Hey guys
What launcher is everyone using? I seem to have some lag scrolling between screens on go launcher!!
Roll on custom roms

same question here
adw is almost unusable
I found the same thing pretty much, that's why I've kept with TW for now, and to be honest, this is the only device I can actually cope with Touch Wiz on lol.

Hey guys.. found a solution for now..
Im using launcherpro and i bumped all the opening speeds up to max etc, now theres no lag when opening stuff!
thanks I'll try
think i may of been to quick off the mark.. still some lag on scrolling
Yeah, LP has been the best performing launcher on all my devices to date and i too bump all the speeds to ten but i get lag, ill just twiddle thunbs till ICS

Exactly the same here, Launcher Pro is no match for the stock TW....
The same here GoLauncher EX was too laggy...TW seems to run smoother than others---

I use Go Launcher EX and don't find it lags at all. I did use Titanium backup to stop TouchWiz launcher and its widgets from running.
Also you can download Spare Parts Pro for free and set Windows and Transition Animations to fast, this will speed up all the animations on the phone.
Hey I'm also using GoLauncher and at first there was a little lag but I solved it in this way:
Goto Preferences, Screen settings, Screen Transition Effects, Custom, and set Speed = 25 and Elastic = 55.
I've done that and its very usable, still stutters on drawing a GoWidget but I only have one so it's all good
I'd say increasing the speed would cause more stutter as its trying to redraw faster, so slower is the key.
I can't wait until they fully utilise the gpu as that seems to be causing the issue, either that or the fact that I haven't fully disabled TouchWiz..

Try zeam launcher and disable wallpaper scrolling in the settings. The smoothest launcher I was able to use on the note.

What' is the best launcher for lg g2x that won't mess up cause lately I have been getting google errors and by contacts lose the name and it just shows the numbers and I will have to reboot my phone then it will all go back to normal but then my launcher messes up like adw for instance I turn my phone back on then it's all weird everything starts back over and my theme is gone?. So I was wondering why the google thing does that and what may be the best stables launcher.

ADW EX. Best out there IMO. Launcher Pro is pretty sweet to, but I find ADW ex to be more stable.

No lag here. GO is super smooth for me. Do you have your phone overclocked or underclocked/undervolted? Or have you installed a custom kernel?
Sounds like your phone is having issues that run deeper than your launcher.
I've tried a few, but I've stuck with GO. Every other one I tried was just disappointing...
and yea, that sounds like a phone issue, not a launcher issue.
No my phone is not rooted at allbits in good shape and the launcher I love and chose is launcher pre its really smooth and very nice but thank you for everything for the opinions appreciate it

I tried it and um its okay but this is off the topic but I wanna know what phone is better in yalls point of view LG g2x our HTC sensation?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I'm gonna go with the G2x, I no longer trust in HTC's reliability or in how they put thier stuff together after owning a HD2. Plus, I like the Tegra 2.
Its about preference. If I could go back I would change a thing. Well I would stop the part of dropping my phone and scraping it lol. Other then that I would not change a thing
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I would have probably not dismantled my HD2, you can get more for ones with a cracked screen on ebay than ones that have been completely taken apart, working or not. Plus I hate the fact that HTC tapes their digitizers to their phones, seems kinda hillbilly'ish if you ask me.
The stock launcher from Froyo!
i use go launcher and i think it lags a little but maybe it is just my phone. i still like it though
Thank you once again and ill give go launcher a.second change and I would try the stock froyo ha and LG g2x Tegra is Raw but I hate how this phone reboots by them self it gets annoying at times

I'm currently running the go launcher but seems a little laggy... which is the best
Sent from my HTC ChaCha A810e using xda premium
It's laggy if you have SuperOSR/CM7 because the proc speed is set to 600 Mhz by default on these two ROMs.
What you need to to do is go to Settings ->CyanogenMod Settings -> Peformance -> CPU Settings -> Max CPU frequency: 800 Mhz
That should fix all laggy issues you are seeing.
Thanks .alex worked like a charm... I'm using launcher pro and it now works fluidly also...

Thanks,
I am using Go Launcher on i727. Doesn't seem laggy and never crashes. Batter still an issue unless I stop most active bloatware. True of all smartphones, S2 especially.
Using an upgraded samsung battery and have the cpu throttled down and still go launcher is my preferred choice. using SkyRocket Ice Scream Sandwich 7.3 ROM.

There is a a ice cream sandwhich rom for the chacha?
Sent from my HTC ChaCha A810e using xda premium
On the ChaCha, I use ADW because we can fully hide the dock (so there's more place for icons and widgets, it's not the same as when you hide the dock on Launcher Pro or Go Launcher) as I don't like vertical docks.
Good tip upping cpu- canes the battery life tho, just tried it today overall I like the speed but if I was a long time from charger could be bad!

The stock ROM has 800 set by default, that's why battery drains so fast.

Im using adw launcher ex. Its great! I made my own rom.. deleted all crappy apps.. deleted sense.. and replaced it with adw launcher ex.
Spacecaker do you use that one on the chacha?
I have been using ssLauncher for weeks now and it's easily my favorite.
It's atypical, extremely customizable, you can make really beautiful home screens and it works very well with landscape mode. Actually, my home screen scrolls down, so I have lots of widgets and icons and shortcuts that, otherwise, would have to go in a different screen, it's absolutely useful and free.
You can also share your designs, which is a huge plus, as people is starting to do so and there are some fantastic designs out there!

Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
The lock screen is called MiLocker. And while I-launcher is paid, it is only 2 dollars. And thank you thcnme956, I like it when people share my videos. I also don't like apple, but I do have to say I love the beautiful UI they have. I was getting kinda board changing LP and ADW and I like to see a change on my phone so yeah. And while DX-home is free, it doesn't have the whole IOS look. Try Espiar Launcher, it is free, but you won't be able to do some of the things on iLuancher.
The latest version force closes every time I try the new change icon/app name feature. iLauncher now is far behind Espier Launcher in terms of stability and usability. I did pay for iLauncher to support the developer but the app is actually getting worse with every update.
Just install a miui rom ;-)
MIUI doesn't look like iOS to me and is available for selected phones only.
I'm on MIUI and espier launcher

I'm not a big fan of iOS, just testing exotic launchers
iLauncher got updated and the icon/text edit fc bug is fixed. Now I see another "small" bug - from time to time the phone freezes and none of the keys can bring the home screen. Reboot is the only cure. This dev is hopeless. Seems like he is trying to do something but he doesn't know exactly how. Every update has a MAJOR issue that makes the entire app unusable.
And in the menu there is "Restore hidden apps" option, but no "Hide apps" option. Interesting.
Testing continues... just for fun. :laugh:
You can also try espier launcher

I tried nova but so many things require you to purchase the full version. I prefer apex its damn near the same as adw ex.
I'm using Apex right now - I decided to simplify the phone a bit and use something other than GO Launcher for a while. I'm liking Apex quite a bit so far - smooth and light, and with just enough customization options in the free version.

Holo Launcher is one of my favorite ! : here
You can try the Xperia-home launcher --> it's a great launcher, fast and powerfull. A lot of custom romm use it by default.
And FTL (Faster Than Light) launcher --> really great too and not discontinued so it'll improve ^^
Until today I've tried holo, adw ex, go launcher.
I think I stick to adw, it has cool animation, 4d drawer and eats an admissible amount of ram.
Go launcher is freaking nice but kills down my phone.
Holo is the fastest I've tried but lacks in customization.
