There, we meet a scroll arc at the bottom that is just an indication of which homescreen pane you’re on – it can't be used for actual scrolling. Going further than the lockscreen reveals the Sense homescreen. Unfortunately, you can't download new lockscreens from HTC Hub. Finally, there's the Clock lockscreen which shows a bigger clock - you can pick any of the 11 clock widgets you have. There's Stocks too - with quotes flying up or down, again, in eye-pleasing 3D.

There's the Friend Stream widget which shows SNS updates from your friends and the Weather widget which shows off the Sense UI's cool weather animations.

Then there's the Photo album lockscreen, which tosses photos from your gallery in cool 3D. The default homescreen just shows the ring, four shortcuts, the time and the homescreen wallpaper. You can access the others from the Personalize menu. You can assign any four apps to the lockscreen that you like.īut that's not the end of it - the HTC Sensation comes with six different lockscreens preinstalled. Or, you can drag any of the shortcuts into the ring to unlock the phone and launch the corresponding app. You drag the ring towards the center of the screen to unlock the phone. By default, it has four shortcuts and a ring at the bottom. There is some cool new stuff though as this video will demonstrate. The 3.0 edition of the Sense UI isn't all that different from the versions that came out just before the Sensation (that would be the Incredible S and Desire S). Gingerbread should be familiar enough to you, but after HTC's customizations you'd barely recognize it. The HTC Sensation comes with Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread and version 3.0 of the HTC Sense.
