Reasons for using v2.58 of Go Launcher Ex:
1) Many Go Launcher Ex fans are unhappy with the new v3.0.0 look of Go Launcher Ex.
2) Also v3.0.0. and later are laggy, even without live wallpaper, with LWP its even more laggy, as they say in the market comments.
3) Also Newer Go Launcher versions don't use ICS transitions of your ROM.
4) TRUE Wallpaper modes: Scrolling and Vertical mode, TRUE because they change the cropper in Gallery into Landscape Cropper or Portrait Cropper accordingly. [/SIZE]So No need of Wallpaper Wizardii.
So here you have Go Launcher Ex v2.58 in the attachments
Uses ICS transitions (if you have them on your ROM)

So I'm using ADWLauncher EX and at first I didn't use wallpaper scrolling. Now when I switch it back on, I can't make a wallpaper in the gallery which can be used as a scrolling wallpaper.
It doesn't work in the default launcher either. The gallery only allows me to make a portrait wallpaper, not the landscape wallpaper necessary for scrolling.
I've cleared the data for the gallery, but I still can't select a landscape wallpaper.
I have been trying both Virtuous Quattro and CM9 and one of the cool features I have noticed with the launchers on these platforms is that when my wallpaper auto changes it zooms the new paper in rather than just a normal change.
Does anyone know if this can be replicated in Reaper V2.1 using either ADW launcher EX or Go Launcher?
I'm using CM10 at my device, nightly 24/09, with Nemus Launcher.
Nightly 12/09 were working fine at wallpapers, but when I updated for 24/09 I no more could to use live wallpapers, there isn't option for such. I was using HD Ocean wallpaper, between others live wallpapers.
Nemus Launcher doesnt manage wallpapers, it leaves such a task charged to the OS. GO Launcher was heavy when I upgraded from Gingerbread for CM10 at my Motorola Defy+ (before 1GHz, now 1.2GHz). I dont tested whether GO Launcher is until heavy with last nightly, but I'm wanting a light launcher, however with folders organization at the drawer of apps and wallpaper management.
Any suggestion?
Nova launcher
hi
I've been using Nova Launcher (see market)
Haven't tried Apex yet.
There is premium version of Nova launcher which allows you to use gestures as well.
best of luck!
I read the description of Nova Launcher Prime, it says:
"Nova Launcher Prime unlocks the following features in Nova Launcher:
Drawer Groups:
Folders in App Drawer
Unlimited custom tabs
Organize apps into tabs and folders in the app drawer.
Gestures
....
Hide Apps
...
Dock Swipes
...
Therefore, only Nova Launcher Prime can satisfy the features I want, but I have pay for it. I will consider the changing for Nova Launcher.
Nightly ROM of 24/09 is drainning the battery. For the first time since bought my Defy+ the battery discharged fully, Im considering to regress for 12/09 ROM.
Thanks nserver!:good:

Nova > Apex..
Nova Launcher isn't able install live wallpapers over current ROM.
Neither Go Launcher is able. Live wallpaper option is unavailable on all launchers already tested with current ROM. So I tried set a live Go Wallpaper, then Go Launcher displayed a message saying my device doesn't support live wallpapers and what I should upgrade firmware.:crying:
Waiting for a new ROM by Quarks...

Is there any Launcher out there that got the feature to change homescreen based on orientation?
I currently have my device locked on Landscape because I feel it looks better and I can fit more stuff on it. But with the same number of columns and rows in Portrait makes everything look bad and squished, if I use less rows and columns in Portrait then most of the apps and widgets are hidden and it still looks bad.
So the best would be to have 2 different homescreens depending on the orientation, I currently use Apex but I couldn't find a feature like that. Sure I could just scroll manually to another screen but that's just annoying and it's easier to lock it to landscape in that case.
sslauncher the original (market link) can do that nicely. It doesn't have XxY layouts, everything is freely arangeable (with guidelines). There's also a free version, which should have the same functionality to try first.
Not exactly what I was looking for, I was looking for the standard launcher but with orientation based homescreens. But this one looks really nice, will try it out for a while thanks.
orientation homescreen
only one i have been able to find is on Cyanogenmod 10.x launcher application name is Trebuchet 1.0

I need to use CM for Trebuchet, my device is not supported so that's not possible.
Also on my old device which was supported I couldn't find that function either, Trebuchet can auto-rotate but you can't set default homescreen depending on rotation.
For example, in Apex Launcher I can set Landscape to have 10x10 grid and potrait to have 5x5, the problem with doing that is that all apps and widgets that are set on a grid that is beyond 5y or 5x will disappear in potrait and everything will look bad.
What I want is to use homescreen number 1 as default for landscape and homescreen number 2 as default for potrait, that way I can make them look good on their own orientation.
The launcher should switch to the correct homescreen when I change orientation. I have tried like 15 launcher and haven't seen this function yet.
Other than only using 1 screen with the default launcher or another launcher like Nova, is there any way to turn off wallpaper scrolling? Or is there an option I'm not seeing that lets me crop a wallpaper for portrait only?
With Nova, there is an option to disable wallpaper scrolling in the settings under desktop. Not sure about the stock launcher, Nova was the first thing I installed.
