ADW Launcher EX theme problem / on Saurom Rom - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Im using ADW Launcher EX. When applying themes the widgets and dock bar don't change....i get the rest of theme. I've tried everything i can think of.
Im also on Saurom rom....
Any ideas or has anyone experienced this?

I'm a fan of ADW EX. I think (working from memory) you have to now pay attention to the three drop downs under the theme you select.
Currently running Go Launcher on ICS (tried Apex and others) and kept coming back to GL... Ran it on GB, too, towards the end.

Best launcher to use on the Atrix?

I found go launcher ex to be the fastest ...
I don't believe this belongs in development.

Agreed. I think the right one is "Themes and Apps"
I use 'launcher pro'.
Launcher pro ftw smooth and nice

I have to give ADW love... Have used all. Go Launcher was my favorite until I got ADW.. Launcher Pro is nice as well, but ADW is all-around better for my needs. I would suggest trying all three with Home Switcher and see which one you like the best.
Adwex all the way. By far the best with the most options

Here is what I've found with launchers
Most graphic effects and home screen customization: Regina Launcher
Lightest most efficient most customizable options : Launcher Pro and/or ADW
Best themed launcher: Launcher7
other good launchers: Sony Xperia Arc Launcher ($1.99), honeycomb launcher (a lot of bugs but very nice otherwise), and SPB Shell 3D Launcher ($14.99, I think).
Hope this helps I have personally tested all of these launcher and currently have all but the SPB launcher installed

I don't know if they've fixed it yet, but I found that Go Launcher was causing my internal sdcard to get wiped at least daily. As soon as I uninstalled it, the wiping stopped.
I moved to LauncherPro and haven't looked back since.
Im a fan of go launcher ex but now I Luke the stock launcher in alien rom

I find all are laggy at least on some occasions, which is slightly disappointing considering the hardware.

I've never had that happen with either Go Launcher or LauncherPro - however, I also don't use much in the way of widgets. If someone uses a lot of them, there may be no way around some occasional lag, no matter what launcher you use.
I'm currently using Go Launcher. It's running more stable than ADW for me.

Launcher

So, in peoples opinion. What is the best home launcher and why?

When using a Sense rom I prefer to just keep using the Sense launcher. When I had my Evo and primarily ran AOSP roms I like Launcher Pro Plus. I liked the customization it offered along with the Widgets. The Widgets are what I think seperates LPP from say ADW and others.

I'm pretty much like the person above me.
When I'm on a Sense ROM, I prefer the stock launcher.
But when I'm on an AOSP, I like LauncherPro.
Ditto. LPP FTW.

I gotta give it to ADW EX. LPP was "laggy" for me for some reason. ADW is user friendly and highly customizable. Props to Anders...
I personally use LPP as well.
I've tried ADW but like LPP better.
Only complaint with LPP is that after a reboot it lags to start, but that's it.
It's all up to personal choice.
You can have more than one launcher installed.
Install a few that interest you, try them, and stick to the one(s) you like.
Adw ex ftw

I've come to enjoy the sense weather animations too much. I used to be a LPP junkie, but now I find myself using Sense more and more. Now, if only we could put 5 rows of icons on the home screens in sense
Sense can be edited for five rows with a smali edit. A little deep of a mod, but I remember it from my hero days.

If you can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. I did a google search, and I couldn't find anything, other than someone mentioning to edit the rosie.apk. There were no instructions beyond that.
ii used to like the stock launcher, then got bored. Switched to LauncherPro Plus, and it was freakin awesome.. except it tended to lag. Then ii switched to ADW Plus. It doesn't have the widgets from the sense ui or Launcher Pro, but it looks beautiful, works pretty seamlessly, and has a few extra perks perfect for me.

[Q] ADW Launcher or Go Launcher ?

This poll is about which launcher you prefer on SGA. ADW o Go ?
I have long time with Go but i want to know if it's recommendable the ADW.
Go launcher is gud. It eats less memory. Adw is a lil bulky & sumtimes is force close. Stay with go launcher.

I find ADW Launcher better than GO Launcher
ADW launcher FTW..!!
N the fact is go launcher eats more ram than ADW..!

Never thought I'd say it as I'm a hardcore go fan, but adw is currently better.

I like more Go Launcher because ADW don't allow to create folders in app drawer. This is only option witch I'am missing in ADW.
Go Launcher is so much smoother, I think that ADW is good but I am a sucker for performance and eye candy.
Not much of a fan of either of the two, but I would prefer ADW to Go any day
adw ftw!

Launcher Pro all the way
But I'm switching to ADW as soon as I figure out how to hide apps from the drawer
I like ADWLauncher very much. . .
I will go for Go Launcher because of eye candy

Go launcher has a widget for almost everything and some cool customization. Uninstalled it from my ace because it makes my phone lag like hell and eats memory like no tomorrow. Currently using The best launcher out there: ADW EX. Its a paid app because its HELLA WORTH IT.
The speed and simpleness and all the high customization are just incredible. More than Go Launcher I must say. And the best of all, IT RUNS SMOOTHLY. Sure Go Launcher has eye candy to the max and go locker and all those things. But whatever. I prefer a mix of speed and eye candy. ADW EX is hands down the best out there for me.
Go launcher it has smoother app drawer and more themes

I'm going for GO launcher. Much smoother and much eye friendly. No doubt, I vote for GO.
I prefer adw launcher. Go launcher use more RAM. (not sure now).
I don't like go launcher app drawer(3 tabs!!!)
Adw free is open source and is used in Cyanogen as default launcher.
Bayint Naung you can disable the 3 tabs app drawer in Go Launcher settings .

"Apex" like Gingerbread launcher?

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 anybody still use adw? If not what launcher do you use?

I noticed (as many of you probably have) that adw launcher died after 4.0 came out........is anybody still using it? The funny part was that I purchased adw for 5 bucks and then ended up buying holo,apex, and nova.....I just recently bought sf launcher to help development....but is anybody still using adw? The latest one has many features..
