Stock or Sense?

[chriscrasto]

Hey guys. I've been debating turning off sense and using stock android interface. Pros, cons of switching off sense?

(I could care less about friend stream or stocks FYI)

Android without sense is like Volkswagen. Android with sense is more like an Audi. Much more refined. Both are good. Just a matter of preference.

Yeah, whatever you like, no real performance difference if that is what you are asking. I turned sense off, hated it, put sense back on 15 minutes later. But that is me, try it, decide what you like for yourself.

I rather use Helix launcher b/c I'm always holding this phone in Landscape..like I am right now

An interesting representation, but not my question. What would I lose/gain?

Shameless bump here. Will I lose my widget and icon locations if I disable and re-enable sense?

You will lose some refinement.

Just disable it and see for yourself.

I disabled sense and cannot turn it back one.

I go to Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - HTC Sense

The only thing I can click on is "About", "Clear Data" and "Force Stop"
When I click Force Stop, I am asked if I am sure I want to stop this application (which isn't running, the android user interface is). I click on "yes", go back to Home, and nothing has changed. I do not know what clicking on "Clear Data" will do.

How do I turn Sense back on?

you must clear defaults from the Launcher app not htc sense app
