Don't think you can unless the chief puts the tweak in
And there lots to choose from but I like nova launcher

That's my #1 complaint about the TW launcher. Stupid hard to find app draw listing. Of course you can do it in a long list, but then you only get one app per line.

Scrolling Apps?

When you go into apps, I have seen a screen where the apps curve up and down the screen. I have a screen shot of what I talking about. How do you get the apps to scroll?

you need a launcher that supports it
froyo launcher
gingerbread launcher
launcher pro
adw ex (dont know if the free one offers it)
Browse through the last few pages of Cezar's Yin ROM thread, he posted the .apk for it, no specific launcher is needed.

The free ADW Launcher does indeed support scrolling widgets. I have a contacts widget that scrolls and it works fine on ADW Launcher.

hey, i was wondering whats the best launcher for the 2x.
so far ive tried adw, launcher pro, go launcher ex (still using)
go launcher ex is still the smoothest of them all, but im begining to think it uses quite some battery, what are your experiences ?
I'm using Launcher Pro and I really like it. So far it's been very smooth and I've had no excessive battery draining from using it.
I haven't had time to try out any others yet, my O2x is still a baby

I'm using the LG launcher
Go launcher ex was the best, until after a few nightly builds it went extremley laggy, now on adw ex and so far so good.

GO Launcher EX.
Tried a couple of others, but GO offers the best mix of being fast and flexible.
I'm a fan of ADW EX. Tons of customization available.
im on adw ex right now as well. buts its laggy (not much but still) compared to go launcher ex. lol. and im missing some customizations.. but the theme stuff is quite nice
the bad thing is that i only like launchers with vertical scroll in app drawer
LG home would suffice, but the app drawer is the only place that launcher DOESNT lag at. so lame.
i'm using launcher7 donate
i like it , simple and fast
Im using MX Home and realy impresed with performance, realy nice home app , but what im realy waiting to try out is this one

When/where can we get this?

Using go launcher ex with no lag or issues whatsoever.
I'd recommend to all others.
Plus additional downloads of go dialer and go contacts are also worth a download if you're running a custom rom.
few screenshots of launchers i have used so far-
1)ADW launcher EX
2)spark launcher
3)zune launcher
4)7 launcher
5)slide screen launcher
6)Touchwiz 4 launcher

Where did you get some of these launchers? I can't seem to find all of them on the market. Which ones did you like?
I'm using Go Launcher at the moment after everybody here recommended it and I like it a lot more than Launcher Pro. Smooth and very customizable.

currently i am using TW4...simple reason being is that,i have been samsung user through out...so i am more comfertable with touchwiz
and about your querry "where to find it"...
just googled it mate u'll get plenty...try it out...cheers
Another interesting Launcher is Regina 3d.
I don't like it enough to skip my beloved GO Launcher EX, but it's an interesting concept.

Thanks man, I'll try a few of those out. I'm a huge fan of the WP7 interface and live tiles but Launcher 7 is not quite smooth enough for me
I'm going to have a try of the Zune launcher, that looks pretty cool. Thanks.

1) functional costumised lockscreen
2)WP7 lockscreen !!!
3)samsung galaxy s-II lockscreen
[all the lockscreens are on LG O2X ofcorse !!!]
after using adw ex i went back to go launcher. its just the best (smoothest)

Any ICS launcher with folders in app drawer?

The only one I could find is go launcher but its laggy on ICS rocket rom 1.5? Any suggestions?.... Thanks... Envy

Go to the market and give Go Launcher Ex a try. Best Launcher out there IMO and it is free.
Folders in App drawer, on home screens and in quick launch area as well.
Claude H.
Have you found any other launchers that can do this except go launcher ex? To bad you cant hide the drawer when using it on tablets.
Try SSLauncher, folders were just added, they're called parcels.

Not compatible with my transformer prime according to google play. Tried it on my galaxy 2 but like go launcher ex better on the phone. no other alternatives for tablets?
Apex launcher, its like stock

Could you tell me how to create a folder in the drawer? Desktop is easy.
would be interested in this too using Apex on my phone.

[Q] Which Launcher support widgets resize?

Dear all,
Iam looking for a launcher for my Note which support widgets resize, since I have many widgets are 4x1 only?
I know that the best launchers are ADW, LauncherPro and Go Launcher EX, so which one does that ? and which one is better?
Go launcher ex is working fine for me
But really you better install them all and see what works the best for your needs

Iam trying Go Launcher now
still have a problem with 1 widget for prayer time pro, still does not fill the screen, other widgets are ok, looks like it is from the app it self
iam using Official stock rom with root and franco kernel #9
Go Launcher EX, right ?
not all widget support resize for sure
i am using "My Prayer" and its widget won't resize also
Well, I am new owner of SG Note. Before, I had SGS and used ADW Launcher Ex. But on NOTE, i have some lags when I use ADW Launcher EX (2 screen with widgets). Could You recommend me some "not-lagging" launcher (except TW - this doesn't have laggs)?
did not like Go Launcher EX because Iam missing the Galaxy Note default launcher widgets such as Month and Task which I need them, will try something else
I use Apex Launcher on ICS & it changes the size of Widgets.

ssLauncher manages most of the stock resizable widgets.

[Q] Ice Cream Sandwich alternative launchers?

Hello fellow SGN users,
Now that the official Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 has been released to SGN users primarily in Europe, I would like to find out if there are any alternative launchers that is compatible with ICS or more importantly launchers that strictly run on ICS?
I've seen NOVA and APEX launchers and going to give them a try so i was just wondering if any of you know of any other alternatives?
those are the best ics ones
been testing them both on and off myself, not sure which one i like best, but i dont like that i cant use the s-widgets with them i really like s-planner calender any alternative to that?
I hear GO launcher works.
I bought both Nova and Apex Launcher. I like Apex the best but they are very similar and are hard to tell apart.
Do Apex or Nova allow you to hide the dock?
I'm using ADW EX on 2.3.6 and don't use a dock.
I'm hoping some of the random lagginess switching between screens will disappear once I upgrade to ICS, but if it doesn't I might have to look for another launcher.
Thanks,
Rich

I am using ADW. I hate the "new" ADW EX. Flashed official ICS today. ADW ran awful. Very laggy. App drawer scroll kept hanging and the touchscreen was nearly unresponsive on the ADW screens. One widget kept failing to update as well.
Long story short, I flashed back to GB with Franco.kernel #10. Works flawlessly again!
I just don't see any improvement with ICS. Samsung's version looks like GB anyway.

I use GoLauncher EX of the simple reason that it enables 8 rows with 10 columns. I can't get that with either Apex or Nova (they limit at 7 x 7 at most).
GL EX is also pretty similar to good ole LauncherPro and since that has been a trusty launcher for a long period of time, I certainly prefer to have that functionality intact.
But I will give Apex a new chance immediately when 8 x 10 is enabled for the home screen since it is good otherwise but just 7 rows destroys my layout.
Almost without exception, any launcher that works on GB will work in ICS.
i tried nova and apex.. and they are good..
but i don't like them since i can't make folders on the app drawer...

i am using TSF SHELL ! its more smooth and eye candy lol
Of the ICS themed launchers (tried Nova and Apex), I always go back to Nova cos it's smoother for me. Always notice slight jitters on Apex, which is a pity, cos I also quite like Apex's functionality.
(I'm using Nova Prime (paid)).
Apex Launcher as a system app. Damn good in here...
Download Apex Launcher, rename to Apexlauncher, copy to sd card. Use root explorer copy to system/app set permission to

what's the difference between installing apex and your procedure?
Can any1 give me the link for the stock ics launcher? I don't want to have touchwiz or any other thing, just the pure android ics launcher
I am testing Miui Home Launcher, a lot of themes are avaible.
My favorite is Go Launcher ex and SS Launcher.
