I found out, that you can add the older android version sites to the phone without rooting it..(maybe some of you already know this)
okej.. so go to:
settings/application(s)/manage applications/then you get to a list of applications, find htc sense and click it/ then click on clear default, then click on the home buttom, and you should be able to choose home or htc sense.. click on use by default for this action, and then choose the one you want to use as normal..

(is just installed home via APK and i could switch with the home button long press)
Didn't know that. Thanks.

I've looked 'n' read around and messed with the various theme apps but haven't been able to find any method to change the default Sense Home "All Programs" lower left triangular button function to display Mail or Messages. These are the two apps I use far more than anything and find myself having use of them on every screen.
I'd really love some way to either open something other than default or better, some way to remove the + button and add another like the left arrow there too so both of them can open Mail and Messages.
Any way that its possible? Thanks.

Install Helix 2 from the market. You'll lose Sense but you can make a tool bar on the bottom of the screen that holds 4 apps.
Thanks...
Tried that priorly, not really what I'm after here. Definitely not replacing Sense and my current config on it except for that lower bar. That is all I'm after tweaking.

You don't 'Lose' it at all, Sense is still there and you get asked to choose between the 2 anytime you do anything until you make one default.. even then, sense is still running in the backgound unless you manualy shut it down.
You're right. I just gave some of the variants a try including Launcher, HelixLauncher, Home ++ but it looks as if what I thought was HelixLauncher 2 was HelixLauncher. 2 is definitely quicker for me and better suited but still no way of adding one or two select apps which scroll open/close with such a lower bar menu button on any home screen you're on. Just as the All Programs do on Sense.

Just FYI, Home++ has two such buttons on the lower bar for opening all programs and bookmarks but they're not remappable to a function or app you'd like (which is what I'm after).

or if you dont want to remove just navigate to htc sense and click on clear defaults or something similar. then click home you can choose android.
i was a bit worried to use some guides from other phones i m new on android i used 4yrs wm so i need to adapt to android os ... iac thank you for answers !
its easy.
go to settings->Applications->Manage applications->look for HTC Sense->Clear Defaults.
Than only press the Homescreenbutton and your wildfire will ask you, if you want to start the standartscreen or htc-sense. Than you can set new defaults

That's the way I did it! I much prefer the plain Android to the Sense, my only slight issue is that there are only 3 home screens. Does anyone know if there's any way to add more?
What you can also do, when you are in the main home screen:
Select: menu-scenes-and there is an option for a clean scene (in Dutch Schone lei).
When you selected this option, you can put in any widget/ application etc...
You will keep the 5 home screens and change wallpaper etc.
When you have done this all, you can save your scene via the same order (menu-scenes etc).
Good luck!

Just out of interest, does anyone know how you get Sense back after removing is as default?

Did that, but it only sets HTC Sense to default..
Hello,
I have removed the HTC Sense but now how do I put an icon so the dialer should popup ? So that I don't have to click on the Arrow then scroll to People and then make a call.
Thanks.

Go to settings/applications/manage applications, find home and click on clear defaults, press home, it will give you an option for normal home or htc sense home.

so if i was to have normal and didnt like it i could change back to htc sense using what youve said yeah??? (sorry but im new to all this so )
I think you can, if that dont work, try and click clear defaults on htc sense instead of normal home, it should still give you the option when you press home for home, or sense.

Ok Instead of clearing the defaults on HTC Sense, have you tried going on Home.
So same as before but HOME instead of HTC Sense.

If you go to "Menu -> Settings -> Apps -> Manage apps" and choose the "All apps" tab, find HTC Sense and then choose "Clear standards" that should do it. (My menu is Danish so these menu points might not be entirely correctly named)
When you press the "Home" button you can choose which launcher you want to use.
Not completely sure if this is what you meant by disabling Sense - this way you can use another launcher but Sense will still be there.
Otherwise I believe you will have to root and install a different ROM.
Cheers mate ..
1st i have selected to force close htc sense and then directly press the HOME button . when doing so sense just restarts .
when i press the clear all data button , it clears all data and then starts ( reloads sense ) and then i start from the beginning .
I guess i have to install a launcher in order to use my phone without sense ?
basically what i would like to try out is just to use the standard interface , without send would it look like this
Cheers

Of course I should have checked before posting but it seems the option to choose Android home has disappeared updating to Froyo...
Before when doing as I described I could choose between stock Android home, HTC Sense and Launcher Pro - now I can only choose between the latter two.
However, I can definitely recommend Launcher Pro. It improved responsiveness so much in Eclair that I haven't even bothered to try out Sense after updating although I guess I should
Launcher Pro is only other launcher I've tried so others might be just as good but if you want to try something other than Sense I wouldn't hesitate
Home Switcher's a good app for this.

I have a question, probably Dumb for me.....but if someone could help me out..
I installed Launcher Pro Plus on my DHD, but when i pressed the HOME button, it asked me to use " HTC Sense" or "Launcher Pro"..... , i selected "HTC sense" and set is as default. Now i want to use Launcher Pro Plus, but there isnt any app with that name, and there are no settings to use it.
I am sure someone can guide me as how can i set "Launcher Pro plus".
Thanks in Advance.
You can either download "clear default home" from the market or you can go to settings-> applications-> manage applications->all applications and look for HTC Sense (there are 2 apps with this name, take the bigger one). Click on it and scroll down a little bit. There should be a button calles Clear Defaults or something like that (cant tell exactly cuz my rom is in german). After pressing this button press your home button. Now you should be able to reselect your desired launcher

Vielen Dank! ..... is it correct in German ?
Perhaps a better option is to download 'Home Switcher' from the market. This will allow you to switch from Launcher Pro to Sense and back (and any other launchers) without having to reset defaults.

Kein Problem and yes, it's correct.
Using home switcher is also an option, but it doesexactly the same as clear default home afaik
