Have installed adw ex on my Transformer, I love it, except the top row, with the adw icon, adw unlock etc.
Is it possible to remove it, and if so how?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
I don't think it's possible.
You'll get use to it. I don't even notice it anymore.
Can someone post a screen of this, I'm curious to what you guys are talking about.

I didn't get used to the intrusive logo or lock desktop icon and message so went back to the stock launcher.

Wtf? Why is there a persistent logo on a launcher?
Jeez ander....
Tried LLP and it works better, but I can't remove the dock on LP. And can't
use swipe up to open appdrawer.
Guess I'll have to write to ADW and ask for a option to remove it.
I have been writingsoftware for ages and that is why I stay away from UX. Cannot please everyone (including me LOL)

This kinda stopped me from using ADW too...it would be nice if 'lock desktop' could be replaced with 'Apps' or any option we like.
I did email the dev about this a while ago when the Transformer came out but the reply sounded like it won't be updated.
Is there another launcher that removes the top row, enable swipe up/down and without or capable to hide the dock?

Try GO Launcher, it has swipe up/down also.
Only thing is it's not in the Market but you can side load it plus it's jsut not as good as ADW EX but that's just my opinion.
On the plus side it has gestures and you can resize widgets like the default launcher
Somebody on the post your home screen page had removed the logo, I wish there was adw that integrated the stock features like holographic, and Google search

Only if we could have ADW + Stock top (with the My Apps and + button)
that would be PERFECT.
From what I've read on the adw thread in the theme forum, the developer is working on being able to get rid of that top adw button and quite possibly even getting rid of that whole upper section too.
I tried Launcher pro and even optimized it but it still didn't feel as smooth and responsive as adw. I honestly think adw is perfect except for that top icon section.

Missing ADW Settings
Hey all, I think I could live with the bar at the top (although I agree it's a little obnoxious), but I can't get to any of the standard ADW settings. They're just blank. I'm not sure how to take a screenshot or I'd attach it. Any thoughts? Do I need to root my transformer for it to work?

No root needed to use ADW EX launcher.
To take screen shot you can use the native function.
Go into Settings>Screen>Click on the Screenshot box.
Now when you press and hold the Recent Apps key it will take a screenshot.

I just switched from sense to Launcher Pro Beta, and I must say that it is amazing... It's just so much more predictable and useful, not to mention faster and smoother. On top of that, from what I have heard, it is great for battery life, just switched so I haven't had a chance to test that out yet.
If you haven't given it a shot yet, download it from the market and try it out, I promise you will not regret it. Its MUCH better than sense. I never had a problem with sense, but I just figured Id try something new, and it paid off...
P.S Does anybody know if the new software patch that came out today will be included in any of the developers roms? I'm not to sure how that stuff works.
ADW.Launcher is also a worthy alternative, imo. Very customizable.

There should be an updated DamageControl out tonight built off the OTA.
And yes, LauncherPro is definitely the best launcher that I've used! I love it!

Press the Home key, and you should get an option to select between HTC Sense, Launcher, and LauncherPro. If that doesn't work, just download Home Switcher from the Market.

There we go, thank you.
I loved the extra speed and how the shortcuts were laid out. I also liked that you didnt have to have the writing under each icon. BUT I missed my full screen calendar, toggle widgets, etc. So Im back to sense. I dont have access to these when using a different launcher. Am I doing something wrong?

You can't use HTC widgets outside of the Sense launcher. However, there are replacement widgets in the Market for almost everything you are missing. For example, Pure Grid Calendar Widget and Weather & Toggle Widgets.

I played around with it after that post, but just couldnt get it how I wanted it AGAIN. So Im back to sense haha. I really need 6 icons on the dock at the bottom to avoid extra icons on my home screen. I also wanted a 4G toggle to match the rest, and that doesnt seem to be out. The only one out (that I could find) is a light bulb..

You know with LauncherPro you can change it to 5 rows of icons (20 total) on the screen at once, right? You can potentially have 28 more slots than with Sense.

Im talking about JUST the dock at the bottom. Not shortcuts added to the screen itself. Right now I have the rosie bar at the bottom that launches my app drawer/phone/etc. Then I have 4 icons above it. Handcent, Gmail, Internet and People. With LauncherPro I can have all 4 of those on the dock, but then the 5th spot is taken by either the app drawer or phone. I want both. I know you can do the scroll thing, but its not the same. I just like a simple look and wanted everything I have now on my HOME screen.
Here is the setup now. I want all of the same access on the home screen, and it cant be done with LauncerPro. 5 short cuts on the dock and then a random widget on the screen just wouldnt look as clean.

ADW.Launcher works pretty good.
A few things I like:
- You can make as many columns and rows of Icons as you want per screen (up to 8 x 8, so that would be 64 icons per screen).
- Swipe down anywhere on a screen to make the top bar come down
Been looking a ADW over @ modaco!
Now we've got 2.1, anyone here tried Launcherpro?
I've tried both.
Launcher Pro is very slick however you are stuck with 4 x 4 icons as far as I can tell.
ADW you can put more icons on the screen and can also lock it into portrait by using the persistence option, so that's what I use now (even though I'd previously paid for Launcher Pro on my last phone, d'oh).
Been messing with ADW over the last hour, I've got so much more screen space, i'm not sure what to do with it all
Also sorted my fancy widget, which 2.1 really screwed up.

I've tried ADW after reading this and it looks like it has real potential but I have a daft question. How do you add icons to the desktop? I've tried dragging them from the drawer as per the stock launcher but they just disappear and I've tried creating shortcuts but that just seems to launch the app.
Toute, if holding your finger on the screen and choosing shortcut -then application-then choose app- launches the app then some thing is wrong and I recommend reinstalling adw
It should work in the same way as the standard launcher, except dragging from the app menu-which has never worked for me

When in ADW in landscape look to the right side of screen you should see a vertical bar with two shortcut icons and what looks like a grid.
Tap the grid this will launch the ADW app drawer (black backround etc) scroll to the app you want then just tap it.
This is an awesome bit of kit, it's like have two phones, trying to set it up so i've got the Dell launcher for work and ADW for play. Sought of 'SPAS-12' with pump or auto.

Thanks Checkbox, that's pretty much the same as the drop down drawer, neither is too convenient when you have loads of apps. Besides, I've got 5 screens to play with, it would be criminal not to fill them all up with my most used apps. I can separate them by type this way too, general/work/games/photography/technical etc.
If you want the look of ADW in 'Streak Launcher' try Multicon Widget http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.h9kdroid.multicon
Awesome
Running launcher pro and its awesome. I thought it was possible to change the location of the of the dock to one of the four sides of the screen (top, bottm, left, and right). Has this feature been removed or am I missing something?
thanks cheers.
launcher pro or go launcher if u want resizeable widgets
launcher pro if u want 6 x 8 icons
go launch if u want 30 desktops

Not so awesome under Stage UI. The icons are not spaced correctly. The icons show up in groups of four and don't look like it flows like the Multicon homepage shows. Also there's wasted space between Fancy Widget and the Multicon icons.

ADW Launcher widget problems
Hi all,
I recently got the Kindle Fire version 10.2.3, and installed ADW Launcher for it. This worked fine, but then a few days after installing, one of my widgets stopped displaying. I tried to remove the widget and add it again, but after removing it I couldn't get it back. When I clicked on the "widget" button to add it, nothing happened.
I tried to remedy this by updating to ADW Ex, and everything else worked fine, but again, I cannot add or alter or do anything with widgets.
When I press down on the home screen and the options pop up, all of them work, except for 'widgets'. I can see the icon, but upon pressing it nothing happens.
I have deleted and reinstalled both ADW and ADW Ex several times, and always the same happens. I don't know what to do! It's really annoying because ADW seems to be the only launcher that works with this version of the Fire. But the widgets are a central function of the launcher and I want them to work!
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance!
This latest update completely re-arranged my dock/icons/folder groups.

There is an option in settings to disable the dock bar completely.
That is all i noticed.
Yeah,
Latest ADW launcher EX updates just made a complete mess of my 'hubs' style homescreens setup. I'm really pissed off.
Even if they have reverted the option to disable the now-unified dock bar with the .56 update, I still have my vertically arranged 'simple text' icons shifted-off to the right (leaving a wastelando of screen realstate to the left of the tab) and the ones I had on the right hand side are completely gone! Damn!
To top that, I had a toggle icon on my homescreen linked to the "Show/Hide ActionBar" ADW action ...and that option is now completely gone! My icon does nothing and I don't find a way to hide the top action bar where the access to the ADW settings is, for example.

Bind the Show/Hide to swipe up our down and you should be good. Also, you can readd the shortcut as a custom shortcut to launcher actions.
After you do all that just to get back to the way it used to work what benefit do you get from updating to the latest version?

That is when you hide the toolbar and your custom menu in adwex is not hidden. If you try to hide some of the custom menu, in my case- I leave 3 items, that setting/menu will still show but useless.. try it and see.
I've tried to set up a wallpaper but it is cropped very bad, I can see only the upper side. I've tried MultiPicture Live Wallpaper but it makes the tablet a bit laggy. Is there a way to set a wallpaper that looks good on AdwLauncher EX?
I wish there was a third-party launcher that didn't feel like it was ported from a phone version. I like the built in google search and app drawer in the stock launcher and I'd really just like to be able to change the number of home screens.

Wow, I didn't realize ADW made the wallpaper look so different. Maybe try setting the wallpaper with another gallery app like quickpic? There's also a non-market app that's designed to set the Tab's wallpaper without hacking off the edges like the stock gallery does, but I forget what it's called.

Hey all, I've got a question. I'm running stock root on my NC with LauncherPro, and for whatever reason, I can't change the shortcuts on the dock. I want to change them to programs I actually have - by default, I don't have a messaging or phone app. Whenever I try to change the shortcut (by holding down on the icon and then going to change it), LauncherPro launches the previous app I had open. Has anyone else had this problem?
I am open to switching launchers - I just use LauncherPro on my phone so I know how to work it. I'm looking for a really fast, minimalistic-launcher. GoLauncher is too feature heavy, and it makes my NC lag. Zeam launcher also lags a lot. I want something very snappy and fluid, even if it is lacking in features.

Hey all, I've got a question. I'm running stock root on my NC with LauncherPro, and for whatever reason, I can't change the shortcuts on the dock. I want to change them to programs I actually have - by default, I don't have a messaging or phone app. Whenever I try to change the shortcut (by holding down on the icon and then going to change it), LauncherPro launches the previous app I had open. Has anyone else had this problem?
I am open to switching launchers - I just use LauncherPro on my phone so I know how to work it. I'm looking for a really fast, minimalistic-launcher. GoLauncher is too feature heavy, and it makes my NC lag.

Make sure your homepage isn't locked.... then long press one of the ones you want to get rid of and delete it... then the others
Then you can add the ones you want
What do you mean, locked? I've tried doing just that - long pressing and removing it, but it doesn't work.

When you push menu on the home page, there is an option to lock the homepage so you don't accidently mess it up. It is a toggle so just tap it to unlock.
Oh, is there? I can't for the life of me find it. Whenever I press home, lock isn't one of the options.

Not home, menu once you are on the home screen. It may not be on the first menu, you may have to push more or advanced or something, but it is there.
Yeah, that's what I'm doing. I looked under all of the settings - from advanced settings to Appearence, and there's no lock home screen option, or anything like it in Launcherpro.

Well, obviously it is locked so launcher pro must have that setting somewhere. Look in their documentation. For most the other launchers it is in menu on home screen, not in settings.
I installed ADW launcher and uninstalled launcher pro. The lock option is there, but it doesn't change a thing - even with it unlocked, it, still launching the previous app instead of letting me edit the shortcut.
You say you are on rooted stock. Which dock are you talking about? The stock dock or the one that comes with the launcher? Its been a long time since I used stock and cannot picture what you are trying to do.

I have two docks, so to speak - the default Nook one, pictured here (just without that arrow in the middle. NOT the book dock, the black bar at the bottom)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And then I have the launcher dock - right now, the ADW launcher dock. Whenever I go to change the short cut on the launcher dock, whether it's ADW or LauncherPro, it kicks me out of the settings window and throws me to the previous program I was using. I tried "unlocking" the dock in the ADW options like suggested, but it still happens.
Ok that thing you have pictured is not a dock, it is the status bar and should always be there even if you have another launcher loaded. The dock is a black bar above that. And on my system you change what is on the adw dock by dragging shortcuts off and on to it. But in order to do that the desktop must be unlocked. Your description of going to a settings window in adw to change shortcuts on the dock does not compute for me.
