So... any of you guys tried this? I haven't been running it today, no need at this point with MikShift, but if/when I go back to AOSP-based roms, it will definitely be my launcher of choice, especially if they continue to develop and include matching widgets for each Launcher interface.
Thought I'd put the word out, it's quite a nifty home replacement. Find it on XDA or Market.

I kinda like launcher7..ish..in the android hacking section there's an entire post dedicated to it and images and all..really cool stuff

I was trying out "MYLAUNCHER" that's free in the market. I gotta say, it's not that bad. Still in beta though and in the early stages so not much in the settings menu...
Back to ADW for me for the time being...
Yeah, seemed really boring. Just different docks, right? I think that's supposed to be part of the appeal but it wasn't for me.

If they do decide to include widgets to match the different docks, (sense, blur, touchwiz styled) then it'll be amazing.

Just tried it. Not too bad. I hate horizontal scrolling app drawers but I like the sort options and being able to reorder the apps. The animated trash can opening up eager for my junk was cool too.

Wouldn't that defeat his purpose of having a low memory launcher?

Yes, it would. But, since its open source anyone can build and modify it to release with their roms.
If someone wantexd to do that and include widgets, I don't see the harm.

I'd like to request a WP7 Themed rom. Maybe using MIUI as a base could work...
I like the WP7 style a lot and think, with all the roms we have now why isn't there a WP7 rom?
go to the market and get launcher 7.....
It's free, and will accomplish what you want

How so? I tried it before out of curiosity and it worked fine
android seven pro is a good one
Fede( Developer of launcher pro) posted an early alpha release of a music app. Use Google or go to Engadget. Its just like WP7. Use it with launcher 7.

Very buggy. The tiles are weird and had some issues with the tile colours, also the application drawer sometimes is just pure black, nothing else.
Me too out of curiousity, it's also a huge battery drainer and RAM hog.

Do you have the system dump??? Can you link it up... I believe other files will be needed to make it work...

Try using Android SS for screen shots. Simple, easy, free, no ads!
Works great for me.
I think I'd want the real ICS, fan made ones are usually not as good

Ill give it a shot (pun intended) when i get home from work later. Im also gonna take a shot at the launcher for u as well. I work for an iphone developer in the process of making the switch to include droid so im learning as much as i can. Any info about phone or tablet it came from or anything u think will help feel free to pm me. Been ripping apart the droid sdks from cupcake to gingerbread for the past 2 weeks at work already and on multiple forums soaking up as much info as i can in my off time. Am already considering posting a rom of my own based off the liberty test build. If i can get the ics launcher workin within a few days ill include it as the stock launcher lol

Sweet! I love to test ROM's. Flashing and SBFing all the time!

ss didnt work for me either but found 1 that does. Well its no ics but heres a peak at my slightly tweaked liberty and the iphone launcher i fooled my boss with lol. Gonna jump on UOT kitchen later and theme the notification area and toggles more to my liking. Theres 6 total screenshots and i zipped them to save data for any1 not on wifi or unlimited data

I just installed this. Works great and looks great.
Edit: spoke to soon. The settings manager in the recent apps doesn't open. The music in the recent apps force closed for me.
I really like the recent apps and how that's displayed.

Oops meant to press quote, but you could try using the stock HC launcher. I like that the best out of all the ones I've tried
I basically have 3 issues with it #1 wasted screen real estate, #2 no folder support, and and #3, can't delete unused home screens

I think he meant the stock honeycomb launcher, not the stock htc launcher. The stock honeycomb launcher does not have wasted space, the other two I'm not sure about.
Ah yeah I saw a "t" in there that wasn't there lol. Yeah I saw the team syndicate one and I tried it out, only problem is it was kinda designed for gb and froyo so it has a virtual notification bar that can't be disabled... However that was the free version it might be able to be disabled on the paid I dunno. Anywhere on XDA I could just grab the apk for the actual stock launcher and install it?

It's in my ROM. If you don't want to download the whole thing for the launcher i could just link it to you
Yeah I might eventually go custom rom, I've had plenty of experience with my captivate , but for now I think I'm just going to stay stock for the time being with the flyer, so if you want to link it thats cool. Thanks!
Wow I guess golauncher hd beta for tablets dropped out today, i'm not sure if it's on the market but I downloaded it and it works. It looks promising

GO Launcher EX is good. Has lots of features that most Launchers don't
But I always miss the glorious sense widgets that you cannot get any where else.
Honestly I've warmed up to the sense launcher a bit. Its basic and bare but the cool animations and awesome sense widgets make it worth using. As far as real estate, Go launcher HD had the issue too, just seems to be a honeycomb thing so whatever really. Think I'll just stick with Sense for now!
yea go launcher HD (beta) is a nice alternative to the stock or htc launchers for sure. just started using it today and really like the folder support
it's not on the market u'll have to search around for it
Yeah I found it from a google search, had a download link,and thats how I got it
Yeah I tried Go Launcher HD and it certainly a beta. Need lots of work.

the stock launcher is pretty bland, I would highly recommend Go Launcher EX or ADW over that if you want a different launcher.

I use this one, it doesn't run sense widgets, but runs great and looks awesome. I even put it on my phone.
hello, i really dont like the style of the boring standard CM7 messaging app (sms/mms) so iv been looking around for an ICS themed one, iv found a few but none of them are for the atrix, and i also dont want to use gosms or any apps like that i just want to theme the standard CM7 app by replacing the Mms.apk
i was just wondering if anyone could port this theme for the atrix somehow? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629138
i would like the 2nd picture down the ICS themes one, heres is the download for the .APK that needs porting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1061346&d=1337038589
i also think a lot of other people would prefer this theme!
thanks! :fingers-crossed:
