The gingerbread lockscreen was disabled last minute by HTC I believe. Is there a way to get it back? I.e. tv turning off animation when locking.
On second note, can the homescreen be used in landscape?

I sure once we get some custom roms and what not we'll get that animation.
As for the home screen, the sense launcher does not have a landscape mode that I've seen.

Sense can't be used in landscape. I'm hoping somebody makes a mod like they did with Touchwiz, so we can change the functions and stuff, as well as having it landscape

Oh really? In the Sense ROMS i had been using on my HD2, i was able to go into landscape mode. But that doesn't bother me. I just wish the would have kept the awesome lockscreen animation
Hello All,
I somehow have an animated lockscreen at the moment.
Not sure how I did it, in fact trying to recreate it.
The live wallpaper is being displayed on the lockscreen. Can someone else reproduce any such thing on their Sensation?
T.I.A.

If you're using a custom ROM such as Android Revolution HD there are files you can flash to enable it in that particular ROM's Thread.
Thanks sromer for the reply.
Having an animated lockscreen background is very cool right, much more interesting than an static image for now.

Hi
My sensation started displaying some lines on the HTC sence screens. Think of lines of noise, something like that. You might think that the screen is broken.
When I change screens then no problem, when i get back to the same screen the lines are there, if I restart the sence or change scene then this fixes the problen. It appears again after some hours.
Do you have ant ideas?

It is a known problem it is caused by widgets that aren't directly sense widgets. Such as the Google search bar. Or handset sms widget. It happens because most Apps aren't optimized for qHD screens. I mean think about it I can only think of 3 phones that have the qHD screen in US Evo 3D, Sensation, and the Atrix 4G. So it's a problem as simple as that idk any fixes.

I don't have this problem :S
Same here
Relieved to see that I'm not the only one, and that it seems to be normal
Get this with the facebook widget too
Get like blue lines running horizontally thru widget.
Have to remove and re-add widget to clear it--
screen lines
I have this problem with my widgets also. I reset the phone and most of the time it clears up but not always.
Bug with a live wallpaper perhaps?

not here - running static wallpaper and get the lines
I think it has to do with the non htc widgets. I get them on my cnn widget and not any of the HTC weather/stock/tip calculator widget. I just download fast reboot from the market to "refresh"/restart the running apps. That seems to fix the "rainbow line" in the widgets.
Changing scenes or skins does that to the widgets, even HTC ones (power control), all you have to do if that happens after changing the skin is to remove the widget and put it back again, it won't happen again as long as you didn't change the skin, also it won't necessarily happen every time you change the skin, it seems to be a random thing, anyway don't worry, your screen is fine, it's all software, this is just a bug that should be easily fixed in coming updates (note that I'm not talking about widgets that don't support qHD, that's another issue).

I concur that this is an effective way of dealing with this most annoying problem.

Same problem here with non-HTC widgets. Will try that fast reboot!
Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to disable the 3D Cube Rotation in HTC Sense. Whenever I unlock my phone, I have to wait a couple of seconds to see the desktops rotate... very beutiful, but useless...
Nope.

What ROM are you using? It might be a kernel issue
Revolution HD at the moment, but I wouldnt mind using other rom if it fixes it (I need sense though)... lets wait, I cant be the only one bothered by this feature...
Thanks for your replies
I think you're the only one GETTING the feature...if it was an issue a lot more people would have mentioned it. Although saying that, I had your issue when using the Smartass governor
Sorry EddyOS, I did not explain myself correctly.
I dislike the HTC Sense 3.0 feature that makes the desktops rotate in a 3D cube when unlocking the phone before finally displaying the home screen.
It is not a bug or problem, I just dont like it and would like to disable it if possible.
Ah, the animation itself? No, that can't be turned off. You'd need to use a different launcher
oh I see... Thank you!

I also hate this one. :-(
Bulletproof rom from romanbb has the option to disable this annoying animation. Just dont understand why it is not included as option in other roms..really dont know what it is good for..

JuiceDefender Ultimate has the ability to do this as it replaces the lock screen with a simple push button to unlock. No animation. Better battery life as well.
hello, Im currently using virtous unity rom, and the live wallpaper scrolling doesn't seem to work.
Anyone else having this problem? And how do I fix it?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
i don't think i've seen that option on sense roms. a lot of the launchers in aosp roms have it though. i remember that the streak live wallpaper moved around when you scrolled through the screens.
If your talking about what I think you are, the feature was disabled on the sense 3.0 due to the carousel animation/ layout.
No big loss anyway.

Unfortunately for you, there is no way to re-enable it.

On pretty much all android phones, the wallpaper scrolls as you navigate left and right through your screens. On the sensation however, sense 3 fixes it since you can scroll all the way round. This is annoying. Before I rooted and flashed my phone, SPB shell allowed scrolling wallpapers again, even though that too can go all the way round your screens. Since flashing though, it's fixed, even with the non standard launcher. Is there any way I can mod this without changing roms?
The only way to re-enable it is to use a different launcher.
eg Launcher Pro
Most launchers have an option to turn wallpaper scrolling on and off. Unfortunately Sense 3.0/3.5 doesn't
I know sense 3 and 3.5 doesn't, but my spb shell launcher used to scroll until I flashed a different rom.

Does anyone know why it won't scroll any more on my different launcher? It did before I flashed any roms, but I don't see why a rom change would stop a completely different launcher from behaving the same as before?

Try wallpaper wizardrii but not with sense launcher
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The qHD screen is capable of 1080x960 scrollable wallpapers but HTC ruined everything with its carousel thingy (pseudo-3D transitions).
Sense 3.5 would have been the best rom ever if it didn't have this limitation
Perhaps the next Sense with ICS will have back scrollable wallpapers...

Thanks, I'll give it a go, not using the sense launcher anyway.

Tried it, it's an editor. It won't automatically allow my launcher to scroll wallpapers again, and it'll only work on static wallpapers anyway, live wallpapers should also scroll normally.

Hi
I was wondering if there was a possibility to make a faster lockscreen.
I know that there is a limitation of the Android System of some sort, but does work with the HTC Lockscreen.
My Problem is that the Lockscreen is not always the First thing that shows up, which kind of sucks..
Would be happy to hear an answer or maybe a solution?
A faster lockscreen? How do you mean a faster one? Does it hangs, or you want to get faster "into your phone" from lockscreen?

widget locker! its like $2 or $3 but its customizable!
in the beginning, my phone first unlocked and after that it loaded the lockscreen.
this problem resolved itself.
now its just not that fast at getting to the homescreen. but u guess its because of the app.
by the way I'm using lockview lockscreen.
love it so far

Ok, but how to have only the sequence lock screen without the fancy sense one?

you will have to remove the sense lockscreen completely, I did this using the "remove htc lockscreen" zip file, attached to the arhd thread
