What will these do?
These panels will convert various home interfaces into panel.

What are benefits of using these?
There are 2 major benefits:

  1. Easy changing between interfaces
  2. Better performance and stability of device because you have only one interface loaded at a time.


These panels need appropriate software to run. For example you need to have SPB mobile shell installed to use SPB panel. Here are the links to find it:



How to install it?
  1. Scroll to bottom of this post to attachments
  2. Download these files
  3. Copy them to device
  4. Open files with file manager and install
Do i need to install all of them?
No, you don't have to install all of them (for example don't install spb panel if you don't use spb mobile shell).

To get best results, disable auto startup of every "paneled" interface:

Before changing these, is recommended switch to today panel.

Sense/TouchFlo3D: Go to today settings and uncheck "TouchFLO3D" and/or "Sense"
Titanium: Go to today settings and uncheck "Windows Default"
SPB Mobile Shell: Browse to \Windows\Startup with file explorer and delete SpbMobileShell file
Androkkid:Go to Androkkid settings and uncheck "Start with Windows"
iFonz 2:Go to iFonz 2 settings and uncheck "Start with Windows"

What is NewSensePanel?

This is new experimental panel that uses pure panel manager without any extra apps to launch sense. We could even say that this is actual sense panel and not panel launcher.

NewSensePanel is runnning directly in panel manager, which makes switching very smooth and fast. While normal SensePanel closes panel manager and uses standard today screen,which will minimalize problems, but switching will be little slower. Decide for yourself ;)


You need .NET Compact Framework to run these panels

Post request in this thread, if you wish panel for another interface.

If you are using infinity panel, exit infinity before switching to another panel. Closing mechanism is currently broken.

After hours of figuring damn thing out, here are first results.

I made two panels that allows you to quick switch between today screen, panels, touchflo3d/sense and titanium. Im also working on SPB launcher panel, so you could quickly switch between those too.

I recommend you turn titanium and touchflo3d/sense off in today settings before trying this.

Whole stuff is still in BETA because i didnt have a chance to do much testing.

Please test and report results.

Thank you so much, I think this is great!

Edit: Just installed everything and it works perfectly! :D Oh and when you install the NewSensePanel you can have Titanium on your today screen and Sense on a seperate panel, so you don't need to install the separate titanium panel launcher anymore. I am very happy with this :)

@ matejdro

Thank you for sharing! Great work!

Do anyone know of a Sense cab? I don't like it so much, nor the rom's with it, but with this solution, I wouldn't mind having it installed.:D

Hey guys!
It looks pretty good! thx for matejdro!!
Some problems will fix by using SensePanel (not New) but the New one is more developed))
it works with all versions of Mobile Shell ever made and the WindowsTitaniumInterface is as functional as it is staying on the Today Screen)

SensePanel (not New) is not getting less developed. Maybe i didnt hit the name, AltSensePanel would be better i think. These panels are both having advantages and disadvantages. SensePanel closes down panel manager and launches sense its in native enviroment (today screen) while in NewSensePanel panelmanager manages sense, which means its run on panel instead of today screen.

ACtually if one is getting less developed, it will be NewSensePanel, because there is not much to do. Sense is launched and managed directly from panel manager without any external apps.
