I'm running the latest CM7 nightly on my Droid Incredible. I have the paid versions of both ADW and Launcher Pro, but at the end of the day I always go back to the stock Gingerbread launcher. It's fast, minimal, and it just works. My only complaint is that that launcher2 only has five home screens, and I would like seven. A Google search brought me to a launcher2 mod over on XDA that has seven home screens, but whenever I press the phone shortcut I get a message telling me that "this application is not installed on your phone" (the mod is from the Samsung Epic 4G, I believe it's looking for the Touchwiz dialer and not the stock Gingerbread dialer). Would it be possible to mod the stock Gingerbread launcher to have seven screens and a working phone shortcut?

Did you try to push the file using root explorer or just install the apk the normal way... the instructions say to push it via root explorer.
Hit thanks if I helped please!

I pushed with root explorer. I think the problem is that the launcher is looking for the Touckwiz dialer, not the stock Gingerbread dialer.

I've been using my new launcher since yesterday and it's great, though I've found one small problem. starts, like when I power my phone back on in the morning, the widgets on the two home screens on the far right disappear. Again, this is a small problem and other then than that the launcher works perfectly.

~Bi-Sense~
launcher pro sense ui
Sense sounds
Fancy widget
sense icons
sense widgets- only if you buy the full version of LP
Custom boot animation.
~Install instructions~
Boot into recovery
wipe dalvik
flash bi-sense
done
~Credits~
Heathen, Whitehawk, the rest of EDT, br1ck'd, binary100100 for some images, tonicacid for the boot animation.

long press on the dock shortcut you would like to edit, change the shortcut, then choose launcherpro icons and there will be icons for the sense dock.

Hi Dan, I checked there, but there was no icon for the app drawer up arrow for the right side. Also, there is no icon that has the + sign. Any ideas?
Re more dock icons... before flashing this theme, i had been using simply galaxy and just extracted the launcher pro apk from this, removed the one I had and installed.
I'm pretty sure I had more icons that way if anyone wants to try that method. I remember more left and right choices... I'm running the flash now on bi and no need to redo it but... if you are seeking more icons, this may be an option

Is it possible to get the smaller version of the clock widget that is on the Sensation XL version of sense 3.5
EDIT they have the clock in the new sense ics roms!
I have tried a few methods from the Sensation forum and none of them have worked for me. I can get it to install and show up under widgets but it will not show up on my home screen. I am running a custom rom. I think maybe our screen resolution has something to do with it??

Although you would have to purchase it, just get Beautiful Widgets from the market. It has everything that you would need. That's a 4x1 widget that's included with BW. You can also get tons of skins to make it look how you want.

Hey guys, what's the best launcher for MIUI? Something that fits in, doesn't look out of place. Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
i feel MIUI is equipped with ADW or Go Laucher is great. and the slide up to Lock is my favorite. but ADW cant invisible apps in apps drawer is its drawback. so i chose Go launcher.
GoEx. Have used it since day one with Miui. Install it, freeze the stock launcher & enjoy

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Sir, are you referring to the column of icons that can be placed on your screen?
Yes I am talking about how after you unlock your phone and there are buttons such as contacts and applications. I updated mine through Odin and there are only 4 buttons not five as I usually see on ICS and graphically ithasn't changed much also I am now having problems with my WIFI button on the pull down notification place. It seems I may have installed a crap firmware

use a custom launcher if you want more than 4
It sounds like you installed the official Samsung ICS update, which has TouchWiz. Which will have 4 dock shortcuts. But were expecting the AOSP launcher, which has 5 dock shortcuts. As RoRo1990 said, just install a launcher. Like Apex or Trebuchet.
EDIT: Also, you should note that official Samsung releases, since they have TouchWiz, won't look too different from the previous version.

u will have to use a root explorer and move these to /system/app or /system/framework and then delete the .odex version of the file(temporary til we get recovery)
first up is 5x4 launcher
