[Q] Faster Lockscreen Replacement - HTC Sensation

Hi
I was wondering if there was a possibility to make a faster lockscreen.
I know that there is a limitation of the Android System of some sort, but does work with the HTC Lockscreen.
My Problem is that the Lockscreen is not always the First thing that shows up, which kind of sucks..
Would be happy to hear an answer or maybe a solution?

A faster lockscreen? How do you mean a faster one? Does it hangs, or you want to get faster "into your phone" from lockscreen?

widget locker! its like $2 or $3 but its customizable!

in the beginning, my phone first unlocked and after that it loaded the lockscreen.
this problem resolved itself.
now its just not that fast at getting to the homescreen. but u guess its because of the app.
by the way I'm using lockview lockscreen.
love it so far

you will have to remove the sense lockscreen completely, I did this using the "remove htc lockscreen" zip file, attached to the arhd thread

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.

Disable HTC Sense Cube Rotation?

Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to disable the 3D Cube Rotation in HTC Sense. Whenever I unlock my phone, I have to wait a couple of seconds to see the desktops rotate... very beutiful, but useless...
Nope.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
What ROM are you using? It might be a kernel issue
Revolution HD at the moment, but I wouldnt mind using other rom if it fixes it (I need sense though)... lets wait, I cant be the only one bothered by this feature...
Thanks for your replies
I think you're the only one GETTING the feature...if it was an issue a lot more people would have mentioned it. Although saying that, I had your issue when using the Smartass governor
Sorry EddyOS, I did not explain myself correctly.
I dislike the HTC Sense 3.0 feature that makes the desktops rotate in a 3D cube when unlocking the phone before finally displaying the home screen.
It is not a bug or problem, I just dont like it and would like to disable it if possible.
Ah, the animation itself? No, that can't be turned off. You'd need to use a different launcher
oh I see... Thank you!

I also hate this one. :-(
Bulletproof rom from romanbb has the option to disable this annoying animation. Just dont understand why it is not included as option in other roms..really dont know what it is good for..

JuiceDefender Ultimate has the ability to do this as it replaces the lock screen with a simple push button to unlock. No animation. Better battery life as well.

[q]live wallpaper scrolling -- vu rom

hello, Im currently using virtous unity rom, and the live wallpaper scrolling doesn't seem to work.
Anyone else having this problem? And how do I fix it?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
i don't think i've seen that option on sense roms. a lot of the launchers in aosp roms have it though. i remember that the streak live wallpaper moved around when you scrolled through the screens.
If your talking about what I think you are, the feature was disabled on the sense 3.0 due to the carousel animation/ layout.
No big loss anyway.

New ROM idea!!!

So I see we have a great line up of roms here for our phones but I have yet to see a combo of CM7 & sense. I mean cm7 had its benefits but so does sense why not make the best of both world? Anyways just trying to introduce a new idea. Also sorry if this is in the Wong section.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
No not it the wrong place. Let me try to answer this. It is kinda impossible because they are 2 totally different frameworks. Everything about them us different all the way down to the kernel. You can't necessarily merge the two. You can run senselike widgets on cm7. And you can take the sense out of sense roms but keep the contacts and what people do like about it. But it would be like combining a reptile with a mammal. They are just way too different all the way down and can't be mashed together.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4g using xda premium
Agreed ^
The framework is just too different. SystemUI files are going to cause a conflict if not the framework.
I think everyone have up on this idea back in the Hero days. There's a project called OpenSense, but I don't know anything about it.

What I meant is modding CM7 to have the ring lockscreen and recently open apps etc. maybe even add the launcher

Lockscreen, launcher, and every other element is heavily dependent on the sense framework.
If you change all the frameworks, the rom is no longer CM7 ... its sense

Easy.
Widget Locker has a "Sense 3" Slider what is a exact clone of the Sense 3 lockscreen, complete with all the animations.
As for Launcher, you can try GO Launcher(use Go Weather for the clock as well)

[Q] Transition Effects

Hey guys, simply put i am a noob This is my first post on these forums and i need a little help with my HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile, Rooted) I have searched for a similar thread but i could not find a really helpful answer. I want to change the home screen transition effects on my Sensation and i could not find how to do this. I do not want something like SPB Shell 3D because that changes the whole 'Sense 3.0' experience. I want some different transition effects on my homescreen because the outside cube effect is really boring.I want something without giving up Sense 3.0. I have already tried Anim Mod but that did not really help.
Thanks For helping a noob out guys

I think there is no way you can change the 3D effect and keep the sense launcher.

Is there any way to change the effects on it? Just any general way that is close to keeping the Sense Launcher?
Thanks, elvin18
What is it you like about sense launcher anyway ? What does it have that others don't?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I just like the overall feel and experience. That might sound dumb but its true. I just really do not like the outside cube effect.

I don't believe there is. The only thing you can change are windows animations and transitions that have nothing to do with sense launcher 3d effect.

Darn, i was really getting tired of the same outside cube transition.

Oh give over, don't have a go. Some people like sense and its UI, I like it but I can also appreciate that some people don't like it but I dont go round having a go at those who prefer an alternative launcher. It's his opinion so let it be and get over it
EDIT: to answer the question, no unfortunately the cube animation cannot be changed without going to alternate launchers. If you use an alternative launcher AFAIK you won't be able to use sense widgets
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
There is a ROM for the sensation (I'm not sure which one) that if you are using 4ext touch recovery with the yes/no function you can choose to have the 3d effect removed, just a flat slide like in earlier sense. Hope this helps!

I was just wondering, because u still keep a LOT of sense UI if you just change the launcher.... you just loose a couple of widgets which are easily replacable... thats why i dont get it.

Hey Guys, i installed MIUI on Android version 2.3.7 and i tried to install Android Revolution HD and when i flashed PG58IMG.ZIP it said the model number is wrong on the bootloader screen and it won't let me get to recovery (4EXT) so I have to take the memory card out to get to recovery. Also i backed up my data, used SuperWipe, and flashed Android Revolution and restarted, my phone gets stuck on the HTC Quietly Brilliant Screen and won't boot. So then i took the memory card out an the battery out, and put it back in to get to recovery mode and i went back to MIUI.
What Should I do?
Thanks Guys
Will anybody help with the problem above? ^
Thanks
