I downloaded the Inspired Ace rom which I love and has increased my battery life like I didn't think was possible. My question is the lockscreen. How do I change the sense screen to the standard froyo or gingerbread type that slides left to right and allows you to change ringer on/off?
Widget locker. That's what I use.
You can remove or rename htclockscreen.apk and it should show up automatically. Not 100% sure one the apk name but I think I am remembering close.
Located in /system/app
note: if you use the above process (deleting the apk) your alarm will not work.
Widgetlocker looks pretty cool, I think I might have to check that out.
Widget locker is the best. You can make multiple unlock bars, widgets on the lock screen, change the lock bar style, etc. Absolutely worth the cost.
I guess my question is how do you use the add ons in the rom. It has the option while downloading to enable the htc lockscreen but I want to use the stock froyo slider that I'm guessing it also has. How do I change the lockscreen? I would post this in the rom forum but I can't yet because of my number of posts.

In case you have not noticed - the Sense 3.0 Lockscrren on out Sensations now has additional functionality.
To unlock the phone you drag the grey circle upwards. But you can also tap and drag one of the 4 icons (phone, mail, web, camera) and move them into the middle of the circle and you then jump right to that function.
I find that kinda neat, and of couse it opens the question - can we add custom icons / apps to this quicklauncher and if so how is this done?
Also, there seems to be a reproducible bug with the camera, at least in my phone. When I launch it likedescribed above it starts the camera app (i see the stuff the cam ispointing at in the display) but it lacksallof the control buttons. Is this hapening with your versions too or isitmaybe already fixed?
You're kidding, right?

He's been a member for like 5 - 6 years and has 130 posts I'm inclined to believe that that he's just a complete newb.
In such a case, go to settings and change your lockscreen shortcuts

Personalize -->Lock screen-->go to the lock screen you want and choose settings - tap app icon to change shortcuts
I was laughing at this then realized I have a question about the lockscreen too! Don't wanna start a new thread. So when you have an alternate launcher, you lose the ability to access the "personalize" section of the settings, which is where you change the lockscreen icons and ****. Now, to change the lockscreen type or icons, I need to disable Launcher Pro's defaults and use the Sense launcher. I don't change it often, so no biggie. But is there a way to change the lockscreen outside of the Sense launcher?

tj - just pull down the notification bar and go to all settings - personalize is at the top then mod your lockscreen
the only settings available is the htc modified version - thats why car home is blacklisted because if you try to pull up settings it crashes - doesn't care for the HTC version

See, with Launcher Pro at least, when I hit that Personalize button it just closes settings and throws me back to the homescreen. No FC or anything, I just go to my homescreen. Can anyone with an alternate launcher confirm this behavior for me? Is it just Launcher Pro, or maybe even just my device?

okay i see what you mean
zeam and launcher pro do the same thing if you select them to open personalize
you have to use sense to launch personalize
if you don't get prompted to choose between lpro and sense when you click personalize just clear the launcher pro defaults and next time you can choose sense. shouldnt make that big of a deal since sense will just get dropped once youre back in launcher pro
I have the camera bug also...

from what i can pull out of the OP's message, I think he was saying a bug where the lock screen will show the icons and background but also be displaying the image from the camera.
I first noticed this when I was using Barcode Scanner, left the app running, locked the phone, and then hit the unlock button. the normal lock screen would appear faded and then the live camera image. pretty cool looking i think
I can reproduce this
Almost got it with anycut - create a shortcut by long pressing the screen from whatever launcher you want then choose activity - scroll down and choose the second personalize listed - there should be three. the lock screen settings are there and load fine without crashing only problem is that your lockscreen will change to a theme but the icons on the lockscreen don't switch. I think if you tried out all thet settings options in anycut you could do it.
Is there a way to do this in Sense without installing Apex or some other launcher or using Desktop Visualizer?
I LOVE DV, and I've made a ton of huge icons for it, but it's so buggy and slows down Sense after a few days of use. I'd rather just change my icons and/or disable the icon labels on the homescreens. Is this possible in Sense 4?
Not as far as I know (I am kinda a noob though), I think this is one of the main reasons people use 3rd party launchers. I have used nova on cleamrom De and my phone was much faster and smoother than using the stock sense.
It may be possible to edit the apk file to change icons for individual apps but it would take forever.

Does anybody know if it's possible to get the transparent Statusbar when using Nova launcher? I'm running ViperXL 2.0 and tried changing the settings in Venom Tweaks but it seems that it only wants to work for Rosie.
Did you see the transparency option for all other apps? Pretty sure that's what you're looking for.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I like the way that Sense handles the transparency (i.e. transparent on the home screen, black while not). I don't know if there's anyway to do this without using Rosie though.
I can't find a way to make that work either. The closest I could come was to open rosie after a reboot. Then the changes carry over to Nova. But ultimately I started to see some times where it became transparent on apps. It wasn't all the time, but often enough to just stick with the always 3D "rounded" black version.

When I still used the s4 I tried a port of an s5 launcher which had the option of themes
Has that been removed for sprint or am I just sucking terribly at navigating through this new phone?
The only part of TW that you csn change the Color yourself is in any Folders you may have on your home screens. Def nothing like What is in HTC Sense 6

I wish the messaging app could have a black background in the main screen (where all convos are). Is that possible does anyone know? I heard the international version has that option.
