If you want to resize widgets then yeah, otherwise no

I actually like lp+ more then regular launcher pro.. Resizing widgets comes in handy and you get to use all the scrollable widgets that lp comes with..
Thats all you get but for $3 who cares

Check out there website http://www.launcherpro.com/forum/
there's a lot more you can do on plus like popular from the dock bar for unread texts and missed calls. ..its pretty cool..

i bought it but i never use it. you get a lot of sense-like widgets which is very cool. I think the widgets, the look of the dock and how smooth the launcher is are the main features. Lots of customizations too of course...

I would to support the development.

if you use widgets, it will be worth it. Otherwise, stay with the free. I personally like the widget, so it was worth it for me.

THis.
Also, the cost was worth not having that popup come up every time I miss-click on a widget.

this as well. its only 3 bucks.

I like it because if the scrollable Widgets and I also wanted to support the dev since it's an app I use everyday
Sexy Vibrant featuring Sombionix 1.9.1, JAC's OC/UV, FFC installed

I did it to support the developer too. EVERYONE says how amazing my setup looks... its all because of him.

[Q] Regarding android 3.0 "honeycomb"

Alright I realize that 3.0 is made for tablets so I am not asking for a port or anything, but I was wondering if anyone has made a theme resembling it or if there is a rom that looks like it? I was checking out some videos of honeycomb and it looks really cool. And before posting this I did use the search feature and I didnt find anything..and I was a little confused by some thread titles lol
If you are running CyanogenMod Rom then you can use the honeycomb theme.
Well thres also simply galaxy 3.0 which is gingerbread witg a honeycomb thene... its a bit unstable but utherwise its pretty damn amazing

Android Honeycomb 3.0 Theme for the Vibrant (Screenshot)
Yup, there sure is. You have to piece it together from multiple things (themes, icons, etc.) to get it the way you want, but it's all out there, lol!

No prob. Just go to the market and search for the FREE "Honeycomb ADW Theme" by GFX Android. Out of all the themes that cost money, this one is ABSOLUTELY FREE and definitely the best. Wait till you see the mother load of icons it comes with along with the search bar you are asking for. And, you can always get as creative as you want with a little patience and Root Explorer, lol!

I've seen this, I'm looking for some RECENT use info
I have been using it off and on these past few weeks. I don't really care for it. I mean it's nice and convenient. Just not for me.
I used it and liked it, but switch back and forth between that and adw. Gives the phone a different feel and again shows you why android is so good that you have all these options.

Have either of you used Launcher 7? If so, how does it compare with WP7Home?
I love my launcher 7. I have been using it for the last 4 months. Not supersmooth yet but I really like the vertical scrolling of launcher 7 and the tiles are pretty customizable. I personally think it's the best launcher for me.

Yes, so the developers of ZPlayer and WP7Lock have joined the project I started a few weeks back, the Seven+ Project. I cannot speak for WP7Home, but Launcher 7 by Timo Kujala is our official launcher and I think it is quite good.

Looks a lot like Go Weather... which is free.
However, I like my beautiful widgets right now
I'd rather use Go Weather, which is free
I tried Goweather. It was ok but doesn't have near the function of BeWeather.

I appreciate your desire to pimp a product you're either the creator of, or a beta tester for, but given the sheer quantity of quality weather apps on the market, how do you/they justify charging $3.41 for their product? Beautiful Widgets is far more customizable and costs less, not to mention the plethora of other weather apps that are free and of a very high quality.

Lol, pimping? I don't think so and I wish I was the dev.
I've tried every weather app for android and this one has some of the best function.
Beautiful Widgets is exactly what it says. It should be customizable because their focus is the look. BeWeather is an actual weather app more like Palmary but with some other features.
There's no doubt they all have their positives and negatives. I was just posting it here in the apps section of the vibrant forum just like any other app.
Got a problem with that?

Oops meant to press quote, but you could try using the stock HC launcher. I like that the best out of all the ones I've tried
I basically have 3 issues with it #1 wasted screen real estate, #2 no folder support, and and #3, can't delete unused home screens

I think he meant the stock honeycomb launcher, not the stock htc launcher. The stock honeycomb launcher does not have wasted space, the other two I'm not sure about.
Ah yeah I saw a "t" in there that wasn't there lol. Yeah I saw the team syndicate one and I tried it out, only problem is it was kinda designed for gb and froyo so it has a virtual notification bar that can't be disabled... However that was the free version it might be able to be disabled on the paid I dunno. Anywhere on XDA I could just grab the apk for the actual stock launcher and install it?

It's in my ROM. If you don't want to download the whole thing for the launcher i could just link it to you
Yeah I might eventually go custom rom, I've had plenty of experience with my captivate , but for now I think I'm just going to stay stock for the time being with the flyer, so if you want to link it thats cool. Thanks!

GO Launcher EX is good. Has lots of features that most Launchers don't
But I always miss the glorious sense widgets that you cannot get any where else.
Honestly I've warmed up to the sense launcher a bit. Its basic and bare but the cool animations and awesome sense widgets make it worth using. As far as real estate, Go launcher HD had the issue too, just seems to be a honeycomb thing so whatever really. Think I'll just stick with Sense for now!
yea go launcher HD (beta) is a nice alternative to the stock or htc launchers for sure. just started using it today and really like the folder support
it's not on the market u'll have to search around for it
Yeah I found it from a google search, had a download link,and thats how I got it
Yeah I tried Go Launcher HD and it certainly a beta. Need lots of work.

the stock launcher is pretty bland, I would highly recommend Go Launcher EX or ADW over that if you want a different launcher.

I use this one, it doesn't run sense widgets, but runs great and looks awesome. I even put it on my phone.

Unique Launcher?

im looking for a launcher thats not like any others?
Examples
Launcher 7 = nice
SSLauncher = good
Sweeter Home = seems good but theres no tutorial how to customise it!!!!
i just want a nice launcher thats not like all the others
Edit: One page launchers like launcher 7 is great if there is any other launchers like this.... and launchers without an app drawer i really like such as the iphone launcher or SSLauncher.... if there are any smiler things that would be very great

Actually it's amazing. I thought it would destroy available RAM and cause slowdowns because its so feature/animation rich but not at all. It's homescreen transitions are smoother than any other launcher I've tried...except Launcher Pro but that was back inthe GB days (and for a while I've been in love with Apex and Nova).
When it first came out, yeah it sucked because it didn't have much. Nowadays, TSF shell is beast. I'm the type of guy who immediately has buyers remorse for anything that's frivolous and only for me...and it's been over a week with TSF and I'm still in love.
Once you fully customize it and have all the settings perfect...you might get punched in the face for annoying people since all you want to do is show them how cool your device is (I don't like tooting my own horn or showing off devices and yet I've done it multiple times after getting TSF)
Anyways, I'm not telling anyone this is the best for everyone...but had to throw in my 2 cents so TSF gets a fair rep.
I agree and the its terrible comment makes me wonder if he tried it for more than 30 seconds.

care to share a google play link? I can't find it
Simple Home is decent (though it doesn't support widgets).
I use Nemus Launcher just because of it's speed.
If you have a higher end device I'd say give SPB Shell 3D a go, it has some pretty sweet widgets
And if you have a tablet, Chameleon Launcher has some pretty cool features.
Maybe mihome launcher its like an iphone launcher
