, world times, etc
Photos app - however I could replace with 3D Gallery on CM if it isn't too laggy.
Lockscreen - really smooth and cool effect how it slides down and has status indicators on it like battery low, flight mode, missed calls etc.
I have looked at WidgetLocker and it has some features which would be convient but it doesn't work perfectly, like it goes to Sense lockscreen for a second then to Widget Locker. Anyone know how to fix this issue? Is it not a problem on Cyanogen? And the Sense-style slide bar on Widget Locker is bad compared to real Sense one.
So yeah any advice/recommendations would be great.
The best advice would be to try out both and see which one suit you best
I use a variant of Cyanogen 6.1 and love it! A note on some of the things you mentioned:
Dialer one is complete rubbish! Lags waay to much, and looks quite ugly imo. I would suggest getting youlu address book. I was blown away by the speed off this app! and the interface is sweet... along with a handy widget! Highly recommendable.
The facebook integration has never been great on cyanogen ROMs. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Main problem is contact pictures syncing. I think that may be due to a problem with launcher pro, but in my opinion Launcher Pro Plus is the best launcher out! Hopefully the re-write of the code (due January) will fix this. In the meantime you can get an app called syncmypix as a workaround.
The 3D gallery is slow on my GSM Hero.. works great on faster devices! QuickPic is a great alternative for slower devices
I am looking for something like pure messenger or launcher pro's modified skins, that has a completely white text and interface, on a fully transparent background.
These are my screenshots, and you can see that the 1st one has a rss reader, I am looking for something similar to that. Pure messenger is good but it has that blue "t" in the right of every tweet, indicating that the message is twitter related, if you know what I mean. Also, I have found mods that add transparency to the official twitter widget, but the blue "t" is there as well, on the left of the "what's happening" text. On pure messenger I was also able to remove "contact names", which was also a great plus. Is there something on the market that would help me?
Ok so here's my 1st attempt, if I could get rid of those blue twitter icons in the right of the tweets I would be a happy man. Is there any setting for it? Or any skin that makes them white/black?
edit: its pure messenger widget
Each skin has a folder in the pmw folder on your SD card. Find the Twitter icon PNG in which ever skin you're using and replace it with a transparent png and you should be good to go, theoretically.
I cant find any folder related to pure messenger on my sdcard...

Pure messenger widget seems to be quite laggy on my nexus one. I wonder why. Anyone has lighter widget? I'm searching for the all-in-one update widget too..
I couldn't do anything with the pure messenger widget, those twitter icons cannot be removed. Are there any widget alternatives for what I'm looking for?
Hi! Know this thread is quite old and I am Wondering if you found the widget you where looking for? Looking for a similar myself...
Hi XDA-
I have been flashing back and forth between Darky and CM7 lately, and I've noticed something CM7 does that I'd love to port to Darky or elsewhere if possible.
The icons for google voice and Plume (not widgets, icons) show unread counts, which I have not seen anywhere else.
Anyone know how this is being done? So far as I can tell it isn't something ADW Launcher is offering (which comes installed with CM7).
Your insight is appreciated.
I have searched the web and the forums thin looking for a Calendar Widget with the same behavior as the stock Sense calendar. Im not talking about the Agenda one, im talking about the month view version of it.
I know about, and have tried Jorte, Pure Grid calendar and some other similar ones, but none of them has the behavior that i really like from the Sense one.
I want a calendar that ONLY shows one month at a time, and when i scroll up and down it should jump one whole month instead of scrolling smooth a week at a time...
APW Calendar sort of does it, but it does not support scrolling, it can only jump with buttons...
Can it really be that the Sense style Widget have not been ported to run on other launchers..?! Or that anyone haven't made something like what i'm looking for?
(I'm using ARHD 6.2.1 ICS with ADW Launcher EX, on a Sensation XE)

Widget by GoLauncher developers is really great - month scroll with nice UI. Anyway it works only in GoLauncher... maybe some1 would try to *something* it

Yeah I have tried that too, and i really liked it, but i prefer ADW Launcher to GO, so i was kind of hoping a calendar like that existed somewhere else
I use launcher pro and that had a similar widget ... really loved it.
Problem is that LPP widget does not work on ICS based roms. Once you try it to place the widget on the screen, it will crash and then LPP will continuously crash. There is no way to get LPP to work again without reinstalling the rom.
Am keen on getting a similar widget and sincerely hope that someone points me to one
They changed things for no reason. Why doesn't the wallpaper scroll anymore? And how come, for expanding notifications, you have to pinch instead of swiping down with two fingers? It's far less intuitive and doesn't work for me 80% of the time. Text message font size is bigger (even on small), and they took away all the good skins and widget themes.
I'm about to switch back to an ICS sense ROM or CM10.

I agree with you.
I just received OTA 4.1.1 from Fido(Rogers), but it's not Sense 4.1. I'm really disappointed.
The pinch to zoom to expand the notification is crap, however, iirc it was like this for all phones that had 4.1.1 and is improved by having to only swipe down in 4.1.2
Also, the text size in the stock sms app can be resized to be the same size as it was in sense V4.1, just pinch to zoom right out.
My main dislike with V4+ is:
- the notification thing you said, although as said I think this is due to the android version and when/if we get 4.1.2, it should be much better
- the power saver in the notification tray constantly
- the battery usage screens, completely ruined it especially the history screen
I don't really use any sense apps now, have replaced most with 3rd party apps from the market.
HTC is suicidal.

Clearly, because three people have matching opinions.
AW: Sense 4+ is really bad
I like it
