Gingerbread Launcher? - HTC Sensation

I tried installing the Gingerbread launcher from the Market. When I go to the appdrawer it's all offset to left of the screen, It looks like it hasnt been fitted for our screens yet, Is there anyway anyone can fix that?

i dont know, probably could be fixed but not sure how. Have you tried launcher pro ? you can get a gingerbread dock on there looks the same to me.

Maybe you could shoot Eugene373 a kite and ask for some Sensation 4g support...?

TW4.5?

Edit: look in the atrix forums if there are any tw4.5 fans in here they fixed the apk to work better
Is there anyway to get fr4ggors tw4.5 to work for the sensation I actually like touchwiz and find that launcher real snappy on the sensation only problem is the resolution is messed up and there is a giant blank spot in between the dock and homescreen area

Short answer: no.
Long answer: noooooooooo. We can't even do anything on the phone until we are rooted with an unlocked bootloader. Luckily, we have temp-root and it should only be a little while before they crack the bootloader and give us permroot and the ability to flash custom recoveries, kernels, radios, ROMs, etc. At which point I would ask your question again and hopefully someone can answer. I know Sense can't be ported to non-HTC devices, and I have never seen TW on non-Sammy devices, so I don't think it's doable. Would be cool though, variety is awesome.

Tw4.5 was ported by fr4ggor to all phones but on the sensation the resolution is just messed up because its too high but yes your right should have waited till we are rooted but just so you know the porting part has been done just a matter of fixing resolution can't wait till we have root so I can dump sense its just too much of a resource hog imo the wait is on

Oh cool man thanks for the info. I got sick of TW on my Vibrant, but after not having it for so long I'd like to mess around with it again.

Want to speed up your Sensation? (Look here)

Those with touch screen responsiveness issues and lag problems should try this. In fact, everyone should. It sped up my and my wife's device about 25% and cured her touch screen issues.

I don't know if this sped up my Sensation but it did decrease battery usage and reduced my "ghost" data.

Seems like 6 other people who say it helped are smoking crack too, uh? Don't tell me its a placebo affect when as soon as I did it, my keyboard is much more responsive. I used to have to double tap keys all the time but now my first and every tap is registering. Just because it does nothing for you, doesn't mean it didn't do anything for me know it all. I think I have a little bit more mobile knowledge than to be fooled by the placebo affect.

No **** its nothing special. I'm sure plenty of people have done it since day one. Im just sharing my experience by making a thread. If it helped me, I'm sure it will help others. It obviously wont help everyone since there is probably different causes for the screen lag.

Speaking of keybaords, I decided to try the gingerbread keyboard and man WHAT a huge improvement. Accuracy, layout, and the fact it has cursor arrows hidden under the space bar make this, IMO, handsdown a winner over the OEM HTC sensation keyboard.
OK, sorry for the hijack...

Speaking of keyboards. Ill tell you what the best keyboard on Android is. Its called Smart Keyboard. Its so damn fast, has a lot of skins and great auto correction. I think it has a free trial too. I've tried all the keyboards for Android and when I'm not Swyping I'm using Smart Keyboard.

I agree, Why can't they make a launcher like that?
Maybe you're better off asking in a miui forum (miui-us for example?)
I run miui on my Desire and it's great. The speed of aosp with a little bit of *sparkle*.
I think it suffered a bit as many of the early themes were straight out iphone rip-offs, but the community has really matured and is turning out some good stuff these days.
I'm sure there will be miui for Sensation - will probably just take a little while.
CM for Sensation will be great as well. Nothing like a little variety!
MIUI is based on CM7 source, so we need CM7 before we get MIUI

Strictly speaking that is true, but bmarko had MIUI on the Galaxy S II about 95% working before the first CM7 nightly was out for that device -- I know because I was using it. And even now he has only used a couple of fixes from CM7 to my knowledge (vibration and 1080p camera). My point is with the desire and knowledge to do it, MIUI on the Sensation could be developed without a prior CM7 release.

+1 smirked at that comment
you are both right, and wrong I'm sure if you asked bmarko he would tell you he ported cm7 himself first. Miui cannot exist without cm7. But if a dev got cm7 working, he could plunk miui on top of it and release it as miui without the cm7 base ever being released.

MIUI- Style Launcher is Available If you guys wanna try it
CHECK HERE
I really love the smoothness, I don't have a sensation though, but maybe you guys could give feedback
If MIUI sucks so much, why are you guys in a thread about it?
If you came here to says 'MIUI sucks' you're trolling. No two ways about it.
Too much iphone lookalike for my liking.
Give me CM7.

SK4G is unsupported both by devs and Samsung. Aren't you guys still stuck with Froyo or something? Either way even if you get GB you'll never see anything past GB unless you get CM9, which is highly unlikely.
MT4G has awesome Sense ROM's, a solid MIUI ROM, and a very stable CM7 ROM with CM9 looking within weeks.

What he said
I actually traded my sk4g for a Mytouch and its completely with it. Yes a keyboard its nice but there's no development, and the Mytouch has a bigger screen and typing/swyping is a lot easier that on the sidekick screen.

Getting a Mytouch 4G for a Sidekick 4G is like getting an Audi for Kia (I don't specifically have anything against Kia, but I doubt anyone will argue that a Kia is a better car than an Audi). Don't ask questions. TRADE! Trade and run before your friend realizes their mistake.
I played with a Sidekick 4G for a few minutes and it was a joke. Minus a physical keyboard a Mytouch 4G is better in every way.
