Welcome to the forums!

Here's how to reset Sense:

FIX: “The Application HTC Sense (process com.htc.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly”

Here's how to back up most stuff (also how to do a factory reset, if you ever need it):

Courtesy of akazbam (another poster around here), here's how to back up SMS (I gotta add that to the How to fix Froyo thread, but for now...):

Yep - search around these parts for either Launcher Pro or ADW.

I can't be more specific because I don't use either personally, but those are the top rated examples by other posters here for what you're asking about - and I believe the correct term is _launcher_.

Also - you might try the Evo root subforum - with root, it opens your choices to a much larger dimension of customizations of this sort.

There are pretty good primers on the whole subject in various threads here:

EVO 4G - All Things Root - Android Forums

And there are also various custom roms at XDA developers (you'll learn about that site after visiting our Evo root forum), as well as these helpful stops along the way:

Custom ROMs - Android Forums

Android Themes - Android Forums

I like Sense - but it's not for everyone, and this Android - so you're never stuck.

Hope this helps!
