New launcher.....? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all.......I'm thinking about changing my launcher......
I currently use Apex but have used Nova and Go in the past. I never liked stock Touchwiz and am not over fond of Trebuchet.......
I don't want my phone to look like a Windows phone or an iPhone.
I want to be able to use my own images for some of the app icons, and the launcher itself needs to use a minimal amount of the phones resources........
So, anybody have any recommendations?......
Cheers...

Holo Launcher is pretty good. But to be honest there has been a ton of new launchers that I have seen on the play store. It is best just to try them yourself lol.

@androidrocks23 how did it go?...
I've created 45 alternative buttons for my phone....didn't know where to stop.....lol
Edit....here's a link to a zip of about 30 of them I created for some familiar apps......
https://www.dropbox.com/s/j9kdat2fil0mk1u/App Buttons.zip
You don't even need to insert them in the theme app......
Just go to your home screen, long press the button you want to change, select 'edit', touch the icon picture and select one of the downloaded buttons from your gallery.......

Totally satisfied with the results....

[App] Ice Cream Sandwich 2.4 Launcher

EDITED 12/2/2011
NOTE - The Pro version, ICS+, is now a key! You must install ICS Launcher to continue using it. This new system will prevent many errors from occurring, such as "Duplicate Provider Authority"
FINALLY! Here is the latest and greatest update! Not only is it rebuilt, it is redesigned and based off our not-so-far away launcher called Omega.
The latest build brings tons of new settings and advancements. It also received new scrollers so it should be buttery smooth now and not choppy like it was before. lol
Anyways, APK is available on syndicateapps.com and the Android Market.
ICS Launcher V1.4.0.0 - Most stable and most featured packed version released
Market Link - https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.SyndicateApps.ICSv2&hl=en
I am not allowed to post a link to the paid or pro version because it is against forum rules. So, if you enjoy this launcher please consider donating or purchasing the paid version which includes many new features! :-D

Don't worry. honeycomb launcher is still being worked on. we are actually building a tablet version because many tablet manufacturers want it pre installed on there tabs since they can't get real honeycomb due to the devices not being up to standards. lol.
update this week hopefully! if school doesn't keep me too busy :-/

In the running apps: Sms says device not supported, email-gallery-music all force close, and system settings does nothing. When you have the app drawer open and go from portrait to landscape it closes the app drawer and vice versa.
Mytouch4g running latest Miui
It looks really unique!
The only think lacking is the electric blue theme. The icons are a little blurry too.
Force closes on launching from "Running Apps". I dislike the font though.
yes, the running apps panel is not done. it is taken out of HCL because I am not sure what the real running apps looks like for Ice cream sandwich. I know the buttons force close for many of you because the package names for all devices are not in there.
after school today I will make an update of it and repost the apk.
Looks good
The dock background seems kind of unfinished though, as do other things as well such as the multitask button. Just polish it a bit and it'll rock.
Also, change the icon, it looks horrible

[FIX] App-Drawer on MIUI Launcher

After flashing the brilliant MIUI rom, i decided to check out the stock launcher. It is one of the smoothest launchers i've used on my infuse other than Launcher Pro, however i was disappointed to be confronted with a I-Phone like home screen experience where all the apps were hanging around willy nilly! Hence i found a simple solution to the problem and it is only 2 steps .
Instructions:
1.Put all of your apps into a single folder except for the ones that you plan to keep on your home screens.
2.Download Alt Drawer and put it in your dock. This will now be your app drawer!
There you go its as simple as that! The experience is almost identical to other launchers.
However to add an app from the app-drawer, u must close the app drawer and grab it out of your folder where you stock-piled all the other apps.
Hope this helps someone...first thread on XDA hope i dont get yelled at
Here is an implementation of what i'm talking about:
My home screen with alt-drawer being the right most app on my drawer
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And on this screen you can see alt-drawer when opened up.
Also i forgot to mention earlier, alt-drawer is very very customizble.
You can change lots of settings
(i.e Background transparency, icon size, font size, font color, side-side scrolling/vertical scrolling, hide/show notification, orientation etc)

This a handy way to get an app drawer. Ive been running MIUI on my Sony X10 for quite a while now. I typically had put all the apps in the tools folder, but the AltDrawer0.7.1 apk works great.
Does the app have a setting so it could scroll side to side like in Touchwiz?

YES
take a look at the screenshot those are all the options. The style option for me is grid...there is another option called page-page which is horizontal. just get app lol its free anyway
Looks like a nice addition. I was just throwing all my apps in one folder and sticking it on the dock. Works basically the same way, but not as customizable.
Nice, thank you I may just try Miui now because of it my friend lol.
thanks for this man. really helpful. I saw another mod, but not as flexible as this. I hope they implement that app drawer concept that's getting big cred on the miui.us site, but this will due until then if that ever gets implemented

I notice that sometimes when I open up the App Drawer, a blank screen comes up before the list of programs appear. It can be up to 6-7 secs.
I tried the suggestion of using Titanium to make AppDrawer a system app. Tried to find the app and move it to the other location, but couldn't find it. Will try again.

Make sure it's on internal memory not sd card. Use Root Explorer and move from
/data/apps to /system/apps.
Works fine after that.

Honestly, I didn't know it had to be moded to work on GB/ICS. I've searched the web a while ago and found version 1.0.0 (provided by you) and also 1.1.0, which has one or two extra options at 'Home Settings' (Image quality and Tails - for the animation.)
Here's a direct link, from some chinese site: http://count.liqucn.com/d.php?id=19...2/daolpu/moc.ncuqil.elif//:ptth&from_type=web
I was unable to attach the .apk, xda seems to be grumpy right now...
The launcher is working fine on ICS (tested as I speak).
Anyway, speaking about porting: it would be awesome if someone could port that beautiful and unique lockscreen... :cyclops:

Porting 1.6 stock launcher is on the list of future projects
As for the widgets, i'm not sure if it is possible to use any widget from GB+.
weekender90, there are different versions of this launcher, as you said some of them don't need any mods in order to work, however some need to go through some changes . As for the lockscreen, yes, it would be awesome to have, but i belive that there would be too much file-rewriting and even then it may not work properly.
dontbelive, there aren't any widgets unfortunately, Sony Japan released the launcher only

Nice port and i like the lwp. But it seems that the lockscreen couldn't take over the slider default of stock roms and it always appears before the ambient lockscreen. So you get 2 lockscreens.
Another thing i noticed is that rebooting the phone will disable access to the drawer. Only happened though when i used the launcher as a default replacement.
But still it's visually good.
Ei dev, any chance that this couls become a home.apk replacement? And i can suggest, i think this will go perfectly if themed with your 4 corner mod. Just a suggestion. Grear work bro.:thumbup:
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
The lockscreen bug appears because the new lockscreen is a separate app that is been set to appear first when phone reboots or is being unlocked, so removing UXPlockscreen.apk from system apps may solve this problem.
For the second question i have no solutios as settings this launcher to default is something that i don't reccomend as it doesn't always loads its resources properly.
And finally, if you'rea talking about merging the two launchers it would be impossible as they have different API levels, it's a good idea though.
P.S. i'm still working on a 1.6 launcher if anyone interested

[APP][4.0+] SF Launcher Alpha

SF Launcher Is a Google Now Inspired Launcher For Your Android Device..
As you can see from the images, the higher section of the launcher presents your usual, quick-reference information such as time and date, as well as a graphic of a the San Francisco / London / generic Google Now skyline which changes depending on the time of day.
Underneath that, you get the widgets section, and adding / removing widget cards is a piece of cake. You simply tap on the "Add…" button, and by swiping across, you can also conveniently switch widget cards. A long press of a widget brings about the option for you to remove it, and while one cannot yet rearrange them, said functionality is, according to the developer, forthcoming.
The developer seems pretty keen to move onwards and upwards, but of course needs the help of users, so by downloading and submitting bug reports you can help turn SF launcher into one of the very best available on Android.

Re: SF Launcher Alpha
So I tend to just bounce around xda alot. And I stumbled upon your app. Really awesome concept, just not quite ready for me to replace apex just yet. What are your future plans as far as features go, or is this pretty much what you plan on leaving it as? I really do Love the concept.
Few ideas I feel might help it kick off as a new launcher
Ability to set custom images as header, more header hotkey options(ie: long press to date to set new calendar event, long press clock to set new alarm) hide apps
Looking forward to seeing what you have in store. Nice work

mad slick looking launcher... only need a few options like: ability to hide icons from app drawer, themes support, and folder support... than I would definitely use this app!... Maybe as eye candy the ability to auto change the background picture depending on the weather and time
Very nice looking launcher. I'll give it a try.
nice launcher,, but I still don't understand why it shows dialog to restart the launcer when I pressed back button on my navigation menus...

He's not the developer, he is only making the community aware of the app's existence.
