We used to be able to disable Sense and enable "launcher," but not after the ota yesterday. If you haven't applied the update, you can try it out by going to settings, apps, manage apps, htc sense, then click clear defaults and force close, then press the home button and you get to pick to launch Sense or launcher.

I just don't understand how they can do that. I mean I paid for an Android phone. Okay, yes, I didn't pay for the OS because it's free but come on!? What is this? An iPhone?

Open source god damn it! Let me do what ever I want with it!

If you want other wise, try LauncherPro, it's free in beta. Better as well. Really customizable. I put it on my father's Droid and got jealous. I made it soooo sleek looking. :)

For walls, check out this thread HERE.

Page 2 has a bunch of walls, some by me. Page 1 has some as well, but the bulk are on 2.

Re: EVO 4G Update - Lost Android Wallpapers??

I use the flat black wallpaper, less clutter, and figure it might save a little battery by not having bright colors

Re: official Evo upgrade list(what changes were made)

I'm not to sure I'll ever use that, at least for now. It sure isn't worth breaking anything else for. I wonder what happens in my present config? Perhaps the same menu pops up from somewhere when you connect it........

Phone not updating

I know there's a new OTA update out but for some reason, my phone is saying I'm up to date. I had rooted but unrooted by flashing back to stock rom: RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.6_Radio_1.39.00.05.31_rele ase_171253_signed

Current software information on my phone:

Firmware: 2.1-update1
Baseband: 1.39.00.05.31
Kernel: 2.6.29-12443432
htc-kernel@and18-2#1
Build #: 1.32.651.6 cl171253 release-keys
Software: 1.32.651.6
Browser: Webkit 3.1
PRI Version: 1.40_003
PRL: 60667

Does my software version look normal? Thanks

Re: Phone not updating

Stop trying until the bugs are worked out. Many people bricked their phones today before Sprint pulled the update

Re: Phone not updating

My phone wouldn't update yesterday. Sprint has actually pulled the update though now due to phone bricking so nothing to worry about. They will have another update soon I imagine.

Re: did the new OTA break your EVO?

Where is the auto update switch? Mine must be off, but now I can't find it to verify.

Re: OTA Update removes android wallpapers, breaks shootme, disallows Android 2.1 laun

I complained to Sprint Tech Support about HTC removing Android launcher. It would be like HTC removing Titanium from WM phones. So basically we are stuck in HTC Sense forever. I don't like that. I'm waiting for a fix. Its things like this that make people ROOT their phones.
