I'm not sure what to call it with out looking at my evo but it's dead and don't greek like charging it.
What I'm looking for is a app that does what my evo can do. It allows me to make multiable homes using the same launcher. It then allows me to switch back and force depending on my mood. it came with a htc home, a sprint home, and a black home. I added a work home with a bunch of widgets I used for work. Once I got home I switched to my daily home witch had a bunch of other widgets. It allowed me to switch back and fourth with out changing my settings our widgets depending on what home I was using.

dont know of an app for this but i found this: http://hubpages.com/hub/Droid-Home-Replacement-App-Comparison
might want to check it out. also i thought of a workaround though its kindof a PITA. launcherpro and adw both support backing up your homescreens and settings, so you could backup your config and move it to another folder, keep several configs and just move the one you want to the default location and restore from backup.
of course, LP doesnt restore the widgets right, so fwiw.
Could u partition the sd and keep a copy on each side I would think zeam would work as the launcher. Then you would just need an app to switch partitions.
Other thought: take apk of launcher program u like. Copy and rename it to something like launcher2. Install both and use home switcher to flip between them. Easy fix.

I don't know the file names, so I'm gonna make them up... but,
Using backup and restore features, if they're all just xml files, lets say your launcherpro backup name is "launcherprobackup.xml"
Then rename it to "launcherprobackup2.xml" and create another backup.
Could someone write a script or something that would do something like :
rename launcherprobackup.xml to launcherprobackup3.xml
rename launcherprobackup2.xml to launcherprobackup.xml
rename launcherprobackup3.xml to launcherpro2.xml
then restore launcherpro backup, restart launcherpro?
kinda ghetto.. but.. ya.
Edit: You're prob have to restore your widgets each time.. but not sure.
You could also try the multiple Titanium Backup route, and restore a separate instance/backup.

At the risk of sounding noobish again, You should still be able to rename the file so it shows as a seperate program. You might have to take all your data off the phone, make the adjustments on a PC and put it back onto the phone, but it can be done. Mysteryemotionz, Try it with your v9 beast theme and use the browser you have in it for trials. Worse case is I am wrong and I go back to being noob status again .

I'm not sure, but I think that would require some xml modifications, and kind of defeat the purpose of changing the "scene" at will. I think the launchers (or any app) has instructions to use specific folder names to store lib or database files which might cause conflict when trying to run both.. but like the comment above, I could be totally lying/incorrect

Best idea I've heard yet, I feel like that could be the ticket. I've been pondering this as well, and the only thing I can think of would be to literally create a whole new launcher from scratch. If I could do it I would, how sick would it be to have LP, ADW, Zeam, and all other launchers packed into one. You would have 5 "launcher screens", each customizable with seperate icons, widgets, etc. they could all be different, or look the same just with different icons. Am I making sense lol?

To the OP, you are talking about the "Scenes" feature of HTC sense. I would say the closest thing to that on a phone without HTC sense, is what the others are talking about. LauncherPro. Build a setup, make a backup of it. Repeat till you have all your different setups. Then you can switch whenever you want.

That is because it is not technically an app, at least not the type that you are accustomed to using. Do this to get it to work.
1. Go to Settings ---> Applications ---> Manage Applications
2. After the list loads scroll down to HTC Sense, tap "Clear Defaults" and "Force Stop"
Touch the home button and it should give you an option on which launcher you would like to load.
Hope this helps!

Already rooted and running fresh. And apparently this came with the most recent fresh update, but had no idea out to try it out! So thanks! This is exactly what i needed.
disabling sense and using the stock launcher was the only way to get my computer to see my phone. i tried launcher pro but my comp will not see my phone now, very very frustrating.

Really?
I've been in root land so I haven't used it and I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't BLOCK other launchers, I think it just doesn't include the 2.1 AOSP launcher "Launcher 2."
As far as the system cares, your home screen is just an app like a browser or music app, it is just a matter of disabling which one is set as default. This can be done in the applications menu via the method described above, or you may find the application "Home Switcher" useful if you like to try out different home screen launchers?
I certainly could be wrong, but I would be surprised if they blocked the ability to turn off sense as the default.
You do not need to be rooted to use either ADW.Launcher nor LauncherPro.
I highly doubt the launcher is causing your computer to not see the device.

No, the new OTA removes the stock Launcher2. It doesn't block anything.

Wrong. You can either use the Force Close trick to get Sense to close, or you can just grab Home Switcher from the Market and use that to close Sense.

I doubt it either, but wit the stock launcher as default my comp saw my phone n that was the only way, wouldnt work wit sense. Wit the new update, they removed the launcher so i tried launcher pro as default n it didnt work. But the weird thing is that my computer at work sees my phone wit no problem, so it must be something within my comp that i cant seem to figure out. n my comp is fully updated n drivers are all up to date so its weird.
I just loaded launcher pro last night. Took me a while to figure it out too as it is NOT in the apps and there are NO instructions.
Is it just me...or is there some conspiracy in Android land to NEVER HAVE ANY INSTRUCTIONS!!!!!!!!
grrrr
Anyway...somehow one time I tapped the home button on phone and it popped up with a window that asked which one I wanted to use. No idea how I got it, but there it was. It had stock android, launcher, and sense listed. (I am still pre-ota). I have played around with all three.
However...honestly...I found launcher to be a complete slow tortoise! Seriously. Everyone hatin on Sense and Launcher was the slowest thing I have ever seen. And I hadn't even added any apps to it. Not sure I like it at all.
Only cool bit is the home screen rotation...which is what I was looking for. I should go leave comments on this....
LauncherPro is a speed demon and is great to use (been doing so since I found out about it).
I have no idea why it would be slow for you at all.
Cuz he has sense still running I would think

Be sure to clean slate your HTC Sense Launcher. I am running EVOlution V9 now, so can't remember exactly where the option is; but it's there somewhere. I installed Launcher Pro on my Stock ROM yesterday before rooting and loved it. Everything worked great once I deleted everything off of my HTC Sense Launcher and set Launcher Pro to default. Running it on Froyo now as well.

You think? I heard so many great things about it, but it is nasty slow on my machine. So if I choose it from that pop up window...then you think sense is still trying to run but with that launcher??
So...how is this done? You have to actually get rid of sense or can you turn it off without root?
(ps...i do plan to root, but not until i make a decision in my 30 day period...yes, i have commitment issues!)

Open Sense again. I think if you hit menu, something like "Scenes" or similar will appear. Select that and select "Clean Slate." That should clear your Sense homescreen.
Then try Launcher Pro again.

Yeah, actually it was the first one I flashed. It just freaked me out a bit cuz it looked so much like iphone.
Is it pretty customizable? Themes and mods?
The main reason I learned about rooting was to make my phone unique like all these crazy beasts I see on here. I'm looking for a ROM that I can trick out and make my own.
MIUI has a built in theme manager that lets you switch themes on a fly. Like any other ROM you can use a different launcher (I use LauncherPro) and fully customize it. Mine looks nothing like an iPhone. Sure the menus bear a resemblance but who cares? They are far nicer looking than the bland menus in Sense and other AOSP ROMs. This is what mine looks like.

That is sick. I have that wallpaper actually but mine doesn't have that blue tint. Is that a theme, different wallpaper, or your personal touch?
Looks like its time to flash that puppy back and get to work. Are the themes available through the theme manager you mentioned or do you have to scour the forum to find them?
Also, are you using desktop visualizer for your icons/drawers?
I got the wallpaper from a folder that was posted here a while ago. If you want it I can upload it for you.
There are some downloadable themes in Theme Downloader (a separate app) and a couple already in Theme Manager, then there is also a forum specifically for MIUI that has a theme section. http://www.miui-dev.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?31-Theme-Releases
Just using shortcuts in LauncherPro and custom icons (Dreamlyfe). I use SiMi Folder Widget for the folders.

You can get launcher pro in the market for free...or search for the apk on google.
And if you install a theme, it normally comes with fonts and icons for a set list of apps. You can always change and app icon at will.

MIUI actually changes ALL icons to match the theme. At the very least it puts a background behind the standard icon to make them all uniform.
Thank you both very much. I'm on my way. I just need to figure out how to start messing with mods. It seems like some you flash, some you manually install, something about "push"...???? I gotta read some more... AHHHH
As for launchers, I have both paid versions of Launcher Pro and ADW. There are things I like about each so I guess I will try them both out on MIUI and see what fits.

so wtf is the point of a launcher having the option to rename things? & i dont remember any other launcher having this problem.
take xbmc remote app the name is "xbmc remote" but the icon says xbmc so why have it say "xbmc remote" just drop the xbmc in the text & it looks better.
BTW i'm not getting upset with you. Its just been pissing me off for months
Just got my galaxy s3 today. Been messing with it sense. Unfortunately i've had issues with some launchers and I don't know why. Apex/Nova/Holo have all been giving issues in the terms of putting down Widgets at the home screen. All three will tell me that there isnt enough room on the page for the widget when that same page is completely blank.
Another issue i had was super lagginess. I haven't rooted yet because im still kinda noobish and i dont want to do anything derpy to the phone. And i wanted to give touchwiz at least a little bit of time. Aside from that though ive been installing and un-installing launchers like mad and im still getting a bit of lag from switching between pages for an example. Ive got scroll effects turned off and speed nearly all the way up (or low in Apex i think) and its still feeling sluggish.
Was wondering what recomendations you guys could give. Like i said i want to stay stock for a bit...at least until cm comes out
When you reboot the phone, do you get the prompt that asks you what program you want to use (for the launcher)? Select your desired launcher, and press Always.
Yea I get that option and ive placed it for my holo launcher but for whatever reason apex and nova were giving me issues like lag and starting to fc things. Was just curious if any one knewbl what was up. Any good launches you would recommend?

I did a full wipe just now and its sill giving me issues that there isnt enough room on the page for the upload of the widget. All im trying to do is upload a stock digital clock widget and its giving me issues in both apex and holo. Is it because they might be touchwiz widgets and the launchers aren't recognizing them?

Q: I can't add widgets to my homescreen from the Widgets tab of the drawer. Help!
A: In order to use the in-drawer widgets feature, you have to either enable the Root Helper from advanced settings or install Apex Launcher as a system app (instructions below), both of which require root on your device. This is due to limitations of the Android framework, so there is no way we could change this requirement. If you have just installed it as a system app and still cannot add widgets from the drawer, please reboot your device and try again. If you do not have root access, you may still add widgets from the system widget picker. Just long press on the homescreen and choose "Widgets" from the popup list.

Wow - they must really be pushing those notifications the last couple days. I have been googling for the answer, and all I am finding so far is the question, and the date posted is always within the last couple days.
I am another that likes Go Launcher, but the notifications - especially the graphic notifications are extremely annoying.
I haven't used Go Launcher, but the other applications I've used that do that are generally easily replaceable. What I mean by that is I couldn't find a way to turn off the notifications in them, so it was easier and better to replace them.
I do believe Apex launcher can use Go Launcher themes, and it never caused any problems for me. Maybe the Go launcher compatibility is only in the paid version though. I don't recall since I'm just using the standard Trebuchet launcher in CM10.
Airblocker on the play store will block push ads, but I dont think GO is using ads but a notification which I think you can turn off thru settings in the theme store thing, been a while since I used it. Or you could try add on detector from the market to try and remove them, or lucky patcher may be able to strip the notifications
I like to break stuff!
I never found a way to disable those notifications, it's jsut part of the 'free' I guess. I used GO launcher for almost 2 years but I feel like it has gotten a bit bloated and they're trying to make an extension for nearly everything.
I tried a few other launchers but settled on Holo.

time to start looking at alternatives.. i assume this is Go Launcher doing this?
I have been experiencing the same. I had to abandoned Golauncher for Apex. Golauncher got absurd with the many updates of their launcher. Many of these updates deleted settings or apps. And made my phone unresponsive. Now Gosms is getting out of hand. I keep emailing them, first about that gochat crap that wouldn't go away. Now these texting of themes. But they don't email you back.

I went into the launchers data found in system root /data/data/com.gau.go.launcherex for my phone (LG Motion 4G not sure if the folder name will be different for others) using the File Explorer app, then I went into the folder named shared_prefs, I then opened all the apprecommended, gostore, and gamecenter, also the autocheck, featuredtheme and msgcenter .xml files with File Explorer's built in text editor and changed where it says standalone='yes' into 'false' saved changes to each one, File Explorer automaticaly saves a backup within the folder incase you mess up then I exited the app so far I haven't gotten any more automatic updated notifications
