Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the ICS Launcher (by Syndicate Apps) and the ICS theme (by Sonny Sekhon). Are they both the same thing aesthetically or is one more accurate? I've never seen ICS so I don't know how to tell?
the ics launcher you mention is a port of the launcher for use on gb and lower has the looks and almost acts like stock ics (but buggy ), a theme changes the appearance of the launcher eg adw launcher , changes the looks of the apps , but does not act like the launcher eg widget in drawer etc ...
the launcher you mention and the theme are two different items , themes are more for getting the appearance opposed to the functionality of ics launcher , the launcher is almost fully like ics ,so maybe ure better of flashing a ics rom oppsed to using the launcher or theme the two are pretty mediocre opposed to the real thing in my opinion , i have a ics rom on my phone runs ok ...
Ok. Thanks. It's good advice to get a ROM but unfortunately none of them for my phone have a working camera and that's crucial to me. I'll stick with the launcher.
Hi ppl, I'm looking for something different for my s2...
Note: Please don't advice to root my phone.
I want my all icons, everything to be changed to a different theme, like the nokia have different kind of themes s2 only has the go launcher app which just changes the background images and color rest everything is same.
I 've tried the SPB SHELL 3d, It's awesome but i dont want to use that as it's just full 3d.....
anything else can make my s2 look a really cool and funky???

Have you thought about trying MIUI? You can basically customize anything and everything
EDIT: why dont you want to root your phone?
Roms are the way to go along with custom launchers and themes. Btw i feel this is in the wrong section

I second that, however if youre not looking for a new rom you could always try another launcher like go ex or adw launcher, or even flash the galaxy s3 launcher

Try so. Ho social home launcher in the play store
Devices list:
At&t Sony xperia ion with stock deodexed rom of international version
Nook HD+ dual booting to cyanogenmod 10.1 with hybrid method
Mac book with Intel Core i7 quad core 3.6 ghz processor
Previous devises :
Nook color dual booting cyanogenmod 10
IPhone 3gs jail broken
I'm with ya.. After seeing youtubes of Sense 5, I'm a fan... As I always loved attempts at feed-based UI's such as old defunct *Spark UI, Slide-screen, etc.
One possible not-so-slick but vertical scrolling launcher with left/right swiping to go to screens with stuff would be ssLauncher, which is very customizable, but also very tedius and manual. You could take a screen and extend widgets down to make it a long scrolling "feed" type of screen.. Then swipe to screens showing apps, bookmarks, etc
But I am big-time hoping they can extract that Sense 5 Launcher. However, if I know HTC, I guarantee they've got it heavily locked into the whole skin, so it'd probably take a full rom port, then HTC would dive in with cease and desist notices. So to get Sense 5 itself, I'm betting you gots to get an HTC.
Hello,
I have good news for touchwiz lovers. There is a port of galaxy note 3 launcher and lockscreen.
Both are working fine on Xperia P. Launcher is really smooth, so guys try it - it's really nice

Is it possible to have UX 4.0 on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge instead of TouchWiz? I really like the UI of UX 4.0 over TouchWiz and was wondering if I can have that in the S6 Edge.
Anyone??
If you are familiar with porting, yes. But to get that giant thing over here, you really need to know how to get it done. Otherwise there are Launchers or you can actively seek out people for the project.
I would suggest choosing another theme from the theme store or installing nova launcher from the play store if you're going for the looks. On the other hand something that i desire from ux 4.0 is the camera apk because i want to test the available settings and controls (i.e shutter speed control) on my galaxy s6 edge.
