x2.
Apex is by far the best of the AOSP-look launchers.

Thank you. Nova Launcher is very smooth and fast except when you fill a page of apps and slide from a page to another. Can you tell me if is it possible change lockscreen to another similar Cyanogenmod 9 to?

Can someone tell me why I would need to download a launcher?

You really don't have to download a launcher. However, ADW ex launcher seems to be bit smoother and allows a lot of customization that is not available in the stick launcher.

Yeah, it is smooth and it allows a lot of customization.
However, I am not using it because widgets are not working very well with the launcher.

There's quite a few launchers you could try personally i prefer go launcher or launcher pro. There's also launcher 7, think that's the right name, that's like the windows phone launcher qq launcher. There really is a lot of em you can try till you find one you like.

I didn't have any problems at all with widgets when I used it. In fact there was added functionality.

ICS Stock Launcher

Hello,
i donĀ“t like the TW-Launcher or all the other Home-Replacements. How can I use the stock launcher with my SGS SII (Android 4.0.3)????
Thank you!!!!
Greetings from Germany
I think you might have to push it. Have you checked out Nova launcher? Same launcher, more settings.

It has been mentioned, but I agree. Never tried Apex, since Nova, inside AOKP has always done it for me. Apex and Nova are equally cool, from what I've heard about Apex, lol. Matter of choice.

I tried trebuchet from and launcher2 from galaxy nexus, both force closed when adding a widget...
I just copied them to data/app folder and set rights similar to other apps in the same folder. Do i need to do something differently?

Are you on ICS or GB?..
Also, I remember something about pushing it to system/app instead, something about a permission, exactly because of the widgets in app launcher. Try to move it to system apk instead.
Good luck. Launcher2, I wouldn't really count on. Trebutchet, Nova and Apex, I don't see why wouldn't work

Official ICS. Everything works now with trebuchet, had to run apk to install it. Just copying/pushing didn't do the trick.

Just tried apex, very decent launcher with a lot of function, fast, and looks good, thank you guys.

[Q] Change the 4x4 home screen grid to 5x5, possible?

There seems to be enough screen space to fit 5x5 icons on the homescreens instead of 4x4.
What's the easiest way to do this on a stock SGS3?
I don't think there are any mods yet to change the stock TW launcher. You might want to check out Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher if you haven't already.

In fact, TW is already modded...

Or just install another launcher such as Go Launcher.

I just installed Nova Launcher from the market and it works perfectly.
Thanks all!

I tried out Nova (free) for a few days, have uninstalled due to:
- icons sometimes take a while to reappear.
- Calendar / S Planner widget sometimes takes a long time to populate.
The TW mods appear to need root... so I'm back to stock TW, and realizing that I don't need more than 4x4 that badly.

[Q]Best Launcher for ICS Tablets

Just like the title says, can you recommend me good launcher for my tablet? Apex Launcher can be a good alternative, Go Launcher HD doesn't give me what I need.
I'm deciding to change my launcher because it doesn't give me what I need in terms of widget capacities, homescreen numbers and the like.

Apex or Nova. They are both good, although I am currently preferring Nova.

I assume we are talking about tablets running ICS or JB. Why would you use a launcher from the stone ages when there are much better launchers based on ICS available?

Yep, my device is on stock ICS. So far I'm running Apex Launcher and it seems to fit my needs. There's a lapse though: when the portrait grid is resized to 10x10, folder names are somewhat lapping each other.
I'll keep this thread open because I still somehow need inputs from you guys. What I keep on looking now is something that replaces everything just like how Go Launcher replaces everything in my phone.

Change the grid size so it is smaller.

Nova

So it seems the best contenders are Apex + Nova. I'll try Nova soon.

[Q] transparent APP DRAWER background

Hey guys. I've been searching a way to make the CM 10.1 app drawer background become transparent. Can someone help me out?
I've followed some tuts (such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835833) but they only teach how to make the notification bar transparent.
Thanks

I've tried launchers before. They worked, but I'd like to edit Trebuchet. I'd like to use default launcher. I'm not really into launchers
Ty
Apex and nova both have this option and are both based on the stock launcher, they just have a lot more features. They look identical to stock if all you change is the drawer transparency

Try both they both offer virtually the same features I use nova launcher, but thats cos I got the prime version in an app sale
Nova(https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=nova+launcher)
Apex ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=apex+launcher)

ty very much! I'll use apex cause it's free. Maybe I'll move for nova pro later.
Both have free versions and an add on that costs money but adds lots of features
