[Q] Rotation for homescreens and appdrawer - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This question goes out to all the theme builders and rom builders and ofcourse the home pro's.
My question is simple, its there anyway possible that you can get rotation for youre homescreen and appdrawer with a launcher that is homemade?
I have not done the launcher and well i dont think the developer has the time either. Everyone wants him to put in the rotation on his rom but i only want it on the launcher cause thats the only thing i have installed atm.
I know there is launcher that supports this but i dont like them that much, launcher pro is good but i hate the appdrawer on that launcher. And Go launcher has also i bad appdrawer.
And the launcher im referring to is SPlauncher , it can be downloaded here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457061.
So is there anyone out there who has the free time and would like to help me if this is possible?
Thx in advance.
And once again i do not own this launcher it is made by dragon7780.

Remove pages from Motoblur homescreen?

Hey guys, I was wondering if there was anyway to get rid of a few pages from the default motoblur launcher. I actually prefer the overall appearance over other launchers (LP, ADW, Go Launcher)...but I only want 3 pages. Is there any way to do this, or do I need to just stick with another launcher? TIA.
I'd like to know this too.
TIA
Idk if this works on motoblur but on adw if u hit the June button there is a choice that says edit if u press that you can delete screens

[Q] Timescape & music player widget on other launchers

Hi, I have Wolfbreak's GB installed on my x10. Is it possible to make the timescape and music player widgets available to other launchers as well? I can only see these widgets on SE's ARC launcher, but not on other launchers. Really love these new widgets from SE. Thanks in advance
Any developers out there care to comment? I did a little search around this forum and found that people have asked this question before, but have yet to receive an answer. I'm not looking for a solution now, just wondering if its possible. Thanks.
Hi,
Im in the same boat as you. I want to use these widget on other launchers but can only see in Sony Launcher.
Anyone know how to add the widget on other launchers?
Thanks
I know that it's a missing when some widgets can't be use on another launcher but I think this problem caused by widgets' settings. Some widgets are set up just to run with Stock launcher only.
it doesnt work like that ..i think we need to modify the framework accordingly for installing the widgets on other launchers ...
Hope its right
thnk me if it helped
Well, is there any other widgets/apps that will provide similar functionality?
Also I think many ppl would appreasiate it if someone would modify the timescape widget to work with other launchers, I do think SE is onto something there, one glance and I'm up to date...
;-)
Thanks
SE lock their widgets so they cannot be installed on any other launcher, it really annoys me becuase the stock launcher is useless (Not being able to even add more homescreens is a joke)
I would like to know if anone is actively working on this problem as quite a few people are asking about it.
Now that timescape is becoming more user friendly...with more extensions for more content....I would really like to have the widget but I refuse to use the poor excuse of the stock launcher.
This would be a good project to work on....lets see if anyone is listening

I dedicated some time previously to working on it to no avail. I BELIEVE its coded in the smali code, but if its forced to run on other launchers it doesn't work properly:
Timescape can't scroll [well can scroll but you can't see] and MIGHT take you to the wrong message/facebookthing/w.e. and only refreshes when you reboot...
Music player the little icon thing [thumbnail] does not change and the thing bar does not actively move [the time bar] and the buttons are glitchy
you name it, errors come. I gave up :L

Same issue bro. I use ADW Launcher EX... I want those features...
Would be great to have the freedom of using timescape on other launchers. the only reason i still have the stock launcher is because timescape and the music widget only work on it I guess it was a trap that was well thought of
I think pheel is the only one to have made some advancement on this project (that too, on my request ) but it faded out 2-3 months back. Hope with the senior devs (yes, greg, bring 'em on!) we can see some progress!!

[Q] [REQ]Launcher Pro with SE Active launcher app drawer(Hybrid Launcher)

Hello this im fresh noob on this site..Go help some noob here please!!
Have some1 ever imagine if we have launcher like this? I like Launcher Pro because it can be customize to suit our need/style example:number of homescreen,but the application drawer was kinda boring,its just black and (if i not mistake) its not customizable and yes ive tryed that 3D drawer but still boring,it will be nice if we can add wallpapers like SE Active Launcher.For this launcher,i only like the application drawer,it looks nice and fresh(i mean that transparent/glass alike drawer make the wallpaper visible from app drawer),left and right scrolling,manageable and beautiful icon,but its not customizable,i don't need to much home screen,3 will be enough for me.
Can Some1 mod this both launcher into 1?it will be nice and i really2 appreciate to your job.
Thanks

I like go Launcher or ADW Launcher. Both are good but used go Launcher the most and enjoyed it the best along with goSMS
If you want to be fast, go launcherpro or adwlauncher. However, there's a popular launcher emerging called golauncher. Its heavily customizable and you can make it look exactly how you want. You should check it out for yourself.

I'd say ADW launcher. It is my favourite of all time right now. But I must ask what is Trancent Launcher? I tried searching for it but I didnt find it.
I say adw launcher ex too. It's fast and well customizable.
But...btw CyanogenMod doesn't have adw as stock launcher?
yeah it does
i am running cm7 on my phone
i just wanted to know
because my cm7 is starting to lag a little.
like it takes aa few second to get past the lock screen
and i though it might be launcher oriented
Zeam launcher or launcher pro. I prefer zeam
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I like ADW Launcher EX in combination with ADW notifier as it is fast and highly customizable.
But the best advice I can give is to try all the free versions of launchers and see which one works best for your device.

All Apps in Homescreen

Helo Guys
It's possible to eliminate the grid app? I wanna know if it's possible to put all my Apps in homescreen like iPhone. I installed a custom rom with S6+Note touchwiz, in at the initial setting show me 3 mods: Touchwiz without grid, with grid and easy. But doesn't work. Suggestions?
I don't think it's possible on Touchwiz.
You can try with another launcher like ZenUI launcher from ASUS. I didn't try it but it offers the possibility to have all your apps in homescreen by default.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asus.launcher
Yes it was possible, with popwiz rom, but i dont know which version was that, now I am on popwiz telstra 2.1 and it doesnt work. I also like this feature.
@leonbpg
U can try a miui launcher (combined with an iPhone theme) don't know for sure if it is available in playstore, else u could just download a miui rom and extract the launcher apk.
Go to "system/etc/floating_feature.xml", search "<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_LAUNCHER_SUPPORT_HOME_MODE_CHANGE>" and change from FALSE to TRUE
