I am currently running Darky Rom 9.5 with Crysis Revolution Theme. I love the the style of it and the themed launcher. The only thing I would like to change is the app drawer. It is currently horizontal scrolling and I would like to change it to vertical 3d app drawer. Unfortunately, there is no launcher specific setting to modify.
Does anyone know of a way to change this. I am guessing it would require to modify the apk or something similar.
what launcher is it ??
have you opened the app drawer and pressed the menu button and see if the option is there ?
it is for some launchers
It looks to be a tweaked version of TWLauncher. I looked, but there is no specific settings or or preferences for the launcher. I was hoping there was because that would have been the easy solution. Thje only launcher that I have found to have this option is just called launcher. I am guessing that it is a ported version of the stock Froyo or Gingerbread launcher.
you can't change this in the app, but instead you can use the gingi launcher. It won;t have 5 dock bar and transparency but still... I recommend Go Launcher.
Hey guys, ive been reading around and im currently on Miui 1.12.09 and i love the look of the icons on the screen and not in a menu. However i like launcher pro because of the expandability, but i don't like how it puts the apps back into a menu. so my question is, can i run launcher pro and have all of my apps list on the home screen? Thanks guys
not that im aware of, just 4x4 square for icons/shortcuts
Is there a way to make the wallpaper scroll on the stock launcher?
If not what is the most user friendly launcher that allows for scrolling wallpaper? I use to use launcher pro but fede hasn't done much to it in awhile last time I checked.
Hoping someone can help me....
I am running ditto's latest RC2 with S5 Mod. I have also installed x2 fakejaps pullup as was posted on the ditto thread. This Mod changes the launcher to 5x6. I have also installed the 5x2 weather clock to match. The problem I am having is I usually use favourite contacts widget on one of my homescreens, but fav contacts widget is only 4x and when I drag it to homescreen it is out of line (sides of widget chopped off). I want to either change the fav contacts widget to 5x or get the 4x homescreens back but still keep the working x2 pullups.
Can anyone I ive me a guide on how I can do either of these options?
Thanks in advance
Scotty.
I do say that the best launcher with customization is Ofcourse Nova launcher.
Nova launcher beta version is now Google companion supported. It will soon roll out for Stable Nova version.
Nova vs System Launcher
[Nova launcher]✓
1-App drawer
2-Change Grid
3-change dimensions
4-Widget resizing overlapping.
5-Custom folder options
6-Backup and restore Configs
7-App drawer Configs
8-Desktop Configs
[System Launcher]✓
1- Lite weight Ram friendly
2-Clean UI
3-Minimal options
4-Supported with Themes
5-beautiful Setup
Some screenshots here with some themes.
Actually System Launcher takes more RAM than nova, both are good in their own features.
MIUI launcher also has live icons for Clock, Calendar and Weather app. Almost all the launchers have live Calendar option now but if I remember correctly, MIUI v6, v7 or maybe both also had seconds display along with hour and minute hands on the clock app icon. That looks pretty if you ask me
I've used Nova launcher before. It's nice. Lots of customization. However. I am using the default MIUI launcher now and I honestly don't miss Nova.
System Launcher
I am more stock admirer so nova hands down... I actually have only one page in nova and launching most apps with appdialer. I use launcher page mainly for some informational widgets and shortcuts
Nova all the way, light and well performing
Nova its customizable, you can turn off / Block screen with Double Tap. Also support 3rd party beauty icons. The bad Thing is some widgets like clock do not work properly.
MIUI stock its very good and support a lot of beautiful themes. Pretty widget and Wallpapers but you can put apps icons by alphabetic order.
smart launcher is way better than both of them, i really dont understand why it isnt more popular
No way default launcher of mi can beat nova...ecen stock Android launcher is better than mi home launcher...After buying a mi phone the first thing I did was to install Nova launcher.
And for the second choise use Buzz launcher
System launcher

I use this Lock widget in MIUI launcher on every screen, quite handy if you ask me.

I liked Nova Launcher but i like simplicity of Evie Launcher. It has double tap lock and supports different icon packs available on playstore. Give it a try. One more thing is its Free and Ad Free. Enjoy.
I like Nova launcher for the fact you can edit truncated app names, and scroll the dock plus other things. The ONE thing MIUI launcher has in its favor is the Quick Function Widget has a toggle that will turn Mobile data on and off directly without going thru the settings. Thats a big plus for me, but you cant edit app names, or scroll the dock Its a real shame that you cant directly toggle mobile data on and off with nova or power toggle, like you can do with Native MIUI launcher
