Hello,
I just got my LG G2X and I love how fast it is and it is my first android phone, however one thing I realized is that it is really plain. You know how other UIs have widgets that take up all 4x4 of the screen like Sense and even Windows that is what I would like. And especially the sense flip clock it is gorgeous, what launcher and or apps should i get to help my phone look a little less boring?
Thanks in advance1d
I use ADW ex as my launcher, it has themes you can apply to change the plain-less.
There are sense themes too.
Beautiful Widgets is also something you might wanna try. Its a clock weather widget that has several themes you can get for it and what not. I recommend buying it. There is also fancy widgets but it prefer beautiful widgets over it. But give them both a try and see if you like any of those

I use adw ex and fancy widgets for the sense-like clock

If you are looking for the flip clock you can get an exact replica minus the animation if you can get your hands on the old Fancy widget 1.3 or 1.03. Not sure what version it was. But that was the clone of it before htc had a few words with them to make them change there design. you can get sense themes which will change the notification bar to clone the sense look. Does so quite nicely. Lastly to get what i see as perfect replicas of the htc sense widgets is to download launcher pro. Once you have that and it is set up as your default launcher, go into the market and search for launcher pro widgets. You will see many different syles of skins for the widgets that launcher pro provides. There is sense themes which look the same as the real deal and the widget itself is a full screen setup like you were wondering. I hope this helps!
Fancy Widgets is what I use for the Sense type clock. I don't use a launcher.

Try Launcher Pro (pay for it!) The free version doesn't allow you to use their Widgets or resize widgets.
It comes with lots of full screen widgets that you are talking about. They have a Facebook, Twitter, Email, Calendar, "Friends Stream" (which combines all facebook, twitter, SMS, emails, etc, into one), and several more.
Launcher Pro also has multiple settings for a 3D effect like ADW Launcher when you swipe between homescreens. You can download themes for the widgets (each widget can use a separate theme) and you can also theme the launcher background and icons.
It is pretty slick. Doesn't have "quite" as many options as ADW EX but it covers all the important stuff and more.
Be WARNED that the Launcher Pro widgets are addicting. I can't function without them. I tried ADW and fancy widgets before but it was a PAIN to set up all the time, plus Fancy widgets would just stop functioning and I would have to log back in, set up my options, and resync. It was a pain.
Launcher Pro, once you set up your Facebook, twitter, email account, etc access... you simply "Backup Launcher Pro". Then if you ever have to wipe your settings and start from scratch, you merely download Launcher Pro and restore settings. All the icons and widgets will automatically be setup, logged in, placed, and working.

+1 I can't live without Launcher Pro widgets anymore. On a side note, does your Gmail widget work? Ever since the last update it never loads the messages for me...even after I erase/replace the widget.

Hi everyone,
Myself and Jumaaneface have been working on the g2x port and are pleased to let you know it’s almost ready for release.
An earlier build made it out on the forums for testing purposes only, we do not recommend anyone use this as a stable / daily driver.
More details and screenshots here: http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showt...y-here!-Tomorrow&p=72723&viewfull=1#post72723
English packs and other good stuff will be released tomorrow for this device.
Thanks,

Just trying to get a general concensus of which is preferred...if you could post a brief reason it would be helpful also.
weather donate
More like the HTC weather UI minus the different cities options.
Never tried beautiful widgets though!
I have both and I prefer beautiful widgets better.
Tho it was diffrent before.
When beautiful widgets was forced to change its skin I choose to use Weather Widget Donate, but once beautiful widgets got skins, it was far better.
I also have both and prefer Beautiful Widgets. I believe there's an HTC like flip clock available as a skin, although I wouldn't know for sure since I've been unable to get the app to download the forecast animations it says it needs as well as it force closing every time I hit the "skins" button in the settings. Anyone else had this problem?
voted for Weather Widget Donate. I have bought both of them but the Weather Widget one just seems better after you click it. I do like the beautiful one as well since you have it skinned.
Beautiful widget, it shows the weather in landscape mode, weather widget doesn't.
I like beautiful widgets better, but weather widgets looks better in my opinion. Most if not all of the beautiful widget skins for the full flip clock hug the top of the screen and sit right underneath the notification bar... the weather widget htc skin sits a bit removed and it looks much better that way in my opinion.
I prefer beautiful widgets skins and it's landscape look.
Here's the SenseUI Style skin... this is as close as you are going to get to the original (however I drew each resource myself instead of porting the ones directly from Sense).
I cant send it to the dev since HTC is already on his case about similarities...

Can you take a screenshot of it applied to your n1? I already got a refund for beautiful widgets... if it looks good, I'd probably switch
i actually have it on my Droid...don't have an N1 yet. I'm not rooted and am on a mac so screenshots arent possible. Here's a pic i took a week or so back (this was a previous version of my sense skin, it's even more accurate now).
Is that a widget you installed, or did you install a theme/skin copying the desire?
The main reason I chose Weather Widget Donate was because I could customize the skin greatly, and also display my calendar in the same widget. I don't need to know the time...I need to know my itinerary and the weather.
Screenshot:
I prefer Beautiful widgets, weather widget just wouldn't update the time for me and it really started to annoy me so i rolled back to the old beautiful widgets
I have the old data files to make it look like the HTC widget so im all bless
To get the HTC look on beautiful widgets you need version 2.53 with the animations pack on the sd card
.apk
I think beautiful look alot better, especially before update (I still use the not updated version, I downloaded an .apk file for it. I don't remember where I got it but im sure you could find it if you google it). Although I must say weather widgets is faster at opening the forecast animation. But I don't open the animation that much so i prefer the look of beautiful widgets.

Hi I used it on my N1 and it looks awesome! Thumbs up to you.
How do you actually use that zip?

Err that skin is for beautiful widgets. At least I only have beautiful widgets.
Just unzip the folder with all the png and copy it to your sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets\skins\
You can see that all the other skin folders are inside as well.
Go back to beautiful widgets and select your new skin, it will be shown as one of your installed skins.
I will say, BW, is much better. I actually remove the htc version on my desire Rom and use it instead. I sort of like the sun to the right, not the middle. It makes it more appealing..
Buy it...by far the best purchase ive made yet for the N1.
What has been your experience with these? How does one compare to the other in terms of memory usage, battery life, and user experience? Which do you prefer and why?

Launcher Pro wins....just no sense widgets while using
Launcher Pro used less memory by about 0.5MB, I get a little bit better battery out of it with heavy usage (extra hour), the homescreen and app drawer will turn and adjust in landscape, also you can set programs up like the action buttons from froyo since it is included with the launcher. Just remember though the sense widgets will not work while using the launcher so you will have to download third party ones such as beautiful widget if you really still want the weather/clock widget. If know were to look you can find older versions for free so your not paying for something you already have stock with sense. Also follow the link threads and get the 4G widget from rdude (remember to donate since it is useful) so you can still have this toggle on your homescreen like you would be able to in sense.
I switched to Launcher Pro and am not looking back. Battery life is way better but i suspect its because i am not loading any of those heavy Sense widgets like email, friendstream, etc.
Try Fancy Widget instead of Beautiful Widgets. Fancy widget is free and looks *just* like the sense digital clock.
Beside battery life, Launcher Pro is more customizable especially with latest updates (scrolling dock bar, moveable App Drawer button, etc)

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G using Tapatalk Pro.
I've been using LauncherPro almost since the first version was released, when I was using a Sprint Hero. It just keeps getting better and better with every upgrade. I haven't looked at the Sense UI on my phone in at least a week. And that was just because I was comparing the flip clock/weather widget from Fancy Widgets with the HTC flip clock/weather widget, to see the differences. They are almost identical, pixel for pixel.
Also, to get more of a sense ui feel out of the launcher, you can set up 7 home screens, and download smooth calendar from the market. It looks very similar to the 1 x 4 calendar widget from HTC.
One of my favorite features of the launcherpro is the 3d app drawer. Also, the row of icons at the bottom, that you can configure however you want.
And it's nice with the huge screen, to have 5 rows of icons on the home pages. I turned off auto-orientation, as 5 rows of icons looks like crap in landscape.

Does anybody have issues with the wallpaper not changing after changing it inside of Launcher Pro? I have to go into Sense UI change it there, then go back into Launcher Pro and change it there. For some reason it wants to default to the HTC default wallpaper. The one with the out of focus different colored circles. Has anybody had this issue? If so how did you fix it?
I prefer ADW.Launcher. More customizable than Launcher Pro. You can set the screens as up to 8x8, choose widget sizes, etc.
BTW is there a link to that 'warp speed' star wallpaper?

I tried ADW but kept getting FC every ten minutes or so so I ditched it.
For those of you running custom ROMs, do you "ban" Sense while using LP or just set it as default?

There is a app draw shaped like N1' app draw in aHome. It's in the right bottom. aHome supports the third party widgets.
Suggestions are highly appreciated.
Great home launcher. Would love to have some more customization options
i liked the iphone style but the app drawer is so slow it hurts the eyes .... the transition between home screens its ok.
you got to start building caches of the drawer and the screens just like in launcher pro so you guys can get a smoother effect.
I liked a lot of the transition effect when i open one app 5*.

It's slow at first, but after about a minute, it is really smooth on my Xperia X10. Everything seems to have a 'high-quality' about it, and isn't just high-res.
I think it will become very popular if you increase the startup speed, by using a cache for app icons and screen contents.
Thanks for allowing us to beta-test!
EDIT: It restarts my phone sometimes too, when you try to unlock the phone... (This could just be beautiful widgets though.)
beautiful.
but you really should save the position in the app drawer. also, the drawer is a bit slow, even on the Galaxy S.
the zoom out on double press of the home button like launcher pro has is nice, or at least show the same mini desktops as you do when you hold the app drawer icon.
and please add support for scrollable widgets
HunteronX, it's not Beautiful Widgets, because i don't use Beautiful Widgets, but has the same problem Actually i want to use this home launcher, it's smoother & has a great look
And To Dev, I tried again aHome launcher, and after sometime when i took out mobile from my pocket, it was restarted (had to use pin code). Then after some time, when i was using mobile, aHome force closed & yes i had "Wait" option also. But then again it forced closed, and this i had not "Wait" option.
Ok, aHome a option to change wallpaper automatically. I've turned the option off, but it still change wallpaper to its own wallpaper, the green one. And i think, I THINK (i'm not sure), phone restarts when it changes wallpaper :-/
theres no landscape mode ? this is realy annoying !

Thank you for ur good job!
There is a pandahome launcher, i guess same people develop this launcher.
Very nice launcher.

Theme Template/Source
hi, do you have a theme template or theme source code i can get hold of to start doing themes for your launcher ?
thanks
Markyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Hi Launcher.... that reminds me of my Palm time, where i used a launcher with the same name. Anyway it is a nice launcher, just have to find out if
1 if i can hide the notification bar
2 if there is folder support to store apps
3 if it supports notifications for new messages, missed phone calls, new email
The cities for the weather are very few, it should have the option to choose other weather services with more cities. Seems also that applying themes for the weather widget does not work.
I like it!

More remarks:
Looks like the notification bar cannot be hidden, at least i have not found how.
There is no built in folder support lik many other launchers where you can drop icons on top of others to create folders. Personally i like folders much better then the used groups.
The dock at the bottom cannot be customized, i would like to put some other app shortcuts in there, also a slidable dock would be nice, to be able to accomodate more often used app.

I have 3 dock bars going. On the dock bar, while you can't change the main 5, if you have different messaging, dialer, or browser apps, you long press and you can switch from say the stock messaging to a downloaded messaging app.
I'd like to be able to create more folder sections. So favorites, Apps, Games, System, Newest, Times, Add I thought the add would create a new folder (say like a multimedia folder) but it drops in chosen apps from a list.
So I'd like to see it able to resize widgets, change the main first five dock icons, make new folders and rearrange their order. And maybe this is stupid but I'd like to be able to slide the folder area up rather than click and it pops up. It slides down...I'd like it to slide up.
New folder creation and arranging their order ,no problem.widget resizing still not available. Main dockbar icons change not possible,but selection of downloaded apps instead of stock one possible.

I like this launcher.
Anyone tried the latest Hi Launcher v1.8 with Samsung Galaxy S III with Android Jelly Bean 4.1.1?
It says "Unfortunately, Hi Launcher has stopped".
Uninstall and re-install doesn't work.
Anyone have the same problem?
Everything you need in a Launcher!

Your launcher is taking too much RAM!! Fix this issue! Many time I am getting force stops. Launcher is bit laggy. Fix these issues.
Thanks
Good work, but If you make more than 50% of the features premium, which also mostly avaliable on Nova launcher, I am not going to buy it. Sorry..

Then don't look at Action Launcher 3. Basically every good feature is premium...

Added to Wishlist... hopefully prices comes down soon.
Wow, this launcher is amazing! :highfive:
I can even set drawer grids to 10x9 and still looks (almost) ok.
Can I make a request?
If it's possible, can you add another option to 'Dock'/'Icons'/'Dock Icons Number' to be able to select 8 Dock icons? :fingers-crossed:
Nice, looks very promising. I'm a Nova launcher old user and though i find this intuitive and kinda fresh. I would like to try all it's features but it's kinda expensive for this beta stage and features that are available in other launchers at lower prices. Well, i'm looking forward to try this if PRO will be provided at lower price or more unique features are added.
Keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Alka
Looks interesting :highfive:
awesome and perfect launcher :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::laugh:
How does the bind weather effect work? Is there a setting to set your current location? My location service is on of course. Doesnt seem to work. Also, you cant add any contact widgets. The icons disappear after 1 minute and the launcher crashes. This is a huge negative as I need my direct contacts on a daily basis. I paid for prime so I hope it will get all sorted out soon. Thanks!
Any chance we could get a trail version of the pro?
Nice app, is there any option to show dock icons labels ?
This looks good. Any option to add a drop shadow on the icons like the Samsung Galaxy Launchers?
