Hi all,
I'm currently on the V13 rom purely for the sense widgets [mail, messages, stock clock, people, etc]. I would like to move on to a 2.2 or 2.3 rom but notice there isn't quite the final working rom that supports sense. I think ChocolateFroyo 2.2 is the closest but doesn't have working camera?
Anyhow, thinking that if i update to an AOSP 2.2/2.3 rom, are there any apps in the market that provide the sense widgets feel?
Any other suggestions welcome!
Thanks
Launcherpro Plus supports themes now, there's a sense theme out for that, the guy that's done them has also made a sense style weather clock widget

Also Go launcher ex with Go weather provides free widgets with there launcher. Maby you should check that out.

Fancy Widget or Beautiful Widgets for the clock and stuff if you want.
can someone tell me which is the best home screen clock other than the sense one ? thank you
Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widget are my favorite other than Sense.
Thanks guys! Gonna install the Froyd 1.7.3 rom once my battery charges then I'm gonna have me some fun with the sense theme and Fancy Widgets!
fancywidget is the best
I use fancyWidget with the sense clock and its beautiful
Alright, got the new rom, got launcherpro plus and fancy widget [i love this!!]. So i won't bother with the LPP sense theme now. However i notice LPP doesn't have an email widget [gmail widget is useless to me]. Anyone know of a good [sense like] email widget?
Thanks!!!

Is it possible to have HTC Hero Clock widget on CM 4.2.3? If so what files I need to apply? Please just give me an idea if its possible to do.
Thanks!!
Look up beautiful widgets its a replica of the HTC clock and little settings switches ,
So far only way to get it on doughnut until HTC updates their sense UI
The BeautifulWidgets app is very good. I've had some problems in the past getting it to sync correctly, though. The Beautiful pack has a few other decent widgets mixed in with it too.
or use weather widget donate for the touchflo3d look clock with the weather
Thanks for ideas guys. I already tried weather widget donate and no complaints. I'm going to try Beautiful Widgets now.
is anyone currently trying to port the weather animation from sense 2.1 to an apk? i think it would be a better alternative than the LWP that levelupstudios put out for BW.

Weather & Toggle Widget w/ H7C (HTC) skin is the way to go. It looks like like the sense weather clock...
Hi, I love the sense widgets, and the Launcher Pro bottom bar and app menu. Is there any way to get the best of both?
Like this: (but not with the background clash)
Thanks, Andy
You may want to check out SenseHERO 2.1 B5 as it has something very similar.

I have used this rom and like it very much.

unfortunately, sense widgets and launcherPro cannot co-exist...I think the best solution is to keep launcher pro and use some widget sense-like..
for example:
htc clock-> fancy widget
emails and sms-->pure messenger widget
calendar-->Pure Grid calender Widget
i don't remember other htc widgets...if u need more help just ask to me
The small clock widget and the small wheater?
LauncherPro Plus
Buy LauncherPro Plus ($2.99 via Paypal). It contains Sense-style widgets for people, bookmarks, calendar and messaging.
For clock % weather I advise Beautiful Widgets (EUR 1.49) or Fancy Widget (for free).

Where can you get fancywidget? It doesn't appear to be on the market anymore?
EDIT: Nevermind, donned an eyepatch, hopped on a ship and floated to a website that had it.
How to surivive on an Android device without Sense
First step: Download Launcher Pro from the Market and donate $2.99 to unlock the Plus features. When unlocked you can add People, Bookmarks, Messaging, Calender and a Twitter widget very similar to the Sense widgets.
The second step is downloading BeautifulWidgets. You can get it at Market or AppBrain. It's a skinable clock/weather widget, similar to the sense clock with over 180+ skins. You're bound to find something that tickles your fancy if you like the Sense look.
The third step is downloading some widgets that look really sweet on your homescreen. Some of my personal favorites are:
- Digital Clock Widget
- Tajm
- BattStatt
- Pure Messenger
- Pure Calender
- Pure Music
- Weatherbug Elite
- 3G Watchdog
- Desktop Visualizer (for making icons/shortcuts)
- SD Card Storage Widget
- Inernal Phone Storage
- System Info Widget
When I made the jump from Sense to a ROM without, I missed it a lot. But only because I didn't know about all the apps/widgets that are actually out there. Good luck.
What's everyone that's running a froyo rom using to replace the sense widgets?

I'm using LauncherPro's agenda widget along with Fancy Widgets (scrollable, yay!).
Right now, I'm running CM 6 and I had launcher pro plus, loved the widgets but i found it was using up quite a bit of my battery. I'm trying to switch back to ADW launcher but I cant find anything close to the widgets that Launcher pro offered(i.e. bookmarks, messaging scroll widget). I've looked at beautiful widgets, pure messenger, and some other ones but can't quite find anything like it.
Is there a way to get sense widgets on cm6 other than launcherpro? Even the clock widget that has alarm+timer+stopwatch when you click it(i have weather widgets so it looks identical). And also the bookmarks4x4 and messaging scrollable widgets.
No you can not get sense widgets unless you are running a 1.5 ROM or Sense its self because the apps need to be ported along with the corresponding framework, which was done on some 1.5 ROM[look it up]. If you really want them search for a stable sense ROM idk if 32A has any but i know 32b does have a stable one by Xillius . Use Launcher Pro or Pro Plus and find a battery optimization apk as-well..
If you want sense... use a senseui rom. Simple as that.
