Ah. Well thank you, but that failed gloriously. Replaced the stock launcher with root explorer, changed to original's permissions. still resulted in a continuous force close cycle. thank god this phone comes with a second launcher (easy mode) that i could switch to to restore the old launcher apk.

Any luck getting this working? I'm not

i went back to Nova and honestly i like the notification on app icon and i only lost Accuweather widget. i would go back but have owned Apex for a long time but Nova just seems easier and imports my TW settings

i had setup all my widgets and app in folders etc... in TW and when i launched Nova it asked if i waned to import settings i choose yes and then i had the option to choose TW and so all my apps and folders were there. some of the widgets may not populate but being root all mine did except accuweather

[Q] ICS Launcher

So today I was browsing the Google Play store and I found this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.SyndicateApps.ICSv2
Has anyone from here tried this and is it any good? Hopefully it can't brick the phone, right?

Just did a try with "Go Launcher EX" and "ICS Theme Go Launcher EX". The menu was white and the text wasn't visible, just the app icons.
yeah I tried it
its nice and looks like ics, but there is a problem in the labeles of the applications in the app drawer
n its slow
if u want ics theme, crack adw launcher ex and download ics theme.
Or just get Phoenix launcher. Still under development but looks great already. And the widget tab in the app drawer actually works.

It may be me misunderstanding. I'm thinking of using the stock launcher with a different rom,.You download the launcher just like any other app then click on ot to install it. Its on here in either the Razr M forum or the Android apps forum. I can't remember its been a while since i downloaded it.
I tried using apex and it was pretty laggy. Nova is a lot better so far but one out of maybe every 30 times I exit a app to go to the homescreen the motoblur stock launcher appears instead of nova until I go to a new screen. Kinda Annoying. Any idea how to fix?
Can I change the color of the status bar icons like the battery, signal strength and time? without root?

Well yeah nova IMO is a little smoother but apex has free gestures. And no idea about ur launcher problem never heard of that before sorry. And ugh the only way I know of to do it is metamorph which requires root. You can try super status bar. I Know it allows custom layout of items in the bar with a change of color per user preference but not sure on the icons. Try it out

Remove search bar?

I would like to remove the google search bar; I haven't found a solution as freezing/removing Google Search also removes voice search, and I'd like to keep it. Any help, please?
Install a custom launcher from the play store; apex adw etc. You can't unless your rooted with a custom rom or deodexed

Nova launcher is highly recommended. I honestly doubt you'll go back.

Then you'll be keeping the search bar I'm afraid.

Is this normal for Nova Launcher Prime to do this?

I know this may sound really stupid but it is really bugging me now.
I have set nova on transparent bar. When I unlock my phone (using stock lockscreen), the notification bar flashes very fast and goes back to transparent. I'm not sure if I explained myself right.
Does your nova do this? Thankssssss.

No, but you might be using some kind of home proxy, i.e one that launches home from inside an app when you hit the home button.
Open Nova settings and check the default home is actually Nova.

Once you download and launch nova. There will be some widgets on your home screen prompting you to restore your layout from either a previous nova backup or a different launcher. Just create yourself a backup within go launcher (if it has that option) then restore from that backup. It may not restore everything depending on widgets you have currently but you won't have to start from scratch. I use nothing but nova prime.

as written in different threads, you don't loose and S-Pen functionality if you move from standard launcher to any other.
None. I use Nova Launcher. You only lose the features if you root and install another ROM that doesn't have the Samsung apps/features.

If we root but keep the stock ROM, will everything still work as well? I don't really need a custom ROM but need to use Titanium Backup to copy my Smurfs game over to my new phone. I spent almost two years playing Smurfs and I'm really far on it.

Most of samsung widgets does not work in other launchers. So S planner widgets also wont be working.

If you have taken back up of smurf game app folder under internal sdcard/android/ data+obb folders from your previous Android device you can copy it to your new device. It should work from your last status until unless the newly installed smurf creates new folder structure.

With Nova, can you still use the gestures to reduce the screen size for one-handed operation? I could not seem to do that.
