Home replacement applications - Optimus One, P500, V General

I have the LG Stock 2.3.3 and I'm a little bored of the home launcher. Please suggest home replacement applications.

go for launcher pro mate you will feel the smoothness in ui i am currently using it in stock 2.3.3

launcher pro you can hide your apps and go launcher

I've tried almost every free home replacement, and I liked go launcher ex the best. It has superb features and transitions, very customizable and always gets new features.
I've also tried SPB shell which has superb transitions and is the best home screen if you like to show off your phone, but I feel go launcher has better utility, and while SPB shell offers timescape like widgets, we get tired of them very quickly, and its very overpriced.

Which home application do you use ?

I use LaunchPro instead of TouchWiz and I'm very satisfied,
I can configure more rows / icons than so graphics looks better, I can configure dock (2 or 3 docks also with gesture support) and better support for App2sd after reboot.
What do you use as your home enviroment ?
i use GO Launcher is very fast and simple
I use Stock TouchWiz, i've tried ADWLauncher, LauncherPro and GoLauncher, both a bit too slow for me.. But i'll give i5510's touchwiz launcher à try (For the Landscape support \o/).
The LG Optimus launcher is awesome too, but it doesn't work well on the i5800... it needs some work

depends on which version of LaunchPro do you use,
I use LaunchPRo and I think it's not slower than TW
but I was trying Go Launcher - and the phone was slower
I use zeam launcher, dock is my favorite

can you create there activities like in LauncherPro ? I think that activities and gestures with dock are the best features of Launcher Pro. And Icons 5x4 looks better then 4x4 or 5x5

Yes, i tested with older firmwares. But i will check it out with JPA
EDIT:
Apps exploring is very fast in LaunchePro but vertical scrolling doesn't likes me, i prefer horizontal.
I use LauncherPro. 8.2. Extremely fast and responsive....

go launcher is great. with ios like features.....
i have used every home replacement, but surely this is diff.
home orientation change is the fastest among all the launchers..
i have go launcher only and uninstalled all launchers even tw launcher thru titanium backup.....
I prefer them in this order :
ADW Launcher (hiding dock and resizable widgets are my favourites)
Go Launcher (a very complete package but consumes a lot of battery)
Launcher Pro (activities and swipe gestures are favourites here)
Zeam (very light weight)
Live Home (3D awesome effects)
I have all of them and keeps changing (killing all other through Task Manager) as per my mood
Launcher Pro is the best of all....

Which one is for you the most used one ?

ADW and then Go Launcher.
Zeam when I am running low on resources
Launcher Pro and Live Home when I need beauty over substance
And I did not like GingerBread launcher. Its just bland for its size

[Q] Best Launcher App

Hi,
I have been using ADW Launcher for my SG 3 on Froyo. But is this the best launcher app available? How does it compare with the Launcher Pro as well as the stock Android Launcher?
Also, can i uninstall my stock android launcher using Titanium backup?
ADW EX is the BEST!
it all depends on what you want from a launcher, everybody is different.
try:
zeam launcher (free-lightweight)
go launcher (free-has some useful things i havent see in other launchers)
helix launcher
launcher pro (free and paid version)
live home
...
and decide
for me personally its between zeam and go
edit: fixed helio to helix
I like both ADW EX and Go Launcher EX. My number one thing is horizontal scrolling in the app drawer. Vertical scrolling is a joke and completely useless.
Imo, ADWEx. Hands down. The customization is just very high and the 4D gingerbread-drawer style is most epicly epic
ADW EX rocks! Would love a scrolling dockbar on it though (like in launcher pro)

Is ADW EX worth buying? What is the battery / system performance?
if your main concern is battery/system performance get zeam. its free
Will try zeam then.
There are
Launcher pro
Zeam
Go launcher
Adw launcher
Live home
aHome
Gigerbread launcher
Helium launcher(I don't know this one. I just saw something in previous post)
I am using adw. But there are no big diferences between launchers. Everithing is better than stock one. If I should say what's best:
1. Adw launcher and go launcher.
2. Zeam and launcher pro.
3. Others

MY advice is Adw launcher or Gigerbread launcher. I'm using ADWLauncher, but if you google the different launchers, you can see what's works best for you as an individual! everyone has different looks i.e. pros and cons

Gingerbread launcher sucks ! All u get is the dock. No customisations nothing !
Sent from my GT-I5801 using XDA App
ADW or check em out yourself.
I think GoLauncher is the best. For me it looks way faster than ADW.
Deffo LauncherPro for me, quickest out of the lot, and the dock customisation with swipe gesture gives you many more options for quick launch compared to other launchers.
But as everybody says try a few before you buy, as everybody individual.
I use *spark.
Launcher pro is my personal favourite. Swipe gesture actions with scrolling dock bar means 30 shortcuts on the dock alone. Invaluable.

What best launcher for the XT720?

For you which best launcher for the XT720?
I liked the Sony's Arc Launcher
But currently the best for me is the ADW launcher.
The Go Launcher is great, but in my XT720 always gave problem and restart the cellphone.
I prefer Zeam Launcher. Although it doesn't support scrollable widgets, it is fast, lightweight and stable.

Hi
I think the go launcher would be a good choice

Have tried many, nothing but launcher pro does it for me
I use ADWex bc that is what I used from the start, but I have a LPP backup bc I once got in a home loop and it sucked-big-time. Had to restored via TB in between loops. When I say it sucked, believe me, I'm not lying.
Launcher Pro Plus for sure. Aldo ADW and Go are pretty good too. Depends on personal preference I guess.

LPP is good but you need to purchase Plus version to use Widgets.
Go Launcher EX is the best and it is totally free. with widgets more than LPP. And also totally customizable.
i'm too using GO Launcher EX, very smooth and fast, lots of good FREE themes to choose from
I like try new launchers I'm now useing nemus launcher low memery use fast and the best thing its free.

good suggestion
i didn't even know that thing existed
i though they only made the IM chat software
I'm using Launcher pro for a while but, trying Go Launcher ex now.. it looks great and potential to my next default launcher
My favourite Go Launcher
just trying go launcher and here's my thought:
Go Launcher EX eats much more ram than launcher pro... 24 mb compare to launcher pro only 13 I think. what a pity since Go launcher has a lot of themes and customization, but no option to lower the ram comsumption.
Can we tweak Go launcher to use less ram?
Go Launcher Notification seems to be a good feature at first.. but after lot of FCs and a reboot, I realize that it takes 23-24mb to operate... so i needto turn it off.
so... maybe I go back to LP soon..
QQLauncher? It looks nice and I'll try it next
hmm... is there a way to use GO Calendar Widget with other launchers ?

[Q] x8 launcher :-B

HeY hi guys suggest bEsT laUncHeR foR mA X8
Well,i use Launcher Pro,simple,very fast and smooth,also You could use Xperia Active Launcher,not so smooth,but its cool!
I like a lot the one called MxHome
ADWLauncher EX is awesome
Launcher Pro + XperiaArc Theme.
And it will look like Arc Launcher if you use a dock background but since it is LP, it is way more faster.

Default launcher is the best
honeycombs launcher is d'best.. find in market..
well heres how it goes
Fastest: launcher pro
Most good looking : SPB SHELL
MOST STABLE: DEFAULT LAUNCHER
I am using Launcher Pro on my GDXv017 ROM, smooth and powerfull.
The best, imho, remains Launcher Pro: highly customizable, theme-able and the smoothest i've tried.
If you like something lightweight, can try Zeam Launcher, I like its scrollable dock and the vertical scrolling in the app drawer (that default home doesn't have), even if it's a minimal launcher.
I tried also Claystone 3D, it seems fine to me, lot of features and I think more suitable (in terms of weight and smoothness) for our phone with respect to SPB.
