from XDA for Android

Made my home button unresponsive. What about you?
skinny jeans piss me off

that does look pretty cool. i like elaborate lock screens that can show off what the devices can do. single swipe things are kinda boring looking

This is TIGHT!

WP7 For HTC EVO... Well kind of: Launcher 7

Hello all,
I have searched the forums for the EVO 4G and found nothing on this so I thought I'd share.
I recently came across a wonderful home screen replacement in the android market. I was looking for a way to get a simple UI for my phone that didn't use many resources. I began on XDA and then branched out from here. A couple Google searches later, I found an app in the Android Market that replaces your home screen with Windows Phone 7's Metro UI. This UI is simple, easy to use, fast, and above all it works 100% of the time for me. I wanted to share it with you guys because I know there are quite a few people interested in a WP7 port to the EVO. This application is probably as close as we will get for a while and it comes really close to mimicking the UI of WP7 perfectly. You can set custom backgrounds, add any application or non-HTC widget as a tile on the Home Screen, adjust the animations for more eye candy or more performance (although full eye candy works just as fast for me), and many more.
I am going to try and build a ROM with this Homescreen replacing HTC sense to free up both internal and RAM memory. If I can accomplish this using the basic ROM kitchen, I will post another thread about this in the development thread and provide a download.
I have the link to the Android Market page below but if you want to install it straight from your phone, just search for Launcher 7 in the android market. There is a free and a paid version. I have the free, but I am going to buy the paid version very soon. If I make a ROM, it will include the free version for obvious reasons.
Links To Android Market pages:
Free version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikuwarez.launcher3&hl=en
Paid Version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikusoft.launcher7&hl=en
Disclaimer: I did not make this application, nor do I claim any rights to it. All credit goes to the developer,Timo Kujala, for their awesome work on this application. I am not responsible if this messes up your phone (it most likely will not) in any way. I am also not responsible if you get hit by a bus while playing with your new layout lol.
I hope you guys enjoy this awesome little app as much as me and give feedback on whether or not you would like to see a ROM with this as the main launcher.

Nice find!

Seriously? ...
XDA Search = WP7 Project

This is old news.
I highly recommend the OP visit this development team's website and ask permission before using any of their work in a ROM.

Thanks for the post but that's a different app... It looks cool too but I'm working with Launcher 7 specifically as far as asking permission from the developer. I am not claiming to be on the cutting edge with this. Launcher 7 itself has been around quite a while. I like the idea of posting other WP7 launchers though so if you have them go on and post them.

Anyone that would be willing to try the ROM if I built it? I don't want to spend the time if no one wants it.

I'm actually very surprised that there isn't a WP7 Clone ROM out already. I would have thought that if this developer was spending so much time on these various apps... that they would naturally compile them into a ROM.
I would say that OMGB or Salvagemod would be an excellent base for AOSP... or a deodexed stock ROM with minimal bloat or SalvageSense for Sense.
You would simply replace these WP7 apps with those that already reside in the base image and theme to match.
I'm sure I'd play around with it, but could never use it for a daily.
All in all... If I wanted a WP7 look; I'd sell my Evo & buy a WP7 phone.

Hell yeah, I'd try it. I'm playing with WP7Lock and Launcher7 right now.
To other poster, the devs haven't created a rom, because they wanna create something that'll work on all devices, is my understanding.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

Alright cool. I'm starting work on it now. It should be finished by Sunday I would say going by how much free time I will have. I have Ubuntu now and I am figuring out how to work the kitchen. The ROM will originally be just stock rooted Sense (I have yet to determine which dev team's ROM to go with) with the launcher baked in, then the second release, if I have enough interest, will be an AOSP ROM with everything stripped except apps people request and will have Launcher7 as the home screen and the WP7 lock screen. Keep up the good feedback guys.

So, you're thinking first release would be stock sense with launcher7 baked in as the default/only launcher?
I gotta say, I don't quite see the point. I mean, how is that different than than simply setting launcher7 as default launcher? Not trying to come across rude, or anything. Just saying I don't quite see the point, or maybe I misunderstood your intention.?
Very interested in seeing this, though. And yeah, using aosp for this project is a great idea IMHO

Here is a link to the site. I've registered for a trial as well. The registration apk has access to the following: USB storage contents, network communication and phone status/ID.
TSF apparently has to modify the shell to work on your Note before sending you a Beta to test. After it is installed they will continue to work on your shell, modify it based on its performance and send updates accordingly. You will be monitored so if you have any qualms about giving these developers access to your system this is not for you.
http://www.tsfui.com/shell/index.html

Any news with that launcher, is it becoming available anytime soon?

Anyone can share the testing apk for us to taste?

Looks Pretty Cool: ) Lookin forwart to a release...
hah hate to wait for everything : (

Most ugly icons i seen. Just like miui. Will probebly taka a lot of battery and memory. And you loose performance.

That looks horrible IMO. Icon design is horrible, the general UI looks terrible, and too much is going on there.
(This is my opinion. Not yours)

makes sense it's made by asians, it's ricey as hell.

Just WOW about the functionalities. Can't wait to test this out when it comes publicly available. Some big mobile players might "copy" some of these functions.

Action Launcher?

Has anyone heard about any updates for the release of Action Launcher. Real wager to try it out

I'm really looking forward to this. I'd love any launcher that gives a 1 per line alphabetical launcher

His Twitter has been pretty quiet about anything development related and he scratched his tweet lanes app so I wouldn't get too excited.. :/

You should try SSLauncher. It allows you to create something it calls application groups that are in list form. You can have all your apps in that list or just categories, like games or office or photo apps.
It's also one of the most customizable launchers on the market. You can even have a different wallpaper on each screen!

I purchased it five minutes ago. I'm a little disappointed. I love the concept of it, but it's a little too minimalistic at the moment. There are only a few settings, and there's no real option to customize it. I guess the dev will update it a bit in the near future so it's all good, but i expected much more. Also, no lite version? Come on...

Looks good - will probably wait till it's a little bit more feature rich.

Hi mate looks awesome but do you have a test version for how it looks? Or only the payed one?

I agree. I love trying different launches and have purchased several of them. However, all of them had a free version for me to try first.

I went ahead and purchased it. Definitely support the development to get it out of beta and add more features. I am pleased with it.

Played with it for about 30 mins and got super bored. Same old stuff thats in all the other launchers. SSLauncher already has the whole app wallpaper.

Apus launcher

Hi everyone. So there's this new launcher out there called Apus launcher in the play store I've been using. Can't quite remember how I stumbled upon it but the reviews were great for it so I gave it a try and I gotta say I love it. I was using Nova for the longest time but this new one is really nice. Very fast and makes everything seem to be much more responsive. Also it groups all of your apps for you in categorized folders by what it thinks should be grouped and does a pretty good job of it. I've been using it for a few days and figured it was worth a mention because I liked it so much. Anyway if you try it out I hope you like it as much as I do.
