Sorry your best bet is to wait till the cusom roms start coming out, senseUI stuff will go away real fast then. But I agree with you, i'm not a fan of it either.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyleblakepeters:
The problem with Sense UI is the deepness of how it is built into the system. Technically you could push an ASOP .apk of Contacts, but you would more than likely still default back to the Sense version anyway.

Your best bet is waiting on a full ASOP or ASOP-esque build that will remove Sense for the most part. $10 dollars please! :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docsparks:
Come on.. there isnt a way I cant also have my contacts/phone dialer/call log as a seperate APK and not over-write the sense stuff? like just have both installed on my phone?

On modaco fourms a while back, in a sense rom they said that was an option, i cant find the original thread for the life of me right now..

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docsparks:
I still have not found an acceptable solution to this.

Im intending on giving this a full week, before I just return my phone.

I dont mind so much, if it doesnt straight up REPLACE my standard call/contacts/call log, if I can include the stock APK from AOSP 2.1, that runs coexsistant with the current setup, that will be fine.

Someone? Anyone? ill raise the price to $20 if someone can find me an acceptable solution.

Is it not possible for this to just turn into a simple app, like Dialer One basically remade the Sense dialer/contact lists into an app?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aLdaRiS:
every single person that doesnt have htc smart dialer wants it, and you that have it wants to get rid of it, htc dialer > android dialer, sorry but you're truly being a big baby, just return the phone someone will make better use of it.

Here's an

UNTESTED

thought:

I downloaded another Rom from the Hero forums that should have the AOSP dialer and yanked the phone.apk file from the v2.5.3 download (it should be attached below, there's a newer one up there too if you want to try that instead)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=663366

The idea is that if you install it and then press the phone button, it should prompt you for which dialer you want to use and if you select "Contacts", it should drop you into the AOSP dialer. You might need the "contact.apk" file as well on further research...but no harm in trying, right? If it fails, just uninstall and it should drop you back to normal. :P

If it works, I nominate the money goes to toast and/or flipz...because I love toast and flipz's work since my hero days. :)

Worth mentioning, is that I did pull the Contacts.apk, contactsstorage.apk, and Phone.apk, directly off my N1,

and while I tried to install all of them, in the end it doesn't allow it to happen.

this was a common knowledge move to me, as I assumed this wasn't going to work, before mrono and thecodemonk posted it.

I had to leave for the redbull air races before I could post that i tried directly that, to no avail.

but, the lack of System RW root, was the type of explanation i was looking for, as to why it didn't work.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jus10o:
If you root using toasts method and have rw permissions in recovery. Try this while in recovery

adb remount

adb push Phone.apk /system/app

Try a few different phone apks from nexus or cdma hero darchdroid or any other 2.1 AOSP rom.

Sometimes just installing apps wont work. And it should ask you to replace the htcdialer when pressing the phone icon. You dont have to have rw while in android for this to happen. Its something included in all android phones. Just like if you install a launcher from the market, you dont have rw permissions but it will still ask you if you want to switch launchers when you press home. If it doesnt ask then try to go to Setting>applications>manage apps> htcdialer and then see if you can select "clear default"

EDIT: im going to post an aosp phone.apk from an htc rom that that someone put together.

http://androidandme.com/2010/06/new...s-all-other-android-phones-in-gpu-benchmarks/

I found this to be interesting and a bit odd that we have all of this talk about the "Mid-Range" Cpu at 600 Mhz but no talk about the GPU. Does anyone have some information on the GPU and if they are receiving similar scores in this category?

Can we officially stop calling this a "Mid-Range" phone if this turns out to be true?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tissimo:
Remember the phone is only 320x480 res vs the N1, Droids, etc 480x800+. That alone will greatly improve the performance (if same GPU).

IMO a Large res display is required for a high end phone too.. though a good one its still a mid level.

This question is very relivant to the development of this device.

This all goes back to my mantra, lastest dont always mean the greatest. Hell, put it in this perspective...any woman would sacrifice an inch for better performance. I would much rather something do what its supposed to do and do it with blazing colors, than have something look pretty with all the bells and whistles and hiccup in comparison. Ive played with all the android phones from tmobile thus far, and the slide is by far my fav.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplyTravis:
My reasoning behind throwing this in the development section was to hopefully find someone who could shed some more light on the GPU in this phone. I am sure that the pixel differences between this device and others are part of it but it seems as if more is going on in the background with this phone. Here are some questions this benchmark test brings up for discussion:

1.Is this GPU Open GL ES 2.0 capable?

2.Has Qualcomm opened up more possibilities with this GPU drivers compared to other phones?

3.It seems that this is an Adreno GPU, but which one? The Nexus has an Adreno also.

4.How much of this phone is hardware accelerated compared to other phones? I remember taking up the RAM from my G1's GPU to help run the main components of the phone, maybe this phone has a bit more help built in to it.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Linpack is 2.6+ for the one i tested at the store.I think the CPU is honestly down-clocked from what it really is, for all we know it could go up to 800Mhz or 1GHz. When linpack ran there were some b/g apps open.

Re: Mid-Range? Whatever...

If you look at the power.xml in github for Wes Garners's developments on this phone you will see the option for 998mhz as the high end for this cpu. I'd imagine overclocking it will bring at least 1.3 to the table. No info on the GPU yet.

Yes. Mflops came out around 2.2. It needs to be tweaked severely but id assume this is due to the bloated processes and underclocking of the CPU.

Really? That's very low in my opinion when a droid, also running a 600 Mhz get much higher, and my rooted g1 with cyan kernel 2.6.34 get 2.3-2.4 on linpack.

Wikipedia says that the mytouch slide has a MSM7227 processor compared with Snapdragons which are QSD8xxx series. Some google searches found that the 7227 is for "cheap", sub $150 smartphones. Here are the specs for the processor:

The platform -- known as the MSM7227 -- is apparently designed with higher-power,
lower-cost handsets in mind, offering HSDPA / HSUPA radios, a 600MHz CPU, 320MHz
application DSP, 400MHz modem processor, hardware-accelerated 3D graphics, Bluetooth 2.1,
and GPS support integrated in a 12mm x 12mm chipset. The MSM7227 can also supposedly handle
8 megapixel camera and 30 FPS WVGA encoding / decoding with ease, and is capable of
supporting Android.

Well thats because the droid has a better processor (not speed but type) and the G1 is rooted and all the bloatware cut plus probably jit enabled plus swap/comcache. Besides that score seems rather low. I have a G1 and the MTS is way faster. I dont need a benchmark test to tell me that. Its definately as fast as my friends droid may be faster.

... I was just wondering if anyone has a solution that allows the Nexus One to be used as a USB modem in Mac OS.

I know I can use WiFi tethering and I know of PDANet, I am not looking for alternative solutions but rather to find out if the FroYo USB tethering functionality can be used with Mac OS X (Snow Leopard).

Any help is appreciated.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketlo:
well before someone comes up with a real answer (since i dont have osx) the easiest thing to do is just plug in the n1 to usb and not mount the device and turn on wifi tethering. This way its charging and being your hotspot.

Why dont you just try to see if the usb tether on froyo works on your macbook and tell us what happens? It could possibly only take 10 minutes to flash froyo plug in, test (stay there if its works), and nandroid restore (if it doesnt).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urbanlarsson:
I have of course tried this and nothing happens, it is not mapped as a network card like it is if I reboot into Windows 7.

Furthermore, I have searched and found several posts saying that it does not work due to a lack of drivers in Mac OS.

However, this being XDA and the innovative nature of many of the people on this forums made me think that someone may have a solution that works.

The problem is

Simply and has been for ages (since HTC had this kind of USB tethering integrated since the Hero days) that the solution google uses probably is the same as htcs it relies on rndis, which OSX has no proper support for. RNDIS is perfectly supported on OS level in windows and Linux but not in OSX.

Apple has dropped the ball on this protocol for ages, but up until now this has not really hurt but now it does somewhat (thankfully Google also has provided Wifi tethering, which is an easy fix to the problem)

I think for a lot of the previous Hero owners that the Evo will be the first phone to have high end specs like the Nexus One, Incredible, etc. Plus, all the features and its size, among other things just are far too attractive and enticing, so of course most of us would make the switch.

I agree. The CDMA Hero community is pretty solid, we've really got some amazing devs and themers and it should be awesome to see what we can all come up with for the Evo. I'm looking forward to seeing this wonderful future play out.
