Nova Launcher Prime:
Very lightweight with the default settings. Turn off animations on JB developer's menu and launcher configuration,and turn on Force GPU rendering and watch this bad boy take off!

Try adjusting height settings and rows and columns in the Nova settings.

I'll give Nova a shot. I was bummed to see that Apex was basically unusable on the Nexus 7.

Apex is great for me. You do need to set the the horizontal and vertical margins to small or none in the homescreen options for Apex though.

you know what, i thought i had tried that but apparently not. that fixed it.
thanks!

Guys, this is not a "show me your home screen thread". I created this to allow members to upload videos of how your launcher performs. Please don't deviate from the OP. Thanks.

Interesting. They probably had some code merged from the Note and left this in there. Even still, we don't have the hardware to take advantage of the S Pen.

How did you get to those settings?

but If your still wondering I found it under USB in the shortcuts

Thanks - but how is that easier? lol
I just long press my desktop in Apex, select shortcuts, select USB, and wala! choose mass storage, done.
Pretty easy to me. and thanks again

Are you running apex pro? My free version doesn't have the "USB" choice.
maybe its my rom I guess.

Nexus 7 Center Lockscreen clock??

Has anyone figured out how to get the lockscreen clock on Nexus 7 to be centered? It's been done with the Galaxy Nexus (i'm running JB AOKP) but not for Nexus 7 that i have seen. The same edits to make it work for galaxy nexus do NOTHING in the Nexus 7.
Anyone?

Mine looks centered. I use the tic-tac-toe swipe thing to unlock.

It's off center if you use circle unlock thing though.

More clarification.... I mean all the text is centered. If you see in all those examples the text is still right aligned, even if the clock is moved to the center. I want everything center aligned.

It's by design. Try widget locker, you can definitely make it larger or center it.

I realize it is by design, I want it changed. Ugh. I've already changed it for my galaxy nexus, but the same method doesn't work for nexus 7

It is actually not centered. Look at sides... And the text under it is not centered

Can't believe they screwed this up after the 4.1.2 update. Absolute schoolboy error.

2 install HTC framework and then install the prism.apk and the weather .apk

No no... You got it wrong.
What I meant to say is that I appreciate the share for I wanted to try this blinkfeed thing for quite some time now..... Now that I've experienced it I don't find it that interesting as a launcher... Just another news feed reader in my homescreen.
I don't know why I'm spreading my thoughts rather than cheering for the app!
Apologies if I expressed too much.
