Hi guys.
I just bought my Streak yesterday and I was wondering if it was possible to have the home screens in a loop/rotation rather than having to stop at he first and last screen, like the N900?
Looking forward to your answers. Cheers.

Yeah, theres a app called home++ in the market you can do that with that i think. Otherwise do a market search for 'launcher' and you will get load of options for home replacements
Thanks for your fast reply. I'll check that out.

You can get ADW Launcher for donut as well, which is my launcher of choice.
6 rows by 6 columns means home is great in both landscape and portrate.

Has anyone else tried this launcher? I found it in the market tonight. it's like a new upgrade from the original ADS with more customizations like scroll animations. It's readily really good.
it has resizeable widgets?

Firstly, to save any confusion, this is ADW Launcher EX. It's a paid version of ADW Launcher and is worth every penny! It keeps all the original features of ADW Launcher but adds a lot of extra features such as customised home scrolling animations and the home edit function from the Galaxy S.
Goodbye Go Launcher, you have been outclassed! This is my new home app.
Hot tip: disable desktop bounce when using animations. Looks 1000 times better.
ahh thank you for that. Stopping the desktop bounce did make it look a lot better. Amazing!
And to the guy that said LP is still better.lmao, buy this app and then judge it. LP cant touch the new ADW EX launcher.
I paid for LP plus and icons a few days ago. If I new the new adw was coming out I would of waited. The new adw is very nice,slick and quick.

lol...i prefer bouncing (set to about 60).
but all about personal preference i guess
Does this version still have the "feature" of swiping the dock to hide/unhide? I never could find a setting to disable that, main reason I went to lp...

I went ahead and purchased the app, it's very nice. The most important to me was the ability to increase the size of icons (setting at 125 looks good, as I move past 150 it starts to get visibly blurry). The new effects are nice too.
Is anyone else having problems locking the homescreen to portrait with ADW Ex? Both 'portrait' and 'landscape' seem to lock the phone to landscape. Auto is the only way to get portrait, but it seems to briefly flick back to briefly landscape sometimes, even when the phone isn't rotated.

You need to check the system persistant under system preferences.

if anyone have a solution, please advise
Screeshots of ADW EX on my Streak
I just wanted to share a few examples of my home screens set up with ADW EX launcher.
Anyone else getting fc with this launcher? I love it but the number of fc is almost unbearable!

Howdy folks, any way to port the very cool screen effect fom Android 2.3 over to Atrix? The one where the screen turns off and then goes to a very small dot like the old TV sets used to do?
Thanks for the help.
nope only gb can do it
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
OK, thanks for letting me know.
On open home 6 there is a setting for that. Real good launcher too
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Actually, there are several apps in the market that reproduce this effect. Just search for it.
This is probably a very silly question but how do you remove stock homescreens on the Atrix? I only need 4, not 7. This was a very easy thing to do on my Samsung Galayx. I´ve installed Zean Launcher and I´ve been using it with 4 homescreens but I´d like to run some tests with the stock motoblur launcher and I don´t want to keep 7 screens.
Come on...nobody? This sounds simple...
If I remember correctly you have to long click on the bottom where the launcher buttons are. I'm not sure but you have to long click somewhere
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
With stock motoblur you can't. That's why I use custom launchers
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
No it can definitely be done. I've done it I just can't remember how. Try double taping the screen until the homescreen selection comes up and then try long clicking one of the screens

From Motorola forums:
"There is no way to limit the number of screens unless you use a home replacement app."

Hey guys. I'm looking for a launcher that allows you to use it completly full screen without a dck. Ive tried launcher pro and go launcher so far I haven't seen an option in any of them to remove dock so hoping one of you can help me.

What he said. I'm using a combination of ADW Launcher EX and CircleLauncher
Your main screen will look like this:
The icons you see on the top left and bottom right are CircleLauncher. When i tap them they open up the predefined app selection of my choosing. You have the choice of a circle, horizontal or vertical style.
Another neat thing on the ADW Launcher EX is that you can use the swipe up and down gesture to preform actions. For example swipe down opens my Notifications Bar and swipe up opens my Apps Drawer.
Hope you find what you need.
Here's mine ADW

I like Adw. It's simple clean and fast. Not sure if I will upgrade to the paid version since a lot of reviews are have force close issues. Are you getting any?

Personally i have never had a force close on my 3D. On my 4G I did have a couple force closes but it didn't bother me as much. Try out the free version for a couple days to get the feel of it. If you feel generous afterwards you can "donate" to the owner instead of "buying" it, that's how I looked at it. Good luck!

The same thing can be accomplished with Launcher Pro as well.
+1 for ADW. I hide the notification bar and get rid of the launcher. Here is a link to my setup. I've made some changes lately but you can get the general idea. Swipe down opens the notifications and swipe up opens the app drawer...

Any of you tried wave launcher? I love that... Another great option if you ditch the dock. And you can use it from anywhere from any app
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Yeah, ADW does exactly what you're looking for, here's another image to add to the pile on this thread =p
What my home screen looks like (click for full size):
You can also set an optional 'hidden' dock that comes up on a specified gesture (for example, if I flick upwards I get my appdrawer, phone and ADW settings).
Tried wave launcher. Wasn't feeling it. Settled on circle launcher. Advanced settings go for deep customization.
With auncher pro i could never find out how to hide dock. Anyways to much work if they can't just add a simple setting to hide it. Shame cause I want it for the gmail widget plus glass sense glass theme.
Only bad think about Adw is the app drawer lags when opening and really bad scrolling. Not much of an issue once I have my screens setup. Never need to use it.

The atrix only has 4 rows. Theres a mod that lets you have 5. i had it before but I flashed a new rom and lost it. I forgot where I got it from.
I been searching all day and cant find it.
can someone point me in the right direction?
thanks in advance!
Don't know the mod, but LauncherPro does this. Not sure if it's pro only or not.
Launcher Pro will do this without the pay version. Other launchers on the market I would guess would also do the same thing.
Launcher Pro rocks, incidentally.
Alright cool. Thanks guys!

ADW will do it.
