Database Develop

4 Icons on the bottom?

Hi guys,
You know on the bottom of the Nexus One home screen you have three quick lauch buttons...?
[X][Menu][X]
I see in some screenshots in theme development where people have 5 icons on the bottom
[X][X][Menu][X][X]
How do you do that?
Thanks

download a different launcher... launchers are the general GUI for your phone....
Most people use either ADW Launcher or I prefer Launcher pro (i have the plus edition for the extra little widgets)
I would recommend you try Launcher pro first, its a little more polished in my opinion... ADW is an open source launcher and i think it has a lot of short comings and more bugs...

Yep. LP or ADW is what you need. You can theme both as well to change the dock graphics. I, too, prefer LP

LauncherPro is the best one.

Best home replacement

Hello to all my fellow xda-developers...
I was wondering what your personal favorite choice for homes are.
personally I use Zeam, its simple, straightforward, and has a dock! Unfortunately it is still missing some features that I absolutely desire (specifically an organizable app drawer).
Well anyway on to my question........​
What is your favorite home replacement?
We all have heard of those such as:
Launcher pro
Zeam
GDE
AHome
PandaHome
OpenHome
Others....
And then there are those that come default:
HTC sense
MotoBlur
TouchWiz
Xperia X10
(yes i know those are UI's but they have custom home's too)
So which style adorns your home screen?​

do we really need another one of these threads? anyway i say launcher pro, simply because it's awesome.

i prefer launcher pro plus

LauncherPro.

i really liked SweeterHome. it;s really a fanastic launcher and it certainly has potential beyond all but LauncherPro. but it's a terrible ***** theming it. i walked away after a few days...
SweeterHome 2 is coming out, should be worth a look. anyway, LauncherPro is everyone's final answer but tell me this isn't beautiful: http://sweeterskins.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Borderline_promo.jpg

Launcher pro plus

I really liked Slidescreen, but it was a bit too heavy for my G1 - I imagine it would be superb on a bigger screened/more powerful phone. A major departure from every other home replacement, with a pretty steep learning-curve, but very pretty.

Sorry for this question

[Q]Replicate touchwiz 4.0?

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to replicate touchwiz 4 on my android powered HD2;
i dont use touchwiz 4.5 by Fr4gg0t cause it too unstable for daily use,so what i'm trying to accomplish is a closed imitation of that UI.
Atm i have 2 ways of doing it
1-Using launcher pro plus with it's widgets themed with launcher pro corporate theme (1&2),beautiful widget pro.
cons: there is no way to make the drawer scroll orizzontally
2-using ADW EX,android pro widgets (in simple b&w theme) again beautiful widget and minimal reader pro with sqaured widgets.
cons:it just look not properly..right!
so right to the question:do you guys know any other squared widget that can be "touhwiz 4-like"?is there any way to get a properly spaced) 4 icons dock on adw-ex or lpp?

Maybe this one; https://market.android.com/details?...auncher.reloaded2&feature=more_from_developer

Hi,
I don't really understand what you actually want. Give me more details and maybe I can help.
As of 4 icons dock, I believe MIUI ROM and Sony Ericsson Home use 4 icons dock (search the forums).

i''ve sent you a private message cause i cant post images due my low post count :S

I know what he means I like the touch wiz ui. I would love to have a nice theme for adw.ex launcher if possible. Does anybody know of any? Free would be preferred price range.

What's your favorite launcher?

Please, vote for the launcher and share the name of your favorite theme!
I have another post about the same thing but couldn't add poll to it, so I'm starting this one with poll. Moderator would be kind enough to delete the other thread. Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49754302

The stock sense is the best!
Best performance

I voted Nova and I probably believe that, but I have been using Google Experience Launcher for a few days and am really enjoying it.

I have really loved Next Launcher and before that Go Launcher. I've used Nova and ADW and just didn't find them any better than various stock or trebechet (sp?). Unfortunately, Next is expensive (although it is on sale right now). I also have observed that EVERYTHING is getting more and more expensive.
The themes I've used and liked are a combination of free and paid. Love the memscape themes but to theme every app I could with say, New York - expensive! My faves are probably the cobalt themes for cm roms and go sms but they do not have launcher themes. The Go folks, e.g. zt.art, have decent free themes.
On my One I am currently using the Next 3D scene mode with Steel 3D (faisca art - They also have a beautiful Christmas theme both classic and 3D). I simply can't afford to try more.

Apex here
Apex all the way for me, purely for two reasons: I can set grid size (I like 7x5/5x7 for the Homescreen/drawer) and change icon size (I set them to 80% for Homescreen, drawer and dock)
I'd go back to GEL or stock if I could do the same with those (I actually quite like Blinkfeed)

Aviate wins hands down

Not an EMUI fan? Nova Launcher Prime is on sale for the holidays (80% off)

As the title says, I've noticed Nova Launcher Prime is on sale for the holidays. $0.99 instead of the usual $4.99.
I know a lot of Huawei first time users aren't exactly fans of EMUI so I thought I'd share the news.

@Governa
Nova is the best launcher, but with mate9 direct dial widget doesn't work. Any idea how to fix this on nova or any other custom launcher with direct dial widget support?

Sorry but I don't actually use Nova Launcher. Coming from iOS I find myself right at home with EMUI.
I can only suggest you shoot an email to the developers.

At 99cents it's a steal imo, been using nova Launcher since forever. I don't own a mate 9 yet but I guess I'm giving emui a go, been used to miui for a long time on my note 3 so I guess I could live with emui.
