Hi guys, new posting on the form (though I've been lurking for a month+), and seriously considering buying an Eris. One of the main reasons is how much I love the Sense UI.
I do have a question regarding the UI which I have not been able to find the answer to: Can I install OpenHome, PandaHome, GDE , dxTop, etc. skins/themes on an Eris, without doing something complex like "rooting it," or am I stuck with only HTC Sense UI?
And if there IS a way to change to a different UI, would I lose the ability to use all of HTC's built in custom widgets with it?
I know it sounds a little silly saying I love the phone for the UI and then asking about changing it, but the whole idea I love about Android is the customization. I'm just trying to figure out if having a UI like Sense instead of vanilla Android will limit this, or any other possibilities.
Thanks!
