Launcher

hey all, I'm using the official but rooted 2.1 Eclair ROM, and i was previously using the latest 4.x Froyd Froyo rom, now i loved the launcher pro style launcher on there it was pretty awesome. Now my question is, can i replace the launcher on 2.1 but keep Sense UI? as in something like launcherpro but keeping sense
I've asked the question before on theming the launcher/ navbar but never got a response, as a themed navbar would better suit my needs! thanks in advance

I might misunderstand your question because how I see it it's a little (extremely) nooby
Anyways LauncherPro can be downloaded from the market

thanks for the quick reply
I'll try and explain in a little more detail. I LOVE how the launcher pro, ADW launcher etc, changes the look of the stock HTC Sense UI navbar, but i want to keep sense, whereas launcher pro etc removes it completely.
So im asking for a way to change the look of the sense launcher/ navbar, for example theming it, ive come across a transparent navbar, but thats not exactly what i was looking for

Well if you look under the theming section there are a lot of themes for FroydVillain. I know Ganii has ported a hell of a lot of themes and among those there's one called "BlackMod" which looks a lot like Sense The only downside is that you will lose your Sense widgets but there are seriously to many upsides of FroYo to think about that

[Q] htc sense and launcherpro?

So today i decided to go over and look at the evo and shift forums. I saw there there were ROMs with launcherpro or any launcher, with a themed notification bar, with SENSE apps and widgets. Now me being a longtime cdma hero user, I don't recall us having that ability. So i guess I'm wondering if it is just that our phones don't have that capability? Or am I stupid and we do have a ROM like that?
BTW, i feel like im asking a real stupid question please don't flame.

Launcherpro Plus.

They are not sense, they just LOOK like the sense widgets. There are many replacements for the sense widgets, like those with launcher pro plus and beautiful widgets. I used to be a fan of sense, but being on gingerbread now, I have found replacements (BW, ADW EX and Pure grid calendar widget) and now I don't miss sense at all!

Gingerbread Theme or ROM (But Froyo)?

Is there a Gingerbread theme or even a froyo ROM with just Gingerbread theme on it? I just want the plain Sesneless look of Gingerbread right now? If not someone should definitely make one. I was going to make a theme port but I wasn't sure it the lack of sense stuff would mess with the phone.

ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro with a Gingerbread theme. That'd be the easiest way and it's all available from the market.

Do any launchers support widgets yet? I've used ADW and 2.3 launcher and neither do.

Pretty much all launchers support widgets... did you mean to say the HTC widgets? If so, only stock launcher will work with those... but there are plenty of widgets that are similar or better than the HTC ones.
(Launcher Pro Plus includes many of them that look almost exactly like the HTC ones.)

believe me, if you're looking for support for HTC widgets in any launcher than the stock sense launcher (rosie.apk), you're not going to find anything. People have been trying since sense's debut (i spent a pretty good chunk of three months trying) and it's just too tightly wound into Rosie. I think most have given up on it at this point. I would go with ADW launcher (free in the market) and beautiful widgets or fancy widget (beautiful widgets is better imo, but fancy widget is free). I know beautiful widgets even has unlock animations now that work pretty well and aren't very intrusive. I'd give that a shot if you want a stock look with an app dock, with a small amount of sense.

Customize sense launcher instead of home replacement apps?

I really like the sense launcher from the leaked gingerbread rom, having the app list sorted out , also the scrolling is pretty nice so i dont want to give it and install launcherpro or adw launcher, all i want is :
1. Replace the customize launcher on the dock and instead get a sms launcher or whatsapp launcher, also the phone launcher takes too much space, the ideal thing would be having 5 launchers in the dock
2. Chose the number of screens, how can stock android have this and not sense? i just use 5 homescreens of 7

I don't think this is possible tjr parts you want to change is the Rosie.apk launcher that is proprietary HTC stuff. There's a thread on here in this forum called Rosie remaps. You should look there for answers.

[CM7]Almost Sense Like Set Up

Hey Guys just thought you might want to check this out if you want sense for our epics. Its simply a theme I found and and adw launcher Theme but it looks exactly like sense if you didn't know it wasn't.
Here is the Link for the Cm7 theme(There's Multiple ones but I am using the blue one for my personnel use, it is super sexy(screen shots are from this as well)):http://tiny.cc/yt6xbw
Then there's the apk for the the Adw theme right here:http://tiny.cc/o76xbw
Give thanks to our awesome devs and nhnt11 for the theme!​Lastly anyone can use the ADW theme if they chose I just think that theme tops it off.

Add this clock widget to your Sense like setup. It's pretty slick.
