Hi guys . Is it possible to use HTC Sense widgets with Launcher Pro ? I have not been able to figure it out. Or do you have to stay on Sense .

You have to stay on Sense to use the Sense widgets. They require the Sense launcher framework to function. If you still want to use Launcher Pro, the Plus version includes widgets that are very similar to HTC's.

Launcher Pro Plus ($3 USD) is great and has some HTC style widgets without requiring the HTC framework (required by Sense UI). Search for posts by Signals23, he has themed the those widgets and made them look even nicer. The free version of Launcher Pro doesn't allow the use of the widgets.
I'll try that out thanks for the help
Stupid question, but I've never had a phone with HTC Sense on it. Right now I have a G2, which obviously runs the stock UI, and I really like how I have Launcher Pro set up.
With Launcher Pro installed on a MyTouch 4G, will it basically just use Launcher Pro instead of HTC Sense? That's what I'd like, but not sure how exactly sense works.
Correct - you can install LauncherPro without any issues. You will , however, no longer be able to utilize the Sense widgets.
Is there a way we can use our HTC widgets while using Launcher pro?
Nope, as far as I know the HTC widgets are embedded into the Rosie launcher. They won't run without the launcher running.
Yeah I believe you need the stock launcher to use the widgets. But if I'm not mistaking, most of the widgets in Launcher Pro Plus are modeled after HTC Sense Widgets. I haven't used that launcher in a while so it may have changed.

Myn has seemed to have combined LP and the Sense widgets, but I'm not sure how he did it. He develops for the Evo, so I don't even know if it'd work with our device.
Thanks guys.. I thinks there's no way to get HTC widgets onto while using launcher pro, though there are many other alternatives.. Still, I luv launcher Pro..
Also do anyone know how to install non market apps without rooting?
Google Sideloader Wonder Machine.
Ok,
So from my understanding, the sense widgets only work with sense.
I cannot use these widgets with other launchers
Has anyone used launcher pro with the LP sense 3.0 skin?
Will I get all of the same widgets?

Sorry if this has been covered before.

You can't use certain HTC widgets on third party launchers (Same for Samsung devices and Touchwiz launcher), because they are a part of the Sense launcher and only available to the Sense launcher. The reason you can see the other Android widgets across all launchers is because they are part of the core Android framework and thus accessible to all launchers. Let me know if you still have questions I'll be happy to help you out.
