Launcher Pro works great over Blur! Been using it for years. Only issue is the startup lag, but it's only a minute before it kicks in...

I hate launcher pro with a passion, i really think it sucks. I also dislike adw..I've used all launchers and am with go launcher with ICS theme.
OMG. Counter Strike On Android! http://cs-portable.net/

Did anyone watch any of the other videos? and not just the 3D UI lol :/
I'm sure you must have found SOMETHING useful out of that?
Android is bigger than most people realise

James, thanks for posting this stuff. I did get a lot out of it and modded my RAZR, all stock. It really works really well. Had to use ADW in lieu of ADW ex. I also tried a couple configurations with go launcher and launcher pro. I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the dock with those though. The only other problem I had was downloading your fantastic colllection of wallpapers. The link from your YouTube videos doesn't seem to be working. Is there any way you can repost it here. That would really be the icing on the cake. Thanks again and cheers!

Tsf shell is a great, underused and not terribly well known 3d shell too. Doesn't drain my battery like spb shell did and I like how it doesn't have the normal launch dock at the bottom. Get lots of questions on it.

trebuchet is the stock launcher for CM9.
It was built by the CM team specifically for CM9.
It looks just like the stock ICS launcher so idk what you're complaining about.

Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
His point was somewhat misdirected (at Trebuchet) when in fact it's how Google does ICS for tablets. They dont feel it's necessary to have an app-launch bar, notification pulldown, etc. I totally agree with this decision. A tablet experience should be different, but still with the same overall feel. I think it's perfect.

if that's what he meant, then he's missed the point of ICS
Woah, nice.. Excited!
Why does every Android device I've ever used seem to lag opening the app drawer? I've tried almost every 3rd-party launcher, lots of custom and stock roms and phones and tablets, and they all seem to hiccup, at least a little, opening the app drawer. I only comment because I noticed it in the CM9 video for the 10.1 and the Touchpad, despite both having excellent hardware.
So strange, I had hoped ICS would put this to rest once and for all.
(This, of course, does not in any way speak to this team's efforts to bring ICS to the Touchpad, for which I am ever grateful!)
That accent is so sexy.
Can't Wait!!!

Good question. Using VTL.Launcher my TP does stutter a bit on the drawer animation (not on any other animations though), but on my phone (Epic 4g) it does not stutter at all.
I'm not really fond of that type of animation anyway, so disabling it eliminates the problem.
Please post threads like this in the General section. The development fora are meant for development topics only.
Load up Nova Launcher on the TP, see if it's any better.
I'm pretty stoked about this. Hopefully we're gonna get a surprise tonight or very soon....

Miui rom

What do you guys like most about miui rom?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D GSM using XDA App
the fact you posted it twice in two different places.
I don't really like it that much....
I don't like it
Sent from my HTC ShooterU using XDA App
The smoothness of everything, the look that's different from android and customizable, and I love the launcher. I hate when things are ordered alphabetically, things get moved around each time you install an app. With miui everything stays in place, and it's easier for me to get to an app since I usually remember the location of said app. Plus apps that I install and forget about later are easier for me to notice on miui as opposed to other roms.
I just started running this rom. I like it, im using dark ice them tho, and as long as i can find away to get sprint voice mail app to work i think i will use this rom for a while.

Check the "One Stop Shop" stickied in the themes and apps section this brilliant, outstanding, member made. Not sure who it is though.........

I most like the smoothness, nothing else compares. 2nd favorite is battery life. And 3rd part favorite would be the customization.
Smoothness and customization. I love how easy it is to apply themes and switch things up so easily.

I have never gotten a headache from 3d on my phone or tv. I love it.
me either but i don't really care for the 3d that much at all it was cool for like the first 2 months then haven't really used it much since
The 3d is pointless on these phones. I stopped using it cus the cam would crash and 4G was never going to happen. It's an awesome ROM though. I just used launcherpro over it and got amazing benchmarks with it. My favorite thing is that its very functional. Seems like the UI always surprised me when i would find something is right where i want it to be in logical places.

TSF Pro Shell Launcher

In case you haven't seen this launcher in action, here's you chance! I'm using this launcher on Sense 3.5 v1.6 w/ tweaked stock kernel, and its super smooth!
https://market.android.com/details?...ult#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50c2Yuc2hlbGwiXQ..
Just something new to play around with while we wait for the much anticipated ICS.

I read in the vids comments that the launcher isn't exactly like the vid. Is that true?

Its very true! Have it.... don't really care for it... maybe I gotta give it another chance... but as of now... its EHHH to me
I downloaded it for free (yes I know its not legal... but I download pro versions to try them out before I buy them) ... and I will NOT buy a 17 dollar app without trying it out the way I want to....

Something to get excited about?

I have had my note for awhile now flashed tons of ROMs experimented with tablet mode and frankly I'm bored. I'm looking for some tweaks to try out or just something to "wow" me and others. Can anyone push me in the right direction.

As much as it pains me to say it give the paranoid Android rom a try...can customize it more then a ...well use your imagination ... that is if your phone was 1 of the lucky few meant to run it...some of us were informed that not all Gnote's are made equal...happy flashing

I was just super hyped about android and the customization after coming iOS. Haven't found anything that I can say this why my note is better except a bigger screen.

I personally could not make the switch back, so far this is this most control I've had over a phone. I'm doubtful you'll find any of the "wow" factor back on the iPhone.

Were do you guys go to discover cool stuff. I've searched note's forums up and down.
Is there a general android forum where i'm missing new apps, themes, tweaks, etc...
I
I don't understand what you mean by wow you? What exactly wows you? What tweaks do you want aside from being able to change the way the screen completely looks indefinitely?
I think the newness of devices gives it the wow factor more than anything. I'm pretty sure that if you went to another phone, you'd be looking for wow factor again.
For me, I really enjoy being able to control my laptop from my note while the laptop is hooked up to a projector and doing class presentations for my students. That usually gets a "wow. That's really cool you can do that"

Slow down in development? The development thread is packed full of ROMs and whatnot. The developers are constantly updating their stuff. Really unless you're specific about what you're looking for, then it's hard to help with vague.

Android is about your own personalization. Do your self a favor and find your own "wow". If it doesn't work out, you can always go back to to iOS. Android is not for everyone. Can't make everyone a believer.
