I don't like trebuchet launcher but I love the ICS look as I'm running jokers 4.0 ics cm9 rom on my atrix. Any ideas? Or go launcher themes/ other launchers y'all know about?
Anyone know a way to change icons in trebuchet? That would change...part of my opinion.

Apex vs nova launcher

I really like apex launcher but if ur looking for icon changes go launcher is the best. U can't change icons in app drawer that's obvious, but the desktop ones can be changed easily. Alternatively u can use icon changer app
Hit THANKS if I helped u

If you love the ICS look I suggest you the Apex launcher or Nova launcher. I prefere Apex but I think you should test the launcher. They are all free.
Nove Launcher is the best

And why? Personally, I prefere Apex because it has all feature, for some functions you must pay for Nova launcher. Also I haven't seen any advantages of Nova, but I think everyone has his own opinion
I tried both and used apex ....it had more to offer for free

I have to agree. I prefer using Apex over Nova with my LG Nitro, probably until Trebuchet comes out with new updates.
Both Apex and Nova are great launchers anyways.
I As the guys above said, try out apex and nova. Apex does have more features but I decided to stick with nova, got quite a few fcs with apex. PS I agree with avoiding go launcher, would definitely ruin all that ics goodness

In my opinion you should try Apex because it is very fluid and customizable, and above all free ... Excuse my writing in English, but I'm not very conversant with the language ...

Nova.
I tried Apex but found it a little laggy and slow. Ended up removing it and sticking with Nova. I paid for Nova as well so Apex would have had to have been something amazing to make me switch anyway - and it wasn't. It was Nova with one or two extra options which I can live without anyway.

Apex runs very smooth for me. Other than apex I tried sslauncher which seems nice and also TFS (expensive though).

In apex settings, go to advanced settings and check "Keep in memory".
this will reduce redraws

I tried holo luncher and feels very laggy. Like going in and out of the App drawer for example.
Apex is perfectly smooth.
Hello,
Im using trebuchet right now, because I don't want to change my unstable cyanogen 9.
I replaced my stock adw from cm7 for go launcher ex, because it is less laggy and you can hide apps.
So my questions is what are you using and why are you using it?

ADW. I love all the themes for it.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Apex launcher of course! Its smooth and easy to use.
Stock LG Optimus launcher using stock Froyo.
Apex Launcher with a Blu Kuban twist. The only launcher and ROM worth running IMHO.
Nova Launcher. Very nice. I will probably get the paid version as soon as I have money to spare. End of the month here so I'm prioritizing food instead..
I like the app drawer and the fact that you can turn off all the animations etc. If it's something I hate it's 3d effects in the home screen and app drawer. Urgh.
It's the only one I've felt is actually better than HTC Sense 4.0 that is already on the device (One V). I would probably be more keen to switch the launcher if I had a Samsung phone.
With ICS I love using Apex. One of the most fluid launchers I've ever used, and it's pretty customizable.

Even with ICS my favourite launcher is still GO Launcher. In fact, I think the GO Dev team bring a large number of quality apps to Android, which is something a lot of Android apps unfortunately lack.
I keep switching between Apex & MiHome.

I personally LOVE Trebuchet Launcher, but it is a part of CyanogenMod. I have not found any others that I really like, so I am using CM10, because it is the BEST hands down.
Now, you MIGHT be able to find the apk and put it on the stock ICS, but that might defeat the whole purpose of Trebuchet, but just to get back on the subject at hand, and that is that apex launcher is EXACTLY like Trebuchet, and it is not too bad, and worth a look.
Oh and here is flashable zip for Trebuchet, not sure how well it will work on this phone without CM on it, but it might also be worth a look.

performance wise, Nova launcher is the best by far.. though i have used Apex a lot.. the transitions in Nova launcher seem much faster.. the full version lets you make folders in app drawer and use gestures too
Personally, I like Go Launcher. It has a screenshot option which is kind of handy since the one in CM10 doesn't crop them properly at the moment.
Go keeps me going! Best to suit ma requirements!
I've tried adw, nova and apex. Apex in my opinion is the smoothest. Nova would lag at times. I bought Apex pro yesterday and it has a lot of extra features. Basically it will come down to what you like but i would recommend Apex.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Apex or ADW for sure. Nova always had 'twitches' here n there while scrolling. ADW is the most customizable launcher I've ever used n just as smooth as apex. Mind you, gotta be on ICS and up for Apex and Nova. ADW works on all, but to use all features it has, you'll have to be on JB.

Nova and Apex, I use Apex because it can set vertical wallpaper and icons in dock can swipe both up and down
But another launcher maybe the launcher of the future is Next Launcher (GoEx), supppper smooth

Hi, I use halo launcher HD, it's a cool low memory launcher, it works very well in my Optimus 2x.
Have a try in this launcher..
Halo launcher is the safest and the best launcher i know.........
I used Apex, Nova, Trebuchet, Holo, Go Launcher, ADW and Bazooka Launcher.. If you prefer a stock aosp style launcher you can choose Apex or Nova (many custom roms are using Nova) but if u want more like theming then i prefer Go launcher or Bazooka.. Am using Apex now..

Holo launcher is not attractive at all.The only plus point is that it uses less memory where as apex is smooth and good looking but uses double of holo. Most of the devices with atlease 512mb ram would not prefer holo.
