Just installed this launcher a few hours ago and I'm already convinced it's the best launcher available and I've tried them all. Just wondering what other's thoughts were on it. If you like trying new launchers definitely give this one a try.
Added a screenshot** This launcher has a feature that allows you to download, apply, and customize hundreds of different homescreens from other users as well as upload your own homescreen. I just spent a good 2 hours browsing through a bunch of the different homescreens without even realizing it. It's sort of addicting.

checking it out. I saw the video and I hope applying themes is as easy as I want it to be.

I do have to say it's pretty innovative. Sure cuts down the time it takes to piece together themes you see online. Grant it, you still have customization but its pretty minimal. It's something that I'd use on my nexus 7 or 10 tablets.
It's pretty straight forward as far as downloading and applying the homescreens. If ur missing a widget or app that a particular homescreen requires, it notifies you and essentially downloads and applies the widget for u and even sizes it and configures it for u as well. I'm super impressed with it

Yeah if uv ever been to a site like mycolorscreen.com and tried to replicate those awesome homescreens u know what a time consuming process that can be. I'm seeing most of the homescreens from that site available for download in buzz launcher. All u gotta do is download and apply. Not sure how anyone can go back to a nova or apex after trying this one.

Try using Android SS for screen shots. Simple, easy, free, no ads!
Works great for me.

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

Just want to get a view of interest if this theme would be wanted by anyone. I loved it and built it right before the 3.5 craze.
Like stated in rader3bravos thread sense stuff cant be themed, but if your using an alt launcher it would work.
Please vote, and if you want reply with what rom you would like to see it on.

Ya bud, port it over. The more themes for this phone, the better. I could always use some help with finding new framework, so by all means, port away.
Thats a very nice theme you got there .
Looks amazing I like it simple
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
yup its nice, but i wish someone would make a rom and theme which make the phone really stand out tech wise. Would love things like the snapshot picture or video which shows on cover of album for pics or vids, or even ont he widget on desktop to actually play life preview as the snapshot your hovering over, or make everything all techy and extremely futuristic if you know what i mean

Meaning new png's from Sense 3.0. There are at least 50 +, png's that need to be resized. There's also entirely new png's I've never themed before. It's going to take some time to get it fully themed.

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!

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.

Yeah everything works. Pushed it to system like instructions said. I got a random FC once but it's not a problem. It's light and fast, but too bad for the lack of settings. I know it's for the paid one, but I'm not really gonna cough up two bucks for it so yeah. Also I have problems with 4x4 widgets not showing correctly. Other than that it's great.
I really like the widgets tab on the app drawer because adding widgets is a pain for me, I have so many to scroll through.

Let me just explain before you guys start hating on me... I recently gave my mother my g note bc she like the screen size.. however Android Oscar seems a little difficult for her and I know ios is easy. So..Is there anyway I can get an iPhone theme for the note? For any easy theme for her?

An iphone theme won't make it operate like an iphone. It will only make the homepage and some graphics look like an iphone. If she wants an iphone then get her an iphone.
Or does anyone know a Rom that is simple like the iPhone?

What does she use the phone for?
With most launchers (I use Apex) you can hide many things. You can lock the desktop so she only has the homescreen with just the essential apps/icons on it.
Just like what rangercaptain said. You can get all different kind of launchers like apex, nova, golauncher etc and download the iphone theme and make the note looks like iphone. Put all the apps she will use on the desktop, take out all the widgets and lock it. There you go. Problem solved.
what about Miui, ROM? I know there is not a lot of support in the thread for MiUi, but it has the look, ??
there is an iphone like theme for miui, the thread links are in my signature, you can access the super GNote page via my sig picture.
