I'd like to request a WP7 Themed rom. Maybe using MIUI as a base could work...
I like the WP7 style a lot and think, with all the roms we have now why isn't there a WP7 rom?
go to the market and get launcher 7.....
It's free, and will accomplish what you want

android seven pro is a good one
Fede( Developer of launcher pro) posted an early alpha release of a music app. Use Google or go to Engadget. Its just like WP7. Use it with launcher 7.

Very buggy. The tiles are weird and had some issues with the tile colours, also the application drawer sometimes is just pure black, nothing else.
Me too out of curiousity, it's also a huge battery drainer and RAM hog.

If you want to resize widgets then yeah, otherwise no
I actually like lp+ more then regular launcher pro.. Resizing widgets comes in handy and you get to use all the scrollable widgets that lp comes with..
Thats all you get but for $3 who cares
Check out there website http://www.launcherpro.com/forum/
there's a lot more you can do on plus like popular from the dock bar for unread texts and missed calls. ..its pretty cool..
i bought it but i never use it. you get a lot of sense-like widgets which is very cool. I think the widgets, the look of the dock and how smooth the launcher is are the main features. Lots of customizations too of course...
I would to support the development.

if you use widgets, it will be worth it. Otherwise, stay with the free. I personally like the widget, so it was worth it for me.

I like it because if the scrollable Widgets and I also wanted to support the dev since it's an app I use everyday

Really? Which variant?
I use the 5 screen one and it's flawless. Haven't found a better launcher. I just wish it had landscape mode. Sometimes if I use WidgetLocker and it's in landscape mode, the SE Launcher reloads itself but in landscape mode. Aside from the icons not being placed properly it otherwise looks great.
Wish someone with enough skills could make a variant with landscape mode!
Works great. I think I like it better than the touchwiz one on here

TW laucher is faster than this, in fact i think its the fastest launcher for our atrix right now. Anyway if you want to make arc launcher faster try reducing the number of applications in each appdrawer page.

I have been using it off and on these past few weeks. I don't really care for it. I mean it's nice and convenient. Just not for me.
I used it and liked it, but switch back and forth between that and adw. Gives the phone a different feel and again shows you why android is so good that you have all these options.

Have either of you used Launcher 7? If so, how does it compare with WP7Home?
I love my launcher 7. I have been using it for the last 4 months. Not supersmooth yet but I really like the vertical scrolling of launcher 7 and the tiles are pretty customizable. I personally think it's the best launcher for me.

Yes, so the developers of ZPlayer and WP7Lock have joined the project I started a few weeks back, the Seven+ Project. I cannot speak for WP7Home, but Launcher 7 by Timo Kujala is our official launcher and I think it is quite good.

Oops meant to press quote, but you could try using the stock HC launcher. I like that the best out of all the ones I've tried
I basically have 3 issues with it #1 wasted screen real estate, #2 no folder support, and and #3, can't delete unused home screens

I think he meant the stock honeycomb launcher, not the stock htc launcher. The stock honeycomb launcher does not have wasted space, the other two I'm not sure about.
Ah yeah I saw a "t" in there that wasn't there lol. Yeah I saw the team syndicate one and I tried it out, only problem is it was kinda designed for gb and froyo so it has a virtual notification bar that can't be disabled... However that was the free version it might be able to be disabled on the paid I dunno. Anywhere on XDA I could just grab the apk for the actual stock launcher and install it?

GO Launcher EX is good. Has lots of features that most Launchers don't
But I always miss the glorious sense widgets that you cannot get any where else.
Honestly I've warmed up to the sense launcher a bit. Its basic and bare but the cool animations and awesome sense widgets make it worth using. As far as real estate, Go launcher HD had the issue too, just seems to be a honeycomb thing so whatever really. Think I'll just stick with Sense for now!
yea go launcher HD (beta) is a nice alternative to the stock or htc launchers for sure. just started using it today and really like the folder support
it's not on the market u'll have to search around for it
Yeah I found it from a google search, had a download link,and thats how I got it
Yeah I tried Go Launcher HD and it certainly a beta. Need lots of work.

the stock launcher is pretty bland, I would highly recommend Go Launcher EX or ADW over that if you want a different launcher.

Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
I really dont see that big of a difference between the two.
Honestly, apex. It has features in the free version that you have to pay for in Nova. I like the app drawer setting to hide apps from the drawer. It seemed smoother for me too. I put apex, nova, trebuche and miui launchers through the paces and I found apex to be the best. If miui launcher wasn't so buggy, I'd use that but yea. I use apex on miui and cm9

Its too bad that the X2 is not on a nightly CM9 build schedule like the Nook Color. The CM9 trebuche launcher is getting better everyday and is almost on par with Apex now. Soon it will exceed in features, but we are stuck on an old build of CM9.
Can we not just grab the trebuchet launcher apk from a nightly and give it a try?
