So I have CM 5.0.6 with Helix Launcher 2 from the market with the new upgrade that includes the doc for the bottom buttons which is cool. For some reason the compact launcher does not work it's checked and the phone has been rebooted. Any ideas?
I take it you mean you have check option in spare parts. The 5 column only work on the default launcher.
Helixlauncher has it's own options.
Just as clarification, this only applies to the app drawer, correct? IE, this doesn't enable five columns on the actual home screens?
Which I'd desperately love. As well as five rows.

As usual I get drowned out in the main thread...
So I shall ask where questions are meant to be asked...
Do the change icons per row for the app tray options in the launcher settings work?
I want to change them to 4 icons per row so it looks a little less cluttered and hopefully the app tray will also run a tad smoother too

Dwang 1.12 still not working
Does that ROM include the 'Advanced Launcher'? If so press menu on the homescreen, more, try both options, one will let you choose the number of rows in the tray. You may need to kill the launcher.
On the home screen I press Menu
Then I select Extended
Then I select Home Screen and Scroll down
Then I change Tray Launcher Columns Count (port) from 5 to 4
Then I press home
I then get a blank home screen, I assume the Launcher is reloading
Once the home screen is loaded
I open the applucation tray and still get 5 rows (portrait mode of course)
I am using the black theme for Dwang 1.12

I am running CM 5.0.6 and am wondering if there is any launcher that has a 5 column app launcher like CM5.0.6, that also has the app shortcuts that replace the change screen dots at the bottom of the home screen, like on Helix Laucnher.
looking as well since installing hex launcher2 breaks the 5 row mod..no luck so far
Same here...
Same here. Have issues that are keeping me running 5.0.5.3 for now, but would love 5 column mod. Why can't someone do a morph?
I am not familiar with the HOME of Android OS.
Currently using Panda Home for my Gtab but also tried couple of other HOME app.(forgot names..) but none of them.. seems like not let me display many icons on the screen. I mean, I see the big gap between icons..
Is there any app to let me put more icons on Pandahome? or Do I need to use some specific HOME app to do that?
let me know...
Both adw launcher and launcher pro allow you to set the number of rows and columns on the screen. I prefer adw .
He is correct, adw or launcher pro are the flavors of choice around here. Personally I use Launcher pro. In the advanced setting you can set how many rows, columns, and icons to allow.
Thanks!
I see.. its relying on HOME APP.. I guess, I did not tried those two yet.
I will try it out.
thanks all!
So, I am working on a stripped, rooted 2.2.2 (nothing special, just a modded version of 2.2.2) and I have set the LCD density to 120. In the dell stage UI, designed specifically for 480x800 at 160dpi, it doesn't work too well.
I am looking for a launcher that will adapt the widget and application rows and columns to an appropriate number based on screen density, has a good UI (preferably Honeycomb or a 3D UI) and is well-polished, something people would use as an everyday UI. Any ideas?

Try LauncherPro, there is a free version. It has the ability to change the number of rows and columns.
You may have tried it, but I know that with LauncherPro you can choose 5 or 6 columns or rows of icons.
I'm not sure how it works when you modify the dpi.
Zeam Launcher is my new favourite. You can set your rows/columns, as well. Smooth and quick, and I rarely get redraws (when I do, they render very quickly).
I've been hearing good stuff about those launchers, especially LaucnherPro. I'll look into them
VTL Launcher
I use VTL on my tablets. You can select the numbers of rows and columns to make widgets and icons fit to you liking.
The other beauty is that you can have up to 3 dock bars (left, right and bottom). You can vary the size, thickness, of these dock bars as well. This can be used to fine tune the spacing of widgets/icons.
You can also lock the desktop so once you have it the way you want it so nothing get dragged out of place.
No free version, but it's cheap. It's worth a look.
Hi,
the stock roms had 5 icons in a row on the home screen. With CM there are only 4. I think this has to do with the Google launcher. However, in the apps list there are still 5 icons per row. Is there a way we can restore the old behaviour on the home screen, too, meaning 5 icons per row?
Hi mate,
U may use Xosed GEL module to customize KitKat launchers such as trebuchet, launcher3 and Google Now launched..
