Hey guys. I've been searching a way to make the CM 10.1 app drawer background become transparent. Can someone help me out?
I've followed some tuts (such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835833) but they only teach how to make the notification bar transparent.
Thanks

I've tried launchers before. They worked, but I'd like to edit Trebuchet. I'd like to use default launcher. I'm not really into launchers

Apex and nova both have this option and are both based on the stock launcher, they just have a lot more features. They look identical to stock if all you change is the drawer transparency

hum, I'll try them. What to you think: apex versus nova? Which one is the best?

Try both they both offer virtually the same features I use nova launcher, but thats cos I got the prime version in an app sale
Nova(https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=nova+launcher)
Apex ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=apex+launcher)

ty very much! I'll use apex cause it's free. Maybe I'll move for nova pro later.
Both have free versions and an add on that costs money but adds lots of features

No adw???
Apex?
Zeam?
rosie?
ADW Launcher Ex, until Apex...now I am loving Apex over ADW Ex, for these reasons:
-Folder Styling (Circle/Square/layered etc..) maintains when added to the dock. ADW uses the 3 icons spread out, with a vanilla folder background when added to the dock...(maybe I am missing the folder styling when in the dock?)
-Transition Animation "Card Stack". I am tired of the ADW transitions...card stack is a clean refreshing transition that I am enjoying for now...
-Displaying Visual of Widgets in the App Tray. Fantastic!

360 is my favorite third party launcher...
No ADW EX?
Probably the best most customizable launcher with the best dev..
Although I like Sense so I voted Rosie
360.....launcher pro used to be my favorite

Trebuchet for me. It's just simple enough.
Edit: Tried Apex and I'm impressed.

My personal favorite is Apex, but since it isn't listed, I voted for Nova, which is also cool.
I've tried Launcher Pro, Rosie (obviously), Go Launcher EX, and Nova. I stayed on Go Launcher for a long time, but I decided to try Nova after seeing that it provided gmail unread notifications on the gmail icon. Nova provides more space on my home screen for my Android Agenda Widget. It also seems smoother and faster than Go Launcher. Thus, I am sticking with Nova for now. I've never tried Apex.
simply the best launcher is GoLauncher EX.

If I were you I'd remove rosie. If you have rosie you might as well add touchwiz and motoblur. I'd stick to 3rd party launchers only...

Apex is by far the best of the AOSP-look launchers.
Thank you. Nova Launcher is very smooth and fast except when you fill a page of apps and slide from a page to another. Can you tell me if is it possible change lockscreen to another similar Cyanogenmod 9 to?

There seems to be enough screen space to fit 5x5 icons on the homescreens instead of 4x4.
What's the easiest way to do this on a stock SGS3?
I don't think there are any mods yet to change the stock TW launcher. You might want to check out Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher if you haven't already.

In fact, TW is already modded...

Or just install another launcher such as Go Launcher.

I tried out Nova (free) for a few days, have uninstalled due to:
- icons sometimes take a while to reappear.
- Calendar / S Planner widget sometimes takes a long time to populate.
The TW mods appear to need root... so I'm back to stock TW, and realizing that I don't need more than 4x4 that badly.
Just like the title says, can you recommend me good launcher for my tablet? Apex Launcher can be a good alternative, Go Launcher HD doesn't give me what I need.
I'm deciding to change my launcher because it doesn't give me what I need in terms of widget capacities, homescreen numbers and the like.

Apex or Nova. They are both good, although I am currently preferring Nova.

I assume we are talking about tablets running ICS or JB. Why would you use a launcher from the stone ages when there are much better launchers based on ICS available?

Yep, my device is on stock ICS. So far I'm running Apex Launcher and it seems to fit my needs. There's a lapse though: when the portrait grid is resized to 10x10, folder names are somewhat lapping each other.
I'll keep this thread open because I still somehow need inputs from you guys. What I keep on looking now is something that replaces everything just like how Go Launcher replaces everything in my phone.

Change the grid size so it is smaller.

So it seems the best contenders are Apex + Nova. I'll try Nova soon.

What is the fastest and smooth launcher for ICS tablet for Low ram devices???
Hi,
I was using ADW launcher with ICS.
After having flashed to Jelly Bean, I have noted that the launcher
I was using with ICS (Adw launcher ) is no more compatible .
Adw is in my opinion much more user friendly than TW, has more features like
having more than 4 icons in rows or columns per dock or having a black background below the name of the icons , etc.
Any idea wich launcher has also these features?
Thank you.

I am currently using Apex with official JB. Works fine.
Nova and Apex are still the best for me basically the same features for both launchers
