I'm running Ginger Clone R2 Rom.
On a Samsung Vibrant
the Stock launcher is a Gingerbread launcher, but the 3D app drawer is annoying, is there anyway i can remove that, because i jsut don't like it and when im in the middle of the list, and go back to home screen, and go back to app drawer, its back at the top, how can i stop it from happening or is there another replacement which looks like that but without 3D or that problem?
It is not a problem,
The launcher is suppose to do that.
But if you go on the Android Market
and search "Gingerbread Launcher" or "MoDaCo"
and that one has no 3D app drawer.

Yes, the stock launchers (which the one from the market is stock, just a tad bit modified) do that, the only way to fix that is to change some code or use LauncherPro and use a Gingerbread theme.

Ok so i downloaded "launcherpro" for its home theme, its three screens, its little swipe bar at the bottom, and of course the 3d app drawer. although im having a big problem... i dont have the 3d app drawer because "launcherpro" wont allow me to open it... the open button is only gray and it wont let me. i can only uninstall it also i cant even see it in my app drawer normally or in my downloads under my marketplace. is there a way to open it or am i screwed? is there just another app only for a 3d app launcher? i dont want 7 screens like the helix launcher cuz it freezes and lags to much and i dont need that many screens. Also with the "launcherpro" prior to having it i downloaded it once (my phone is rooted :2.2 cynogen 6(sp?)) and i could open it but i didnt know what it did so i uninstalled it. if i type in "launcherpro" or "launcher pro" its nowhere to be found but i still have it set as my home screen default i just want a 3d app drawer. i have the sprint htc hero. help?
Hi guys,
Yesterday I was trying some launchers because I'm bored with Sense's one.
I tryied launcher pro and it was a very good launcher but it had something I don't like.
Let's say I'm in the home screen. I go to the menu and I tap to open for example Gallery app. If I hit back, with the launcher pro it sends me to the home screen (just like if I hit home button) BUT the Sense's launcher goes really back -> to the previous screen which is the menu.
Can I make something for the LauncherPro to work like Sense on this situation?
Thanks a lot guys.

I just checked my settings, there's lots of options and I didn't check them all but it looks like you could at least set the home button to open/close the app drawer in preferences>behavior. That might be a solution.

As I said ... I just want when running LauncherPro the 'back' button to have the same behavior as when running Sense.

Just tested on my phone and it takes me back to the screen I was on. I couldn't find anything in the settings though, so I'm not sure why your's is doing this.
Sorry!

You launched an app from the menu? Then you hitted the back button and taked you to the previous screen (not homescreen) at menu?
Strange thing. My brother's Zte Blade does the same with my phone...

I think OP is talking about opening an app from the app drawer right?
Unfortunately launcherpro doesn't allow the app drawer to be opened in the background, so pressing back will just put you back to home screen.
I think most other launchers do the same thing. You can try other launchers like ADW launcher, Zeam Launcher and Go Launcher. See if any of them has more App Drawer options for you..

Yes... that's I'm talking about. Back to the app drawer.
Tested ADW, does the same.... that's awful.
I bet it has been requested a zillion times before, but I cannot find it. I love the ADW Launcher EX home replacement app, but I don't fancy the app drawer. Can I replace the different drawers with the one found in stock Gingerbread?
I've tried out the "4D drawer" in ADW EX, but it isn't as smooth as stock.
I would like this too

Just wondering, have you tried the new vertical drawer? Most responsive/smoothest scrolling app drawer I've used. I don't know of a way to only use the app drawer of a launcher other than a 3rd party app replacement like alt drawer in this forum, or shortcut linking to a drawer like the blur one.

Hmm, care to elaborate (bold)? I've tried all there is Even in Go Launcher and LauncherPro, but none come close to the smoothness of stock GB
Well, from your other posts it sounds like you have a Nexus/Stock by default phone, so you wouldn't be able to do this. But on the newer versions of the Motorola skin, like the 2.3.3 Droid X update, the app drawer can be chosen as a shortcut with a custom launcher, like LauncherPro. So you can map the app drawer icon in the dock to the app drawer itself: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/05/3...-new-blur-app-drawer-together-on-your-droidx/
I do not want a launcher or home replacement app. Just the app drawer.
Okay before you all yell at me and tell me to get a new launcher, that is now what I am asking. I dislike the stock app drawer. I was wondering if there was a way to do a complete replacement. So lets say I download Jetpack Launcher, which is basically a App Drawer replacement. I want that APK to be my "stock" app drawer. So I was wondering if there was a way to move the APK from Jetpack to the location of my stock app drawer, essentially completely replacing my app drawer. So when I hit the stock button to go to my app drawer it would open Jetpack as the default.
Anyway to do this?
The app drawer is part of the launcher. If you want to keep the stock launcher and open the drawer in Jetpack by pressing the "all apps" button, you need a (slightly) modified version of the stock launcher.
hi my app drawer disappeared from my tablet. I did install go launcher but i prefer the launcher my tablet came with.

I would go into settings and then launcher settings and see if you can create a new shortcut to the app drawer. Or hold down anywhere on your homescreen and choose the option for your launcher, and create a shortcut to the app drawer.
To get the stock launcher back, go into settings>apps or the play store and uninstall go launcher.

yea but no.. i did try all of that... even when i keep holding the screen...
i know how to get back to the stock launcher but since the stock launcher has its app drawer missing its not much use to me..
i just got lucky i had the google play app on my home screen... otherwise i would have had to re-flash the rom... which i dont want honestly...

So you mean the stock launcher has the app drawer missing, oh that is a problem, considering I didn't think that was possible.
here is the original thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2121036
I read your post wrong, the stock launcher for the custom rom should be Nova or apex, if it isnt go. The only thing I could suggest is the longpress on the homescreen. I hope there is a launcher settings in your rom, and if there is check to make sure that longpress actions arent disabled for the homescreen.
