Hi, can I create folders? I am using Android 2.1., and I long press on the home screen but see no option to create folders!
Are you running SE Android 2.1 home launcher? If so, you can't make folders on the homescreen. You can run other launchers: Zeam, Arc Launcher, Launcher Pro, ADW Launcher (are a few that come to mind) to get that feature.

Most you can download from the market, there are free versions of all those. Arc launcher can be found via the mini pro themes and apps thread. Or search ''arc launcher'', should find it.
There is also a thread about the ''best launcher'' as well, but of course the best launcher for you is the one you find works the best for you.

Hi guys,
I'm just waiting 2 receive my new mini and I don't have much experience yet with it since I have been using HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 so far.
Could you share your experience with various launchers, i.e. which one do you prefer and why?
I would need something simple with most important widgets like contacts, browser, weather etc.
Cheers

ADW is best.... Have many options and costomization
Helix is also good
Helix is very Stable and good
I have had many Force Stops with ADW
I use Helix. Simple and fast (And they say it increases your battery life).
BTW, Anyone knew how to make the app drawer transparent? The black background? I still want to see my wallpaper when I'm opening the app drawer (my wallpaper is Droid eating apple)
i tried EVERY launcher out there...the conclusion: ADW is the best for me;
astonishing customization, very good speed, stability and battery consumption and the only one so far with the ability to turn every application or widget in a useful icon; for example you can put a "smart search" icon on your bottom dock bar...indispensable for me.
maybe not to many themes for now though
Try Zeam 1.5.1 (for Donut).
It's simple, fast, efficient and just does the job
ADW Launcher and Helix!
@pulpoff, can you please pm me that version I cant find it anywhere, thanks
ADW! let your creativity takes you!
Get my apps folder from black theme thread, its included in it.

pulpoff,can we change zeam bottom dock manually like launcher pro does? And does zeam has icon stretch like on ADW?
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
I use Zeam too -> Infopage: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664149
Download: slideme.org/application/zeam
But the infopage above says that it is only available for android 2.1 and there has been no update yet. Right?
I liked ahome 4 beta. but it got expired
Is it necessary to delete the default launcher after you installed a custom one, and if yes, how is it performed?
thanx
There is no need to remove it.
Simply restart your phone and a pop-up will appear to choose the launcher you want.

Is there a launcher that dosen't have app drawer i mean all icons on desktop?
Hmm, whats about GO Launcher... you can chose as many homescreens as you want and you can replace the app drawer with the app/etc you want...
What do you mean?Do you mean an iPhone-like launcher?
You can always use ADW Launcher.It's the best and you can choose between portrait and landscape app drawer.
yes i mean like the iphone

Hmm, i checked this at my device out and it is too buggy.
For example the camera app doesnt work, try GO Launcher its a good decision
Iphone Sucks ! DAA!!
Is there a way to add more homescreens to the latest stock SE launcher.
If not can you recommend a good launcher that allows more homescreens and also allows SE widgets such as timescape to run on it.
I have used spb in the past and loved it but it won't allow timescape on it

A lot of ppl is using ADW Launcher:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher&hl=en

I was just about to ask the same thing. If not seven home screen is it possible to get the launcher modified to 4 columns * 5 rows.

How can i make a font to be used everywhere?
I like Sony Sketch a lot but it looks like its not applied everywhere.
I want it everywhere... and i mean EVERYWHERE. Every char to use this font. I know it is possible cause i had it like that on GB but not anymore on ICS. (
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Try Go Launcher fonts, its really good. You can download the fonts and use it with go launcher.
I am using ADW Launcher EX + Widget LockScreen.
I install the Sony Sketch font but it's not working everywhere... like it doesn't have the permission... dunno. For example, in ADW i get it's default font. On GB was working gr8.

Go in adw settings and set the font to sony sketch. and for the other system apps use rom toolbox pro there youll find the font and install it.

Any launcher has its default font. You can download separately the font then just flashed it over CWM. Or backup using titanium then restore it after using ADW launcher.
HIT THANKS IF THIS HELPS YOU IN ANYWAY!!!

Thank you all for trying to help but you are missing the point here... It's not only ADW... There are more places where the font doesn't work. Now i am on OMEGA and the keyboard buttons don't use the font thou when i was using NEAT, it worked...
So the problem is in permisions or something like that.

Use Rom Toolbox Pro from google play by JRummy16," paid app " or try Rom Toolbox lite," free app ". Its got Sony Sketch and a few hundred more fonts.
Edit... Just installed Sony Sketch font from Rom toolbox pro and its completely across the board from contacts, messages, Facebook to all the app names.

I have used Go Launcher and Holo Launcher, however I know there are a ton of different launchers out there. Just wanted to see what other user's views were! If you could add what you specifically like about your launcher! Thanks

You can use nova,apex,adw,go launcher,Sony experia launcher or wait for chameleon laucher. I use (private beta) chameleon launcher on my tablet and it is fantastic. You can try also holo launcher HD.

Thanks, I thought about using adw or launcher pro but decided to go with apex. So far I love it! I can even still use the cobalt theme that I was using on the stock jb theme. I may have to check out chameleon launcher as I have not heard anything about it. Thanks!
ADW Launcher EX for GB, and Apex for ICS/JB
