Hey guys,
Can i use my HOME BUTTON as a switch between Home Screen and App Drawer ?
I use:
Gingerbread 2.3.6 XWKK5
Siyah 2.6.1
ADW Launcher EX 1.3.3.5
Jkay DeLuxe 13.3.8
and i am preety sure i didn't skip any options...
If you use LauncherPro, I'm pretty sure you can use your home button to toggle between the Home Screen and the App Drawer.
Thx for the answer dude...
The problem is that the Launcher Pro is an outdated app and by the reviews it looks like is abandoned by the dev...
It's not working with 2.3.6 btw...

How can I set my default launcher to LauncherPro or froyo or ADW?
Can i install and change multiple launchers the same time for froyo in stock 2.2?
Sure. Go to Manage applications, find your actual launcher and clear the default start option. Then click in the home button and choose the launcher you want and check the box that says to use always that launcher.
Can i install multiple launchers at the same time ? also by the above steps if we can change the default launcher to ADW, Launcher pro etc?
Yes you can install multiples launchers for example: Adw + Launcher pro + Go Launcher, when you have installed them, if you press the Home button the system let you choose the launcher.
Yes, you can have how many launchers you want installed at the same time. When you want to use another simple do what i told in previous post.
Ya its working..Now which is the best launcher that you are using now ADW , launcher pro or any other ..suggestions please..
If v can apply some themes also?
Launcher pro + Launcher pro icons + Desktop Visualizer + any icons you want.
i think Launcher pro have stopped updating the apps..right..
i have downloaded Launcher pro from the market but can't open it, only option available is uninstall.. the devoleper itself mentioned "If you can't open it, download "ClearDefaultHome" or "Home Switcher" ..
If we can install it without Home switcher?
how to stop the vibrating alert in Launcher Pro?
Hi,
I was wondering how to get more advanced home screen that has 5 icons at bottom(i am new so i cant give pictures but you will hopefuly know what i mean).
I only got some bad version with 3 icons at the bottom and when i look on some youtube versionsit looks great and on my mobile it looks bad
AFAIK, CM7 has a version of ADW launcher as the home screen. so, on your home screen, go
menu button > ADW settings (may be under more) > UI settings > Main Dock Style > 5 icons
that should be what you want
Or if you dont want the adw launcher go to the market and download a new one!
I suggest launcher pro

Fast, clean and simple.
Currently I have six icons on my doc and two 1x1 widgets on my home screen (so I can see my wallpaper ).
Phone/Contacts/App Drawer/Browser/Handcent/Folder (with all my other regular apps in it).
I have CM7 and I just installed ADW Launcher EX, one feature I am missing is that whenever I am on any homescreen but press the home button it takes me to default screen, is this feature only in CM7's version of ADW Launcher or am I having a bug ?
This is not another post asking how to make ADW Launcher EX my default Launcher, I am talking about homescreens.
You need to set a homescreen to your default homescreen first.
after you did so, everytime you press the home button it takes you to the homescreen you set as the default one.
dont know anyway...im not using adw ex

I couldn't find that option before Thanks.
A free advice!
You should switch to Go launcher Ex, far more customization than you can even think,i have tried both so you can really consider a switch + it had the option you're looking for and also there's an option to copy your current launcher's icons to it

Menu>Edit to select which screen is default Homescreen once you've set that as the action for the button.
Originally posted this in general. then realized it belongs here. if any admins want to delete my first one in att note general, i understand. anyway...
So if you want to have an ICS theme for your note, or pretty much any android phone, follow these directions. And if you like it, hit the thanks button
What you will need:
Go launcher
GO Locker
GO Locker ICS Theme
GO Search Widget
Ice Cream Sandwich (Theme)
Ice Cream Sandwich Clock
ICS Search Bar 2 for GO Widget
Okay once you have all those you want to go to go launcher. when on your home screen press the menu button (Far left) click themes. then select your ice cream sandwich theme. Now press the home button. then the menu button. now preferences. then screen settings, then grid size. Select "Tight 5x4" then click the home button. now hold your finger on the home screen. click widgets, and android 4.0 clock. Then position it where you want it. Now go back to the home screen, hold your finger on the screen again, and select GOwidget. Now click search and select your ICS one. now we are almost done. go back home, click the menu button, then plugins, then go locker, and select IceCream.
That's all. If you need help just ask.
I use Go sms for my texting, and downloaded an ICS theme for that. Shown in the image below.
Here are some pictures of my Note home screen:
just thought i'd add that when you are trying to change the lock screen wallpaper from menus it doesnt show the ics ones.
to change the go locker wallpaper to one that doesnt show up:
tap menu
tap plugins
tap go locker
tap settings
you can change it to the wallpapers included with the go launcher ics theme that way, change it to others that don't show up when you try to change from display settings menu, or even set it to just be the same background you use for go launcher.

Go SMS. Its in the market. They have tons of themes for it

ICS theme
The only problem is that's not how ICS looks. (I already have this installed.) I had it on my old phone, and the widgets are a white translucent background, and a dark bar at the top similar to how Honeycomb looks, but not identical. I don't know where these themes come up with the completely wrong look.
I just switched over from an HD2 running AOSP ICS. I have yet to see a widget for email for example, that looks anything like the real ICS one.
I admit that it mostly looks like it if you leave the widgets out.
An example of what they should look like would be the modern ICS theme for Android Pro Widgets, but the bar at the top looks darker on actual ICS ones.
cool
Hey.
Yesterday I tried Nova Launcher and its got one amazing feature: a recent apps (multitasking) icon for the desktop. I would really like to use that on the stock TouchWiz, which I prefer. Is there any way I can use that icon or install it on TouchWiz? That way I dont need to hold down the home button everytime. Its easier and faster, just like the multitasking button on the Galaxy Nexus.
Does someone know how to do it? I would like to install it on my desktop keeping TouchWiz.
Thanks!
Or if anyone knows some other trick to access the multitasking with another program or widget that would be great. Any possible way to avoid the long press home button.
Thanks.
The Nova Recent Apps shortcut is actually designed so it can be used from more than just Nova Launcher, it works with TouchWiz for example .
From TouchWiz > App Drawer > Widgets > Nova Launcher 1 x 1 (not the app and not the Nova Activities), then select Recent Apps.
