nova launcher!!!

Been playing around with Apex for awhile now but the Xperia S Launcher has caught my eye. Probably going to give that a go for a bit and see how I like it.

Apex !

Seems like its Nova vs Apex at this point.
I personally use Nova because it comes with AOKP, I like Apex too, but I haven't sat down and fully customized it.

Launcher of choice (atm) is Apex (Free).
It's almost perfect except that it doesn't allow you to drag-and-drop home screens. I heavily customised my main screen, before switching from 5 home screens to 3. Needless to say, it was irritating to setup everything once again.
I tried Nova, but the free version doesn't allow you to hide apps from the drawer. Deal-breaker.

why the hate on golauncher?
too many things to configure? (what ISN"T there you can customize?)
scrollable lower dock for you minimalists?
Dock notifications?
An entire suite of apps and widgets to match?
Free?
In the market?

Mine is pretty simple. Minimal apps, cm7 no background, I've been meaning to switch to maybe a black or black and white theme.
When I do use a background it's gotta be one of shift's snappapers from the Evo section.

@gonzo - is that your lockscreen? How do you get the notifications of what is/isn't turned on to appear there? Also, what icon pack is that? It's similar to the nice white one I have (I use Nova Launcher, but icon pack is from ADW - ADW.Elegant)
Cheers
Just changed to this one.

they usually are more efficient, faster and better customizable. no they dont eat up ram, they save it, and no they do not affeft battery. just download a third party launcher and set is as ur default launcher. ull know wat to do when u download one.

If I'm not using Trebuchet, I'm using Nova. I've been on Nova for a while now and it's definitely my favorite 3rd party launcher besides Trebuchet.
Depends on what my mood is... (and my current theme)
Mainly its Apex Pro but occasionally when I'm fed up with icons not being themed, I switch to Nova Prime for a while...
Buzz launcher. Nice and customizable laucher.

It's the only app I've actually bought for any smartphone. Although I do miss the circles widget. Does anyone know of a way to remove or circumvent the launcher requirement?

Probably framework dependant or someone probably would've done it. I'm with you on Nova, only app I've ever bought ever. Best decision yet.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
I use Holo Launcher Pro. Only Pro launcher I've paid for. Plenty of options, ways to change icon/text sizes (damn helpful when DPI tweaking), uses icon themes for other launchers. It also has a GB version for older phones so I can have the same looking launcher on my Defy running CM7 or my Atrix HD running PAC 4.3 and anything in between.

Nope. Tried and it checks for the Moto Launcher. If it was possible, we'd all know about it. Good news is the Ultra Launcher scales DPI properly...err...better....so it doesn't suck with PAC now.

We all have brand new phones and while it will take us sometime to get it set up the way we like I thought we could inspire each other by sharing our setup so here we go.
Still stock, for now and enjoying it.

Interesting to see you say that. I've been struggling trying to settle on a good messaging app between Verizon's message+, hangouts or stock messaging app. I have actually been using the message+ app for a while because I'm able to send video clips of kids to grandparents and any time I try with one of the other messaging apps it says the video you are trying to send is too big. What makes you not like the message+ app?
