LauncherPro still amazing!

So I use the laucnher Launcher Pro... and its lagless and smooth. You have transition affects and everything. I use the scale and flip 2. They look the finest go check the laucnher out... p.s. easy to use while intoxicated~

I agree. And use it as my daily. If enough people request it. I can make some custom icons and docks for it.

i used to use it, until i started using ebproductions gingerbread launcher. It is much smoother and it is a 3d app drawer gb launcher. It isn't customizable though.

Blackphenix you totally should! i love luncher pro its the best luncher in my opinion.
anyone know if its worth buying the plus version?
I ve recently been using goLuncher and i like the widgets that it has. Does luncher pro plus have widgets like that?

Launcherpro plus has calender,facebook,messages, friends, bookmarks and I think like twitter and gmail

I bought launcher pro plus just to support the developer. He made something really customizable that I love. Deserves my money.

Lol yupp I bought it too~ very smooth and lagless <3

I love launcher pro too. It occasionally stutters for me while scrolling through the 3d app drawer though. I don't even have that many apps.

I have every paid launcher out there and I have to say ADW ex is by far the best because of all the customizations u can make including scroll animations like tumble slide cube ect.... if you know how to get the apps free try out ADW ex or just take my word for it and buy it it's well worth it. much better than launcher pro plus
or here is a video from youtube check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5uT3vNp2qc

thanks bro gonna try <3

go launcher ex is by far the best on gb2.3.6 the dev is very active with weekly updates and is by far the most customizable launcher out launcher pro development is dead and not even close to go launcher ex imo

Good launcher?

I'm looking for a launcher to use I am currently using adw but I tried go not a fan of either... I was hoping there was a launcher that let me place my icons and stuff without being on a grid... any ideas,

There is the Go Launcher and ADW Launcher like you said. Try LauncherPro or NovaLauncher. Just search the market for launchers. Or google. I think its all based on grid.

I've been trying them all was hoping someone knew something 3rd party not based through the market :/

You can always use circle launcher for increased personalization.
Sent from MIUI on my HTC Inspire.

My favorite right now is Launcher 7 from the market. Its simple, stylish and customizable. I'm running that on top of CM7 with an ICS theme, and haven't looked back.

Where do you get themes for it I mean I've had It but wp7 never appealed to me
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium

I paid for adw launcher ex and love it. ive used launcher pro, go launcher and adw is my fave.

I too am using ex but I'm a person who wants something different all the time and these are just getting boring :/

There are no themes for Launcher 7 as far as I know. It's basically 2 screens; the WP7 style tiled grid, and the application list to the right. What you can do though is use your own images as icons, so it doesn't necessarily have to be a colored tile with the white icon in the middle (the default setup). Using a transparent.png and some images you like you can bend it to your liking. The CM7 ICS theme just affects the highlight color when selecting an app from the list and some small color accents when hitting the soft menu.
Before I found Launcher 7 I was using Launcher Pro, so that would be my next vote, then ADW.

I use Zeam. Love it.

Go Launcher EX is really good. I can't really think of any launcher not based on a grid but there are Circule Laucher that's not really a laucher but more of a "laucher" inside of a launcher. It look really good though. An alternative is WaveLauncher which is not bad either.

I still use zeam with miui. With the Suave HD miui theme and dark fade dock it's pretty nice looking IMO

If you want something completely different, you could tty Rocket Launcher. Not my thing, but kind of cool.

i used SPB Shell 3D for some time and thought that was really cool .

Not at 15$ its not awesome xD

Launcher
I paid for ADW and used that for quite some time. I just purchased SPB Shell 3D and I have enjoyed it. The price tag is a bit steep but I have been using it on my Acer Iconia tablet and found it to be great!

I liked how you could change out the panels
Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using xda premium

I'll cast another vote for Launcher Pro Plus. I'm a big fan of its widgets. The calendar widget is very clean, minimal, and lets you toggle easily between month and list views. I have LPP running on CM7 and it's incredibly stable. It's also very customizable. You can't do away with the grid layout, but at least you can change rows/columns. It also has a super smooth vertical scrolling app drawer, if you're into that.

I don't run widgets. Cost to much memory so I just keep it clean and simple. I only use one widget at a time

Is there any good launchers?

I have a rooted xperia play. Im kinda bored of the UI of Xperia Home (the current launcher for me) since theres no cool effects or transitions when switching between homescreens or browsing through the menu. Ive tried regina launcher and go launcher. I liked go launcher although the some of the widgets i used in xperia home arent compatible with go launcher. And just to have a clock on the homescreen I had to download a clock widget from go launcher when I already have one! So is there anyway good UI which is compatible widgets that I am currently using in Xperia Home and also has transitions/effects when swiping through the homescreens and menu?

The stock Widgets wont work on other launchers
Sent from my R800i using xda premium

AFAIK, all (most) the Xperia widgets are built into the Xperia launcher so they won't work with any other launcher.
There are loads of different launchers out there. Some I have tried and some I have not (I am on ICS myself now and using Trebuchet from CM9).
Try these:

This was my favourite when I was on Gingerbread. I bought the pro version of it.

Windows 7 style launcher. Actually looks quite nice. Never tried it though.

Try sslauncher. For me it's the best.

A bit expensive for my taste ,but a nice launcher nonetheless

If transitions and 3d effects are what you are looking for then you will like it.

Why don't you guys try the TSF launcher, someone stated the best launcher in android ever, I'm using it now. Make me feel buying a brand new phone. Everyone has complained their original launcher should try.

[Q] Live wallpaper question?

Is it possible to choose a live wallpaper on my tab 2 only for the lock screen and a normal wallpaper for the home screen ? If it helps I'm running aokp build 4

I think its really strange since android is the most customizable system I have ever owned .....

I am on stock 4.0.4 and I can only select a live wallpaper for the home screen not the lock screen. But both Can use normal wallpaper... would be cool to do it the other way around....

Yeah ....since scrolling with a live Wallpaper is kinda of slow that's why I want to put it on the lock screen it looks cool

May be try go locker app and the themes of it have numerous live wallpapers

The problem is that I must use it with go lanucher and I would have to pay for the standalone version....... anything for free ?

I use Power Puddle which is a live wall paper on the lockscreen. The droid melts as the battery level drops.
