I don't think so. Only if you use another launcher. The 3d home screen would be weird with a scrolling wallpaper.
However maybe if someone uses an old sense launcher or if someone were to modify the apk. Other than that I don't think so. Lol.

Lockscreen Animation gone

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.

Sense widgets for an alternative launcher?

Are there any alternative home launchers that allow you to put sense widgets on it? I absolutely love the sense widgets but I hate the home screen lag.

As with any other HTC device, the answer is a big no
As for lag - what lag? I've got none whatsoever

Download spare parts and set the transition windows and animation windows to fast. Also turn off all animations in settings. Its faster, no lag for me.
Oh man, I see the HTC white screen and the loading screen constantly... You don't have that problem?!

Do you have more than one home app installed?
That will happen when the device gets low on RAM and it has to kill background processes to keep it going. The solution ? Uninstall some of the apps you recently downloaded and don't need AND reduce the amount of unnecessary widgets on the homescreen(s).
I wish this was possible too. No lag here but I hate the stupid 3 button bar wasting space. I tried wave launcher but it looks like crap.

Thanks. It's not that bad. I figured out how to get Power Strip to do it a lot prettier. I already bought it so I'll stick with it.

None of those will run Sense 3 widgets will they? Im pretty sure most people know about all those launchers.
Damn u. Remember helix. That was the best dam. Launcher before others cane out.

Exactly. I searched for that earlier today and in every thread there are people posting other launchers instead of just saying no.
Get Launcher Pro download its Sense Pack.

I had a myTouch 4G before the Sensation that was rooted with a stock Android rom and I had all my widgets loooking identical to sense.
Download Beautiful Widgets (it is $1.99 but WAY worth it if you want cool widgets!) There is a clock called "SuperClock" that comes with the app that looks IDENTICAL to sense, especially when you download the (free) skin called "super sense". It also has the sense-looking toggle widgets etc. All with TONS of skins to choose from. The super clock even has the sense animations if you download the free animations add-on.
And just in case (for the non-readers out there) after downloading the app, you apply the widgets like any other (long-press). Opening the app is just for adjusting settings/skins etc.
Guys, is it possible to install Sense 2.x launcher? I wish I could turn off that stupid 3D effect (and scrolling page by page in app drawer)

Post Your Homescreens!!!

Since HTC one S has been launched in a few countries already!
its time we have our own HOMESCREENS thread.....
Mod speaking
Please be so kind to name what apps, widgets, mods, etc. are used on your screenshots

Ok, nothing special: Pixel Rain as background and Apex Launcher with some Android Ice Cream Sandwich Icons. The Icon pack can be found here.
You could have found these Icons already in a main thread here in the forum.
But what is really important is, DzzR made me a few icons on request. They were included in a new version of his Icon Pack within one day. If you like these and maybe others, don't hesitate...
And yes, I love it minimalistic so there is a bit too much of Google on my screen
Here's mine, cute transformer prime background
beautiful meteo
Here's mine. I'm currently using beautiful meteo wallpaper.
My only concern would be battery drain. Do you think that animated wallpapers drain a lot of the battery?
And looking for the more simple "stock" grass wallpaper though, if someone could point me towards it? I made a lot of research but didn't manage to get something working on this not-yet-rooted One S.

Apex Launcher, Minimalistic Text and Simple Text.
Minimalistic Text settings can be downloaded here. Use Simple Text to create your own text icons on the fly and sorry, I don't remember where the background pics come from. It was a package of them, possibly inspired by cyanogen.

Anyone know this wallpaper ?!

Hey Guys,
I had to backup my Nexus 5 and restore it - I didn't realise that it wouldn't keep all the wallpapers etc.
I thought that this wallpaper was a standard wallpaper that came with the Nexus 5...im 90% sure it does...but it's nowhere to be found under the pictures or wallpapers - very weird.
None-the-less, does anyone know where this is from!? It is a panoramic picture so everytime you move across screens more of the pic shows - in my opinion one of the nicest ones out there!
Many thanks,
Jeremy

Hey Mate - it was a widget for 'light flow' because i was having problems with the app and the developer wanted to keep a log of what was happening to identify bugs !

[Q] Launcher

quick question.
So I'm rooted and enjoying the freedom but have a few other questions.
Has anyone installed a custom launcher (Nova) yet? What has been your experience?
If I install a Nova launcher do I lose all the Sense widgets, etc? what are the downsides?

If you use BlinkFeed you can't get that on a custom launcher (no way that I know of at least) and you also can't use HTC widgets.

okay, thanks. I'm really not liking the square app folder icons. I'm so used to the round, stacked view. Is there anyway to change the folder previews with the stock launcher?

There not so bad if you make them transparent. I believe the stock launcher is the best. My opinion of course.
