You have to side load them and it will work (I verified ADW EX). It will look a little bit weird, but once you disable the dock, and increase the rows from stock 4 to like 10 vertical and horizontal its somewhat okay.
I just stuck with default launcher in the end though. I like the new apps drawer better haha

Adw ex is now avalable in app store but scrolling is very laggy and the icons are blurry. Laincher pro seams to be the only graphic accelerated alternative browser

There's a new version of adwex 1.3.0 optimize for honeycomb (hardware accelerated) i've been using it for the past hour and its way smother than the stock launcher...

ADW EX just got an update, added experimental honeycomb support

I tried VTL today but it was a bit laggy so I went back to the stock launcher for the time being.

seams like I was using an old adw disreguard my previous post. Wow this launcher is butter smooth. Only thing that makes it laggy is live wallpaper like usual. But wow graphic acceleration is where its at. Def worth the couple bucks in market. FYI set scrolling speed to 420. I tested all speeds and this ones the best

I've been using VTL for the past week. Overall its good. One thing I cant do is reboot my TF if VTL is set to default launcher. If I do then my TF will get stuck on the Asus welcome screen. Happen twice already only way to fix it is to wipe of the OS.

Been using the newer ADW Ex for a day or so. A couple FCs but he issued some updates that mostly fixed it.
The only thing I don't like is the bar being vertical only but it is not a big deal.

[APP][LAUNCHER] QQ Launcher

I've been using ADW.EX for a long while and have grown accustomed to their features and for the most part loved the experience. However, I just say QQ Launcher on AndroidSpin and this.. for lack of a better term... "really put some flavor on my sh*t"
Check it out!

Don't let the fact that it's chinese fool you. It looks and acts like a pretty solid product.
What say ye?

Looks nice.... I might check it out... Might. Lol.
Infuse, infused...running gingerbread

It's worth a try. You can always go back :-D

Been using Go launcher but this seems to be some good competition, will check out tonight

Looks good but no English? Ah that'll be hard to use lol. Let me know when they translate it though.

Its similar to the miui launcher

the included widgets are cool. the theme is awesome. it takes a lot from touch wiz 4 or the Sony arc launcher and adds a very nice miui like theme. folders in the drawer and transition animations are nice. and its themeable. not bad

Wow its sweet

I like it. Competes with Go Launcher.

Either I missed it or it doesn't have many options for making it act how I want. I couldn't find swiping options or anything.
If I missed it, please point me in the right direction so I can give it a fair shake...
thanks

Nice launcher, well Polish but missing a few key features that Go launcher offers. Facebook calendar Widgets also custom user icons. Will keep an eye on it tho.

Nice launcher. Just needs more themes (it's completely newborn)
Installed. Satisfied.
Thanks for the tip
in ROM Infused 2.0.3 from our great gtg465x

I agree.. it definately needs some more themes and options.. but its not bad for a new product

My Phone Color Problem. Sorry My Bad English. All İcons and Backgrounds Color Problem.

I believe they re-themed certain icons, but I'm not sure.

I really like the MIUI-ish design of the switch shortcuts, but I'm not a fan of the list style of the app drawer. Can you customize the drawer, or is it the list style only?

Wow, I though this launcher was bad, but its amazing! It lags a little bit on the app screen, but that's probably because I need to restart my phone...

Cyanogen Mod comes with ADW launcher, but I like this one better.
Is there any setting to get it as default launcher?

Once you install it and click the home button it should bring up a prompt to ask you which launcher you want to use, you can set is as default from there. or you can go into application settings and clear defaults on ADW

Install as normal apk. I renamed my twlauncher in /system/apps to prevent it from from loading on reboot. Rebooted (by pressing home+vol_down). I have added the tested version of apk.

Is it better compared to adw launcher?speed wise i mean to ask..

I test it. And I think this launcher is pretty good (speed and smooth).
But I prefere LauncherPro
Thx for sharing.

Not preferred ....
Ya its a good launcher..smooth and fast....but it drains the battery very fast.....so not for long battery needers......I prefer zeam launcher...or tw3

question for developer?
is possible port the DianXin ROM ?

Go locker

Anyone not familiar with it should check it out. Lots of new free themes that look pretty cool and spice up ya lock screen
From the Beast : Galaxy Note

I use Go Launcher, so I got Go Locker and it was real laggy to me . .I like the fact that it was fairly customizable but with the lag it was quicker just to use the regular swipe to unlock screen and then open an app. .
There are some cool themes and if it wasnt laggy it would be great. .

Go locker is a fake unlocker, you can bypass it with home button, at least it was a few months when I tried Go locker, maybe they fixed it now.
The best lockscreen is imo JKay AOSP Deluxe.

I didn't like the lag of go locker either. Waiting patiently for 4.0 as I really liked the stock lock screen on my galaxy nexus.

1. Go Locker isn't laggy!
2. For a month now, you can set it to not be bypassed by home button. Works on Galaxy S II and Note of course!

Hmm no lag for me either. I'm digging the Spiderman theme

i dont use it but this one looks really nice:

Gotta agree with the lag issue. It does have a lot of nice themes, but the lagginess pushed me away and back to the stock lockscreen.

I wonder why some people experience lag and some don't. Wierd. It is completely lag free for me

Yes,but you have to set Go Locker as your home launcher to bypass the Home button.....
It's not a big issue for me,Go Locker doesn't lag as far as I'm concerned,
I use Metro UI locker works just hunky dory.

I found go locker and even go launcher to have a kind of 'bloaty' feel to them. I think a lot of the skinning and theming options are tacky and intrusive, ruining a streamlined OS feel.
I've settled on zeam launcher and stock lockscreen.

Can you run go locker lock screen apps with pin set? I'd like to make calls and take pictures from from a lock screen with a pin. The iPhone can do this.

Apex launcher and wallpaper

So I installed apex because I think it's more stable then nova. I tried to set my custom wallpaper and in landscape mode no issues but in portrait mode I see the wallpaper above and all icons at the bottom with a black background. Is it normal? And can I solve this horrible situation?

It's been discussed in various threads in this section, do a little search for "wallpaper" in their names. I don't remember if it got fixed eventually, but it's a common problem with Apex and Nova on the Infinity.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29610762&postcount=1
Is that still the best way to do it? It's the only thing I've seen and that was back from July. Every other thread I found while searching mentions "use the search".
A lot of the time that's helpful, until there's so many people saying to do searches that nothing else really comes up.

Wallpaper problem irritated me beyond imagination, was on a quest for solution. The one you found is actually the only one - and even this one is not perfect as the live wallpaper slows down the apex launcher - at least it did for me.
You have two additional options: live with it and hope for the best in future releases, go back to stock launcher and live with a fact that you don't use Apex. I went with the first one
I actually don't even miss it anymore as i just don't use my tablet in portrait mode while not in apps....so, problem solved

Try Quickpic from Google play.
I` m using Nova and the "wallpaper bug"Is gone with it.
PS: Use the cropping tool from Quickpic and NOT the system one.

Okay, I've been using QuickPic forever and I'm currently running Nova Prime 1.3beta8, and the portrait wallpaper cropping issue still exists. Can you give more detailed instructions on how you're getting a different result than the rest of us?

Uups, I have installed Nova (but not set as standard), installed Quickpic, set a wallpaper and pressed HOME -> wallpaper fitted exactly. (in stock launcher)
So it doesn't work... sorry.
