lightest launcher program

I'm running the nexus at normal speeds 1.2max - what launcher do you guys prefer? I'm not huge into tweaking so a few options would be nice but I'm more concerned with the launcher running snappy

apex or nova are the better

I vote Nova. If you go to the settings and get the beta version (1.3b5 at the time of writing) it's even better, with the Jelly bean code rewrite same as Apex.

Holo Launcher HD + Holo Launcher Plus. Works great for me without being too over the top with customizations. Always runs snappy for me as well. No problems.

+1 for Apex

If you're not into customizing and want just light and fast launcher, just go with stock.

Probably Nova

I'm using Nova Launcher and enjoying so far. I didn't try other launchers yet.
And i'm not into tweaking that much either. I'm all stock running Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and rooted. That's all

I bought apex, tsf, and adw but all I use is golauncher. It is the smoothest one of them all for me.

But I have Holo HD and love it, is simple and fast

Question: other than a nice UI and all, whats the benefit of using a nova or apex launchers? More free ram? Faster?
If its sits on top of stock doesn't just collect more ram? If so can one replace the launcher completely?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Stock is the fastest of all if you only care about speed.
Other than that Nova and Apex are almost as fast too(specially Nova), but with customizing options

Atom Launcher.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Nova no doubt. It is way faster than stock if you remove the animations. It gives you the option to speed up/down the animations and transitions and by that you can make the phone blazing fast.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I have used both Apex and Nova.. and Nova is the one I like the best

Zeam is probably the most lightweight

Lockscreen widgets

Hey guys
I was wondering what lock screen widgets are you guys using?
I'll start:
HD widgets

Uccw, FTW!

HD widgets are awesome but I've found it taken almost 10% of my daily battery usage...
Might have to ditch them

Hd widgets and falcon for twitter

Widgetsoid works too. Nice quick toggles for when password protected and you can't open notifications

Same here. I was looking for something other than that ugly clock, and this app is perfect.

But the edges are cut off on every skin regardless the size of the widget...or am I doing something wrong?

Fixed 4.2 clock is great looking. I use HD widgets too.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

How do you get more widgets on the lock screen then the 5
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Some widgets have been updated to work with the 4.2 lock screen like the ones mentioned above. More will be available as developers update their apps.

i have next launcher now but every time i press my home button it goes to the stock launcher :| and it has to load every time i come out of an app

Try to set the default launcher - next launcher, it is somewhere in phone settings or it might be in launcher settings too.
