There's certainly enough screen real estate for at least one more row. And if they weren't spaced 25 miles apart there would be plenty of room for another column as well...
Use another, third party launcher besides the stock or Google Launcher and you can set as many rows or columns you need depending on their limits. Atom, Nova and several other launchers come to mind. I think MIUI lets you change it too.
Also just as an FYI, stick with the Q & A forum for questions as some people will remind you later om.

Are you talking about the home screen? If so, you can change the layout from 4x4 to 4x5 or 5x5

Thanks, but I'm talking about folders, like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"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"
}

I tried Nova when I first got the phone but some of the widgets looked really crappy compared to stock, so I went back to Touchwiz. I'm not sure which is the lesser of evils between the limited folders or crappy widgets! I haven't heard of Atom launcher. I'll check it out.
Thanks!

I'm looking for a way to add a specific widget to my lockscreen. Is this possible? If so, how would I go about doing it.
Thanks.
Unless you are making your own lockscreen, there is no.such option.
It would kind of defeat the purpose of the lockscreen.
Look for flyscreen in the market.
Also try widget locker, you can pick from specific lock screens and add widgets

I looked into both of those... It seemed that they only allowed for certain widgets. Maybe I'll try em out.

Flyscreen allows all android widgets.
This is what you want my friend.
It allows you to put any widget & shortcuts you want on your default lock screen.
But it costs $0.99
I've tried it in beta form. Its a tiny bit laggy but it works.
Widget Locker:

Thanks to all for helping out. I tried both FlyScreen and WidgetLocker, but decided that I didn't really care for widgets all over my lock screen (alas, indecisiveness). That being said, WidgetLocker is far superior, so if you're looking for something like this, it's worth the junior bacon cheeseburger.
This maybe a strange request, because everyone wants exactly the oppisite. I really like the minimalistic look of the standard Launcher Pro dockbar. This isn't only due to the icons, but also because it hasn't a background, the icons just float. However, for certain reasons I can't use Launcher Pro, but I would really like that dockbar on a different launcher, like ADW or Go Launcher Ex or something.
Basically, what I want is this: the looks of Launcher Pro (because the dockbar is the main look of a homescreen replacement), but without using Launcher Pro. So if there's a launcher that just copies Launcher Pro, that's OK too.
By the way, does anyone know which icons are used in the following lockscreen (ignore the other homescreens)?
{
"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"
}
You could replicate the "floating" look by either using the "no dock" setting in ADWex or Go launcher. If there isn't such a setting you could simply create a transparent dock much in the way people create transparent Icons.
Nice! By the way, I see know that Go Launcher Ex uses something very similar (or the same) as Launcher Pro as its standard dockbar. I just searched with Google Images, but I suppose it showed me customized dockbars...
I really like this, because I think Go Launcher is even better than Launcher Pro.
Someone know something about the icons in the lockscreen?
I highly recomend this guys cause this launcher is extremely smooth doesn't use alot of memory an comes with a large amount of functions

currently can't change the awsome clock/weather widget to any weather settings outside of china

Oooohhh... I like how clean that is. Question, though, what is that icon that reads "Cleaner?"

its a task killer icon built into the launcher though i'd say its not as agressive as others but no hang ups on the latest version of the launcher. also forgot to mention this but it has the option to change your lockscreen aswell (doesn't rotate in landscape).
I've been using it for a while, there was recently an update for version 2.3, go check it out

So what's faster? This or LauncherPro? Also, which has the smallest memory footprint?
Try Nemus Launcher if you're looking for a launcher with light memory usage and smoothness and it's a pretty simple launcher to adjust to. The only thing you might dislike is lack of support for scrollable widgets. 360Launcher on the other hand is more eye candy than anything and only seems to work smoothly on more high end devices and I wouldn't recommend anyone with a low end device to use it, but it is packed with some pretty awesome features that made it more than just a gorgeous launcher. I stuck with it for everything it can do and it gets updated pretty often, within days and not weeks or months.
Is sexy gonna put this on my backup sidekick to see how i like it.
i like this laucher, its fast and fancy but still needs alot more themes and tweaks

As you can see in the screenshot, after modifying the DPI to something more realistic and not comedic, the UI adjusted perfect except it didn't center the all apps icon above the home button. I'm wondering how this could be fixed through maybe a mod or something.
I do not want a new launcher that doesn't have Google Search built in. Its not the same stock experience. Any idea what I should do?

Depends what you are trying to do. Are you trying to get more docked icons at the bottom, or the main grid on the launcher. Basically, what I did is I changed my DPI to 439 (wanted 445, but notifications get cut off in the pulldown bar). This is ideal for me and gives me an app drawer grid of 5x6. However, the launcher grid stayed the same, so I used the Launcher Tweaks settings in Gravity Box to customize the launcher grid to 5x5. Now, I still only have 4 apps in the dock tray on the bottom (plus the app drawer icon in the middle), but I do have a 5x5 grid on the homescreen. It looks like it came from the factory this way.
Good day people, nice to meet you!
Recently my version of MIUI was updated to 13.0.3.0, and I noticed that my favorites bar changed, leaving an app out.
I don't know if I changed something earlier and it coincided with the update, but I doubt that is the case.
Anyway, my goal is to be able to choose 6 apps in the favorites bar instead of the 5 apps that I have now.
I attached photos, thank you very much!

Thank you for your reply
Does using other launcher have any downside?
EDIT: Downloaded Nova Launcher but couldn't get gestures to work instead of the three buttons at bottom. Anyway I didn't really like it, I'd prefer fixing Poco Launcher, thanks
Just update Poco Launcher from apkmirror to the latest.

I use Nova and have gestures instead of three buttons, you must set it in system settings, not in Nova settings.
