How do i make ADW Ex as default launcher ? When installing ADW ex then press home button, you can set ADW ex as default launcher. But if you clear default in settings/apps/adw ex, you have the touchwiz launcher every time you press home key ? You can start ADW Ex in program, but when pressing home it goes back to TW. In ADW ex i have program home key to "default screen/show notification".
go into settings / apps / launcher2, Start or whatever the TW launcher is called in english roms, and clear the standard settings there!

Yep, and when you get into the apps you will need to click all, then launcher and finally click clear defaults

I use LaunchPro instead of TouchWiz and I'm very satisfied,
I can configure more rows / icons than so graphics looks better, I can configure dock (2 or 3 docks also with gesture support) and better support for App2sd after reboot.
What do you use as your home enviroment ?
i use GO Launcher is very fast and simple
I use Stock TouchWiz, i've tried ADWLauncher, LauncherPro and GoLauncher, both a bit too slow for me.. But i'll give i5510's touchwiz launcher à try (For the Landscape support \o/).
The LG Optimus launcher is awesome too, but it doesn't work well on the i5800... it needs some work

depends on which version of LaunchPro do you use,
I use LaunchPRo and I think it's not slower than TW
but I was trying Go Launcher - and the phone was slower
I use zeam launcher, dock is my favorite

can you create there activities like in LauncherPro ? I think that activities and gestures with dock are the best features of Launcher Pro. And Icons 5x4 looks better then 4x4 or 5x5

Yes, i tested with older firmwares. But i will check it out with JPA
EDIT:
Apps exploring is very fast in LaunchePro but vertical scrolling doesn't likes me, i prefer horizontal.
I use LauncherPro. 8.2. Extremely fast and responsive....

go launcher is great. with ios like features.....
i have used every home replacement, but surely this is diff.
home orientation change is the fastest among all the launchers..
i have go launcher only and uninstalled all launchers even tw launcher thru titanium backup.....
I prefer them in this order :
ADW Launcher (hiding dock and resizable widgets are my favourites)
Go Launcher (a very complete package but consumes a lot of battery)
Launcher Pro (activities and swipe gestures are favourites here)
Zeam (very light weight)
Live Home (3D awesome effects)
I have all of them and keeps changing (killing all other through Task Manager) as per my mood
Launcher Pro is the best of all....

this is a nice analysis I use LauncherPro because of gestures and activities.
Which one is for you the most used one ?

ADW and then Go Launcher.
Zeam when I am running low on resources
Launcher Pro and Live Home when I need beauty over substance
And I did not like GingerBread launcher. Its just bland for its size
What is the best launcher in your opinion ?
I'm not looking for something too fancy, just a good launcher with smooth transitions between homescreens and app drawer..
I'v tried alot of them including :
Hi launcher
ADW ex + free
Go launcher ex
Launcher pro - currently using.
Nemus
Zeem
QQ
and some more...
And another Q's...Is there a GOOD touchwiz launcher that really simulates TW UI ?
Edit : Or the Xperia launcher
Thanks !
I'v tried those:
ADW ex
ADW free
Go launcher ex
Launcher pro
Zeem
i'm using ADW Launcher EX and is the best for me
fast and smooth

Anyone know of a "minimalist" type launcher?
Nova Launcher is the best right now, but it's for ICS.
If you're still on GB, then use ADW EX.

Im currently using Nemus Launcher and i love it. Prettt smooth and the graphics are nice. Its kind of new, but it have all the features that you are going to need. It gets updated regulary, so the devs are still working with it.

You have to open the app drawer then hit then hit the menu button on your device then edit, now you should be able to drag/drop apps from the drawer onto the dock
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Nope, just "Add page" / "Add folder"
In app drawer select edit from menu and drag the icon u want place on the dock in the dock area or change the number of dock icon from preferences/dock settiings.
Tw launcher is the smoothest for me, but it doesn't have landscape mode and hasn't been uptdated since ages ago so i switched to nemus... it would be great to have the best of both!

If it doesn't let you drag/drop then go into TWlauncher settings and go into Dock and change the icon count to 4, by default its on 1 I think, then restart & save and it should work

No adw???
Apex?
Zeam?
rosie?
ADW Launcher Ex, until Apex...now I am loving Apex over ADW Ex, for these reasons:
-Folder Styling (Circle/Square/layered etc..) maintains when added to the dock. ADW uses the 3 icons spread out, with a vanilla folder background when added to the dock...(maybe I am missing the folder styling when in the dock?)
-Transition Animation "Card Stack". I am tired of the ADW transitions...card stack is a clean refreshing transition that I am enjoying for now...
-Displaying Visual of Widgets in the App Tray. Fantastic!

My personal favorite is Apex, but since it isn't listed, I voted for Nova, which is also cool.
I've tried Launcher Pro, Rosie (obviously), Go Launcher EX, and Nova. I stayed on Go Launcher for a long time, but I decided to try Nova after seeing that it provided gmail unread notifications on the gmail icon. Nova provides more space on my home screen for my Android Agenda Widget. It also seems smoother and faster than Go Launcher. Thus, I am sticking with Nova for now. I've never tried Apex.
simply the best launcher is GoLauncher EX.

If I were you I'd remove rosie. If you have rosie you might as well add touchwiz and motoblur. I'd stick to 3rd party launchers only...
There seems to be enough screen space to fit 5x5 icons on the homescreens instead of 4x4.
What's the easiest way to do this on a stock SGS3?
I don't think there are any mods yet to change the stock TW launcher. You might want to check out Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher if you haven't already.

I tried out Nova (free) for a few days, have uninstalled due to:
- icons sometimes take a while to reappear.
- Calendar / S Planner widget sometimes takes a long time to populate.
The TW mods appear to need root... so I'm back to stock TW, and realizing that I don't need more than 4x4 that badly.
Hi, I recently installed some launchers and set one to be my default launcher for when i hit the home button. I know that if i go into the app managment page i can reset the default and then set touchwiz as the default however that is not my question.
My question is: Can i create a shortcut to go to the touchwiz launcher without resetting the default launcher? The other launchers i have installed have app icons so i can just click them and they open however touchwiz does not. Does anyone know how to make a touchwiz icon or some way to easily change the default launcher?
Thanks in advance :good:
Try Minimalistic text. You can use it to create a widget to launch TW Home.
