Trying to make a hub style theme looking for a app that will let me create a button to jump to a screen like screen 1-5 instead of swiping.
That function is usually built into the launcher (though probably not on the stock launcher). If you have Nova, Apex, ADW etc, then try using the launcher shortcuts...

Anyone who's using Launcherpro or adw launcher as their primary launcher - can you please share the number of rows and number of columns you have set in your settings? Instead of experimenting myself, I'd rather use tried and tested rows/columns
P.s. I'd love if adw and launcherpro get ported to honeycomb. Default launcher's inability to resize widgets is a deal breaker for me

Try this for an ADW comparable Launcher.

Yup, same issue with launcherpro gmail widget
The Gmail widget doesn't work in anything above 2.2, unfortunately. I checked the LP forum, and it seems Fede doesn't have Gingerbread or HC to test against, so that won't get fixed anytime soon. Luckily, there is a nice, functional Gmail widget included in HC. It doesn't match the other LP widgets, but I've gotten used to it.

Not 100% true. I've been using LP with miui and cm7 on my inspire and the Gmail widget works fine. Both are 2.3
Hmm you're right, I just tried it on my Evo running 2.3, and now it works Didn't work with the last 2.3 ROMs I tried on my Evo and my old gTab, but obviously something has been poked at since then. Disregard!
To fix launcher pro gmail, remove widget, backup, uninstall, reinstall, and restore. That fixed it for me.
That didn't work for me Still stuck at "loading."

When i tried ADW EX on my Transformer it was good, but i couldn't find the option to get rid of the ADW Logo in the top left of the home screen, which got on my nerves, any tips to get rid of it ?
I've just installed this adw launcher and its great. But what's that lock desktop option on the top for I press it and says locked but nothing changes I can still move the desktop? Any help appreciated
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
if adw ex works like adw launcher, then locking the desktop means that you cannot edit your desktop : if you press long on an app or a widget, it cannot be moved/resized.
It is kind of like locking the taskbar on windows.

Hey all,
I have always been a fan of other home launchers like launcher pro and go launcher.
What i have noticed though is that they are not "tabled optimized".
With that i mean that you still have the dock like you have on your phone and the icons and widgets are much smaller.
Is there a way to get one of them working the same way as the default launcher?
I like the sizes and i don't need the dock, only thing i do want is the extra options which the alternative launchers provide and i do believe they are smoother than the default launcher.
Thanks!
Try ADWLauncher EX. It's tablet optimized, has a ton of options and the launcher bar can be hidden or not used if you want.

i often get that when i wake my TF that it laggs al little or needs to reload all the widgets and icons.
I want to see if this is due to the default launcher by using a different launcher.
But all the other launchers have smaller icons, have the dock, have other widget sizes, and the app list is ugly!
so far i tried LP, ADW, GO.
None have the same sizes as the default one, so i was wondering if this can be adjusted with some simple settings..
As far as I know you can't adgust the size of the icons on the dock. I also wanted to do this but was unable to. As for resizing all other icons, go into the ADWLauncher EX settings > Icons > New Icons Settings > Icon Size and you will be given a slider to adjust the icon sizes.
Most widgets can be resized using ADWLauncher EX. There are some that will not resize despite what you do.

Not the answer i was hoping for
so i guess i will have to wait until one of them makes a tablet version the wait i want it
or seem to find out why my launcher lags or needs to reload everything.
Maybe its prime.
I use desktop visualizer app to resize my icons. You can download PNG files from Google or Bing to create custom icons as well. Works well with adw ex. You can have your icon take up the whole screen if you really want to.

ADW EX has The ability to use larger icons. Its in asd settings/ui/icons. Then just check the box for the density hack. Makes the icons the same size as the asus launcher. ADW is what I use and it is a huge improvement over the stock launcher IMHO. For those looking to hide the dock and expand the desktop area it does that to. You just need to select that in the main dock settings, then in the new hidden dock settings disable that to and presto no more dock.

I personally like the hidden dock. I just swipe down and it goes away, swipe down again and it comes right back. Kind of like touchwiz mini apps.

With Folder Organizer app, you won't ever need to go to app list. Just add the container labels to the Home screen or notification area. App Organizer is an alternative from the same developer.

i tried it out its not that great. It lags realy badly and also costs 15$
Having purchased SPB shell 3d for my phone, I've tried it on my Asus as well. Performance is OK but I don't like that you can see parts of the adjacent screens. Not running it right now on either phone or tablet.
After it's last update, I think ADW blows everything else out of the water. It's really nice.

I don't have any lag issues with ADW EX on my Transformer. It makes it as smooth as (if not smoother) than iOS... I recently showed and iPad 2 owner my Transformer and he absolutley loved it - couldn't believe how smooth everything was...

I got my Transformer Infinity last week, and since then I am looking for the "Favorites Tray" (the starter bar to launch the most important Apps (which should be displayed on each of the scrollable home screens). I thought, that this is a standard Element of Android 4.x. Could somebody explain me, how to display this very helpful tool?

I don't think that the stock launcher has that. You can download a launcher (I use nova launcher), and many of them will have a dock like you're looking for.

You either need a launcher that supports custom icons (I.e Nova Launcher, ADW Launcher etc.) or an app called Desktop Visualizer.
