Home replacement
 

I have decided to look at some of the home replacements instead of running senseUI. I have searched and read about aHome, OpenHome, GDE, DXTop, and PandaHome. After looking I realized that I don't use any of the HTC Widgets other than bookmarks so that is not a loss for me. In many of the posts about the replacements people mentioned lagginess on all of them except GDE. Most of those were older posts so I was wondering from those who are running the most current version of these replacements, do they still lag when moving from screen to screen. I also saw that PandaHome can use the themes and icons that were made for OpenHome or aHome. Can GDE do this as well?

I ran Panda Home for a bit, and had battery problems. I'm not 100% sure it was panda, but after I switched back, they went away. Could have been some setting I had checked, but I'm pretty savvy with these things. Also, it could have been fixed with an update by now.

One thing I did like was that it has landscape mode for the home screen. Don't know if you need it though...
