Poll: What launcher are you using on your GS2? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Just curious as to what is the most popular launcher used by the forumites. I am currently using ADW launcher.

Im using Go launcher. Been using it for a while. Its very smooth for me, and I like the task killer in the app drawer. Also very customizable, and lots of themes to choose from. Most are free to.

Touchwiz on Jugg 4.0
Does the job, looks good. Altho GoLauncher is also good and free, no lag.

ADW EX

Using Launcher Pro.

I'm using 360 Launcher. It's pretty solid. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1345601
I'm currently using the Android 4.0 theme and combined with Jug 4.0 it is working out pretty well.

I'm using ADW Ex. Got it through the 10 cent christmas sale. My only quarrel would be how slow the app draw pulls up :/

I've tried them all.. I found that launcher pro performs the best, no lag and looks clean..

I used to use Launcher Pro then switched to Go Launcher for the past 3 months.

I've used both Go Launcher and Zeam. Like them both. Right now I'm using Go on my SGS2 and Zeam on my Touchpad that I've ported MIUI on.

i like both but i like launcher pro for the message widget design. i haven't touched ADW since ADW EX beta came out so i wouldn't know if it has similar widgets as well.

Fav Launcher please

I am currently using Redux rom and Go Launcher.
What about you guys.
Supernova rom with Go launcher EX
Reflex S 2.1.9 with hTC Sense (I really fancy Sense with those knicks and knacks of it) or Devnull 1.1 with Launcher Pro +
I use both ROM (when i get bored with one then i switched to the other by restoring from reco)
MIUI with ADW EX
Oxygen with LauncherPro.
AuraxTremeGinger with LauncherPro.
Zeam is fast too, though it misses some options for dock customization.
Yeah Go Launcher Ex. I used LauncherPro Plus for ages, but homescreen transitions were not smooth on the virtual loop. Go is much better at that and faster too.
i'm using ADW launcher EX might have to try out go launcher ex

These three are the most common for a reason.
AOKP is packed full of features
Kernel lasts forever and has constant updates
Nova Launcher is like the stock launcher but makes it great by adding some extra features.

I tried Launcher Pro when I first got the Nexus, only issue I had was when I tried to use the Calendar widget the launcher would get fc's. If I didn't use the calendar widget I had no issues. Now I use Nova Launcher and love it.
I use Handcent without issues on the Nexus.

It's similar, feature wise I'd say LP has more at the moment. But considering Nova is still relatively new I'd say it will get more features in the future, Nova is more of an extension of the stock launcher.

Launchers

I love the TW launcher speed but I hate the folders and 4 icons down kills me with the big screen, I have used apex most of the time but I find it laggy compared to TW, any recommendations for a good launcher or does anyone have a TW launcher apk to share (mod of course)
Btw I'm trying nova it looks more optimized then apex for some reason, I'm using wicked rom

I use Zeam right now. Its super fast and I managed to tweak it almost exactly how i wanted. I'm migrating to LauncherPro because it has that ONE feature Zeam doesn't (hide apps in drawer).

I am using holo launcher. Also gingerbread launcher is buttery smooth and than some! Tried it out last month mostly because of TW ugly green theme (why I ask why?)
