Thanks advice is much appreciated

I use go launcher...its a matter of taste. Go just happens to have an appdrawer design I like and atheme I enjoy. Just download a few and see what works.

I downloaded 4 different launcher apps, and used the Home Screen Switcher to test them out.
Its quick and convenient, and you'll never be bored of the look on the device.

Launcher pro for me, the Widgets are nice and the swipe feature to see miss calleds or SMS is the best, I had it over a year now, I use adw but didn't like it as much

Does both of them consume alot of battery compared to stock launcher ... ?

There should be no diffwerence in battery consumption. I really like LP but ADW is also very good and like stated above it is really a personal preference I have the paid versions of both
ADW does do quite a bit of theming if that is your thing start there first

Battery life is the same for me as long as you no start using extra widgets because launcher pro plus had more then you ash should be fine

I bought the LP+, and definitely didn't look back. One gripe is that there aren't much font back on the market ...

Pls do your own homework & work it out yourself. Do you ask your boyfriend/girlfriend/mother what underwear to wear on any given day?
No, so dont ask other people for answers that you yourself can find out!

HoloLauncher allows you to hide the dock and status bar completely.

Lightning Launcher. Use free mode if you don't want a grid layout. It doesn't have a dock although you can set one up if you want to. It only has one home screen though it can scroll "infinitely" in any direction. You can download a addon if you really want multiple pages.
It takes a while to learn how to set everything up but it's one of the most customizable launchers around.

[APP][REQUEST] tablet ui home replacement launcher

I love the tablet ui mods that have been made possible by these wonderful devs. But most of these mods are only useable by stock Roms. Roms that are heavily modified can cause interference, lag, and system fc's. Those roms happen to be the ones I like most. Smh. So why not have a home replacement app that mimics the tablet ui mod. Tablet ui works for me because the notifications bar it's at the bottom. And I'm using a sg note2 and it is more easily accessible from the bottom. So why not have a home replacement app with its own notifications bar that can be customized to be placed at the top out bottom, and can be switched to phablet mode as well, and resizable grid.

What is your phone? AOSPA ROM is really stable. Or alternatively, use apex AND lmt launcher. Lmt should provide you with something similar to a tablet UI while apex will let you hide everything else.
Edit: Not familiar with your phone but my advice still stands

Right now at this second I'm doing a very minimal stock theme with apex launcher to see how apex will run on this phone. On my other home screens I have picture frame widgets. I don't like a lot of widgets on my home screens so it doesn't look cluttered. A nice, clean look is what I go for. By the end of the day I will end up switching back to TW Launcher because I actually am one of the few that likes TW.

Not yet. There should hopefully be an update to the launchers in the play store soon to allow this.

Yeah, I'm trying to like the stock launcher, but despite how pretty it is, I missed being able to change orientation and having more icons on the screen. I feel like the icons are oversized on stock.
