Best launcher For GB

Disclaimer this is my honest opinion about this launcher.
Ok so the best launcher for the SGS4G is Go Launcher EX with a Jellybean skin ontop so it looks like jelly bean in some ways and also its very smooth because its go launcher ex. Also go launcher is very flexible.
I would think that this should be in themes and apps....
The problem with anything "GO" is the push adds.
My opinion is ADW premium....now that's perfection.
Yep, back when I was on GB, ADW Premium was my launcher of choice. And since I picked it up for 10 cents on one of the sales, the price was pretty close to right as well.
Go EX has push adds and is a RAM eater, the reason I always preferred it over ADW EX, is that it always remembered my apps order within a folder. ADW always mixed the apps order inside the folder...
Anyway, Apex launcher is a good reason to shift to ICS on my opinion.
ADW since the update is just as good on 4.xxx. GO products are just crap IMO. They started out good and then turned into crap.
GO used to be good but now it's become one big ugly bloat.
Try Holo, it's ICS style but can run on GB.
I consider GO product malware at this point in time, between unclear privacy policies, forcing users to sync with their servers, and push ads.
The only go product I still use is Go SMS 'cause nothing else in google play can compare to that app.
If your on GB I can understand that but ics and beyond has much better stock mms.apk's.

REally? I have not even 'cracked' the stock mms... [not on my Note either].
i use go sms for a few of the features but the less apps the better IMO...
I like the quick voice reply feature and some of the other message types that save plan. if they were better marketeers, they'd push that voice reply thing as a safety applet.... people need to stop texting in cars

Yep the stock app does everything I need it to. With 4.0 and many of the modded stock apps the support for emoji is native now. I dont messaging services like gtalk and fb messenger because I dont trust those type of third party apps anymore. TiB backs up my messages and call logs so those features are useless to me.
Best launcher for me was Zeam Launcher until ADW Launcher updated to what it is now. The paid version is THE S|-|¡+.

[Q] Cannot set App as default via Google voice command

Hello Everyone,
I have a question about setting an Play Store app as default apps through the Google voice search command.
First let me say I have the Verizon Galaxy S3 and I am currently not rooted. I am using APEX pro as my launcher and the clock app I prefer to use and am currently having issues setting as my default is Clock JB+ (a stock jelly bean clock app). I have the long hold menu option in my Apex launcher set to activate Google voice search. I don't use S voice because it tends to be very inaccurate.
My issue is, I would like to use Google voice search to set alarms and reminders. Google Voice search works fine but for some reason every time I restart me phone it will ask me again and again which clock app I would like to use as my default for this action. Stock or Jelly Bean. I have gone through the app manager and deleted all data, cache and defaults for both apps with no luck at all. Dose anyone have any suggestions? I apologize their is alot to take in with all my settings and different apps but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time
-AJ
Im just curious if its the fact that the Google voice command is internet based unlike s voice so each time the phone establishes a new connection it resets? or would it be something in the jelly bean clock software? im just very curious as to how to solve this issue

Hotword detection not working with alternative launchers

Hotword detection works from any screen with the default launcher. But when I switch to using Nova, Apex GO and a few other launchers, hotword detection stops working. I can open search by tapping on the search bar or google now, and it will respond to ”ok Google" and work correctly. It doesn't seem to matter if I have the search bars turned on or off, it will not respond to the hotword with alternative launchers.
I can switch back to the default launcher and it works fine.
Has anybody found a launcher that works with hotword detection, or can let me know if there is something that I may be doing wrong?
BTW, hotword detection (or lack of it) is not changed by using Bluetooth. Stock launcher works fine both ways, alternative launchers don't work unless you open search or now.

The reason it only works with the stock launcher is because google fused the launcher and search into one entity, while with other launchers you need to manually launch search and then speak. Haven't seen any other launcher that works like googles own launcher.
Hot word detection is not meant to work on other launchers.

Well, that bites. As a professional driver, I need to rely on completely hands free operation. I love the personalization and other benefits of using other launchers such as nova, but I guess I'll have to stick with the stock launcher for now.
Thanks for your answers.

Launcher working with google now?

Hi guys, I want to try an icon pack on my non-rooted, stock device, but I also want to use the 'OK Google' function.
Is there a launcher out there with Google Now enabled?
Thanks in advance.

Only the Google Experience Launcher has that feature that I know of.
i saw a similar feature on either another launcher, or launcher mod/add on. let me see if i can track that back down.....

feed for launchers other than Google's news feed

so yeah everyone who doesn't have a news feed generally goes for a launcher which has one.. as a samsung user, I did the same and went for ruthless launcher and got the Google feed but recently I got bored of Google feed so o searched heaven and earth and found that microsoft launcher has something similar but actually better than Google feed . when I used Microsoft's feed it felt amazing.. it was superbly customisable but after using Microsoft launcher for a few days, I felt dissatisfied with it.. it didn't had any bad feature or a feature that was missing but it never felt like ruthless launcher. so I switched back to ruthless launcher but again stuck to same old Google feed..
so does anyone knows any other feed or a way that I can integrate microsoft feed in ruthless launcher??
by the way the app's description in playstore says that it supports different feeds but I just don't know how to use another..
