Hey guys just letting everyone know that the GO Dev Team has just released the beta for GO Launcher HD v1.0 -- a TABLET SPECIFIC version of their famous GO Launcher EX.
Check it out:
http://golauncher.goforandroid.com/2012/03/go-launcher-hd-v1-0-beta/
Fantastic. Exactly what I wanted the tablet version to be.
Issues:
6th folder created does not stay. The folder deletes and the icons are dumped to the all apps page.
Spelling mistake for the word "systme" When adding a widget. Should be "system".
Screen transition from portrait to landscape takes noticeably long time.
To much space between top of screen where google search is and first row of widgets only in portrait mode. Landscape is good.
Need ability to add more rows than 5. Even the custom option doesn't allow it.
I love it on my Epic and I am really liking this so far. Have not tried Apex but I have tried Nova on my phone and still found myself going back to Go.

I have no issue with the default launcher....
Awesome, I tried it yesterday and found no bugs...using 10 folders without any problem

Installed many different launchers to find that the default still the winner. About this one in my opinion need lots of work. (lag, wallpaper resizing issue, widget will not added unless you restart the launcher). Am not new to go launcher its installed and working perfectly on my Samsung galaxy Tab since a while with no issue....
Again its just my opinion with Go launcher HD.

Hence...... the `beta` tag. Still pushes beyond the other ICS specific launchers, IMO.

I'll have to try this out, but I've never liked Go Launcher over ADW or Launcher Pro for my phone, its always been slower and takes up more resources compared to those 2, but we'll see how it runs on the tablet
Edit - runs really nice on the tablet, thinking its going to be a keeper
It's very polished and good features so far. Once/if it has internal icon theming controls similar to ADW I will probably use it exclusively.
I noticed that sometimes when moving or resizing widgets the launcher gets stuck in edit mode.
Aside from that and a few other bugs, this will be my new default launcher once it is out of beta stage. The amount of features and the ease of adding icons, widgets, and folders is really great. I'm glad the decided to make a tablet version of their launcher.
brilliant launcher, haven't had a problem with it at all, landscape to portrait does take a while, haven't tried folders yet... the dock bar is something I've been looking forward to, looks good too.
For a first Beta this is running very smoothly. I assume in the near future they will add many more features and themes similar to Go Launcher EX. The Go Dev Team always have put out timely updates. One of my favorite features that I have only seen in Go Launcher is app drawer folders.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
A damn good start. I love the old Go Launcher but this new one is kind of nice. They need to fine tune the wallpaper application, also the window transitions are adequate but nowhere near what Nova launcher has done. I will say this, this is one of the nicest Betas I have used.
Just wanted to post that people should check back with the OP link. Version 1 Beta 2 is available.

People use custom launchers for the added features and customizability.

Thanks for this heads up. I happen to love Go Launcher on my phone so I'll give it a whirl. However all the auxiliary launchers are losing to stock ICS which is smooth as silk on my tablet. We shall see; it's playtime!

They may be but go launcher is perfect with the folders like iPhone. Its also very quick to load.

Yeah nothing beats ICS-Stock-Launcher in Terms of Speed and smoothness. I currently just use the normal Go Launcher Ex with a minimalistic Theme and I like it ( I use very fancy screen transitions so you cant really notice the lag )
Does this Beta already support themes? Guess I will just give it a try, my TF101 is charging atm >_>

GO Launcher is the most popular home app in Android Market. It allows users to customize home screen, change themes, use smooth transition animation as well as various widgets and screen locks. It brings you a fresh and extraordinary mobile operation experience.
=Features=
- Thousands of personalized themes
- Various widgets and screen locks (weather, switcher, calendar…)
- Extremely smooth transition animation
- Smooth flipping operation
- User-defined folder to easily categorize apps
Many options in preferences to help you customize you phone!
=Tips=

a) Search ‘go launcher theme’, ‘go widget’ or ‘go locker’ in Android Market.
b) Use GO Store via menu button in GO Launcher.
2. How to set transition animation?
Use ‘Effects settings’ via button in GO Launcher.
3. Icons are too small?
Use ‘Icon Size’ option in ‘Preferences->Visual settings->Icons’ to make icons bigger.
3. Long press the app icon to enter editing mode on home screen and app drawer.
4. Glide up to open menu and glide down to pull down notification.
5. The widgets in the screenshots belong to GO Widget, attainable from Android Market or GO Store.
=Important=
1. GO Launcher is a totally free app without any charge.
2. If you cannot set ‘GO Launcher’ as the default home app, download ‘Home Manager’ to fix it.

wow this launcher is getting better and better.

This has always been bugging me, but how does GoTeam actually make a living out of giving the app for free? Personal data sale?
Nice to see dev team developing
Go laucher is best for me, if scrolling would be a bit more smooth would be awesome.
I've said this elsewhere, but I'll take the opportunity to say it again here
I am still using v2.60 for one simple reason. Up to v2.60, when you exit an app you go straight back to the home screen. After 2.60 you go back to the app drawer. I prefer the old behaviour (and I'm not the only one who does) - why not make it an option in the settings, so the user can decide what they prefer?
I have a request, could you please make it an option to remove the home button on the app drawer?

Is this version or future versions going to be based on Android 4.0 source code? Because currently it lags a lot on leaked ICS roms. Not trying to be selfish, of course.

Whoa...someone that can actually hear my voice. Don't know how many times I have tried to reach out to Go to have this changed.
Moving apps from the app drawer to the home screen is horrible!!!
Change it so if you are in the app drawer and your tap and hold on a app you have two options when you slide it to the left or to the right. One being the home screen, the other being the all screens mode. Takes way too long to customize my home screens the way its set up right now.

Thats the only method I use. Others are too long and time consuming.
Can you please add an option to disable and hide the dock?
Also when you guys remake the app drawer, can you make it so we can drag an app from the drawer into a special area that will hide the app?
Absolutely love Go Launcher. It is the best out there.
However I would appreciate it if I were able to use my phone's built-in app transitions (opening an app from the homescreen and back) instead of the "zoom" ones Go Launcher forces on me. I hope you guys are considering adding this to a future version. Go and LauncherPro are the only launchers I know of that have this behavior and LauncherPro hasn't been updated in about a year.
Please consider letting us have this choice. You guys do great work and I'm thrilled to hear about 3.0!

DEFYing the Android planet with ICS
It's cool but not going to do it in near future.
Hey everyone, I'm back again with more ported apps.
This time it's from the all new Chinese ROM 'SmartisanOS' for the Galaxy S3. If you have a Galaxy S3, I'd recommend checking out the ROM itself rather than using these apps, as you'll get a better experience that way.
If you haven't heard of SmartisanOS, firstly you should know it's not an entirely new OS, it's more like a UI skin like Sense and Touchwiz. It's based off Android, but isn't a fork of it like AliyunOS or anything.The creators very heavily focused on user experience, in attempts to make the UI very attractive and easy to use. The UI is very, very skeuomorphic. All applications tested ran buttery smooth.
Note that this ROM is in pre-alpha (it was only just officially released to the public on the 15th) so it's got a few bugs, even on the phone it officially supports, the Galaxy S3. Additionally, not all applications have full English support, so certain parts of them will be in Chinese.
As always, if you'd like anything from the ROM to be uploaded, just ask and I'll see what I can do.
Here's a video review (in English) of SmartisanOS by Cursed4Eva TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aRUZwJXlHA
Smartisan Launcher:
The launcher is very, very similar in concept to the iOS homescreen. It's just a grid of apps that you can move around, and essentially you're limited to just that. There's not hardly any customization here, but then again that can be a good thing if you think about it. Unfortunately, lack of customization takes a pretty big hit - for example, you can't change the wallpaper. For some very odd reason, this launcher requires a loading screen whenever it boots up, similar to other 3D launchers like Next Launcher and TSF Shell (but this launcher isn't 3D).
Features -
- Up to four icons on the dock
- Custom transition effects for opening apps and general inteface
- Batch app movement support
- Unlimited homescreens
- Hide homescreen support
- Lock homescreen support (crashes for me, however)
- Gorgeous UI
- Drag-to-uninstall support

Clock
This is a truly gorgeous clock app. Note that this, along with the other apps, don't give widgets. This clock is filled to the brim with fancy animations, sound effects, and special features, like a world clock, alarm, stopwatch, and timer.
Features -
- World clocks (system time set as default; you can add more but the clocks are only available in Chinese)
- Alarm clock
- Stopwatch (with lap support)
- Timer (up to 60 minutes)
- Fancy animations for all sections of the app. For example, whenever you switch tabs the clocks will reanimate into position.
- Fancy sound effects for most sections of the app. For example, turning on the timer will make a ticking sound. The ticking sound stops when you leave the application, though (and the timer still continues), so it won't be annoying or anything.
- Gorgeous UI

Notes
This is a pretty basic Notes app but just like all the other SmartisanOS apps is really nice looking, but unfortunately (for me, anyway, this might not happen on your phone) the app didn't fit the screen. This app also has integrated sharing support.
Features -
- Swipe to delete support
- Search support
- Sharing support via SMS, email, text, and Sina Weibo
- Gorgeous UI

Calculator
This is a very simple calculator without support, unfortunately, for more advanced calculations like the stock Android calculator. It's based off old basic calculators, and even has that click-and-clack sound to boot whenever you tap the buttons!
Features -
- Sound effects whenever you click the buttons for a more realistic effect
- Gorgeous UI

Launcher wouldn't open on my Note2. Clocked worked well though. It is a great looking click with just enough animation. Unfortunately the snooze/dismiss screen is too simple for me. Both buttons right next each other. Could easily attempt to snooze and hit dismiss instead. Wish it was a gesture like sliding to dismiss. Oh well. Still pretty cool. Thanks, man

Yes, I had this problem with the little gear icon when in the zoomed-out view with all the icons. I had to click the gear just under where it was located. I presume this is either because:
1. The ROM itself is still in pre-alpha so the problem is for any phone, not just ones it wasn't intended for (meaning, then, that the Galaxy S3 has the same problem)
2. Wrong resolution and screen size is confusing the app.
Either way there isn't a easy fix to it, for now anyway.

No, sorry, I'm not a developer. It may be because you're not running the latest version of Android, as SmartisanOS is based on 4.2.

You should ask that on the Smartisan OS forums or if there's a thread for Smartisan OS for your device you could ask it there maybe. This thread isn't for help with bugs in the ROM, sorry.

Why don't you download from the Smartisan web site: http://www.smartisan.com/apps/launcher ? The launcher works perfectly under Slim7 on bacon, for example.
Decided to go into the 2019 year with a new launcher project. Now what im about to show you and talk about is subject to change. I wanted to show off what I have built so far so I can get real time feedback and release the project with a good reputation right off the bat, i have never done a preview before release so hoping it goes well.
Id like to introduce Symphlyx Launcher. Symphlyx is a launcher i built from the ground up with 3 main focuses. 1st focus was to bring core features from Sapphyx Launcher (The launcher im developing in parallel) to an Android Go like launcher experience, 2nd focus was to build an interface similar to the pixel experience so I built something inspired by Google Chromium Desktop, 3rd focus was to build a launcher that was simple, fast, battery friendly and spec friendly.
I feel like their are way to many pixel launchers releasing and the hype for a new launcher has pretty much died because we know what to expect. The good news is that their is something to look forward to. Its not a normal launcher experience as I want to point out and the goal isn't to maximize the amount of customization (As it is important to have control over certain elements, just don't wanna go hammy time on customization.)
The Homescreen is of 2 elements. A header widget slider and a gesture playground. The header has several static widgets to choose from (toggleable of course) and the ability to set your own on a custom slider. The homescreen is a gesture playground is powered by Android Library Sensey and by default the launcher consumes long press and double tap. Double tap opens the app drawer and long press opens dynamic settings menu.
The app drawer has by default 4 columns (min2, max7, increased on tablets) and supports icon packs, has a searchbar, fastscroll, popup menus and google on hand search and Assistant, also notification indicators.
Popup menu features
-App Info
-Share
-Google Play Link
-Uninstall
-ActionDash Info
-Notification Channel(Naugat 7.1 requirement)
-Shortcuts (Naugat 7.1 requirement)
The goal with the launcher settings is not to require any pauses or restarts of the launcher to change something. The goal is to make everything change as you make adjustments so its snappy and ready to go. No room to create a delay or lag.
Below are some screenshots and a youtube preview of the project in development. Id love to hear back on some feedback. The launcher will be free to download with no paywalls but closed source (as of now). The goal is to have the launcher optimized for Android Go as well which i believe will be a game changer.

It looks promising
