hi to all,
there is a lots of launcher on android market. I just want the best visual looking Launcher ?? anyone can help !!
As far as i know .. Go launcher is the best looking ??
Depends on what you define a visually the best. Go is more polished than ADW or Launcher Pro. But the last 2 can be customized more with themes, although Go is catching up really fast. Then you have SPB Shell 3D, which I think is the best looking, but personally I like the Go experience more all together.

Go is great for themes and such, different ones released all the time and often free. ADW and vtlauncher share a base but go completely different directions. ADW is closer to go and vtl is really good if your a landscape lover. More functions than looks though.
DxTop is one I thought looked slick (enough so I remember the name and have been considering jumping to it. Oh and zeam launcher. There was one I found and I swear it was CClauncher but its gone from market or, and more likely, I have the name wrong. I have GO as fallback but the only way you'll find what appeals to you is through trial and error imo
There is endless choice and all appeal to different folk for different reasons.

Second that. I have paid for mine and when I get my Arc today it is going straight on it.
Launcher7 looks good if you like WP7:

+1. I like it a lot, visually. Too bad it lags my O2X. Try 360launcher, it looks great & polished too.

I was just wondering if it was possible to make the 3D app drawer for the Gingerbread launcher work correctly for MDPI devices because I really like it as I have seen it on a friends G2. If anybody could make this work with the stock Gingerbread launcher I would be eternally greatful. Edit: (BTW I am on CM7 latest nightly)
Update: This is what it looks like from the stock:

quick question
why would you want to use a gingerbread launcher if you are running a gingerbread based rom?? (cm7)

You can use Launcherpro or adw ex and dress them up like Launcher2 and then you get the 3D effect. Or you can google launcher2(android's actual launcher as seen on vanilla) and install that. Make sure the L2 is gingerbread and not the froyo version.

Yeah could you send me the link to it because I can't seem to find it in the SDK and how would I go about pushing it in ADB?

You sir, are an idiot. ADW has more configurable options than any other available launcher. If you are speaking only about the animations, then yes, the free version sucks, but the only $2 ADW Ex launcher fixes all the laggy animations, and adds 8 more screen effects for transitions. Easily the best launcher out there.
You must be high. It's okay, I won't judge.

If you just use the vanilla launcher, you won't have 3D. The vanilla launcher is almost the same as the ones on the market. They are 2D for mdpi, and 3D for hdpi. Google never released drawables for the 3D launcher for mdpi.
You sir are flaming, and clearly I know EX has more customizations as I bought it and have used it all through my CM6 days I just like the stock launcher jeez.

Launcher Pro works well enough.
I mean, I haven't used the stock one, but I would think you could get it to be very similar.
I know there three launchers i know there GO Launcher ,the ADW and the stock senes ... i am run on the Gingerbread evo deck rom
Personal preference really. I prefer Launcher Pro out of all of them
Sent from "Deebo The Evo" via XDA premium
I use launcher pro.
AdwEX since it launched!
Sent from my PC36100
Preference aside i.e. Interface etc. Which uses less system resources namely battery and is more stable? I'm personally on deck's latest build always and tiamat 4.0.5. I'm a noob to forum posts but have been reading since I got the evo in April.
P.s. Love the forum, devs and android community as a whole. parting with iPhone was easier than I thought.
Thanks
GoLauncherEx is the best for me.
I've messed around with ADW, but I didn't see any real advantage using that over the launcher that's built into Deck's newest ROM.
Are there any solid advantages with using a launcher?
i use launcher pro
If you're looking for something light on resources, use Zeam. Customization is minimal, but the launcher uses much less power than others.
Personally, I prefer ADW Ex. I bought it when it first came out, before that I used the regular ADW and LauncherPro Plus. I switched back to LPP for almost a month not too long ago, but missed the hidden dock & screen moving/deleting in ADW and switched back. I never cared for any of the Go apps.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
Though it doesn't have some of the features of the others, I've always found Launcher Pro to feel snappier than the others. Heck, try 'em all, they have free versions.
launcher pro here. love the widget integration and scrollable dock. These features might be available on other launchers but I'm happy so I've never looked into it.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I agree with try them all. It's truly a matter of taste. It's sorta like asking which ROM is the best one.
That being said, I personally like GO Launcher. The level of customization really is everything I could ask for.
I switched to launcher 7.....I'm smitten <3 (CM7 under the hood)

I have always used LauncherPro Plus. I love the sizable widgets and the facebook widget is awesome!
Launcher pro is nice... but I really love the zeam launcher.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Gotta give another vote for LauncherPro Plus! I was on Go Launcher for a couple of weeks, but as soon as I switched back I noticed how much faster and smoother LPP is. Try it, buy it.
is there any launcher that would work with the HTC ?, so far i tried ADW, Launcher Pro and GoLauncher and all of the got the anoying settings button at the bottom, is there any way to remove it ?
the reason to why i want a different launcher is that i dont like the horizontal scroll of the app drawer, lame of HTC not to add a vertical option, -.-

Human nature I guess, we normally badly crave for what we don't have, then we lost interest once we got it.

This and reconfigurable rows/columns are the only biggies. Widgets in app drawer would be a huge plus too. I imagine someone will start playing with these things soon enough I'd be quite happy with a stock looking launcher with a few more options.

Wich is the best launcher for samsung galaxy ace ?
sory for my bad english
general section please
Depends on what u are going to use it for
Features:Go Launcher EX
Speed:ADW,Launcher pro
Smooth:Xperia Home
Good overall performance:Touchwizz (Only it lacks some features)
Please rather test them all and see for your self (Next time)
I'm going to say Go Launcher I've been using it for a while and it hasn't slowed at all, not to mention the speed and countless features. Its completely customisable and theres unlimited amounts of themes to choose from

But it has high memory usage so it does have performance impacts on the rest of the phone.
It obviously depends on your tastes, for looks and speed I would recommend Holo launcher.

It uses less memory/ram usage as the default cyanogenmod 7 launcher (Aka ADW Launcher)
And if you still don't want to use it my second choice would be Xperia Launcher (Can be found in the galaxy ace Themes and Apps area)
Good luck on your search ^^
