Launchers

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.

well...look mate...my personal favr8 would be ADW launcher EX.
but the thing is,most of them are prty good,soo...then everything boils down to ur taste...
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.

[if u like WP7's over all look then if u want u can try out few themes of widget locker lockscreens(few possiblities i've uploaded down for your refrence) as well just to get the whole feel of WP7 on ur 'android' !!! just a suggestion]
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)

Best Launcher

What are your favorite Launchers? Only ICS please
Based on customization, smoothness, and eye-candyness

can I say GO LAUNCHER ??

The stock launcher. Gotta love those shortcut folders.

P.S: no stock launcher

Nova launcher seems promising, but I would say trebuchet is a perfect fit for its stability right now.

Nova

Nova launcher

Nova has the best settings and stuff, so NOVA for me. I needs me my custom icons. Apex Launched will be promising though... it might even become better than NOVA. With the plans they have for it, Apex should become the CM9 Launcher. Why? Because honestly Trebuchet is sucking so much right now. You can hardly do anything with it and I haven't heard any news from it... If it is going to stay CM9 launcher it has major work to do.
Nexus S - CyberGR Hybrid ICS (5), Matrix Kernel (15)

Another vote for nova. Great launcher and only getting better
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

GO Launcher is by far my favourite of the ones I have used.
I have used ADW, Helix, LauncherPro and Zeam Launcher but have not tried Nova yet.

I really like launcher pro. Not very fancy but quite functional.

I'm using Nova, while it is very fast and smooth, it does have way too less customizations.

Apex is the fastest one then nova after that when apex gets a few more opinions it could be the beat of all of them right now Nova got more customization but apexs is faster
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

Definitely the Trebuchet launcher if not the stock one

Nova is my current pick. Custom icons, number of icons in dock, homescreen grid and resizable widgets are must-haves for me. I do wish there are gestures and more dock customization options, but neither of those are deal-breakers.

ADW Ex remains my favorite.
I've used Go, Claystone, Nova, trebuchet, QQ, Live Home, Regina 3D, and SPB, but ADW provides the smoothest operation, great customization, and the backup/restore function works great.

Adw Ex

OP said only ICS based launchers.
My vote is for Nova also.

so far Apex Launcher for me...
minor side, some bugs on transparant drawer...

Launcher Pro
I also like Launcher Pro. It's not the best looking, but it has a wonderful set of features.

[Q] What is The best launcher ?

for me it is the 360 launcher
what is yours ?

I used Go Launcher EX for a pretty long time when i had an HTC Desire as it worked unbelievably smooth. Now that i've gotten a SGS it somehow isn't as snappy... But the features are the same so I'll be sticking to it untill I find some launcher with as much (or more) features and hopefully smoother working..

This is very subjective.... but I like the native launcher from ICS : Trebuchet

I would have to agree with terbuchet.

ex is good but its very heavy
try 360 you may like it & you can do more with it than ex

Nova launcher working well for me. Also heard good things about apex launcher but havent tried it yet. Nova launcher is ics only & i think apex is also but not sure.

launcher 7 and go launcher seems to work the best for me. i switch the two every now and then.

Nova launcher on ICS

Hi,
Launcher 7 for me.

on gingerbread:go launcher ex
on ICS:ıcs launcher
i dont know why but go launcher eating too much ram like yandex.shell in ics.(70-100 mb ram ***)

best launcher
for me is the apex launcher the best

the new Nova Launcher Prime - finally with appdrawer groups!

Have people tried ssLauncher? It may be a bit complicated at first but later it'll make sense. It has damn many settings and it's very unique. I switched to it from go launcher and I think it's lighter and faster.

Apex launcher

Apex Launcher and Launcher7 for me

Apex for sure. I donated to pro

nice
got to say there is sooooo many launcher 90% is rubbish and look the same
so i guess the best are
apex
nova
ex
ss & 7 looks weird but they are nice
but i will keep on 360

nova and EX!!

go ex, and apex for ics

I really like touchwiz design, but it lacks of costumization and it' slow

Best launcher for optimus???

I keep search for best launcher for OB
Used launcher pro,nemus,go launcher,sslauncher,xperia
Go launcher is good but consumes much battery.
I liked sslauncher. It's the most customized launcher. But now it's giving fc

I have adw launcher ex. Its very smooth and good for the battery life. Go Launcher is also good, but i think adw ex is smoother so i prefer adw ex :thumbup:

that depends on your taste
i like adw, xperia s(one x style), lg home
the others i've used but i dont like them this much (go launcher, launcher pro...)

tsf shell no doubt. you actually get a fluid experience. it's the best launcher in terms of fluidity.

I use Go Launcher because of full personalization and very smooth.. adw launcher seems not very smooth on my OB.. One of most smooth is tsf shell, but i don't like it..

Nemus Launcher, Go Launcher, ADW Launcher Pro.

tsf shell is fluid yes but i dont like it

The launcher i like the best is Holo launcher, very smooth, ics like, you can customize folders and you can chose icon packs form apks so it makes it kind of compatible with other launchers themes

Holo launcher is good and adw launcher ex

For me Go launcher best..

IMO Go Launcher installs so much useless crapware and since all their apps intertwine, i wouldn't be surprised if they 'anonymously' took information to 'better' their services.
I use Holo Launcher for realistic ICS look and plus its FREE!!!!!!

For me Xperis s launcher is the best because you can manage place of the application in application drawer... and all launcher pro and adw launcher icons work.

Holo launcher has lags, Go Launcher uses many ram. Launcher Pro is fluid and lighter. Xperia launcher is ok to use.

MiHome Launcher (MIUI)
I use the MiHome Launcher from MIUI and for me it's good to have widgets and apps all in one place

been using adw free since day one hehheheh i bought the paid one to support but still am using the free one cos i like the hidden dockbar thing =P

Xperia +1 I like it

Apex

Hi all, i like the nemus launcher. I used LauncherPro for years, but it will not be updated anymore and the functionality is not "the state of art". Nemus is very smooth, small and you can use the go launcher themes on it.
Give it a try.
Greetings

xperia launcher
I prefer xperai s launcher :good:

Best Launcher???

Greetings Guy...Wanna know about yours expieriece, wich one culd be the best laucher for the TP???

nova seems the smoothest to me. and of course has plenty of options.

I use Apex, but there are many good ones available. It's a matter of personal preference.

Nova has plenty of options and is quite fast. But the stock one that comes with cm is quite fine too (trebuchet) and if you don't need too much customization is quite similar to nova.

I personally use Nova because I got it for $0.25 during one of Google's sales. It's a good smooth browser with a bunch of customization options. That said, there are a bunch of launchers out there that take a different view on things. There are 3d launchers like Next that run adequately on the TP. Action Launcher has a couple of very nice features that I like as well... but not enough to give up the customization of Nova.
In the end, it really is all up to what you like and what you want. That's what Android is all about. Do you want fancy? Do you want smooth? Do you want customization? Try em all out and see which one you like.

I Like the GO Launcher EX

I have always used Holo Launcher, and now Holo Launcher HD on my touchpad. Lightweight but smooth and responsive.
Not heavy on customization like Nova or Apex.
