[Q] ICS original Launcher - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How to get ICS stock launcher instead of TW..?

You can download Nova Launcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20245944#post20245944) it's pretty similar to the stock ICS launcher except it has more features.

Thanks. Dude !

And APEX launcher has a bit more features than Nova launcher.
APEX is my favorit at the time you can find it in the apps section of the Galaxy Nexus forum only search for Apex launcher.

You can also use a Roms like ICS Remix Resurruction or Andy rom ( Galaxy SII Android Development)
They have Trebuchet (I think its the best) and Nova launcher integrated.

I use Launcher pro on CM7. Fast and smooth. I use it instead of default Cianogen mod launcher.

zeam launcher if u want lighweight and smooth, go launcher if u want feature pack and occasional lag
i usually use go launcher ex. its smoother and faster than ADW and Launcher Pro lags sometimes when opening app drawer :/.
ADW for me
Yes suggest to use LauncherPro, its smooth better... low memory peformances
i think launcher pro have no side to side scrolling option. it just lists apps in a single page.
Launcher 7
i'm using Launcher 7 on CM7 and like it so much, it is simple. and lightweight on Memory. i have removed the ADWLauncher.
Nemus Launcher is fast and lightweight. It uses about the same RAM/CPU as Zeam and has excellent folder organisation. I use Claystone on my HD2 but the Ace is slightly underpowered for it although it still works well.
Sent from a phone with an app.
Launcher Pro the best
Would I need to use something like titanium backup to remove the ADW launcher from Grifs CM7? If so would I need to install another one first?

yup install other one first.. switch to that launcher and then remove adw
you can use many tools to remove... titanium will do the job
Zeam launcher
launcher pro
Tw launcher
for speed and smooth
go launcher for style
espier laucher for iphone style +smooth
GO Launcher EX .. Best one so far .. i tried ADW , Launcher Pro .. and the best one in style is GO Launcher .. maybe some lag but you get beautiful style and effects
I use launcher pro... For me is the one that works better... On stock phones... As mine is...but not for long lol
Sent from my LT18i using XDA App
Definitely LauncherPro.. fast and smooth.
Lags with other launchers but not on LauncherPro

Zeam launchers my personal favorite.

No, it is 4.0 dependent I know this is true for Nova, not sure with apex
Dee Ex Two - See Em Seven
Just looked it up. Apex Launcher is for 4.0 and above as well. So no, both of those wont work for us. Those launchers are for phones that already have ICS. Which we dont. Maybe when CM9 gets released we can use those.

x2.
Apex is by far the best of the AOSP-look launchers.
Thank you. Nova Launcher is very smooth and fast except when you fill a page of apps and slide from a page to another. Can you tell me if is it possible change lockscreen to another similar Cyanogenmod 9 to?

Galaxy Player 5.0 Jb & Ics launcher

Can someone help me find a good "Jellybean or Android Ice Cream Sandwich launcher" to find? Phoenix launcher is good but it is very slow and holo launcher I think not. The launchers TEAM SYNDICATE are not satisfactory. Could someone help me? I'm using android 2.3.6, and ROMs I do not want to use.

Ics, Jb & sgs3 launcher
In addition to my previous message, I would like TouchWiz 5.0 launcher. I want this for gingerbread 2.3.6 and I do not want ics ROM to be able to.

Tw 5.0 is only for ICS ..you can use 4.5 ..and for launcher like ICS best is Holo.

tw 4.5
I use tw4.5 but, can i download a galaxy s3 theme for tw 4.5 launcher? And can i download the ics widget picker (menu of widgets)?
Thank's Lennert

Widget picker I believe is a new feature in ICS and requires certain newer APIs that Gingerbread does not have.

I know Holo Launcher is light on ram, and is probably your best option. You can get Go Launcher EX (with the ICS theme) and it is pretty fast too, and I believe you can download an S3 theme for TW 4.5

Nevermind I was thinking about the Go Launcher EX GS3 theme lol. Sorry about that. However, I thought tw 4.5 came with the icons that are used in the GS3? All it needs is the wallpaper right
I have a sgs3 theme for tw 4.5, but no one can make gingerbread launcher that is the same as the Tocco ux 5.0 of the galaxy s3? So my question is whether you tw ux 5.0 of the sgs3 can make gingerbread? see for example holo or phoenix launcher, which can replicate the user interface of ics for gb. So they would also still be able to tw ux 5.0 of the sgs3 for gb. Thanks, Lennert
?
Tw 5.0 launcher for gb ( like holo ics launcher or phoenix launcher as ics ui) the official tw 5.0 but, make / transform for gb
Copy of sgs3 theme?

Where did you find the sgs3 theme. And how exactly do you use touchwiz to use the themes.

Help me port nova launcher to galaxy ace

-i would like to know if there is anyone out there that wants to help me port this awesome launcher , so anyone???
I don't think is possible, since it's for ICS+, I think it uses some appis from there.
You can try holo launcher instead -it comes in most roms from here-.
