Hey guys is there any way to disable the perspective(scrolling) wallpaper on Android? I have an evo
running mik g rom. Thanks for the help in advance!

If you mean how the wallpaper scrolls with home screens, then I know you can use Nemus launcher and that's an option in the settings.

Nothing i've ever heard of. There's no good reason not to install another Launcher that has this option though. Launcher Pro or ADW are probably the favourite choices.

Try the OGQ background app, with it you can choose scrolling/nonscrolling etc...
It's awesome.
You can find it in the market, backgrounds by OGQ

Yes... This app has an option to do that...
Did you not read my post.
You can use this so to set wallpapers you already have too by going into gallery, closing set as, and them picking this app out of the list.
Wallpapyrus gives the options to have iPhone like wallpaper (ie no scrolling)

Both launchers are great IMO, but I've usually leaned toward LauncherPro. I haven't installed either on my MT4G, and am curious to know what other MT4G owners prefer to run on their phone (after rooting, of course).

adw launcher all the way.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/fluxed-adw-theme/com.asimonds.fluxed
with that adw.theme.
[i bought adw.notifier too]
then put on something with a black wallpaper=ooommmggg
speed+eye candy
I just tried both and ADW is slow as a dog on my phone. LauncherPro flies faster than I remember it running on my old MT3G, but sadly I can't install/use any of the HTCSense widgets (most importantly the weather/clock one).
Keep HTCSense or LauncherPro? Hmmm.
I have been using LauncherPro Plus for over a week now. Decided to try ADW today. Although there are definitely some more customization options on ADW theme wise, LPP seems to run faster and more consistent. I will be sticking to LPP.
Also, the old version of fancy widget or the paid beautiful widget app can replace the sense ui weather/clock.

LPP all the way, by far the best. Get beautiful widgets if you want the sense style clock and the LPP widgets are just as good as the sense widgets.

same here... I love Launcher Pro and have been using Beautiful Widgets since they came back after the C&D from HTC, between the speed of Launcher Pro (not to mention the 2 extra launcher bars) and the customization of Beautiful Widgets you can't go wrong.
LPP! i love how fast it is and the widgets are amazing! the ability to also resize a widget on the fly is wondering
I tend to use Launcher Pro Plus more than ADW but both are excellent.
Used to go back and forth between these 2 before lpp. the widgets just put it a step ahead, 4 me. both are good though
Launcher Pro with translucent widgets is the best!
what do you all mean by "fast"?
like the scrolling speeds?

Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I love LP but im using ADW now and i havent seen any slowdowns at all and i like the themes, maybe since its newer to me im digging it more now, i been using launcher pro since it first came out
yea both are great launchers and i have been using LPP since it came out too but lately ive been using ADW since it has many different themes and with the TeamSilence Iced Galcier Rom V1.0 and the Gr8Gorilla 1.7 Ghz OC, ADW doesnt lag at all... so it gives me speed and extreme customization too IMO... my suggestion is download both then see which one suits your needs...
+1 for LPP. I love the calendar widget and the dock with the glass background.
First time trying to use launcher pro, downloaded it from Market and can not find it any where. Went into my app drawer and t isn't there, checked settings ect. and isn't there either. What the heck am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
Didn't think I was that much of a knuckle head but obviously I am.
Thanks,

Click your home button. You should have an option to launch HTC Sense or Launcher Pro.
Click Launcher Pro and now you're using that as your home launcher. If you click on the Menu button from home, you'll now see a Preferences selection. That's how you can customize Launcher Pro.
If you decide you like it, when you click the home button, make sure you check the box to make it your default launcher.
OK guys I just want your opoinion on witch is better, the vibrant stock launcher? Or helix? But please keep in mind I'd be using android 2.1 twlauncher. So make your choice

I've never used helix, but I'm one of the few that likes touchwiz quite alot
I use ADW on my mytouch3g and touchwiz on my vibrant, though I will say that I purchased the paid version of launcher pro as well and I generaly recomend launcher pro to new users as it is very simple to use.
i also love touchwiz but the devs doesn't support it.

Well I was going to try it out but I didn't see it as an option on the market. I'm running Froyo for what it's worth.
There is no perfect launcher imo, I would like launcher pro's home screen functionality with TW's horizontal tray. ADW doesn't cut it.

ADW actually has more homescreen options than launcher pro (it just doesent have the widgets that the paid version of LP has) and it has the horizontal drawer as an option, if thats what you wanted. you can also find equivilent widgets on the market to those of LP. the only features I've found that LP has that ADW does not is the ability to change the dockbar image and the 3d app drawer.
The newsest version of ADW is really pretty nice
although I will say that ADW is meant to be tweaked and customized, it has tons of options to play with, where Launcher Pro is set up pretty nicely as it is.
Show me how to have a scrolling dockbar, and use your own images in the dockbar of adw in the settings. Not to mention showing adw run as smooth as lp.

Launcher Pro is definitely the most functional and customizable launcher out right now...and it's going to get even better when the new code is finished.

It would be perfect if he just added the horizontal tray as an option. I love options...
Tw vs Helix = i pick Tw
i personally use launcherpro.. but i still keep the TWlauncher as an option to switch back to from time to time
Hi Guys,
Quick question out of Adw launcher and LauncherPro or Go Launcher Which is the best to use??
I want Photo Widgets But it seems theses Home replaceMents Dont have them

I use adw now....been for about 7 mo.that now...I used to use LP....been a while tho....but I'm almost positive that LP had the people widgets but adw doesn't.....I guess it all comes down to personal preference....but there's a TON in the market....but I.always though.adw was a bit more stable

Actually, I've been using 'HE Launcher 2' lately (free from the market) and I love it. You can choose from all the popular docks (including a perfect Sense rosie, stock Gingerbread, Samsung, Froyo, espresso, blur, etc.), it has swipe-to-hide notification bar feature that works perfectly, and you can completely customize the size of your homescreens AND widgets.
Plus, Custom transitions, a blazing fast FULL app drawer, supports live wallpaper too..
I added a flip-clock with fancy widgets home, so now my phone LOOKS like it's running the Stock launcher, but it's waaay faster.

i use adw launcher
I have been using LP for a while now, sense was driving me nuts lol.
The stock android photo frame widget will work with any launcher..
Try out Go Launcher, it's free with alot of different themes and widgets (including a people, messaging, and Facebook widget)
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Go launcher EX works wonders for me , couple it with the pure messenger and calendar and built in FB widget its stunning.
So I know this might seem funny to some people...
But I REALLY love the people widget that Sense has that lists favorites along the left but their last interaction next to them. Like latest facebook status, or call timing, or text message, etc.
Does any replacement launcher offer something similar?
Or is there a standalone app/widget that can do this?
If so, I definitely wouldn't mind parting with Sense...
I know that I'm not the only Launcherpro user out there!
Honestly I originally chose LPP because of the sense like widgets, but with the addition of themes (icon and widget) and transition animations, I really can't use anything else.
Plus I've found LPP to be more responsive than go or Adw, but i know many would argue on this point.
Really its just personal preference- they're all great launchers.

ADW
+10 char
I'm anxious to see which launcher will be the first to be in 3D, similar to the EVO3D commercials, which shows the Sense home screen in 3D.
I have tried all launchers outhere and always go back to launcher pro. If you know how to set it up you'll have the smoother best looking launcher. LP is running at a cap 60fps scrolling with no lag. Transition effect "scale" and even iphone user are shock in how much more smoother my launcher is compare to an iphone 4. The widget are awesome too. Im using facebook, calendar and bookmark with honeycomb theme. Would not go back to any other launcher again. If anyone mention stutter or lag in LP is because they have not set it up right in the setting cause i was getting lag at first too.

I have ADW EX and LPP, the only complaint I have with LPP is the app drawer animation seems incredibly choppy.

i hate the ics app drawer, because it's sorted by name
i like an app drawer that is like the touchwiz one, so that you can choose the order of the apps by yourself.
is ther an option to make this in any its rom or any ics launcher?
thank you!

I can't tell you which one you'll like. Search the "Play Store" (formerly known as Market) for "launcher". You'll have your pick. Install and test until you find on you like.

Dude, clearly you can't read, either.
Look - if you are dissatisfied with how your app drawer currently functions, try changing the settings. If you can't get the app drawer to how you like it, then INSTALL ANOTHER LAUNCHER to change your app drawer.
This isn't rocket science. I'm not trying to be mean here, but I've basically said the exact same thing in three posts.
sorry am a noob...
and how can i change the app drawer without changing the homescreen????

Can't I'm afraid. Installing a new launcher will mean that you have to add shortcuts and widgets back to the home screen. However if you switch back to the stock launcher they will still be there. Aftermarket launchers also handle the home screens.

is there a way to get scrolling wallpaper working on the stock sense rom? i'm using apex, which has a scrolling wallpaper option, and i tried using quickpic(since the sense gallery wallpaper picker only crops for a non-scrollable wallpaper) but nothing will work. i always just get a static background
any workarounds?
without rooting, that is. i'm trying to use the phone stock for a little while before i root to see how i like it
Pretty sure this was removed totally in sense 5....
In fact, I dont even get it to work with Nova Launcher Prime either. I select a 2160px * 1080px as wallpaper with wallpaper scrolling enabled, but all i get is a static 1080px wallpaper and no scroll effect.
There is an option in nova launcher settings to force scrolling wallpaper for Samsung devices like the galaxy. Just make sure that is ticked and it will work.

You can download the app landscape wallpaper from the market for free,it will allow you to do so with the stock or aftermarket launchers.

yeah, i've tried quickpic and the stock android gallery, no luck
i installed nova real quick and that worked, but i like apex more. so it has something to do with sense i guess.
