What launcher are you using with what Rom on ICS if any?
I use ADW with CR 4.5
Ps: interesting that nobody seems to use GO Launcher so far.

Stock. What's with people using other then stock launchers? I have used a bunch and they all seem to lag so much I refuse to continue using them. Just curious what the draw to them is?

360 Launcher v2.0 on CR3.7
When I get around to updating, probably Nemus on CR de 1.4
The only two smooth launchers that work for me, beyond stock of course, but let's be honest, it isn't the best.
stock on stock because I'm awesome.

Is there anyway to theme my photon to look exactly like ics i mean the battery icon and all im rooted but bootloader is still locked
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
well you can use nova launcher to get the ics launcher and i think rom toolbox pro will let you change things like battery icons. I did a quick google search and didnt really find any ics themes but i didnt look very hard
Do you have a link to nova launcher i think that one is only for those who are already on Ice cream sandwich

Try ics launcher app. Just like ics.

Not really. It's similar-looking, but not "just like".
I have ICS on my Nexus S sitting right next to ICS Launcher on my Photon. Appearance is similar between the two launchers, but functionality is different. There are some features of the ICS launcher that are just not going to work in Gingerbread no matter how much theming you do. The biggest obvious difference is the lack of the Google search bar on every screen. Another is the lack of the Widgets tab (in ICS Launcher there is a tab, but clicking on it opens a typical "add widget" dialog).
Just curious if there is a launcher like Apex that's compatible with GB Roms. Thanks.

If you mean the ics look no... but if you mean the customization then try go launcher theirs ics icons and its extremely customizable..

Go launcher is highly recommended. Adw is good...if you like how MIUI is set up, try SS launcher..

I did remember there was a ICS like launcher for GB called "ICS launcher" or something.
But to be honest that one s*cked.
If you are looking for a launcher replacement, go launcher worked pretty well for me when I was on GB.
I always just used a Ice Cream Sandwich theme that works with ADW and Go also I think some other lunchers too.

When I was using GB I was using GO launcher it works really well and allows you to do a lot of customizing.
Adw = apex
They have same menus and configs other than the ics features. My apex setup is exactly the same as adw when I was on gb.

Took the words right out of my mouth. I would highly recommend holo launcher. It's the only ics launcher that truly simulates the ics experience perfectly (or as perfectly as you can on gingerbread). The biggie for me was the stackable shortcuts feature. This is the only one I tried that truly got it right. Spot on. And it's super smooth too.

Could not agree more! Best that I have found. ADW is also really good... just really hard to customize. Especially with custom Icons. Here's a screen shot of Holo Launcher.
I think you should go for ADW Launcher buddy...
I use holo launcher before but ADW is so good... :good: just like some user said above its like Apex launcher
here is my GALAXY Ace Plus with ADW launcher

does anyone use Go Launcher on the Rezound?
The only reason I use it is because I like having
a lot of icons on one home screen. (6x7 to be
precise) HTC Sense doesn't seem to allow this,
or did I miss something?
THanks!
i tired and it lagged like hell on both ics and gingerbread. try adw ex, thing is smooth as butter.

I'm surprised it works fine on ics for you since I read a lot of compatibility complaints. I know it works fine on gb
I've used Sense, ADW, Go, Trebuchet, Nova, and now Apex. Out of all of them, only Go gave me a feeling of slow responsiveness. All custom launchers have lots of tweaks now (including grid size), so I go with whatever is in my current flavor of ICS unless I get issues.

Running GoLauncherEX myself. No lag at all
Have ran it on the following:
Ineffabilis Dues v1.01 and v1.4
CleanROM GBE, DE and SE
Still on old firmware as well. No problems
I use go everything. Rocks Widgets, keyboard, etc, it's super handy.

i'm using it on stock/unrooted....no issues whatsoever.
I had some lag on stock. Maybe I should give it another try...
im running it on CR 4.3 without lag or slugishness
I used goLauncher. However, I noticed the icons were very tiny, and widgets didn't take up the correct size of the screen. I'm using Apex Launcher now, so far no problems.
I absolutely love go launcher. It had all the options I need plus amazing themes. Rotation, gestures, custom fonts despite ics, and phenomenal updates, nothing even comes close. Sadly it only ran smooth on aosp or cm7 on tbolt. It runs like **** on rezound, after debloating and desensing , specially on ics. Ppl suggested other launchers but none come close in terms of themes maybe in options..
I just deal with the lags and hick ups and thank my god for their phenomenal dev team they came a long way on ics
Ask not what your developer can do for you, ask what you can do for your developer.
Used it for awhile and then noticed in my proxy logs that it was calling to china randomly throughout the day. adw ex now.

I tried go launcher when I was completely stock and it did lag so I decided I would try out sense for awhile. I ran go launcher on my Droid x running miui. I ended up not liking the sense launcher at all. Yesterday I rooted and tried out a couple of roms. Go launcher works great on cleanrom 1.7.5 and ineffabilis 1.4(currently on).

I use go launcher myself. I started using it real close to it's initial release and it definitely offers the most complete package among it's competitors in my opinion.
Anyone still using this? I am, but haven't seen an update in a loooong time. Is apex o trebuchet better than adw?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk
I have ADW EX but I haven't used it in months. It's easy to use and before I had the Amaze I used to use it on my previous phone. It was a nice launcher but now it seems like a hog. Wish I can get my money back..lol
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?
Adw is quick and light on resources, but apex launcher pro is where its at nowadays! Plus I always felt like adw ran like crap on my HTC phones, always freezing and force closing. Go with Nova or Apex for ICS
I always use ADW before my amaze and for a little while after getting so I could use the ICS theme. Never had any problems with ADWEX, but since the ICS update I use Trebuchet just cuz I like how simple it is.

Why not go launcher?.. Doesn't go launcher work w ics?... I've always used it and thought it was the best.
I have always been confused as to why it's almost ignored on xda... I'd love to know why!

GO and ADW (and launcherpro before dev bailed ship) are the best for GB. If you are gonna be on ics, might as well use an ics launcher.

Indeed. I tried both Apex and Trebuchet, and I can say that I preferred Apex. It's imply got more options.
Not really the answer I was hoping for.. Is go launcher not fully ICS implemented?.. are all the functions options & capabilities not working or something?
I really interested in a clear & detailed answer as im about to do the ics update soff etc
