Am I the only one that cant seem to get go launcher running as smoothly as launcher pro plus? I really want to use it as a daily launcher but it just doesnt seem to as fluid :|

Works fine for me! Best launcher, most configurable.

Any screenshots of this 3D drawer?

I never have any issues with launchers but go launcher has never been fluid for me. This goes back to my samsung vibrant and the homescreens switch smooth but menu is choppy. I still use it everyday though lol.

Go launcher tries to be too much... LP+ FTW!

I have tried most launchers, Go launcher Ex is the best in my opinion. I actually thought that touchwiz was based on it.

I think all laucher always decrease battery life!

So where's the download? Or is it inside the new GO launcher beta?

Honestly, I tried go launcher and it seemed good till all my widgets were in place. Launcherpro and adw ex are the only two that can handle my setup and remain completely smooth in performance. Eventually I found adw ex to be the better of the two, though it redraws more often than launcherpro did.

Used adw ex pro for long enough, then switched to launcher pro, i know the insides and outs of both, on go launcher now and not going back

Too slow for me. LPP or ADW are smoothest.

Go has improved significantly, but for my setup the widgets of launcher pro swings it for me.

Go Launcher EX 3D drawer is clearly faster than ADW EX 3D (transparent). LP still does not have transparent 3D drawer so cannot argue, but I'm sure it would be fastest. It's simply way smoother than any other launcher when it comes to extra desktop transitions and 3D drawer.
ADW EX would be my favorite launcher, but it constantly suffers from tiny lag when you have seven homescreens and stuff on most of them. It's not bad, but it always comes up enough to not feel super smooth.

1. Wrong section. (Themes/Apps)
2. Why are you posting this? We would already know if we were using it (Update) and its really just a feature.

favorite launcher?

what is everyone's favorite launcher? Also are there any that will act like ICS but for users who are on stock rom?

Go launcher
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

+1 for Go Launcher. The ICS theme available for it is very slick if you're going for that look. For all other intents and purposes it gets updated more frequently than any other launcher available, lots of features and transition effects.

adw Ex
Adw ex the paid version i like the new version with the scrolling dock and the fact i can make the dock icons so large.

Go launcher or nova launcher on cm9. Spb shell is also very visually appealing but the slow speed and lack of options is why I cannot use it all the time.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

Adw EX Launcher : you can argue with it it's just the fastest; it's SUPER snappy. Go Launcher is full of options but it get slower and slower. Like most of the Go Team products : starts great then it goes in all directions and becomes a factory...
Try scrolling the app drawer in vertical mode in Go Launcher then in ADW...and feel the pain for Go.

I used Go launcher for a little bit. Its really slow. I got ADW EX launcher for .10¢ during that sale and stuck with it ever since.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

adw ex for me!!!!!!!! i also have launcher pro and vtl launcher

Louncher Pro for me.

I use launcher pro, just feels the fastest

GO Launcher only.

ADW EX
Go Launcher would be nice except for 2 things that annoy me:
1) can't overlap Widgets
2) can't hide/remove home button from app drawer.

ADW EX....

ADW EX for me but currently testing sslauncher. Great launcher with potential.

adw scrolling performance is far WORSE on my phone than go launcher.

title says it all

Apex launcher. Its free on the market. Its been smooth with no FC's and I like the app drawer better than Nova or Trebuchet

The stock one
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

Re: Launcher
I prefer to use nova launcher, trebuchet now is unable to uninstall apps using the drag and drop method. Nova is faster in my instance and able to run through the widget screens without lag

+1 Apex Launcher is smooth, and it also has all of Nova's Features and More. (Plus it's free )

I use the Nova launcher. Pretty close to ICS as I see it but the cube animation is a lot like golauncher which I use on my tablet.

I use the trebuchet, its the smoothest so far compared to all others

Been giving apex a go an its my new fave

I've been using nova but apex has such good reviews from what I've seen I'm downloading it now

+1 to add, enabling the wallpaper hack bypasses any bugs with static wallpapers. No static wallpaper scrolling? ADW. Plus full settings backup and desktop configuration backup to SD card for us flash addicts.

Since I am content running the Black Ice rom, I decided to use the zeam launcher that comes with it. I had to force myself to stop using GO Launcher, because i felt it was useless to change roms, if i was just going to put the same Launcher over it.
Sent from my Black Ice'd Glacier using xda premium

I tried them all. At first I liked Nova but then switched to the default 'launcher' however after updating to zips 3.11, the default launcher no longer exists.

Which launcher do you prefer and why?

Title says it all. I am currently using Apex, but have wondered about Nova, Trebuchet etc...
Is there much of a difference between them? Also, if you select 'always' when asked which launcher to use (if you have more than one loaded) is there anyway to reverse that to use a different one?
BTW, I am using TWA_privs latest (0223) ROM and its unbelievably good...
Thanks....
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

I use the stock CM10.1 launcher. Trebuchet, I like the layout and settings for it. And t change launchers, go to setting an find the launcher you currently use user apps. And click clear defualts

For CM7 I prefer ADW EX and for 4.x.x+, I prefer Trebuchet I try to avoid launchers that will show up in the running category under Settings- Apps like Go Launcher and the newest ADW. The less running processes the better IS MY OPINION because the Kindle's limited memory.
I have grown to love Trebuchet because it usually is included as the stock launcher for JB ROMs. The reason I like ADW EX for CM7 is because ADW was included on the CM7 ROMs and one day I wanted to try the EX version of it and it was quite nice with the density hack to make the icons appear bigger.

I use holo launcher hd. It looks and acts a lot like apex and trebuchet, but has HD in the name (so its gotta be good!).

Try chameleon launcher..u would not come back to apex or trebuchet pr anything..and spb shell 3d is also a great launcher..very smooth..keep in mind that chameleon launcher is landscape only..

Chameleon Launcher is a good concept, but it never quite caught on. At first they released it for $12 in the play store. I got it and it need a lot of work it was still betas. I got a refund and haven't tried it since. I was reading reviews and it still is not up to par, with little actual customization and limited widgets. Makes it almost seem like ios

Best - Third Party Launcher

Post here which third party launcher you guys are using
I'm using inspire launcher & it works so smooth

Touchwiz ...and forever touchwiz

I usually use Google Launcher with Xposed GEL settings
but as for third party launchers, I prefer Inspire Launcher or Next Launcher
On a side note, "Best" anything threads are discouraged on XDA

Best ???, choose what you like most.
For me Nova Launcher works fine.

GO launcher
i have searched NOVA launcher as best , but i find Go launcher nicer than Nova in some points like : I am not able to hide app like i can do in GO launcher, other like nice effect and icon in go launcher ( yes, you can install huge icon pack in go launcher).
:good: try go and Nova launcher and share your experience here.:good::good:
[ tried Dodol and themer beta, they have cool themes but i dont like those much ]
