I just cant decide which one is the best. I prefer the pinch preview feature that launcher pro has. Works almost like sense ui's, but I like everything else on adw. Mainly the docks and functionality tweaks in the preferences menu. Launcher pro is a bit more snappy, but the pinch preview has gotten me hooked. But the sense ui scroll bouncing is way way better on adw. It gels mute like sense when I scroll. which do you prefer?

I like them both alot .....been using ADW for quite sometime,,,,back when you had to flash it before it was in market ....but now that Launcher Pro allows you to modify the app launchers I am starting to like it more .....
but now i just keep them both installed
I been using adw since it was a flashable zip as well. I remember emailing anderweb about putting it on the market. Still a great app, but launcher pro has upped the ante on better functionality.

I really like launcher pro....I tried Adw but thought laucher pro was visually nicer and faster.
They are both great launchers, I have both installed but currently using ADW. I think, at this point, the scales are tipped toward ADW for me. But you really can't go wrong either way, both great devs and they work in cooperation with each other helping with each others work to make it better. How awesome is that?
Using ADW and haven't tried LP yet.

Well if that's the case, then they need to combine their apps and create the ultimate masterpiece. their pretty much very similar in many ways. The two seem like fragments of what the apps are supposed to be. They just need to bring the two together and form like voltron!! they'll take over the market together.

ADW on Ic3 Rom here and I love it. I tried launcher pro briefly but I really like the layout of adw better.
LP for me. All the icons I use most are included, phone contacts ect...

The developer has acknowledged some kind of problem with the market. You can download the apk from his website. I cannot post links but it is
www dot launcherpro dot com
Awesome! Thanks dude!
launcher pro!!!
it even has the option to make it look like AWD launcher!!
hahaah.. pwnage
Im on the launcher pro bandwagon. Its much better performancE wise. The main thing I like about adw is that 6 icon retractable dock and the way it scrolls. Feels just like sense when you configure it properly. It lags a lil tho. Lp is a lil more reliable, although it had its lags in some areas as well.

Can't use LauncherPro b/c it requires Android 2.1 but ADW Launcher is great, and the latest version has the pinch-preview desktop switching now too.
Adw and launcher pro are now tied in my book.

Due to Samsung Permission set on there shared uid, we have came into a problem on the Stock Vibrant ROM that we can't remove Twiz Launcher without having Force Close issue's.
This is for Stock user's with root that wish to remove the Twiz Launcher..
File attached..
btw, I love the Wallpaper with this one..
anyone give this one a try? I'm willing to do it when I get home.
Gonna give it a go will post back.
Edit: Its hanging on install for me anyone else?
What's the difference between installing this, or a different replacement launcher such as ADW or Launcher Pro?

EDIT: ohhh apk inside, duh.. hhaha
Nvm just read the post above me...... Had no idea this had an apk inside the zip.
Why would I care about uninstalling the twiz launcher? I never see it since I installed ADW from the market.. A far as I an concerned, it is gone.

It runs faster.
How? The twiz launcher is not running on my phone. Task manager confirms that. So how could it be faster?

Well answer me this. Why do you delete blote ware? Is it to save memorie? That would be why you want to run this app. If you delete touch wiz it will free up space. Hence telephone runs faster.

You do not install the launcher.. It will never work try to do adb install, you have to push it into /system/app.
Pretty cool looking and runs fairly smooth on the Eris. Trying it out now:

One of the best features I've found so far - iPhone-like uninstall with long press!
They even have an eris running it on their home page!
I got it on my eris and its smooth as butter

Very cool share. Switch between adw ex and go launcher. Have you checked the messaging and weather apps? Thanks again for the share . Looks good with miui icons.
Great launcher. Worked very smooth unlike others.

I love Go. I had just paid for ADW Ex when someone here mentioned it. Very clean and smooth. I especially like the folders where you can see the contents before opening.

Go launcher is the best. Has a lot of great features all free.

been using Go launcher for about 3 days now. Seems to work good. Haven't had a problem out of it..
Well, I installed it, then simifolders, one of the two made a load of widgets disappear from my list. :\
*edit* must have been go launcher. Updated it and the widgets are back on the list.
Yeah, I'm using the messaging app too, haven't checked out the weather...I'll have to.
If anyone is interested my new Dark Horse v0.5 MM theme will theme this launcher please read the info concerning this in DH post. Link to the DH thread is in my sig line.
Enjoy tell me what you think. You don't need to apply all the Dark Horse theme if you don't want to. Using MM just apply the subtheme com.gau.go.launcher.apk and MM will do the rest, remember to reboot Go launcher must be in the systerm/app folder for it to work instructions on how to do this are in the thread.
hey all,
I am running the tiamat hammerhead rom... I like it but right now there are not too many great themes for the xoom. A few color changing ones and the touchwiz port which i did like, but im down for something more. The best way to go about this short of doing my own theme is to get a good home launcher and use some custom animations and icon packs...
Here is the rub.. A lot of the home launchers are too phone-ish.. If that makes sense. Any suggestions? I was partial to ADW ex launcher but i looove the stock launching set-up. I mostly would like to maybe change animations, speeds, etc, but most importantly use icon packs. Any ideas for me or suggestions on good launchers with a stock home screen feel? I dont want my xoom to have a home screen like a giant phone lol

Lol i guess that will be the case. No one has any advice...
I would recommend ADW EX, but since it hasn't been updated in 3 months and isn't fully compatible with 3.2...
Yeah adw ex doesn't work well with 3.2 at the moment. I believe the older adw (non ex) works but u gotta find an .apk for that

Not true, imo, ADW EX works great, so smooth with my config and I like having 6 screens. ADW settings is mostly disabled, meaning I can't change the size of icons, basically. But everything else works really well.

Yeah thy made a 3.2 compatible version today... Still not all the way there in my opinion and quirky as anderweb releases tend to be at first until they find all the bugs. Props to them for the effort but i am still not sold. Gonna have to just try the stargate theme coming out soon! Which looks badass!
I use SPB Shell as my home replacement. My problem is I cant set the stock home app as default. When I hit the home button it always goes to SPB Shell even when I have the stock home app set to default and have cleared SPB Shell as the default. I use the Home switcher app from the market and set the stock app as the default. When I clear the default on SPB Shell and hit the home button the stock home app doesnt even show up as an option. Is anyone else having this issue and does any one know of a fix?
The same thing happened for me with launcherpro to go back to stock i had to uninstall LP. I actually like the stock launcher better for the first time ever than LP.
It may be just me, but my screen looks much more vibrant when using SPB Shell. The colors actually look sharper. I have shown it to others and they think the same also.

Did you just abandon Launcher Pro all together or did you figure out a way to fix it?
What about the home switcher app in the market.

First off for what SPB Shell 3D costs of course I'm going to install it, for principal if nothing else. I do however really like it. Secondly I want the option and ability to switch between home replacements if I want to.
has anyone using other launchers like launcher pro go launcher or adw, tried to freeze the stock launcher. i know that most roms come with a market launcher already loaded and therefore there is no stock launcher.
So any ideas if running a market launcher, that freezing the stock launcher would be ok or not
any ideas
There is an app called Homesmack that fixes the issue with the launcher defaults.
