Hi,
Lollipop is very nice, but I don't like the white app gallery and also white app group folder.
So, I am thinking to use custom launcher. It should be possible to have complete black for those launcher part.
Anyone can recommend a good custom launcher which is very close to the default original launcher? Launcher which doesn't drain battery, light and doesn't lag.
I tried Nova and Apex before, both are quite heavy with many additional features which I don't need.
Thanks
Lucid launcher isn't like any launcher I've ever used but I love it it uses less battery than any I've tried and is very smooth try it out.
Nova is my favorite, it's very customizable, easy to use and updated all of the time.
Nova and it's consistent updates...
Definitely look into APUS Launcher. Fast, extremely small, and beautiful launcher.
Nova, no compromises
Nova is by far the best answer for you.
I like Nova and use it, but I just wish it actually worked like Kit Kat or Lollipop? Adding widgets, or objects to the homescreen brings up a Gingerbread like list instead of the more beautiful Google Now, Touchwiz, etc launchers.
I have had some much correspondence with them about updating it and they still can't understand what I am trying to say. How hard can it be??
Old way (Nova, Apex, etc...)

New way.. (Google Now, Touchwiz, etc..)
I wish some of the 3rd party launchers supported the dedicated Google Now page. I used to use Nova but I have to stick with stock until someone figures that out.
Nova no doubt. Hell I have been using it for so long I actually bought Nova Prime to get the most out of it!
Nova Prime.
My favorite will always be GO Launcher!
It's the most customizable that I've found, and that side dock is a game changer, i feel like i'm rocking a Note Edge, lol.
My desktop consist of one single screen, with ZERO app shortcuts on it, but dual bottom dock, and side dock enabled, as well as waterfall-vertical app drawer.
Nova for the gestures. Going to need it with that much real estate

If you play with gestures on Nova Prime you can get it to act a lot like Google Now Launcher.

Is there? Not a theme for ADW etc. A launcher that will have a dock to put on 4 apps, and the ability to change the icons myself on the desktop(huge icons, without having to add desktop visualizer widgets), as well as putting all the apps in the app drawer on the desktop.
is there? Or am I asking for too much?

Try Go Launcher EX. It uses folders just like MIUI thus you can do the all apps in a folder.
Or if you feel adventurous you could root your phone and use the MIUI rom. most iphone like ROM and interface I've seen.
Try "MIUI.ADW iPhone Launcher" it has all of those qualities you wanted.
search for ICLONE app on market

I have rooted it and installed the Diet Gingerbread. The problem is, it's an HTC Magic, and I don't think the MIUI rom is available for that phone. ((
Try vLauncher, it is pretty close to what you described.
Or try Espier Launcher

Bandwidth monitor would be a perfect addition, I don't know if that's possible without root access though.
That would be, but that would be more complex task to do. I think, that the root is not required to do this.

wrong thread, sorry
Nova - Stable, Smooth, Funtionality, Similar to stock (better than Apex cos it has less glitches, i myself tried apex first then switched to Nova)
TSF - Animations:good: , Smooth and also the best launcher to show off with , use it with the full screen mod looks awesome
Buzz - If u want to change the look of ur homescreen frequently without breaking a sweat
I miss gestures in the stock launcher, but other than that it's pretty nice

The deal breakers for me in stock launcher are 1.the number of rows and 2.no lock for the icons. I like them stuck to the ground.
Additionally, Nova is smooth as silk.
Sent from my Xperia Z
I'm using stock as I can't find anything wrong with it honestly... the drawer is not the best, but I rarely use it. Otherwise I always thought Apex was the best choice for me. Tried Nova, but I wasn't convinced to switch from Apex.

i used nova before but rite now im using TST shell and i think its the best launcher on the store
I have purchased Nova Prime but after using it for over 1 year I was looking for something fresh. I really like Chemeleon Launcher its fast and simple and the widgets look good. You can also use 3rd party widgets etc and accessing apps is very quick. It lacks a lot of features of other launchers and does not offer as much customization but I like it the way it is.

Show your Launcher hate! Which Launcher do you simply hate?
I actually hate CM launcher and other bull**** "speed up ur phone from home screen" apps.
I hate Apus, Go, Cm, Cheetah, C Launcher, Solo, TSF and all the extra crap. Why can't everybody make a good Launcher like Nova and Apex. If they did, I will have more options for Launchers

I really don't like the nova launcher. Touchwiz all the way.
Seriously all the whacky UI and theme-offering bloatware launchers. Way too many of those, not enough innovation. Also HomeUX for taking the money and abandoning it way too soon.
All launchers! GO COMANDO, USE TERMINAL SESSIONS TO LAUNCH YOUR APPS. IT'S FUN!
Seriously the only launcher like is the Tab4. Only if Magazine UI were removed from Samsung special edition tab launcher, it would be the best.
i hate all launchers, they always throw some garbage and annoying full screen ads.

I hate zen launcher.
TouchWiz from Samsung love nova launcher. Such a great launcher you can tweak as much as possible
I personally hate 90% of launchers available on Play. They're mostly bull****, especially Chinese launchers with all of their boosting feature (which is junk) and launchers claiming to be S7, Nougat launcher (Nova is better anyway), and iOS launchers with their crappy ads.
As a fact, I only have 3 preferred launchers outside the stock launcher of ROM I use.

Touchwiz launcher.
The icons (prior to the s7) look horrible and are wayyy too colourful.
Touchwiz launchers, Zen, HTC Sense launcher, and all those crappy "speed up your phone" launchers.

how about nova, sir? i mean, its so good that i love it
PS: i hate almost every launcher for having low customisability
I hate TouchWiz. Bloated as hell. Been using Buzz launcher. Works like a charm!
GO launcher
I love the default launcher other than dumping with other launcher which would make my device an ad device.
All those New 2017 Launcher apps too.
Indus launcher

Just go to play store and search for CyanogenMod themes. You'll get a bunch of them and just download the one you like the most. Once downloaded, just apply the theme. You can also use third-party icon packs in the theme engine if you don't like the icons that come with the theme. Lastly, you can use launchers like nova launcher, apex launcher, smart launcher, etc to get other UI functionality.

Yeah but just by looking at the picture, can you tell which theme is being used?? The only thing that I get from that picture is that there is one theme, maybe a google now launcher or nova launcher, extra buttons added in the navbar and many quick settings tiles.
So I said to look around in the Play Store to find that theme.
After looking up the picture in Google Images I found a thread with a Nexus 6P RR ROM and according to the developer, the theme used is called Neptune Material - Play Store link from the Alkan KRK themes. (source)
EDIT: Ok apparently the developer used the Neptune Material theme for the first screenie, and then another one which could be this one? Colors Dark - Play Store link.
Kind of matches the screenies, doesn't it.
