Hi...just interested to know if people are using any alternative launchers or alternative apps such as the messaging app as opposed to the stock stuff and WHY?

I use QuickPic instead of Gallery. Because you can hide folders and you don't get the network folders showing up.

Is that the paid version as i miss vertical grid scrolling option?
What about messaging apps...don't think the stock app offers privacy mode!

I switch from back and forth from stock to the Xperia s launcher. It runs smooth on this phone and looks great too.

Sorry - ignore me. I thought I was in the Galaxy Tab forum
Hey, I was wondering how do you add apps to the launcher at the bottom by the app drawer buttons the home screen? I took out messaging and internet by accident and now I don't know how to add it back, thanks
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Just drop and drop when you are in home screen, so make sure the apps are on current home screen (I'm pretty sure I don't use TW launcher)

If you are still using the stock launcher, I would highly recommend to change it. You won't have to root just download it of the market. Best launcher for SIII is Nova. Try it, it will let you have 6 icons vertically on the screen and so much more.
Good luck

Are you using a launcher besides touchwiz? If so then that's why. You have to use TW.

Probably some built in BS specifically to that widget so you have to use TW. Its stupid.

CalWidget is a good alternative for other-than-TW launchers; check it out on Play Store.

If this has been posted before, I couldn't find it.
Found his today on modmydroid.net and thought it looked pretty cool. It free in the playstore and very easy to use and customize.
It d/l's as an apk, so you don't even have to go to recovery to install.

Can anyone help me wth making a new tile and where can I find the app drawer on here I do love the launcher
EDIT: Figured out the app drawer but still trying to figure out how to add new tiles
Long press app in drawer. Tap add tile. Long press app on home screen. Tap the pencil icon to customize. You can resize (1st). Then Change out images from your gallery or use launcher icons. Change background color. Or change from center to extrude if you want image to go out to the edge.
