Hi guys,
I've been playing around with the adw.launcher. its pretty cool and gives more customization than the default launcher. I also noticed the dockbar that comes with the adw.launcher. I was wondering whether there were any dockbar apps like that for the default launcher?
thanks.

It is not an app, the whole launcher had to be redesigned to have it.
If you want to try another launcher with a dock like this and highly configurable try Launcher Pro.
Which program do you prefer? And what is a feature that you like about the 1 you chose? I have personally used Launcher Pro which came with Fresh ROM on my Evo but while I was browsing the market I noticed ADW Launcher and seen numerous themes.

ADW for me
I keep coming back to ADW. The single feature I love over Launcher Pro is the swipe action. Nudge up and Notification Bar hides or shows. Nudge down and the notification bar opens. In Launcher Pro you have to set up swipe areas in the dock, too specific for me.
Just my personal preference...
Put me in the launcher Pro group.
I like to run a clean screen and its scrolling dock combined with folder organizer allows me to access everything I want quickly without the screen clutter...
YMMV

I prefer ADW because of the horizontal page by page apps scrolling. If LP did this I would probably use it.
ADW - Swipe actions ftw
One more vote for LPP. Paid version is well worth it.
LP

Like the swype action of ADW. But I love the lp icons. Both are good

ADW lacks scrollable launcher bar.

launcher pro for me. somehow ADW app drawer seems to lag..
I started with ADW but moved to LP.
The smooth animations alone makes it a better choice for me.
I used too use ads but launcher pro is way better

Launcher Pro Plus. Between the Plus widgets and the Beautiful Widgets clock, I don't really miss anything from the Sense launcher.
I haven't really tried ADW, though.
I'm an ADW guy, the swipe actions are very handy. Also, the custom icon ability makes my home screen much cleaner.
Yeah, those are Launcher Pro icons, so I guess it's a bastardized ADW, oh well.
LauncherPro for me...I too love the scrollable dock. I don't like clutter
Noob question Im learning to use ADW coming off Launcher pro, how do you change the dock icons around or add new ones.
I started with LP then went to ADW when it was included in my ROM. Tried LP again because I love the scrollable dock but LP just seems to lag a bit on my phone. I don't know why
So anyways, ADW for me...........for now.
ADW for me. I like launcher pro but I've just grown accustomed to AdW more. Either way I don't think they're that much different to make a bad choice.
Hello everybody.
It's possible to hide an icon on iCS ? (Menu Launcher)
Software ?
Thanks.
Not possible without modding the launcher. There are launchers that have the app hiding feature though. Give GO Launcher EX a try.

No, but I've been loving ADW Ex with ICS. TeslaCoil's Nova Launcher is a modded ICS launcher and may provide the function you're seeking.
That app is in the themes and apps forum.
hello there, i'm actually using Smart launcher pro 2 but I need something with more "options"
I really like the way Smart Launcher sort all my apps in categories in a clean interface but the main page is too restricted for me
What I would like is a classic launcher (nova, apex, google now launcher...) with the Smart launcher drawer
I don't know if i'm very clear
is there any solution ? Any drawer "replacement" drawer for classic launchers ?
Adw launcher has many options. If You would like to test some 3d launcher I suggest tsf shell.

Thanks!
Hey folks,
there is no really working good enough launcher with an iOS like experience.
I mean, why should I use the app drawer? It is obsolet.
If anybody is lookin for a new project and new ideas I think a very vanilla launcher like this with homescreen only experience would be a huge success.
best regards
You can try:
Zero Launcher
Apus Launcher
MiHome Launcher
8 launcher
And a ton of others launcher without an app drawer...
Call me crazy, but if you want a launcher without an app drawer with the iOS feel, install any (any!) launcher from the play store, delete/hide the app drawer icon on the home screen and then install an iOS icon pack.
The best one that i would pick would be Yahoo Aviate hands down.
