You must move the holo launcher to System and change the permission to (-------) then put the stock launcher to system ----> apps and change the permission to rw-r--r-- you must make sure that the name of stock launcher is (home.apk) :thumbup:

[PORTED] [BETA] Samsung Galaxy S3 launcher now for ALL ICS ROMS

I successfully ported the launcher for all ICS ROMS. Unsure about gingerbread, someone could give it a try and see how that works. Copy to system/app folder or just install as a user app , it doesn't make a difference.
Something that PoorCollegeGuy pointed out to me is that PaWill started this, even though I didn't know about it so thanks to PaWill for starting this,
this is my work but PaWill started this whole idea.
TO ADD WIDGETS, COPY TO SYSTEM/APP, CHANGE PERMISSIONS TO RW/R/R, then install again as usual, then press home, and Widgets will work.
DO NOT CONVERT TO SYSTEM APP, MANUALLY COPY IT TO SYSTEM/APP
CLEAR DATA IN SETTINGS.
SOLUTION FOR CONSTANT FC, FOUND BY JASSI32
If after reboot it constant FC
1. Go to system/app and install it from system/app
2. Then delete apk from system/app
3. Reboot
WORKS 100%

Kinda works on Xperia S. However, the wallpaper keeps redrawing every time I hit back or home button, and I can't add widgets from the drawer.

Becuase it isn't CM9 (ICS), it's CM7 (GB) with hard work of Squadzone.
Dear Wow.......................
This is just fine, works very cool on my Xperia Pro with Android 4.0.4.
Only found one error while loading widgets "Not installed with permissions of binding widgets"
Please check the application launcher icon cannot be moved to centre.
Thank you……
Tried everything, I took it exactly from the galaxy s3, so I'm guessing that's a feature? Btw I don't have one so this was pretty hard.

For not installed with permissions of binding Widgets try installing as system. Or try fix permissions.

Everything seems to work on the TMobile GS2, except the widget error. Permissions are set, and the launcher won't open at all if changed to a system app.

To set permissions, use a file explorer like ES file explorer and go to where the app is located (if set as a system app it should be in system/app then open properties, change the file permissions.

Android 4.2 Launcher signed-[very speedy and smoother]

this is very nice working good on cm10
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Download the Android 4.2 Launcher apk file and transfer it to a convenient location on your phone.
2.If you are using a Nexus Device or running an AOSP /AOKP based stock Android ROM, you need to be rooted. Download Titanium Backup and uninstall your default Android 4.1 launcher. If you are using an OEM customized ROM, like a Touchwiz based or HTC Sense Based ROM, you can skip Step 2 and move on directly to Step 3.
3.Now using a File explorer like ES File Explorer or Astro, navigate to the location where you had transferred the APK file for the Android 4.2 launcher, in Step 1.
4.Install the Launcher apk, and enjoy the default launcher from the upcoming Android 4.2

Q. 3rd party launcher not installed??

I'm on cm10 beta 3 by bhargz. Whenever I copy a launcher (s3,xperia,xperia z) to system folder and set permission. It doesn't turn up for selection after reboot.
I installed nova launcher and it's working fine but not others.
Help?

[i9003] Galaxy SL is slow after deodex

Hi Friends,
I have recently rooted my mobile and deodexed, since then I am facing slow down in my mobile if i opened games, which has high graphics.
After quiting the apps/games, my home screen restarts.
Is there a workaround to fix this issue? Please guide me.
Thanks in advance

Yup, don't use a deodexed ROM :cyclops:
The only interest of deodexed ROM is for theming and moding.
If your usage is only a normal user one, use odexed ROM.
Thanks for replying dude.
I have applied theme to my phone and I like that as well .
But the home/menu screen restart is something making me to worry
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda app-developers app
Do you use a custom launcher like Nova Launcher or else? If so, you can try to move the launcher apk in /system/apps/ to make your launcher a system app, it *might* help
After deodex, i was using the default launcher (TW Launcher).
The problem resolved when i downloaded ADW launcher from play store
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda app-developers app
Friends,
Try the below, in order not to redraw your launcher after the heavy use of apps.
In a terminal:
$ su
# echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop
Then reboot your phone.
To undo these changes simply remove the entry from /data/local.prop.
Thanks,
Suresh

Download Zipsigner from market, sign app and you'll be able to install it.
If you want transparent UI just use TriFlat (or any other theme that already have transparent bars) to MOD it in your way...

As we already said...
If you cannot install app - download Zipsigner from market, sign theme (this app, when you download it) and you'll be able to install it like any other app.
