I know it's an EVO 3D and that is supposed to be the '3d' effect but out of everything. the thing that I have never liked about evo 3d Sense ROMS is that all of them have the 'cube' scroll effect for the home screen. is there any that don't or any of them that can be changed? a tweak? let me know. thanks.
You could try a different launcher like Apex Launcher.

I'm on AOKP right now so I have classic scroll but I kinda wanted it on a Sense ROM ill check around though.
Go launcher has a sense 4 launcher, as far as getting a sense rom without the cube effect, if your gsm? All the roms have the cube effect.

Me neither, but apex and nova are both really nice for ics. ADW ex is an oldie but a goodie.

I also dislike that Sense cube effect. I think Go Launcher is superior to both Apex and Nova and that's what I use.

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.
<Blaze One>
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.

I miss both of these. I really don't understand why HTC couldn't make the wallpaper scroll. The 3D widgets are cool, but not necessary. You could always use ADW Launcher but then you'll have two launchers running at once. I've seen some, but not significant battery drain from running ADW on top of Sense.
I think they didn't do wallpaper scrolling bc of the carousel feature since it spins pretty fast it'll that couple with wallpaper scrolling will cause it to lag, idk just my thought
But they could've made the wallpaper stop scrolling when you start the carousel.
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.

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

For my part I'm on stock sense I find it's really not bad compared to LG or Motorola stock launchers. I still prefer the aosp one mostly because it's open source. I Love open source.

I don't troll, lol. I just gave my opinion that I like that one, . There was one of the guys/girls testing AOSP files on sense, they pulled them from the AOSP roms for the sensation, most seemed to work fine, so you could probably grab the AOSP launcher from that and give it a try, should work since I doubt it's name rosie.
Nova free with ICS theme by KovDev.

+1 for apex. used to use go launcher but found apex to be more minimalistic, smoother, and simpler.
Usually ICS stock... Works well enough, but still a battery hog.
Tried Apex, but didn't see a huge diffrence fron Go Launcher. I go back and forth, but usually stick with Sense.

Out if all the launchers I've tried on this phone and previous phones. My favorite was ADW EX. Since owning the Amaze I can't steer away from Sense. I like the widgets and things. I know its just personal preference but everytime I use other launchers I can't set up my screens like I do with Sense. Once we have AOSP or any CM then I will probably change it up. But until then I'm sticking with Sense

Nova.
I used ROM Cleaner to remove the sense launcher.
Ha I was also wondering this. Was just about to ask and saw this thread. I was wanting to make a sleek simple homescreen and someone said I couldn't change icons with stock launcher.
How easy is it to switch back and forth between launchers?
As easy as installing from the play store and running it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
But would it keep all the settings. Like could you set up two different launchers and have them set the way you want. Then just feel like going to a different look one day just because you feel like it lol.
Yes. A launcher is just an app like any other app. Settings get saved.
Nova, have used it since I got my Galaxy S2. Love it easy backup/restore change icons individually, and more!
Just installed Nova Launcher and gotta say its pretty cool. Here's what I created. Just two questions. Can nova launcher make the status bar clear? And I used simple text to change icons on the dock but it has black background behind the words. Can I make that clear somehow.
I use apex launcher and as nova
It's amazing, I had no trouble changing plenty of phones while keeping my layout

Action Launcher - allows minimalist approach, very fast to select apps. And Blink Feed app from appstore switches back into sense launcher so I can go back and forth.
Apex
This may be the perfect place to post this:
Does anyone know of a launcher (or can creat one) that is JUST the Sense 5 app drawer?
i.e: unlock your phone, and hit the app drawer button: THAT is ALL I want to see.

I've always liked the stock launchers over Nova, Apex, etc. Although I did enjoy them on CM roms on the One X when I had it. Usually I'm not a fan of stock Android. I've always much preferred the manufacturer skins.
