Im running ARHD 6.1.2 and ive removed the sense lockscreen in favor of the good old android classic. However the rotary lockscreen is what I would prefer. Any idea if I can flash it somehow?
Im fully aware of widgetlocker and other apps like it...and I would prefer not to use them.

I remember from CM7 there are many screen locker options, but ARHD is supposed to be stock, and since stock doesn't have that ability, widgetlocker is your best bet.
OR search the forum for rotary screen locker.

No not weird at all. I'm the same way. At last some one that understands. I've been using Beautiful Widgets very similar. Not the clock and weather toggle. I bought that and it wasn't quite up to par. No raindrops on the glass or clouds and thunder. Beautiful Widgets was worth the money though. I was going to check this Digital Clock out too. Just haven't yet. If you try it let me know how you like it.

The sense widgets REQUIRE sense framework and the rosie launcher.
There was an app that was pulled from the market called 'Fancy Widget'. All I will say is that it was pulled via C&D by HTC themselves for being 'too similar' to the proprietary clock widget you are looking for.
"Fancy Widget" Google is your friend.

Yeah Fancy Widget is the one run by the Weather and Toggle app you have to buy to make it run. Not really what the sense clock is like. I liked the Beautiful Widgets way better. You can play with different skins till you find one that suits you and the Boca weather skin is just like the sense weather.
Actually. That is not correct. Fancy Widget is different and you can Google it. I use it because you can set if to update more frequently. If the stock app updated every 30 minutes like you can set Fancy Widget to do I would still be using it...

what about other HTC widgets? I would love to use LauncherPro but I have to have the HTC Photo Album widget to show off my new baby girl. I know there are other photo widgets and I have tried almost all of them but none can compare to the HTC. Please help I am sick of using the rest of Sense....
Every HTC specific widget cannot be run on any Launcher except Rosie and cannot be ported without making an exact replica with the same images like Fancy Widget. People need to realize this and stop asking.
There is a separate Widget named Fancy Widget, it was pulled from the Market, because... IT IS EXACTLY the same as HTC clock, they literally copied the images. It is wonderful, a little more flexible, and can be setup to check more often, and launch whichever clock and weather app you choose when you touch.... Only thing it does not do is animations. Google "Fancy Widget apk" and really look as stated prior if you want the HTC clock...
If you want something attractive, slightly different, and still free check out
Weather Widgets (yr.no) http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.ermesjo.yr I switch between this and Fancy Widget based on how I am feeling lol
As for anyone missing other HTC widgets... support Launcher Pro and purchase Launcher Pro Plus, the widgets are very comparable... and the guy has written a wonderful piece of software... so pay the 2.99!!
I just downloaded Fancy Widget 1.3 and it is basically the same exact thing as the HTC Sense Clock widget but it allows you to configure what application it launches when you hit the weather icon, date or time. I just installed it and haven't seen if it does the weather animations but I could care less about that.
I was wondering if there is a way to put the weather on the lockscreen for the SK4G, my wife is jealous of the lockscreen from my HTC Sensation. I know the sense roms have the nice looking weather, and I've found stuff like WidgetLocker and Agile Lock that allow a widget on the lock screen, but was hoping for more like the sense screen. Anyone have a clue how to do that?
That would require having an entirely working AOSP style screen to be able to apply widgetlocker widgets without lockups and random failures, and then finding a similar to sense weather widget.
Use widget locker, beautiful widgets and a sense themed lock from the widget locker themes thread

I'm currently on Trip's MiUI, and I really can't get myself out of it, but at the same time I really want to go back to CM7.
Are there any amazing themes for CM7 + ADWEX that would compare to the theming that MiUI has? I'm running NEON (Blue) right now. Also, I really love the custom lockscreen's that MiUI has, anything comparable using CM7 + ADWEX?
widget locker which isnt free, but worth the price you pay for the lockscreen
and if you like the miui launcher, theres one on the android app thread
I went back to CM7 last night. I got WidgetLocker, and I'm trying to figure out how to get those custom icons on the lockscreen. I wanted a minimalist approach to it. I want a similar lockscreen to the MiUI one where it's a wheel and you just drag the centre to the app icons. I don't think that can be done on WidgetLocker though.
I have the miui theme on my widget locker. You have to go to the XDA thread for widget locker

Im running ARHD 6.0.3 XE and I've been looking for a ICS lockscreen with a message/call/camera/unlock option instead of just the camera/unlock option. I have seen that type of lockscreen and can get it using GO Launcher EX (with GO Locker plugin) BUT the issue is that I hate that launcher due to the widgets for it don't work for some reason so I stick to sense 3.5 I just want to change the lockscreen but not the actual launcher. I would like to keep sense 3.5. I've been looking into WidgetLocker with the ICS theme but i cant find a pic of the lockscreen and I dont want to pay for the program to find out that the ICS theme lockscreen for it only contains the camera/unlock options rather than the camera/message/call/unlock options. I attached a pic of what im looking for, its a pic from Go Launcher ICS Locker plugin. I have searched all over the web and xda and only found apps that only contain the camera/unlock option. Is it possible to use the lockscreen without using Go Launcher? (Im a noob, sorry). thanks so much in advance!

I have never had any lag from Widget Locker. I'm pretty sure you'll be satisfied with the results.

widgetlocker won't make you feel lag. but widgetlocker may not open in the 1st minute you turn on the phone. no big deal. good app in deed.

Go into advanced settings in Widget Locker and disable stock lockscreen and the issue with standard lockscreen popping up is gone.

miLocker from the Market. It's awesome. It gives you all MIUI lockscreens including ICS lockscreen. Trust me you'll love it.

Can't d/l from market using Virtuous Inquisition ICS. But last I checked, and restored from an old backup, the milocker wasn't compatible with ICS.

No pattern, pin or face unlock.
All of these lock screens allow anyone to pickup your phone and give you a massive creditcard bill from Google Play... what are you thinking?
OMG
DUDES need not a app need a MOD same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1455154
I dont know if this is at all possible without theming but I was curious if you could get the sense 4+ on an aosp rom. Maybe not all the extra apps like the music and messaging and camera but the lockscreen and the widgets. I have tried all sorts of stuff with go launcher and beautiful widgets but they just don't do it justice. Is there a way to port this???? Has it already been done?

First of all, this should be in the Q&A section. Secondly, the closest you will get is a modded Sense ROM. I jumped ship from sense as fast as I could so I don't really follow the news, but I have heard that Viper ROM is the most AOSP-like Sense ROM.
No... Certain aspects or sense rely on the sense launcher... Like the clock...idk about the lockscreen...but mostly everything else is a no go on a diff launcher
Sense is very heavily tied into the framework. Ports are possible, like when I had a captivate there was a sense port but it was extremely unstable. It's just not worth the hassle really

you could always use a senseless rom so you could have other launchers but have sense lockscreen still
Go with Viper rom, use Apex or Nova launchers. You will have an Aosp style launcher while still maintaining the lockscreens, and HD Widgets will look just like sense.

In my experience all third-party launchers introduce a notable lag (compared to Rosie) when opening home screens, app drawer, etc. And this is with all possible animations and other eye candy turned off. Seems that as long as Sense is running in the background you have to go through an extra layer to get to the Launcher.
