Hello,
Recently I was checking out CM 7.1 Nightly (and stable) and I noticed that compared to other roms there is only one line of text under each icon on desktops. When program name is longer it's not switching to two row text. I did something with setting but text was shown one on the other. Is there any option to make it 2 row as in sense?
Yes there is. I notcied this too.
Go to adw launcher settings and switch of
'New icons'

Try the UOT KITCHEN for theming the notification bar.

Look in adw settings to change they way the app drawer scrolls. You can change it to horizontal or vertical scrolling.
With the coredroid ROM, they have some customized status bars you can download to their ROMs. For example when I pull the bar down, it is partly translucent and there is a little Droid guy in the bottom right. You can also download a rotate fix which allows you to view your phone in landscape view even on the homescreen.
Thanks CoreDroid

Hi all
Coming back to Sense from CM is giving me a few issues but there's a few things I was wondering if I could change to make it more to my liking.
1.) Is it possible to have more than 4 columns of icons across the homescreens?
2.) Is it possible to change the right soft key on the navbar (the palette and brush)? I've owned a hero, A Desire, a Desire HD and a Sensation and don't think I've ever pressed it!
3.) Is it possible to have more than 4 columns in the app drawer?
I know I can install a new launcher but I was wondering if it's possible to just do it on Sense with a couple of mods.
Thanks for any help!

yes to all but #1
Maybe a stupid question.
I want to change the space between the icons in the background of my homescreen. Is that possible? I have Endymon 3.4, Launcher Pro. I want the icons to come closer to each other regarding the hight. To add one more row to put the icons in?
Edit: found it, stupid as I was i had already been there and changed the columns and rows to standard, therefore I did not noticed any changes!
--Preferences-->Homescreens Settings-->"Number of Columns" and Number of Rows"
Update Added an APK that fixes Transparent Status and Nav on Android L. It does nothing else new over 1.3.0.
Retribution is a Launcher3 based launcher with the following new features:
- Workspace grid rows and columns are adjustable to 1 above or below the device default.
- Search Bar can be hidden. The work space expands to take up its space in Portrait or in Landscape if the Dock is also Hidden.
- Optional Dock with the work space expanding over the freed space when the Dock isn't present.
- Ideal Icon sizes are calculated automatically based on the work space configuration.
- Icon sizes are additionally adjustable to between 75% and 125% of the calculated size
- Icon pack support (all common types) with a selector that shows a sample of icons from each installed pack. (Based on the Widget Selector)
- Folder Color customization. (Choices between grey opaque, black opaque, grey translucent, black translucent, and the default White.)
- Choose between the old black folder icon and the new white.
- (unsupported) Optional landscape orientation on phones.
- Support for Android 4.0.3 and 4.1 in addition to the 4.2+ Launcher3 supported. (note there are slight differences, unrelated to my new features on those versions. See the Play Store Listing for details.)
I do not try to duplicate the Google Now features in the Google Now Launcher. That can't be done well in a way that offers anything over existing ways to use Google Now. I have ideas for the Custom Page that Now occupies in that Launcher but haven't started that yet.
Available for Free from the Play Store below, or through the attached APK.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nbehary.retribution
New in 1.3.0 (Free)
Bug Fixes (apply to both Free and Pro)
- App Drawer Sort menu now properly displays the current sort method.
- Sort method is saved and preserved.
- Grid changes should always take effect now. (They weren't sometimes)
Also, there's a paid ($2.49) Pro unlock Key which adds the following:
- Applications can be placed in Groups used to filter the App Drawer (and other) display.
- Workspace folder colors can be set individually. (except for the icon, which if colored, always uses the set system background color)
- The work space grid is adjustable to between 2 and 12 rows and columns.
- Icon and Label sizes are adjustable to any value (well, any above 1dp/sp)
- Folder colors expanded to allow any of the 3 folder components (Icon Labels, Folder Name,and Background) to be set to any color.
- Quickly scroll through the App Drawer, Widgets, and Icon Packs by swiping the Page Indicator in each.
- In addition to the normal black or white, folder icon backgrounds can be colored to match the folder background color.
Available here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nbehary.retribution.pro_key
New in 1.3.0 (Pro)
- Folder contents can be changed via a dialog listing installed apps. (This list is filterable by group as well)
Bug Fix (Pro Only)
- Prevented a crash when Quick scrolling in Widgets.

Very good launcher, maybe it could be more simple.
I like grid adjustment option of this launcher. But which I dislike most of launcher 3 is few second delay of appearing and disappearing of application drawer. Can developer focus on this issue?

What device? I've never noticed any real delay. If possible I am interested in addressing an issue like that.
Correction, maybe. I've assumed my phone is just slow which it is, but there are cases on it where it does take overly long that may be something else. (I can't recreate on the 2013 N7, but it that's not surprising.) I'll investigate that.

I am using mtk6589 chipset based device running on 4.2.1.
I have 2 x Moto G's: an "original" and a 4G one - both bought in the UK.
Holding them side by side earlier today I noticed that the "default" font in the 4G one appears bigger than in the old one. I am referring to the text that appears, for example, under the icons in the start screen, and in many of the standard ROM apps.
The only way that I know where this font size can be changed is under Settings->Accessibility and then tick "Large Text", but this is disabled in both...
Any idea what is going on? I would really like the old one to also have the larger font (ticking the Large Font option messes up the appearance of some apps.)
TIA.
PS:: both are running Android v4.4.4
