Hey all, who all is using Launcher 7 and what's your thoughts about it? I have used it before on my Atrix and now I'm using it on my Note and love it. Been finding cool tile images and such to make it awesome. I know it may not be "the perfect launcher", but it runs fairly good.
I am running Launcher 7 on Stunner .19.

I used it a lot back on my SGSII and Captivate, but ever since switching over to ICS (I love the stock launcher) I've been using Apex. I tried Launcher 7 and it was just.. buggy. More than usual. I never had problems back on Gingerbead.

Interesting. What kind of bugs were you experiencing? Don't get me wrong, I love Apex! I haven't had very many problems at all with Launcher 7 so far.
go?
i love go launcher. it was great on S2 but on the note sometimes slow
the problem is that its all set with all the settings and folder i use and its comfortable so that's why i don't go back to the stock one

+1 for running Launcher 7 on Galaxy Note
I don't like so much the look of the Launcher 7, I prefer 360 launcher but with many widgets it is become really slow and I try now Hi launcher, new ergonomy but for note I cannot like 360 launcher have a 7x6 for widgets
I want a fusion between some launcher to make the perfect one !!!
I never liked any launchers before as they would eat away unnecessary RAM and will be laggy. But few days back I tried the Launcher7 and I was impressed. I love it and use it now on my note - love the way I can configure the tiles.
Is there any launcher 7 developing thread?
sent from x10mp
I got the donate version for my old nexus s but don't like how big the tiles look on my note. I emailed the developer asking him about possibly adding a 3rd column so all that space is used efficiently (plus it would look really good on the note) but sadly... i seem to have been ignored. Love Launcher 7 on a 4 inch screen but not on a screen as big as our note, the tiles just look BIG
I love launcher 7 and the whole wp7 look. Ive pretty much replaced standard apps with wp7 equivalents as well as the status bar and how i get notifications. These are my tiles

once you get to know all the tricks its a beauty, and its guarenteed the fastest way to launch apps-everything at your fingertips

I just simply add a tile that takes me directly to my favourite launcher (such as apex or nova)
It could not be simpler and you get the best of both worlds

hmm.....
i would say launcher pro for sure.
launcher pro plus the best.
Launcher Pro.
From what I've seen in UberMusic it makes me excited even more about the new version of Launcher Pro.
I like the stock 2.3.3 arc launcher most
For me GoLauncher EX is the best at the moment
I like launcher pro the best art the moment as it is very quick and smooth and you can hide apps which is great
RDS
thanks for the answears
@Robdunc
what is hide apps?
does it give´s an app who active a GAME_Mode ? for more performenc ?
It really does depend on what you really want from your lancher.
The last couple of days i have tried a few launchers to find the right one for me.
Currently i am using Zeam Launcher and really like it.
I like Zeam launcher alot but wish its dock had notification for sms n gmail. Also Go launcher is nice too with all the effects it has
Go is really the best one if you ask me, and it has a lot of support too.

zeam i have tested , but i think Launcher pro is better
For me Go Launcher Ex

I see go launcher has a tablet version but I can't install it. Is there any good tablet launchers that do work on Note?
From the Beast : Galaxy Note
Install Imilka's ICS rom then change your dpi to 213 and you'll have tablet mode as standard.
Other option is VTL Launcher https://market.android.com/details?id=com.vtlab.launcher - Sassibob reviews it a few months ago

SPB Mobile Shell has a "tablet" mode which works well on the Note. I have been using it since I got the Note in November. It is relatively expensive, but for me it provides what I want and therefore is good value for money. It also has some good widgets... I attach a screen capture of the Weather widget.

Nova & apex are pure ICS and both support landscape..
Adw drops to tablet mode but only at 160 (I think)
I've managed to install Go Launcher HD but it gives me a message that I should be using Go Launcher for phones (option to either cancel or go to market to download phone version). If I could only get rid of this pop-up message... I love Go Launcher widgets but the phone version lags in tablet mode...
Hi,
after I've upgraded to 4.1.1; I've seen that gt2 has lost the tablet UI that It has on previous ICS version 4.0.4.; and It looks like a definitive step.
For me it's a downgrade of the tablet.:crying:
There is some way to change the UI to tablet again without changing to ICS previous room?
Regards.

Well, OEMs can do 'old' tablet UI if they want. But Samsung has decided to just go ahead and keep that aspect even while replacing other things with Touchwiz.
I find it stubborn of them. Google created their tablet UI and merged HoneyComb and Gingerbread into ICS and further but they are not capitalising on their innovation. Phone mode on 7" tablet is still fine but having it on Nexus 10 is just ugly and not ergonomic.
yeah, especially when trying to tap home on Landscape...
Good side on the new UI:
well, actually, none. most shortcuts from 4.0.4 in status and shortcut bar were removed.
-Except for the halo effect circle when you drag.
Bad side:
-Annoying to click from top then to bottom
-Trying to make it landscape, the feel is kinda annoying, like when you tap home on Landscape.
yeah and the worst there is no nicely working TabUI for DMA2 (4.1.2) out there...
How come my nexus 5 shows new tabs in the card style, but my tab 7.7 has a tab switcher which looks the same as desktop chrome? Both browsers are the same version!

The slight UI differences is mainly because one is a tablet and one is a phone.

You're welcome and I doubt Google will officially have that feature for a phone. I could be wrong though.
Edit: Go to the Playstore and type in "Chrome". Click on the one that says "Chrome Beta". From the pictures, it appears to be the one with the tab feature.

Thanks, I downloaded the beta, it's the same as standard chrome in terms of the tab switcher.
Just to be clear, I want to use the 'card style' tab switcher on my tablet, rather than the tradition 'desktop style' tab switcher it currently uses.
My nexus 5 uses the card style, I want my tab 7.7 to use the card style too.
Hi guys,
I'm thinking about changing my mate 7 to nexus 6 64g.b, do you think its a good choice? And which one is better? I want to handle lolipop device, and I found that mate7 is a little bit laggy comparing to other devices I had before like htc one m8 and the note 3... and is there any phablet that you advice me to buy?
depends on what's more important to you.
To me, 4000mah battery + slim design/bezel + cheap price >>> nexus 6.
I'm not a heavy gamer so for my day to day stuff, i the kirin 925 is just perfect and ive experienced no lag whatsoever. Plus, lollipop is rolling out in the new couple of months so I cant complain.
the question is what is your budget and what you need from your phone. If budget is not a problem for you go for the besy phones out there. The ham7 is for a niche of people who knows what its not the best phone but embraces the best quality of it. The screen, thinness and slim design, battery and scanner to name a very few. But if you want more processing power, custom roms, more tweaking and more dev support the ham7 is not for you bro.
I really recomend mate 7 nexuses are all crap ... very poor batt. weird , especially nexus 6 ..
get M7 ...
The poor battery life on the nexus is no excuse for stock android, it's just plain embarrassing. I'm hard core android, but if the device has no stamina, no fun. Btw the ham 7 does have performance mode too, plus sd card support.

first, Thank you for replying
And actually I'm have mate 7, and as I told you I'm bored of sticking on stock rom, I need more mods and tweaks. you may find this silly, but the white color of the notification panel is really annoying me!
Is there any cons except the battery? Do I have any options other than the Nexus 6?
Mate 7 is better, I've had many devices before the mate 7 such as note 4 and the mate 7 is more snapier I don't find it lag at all and I play games such as fifa15 and real racing 3 ect and it performs perfectly I don't have any complaints apart from speaker could be better and earphone output could be louder that is all!

Thanks OP Here's what my rundown has been - cause I prefer at least 6 inch devices - preferably powerful
Crossing a certain age number has done a number on my near vision - and hence at least 6 inches keeps me in the game.
1- Nexus 6 Battery life - Plenty of ROMS if you want to play - but remember you're always fixing the device - i.e. updating, programs troubleshooting - and never have a stable enough device IMHO - now if your life and time allows AMEN - but mine has not anymore.
2- T-MO Note 4 - On Cyanogenmod great device - great battery life - smaller size - the CM has bugs, poor battery life - no finger print scanner support. So I sold the device.
3- I have looked at the REDMI Note - Not too sure that's a good enough device.
4- Sony Z ultra - or Xperia Z Ultra (first is GPE, 2nd is Not) - If you care for the device - ditch GPE - there's more work on Sony Xperia Z Ultra - magnificient device - and has CM12 support
5- WIndows Lumia 1520 I have not held better hardware in my hand - ditched after 1 day - very poor app market. WInodws will never catch up - PERIOD.
6- Asus Zenfone 2 - 64 GB 4 GB - top of the line - does not go 8 hours on my usage ( I run a ton of back ground apps ) - the hardware was OK - but that's that - it was remarkably fast sold it immediately - Cannot live with that bloody battery life anymore.
I am from Android 2.1 onwards - and also CM 7 onwards - so I have been on this bandwagon long enough - I am recently questioning the worth of Stock Cyanogenmod - other than Hard Core Enthusiasts - cause the devices we're now running - even HAM 2 - has powerful enough hardware to get the job done - So while we do not get better battery life or better features even at the Cyanogenmod - We do get bugs - unlimited updates - one breaking what the other fixed - and the phone's like an old car that I spend more time under than over. So for my time and dime - I am spending less and less time on the development front.
Currenty Running HAM 2 - there's never been a problem the stock device has not solved - cannot beat the battery life, no it's not the latest or the greatest - but gets the job more than done with minimal disappointments Sorry long answer - thanx for reading if you made it this far Tell us what if you find anything else.

Exactly Mate 7 is snappiest phone I ever had .. all prev. phones are laggy ..
I am testing LG G3 and is sooo laggy
Okay then! I think I will wait until HTC release a big screen mobile phone , cause after a lot of testings, I found that they are the have the strongest build and the best interface.

HTC would've gotten my money had they brought a new 6" One Max alongside the new One M9. But apparently they think there is no market for devices larger than 5.5" ... idiots.
