THANK YOU! I've been looking for this for 2 days!

this works on the sense ui(evo)?????????

Its a launcher. Once you select this as your launcher you cannot use sense (widgets) unless off course you just switch back your launcher to htc sense.

take an icon from your app drawer, drag it to the main body of your background, then drag the icon to the launcher and drop.

sure. i dont take credit for it, as i didnt develop it. just found it wasnt showing in market.

What widgets are those btw? Beautiful or some others? Forgive my ignorance, my EVO arrives tomorrow and it'll be my first Android device, just trying to compile a list of all the stuff I wanna try and I certainly like the overall look you've put together w/ADW and that stuff. Love the wallpaper too btw, I've got the very same one in rotation w/others on my desktop, heh.

beautiful widgets for the time/weather & the vibrate widget.
es task manager is the task killer icon on the right of the battery widget.
battery widget is "batterylife" by curvefish in the app market.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Love the launcher, any way to the HTC widgets??
I use the bookmarks, agenda and clock with time/temps .

unfortunately not.
smooth calendar, or android agenda widget is a good replacement for the htc agenda with some more customizable options.
beautiful widgets is another good replacement for the htc clock. with many types of skins.
the bookmarks im not to sure. never use them personally. if i did i would just use the android bookmark "shortcuts"

Ok will give it a try. But cannot see an Android Agenda widget. All I see is an Android calendar widgej which is very "lite".

does this use less battery life and/or memory than say stock sense?

one thing that i noticed is when you turn on your screen and then drag down to unlock, the wallpaper will shift downward as well. is there a fix to this?
i am going to have to dump adw if there isn't a fix for this.. it drives me up the wall.

If you have the device held horizontally its going to do that. If that is what you are talking about. Not a glitch.

I like the RAB and LAB buttons. Very useful.
I have the LAB as Phone (to make calls) and RAB as a folder.
The problem is I cannot add/remove apps from the folder.
I initially created the folder on the desktop, added about 10 apps to it then dragged it to the RAB. Excellent. I have access to those 10 apps almost 90% of the time.
Problem is I cannot add a new app shortcut to that folder.
Is there a way to undock/shift the folder from RAB back to desktop to add app shortcuts then back to RAB?
Because I tried adding an app shortcut to the folder by dragging it from desktop to RAB but that app got registered as the bew RAB and I lost the folder. Had to redo it all over.
otherwise its great.
thanks

this any different from ADW.Launcher in market?

[HOMESCREEN] Cover Flow Home screen

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
ok so this is a little guide on how to get the 'cover flow' style homescreen. first off, i think some of you (ok well a small minority) will be happy to know that it doesnt require root. all you need is launcher pro or adw luncher and multipicture live wallpaper. now there is a drawback to this method, which is you cant change your wallpaper unless you edit the .psds provided. oh and just for the record i am currently using miui rom but it is not needed. ok so here we go.
1) download the coverflowwallpapers.zip containing the wallpaper for each page
2) download either adw launcher or launcher pro from the market and apply as default home screen
3) get rid of the dock bar and icons from the launcher. it would be a good idea to set a swipe gesture to show the app drawer so you still have access to all your apps. i would also recommend changing the number of home screen rows to 5 to compensate for the row lost due to the thumbnails.
4) download MultiPicture live wallpaper from the market.
5) go to select wallapaper/live wallapers/then select multipicture and then press settings
5) using the images you downloaded from this post and change the wallpaper for each page. (seeing as im a nice guy i numbered them for you)
6) finally, got to the transition type and choose your favourite one. i chose to go with wipe as it makes the thumbnails look like they are rotating but some of the others look great too.
so there it is. hopefully this tutorial isnt too hard to follow. also if you have your won ideas/modifications, post them here cos i wanna see them too
heres a crappy video of it in action
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx0uGYOUWR0

thanks for doing this! trying it now.

2) download either adw launcher or launcher pro from the market and apply as default home screen
How'd you make it default?

Hit the home button and then a prompt will show your available home screens and launchers. Check the radio button on the bottom of the pop up and select adw or launcherpro. You can clear the "default" if you decide to do something else and not use LP or ADW.

after downloading a new launcher from the market, press the home button and it should give you an option to which launcher you want to go to. check the make default option and then press the launcher you want.

ok, how do I get rid of the dock bar and how do I set a gesture for getting it back?

sputnik99 said:

The way I am doing it is by replacing the icons with a blank icon. Essentially the icons are still there, but invisible and I can still assign a swipe up gesture if I wanted to.

You probably don't want to use the term "cover flow" as I would be willing to bet Apple has a trademark on that term.

2 things :
1. first and foremost, thank you for actually listening to us and making this available for us to use.
2. since no one is really taking the initiative can you make several different walls and icons for us?
Thanks,

sorry I simply don't have the time to do that. this setup was initially made for me but some people asked me to share how I done it so I did. I knew not everyone would like the wallpaper and/or icons which is I why I uploaded the .psd file. there's only so much I can. also it doesn't seem like many people are interested but that's cool as i know this kind of setup is not for everyone.

Don't be discouraged. I've liked this setup since I first saw it--it's very different. If I hadn't just rehauled my own homescreens, I'd be slavishly copying yours.
I do have the time and tools to make something out of your .psd too, so maybe when I get home (i.e. to the PC with photoshop installed) I might try my hand at it.

Thanks

I think thats HDwidgets.

Yes it is.

I spent hours (literally) poking away at Adwlauncher EX and this is what I came up with. Compared to what it used to be (first post) I like being able to use more of the screen and force widgets to be the way I want...but still not sure about the smaller icons. No way to have the exact same icons in Adw?

I would very much like for this thread to survive like similar threads have on other subforums, so I guess I'll try to breath some life into it once again.
I ended up going portrait only for my homescreen and like it:

I feel as if everyone here has put in way more thought into their home screens then I have. I just have the one...

Calendar (and twitter) is Android Pro Widgets with the Graphics Dark theme and about 100 on transparency. Tasks are Astrid Pro with encouragements disabled and fully transparent background

Here's mine:
Screen 1, Home:
I set quick launcher on the droid logo:
Screen 2, Work:
Screen 3, Reading another circle launcher on the book holder:
Screen 4, Media, launcher on the ipod center button
Screen 5, Games, Circle launcher again on pointed lines
thats it, well atleast until i've getting bored and start build another one...

What launcher and what's the notebook thing in the third pic?

sorry, i forget to tell the ingredient:
-adw launcher 1.3.3.1
-palmary weather
-circle launcher
-desktop visualizer
-minimalistic text
-multilive wallpaper
the notebook is a picture i found on google and photoshop it lil bit, as for the application shortcut on the left page, i use desktop visualizer with exported pen memo drawing for the icon...

Is being able to customize the top toolbar with shortcut to apps etc only in normal adw or have I missed it in adw launcher ex?

Im sorry i dont understand your question...
afaik the top toolbar is uncostumizeable, as for the screen icon on the left I use laucher action shortcut and yes perhaps it's only available on the adw launcher ex version

Seems to be a difference between ADW launcher EX versions then. On mine, which is the latest, it seems there's only the drop-down menu button and no way to change it

That home screen is really cool dewadewi. Thanks for some cool ideas, I was hoping for a new kind of homescreen setup other than the common android/honeycomb one. I like the launchers.

Note 5 Weather Widget Works With Nova Launcher

READ THE WHOLE THING!
Im using the OFFICIAL weather widget that comes in our Note 5.
The thing is the widget looks different in the preview of Nova Widgets.. The widget looks like white blue calendar in the preview however once you put the widget on the "Desktop" it'll turn into the one that's on the touchwiz launcher.
Widgets > Scroll all the way down till you see the widget "Weather 5X2" (AGAIN it will look different in the preview) > Then apply to home screen.
The only thing that is not available is the clean digital clock but you can do my fix which comes pretty close to the clock widget.
The clock I'm using is a skin through beautiful widgets pro.
- BW Clock 2x1
- Skin: S5-Lollipop-Smooth.
- Turn the background to 0%
- Feature: none
- Select the Date Format of your choice
Once you guys get the widgets setup re-size them to complete the look.
Hope this helps!!

Note 5 Weather Widget Works With Nova Launcher ?
Goes to Widgets, looks through them all, nope don't see the stock Samsung Weather / Clock widget in Nova. So no, this doesn't work, without a third party widget.
The thread title is very misleading. As I would love Nova to allow some stock Weather / Clock widgets to work. Same with HTC Sense widget, most of the good stock ones don't work with Nova.

The only thing I found that looks vaguely close to Samsung weather clock widget is HD weather widgets

Question Is there anyway to fit more app icons on the home screen the default

Hello, I have a Galaxy S10+ and I am setting up my new Pixel 7 Pro, but I have a problem, I have set the font size and display size to the smallest and set the screen resolution to the highest but I am still not able to have 5 icons side by side as used to on my Galaxy S10+, can you fix that on the Pixel 7 Pro or is that not a possibility.

Hold an empty spot on the desktop, then go to wallpaper & style, set the grid size to what you want on the bottom of the menu.

Ahh ok, had totally forgot that was the cause, lol such an easy task.

Or alternatively avoid Google's launcher and go for something infinitely more customizable and superior. I'd advise Nova Launcher.

Or group them and with one extra touch you can quadruple the number available.

I seem compelling as the stock launcher with the search bar in the buttom and the at glance in the top sucks ass.
Do you miss anything by installing the nova launcher or do you just get extra stuff and another launcher, like is there any reason to stick with the default launcher other then keeping it stock.

I like to use the default apps, including the launcher, when they allow me to do what I want/need. But when it comes to the Google/Pixel launcher I feel that Google is acting like Apple in NOT ALLOWING me to remove the STUPID search bar! I have never needed or used a search on a cell phone! So I do not want it taking up my screen real estate! So then, it's back to Nova Prime!

Ues I am thinking the same also for the "At a Glance" stupid thing, google, please allow me to remove these things.

~86 apps, 12 folders, 8 widgets - made to look like 15 app icons and 4 obvious folders (and 8 widgets). I might've lost count of the apps and skipped a few. In Nova Launcher Prime, with some "folders" set to behave like apps unless I swipe up or down on their icons. Some icons I have different swipe up and swipe down actions to launch other frequently used apps that I don't really need an icon for.
