and again a rom recemmondation
I would like to have a rom that is
really fluid (i dont care if it is AOSP or AOSP framework or sense)...
lockscreen musiccontrol (i have been using virtuous inquisition 4.0 but on my phone it's rally laggy)
Quick Settings (either Shnizlon or Leedroid for Sense ROM's)
Working Video Camera
(If of it's a Sense 3.6 ROM, a mod of the OTA because that won't have so many bugs
5*4 Grid of Launcher (even of sense, if it's possible)
This is not the question "which is the best rom" but i like to hear your recommendation for my needs
ARHD, Sense o Maniac or Elegancia would all be ideal IMO.

I don't like the Elegancia theme...
i would also like a 5*4 Layout of the Launcher (even if its sense)

Okay fair enough.
You can get the 5x4 layout with a custom Launcher like ADW or Nova Launcher. Not sure if there's a Sense mod that enables it.

Of course that is a possibility but i would like to use APEX if it is a AOSP (or AOSP-framework) ROM and Sense if it is a Sense ROM... Isn't there any mod for a 5*4 sense launcher?

Hi all, probably a stupid question, but here goes.
I have just flashed my Sensation XE with a Senseless ICS ROM, but quite like the look of the standard HTC main page is there a way to make a senseless ROMs home page look like that without having to suffer the memory hog that is HTC Sense?
E.g. the clock, local weather etc.
You can flash shnizlon's theme on top of any Sense 3.5 or 3.6 (4.0.3 ICS) ROM and it will allow you to pick what you want to keep Sense and what you want to change to AOSP.
for the HTC-like weather clock, try fancy widget.
and if you just don't want to suffer the memory hog, and still want htc apps. you should flash a rom with htc sense(e.g. insertcoin, arhd) and use other launchers(e.g. nova launcher, adw launcher ex), then uninstall htc sense in Titanium Backup.
So I've loaded up Virtuous Inquisition and noticed it uses Nova launcher. My question is, what would have been the difference if I just used a Sense ROM and installed Nova launcher from the play store? What makes ROMs so different from just a launcher?
None.. Virtuous is a sense-less ROM anyway.
Nova have more custom features. The worst about using other launchers is that u lose ability to use Sense widgets.
What makes a rom different is not only the looks but internal system tweaks aswell.. just look at ARHD..

the rom is the whole software but the launcher is just the program that manages the homescreen and how it launches the apps. you can mix and match launchers and roms
There are quiet some differents between ROMS, first of all you have the tweaked sense roms (from which the original source code comes from HTC) and the Android Open Source Project roms, those are much lighter to run and are without any bloatware. However, you should try them out yourself.
There is any ICS rom base on last leak (UCLD2) witch is scroling background wallpapers or this is jus me not knowing how to do it ?
just use a different launcher, I recommend apex or nova for stockish ics launcher, adw ex for quickness, and if u like theming and full customizability golauncher
Thanks i tod this is just me..
Is there a way to use the sense 3.6 widgets on ADW launcher or go pro launcher? I have ARHD 6.6.4.
No

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.
