Is there any mod out there that can disable the icon names from the homescreen?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Most homescreen replacements can do this. I personally use GoLauncher and use that feature.
Here is my setup:
Hyperdrive ROM
Cobalt Theme
Blackout Google Playstore / Dropbox / GMail
Blackout Dialer/Contacts/SMS

As noted above - I use Nova launcher and turn off app labels as well. I think you'll find Nova, Apex, or Go Launcher superior to the stock launcher.
sorry but I am not a fan of AOSP. I really like TW. Besides, Won't Nova launcher override Hyperdrive's settings/ tweaks?

For those using nova..

Nottach and desktop visualizer will allow you to do that to Touchwiz launcher.

Nottach only hides dock and quick setting labels.. I am not going through each icon with desktop visualizer just to hide the stupid labels. I really wish there were more development for this phone besides colors. Im all about performance. Any other suggestions here? If not, please close the thread.

Someone would probably have to modify the tw launcher itself to do that which I've never seen one to do it being most just use third party apps and launchers for those things it's not really worth the time to make...I don't think you'll find any options aside from what's been suggested...have an all white wallpaper so you just can't see them? Unfortunately using tw launcher doesn't leave many customization options...best bet would be finding a dev that does modifications to tw and see if they'd be willing to take the time to modify it but imo seems like a lot of work for something that already has multiple ways of being done...I've never seen any mod specifically for that, just a bunch of apps n different launchers

I find this widget selection screen clumsy and ugly in Touchwiz, it's much better in GolacherEX and other launchers.
Anyone know how to make it display widgets list alike, like it was before?

long press home screen, select widgets from menu....job done
Thats exactly how widgets look when i do that, this was like this on SGS3Touchwiz, Galaxy S2 had this list alike widget list, also had mod that same widgets were grouped together.

Nah...first time now i like how stock launcher looks, nova is ugly.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
If you need stock TW launcher then I think you need to get used to it. This is how stock ICS launcher handles widgets and apparantly sammy didn't bother changing it.. But I kinda like it.
Lots of things sammy dont think, they should have listen the users more. Nova is ok, Golauncher seems better, but i stick with stock till someone makes new hacked version of this touchwiz.
I really like how stock launcher change pages, havent seen so cool looking on any launchers even they have more options to change it.

I do like TW launcher but what bugs me a lot is the way TW launcher create folder. Samsung choose to use ICS style on the widgets but decided not to use ICS style on adding folder. Doesn't make any sense. :banghead:

I have the NonSense ICS ROM installed on my phone. It has Apex Launcher installed which supports Go Launcher Themes. Yet for some reason it only enables the icons. Any ideas why?
There is an option for 'skin' and 'fonts' but they are greyed out.
Any way to fix this? Or is there cuttently no support for the full themes?

Have you upgraded from the free version?
According to google play Apex Launcher Pro unlocks the following features:
- Multiple configurable drawer tabs
- Unread count notifications
- Dock swipe gestures
- Two finger gestures
- More transition effects
- ADW, LauncherPro, and Go Launcher theme support
- Batch add option for folders
- Option to merge folder contents
- Widgets in dock (1x1 only)
- Overlapping widgets
- More features on the way!
Apex was cool but I have yet to find a launcher that has everything I want all in one. Each launcher has something I like, but none all in one.
I saw that, but does that just mean icon support or the entire theme? I don't want to spend the money only to be disappointed
Yeah haha that's so true! Every launcher has pros and cons haha

Just use Apex or ADW (New version kicks ass)..
Hide the docks, use multiple screens and have it place an icon on the desktop for new applications.
Be like iOS but with widgets.. Ain't seen anything with no app drawer really.. Those Windows launchers maybe?

Dude, seriously, if you don't want to move your finger a few times at initial setup and keep replying "I want this ONLY", do it yourself.
You've been offered a bunch of alternatives that will behave just the way you want, except that they'll need 5 minutes of your time to set up.
Lightening Launcher
Taken a look at Lightening Launcher?
Buy an iPhone?
Is there a launcher that looks like this?
DIdn't see a thread like this, or maybe I missed it and search didn't show it.
What launcher are you guys using with your note 2 ?

Nova launcher
I initially installed CleanRom 3.5 with the Nova launcher option, but felt that visually it seemed slower to open the app drawer and switch screens, probably because of the animation? So I stuck to TouchWiz, and am pretty happy with it. I could be completely off base; I feel like TouchWiz is one of the better android skins, definitely better than sense.

Did you try changing the settings in Nova? You can change the speed of the animations. :good:

I'll give it a shot. I love trying out launchers . I do wish somebody would try something radically different when it comes to launchers (not just an iOS-esque type layout).
I switch between Nova and SPB Shell 3D. This beast can definitely handle the graphics, even with live wallpapers.

Nova with a custom icon pack.
TouchWiz. It feels smoother to me than Nova and Apex on Beans' ROM.

Digital Soul red icons (my entire phone is themed in red and black)
I find Nova to be BY FAR the smoothest/fastest launcher there is.
I have the paid versions of both Nova and Apex. I don't even bother installing Apex anymore.
TW is OK if you don't want any of the custom options that a launcher like Nova gives you, but Nova is every bit as smooth as TW after you play with the options a little (on any ROM)
I think the new ADX launcher is amazing, a lot of cool features like widget previews, fast and all the customization. It's won me over.
This is also the first device I've used that TSF Shell is great on. Perfect size for it.
Just curious if people prefer stock or a replacement launcher?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
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.

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.
I love sense 5 too much to switch
