I just bought the captivate and I am using adw launcher and i was just trying to figure out how to prevent touchwiz from starting up. I downloaded startup audit but i don't see it in there. Any thoughts?? Thanks
Touchwiz launcher shouldn't be starting if you have ADW set as the default launcher.

Thanks, I guess i just assumed that it was starting cause when i touch the app button in adw the apps screen looks like the touchwiz.

ADW has an option to make the app drawer look like touchwiz. That's probably what you're seeing. You can change the look if you want in ADW's settings.
I miss landscape from launcherpro but I don't want to switch from default home screen as it is just too good on ics.
I'm sure there is a landscape mode hidden somewhere in order to support devices like the Droid 4. Can this be forced somehow with root?
You can use Nova launcher for that. Nova launcher is the default ics launcher with more options like landscape.

Thanks. Nova Launcher looks exactly like what I'm searching for. Installed it and it works perfectly while keeping the vanilla Android look!

Yep, and nova launcher does this. All other launchers have landscape too but they don't have the original ics launcher look. That's why nova is perfect.

Trebuchet is CM's official ICS launcher. I looks, feels, and responds exactly the same as stock launcher, because it's a modded stock launcher. It has a ton more features, one of which is auto-rotation.

IMO, if people can't give a well-informed response, they should just ignore the post.

If your referring to me I'm using stock launcher, even if I wanted to use trebuchet I couldn't as I'm not rooted.
I use rotation locker to do it

OK I see. Since I'm running unrooted stock rom I guess there is no chance to install it separately from cm...I'd root my Nexus S for it but I'm not interested in CM mod...

Oh that sounds interesting as I'm really only interested in landscape view. I don't need any other option, and I'm afraid that other launchers like nova will eventually be loaded with too much stuff I don't need. I'll check rotation locker out. Thanks for the hint!
you don't need to be rooted to use a 3rd party launcher. if you can use any other launcher, why wouldn't you be able to use this.
...and that comment wasn't directed at any one user...it was directed at all users who claimed there was no ics-like launcher with rotation, sine trebuchet has been out for over a month!!!

Trebuchet requires it to be installed to system so you need root or a unlocked bootloader to place it in /system/app

one update on these orientation locker apps. I tried both the free one and another paid app. In both cases the auto setting wouldn't stick. So it would support automatic screen orientation with landscape but only for a limited time. After some minutes it wouldn't work anymore. So this is didn't really help. I swichted back to nova launcher for the time being.

Hey guys,
I'm currently using the Google Now Launcher, I really used to love the big & clear icons.
Lately I gave Nova Launcher a try and I really like it - you can add more icons to your homescreen,
the icons are smaller and customizable.
I think I'll switch to Nova.
What's your launcher of choice?
Nova no doubt it.

haha, why no doubt? google now launcher is pretty good. very stable as well.
don't you think?
Nova is much more customizable and it allows you to disable animations. It feels faster than Google Launcher, but Google Launcher falls in with a close second place to me.
I run 100% stock these days, don't even unlock the bootloader. Android in it's current state doesn't need anything else IMO
Huawei home ( no apk drawer ) - fast rock solid.
Apus launcher is replacement is fine too.
Try inspire i started using it with nexus 5 kii kat. It still keeps some of the originality the google launcher has including the google now page !!!
Omni launcher
Nova ftw!
Stock.

Nova launcher for me. Swipe gestures are something I've gotten too used to now to go back to GEL.

Google Now Launcher with XGELS.
The developer of XGELS is doing a really great job at implementing popular features from other launchers such as Nova.
Looking forward to seeing what future updates bring!

I use Apex Launcher with Ubuntu Apex Theme which I like, only one thing that annoys me ... it's the EMUI back and home button reverts back to the EMUI launcher. How can I change that?

Go to Settings>Manage Apps>Default Apps Settings>Launcher>Change it to your launcher.
I did that but it keeps reverting back to emui launcher.
