I like launcher pro but i only have two issues with it. It doesnt work right with widget locker and i cant use some widgets i really enjoy. Is there anyway to get access to all my widgets in launcher pro?
I really only want the dock and the app screen
Hi I've now tried 4 different launchers and I can't make up my mind.
What launcher is generally the best, keeping up the speeds etc?
I just can't make up my mind. Any good suggestions?
I use LauncherPro on mine and really like it
Don't know about what is the "best launcher", whatever you like/feel most comfortable with.
I use Launcher Pro myself with Desktop Visualizer to theme my phone.
Have been a big LauncherPro fan but have recently been using ADW EX ..... its very quick and very pretty (great animations etc)
Try them all and see what you like

What 4 launchers did you try? So far i only used Launcher Pro & i'm happy with it.
Top 3 for me. ADW EX, GO, LauncherProPlus.
as a launcher i find the newest adw very smooth.but as i love the launcherpro plus's widgets,i choose it
I'm using launcherpro free version and it has everything I need as home app.

I just love the ADW EX version with all it's animations and smoothness. The developers that combines these things with LP+ widgets gets my vote. Now I just switch between them depending on mood.
Zeam was an excellent launcher on my low-end Pulse, it ought to make the Defy grow wings, but it's not that customizable.

I use zeam. Have used a few and this one does what i want it to do.
Just try a few different ones.
After reading the fora, I went with what seemed like the majority consensus, and on the third day of owing my Defy (my first Android phone), I bought LauncherProPlus. That was couple of months ago, and LauncherPro is all that everybody says. Now, I just installed the Go Launcher, and I have to say that it's superior. The two are so similar in concept that it might have been the same team that designed both, but the Go Launcher, in addition to doing everything that LauncherPro does, has features that make it much more useful and nicer to use. It has, for example, an intuitive interface for organizing apps into folders, in addition to hiding the unnecessary ones. Then it has a couple of settable gestures, the swipe up, and swipe down with which one can hide the notification bar, for example. It's 5x5 icons on the home screen implementation is flawless, unlike in LauncherPro, and the widget resizing method is also easier. Just nice touches all around, and none of them gimicky.
i use adw launcher ex their are so manny different options if you like playing with them you can get it just how you like. its also the speediest i think
I would try HE launcher its free and simple. It has the best of all worlds.

I tried Launcher Pro, LG Home, ADW and of course the standard Motoblur...
I'm kinda after something quick and smooth, doesn't have to be 15 homescreens etc. Um, I posted the original thread to see what tips you guys got.
//Dave
I use zeam launcher. it's a minimal launcher with low memory's consumption, but there is no cutomization.
Wow, thanx for all tips!
Will now have to try the Go launcher, have to get ADW EX another go as well as HE Launcher.
//Dave
Totally agree. Go Launcher is the one for me. Tried pretty much everything else and chose this one. LauncherPro is my second option. But I think Go Launcher is everything LaucnherPro is, and more. =)

You can't. That's one thing I found out on the Defy. If you install any other launcher the original Blur launcher cannot be selected. I've tried Home Switcher, having two launchers and trying to clear defaults, and any other thing you can think of. The only way to get Blur back is to uninstall all other launchers.
Not true....install an app called homesmack from the market....it is free and will allow u to switch very easily

Hi fellow HTC One X threaders.
I was wondering whether it is possible to replace the stock launcher(want to do some nice things) with a other launcher and still be able to use the widgets of HTC(Love the weather widget btw)?
FYI my phone is rooted, not that it will possibly make a difference.
As far as I know HTC widgets only work with the stock sense launcher
Sent from my HTC One X
Any Sense related widgets can not be used with any other third party launchers.
Same for example TouchWiz.
You have 2 options, stick with Sense launcher or third party launcher bundled with various widgets to try and replicate Sense.
thanks for the replies. I decided to move to Nova Launcher Prime. Very decent launcher with enough customizations.

Take a look at Apex Launcher as well. It's personal choice of course but I tried both and ended up preferring Apex overall.
Using Apex Pro as well. Perfect for me.

hi every one when i install nova launcher i loose my original sense widgets how can i get them back?
You can't get them with a 3rd party launcher.
If you want sense widgets... Use the sense rosie launcher.
As for some specific widgets like clocks... I believe there is a port for other launchers.
Generally, you'll have to use sense launcher to use sense widgets.

Hi guys, I own a LG G3 D855.
I just purchased Nova Launcher app. and was wondering why I can't see like 'calendar, favourite contacts, E-mail, FM Radio, LG Music, Smart notice and Weather' widgets.
Is there a way to able to see those widgets using a 3rd party launcher? Or are there any launcher that makes default launcher's widgets visible ?
looking forward to your reply
* Non-root device
* No external SDcard.

I believe LG widgets will only show on the stock launcher.

nope I am not. Are there ways around getting those specific LG calendar/music/weather working on different launcher?
Hmmm.... I think they appear on otjer launchers from memory. You can also use nova to actually edit the miasing icons and assign new ones instead. Ut that can be a bit annoying. Are you a nova die hard?

I'm not having issues with the icons. I can't get the actual "Weather/music/Calendar" widgets on 3rd party launcher (Nova Launcher). I'm just worried because I purchased Pro Nova Launcher. I mean I could get 3rd party weather,calendar and music app but what a waste T_T
