Remove the persistent bar and dock bar in the Nova launcher settings. Add the search bar widget and add your icons on the desktop.
Customize at your convenience.

This is mine.

He misspelled it. It's actually called Balancer Launcher.
It's ok, I still prefer the Arc and Launcher Pro.
Thx man! just tried it out. I like it. Screenshots are also availabe on the market In order to find it easier - the correct name is "balancer launcher"

Thx looks better with the transparency now. The last one got after rotation the phone with ticked option: "customization/senzor rotation"
The most interesting part is built-in File explorer...
thanks mate.
tried it..pretty good...but i'd prefer the followong in the order mentioned..
1.Arc (stylish )
2.ADW (very custimizable)
3. Launcher Pro (smooth)
4. Balancer (maybe )

It's really nothing special.
For me, it is...
1. ADW
2. Arc
These are the two main ones.

i guess some of its just down to personal preferance, personally i think adw and launcher pro are abit old looking even with themes. i wouldnt even class arc launcher as its just a transparent app tray...android ui needs a makeover imho anyways and the balance launcher just brings something abit different to the table
You guys should try Go Launcher..

It's the best. Apart from the occasional landscape missing dock bug, it's perfect.

i like it the built in task killer works great! but the app tray scrollin is very lagy for me
it`s very slow, for me adw launcher ex is the fastest and i have no problems with it
same here with adw launcher ex......my favorite..
Tried most, still prefer adw ex. Have to admit Go Launcher Ex is getting close though.

ADW EX Launcher with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Great vid, now I have this to add to my project list for the week. I need to go from android newb to pro with a rooted phone with updated kernel and a custom launcher set up.
Fabulous tutorial. When I get my note Ill try not to mess up what you instructed.
One question though. With the 3d UI can I use live/active wallpapers (the ones that move like the moving galaxy) instead of pictures?
Static

Hi, unfortunately it's only static wallpapers i'm afraid
Static screen problem
This question is for James, I presume, the maker of this tutorial. I've followed all your steps for the 3D UI, but, for some reason, the picture is staying static, there is no cube effect when I scroll screens, and yes, screen scrolling is enabled on AWD Ex. Help? =/
Did you enable the transition effects in Multi picture live wallpaper as well?
For me it works perfectly on Go Launcher Ex. I sat the transition there as well to outside cube.

You can try installing this:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5WTckiNZyqKcDBoaGV4SnBaRVU/view
And then this:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5WTckiNZyqKRVB4SEtJVnRXa2c/view and set it to permissive
And then install Pixel Icon Pack from play store.
Btw you need root to do this.
