What's Your Favourite Launcher? - Nexus One General

Being using Go Launcher for ages now. Great amount of options and works flawlessly.
Apex Launcher on ICS was my main choice.
However I always had a fancy towards MIUI Launcher. Using CM7 I'm very pleased to now be using QQ Launcher. Buttery smooth to the extreme, it's a fantastic choice for those on CM7 (and upwards!)
What's your choice launcher then?

Holo Launcher...very smooth on Nexus One and gives ICS feel on Gingerbread.

Now for me it's xperia S launcher

TO CHEFS: Launcher Suggestion for your ROMs

To all the Chefs out there that are cooking up these delicious ROMs we are so blessed with everyday. We know that most of you use LauncherPro for your ROMs. Last month I was using a launcher called GO Launcher. It is free, includes options that only the paid LauncherPro Plus includes. It is stable and has a very active dev team that is really passionate about perfecting their launcher. Just a suggestion. Check it out and see if it something you prefer. Think it would be neat to see it in some ROMs.
Go launcher is old news but its a good advice however this is the wrong section this needs to.go in general

Too many add onns too much memory and space. My view is no. good program way to big and resource hog. Go sms is huge resource hog

Go launcher isnt old news cause it's one of the newest out there LOL It's smoother, faster and better than Launcher Pro and best of all it's free! With Go SMS and Go contacts and themes that match all 3 you cant go wrong with Go

I like go sms, but not go launcher. I prefer adw launcher. I like the hidden dock bar.

What? I didn't know ADW has a hidden dock bar. Is that ADW EX or the free one?

Just cause you like go launcher it don't mean we do. If you don't like launcher pro install go launcher from the market.

i think it was the urban fury or the nova roms that were using go launcher for some time, and honestly, kinda slow. rob's midnight is super fast with launcher pro as well as ACS's roms with launcher pro.
Why don't u make your own Tom using go launcher? Then u don't have to worry if it has launcher pro. I don't understand why u are even complaining. Its not hard to dl go launcher from the market.

Maybe a little too harsh..
I mean he did thank the devs, but then again he's kinda being selfish reason being stated in quote...

Relax
He is simply suggesting and commenting on a launcher he thinks is suitable. He is not in any way telling Devs. what to include in the Roms. Some of you take this a bit too serious.

Go Launcher is meh, but Zeam is great for ROMS. I did switched to ADW after I learned it too had a hidden dockbar like Zeam.
And just as a side note, Go launcher also includes a hidden dockbar. I would be intersted, however, to learn the memory/battery impact of the different launchers. I would imagine that the more options it has the more resources it uses.

I just checked out Zeam and I didn't see a hidden dock bar. If it had it, that would be perfect. It is definitely nice and lightweight.

Zeam is great! I have been using it for months now. Its light and never has failed on me.

Curious why you want the stock AOSP launcher... It provides no features no settings, and can possibly be slower than one of the launcher apps.
I haven't tried Slim ICS so idk what launcher they use, but I would recommend NOVA LAUNCHER, its pure ICS and if you don't want to change anything you don't have to tons of settings though.
Slim uses Zeam by default and IMO it's snappier. I just don't like the options it offers
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
oh well then I suggest you try out Nova Launcher if you want a more AOSP launcher along with plenty of features.
Idk yet. The script tweaks plus build.prop tweaks and gpu made the launcher run buttery smooth. I want to replicate the galaxy nexus expierence

Here's the stock launcher (launcher2.apk). I pulled it from ICZen.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17980900/Launcher2.apk
put it in /system/app and make the permissions rw-r--r-- like the other system apps. reboot. You might have to clear the default setting for Zeam in manage apps and reboot again.
Thank you.

[Q] Apex launcher and smart cover

I noticed after installing apex that my smart cover wasn't putting the screen to sleep anymore. Is there a setting for apex that I just can't find? Or is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Install apex launcher or nova launcher from the play store.

Nova works well...

Go

Anyone else use the "GO" products. I use them on all my devices and love it.

I personally don't like them because they are like extra bloatware. I use Nova Launcher and Nox icons
