Im trying to move from sense rom to cyanogenmod. But im really loving some of the apps in sense. Can people list what apps, widgets etc that they use on launcher, adw, ahome etc. so i can check them out to see if im interested?
wrong thread
read through the screenshots sticky in the themes and apps thread, you will find more cool stuff than you can fit on your phone
Also, launcher pro plus has a great, really good looking set of base widgets and they're adding more
I've seen some tutorials on modding the Galaxy S dock and stuff like that but these are limited to the look of the actual dock.
I was looking for something like making it use 5 icons instead of the default 4. Even if this calls for the use of smaller icons I don't mind since I plan to make my own with Photoshop and Desktop Visualizer.
I know 5++ icon docks are possible with the use of different launchers but I actually like Touch Wiz and would like to stick to it.
If there isn't a safe way to do this, then may I know if there are any dock-only replacements out there? Like not actual launchers..just a dock that you can customize or theme.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the different themes of LauncherPro out there. I'm willing to pay for some of them even 'cus they are simply gorgeous...but I want to keep my Touch Wiz app drawer and screen scrolling behavior. I've already tried out Launcher Pro and I just can't get used to it/like it.
This is something I am very much interested in as well.
TwLauncher is fast and the app drawer is really good. I feel the icons are too big.
Actually I would like it if we could have more columns on the homepage as well as in the dock.
I am sticking to ADW for these things, but I really like TwLauncher too.
Try Zeam Launcher. Its on the market.
Hi guys, just look at the thread from gtg465x called "[MOD] TouchWizGTG Launcher v1.1.1" (sorry can't post a link since I'm still a junior member)
Looks great and it's very fast!!

I've been through a few launchers now and am still undecided as to which will be my daily driver. For a long time it was GO Launcher from the market due to the amount of options baked in for free, but it was just too buggy, so I plunked down some cash to try Launcher Pro and it was pretty similar overall, but the lack of a true home screen chaps my cheeks. Now I'm wondering (after seeing so many different screenshots of YOUR amazing setups on your Epic...) what Launcher do you prefer, and why?
ADW Launcher is my cup of tea. It is very customizable from docks, downloadable themes/icons, to the overwhelming setting options to make it just how you want it. The free version is by far superior to the other free launchers by offering more ways of customization. you could of course support the Dev by purchasing the ADW Launcher EX which jams a lot more into it. From a themer stand point the ADW is a very workable Launcher for changing things around to fit your needs for the said theme you would like it to be included in. As stated above though, once you settle into a Launcher that you decide to stick with, support the Dev by buying the full version for all their hard work in bringing it to your disposal.
GO Launcher EX. I have them all (LP, ADW and Go) . ADW is a mess when you start going into the menu's. GO Launcher seems to have taken the best from LP and ADW IMO>
ADW is by far the most customizable imo. I use ADW EX and love it. Some people swear by LP. Try them out and use what works for you. As said above support for devs hard work and time is always appreciated.

Touchwiz, to me its really clean and I can't seem to stray to far from it when I change launchers.
There is a "true" gingerbread launcher out now its pretty sweet that I am currently using though...
ADW for me as well. I have the paid version but the free version is still an awesome find. Lots of great features and customizable themes and icons. I've tried just about all of them and most have a lot of the same features, but I always find myself going back to ADW.
Up until about a month ago I was using adw (free), then I upgraded to Adw EX. It's fantastic. The only complaint I had with adw was the pretty horrible menu organization...Adw EX has solved that! I will say there are a lot of fru-fru options in EX that I don't use (like changing the animation on home screen scrolling) but the dev is super helpful, found plenty of themes and on adw ex, anything I've seen in the "post your homescreen" area, I've been able to recreate.
Oh, and only other thing I didn't like in adw (free) was the inability to ovelap widgets... can do that in EX tho

Launcher pro, I love the scrollable dock. It keeps my homescreens clutterfree.

Launcher Pro, the 3D drawer in this is stunning.
Launcher Pro. I love the smooth 3D drawer and the included widgets are actually pretty useful!

Ditto here. LP is nothing special (although pretty stable) and you have to pay for ADW to get the features and customization you get for free with GO Launcher.
I've had no issues whatsoever with GO Launcher. It's been stable, fast and has more options than I even know what to do with.
Sprint ID!...LMAO, J/K!!!....I'm TouchWiz for 4ever, LauncherPro is nice, but it doesn't have the widgets I like. ADW FC's and Crashes like a cheap paper airplane, GO is a close second.
launcher pro, clean and simple yet still alot of customizing available
I really like some of ADW's features but LauncherPRO's widgets are what keeps me using it, plus the developer is working on a complete rewrite of LauncherPRO to make it more efficient and lighter.
Interesting that no one had said anything about Zeam... Yes, it is light on features, but that also means it's light on resources as well (and I don't care how fast you overclock, lighter is always better for performance). Scrolling dock, gestures, and desktop resizing; simple and sweet.

I've tried launcherpro, adw, tw, and lately Go launcher ex. Right now I'm really liking go launcher ex. Clean, fast, stable, and features that I like.
Launcher pro plus for me. Like stated above, the scrollable dock and the included widgets you get with the plus version is nice. I downloaded a themed version that has all the widgets transparent with blue highlights and all the buttons at the bottom of the widgets instead of the top and they're also more finger friendly. Check it out there are other themed versions also. You have to buy the plus version to get full benefits of launcher pro IMO.

Launcher 7
Sent from XDA app with 2.2 powered Epic 4g
I just switched to adw after 8 mths of touchwiz because of cm7. Adw has tons of options. If it was fc'ing there is an option for wallpaper hack that is suppose to make it not fc. I love adw and will not go back to touchwiz.
can anyone tell me which theme or launcher is it?
i want my dock to be like this..
Hard to tell. Some launchers like adw or launcherpro are very customizable. I bet you could make them look like this with some fiddling. Its most certainly not any brand launcher like samsungs TWlauncher or motoblur. I guess were looking at adw ex witb removed main dock and some custom icons. Actually a nice setup. I think I'll steal it

I think it s:
clock is minimalistic text (sure)
background is from new icecream android
dock is from launcher pro with changed icons
Hey All,
I have been looking at the numerous ROM's available for the T989 Galaxy S 2. Currently, I really like the look and functionality of the Tuesday ROM and the Paradox ROM. I like that you can scroll vertically in the app drawer since Touch Wiz is 90% removed. Great feature IMO.
I was just wondering, are there any ROM's currently available that has an endless drag 'n drop arrangable scrollable dock just like Zeam Launcher? I absolutely love that option.
If not, is there any way to add the endless arrangable scrollable dock to the Tuesday or Paradox ROM? Thanks.
You pretty much answered your own question in the third paragraph. It's the launcher, not the Rom. You can change launchers with any Rom. I use ADW ex. Many like the Go Launcher. I'm not sure of all the options of each but no you have a starting point.

My thoughts on launchers...
Go Launcher - Aestetically pleasing, seems to have a lot higher battery use then others. Too many frills.
ADW - Just never liked it, not sure why but it just somehow feels clunky to me.
Zeam - Little too stripped down to me.
Launcher Pro - My personal choice, good mix of everything.

I actually tried out Launcher Pro as per your suggestion. Very nice Launcher I like it. I prefer Zeam just because I can switch the position of all my apps on the dock bar. The dock bar is infinite. Also I set it up to swipe to go to my app drawer. Love that feature. Launcher Pro would definetly be one of my top picks now for Launchers after giving it a try. Thanks.
