LauncherPro Beta

This post is targeted towards all the leakers out there. If you're still looking for a Nexus One-style home replacement app, look no further than LauncherPro Beta. It has an app launcher drawer with a *very* smooth 3D fly-in effect, a la the Nexus One. Home screen scrolling stutter is also eliminated, and overall the app just flies performance-wise.
I'm sure many of you have heard of it; this thread is for the people who haven't. Please no flaming.
EDIT: You can also "pinch-zoom" the home screen to get a helicopter view - just like the Sense UI.

Yeah its a decent little application, However you should probably post this in themes and apps as it doesn't relate to development. Not flaming just saying you posted in the wrong forum.

I agree with you that it doesn't really belong here, but I was hoping to ward off a lot of the people complaining about not having root and how they can't make their phone look like a Nexus One. Maybe my efforts are futile...

I use LauncherPro on my Eris. I have one tip to throw out there for root users who want to use this... the app doesn't (yet) have a feature to customize what the dock icons do. And on a Sense-based ROM, you will probably be getting the HTC Messaging app by default with no way to switch it (at least that's what happened to me). That's fine if you use that, but I only use Handcent SMS, for example.
So I had to use ADB to rename /system/app/Mms.apk to Mms.bak... no adverse affects seen from that yet. Handcent took over automatically. Downside being you can't use the HTC app anymore unless you reverse the change.

Yeah all you have to do is remove Mms.apk and Browser.apk and you get handscent and xscope as defaults (if u have them installed of course). Not technically custom, but still what I wanted

Try updating to his newest release. 0.2.0. I have mine themed and since his newest release on 5.19, my sms opens to chomp. should work with handscent as well, I have not deleted my default sms.
hope that helps.

I like...has anyone confirmed sense widgets working with it yet?

Sense Widgets do not appear as an option in adding onto the launcher pages.

sense widgets will not work with launcherpro. it is a stock home replacement. only android widgets work. however, flip clock and weather widget is an app that mimics the htc flipclock. you have to install the ht7 theme for the flipclock and weather icons. looks identical. either that or beautiful widgets. there are no other apps created that mimic the rest of the widgets tho... yet. however there are a few android widgets that will suffice tho. use them to your own liking. I wish htc would create Senseui replacement app. Meaning, open source skinning for sense ui. its one of the main reasons why i rooted my phone. We all like the functionality of those widgets, but they wont make them open source. that would discourage many from rooting and voiding thier warranties. id pay for that app and themes as well!

yea, doesnt belong here, but launcherpro IS SWEET!!!!!!!

I really liked LauncherPro Beta... but i also fell in love with HelixLauncher mostly because you can customize the bottom bar for any apps that you want and its also free on the market

The developer of that app is actually working on updating it to be able to customize the bottom dock. I did a lil reading here on the boards & found a way to re route the messaging shortcut to handcent. Works like a charm. Til then ill still rock with sense until that update comes along. If your rooted and using ported hero rom, try adw launcher. Its the best so far. Now it has the customizable bottom dock. Its A flashable file so use at your own risk. And do not forget to do nandroid backup.

Its called Weather Widgets and its made by the "Android Apps" people. It looks JUST LIKE the sense Clock/Weather widget and functions the same way too. Its what I use with the Launcher Pro Beta. Looks just like sense. I believe its a paid app though.
Also, Weather Widgets (yr.no) by Thomware is very close to sense also.

Just installed LauncherPro Beta, and I LOVE it. Now that you can change what the shortcuts on the bottom go to, I believe I'm going to completely abandon HelixLauncher. This one is WAY better.

I use LauncherPro Beta. I love it. Customize the dock, change screens
Pretty fast too. MFLOPS 3.34 @ 1.62 sec, 3.358 @ 1.61 sec, 3.323 @ 1.63.
Not too bad. OC to 768.

Is there a way to replace the stock launcher home (not rosie) with this launcher been trying all day....i really want to be a pro and put the new launcher in system/apps as opposed to data/app
is this possible ?
Edit: nevermind I got it

ADW
Guys, ADW launcher is in the market now. just search adw
I find this blows even launcherpro away
edit: and it's free too, just like launcher.
I just installed adw a few days ago, switching from launcherpro, so trust me, I don't have anything against launcherpro

ADW is pretty cool. Was using Launcher Pro. Think I'll use ADW for a while.

Professional looking homescreen

I came over to the android world from a HTC Tilt II running WM 6.5. Has anyone mimicked the Sense/TouchFLO layout? It looks very professional and sleek... I would love to make my Android home screen on my Captivate look similar to it. I love the android OS by far, but I would love suggestions on how to make it look more "professional". Thanks

Try Beautiful Widgets for clock and weather widgets. http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=beautiful+widgets
LauncherPro for custom docks and icons, an upgrade to LauncherPro Plus will get you htc sense style bookmark, contacts and facebook widgets. http://www.appbrain.com/app/launcherpro/com.fede.launcher
LauncherPro is IMHO the best replacement launcher www.launcherpro.com

I appreciate the help, however I have already purchased BW and LP. I just want that more "professional" feel, as previously stated, and I can't get that out of anything that I have tried. But again, thank you for your input.

You could try ADW Launcher, I've never really used it my self.
But you download custom made themes, i'm sure there must be numerous sense style themes available, but your not going to get sense style widgets.
There are numerous clock widgets available that are similar to sense clock widget http://www.appbrain.com/app/sense-analog-clock-widget-4x2/factory.widgets.SenseClock

I don't think he necessarily wants a Sense look, or he probably would have gotten an Aria or gone to a different network
As far as professional, sleek, clean.. the things you can do to your Android home screen are boundless. It's all personal preference. If you want it to look like HTC Sense, go with either LauncherPro Plus (for the widgets) or ADW.Launcher (for the navbar and icons). Also, I recommend Weather and Toggle Widgets paid app, if you want the pretty HTC Sense flip clock with the weather (get the H7C skins for it).
Personally though, my homescreen is TypoClock with four of the apps I use most (Facebook, Messaging, Music, and Faves.. not very professional, but whatever, I'm in high school ). And there's other widgets you can get to make it pretty, like Tajm and BattStatt are nice. If you have any Photoshop skill (or hell, even Paint), you should make a mock-up of what you actually want your homescreen to look like, that way we can give you more relevant suggestions.
And thanks for joining the Android army!

Get the signals23 themed launcher pro apk!! It looks very sleek & professional. You can find it in the ANDROID THEMES (not droid inc themes) section here on xda. Play around with desktop visualizer alongside various different icon sets. I share the same intent. I came from blackberry storm earlier this year and I would love a rom to be developed, that mimics the bbos, the same way miui rom from china mimics apple os4. I hate all the bb themes on the market right now. But I've become somewhat fulfilled with signals 23's launcherpro themed apk.
Oh and check out the "post your homescreen thread." See what you like here and there and get some inspiration.

Try "Slidescreen and Slidescreen Pro" in the market. They're home replacements and, imho, are very professional and clean looking. If you use all of the functions integrated it's even better. You can also try "Executive Assistant" which can be a widget for all of your info or a lockscreen replacement. Both are pretty professional looking.
EDIT* I'm not affiliated with either of these devs.. I just own both and enjoy the way they clean up the look of my phone.

[APP] ADW Launcher EX

Ok, so I've been a big Launcher Pro fan for the past few months now after using the original ADW launcher previously on my N1. Anyway, still cruise the Nexus forums (still have my N1 and love it!) and saw a vid posted a few days back of a crazy new ADW launcher due for release and guess what, it's here and it's on another level compared to anything we have had before. I bet the guys at SPB shell are in bits right now as there whole USP just got trumped.
Just been playing with the configuration options for the last 40mins and it seems that I'm still at the tip of the iceberg. Some of the 3D effects are just stunning.
Anyway it's over at AndroidPit and obviously on the market.
http://www.androidpit.com/en/android/market/apps/app/org.adwfreak.launcher/ADWLauncher-EX
Check it out ASAP, there is a video link on the market/pit link.
Regards.

Just installed and I'm starting to mess around with it but wow!
There's menus in menus in menus.....
There's a lot of options :O

That's one of the reasons I switched over, as LP was always the faster launcher, but the new EX version is blazing. The most appealing part is the 3D home screen transitions, which once again are blazingly fast. The only things which have slowed it down are buggy widgets. I do miss the LP widgets but have still got the old Pure widgets which are a great replacement and highly customizable.
Overall I'm very impressed with this revision of ADW.
Regards.

I find the home screen transitions very fast too, I still think the app drawer is a bit laggy though, which is where Launcher Pro has always had the upper hand for me speed wise, but I love the catalogs on ADW.

i might try this after i get bored with CM7 and the default launcher

Can't we use all the widgets like eg. the clock from sense in adw also ?
I can't figure out how to anyway...
I think the new adw ex is fantastic, but without the widgets, using it make no sense
But on eg. my S/E X10 it would be great I think.

Sense widgets only work on Sense. I don't mind at all though because aosp may not be as pretty but out sure is fast.
This new launcher is awesome. It's like adw on steroids. It's a pity I just purchased Launcher Pro. That app is good but seems kind of stagnant, development wise.
Nice widgets but you can't even rearrange the home screens which is annoying if you want to add more screens and keep the one with the clock in the centre.

Great app after buying adw launcher all that time ago and just brought launcher ex wow just so great. Its nice to see new animation come with it. Just make you're home screen come alive a bit more
I think that what first got my attention. With sense and the weather animation just add a bit of life to your phone.

Look for a similar one on the market, Beautiful Widgets might be your thing.
I like this one: SiMi Clock.

Ok I know everyone is asking about the sense clock widget on this launcher but we have good reason to ask this, cuz when you look in the market at this app and u look at the screenshots provided, it looks like they are using the sense clock! I am using beautiful widgets and I have looked for one that looks similar but they all still don't look as good as the sense clock. So I'm curious myself if it is the sense clock or did they find a sweet skin that's looks identical to the sense clock?

That's because they're probably using Fancy Widget.
The old version was an exact copy of HTC Flip Clock, so HTC made them remove it. Unfortunately the new version you can now find on the Market is different and doesn't look as good.
I'll add a Dropbox link later if I still have the original apk at on my home PC (at work right now).
You should also be able to find it here on XDA if you're good at using the search function

Has anyone tried using new themes with EX? I'm finding that launcher graphics don't line up in this version when they worked fine in the CM version of ADW. Not sure if the spec for themes has changed?

That'd be sick dude!! i find myself undecided and switching back and forth between Sense and adw b/c i love the flip clock with the animated weather forecast and whatnot

Loving the new launcher too (was a bit sceptical at first since Launcher Pro was faster than the original ADW Launcher)....but this one is fast and 'fancy' with all its animations!
Does anyone know a way we can have custom dock backgrounds like in Launcher Pro? It’s the only thing I miss!

New FREE 3D Launcher-Regina

Hey guys, there a new 3D launcher available called Regina. It looks really amazing, and puts SPB mobile shell to shame. Best of all, its FREE!!!!. ill test it and post a feedback very soon. in the mean time do give it a try
"Regina 3D Launcher
A launcher that uses pure 3D graphics has arrived.
Regina 3D Launcher has exciting and dynamic 3D effects for your pleasure.
Browsing workspaces, creating shortcuts, and removing widgets have gotten a little bit more fun.
And that's not all, we have more great features that you might be interested.
Now experience the excitement and fun you can have with all the cool features in Regina.
Video demo of Regina Launcher can be found on YouTube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXhtxecPHr8
* Highlighted Features
- Intuitive 3D workspace browser
- Separate wallpaper for each workspace
- Secret workspaces where you can hide some of your app shortcuts and widgets for your privacy
- Regina widgets (full 3D widgets)
- All widgets and shortcuts can be positioned freely without much restrction in workspaces
- Uninstall apps from workspace directly
- Pleasant visual effects
* Notes
- First of all, select "Version x.x.x" item in Regina Settings menu and update all app in list.
- Supports Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread and tested on Galaxy Tab too.
- Live Wallpaper is not supported because of performance issue.
- Because Regina 3D Launcher is pure 3D graphics, your device must have a decent graphics chip to gain usable performance."
EDIT: Here's a video of some of the other improvements that the developers are working on:
http://www.youtube.com/user/NemusTech#p/a/u/2/HQu53fuzarE

first impressions are really good. the transitions between home screens are brilliantly fluid. the flipping of the digital clock is smooth most of the time but sometimes it does get a little choppy, but its easily overlooked. some niggly bugs, but they are easily overlooked. excellent eye candy. not many add-ons yet, but the available ones are brilliant with superbly smooth transitions and good animation. unfortunately everytime u launch an app ie text messaging, and go back to your home screen, it takes a while (ie a brief lag) before u get there. slightly annoying, but its nt sthg tht'll make u uninstall this otherwise magnificent launcher.
the weather application does not have very many cities yet, but im pretty sure all these minor things will be fixed in newer updates. the menu is a horizontal style transition with numbered pages, as opposed to the standard android style vertical scrolling. the translucent menu means the home screen is visible in the background...a rather nice touch
the theme application has some very pretty wallpapers to it. sadly though, i cant seem to synchronize the theme of the home screens with the lock screen, and unfortunately i cant seem to use the wallpapers that are already on my phone for the home screens. not a major issue, but a lil annoying.
all in all, i think for a free launcher, it certainly gives launcher pro, and SPB mobile shell, which are both paid apps a run for their money.
there is also word that it is open source, for themes and such, so devs take note
Final Word: in my personal opinion, i find this the best launcher i have used so far. and i do hope that the updates and bug fixes will be released sooner to make it even better.
EDIT: This application is especially brilliant for people looking for a good launcher but are unable to purchase applications from the Android Market due to the fact they come from countries in which google does not distribute applications just yet: ie Malaysia, Indonesia, China etc.

Thanks I'll test this

from what i hear this particular launcher is open source. so you could very well design your own widgets

I tried it...but it was slightly slower than Motoblur and LauncherPro. It is ok to live with but gets annoying after a while.

Launchers

So I've been using Go launcher ex, and like it. I've used in the past LP+, and liked it.
I was pondering on purchasing SPB shell 3D launcher after the couple of highly regarded reviews.
So I started looking at some videos of other launchers. I found Nemus launcher and Claystone launcher to look pretty cool. I tried Regina launcher after watching a video and didn't like it at all.
Would like to see other launchers others have used that they have liked or didn't like.

modded TW launcher for all devices.. MY FAvorite... one of CHoice... recommended
QQLauncher.. pretty good
MIUI LAuncher 3.1.. just like miui no app drawer dont like the style... but runs well
netfront lifescreen.. cool idea... not super useful or intuitive
he Launcher 1/ he launcher 2... can make it look like stock GB or Froyo or any flavor of sense or Touch wiz
Itching Thumbs... like web os with task switching and killing
just to name a few.... just google em... to lazy to provide links and pics... haha

I'm using Go Launcher Extreme right now and think its the best thing ever.
SPB Shell 3D is a serious waste of money. Its all eye candy with limited features and I regret buying it every time I go to the Market.
LauncherPro was nice for its time, but feels and looks outdated.
ADW is similar to LauncherPro in this regard, but the EX version shows promise.

lol i use the spb shell 3d launcher and its juuuust fine for me. smooth and fast and very cool.

Free:
Adw- great dependable launcher. Has improved so much in performance. My recommendation for free launchers. If you get into the settings this launcher will go toe to toe with any free launcher.
LauncherPro-was my launcher of choice for a very long time but its developement has slowed almost to a halt. Still probably one of the smoothest launchers on market, especially for lower end devices due to the memory settings.
GoLauncher-eye candy. Its smooth and has plenty of nice animations and has themes. But, it lacks in performance compared to some of the others. Buts it not so bad that you shouldn't give it a try. And its a Go app, so you wont have to worry about support. These guys put in work.
Payed:
LauncherPro Plus-same thing but adds ability to resize Widgets and adds some nice themeable Widgets built in.
Spb shell 3D: $15!!!! But hey, think about it this way, it basically has a handful of apps you MIGHT have otherwise payed for with a different launcher built in and integrated seamlessly. Its beautiful and its super smooth. It puts itself in memory and appears to stay there so there's never any lag. If you're a constant themer or on a ramen noodle budget , avoid this one. I personally love it (and I went in skeptical about it).
A final note: those are just the ones I've tried for any amount of time and can remember. try em all. Mess around with em. On a high end device like this you don't need to worry about which one uses a little more memory. If you had a lower end device and a launcher you tried before didn't run so well, try it again on this device. The Thrill is beast enough to run any launcher well. If the launcher doesn't run well on this phone then its just a poor app. On my Aria I had to run launcherpro to get the best performance because I could tweak its memory setting to optimize it for that device and it actually out performed adw. On the Thrill adw blows lpp away performance wise. All these are better than the stock launcher IMO.

I just downloaded that SPB 3D launcher and it is QUITE sexy. It's more than I would ever need at one time (world time, weather with current temperature, recent texts in a rolo-dex form, etc) but it was quite responsive. It DOES take up more memory than some would have you believe (try 60+ megs).
Go Launcher EX seemed to be everything I wanted in a launcher. Responsive, able to customize anything, and the ability to skin widgets was very nice.

I've tried it spb launcher for free..
I suggest to download it from a torrent.. put it in your sd card, turn on airplane mode, and then play with it for a while.. see how you like it.. The reason why you turn it on airplane mode is because the android market will detect that you did not buy the item so you wont be able to use it.

Ahhh, the use of the word warez is waning. Nice to see it again. Hi warez how you been?
But, yeah, this is not a place for warez or warez guides. We develop and release open source and free only, I am sure everyone would like to keep xda as clean as possible since this is sort of our playground. No broken bottles of warez by the slidez please.

i REALLY like qq launcher, its fast ans looks more sophistiacated than the any of the others. regina is too, but it takes up a LOT of memory so its kinda laggy on the thrill.

I think the Guy who mentioned downloading spb for free was just suggesting a way to try it out so it wont be such a huge waste of money if you dont like it, as someone else had mentioned before because it is a bit expensive at $15 for a launcher
