Go Launcher HD for Tablets v1.0 Beta - Acer Iconia A500

I just stumbled across this today and so far I really like it. I was using the Trebuchet launcher on Thor's ICS v96, and although it does have a lot of customization it is slightly laggy. So far Go Launcher HD is running super smooth with no noticeable lag.

Looks really pretty. Let's go test it.
Thanks for notice.
Can you tell me, what is name of your weather widget?

It appears there is very minimal options available (It is a BETA, I will forgive them)
Themeing is not a option, yet.. Maybe keep an eye out.
I like the new dock, but they need to use more of the screen for available widgets, utilizing ALL of the screen.
I can compare say, Stock Launcher, to GoLauncher Ex, where the margins on the side are smaller, giving more space, maybe I am insane. At this stage, I have set up something, but I am not a huge fan and will go back to GoLauncherEX until they sort out the theme issue and give us more options. Hopefully they can implement all those of the normal EX and maybe some more? EG, making wallpapers work better (most of us are faced to use Multipicture Live to correct incorrect showing wallpaper)
in short, it is good, but not great.. yet. Hopefully with updates, this is fixed

It's only a beta but so far so good. I'm sure themes will be an option down the line, and I agree that the top and bottom margins are way too big.

Really like it can't wait to see what happens next really sleek and fast launcher compared to the phone ver. On tablets...

It's HD Widgets.

Looks to be out of beta now. I've decided to give it a run.

Click the link in the original post and scroll down to the download links. You will see this:
Download beta1: Please click here ---<< there is a line struck through this
Download beta2: Please click here ---<< there is a line struck through this
Download v1.0: Please click here

I saw after I posted running sense beta 1

I gave this a shot - though I have little patience for beta testing. I hate the dock and since there are basically no settings to speak of, I'll wait till they have a final release.

the font used is Helvitca. Not a free font and no i can not provide it. A little google might land you it illegally
clock is just digital clock widget with the date in black so you cant see
Instructions:::
Using Launcher Pro Plus or ADW Launcher
and
Desktop Visualizer
For Horizontal Widgets, Select the 4x1 Desktop Visualizer widget, load your 3x1 png and shortcut, and then resize it to 3x1 when placed on the homescreen
For vertical Widgets its straightforward. Widget size is 1x2.
If you want the dock set it in launcher pro and then use a transparent icon for the launcher in the middle. Transparent Icon not included​

Do you realize that each one of those builds is based off a different phone rom? They are all newly released Roms and I'm sure once he gets enough feedback on them he will settle on the best one or two and continue making them better.

The icons I found from this post from XDA. (thank you XDA user mikebeecham)
The background is from AndroidCentral. I typically roll black... always come back to this.
The ROM is Onyx 2.1 via Team Whiskey (leaked 2.2).
The 1x1 weather widget is Beautiful Widgets (I really do not like the 4x2 style).
I only have ONE screen... LP lets you have 15 icons at the bottom, that have swype gestures so there are really 30 apps I can open with nothing on my desktop and not opening the app drawer.
I find myself chocked full of lameness, in the sense that I rarely deviate from stock. About the only areas where I bother to customize is wallpapers and ringtones, though I have a massive collection of both courtesy of Ringdroid and Google image search.
And even there it seems that I tend to think a bit narrowly. Most all of my wallpapers are either artwork of Audrey Kawasaki or Sumi Keiichi.
Currently running TW's Obsidian v2...Heck, even my screen layout and icon positions have become a matter of course. I've kept my screen layout pretty much identical since July regardless of firmware.
I r the suk
If you got some good artwork/backgrounds, post em man!

I would...but it's actually REALLY A LOT LOL.
Furthermore it's stuff that is too easy to find if you understand how to use Google's Image search. Though wallpapers in our screen's native format are harder to come by (960x800), the aspect ratio of 1280x1024 traditional desktop wallpapers is nearly identical (1.2, compared to 1.25). An app like Wallpaper Set And Save will fit these with no discernible distortion.
In other words, I'm so lazy that I do not break out Irfanview and Gimp to custom resize, I just use backgrounds optimized for the 1280x1024 desktop resolution. Making that one change though opens up a world of millions of wallpapers to those like me who would rather look for new and interesting stuff than spend all day in image editing software resizing things....
Lazy I be.
Makes a lot of sense actually, thanks. Never really understood the point of those apps.
It reminded me of what your rockin

haha, that's awesome. Did you find that on androidcentral?
This background is hysterical to me.
And here are a few more that I found recently from either Google Images, XDA or Team Whiskeys site:

Xperia Arc Home (Runs great, no force closes!)

Thanks to an XDA user named Lef.teris here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970643&page=1, the system dump for the Sony Xperia Arc has been posted. Another user named Paolo599 ripped the home launcher (called Sony Ericsson Home)... this can be found:
http://www.multiupload.com/2YETWLF218
I've been using it for the last 20 minutes with no force closes. Sony decoupled it's launcher with it's Time and Mediascape apps, so I'm guessing this is why it's relatively pain free to use.
Try it out, it's very cool. You can drag and drop apps into the dockbar and it has a folder management system FOR the dockbar. 5 screens. Very clean looking. It's app drawer also has "pages" as well. Only thing I see wrong is that it's made for slightly bigger phones because the dock text is cut off.
Lemme know how you like it. I don't know if the demand is there, but I'm sure if the home works this good- all we need to grab is the walls and the sounds and we can transform the look of our Vibrant's pretty fast.

Nice, got any screenshots?
Of it in action on my phone? No. But this is what it generally looks like minus the widgets and the dock text (it's made for higher res phones) http://topnews.net.nz/images/sony-ericsson-xperia-arc-01.jpg
That's pretty clean.. I like the silver battery mod.
Pretty cool, always nice to have new options. It does look a little cut off at the bottom though.
Well, according to the Arc section- Sony has made everything in the launcher open source to distribute and mod so maybe someone can mess with the resolution?
Maybe a full on port?
In the short time you've been using it did you notice any selling points of the launcher beyond the look of it?

Folders, the app drawer looks nice, at least unique with custom ordering. Btw, its free, small, and you can switch off at any time, why do you need to be sold?
I dont need to be sold. Every launcher has its own set of features.. Was wondering what this launcher had.

The bottom doesn't line up because the Arc has a higher resolution than our phones. A dev is going to have to mess with it if they want it to be perfect.
I'm gonna add a screenshot or two of yours to the main post and give you credit.

The china market has started their price war? lol

This is certainly NOT Honeycomb. It's a Gingerbread lookalike which uses CM7 as base and is skinned like HC.

Should you use this as a daily ROM? I think yes. This is the most mature ICS rom Samsung has released, with 97% of things working. There will be people who don't like TWlauncher, but it's just a matter of haters gonna' hate. Besides, there will probably be a lot more people complaining if things were drasticaly changed.
