Haven't used this yet but would like to know too, I'm looking for something new to put on my nexus, and until Modaco updates his ROM, i'm looking to see what I can get my hands on in the meantime.

Dock shortcuts, change number of screens, and a few other things. check out the thread. It's pretty sweet.

It's basically stock, but you can change the number of screens you have, and it has a preview feature [double tap the screen and it will show previews of your home screens.] There's also a dock next to the app tray, you can have four icons next to it.

Coming from a G1, I just couldn't get used to N1's lack of the hardware "Phone" button. Helix Launcher2 solves this with its dock.

Gotta side with you on this one. Nothing beats the built in task killer. I prefer not to have a separate program for that.
I've been a die hard home++ user and just pushed helix for the first time tonight. I use app control for my task control, as I kind of think that home++ does a shoddy job. Anyway, Helix is great and I love the fact that I can still hide the taskbar; however, there's 1 thing that puts Home++ above it. . . and that's a button to bring down said task bar. It's great to be able to hide it, but what about when I want to look at notifications that are coming in? Home++ allows for this. It's the 1 thing holding me back.
cyanogen w/GDE home
extended home
i use extended home. it supports up to 10 home screens and customizable submenus. i tried the helix and home++ launchers not bad but helix uses to much memory (9.5 MB) and home++ is to slow and wallpapers don't snap to the screen your on.
HelixLauncher 1.3BETA2
got to go with home++. scrolling through screens is ultra smooth and having the bottom scrollable dock is cool. plus it saves screen real estate that the phone, browser, silent and vibrate widgets would usually take up.

I have discovered last night Zeam.
Faster than anything i have tried so far. Has 9 screens, 3 launcher button, nice screen previews. I have all 9 screens loaded with widgets and is running faster than any other home.
After i tried it, got rid of helix and Panda.
Give it a try at it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664149

Thanks for the suggestion. Zeam is very fast.
I tried Helix, Home++, and Android Mate (which I really like for a simplistic approach), but Zeam has a smaller footprint and is very fast.
I created this thread so not to clutter the ROM thread with verbiage of add-ons. Thank you so much Darchstar for a great ROM !!
!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684202 ( ROM LINK )
Now that we have a great (AOSP ) ROM for our Hero’s, we can start sharing themes, launchers and many other add-ons that work and have been tested on the Darchdroid v2 ROMS. Hopefully this thread will grow.
Being the first I would like to share that LauncherPro Beta ( can be downloaded from the market ) . This launcher is great and very fast .. almost 100% customizable and can be set to have up to 7 screens …
screen shots of launchpro beta at work..
Agreed on launcherpro.. I was using helixlauncher at first but launcherpro seems faster.
Anyone find any themes that play nice? I have tried 2 so far and got boot loops on both.
As for launchers I'm partial to ADW Launcher for Darch's rom. It's quick and very customizable which is the best part. Has the froyo taskbar look with 2 customizable main shortcuts and an app drawer for additional apps. Also gives the nifty swipe left to right for the main app drawer ala iphone, and the SenseUI style jump out screen preview.
My favorite feature by far though is the ability to hide the notification bar. Gives a really nice way to show off your wallpaper, especially since you can set it so the home button shows and hides it again so you can still check it.

EDIT : Also a question for everyone else.. is it possible to get the rotary lock on darchdroid? When the update comes out I'm probably gonna see if the metamorph for it will do it but I doubt it :/
Anyone check out Beautiful Live Wallpaper. Runs great on Darchdroid.

They have a weather skin called none to clear out the images on the widget so you dont always have 2 suns or 2 moons...I dont know if you really care but it irritated me having the repeating image.
How would a user go about using MetaMorph and this rom?

Really no need for a screenshot. If you are using this launcher and you hit the menu softkey you see a white menu with black text and icons.. with this mod you see a black menu with white text and icons.. nothing else is themed or changed...
Thank you so much.this is great.i was sick of the white pop up too. God bless you man.

Someone forward this to GO devs? The lame white menus have been sucking my mind for quite some time.

It's the same launcher only 2.39 version and pop up menus are black.

Maybe I'm wrong, but the menu could be themed by the go themes. Just use (or create) the theme you want, having the menu colors you want, and you can update the launcher as much as you want, without loosing your modifications.
Or are we talking about something different?

Can you sort icons by name in folders yet (ICS)?
I'm using MIUI GB right now and you can do that. I don't understand why they took that feature out :|
Yes you can sort folders by app name now but is it just me or does this feel like a serious downgrade from the last version?

Yes when u open a folder you can click the edit icon in the top left and change the behavior to default to sort manually.
Also, I seem to have lost the ability to resize Widgets?

i didnt ment the sort of icons in the app folders. i mean on the desktop. if theres an option to let the icons be sort automaticalla on the desktop.
Why doesn't this show up in the playstore for my honeycomb flyer? Just curious.
Unfortunately absolutely horrible compared to the previous version. Lags horribly and is basically the gingerbread launcher. I uninstalled it almost immediately.
Seems much better for me on my One X. The previous version was horrible, I like this one but its faaaar from stable compare to others on the market. They should of have 2 versions though, one optimized for GB and one for ICS, because the lag I feel and slow down might be because its optimized for both, I rather have a version optimize for ICS.
Any possibility of a landscape option?

Nope, in this launcher, it only change the icon theme but not the selection color and page indicator for example. If you use Miui GB then you know.

yeah I know what your saying like in the ICS version from what I've seen the only way to change the page indicators from the normal square is 2 actually edit the apk -resign it etc. etc.
with GB I think they actually have the feature where you can just change that within the app.

Download the beta 4 version of the latest launcher from the Go team which is called the 'Next launcher'. Looking at the features of the launcher i would say that its an amalgamation of the SPB shell 3D launcher and the TSF launcher. But the 3D look is awesome !
