I did a Google search and am shocked no ones even tried to pull from the system dump
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It has been attempted but the framework is so different that until there are stable ports to different devices it will not work out.
The one in the market to me just isn't good at all. I mean they did good work but just the fact that they insist on having those onscreen buttons there and not make them option is what bugs me the most. The app drawer is going to be a chore to try to even imitate. Like I said they do good work but they don't seem to take user input very seriously.
I feel the same about all android imitated launchers in the market, froyo, GB, ICS ex... But I think Ics is ugly anyways, that's why when it comes out for our phone, I will theme the hell out of it on day #1.

[Q] new touchwiz

the touchwiz ripped from the galaxy s III is pretty cool and a lot better then the stock one on our phone! i would use it for more then the one day if it work with the DPI @ 160 >.< .... what do you guys think do you use it? have you used anything else from the galaxy s III?
also could we flash it?!?

Well the launcher works...
but everything else will take a long time to port.
Works great on our phone and I flashed it

considering the fact that the gs3 is being launced with ICS, yes, you need ICS.
Hi. But this TW launcher can't be used in ICS with AOSP. It's true???

Looks pretty much like the stock ICS launcher w/ the 5 column tweak and a different icon for the app menu.

Ghostziden posted a link that led to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26392738
I downloaded the 4*5 one. I didn't flash, I put the lib file in system/lib and copied the system/app files, fixed permissions and reboot. I needed to make a bit of room in 'system' and I wouldn't bother trying calendar as op says it forcecloses. Launcher runs silky smooth though - my new favorite.

What is your preferred Launcher?

Not much of a TWiz fan. I've at one time swore by GoLauncher. As it got more bloated, it somewhat made my (previous) phones slow to a crawl. I decided to move away from it. Holo(HD) seemed to cover all the aspects that I needed in a Launcher. I've recently took a liking to 'Atom' Launcher very much.
What about you guys? Is everyone on Apex?
I'm just curious.....

Thanks. I searched using the XDA app but it turned up a lot in different areas. Sorry for the duplicate.. (then again, the Launcher world changes as much as phones are released... )

I use ilauncher and change the icons to cm10 jb styled icons.
Simply because the transition/resumes are smoother than any launcher to date. Just like iOS.

Go launcher all the way
SPB Shell 3D
It's pricey at $15 for an app, but hands down the best launcher I've used to date. I also was a GoLauncher fan, but it literally killed my wifes phone, and the search for a replacement led here. It has very cool features and built in widgets.
Which one?
I ask because there are a few in that range...?

Nova being 25 cents can live up to that hype. (for the billion app download sale)

Go launcher. Nova and apex are slow when scrolling through windows
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
To be honest i can't even decide on one. They are all awesome. However, i have ADWLauncher EX running now. The reason i am using it because i like their presets. There is one called Fast.... and OMG.... when i click on the drawer it shows up instantly and its SUPER smooth.... scrolling up and down ect.
Other then that im a Holo Launcher on my GN and my TFP
I like to use Nova

Was there a lawsuit regarding the use of similar functioning HTC flipclocks made by Beautiful Widgets and the others awhile back?
