Really? On my Rogers One XL, you can only change the colors of the default launcher and notification bar between black, "aluminum" and slightly transparent. No curved Sense 3 style launcher. No extra skins available for download yet either.
Seems if you're looking for the old Sense 3 "Rosie" style launcher (phone button in the middle, apps on the left, personalize on the right) you'll be disappointed, at least for now unfortunately.

Isn't Rosie the name of the pre-4.0 Sense UI? I figured he was talking about the new launcher, which I don't think we can do much about right now besides change the color and transparency a little...
I forgot all about the lockscreen. Seems pretty much unchanged to me and has all the usual options for changing styles. I have mine set to show the weather. Guess it depends what exactly he wants to skin.

[DEV Q] Small (high resolution) Icons

Hi all when the development goes under way, is it possible to use smaller hi resolution icons on the sense screen? If you go into the dock mode it uses smaller, nicer looking icons. Would be nice to have this on the main sense menus.

I don't understand... What did you develop? I see the word "development" in your question, but nothing that you've developed.

What he means is like the guys @ HD2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957652
They use 167dpi for the screen so you can have much more icons next to each other. Everything gets smaller, so you have more space on the screen. I hope they make that available when my sensation gets unlocked
Just use adw launcher and increase desktop column/row count.
That's not the same. Icons don't get smaller this way and the UI stays big. With the dpi mod, everything changes.
I use the combo of Multicon and Folder Organizer apps. Folder Organier is a paid app which is free on Amazon appstore for today. It makes folder and widget like the iPhone folders. While Multicom squeezes multiple icons into defined widget space.

If I want to change the size of icons I usually resort to using LCD density changer and launcher pro, only problem is it changes the density of everything.

[LEAK] Preview of the new HTC Sense 4 on ICS

The HTC Ville has been caught on video ahead of its expected MWC 2012 debut, showing off both its slimline form-factor as well as a glimpse of HTC Sense 4.0. According to the Android 4.0 smartphone’s hardware info page, it runs a 1.5GHz dualcore processor with 1GB of RAM and a 4.3-inch qHD touchscreen. There’s also WiFi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 and an 8-megapixel main camera.

Look nice.
I'm sure there will be some ports soon
I'm wondering if they will release an official ICS and Sense 4.0 for Desire S.

I hope so or let's say, I wish. And if they do, I'm curious if the 50 gigs of Dropbox space will be available for us.
Am i the only one who thinks this is bad? I like the animations, and the new filp clock, horizontal app drawer is nice too. But i HATE the grey colour scheme. It's in the 3.5 app drawer, i always switch to transparent app drawer. Now, it's on the lockscreen shortcuts, dock, notification panel, menus in short everywhere !! The settings menu has an ugly tint of white. The bottom part of the lockscreen is gone (the arc where the ring was). I hope it's an early build and they change stuff........
PS - Comparing this to Sense 3.6 in the Sensation thread, i think Sense 3.6 is better.

I must say i agree with you shrome...
It doesn't look like too much of an improvement. I like stock ICS better that the Sense 4.0 in the leaked video. And overall, i still think Sense 3.5 is the best looking UI, followed closely by stock ICS.
Isn't the grey color because of the camera with which the leak was recorded?

yeah i agree with this too,the grey looks very bad but i like every thing else except maybe the bottom bar...but i remember that when sense 3.5 i had the same bad feeling because of the crappy leaked screenshots...lets hope sense 4.0 looks better on the device
one thing i didnt understand is inclusion of capacitive buttons,why did HTC include this on a device launching with ICS? if they didnt include the buttons they could have used that screen space for apps & browsing..
Do you think that the HTC Sensation XE ICS ROM would make a better port for things like getting the camera working properly in roms such as Quattro?
go to phandroid for an article about this (I'm still technically a new member despite reading xda for years now lol, need to do more posts to get full privileges)
"Early this year" is a bit rough, not sure whether HTC will release it in Q1 but would be good to have a few HTC ICS ROMs for devs to pull things from to get all features working
Id be happy to get 3.6 on my DS already lol, will keep me busy till v4
Any plans to port it over to DS from Sensation?

Nope. As I read from pocketnow, (I can't remember the source) HTC have given a new aporoach and decided to ditch the dark black theme for this new grey theme now.

Nope. That's why Endymion and other ROMs run really well with no major inconsistent size issues.
Yeah, those ports were based on the original Sensation. Also, there was only 1 port for us, Virtuous. It required a lot of time to resize, and it wasn't as perfectly done as having it in ready format, straight from htc. remember there were so many bugs? Inconsistent widget sizes etc. There's no more point wasting effort trying to perfect the qHD port. might aswell wait for the XL ICS.

as i know should be out this month for the XL
I actually quite like it. It seems to have a much cleaner look than previous versions which I felt were too bloated. I guess we'll see if sense remains king of bloat

Seems legit. Finally more quick shortcuts at the bottom.

Sized?
I use Beautiful Widgets with Apex Launcher and they have a nice "Sense 4" skin. And as long as the launcher is capable it can be resized.
Beautiful Widgets, was once threatened by HTC for its likeness

1. stripes in the black bars on weather and app launcher and app bar on homescreen are away

Yeah it's very possible. I'm working on one now. I just cannot figure out how to make the radio buttons work (be light blue). They take on a darker color than whatever color you set them at for some reason - may be a smali issue....
Nice! Hope u got it soon. What are the radio buttons?

Anyone using other launcher?

I'm using pixel 2 launcher, is really fast
I've always admired the look of the windows phone ui and have gone through tons of windows phone launchers over the years. I've been using SquareHome 2 and I'm just amazed at how customizable it is.
Have always used Nova as Sense was not too good on all my previous HTC phones but I gave it a good try for a couple of days on the HTC U12+.
But quickly installed Nova again and it made this phone even more awesome.
Shame really, Sense has improved immensely and is quite usable now but Nova is just better, quicker and more configurable.
Only thing I miss is Blinkfeed.
I have a fully configured Nova set up on mine, but I go back to Sense most of the time simply because the lockscreen's dock icons don't match when I use Nova, and as far as I know, I can't edit the lock screen.

I know on my HTC 10 the screen lock icons are the same as the icons in the dock of the Sense home screen. So you just need to adjust them there and then revert to Nova Launcher.

Oh no, I knew that. I meant more that the icon theme I'm using in Nova doesn't carry over to the lockscreen.

different theme engine unfortunately.
nova all the way. Google now still works on a slide from left. Widgets still work with google now. More customizable and themeable. Working great so far.
Using the ported Pixel launcher I found on here, works great
