Has anyone tried ADW ex on the aria with 6.1.1?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Cyanogen already uses ADW luancher, although i havnt tried ADW ex yet i have no reason to suspect that it wouldnt work
Works great for me its essentially the standard adw just a newer version.
Id actually say its a bit faster even with screen animations & 3d app drawer. Hell it even works great on my girlfriend's backflip

i works greaaaatt
Been using it since it came out.
I like it alot compared to the old ADW.
bought it it's great, trying to delete free ADW.
I've used it without problems. However, I prefer Launcher Pro - seems faster to me.

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.

Hi all just wondering for those using launcher pro does launcher pro freeze when you first start up your phone
The launcher is fine once you perform a force close so it is not too annoying
Still it would be good if I can change the situation
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
that happened for me too, on CM7 RC2, it had to force close to be responsive again... right now i'm on CM7 RC4 and that never happened again, also try to check if you are on the last version of launcherpro 0.8.4.1... because maybe the lastest updates of launcherpro fixes that weirdness.
I have the same problem with launcher pro (paid version too) on cm7 rc4 so no thats not the solution lol
Yeah I'm on the latest nscollab which is just cm7 rc4 and the newest version of launcher pro
Thanks for the suggestion though

I have the same problem, but I wanted to change the ROM...
I had the same issue with the stock rom. It appears to be LP related.

This has happened with every single ROM I've ever used - also with my Hero - def LP bug.

Good to know that it is a common problem I guess all I CB do is wait for an update
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Always had this problem, with my Nexus One, Desire HD and now Nexus S. On booting, LP freezes with a black screen for about 30s or so.
I've just given up with it and switched to Zeam, cos I was getting pretty tired of it.
The defect,occurs when certain apps are installed on SD.
Resolved to move app to the internal memory.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
I have all my apps on internal, but the problem still happens.
Use Zeam launcher its faster than any other launcher i've used so far
This issue is what made me switch to ADW. It really began to get frustrating.
I have this problem also . . . doesn't happen all the time though. Recently it stopped backing up settings to the SD card also
I have been having this problem as well. After a reboot ( due to cm7 being unstable ) I have a black screen and you would think the phone was crashed if not for BLD buttons working on the bottom and the volume rocker making sounds when pressed, after about 3 mins desktop and bar show up.
Its been getting worse and worse. I have never used any launcher but LPP but I switched to ADW as its getting really bad, I just switched back as I can't stand adw but I think I either have to find a new launch, get used to adw, or something as LPP is killing me everytime I have to reboot.
I am going to cross post this to LPP forums as well as I thought I was alone but obviously if there is a thread on it, then I am not alone. Here is hoping a fix is found as I really like LPP.
Facts: no app's stored on SD, no widgets installed on SD.
Cheers,
Switch to go launcher ex
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
adw launcher is probably the best all around. i love it
Just updated to cm 7 well the newest nscollab the problem is not as bad now
It's wite finicky
I use zeam on my x10 but I like the Widgets from lpp more
Adw... just looks odd to me
Go is not bad but too iPhone like
Regina lags..as you can see I've tried a fair few launchers
Side note lpp would be perfect if it has gestures and screen organisation like if you can rearrange screen order
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
So I figured out my issue, I was using the BFS sched. from netarch and once I switched to CFS things went to acceptable levels, I say acceptable as its still not as good as ADW but its good enough that I can use the launcher I prefer, lets just hope he stays up on the updates still waiting for the rewrite and with his last post of themeing widgets for this version I am afraid we are a bit lower on the queue.
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
I just stick to stock until someone makes a launcher for honeycomb

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!
so I just got the update today and I'm very happy. However, I can't get LP to work on ICS. It closes everytime I try to select it and I get the msg "unfortunately, LP has stopped." Anyone experience this problem?
Its just not compatible with ics and no info on if it ever will be since the dev hasn't updated it in ages.

Go Launcher EX > Launcher Pro... By miles..
Haven't had any issues. In fact, I went back to using LP instead of ADW Ex because the latest ADW Ex update jacked up the dock and the older version has a dumb looking bar at the top of the screen, probably some weird honeycomb code. Even though LP hasn't been updated in 7 months, it's still working fine for me on ICS.
Just downloaded Go Launcher, thanks. I've been stuck on LP for so long bc of the widgets. Haven't customized my Nexus ina loooong time but ever since I got ICS, it feels like I have a new phone to mess around with lol.

If you want something similar to LP's widgets to use with Go Launcher check out APW. Free and Paid version. Or use GoWidgets.. Solid widget set though. - https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5yZHIud2lkZ2V0cy5jb3JlIl0.
I also used Launcher Pro Plus on GB stock rom.
Actually on ICS is stock launcher the best - and instead of LPP widgets you can use "Android Pro Widgets" free on market (looks exactly like from LPP)
Launcher Pro will crash on ICS if you use the calendar widget. It should work fine if you don't use that widget - that worked for me.

On Gingerbread, Launcher Pro is still the best and smoothest launcher. I really hope that Fede has been working on re-writing the whole app and making it compatible for ICS.
Why would u want another launcher on ics?

To make the top row useable, limit the number of homescreens, custom number of rows and columns on homescreen, resizable icons, fully resizable widgets, etc.
Go launcher is the worst.

Because all of the android stock launchers are freaking butt ugly. Especially the ICS version. It's no wonder why htc uses sense and Samsung touchwiz. Because if they tried to sell phones with stock android launchers they wouldn't sell many phones. Believe it out not, most of the phone buying world feels this way. For the most part,only the hardcore android fan boys like the stock launcher.

Just use Nova launcher -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389071
based on ICS stock launcher + lot of features (Docks, Grid,...etc) and Uber fast.
PS: And works when GPU rendering is on while GO launcher got artefacts/Gfx bugs.

Why fix it if it ain't broke? Compared to the latest versions of ADW Launcher EX and GoLauncher EX, LauncherPro runs way smoother and lag-free on my gf's G2 with GB 2.3.4 and my Nook Color with GB 2.3.7.

It cannot even change page order now, and the re-build was said last year and what we get now? Not even a word about it.
I know we cannot demand anything from a dev so I just switched to another launcher
