Widgets washed out? - HTC Sensation

I've noticed when using the launcher pro, the facebook widget, power control widget seem all washed out but it doesnt when I use sense launcher. (It also does it with adw launcher and ex and go launcher.. is it possible these are not support for a gHD screen?

Move those Apps to you phone memory. And that may help. Don't save them on your sd card. That should help.

ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro

Which program do you prefer? And what is a feature that you like about the 1 you chose? I have personally used Launcher Pro which came with Fresh ROM on my Evo but while I was browsing the market I noticed ADW Launcher and seen numerous themes.

ADW for me
I keep coming back to ADW. The single feature I love over Launcher Pro is the swipe action. Nudge up and Notification Bar hides or shows. Nudge down and the notification bar opens. In Launcher Pro you have to set up swipe areas in the dock, too specific for me.
Just my personal preference...
Put me in the launcher Pro group.
I like to run a clean screen and its scrolling dock combined with folder organizer allows me to access everything I want quickly without the screen clutter...
YMMV

I prefer ADW because of the horizontal page by page apps scrolling. If LP did this I would probably use it.
ADW - Swipe actions ftw
One more vote for LPP. Paid version is well worth it.

ADW lacks scrollable launcher bar.

launcher pro for me. somehow ADW app drawer seems to lag..
I started with ADW but moved to LP.
The smooth animations alone makes it a better choice for me.
I used too use ads but launcher pro is way better

Launcher Pro Plus. Between the Plus widgets and the Beautiful Widgets clock, I don't really miss anything from the Sense launcher.
I haven't really tried ADW, though.
I'm an ADW guy, the swipe actions are very handy. Also, the custom icon ability makes my home screen much cleaner.
Yeah, those are Launcher Pro icons, so I guess it's a bastardized ADW, oh well.
LauncherPro for me...I too love the scrollable dock. I don't like clutter
Noob question Im learning to use ADW coming off Launcher pro, how do you change the dock icons around or add new ones.
I started with LP then went to ADW when it was included in my ROM. Tried LP again because I love the scrollable dock but LP just seems to lag a bit on my phone. I don't know why
So anyways, ADW for me...........for now.
ADW for me. I like launcher pro but I've just grown accustomed to AdW more. Either way I don't think they're that much different to make a bad choice.

HTC Widgets in Launcher Pro Plus

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?

Does the sensation support panoramic wallpaper?

I downloaded acircuit board live wallpaper and all the videos I see shows it move as they slide over pages.
Not just that, but even my brother's galaxy s 4G background move as he swipes left and right.

With Sense, no. With another launcher, yes
Try Launcher Pro, or ADW. They both support scrollable wallpapers.
Do either of those launchers change the way the sensation homescreen looks? I really like the way sense 3.0 is laid out so I would rather that over a panoramic wallpaper.
Btw, did what does a launched do exactly and can I uninstall it like any other application?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
No the other launchers do not look like the stock launcher on the Sensation (which is called Sense 3.0). They are based on other software and allow customization of the home screens and app drawers and such. If you wanted to you can have both installed and use an app like Home Launcher to switch back and forth between Sense and the other launchers for when you want your phone to look a certain way. And yes you can uninstall them just as easily as any other app.

Replacing HTC Sense's home screen launcher?

Hey guys,
I'm all stock everything. I like everything about sense except that wasted home dock/ launcher.
Instead of replacing my launcher or my ROM, is there any way that I can replace just the home dock? I'd love to have shortcuts to my favorite apps on a home dock instead of need shortcuts above it!
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Nope... Not that I know of. Only way to get dock icons is with an alternative launcher.

You could try ADW, same as CM7 uses. On my bar I have: Phone, Handcent SMS, APPS, Touch Calendar and Browser.

he said he doesnt wanna replace his launcher

[Q] removed app but it's still shown on in lockscreen icons (using apex launcher)

I switched back to the stock messages app from gosms pro but for some reason gosms is still listed in the lockscreen apps at the bottom and the messages app now in my dock is not there. I am using apex launcher.
My guess is that the sense lock screen shortcuts use the apps in the sense launchers dock, not the ones in apex launcher. Go back to the sense launcher and change the dock icons there, assuming you're on a sense based rom.

Go to (stock) sense launcher, then move the apps you want to show up to the bottom, that should fix it. Once that's done go back to apex.
Edit: What post above me said!
