ads launcher? or maybe you mean ADW Launcher because this is the stock launcher for CyanogenMod.
have you tried Menu > More > Unlock Desktop

I'll try this out! Nice

So is this a add on theme for adw?

I want to know how to activate the action of the phone space in the dock
Looks cool and nice! However, when I tried it out on my milestone, the Phone icon is overlapping the "Phone" button on the dockbar, and the right button beside it is overlapped by a small "flipcloc-like" icon. I hope it gets fixed. Keep it up!
fixing the icon
go to market download Expresso UI icon pack
press and hold on desktop
select custom shortcut
select "pick your activity"
select phone
click on the icon to the left of where "pick your activity" is
select "Expresso UI etc"
next to the top "^" there are like 2 transparent icons on either side of it
select that and press ok
now on your desktop you'll have a blanked icon with (phone) under neath of it
Drag that down to the launcher bar that has the phone overlapping it
release
(now you have sense like bottom bar) do this again for the settings i just went to app's > settings...but if you want you can go to custom activity and have it pointed to a specific sub menu of your settings.
This is the closest to sense i've gotten on my NS4G, but hoping theres a flashible zip for those of us who have an ADW-EX license!!
But thanks for the apk man!!!

Sense Setting > UI Setting > Tint Ab (Select it) > Ab scale factor (set 1)
And drop any app (which should be launched) from app drawer to the right button.

@developer
can we have like ab scale factor set to zero it would be cool. And messaging app in right button by default.
Edit: I forgot to read the date when this was posted damn xda app.

Works just great.....thanks for this great share!!!!
I just picked this up today so if there is anything new anyone else has found please tell me lol...but as for the old icons still being there a better fix i found is to find a Transparent .gif and create a custom shortcut via longpress on home screen and select what you want it to do and change the icon to your .gif

LP Sense UI

Something weird just happened when I installed CM - it installed all my apps for me

Hi
Just flashed into CM.
I don't know how, but it auto downloaded all my apps for me!!!
This has never happen to me before (even thought I have flashed like 10 roms - with vibrant and MIUI).
HOW DID IT DO THAT????
Also, since now I have 3 launchers, I wanted to ask which is the "stock" launcher that CM comes with, and whether I should use it or is it just based on what I like

that probably happened cuz you enabled Google's auto sync which reloads all your apps contacts and so forth.
Default launcher for cm7 is adw.launcher personally I like go launcher better.

Its MiLocker
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
iHate iPhone too but this launcher its pretty awesome I use it by default, thanks bro.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
The lock screen is called MiLocker. And while I-launcher is paid, it is only 2 dollars. And thank you thcnme956, I like it when people share my videos. I also don't like apple, but I do have to say I love the beautiful UI they have. I was getting kinda board changing LP and ADW and I like to see a change on my phone so yeah. And while DX-home is free, it doesn't have the whole IOS look. Try Espiar Launcher, it is free, but you won't be able to do some of the things on iLuancher.
The latest version force closes every time I try the new change icon/app name feature. iLauncher now is far behind Espier Launcher in terms of stability and usability. I did pay for iLauncher to support the developer but the app is actually getting worse with every update.
Just install a miui rom ;-)
MIUI doesn't look like iOS to me and is available for selected phones only.
I'm on MIUI and espier launcher

I'm not a big fan of iOS, just testing exotic launchers
iLauncher got updated and the icon/text edit fc bug is fixed. Now I see another "small" bug - from time to time the phone freezes and none of the keys can bring the home screen. Reboot is the only cure. This dev is hopeless. Seems like he is trying to do something but he doesn't know exactly how. Every update has a MAJOR issue that makes the entire app unusable.
And in the menu there is "Restore hidden apps" option, but no "Hide apps" option. Interesting.
Testing continues... just for fun. :laugh:
You can also try espier launcher

Multiple Home Screens

How can i set the center screen as default when i press the home button?
Sent from my XT897 using xda premium
You can't with the default launcher unfortunately (unless someone 'fixes' that in a custom ROM down the road). But you can get a 3rd party launcher and do it.
Such as? I hate adw and am not sure about go launcher ex performance on this device, wish i could use go launchers tablet version as it is set up in a very convenient way as i always use this device sideways
Sent from my XT897 using xda premium
I think the two I hear the most about with 4.0+ are Nova and Apex.
+1 on Nova.
I used that on my G2 and my N7. Havent tried with my new PQ since I'm not sure if the fancy icon swipe feature will still work.
Hmmm nova... my old photon had nova on it with cone name android rom.

[Q] Launcher question

I'm on the lookout for a new launcher, maybe.
I'd really like one that shows notification badges (not sure if Xperia does) for all apps (especially K9). Apex only shows notifications for Gmail accounts, and even then I can't seem to get them working recently.
I know that the Tesla Unread plugin shows the notifications on Widget Locker, but does it also work with Nova?
I'm not interested in going back to Go Launcher at all, and I'm not looking at the launchers that are $15.
The ability to customize icons would be nice, but won't affect my decision if something better is out there.
Help me out. I've not used any launchers except Go and Apex for quite some time, so I'm not even sure what's out there and good.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I'm on Nova using Tesla unread notification. I can confirm that it works on Gmail, Samsung emails, messenger, gTalk & goSMS.
I used goLauncher before but it lagged on Embryo 6.1 rom. Was lucky to purchase Nova during Play Store 25ยข sale.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I missed that sale unfortunately.
I'm going back and forth between Nova Prime and Holo HD, unless someone else has another question.

A few hours later I notice...
That should say "suggestion", not question...
Now then, if I'm choosing between Holo or Nova, is there a way in either to check for beta versions?

Try the new miui v5 launcher. Super smooth, pretty ui, different from other launchers.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
It is different, but not exactly what I'm looking for. To me, MIUI looks more iPhone-ish than I really want.

Just put an folder for all your apps. Fixes that problem.

Tesla unread will not work with free Nova.

I know that. If I choose Nova (over Holo HD or others) I will be purchasing Nova Prime.

My vote is for nova. Great customization options, you have the option of beta version or stable, and yes, k9 mail is available for the count badges.
Pretty sure that sealed the deal for me, thanks!
One off-topic question, though...
What theme are you using in those screenshots? I like it a lot.
Subzero... You can find it here on xda

I confirm Tesla unread notification with Nova (prime) works perfectly with K-9.
Have fun and enjoy.
I use the Xperia Z Launcher, and I love it. It is pretty amazing, except that when at the home screen, pressing the menu button doesn't let you go to settings. You have to find it in your apps.
That is one little annoyance, but other than that it is a great and customizable launcher.
