sense ui
basically, there are two elements of sense ui that annoy me:
the launcher, and the lock screen. is it possible to disable just these two parts of sense ui? if so, what does that look like? i know from the video on turning a desire into a nexus one that sense ui and lock screen were 2 different apps - if i'm correct. but is there a way to shut off just the launcher, and not all of sense ui? if u do shut off the entire sense ui app, what does that actually look like? what's gone? what stays?
also, regarding the lock screen & having a pattern lock - i believe if sense is on, u have to swipe down and THEN draw the pattern as well to unlock it. if you turn the htc lock screen off, is that pattern lock default on the screen, meaning u simply swipe your pattern and the screen unlocks, or do you still have to swipe first, then the pattern lock comes up, even with the default lock screen?
