Well, alot of ppl chose to buy Desire (including me) at the first place is because of the sense UI. If not why not buy N1 instead. Yeah as we become more pro and pro we might start thinking that sense is nothing but a clutter of crap, but its still the best launcher made by any phone manufacturer. Touchwiz or Motoblur or whatever are not even close. There are widgets out there which are just emulating Sense widgets already shown that how handy they are.

My point is, its really a matter of preference. Depends on what u do more with your phone. I am not even using a Sense ROM currently myself, but I would say majority of Desire users out there will always choose Sense over AOSP ROMs.

So yea..advanced users dislike it but IMO Sense, and all custom made UI are crucial to Android development, at least until now. Do u think Android can reach its current popularity if every single Android phone out there had been using vanilla Android?

P.S. am patiently waiting for a Sense+Gingerbread ROM. Haha.

Dialer One. the stock AOSP dialer is a good dialer. the only thing they missed is the T-9.

i still think Android will achieve greatness even without Sense. but yeah it was all about preferences, who said you should follow what i said? i was being sarcastic up there.

I want N1 but it wasnt in my budget to buy without contract so i have to choose the maxis plan. i never know bout Sense when i bought Desire. All i know is Android, and its open! but dang it got stucked in sense, when the maxis seller turn the phone on in front of me. Lucky there are AOSP's!

Sense's dialer and widgets are handy, the interface are nice, but when you explore the inner side of it, its bloated. it can be better. i wish i could have the sense dialer on AOSP, but widgets, can be replaced by others.

I'm building my own Gingerbread rom now! based on CM7 source!

Preferences preferences bro.. tongue.gif

I'm using the N1, mainly because I initially hated Sense (HTC Magic days) so I got that instead.

Then Sense 2.0 came out, boy do I love that drool.gif especially that darn flip clock. Wish that could be implemented in other launchers wub.gif

Of course, I preferred speed anyday, so here I am, randomly flashing CM7 nightlies and MIUI ROMs from time to time tongue.gif And the occasional Sense 2.0 ROMs.
