i dont know yet how to port this to our device, so i just post the link for any experience user here to try porting it.. (im going to learn ) please help us...
I tried the launcher and I got 4 corner launcher. Maybe the fact I had it and replaced it had something to do with it.
Why dont you try go launcher or adw launcher? They all have themes.

This is home launcher developed by SE, and even IMO I would rather like to use SE launchers than alternatives, it's that special.

Xperia Arc Launcher
Just use search button, i can give you a link of the thread but i also must say that it have some bugs (no landscape, some widgets like PhotoWidget (from Xperia Arc) doesn't work etc).
This launcher is called Xperia 2.0 launcher. . .
Here is the link direct to thread, but next time try to google something out
And read carefully so you can find out which version you can download.
EDIT: Typo.

The Xperia S is a updated launcher (don't know any performance updates, but there are a few visual changes).

Of course i know what he ment, i gave him resized version because i know that in the thread that he linked in first post isn't resized launcher. When you open app drawer you will see 4th row that is on a bottom of drawer and you can't use those applications. . . Nevermind, tried to give you resized version so you don't have to resize from begining and just to mod visual changes for now (as i don't know is there performance updates in Xperia S launcher). . .

you see, the only methods (about S launcher) i found (so far) is modded from the original arc launcher (i found the modded apk files, of course in arc forum)..thats why i 'think' we have to install arc launcher first..
im not arguing with you about those details, the whole main points to my post here is about modding the launcher for right now, it is an idea, and im asking help for it, if someone come here and tell us that launcher can be port, surely i know that i dont need to install arc launcher.. and im already aware that S launcher is not leak yet, there comes the mod-thing is..
about your link to arc launcher, yes thank you. im taking note about that..im not blame you or whatever, since im asking help from you guys..so peace

Maybe it's problem in my attitude, i was not arguing. And a fact, i didn't stated that i gave you resized launcher so that is my fault in my first post to this thread. I allready tried to mod this launcher, but i can't find solution to decompres sources from apk. Tried several programs based on jar, exe etc. I wanted to try to fix landscape bug, photo widget (when you place it on a homescreen, after while it states that it can't be loaded). . .

Is there anybody working on Xperia Arc Launcher for our Atrix?
I install the original Xperia Arc Launcher, but it doesn't fit our screen size.
Please developers, it's a nice launcher.
Thanks...
I installed the one i found lying around and it works just no launcher settings so I uninstalled it.

Wrong area for this post. Requests go in the General Forum section.
Moved as not android development
Ok so this may very well be a rather noob question to ask, but I'm gonna do it anyways lol.
I like the timescape widget, however I do not like the arc launcher(not enough homescreens). I have SPB and ADW yet when I go to add widgets the Timescape one only shows in the new arc style launcher.
Is there a way to have this widget in the other launchers mentioned above? Or if I'm missing something simple, is the arc launcher limited to only 5 homescreens?
Theres a few widgets that arent usable in other launchers. Hopefully a dev can figure that out and make them work....as of now...you just cant.

Yeah, Im sort of in the same boat. Did you try the new beta 2.3.4 SE launcher thats used on the Xperia Ray?
Its alot smoother I find. Im starting to like this launcher more and more now.
You can find it in the Theme & Apps section.

the stock calendar is good and also the weather widget.
(better backup the walkman app and widget for wt19i before installing the music app)
buggy on launcher and music app coz of small resolution.
cheers!
Yeah I've tried a few of them:
- the earth live wallpaper is pretty slick. Tap the earth fromt the corner of the screen and it changes the view of the earth like on the PS3. You see the moon too.
- the music app doesn't work well on the Mini. It's sized poorly for the Mini and you can't stop the music. I'm not that fond of that app generally.
- for the clocks, install widget picker too. The clock selection is good and it includes that really elegant new Sony S clock.
- I'm tersting the new home but haven't been able to get it to work. I deleted the old home, installed the new on, correct permissions, wiped cache and dalvik and still it looks exactly like the older one...
I've been able to install all of these apps on the stock SE rom without needing a root explorer. If anyone wants to read an original article on this:

Xperia Mini
The new launcher is little different, but the biggest difference is that is supports newly added widget (couldn't make them work on old launcher).
Anyway, since I've been using the modded 4x4 SE launcher, bottom apps have been cropped out due to size of the screen.
It would be neat if someone correctly resized the music player, it's really cool (it even fills out mp3 tags and cover art for you )

There is no need to shout.
Anw, what exactly happens when you press/hold on standby and from popup you select "Widgets"? I just tried nova launcher and I can add any widget..
EDIT: I'm currently not on stock ICS so some of xperia widgets aren't working. Are you on stock ICS or on custom rom?

Yeah, I love Xperia Home, too. It is probably the nicest launcher out there and it is also pretty fast with no lags.
In my view, Sony makes the most beautiful interface among all Android manufactures, while they keep the feel of the vanilla Android. Maybe their updates take a little bit longer but they are very well optimized and bring some additional features unlike Samsung, who keep the interface same and just update it to the newer version.

Sony is very original (design, ui, apps, Cosmic Flow, Floating Touch, White Magic etc.) and yet everything is absolutelly beautiful unlike Samsung, who copies almost everything from Apple (design, ui-touchwiz, s voice.....) and guess what....everything is ugly and worse. Sony also updated all of its 2011 phones, when tried to offer all of their features. Samsung offers new features only to their new Galaxy S series, when you have lower end phone and get update for GB to ICS it still looks the same. It is sad that they still hold most of the market, I wish Sony had more market share than Samsung because they try hard and they really deserve it.
Also what no one seems to notice but sony was the first to use the look of the notification draw icon in the middle with two apps either side of it. This interface was then adopted my google in the stock version of ICS and now other manufacturers have skinned their ICS skin to this look as well (HTC one series for example)
