First of all I want to say that this launcher is one of the greatest I've ever seen.
Then I would like to say that it could be a nice feature if the developers implement an option to use icon themes used in Nova or Apex into Themer launcher.
What do you think about that? Could be a nice idea?

Just letting y'all know NOVA launcher is out of it's beta stage and is on the market now in the free version and prime. I highly suggest purchasing the prime version, even though it is $4.00, it comes with a lot of cool settings.
>>>updated to 1.0.2
added on prime:
gestures
swipes
hide apps
additional scroll effects
[Nova Launcher | Nova Launcher Prime]
Screenshots would be nice
click on the links... they're links to the market.
The launcher is great but it doesn't have an option to change the grid size in your app drawer, only in the desktop. I wanted to have 5 colums in my app drawer but there's no option to change it.
well remember it is at the 1.0 stage and I'm sure they're going to add more features soon...
This launcher is pretty great! been using it with Turls ics kang. I will purchase to support your efforts.....Thank you!
Question for ya though. Is thier any way to be able to turn the Nav bar on and off? It doesn't show up on the atrix, but it would be wonderful if you could turn it on when using the lapdock. I know I'm probably asking for a miracle here, but thought I would ask....Thanks!!
lol sorry I'm not a dev. on this launcher... simply passing the word on...

Haha, my bad!
Anyway, bought the prime, and wallpaper scrolling with the verticle flip transition is very nice! Well worth the 4 bucks if you're running ics!! Great launcher!!

I agree 100%... I'm very keen on having desktop gestures... I like to hide the notification bar.
wrong post
bump .
I wish this was available on pre-ICS. It looks slick, but I guess part of that is due to ICS.
I got a little deny happy with SuperUser when I installed NOVA. Turns out it needs SU for adding the widgets to the drawer. I had to completely reinstall to get it working...

yeah, that's written in the app description on the market.
Permissions:
Root/Superuser: Widgets-in-drawer with previews is require Root due to Android framework limitations. Widgets will be displays in a list like Android 2.x if root is unavailable or denied.
INTERNET/ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE/ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Optional & Anonymous error/usage reporting.
CALL_PHONE: Only used if you place a direct-dial shortcut on the homescreen.
Wallpaper/Vibrate/Status Bar : Standard Launcher functions
BIND_APPWIDGET: Only if installed as a system app or root. Required for adding widgets from app drawer.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Backup/restore and beta updates
quick question:
is there a way for nova launcher to restrict or lock homescreen items to avoid being moved or deleted?ofar i havent seen any provision for that feature yet.
im on resurrection 9.4 btw and loving the nova launcher so far.
yea I would love to see that as a option too... there is a website (http://feedback.novalauncher.com/forums/145180-nova-feature-requests) you can request features, and I believe this is one of them...
can you add an option to hide widgets in the drawer?
I bought it and is super!!!Using it on TURL ICS9 powered Atrix.It was my first app bought from Market
Sorry for bad English

Two very good ICS launchers & both have their respective fans !!
Apex Vs Nova ..... It's a very interesting topic of debate ... I would really appreciate some facts from the actual users as to why they prefer a particular launcher for their ICS device !! I would also like to include their "Pro" version functionalities in this healthy debate !! :good:
Sorry , just noticed a similar thread which was created some time back , All i need to know is after so many updates which launcher is worth buying as per their present day performance ??
Apex Pro OR Nova Prime ??
I know this is not one of your choices, but I have been using Trebuchet launcher (the launcher that comes standard with cm9) and it is awesome. Very smooth, snappy, and has tones of options. Reminds me of ADW, but in ICS form. I know that probably does not help you at all, but it's just another option to consider if you want
The first launcher that lets you change the grid in the drawer to fit more icons will be my favorite launcher.
Apex ;D because it gets most of the features first then nova gets after

To the hardworking developers, with due respect, i have been using PAC ROM since long time on my LG OG, one thing i am missing from the very first day is the customize able rows and columns both in the Home Screen and App Drawer, and Re size able icons, specially in 4.4 build the icons are so big and have an order of 5 columns, so they don't look good, if the respected developers could please consider my demand. thanks to all in advance!
Use Nova launcher
I really recommend using Apex Launcher (would give link, but new member here), as it supports icon and font themes, easy to pick up and customize!

If you want to keep stock launcher (Google Now Launcher), Bexton has made an awesome Xposed Module that adds the features you want.

I use Apex since a few years, too. For me it's the best launcher. The customizability is great. Besides there are a lot of themes at play store.
Apex is the answer, have not needed anything else after first try
I'm using PA 5.1 and I really appreciate the option to change dpi settings so the screen can take much more content now.
However the icons remain with the same sizes and are looking kind of blurry now. So if there would be a icon resize option as in the Launcher+ app, that would be a good feature to complete the dpi resize option.
Use a better launcher

Thanks, that of course is one option I am using currently. However I think it would be a good improvement to the standard launcher as well.
What needs to be done to make it an official wish for the standard launcher in PA? Do I need to post something somewhere?
It's about a 99.9999999% chance that it will not happen. We have zero plans to do anything with the launcher. It's just not worth our time and there are so many better options for a launcher out there.
When most of the users install their own launcher immediately after flashing it makes messing with a paranoid launcher a waste.

I see. Thanks for your explanation.
So since themer seems to be dead (no updates and the app doesnt load themes etc.) what would be the best alternative launcher? And i'm not talking about nova launcher or something like that because nova launcher doesnt change the homescreen the way themer does. The one alternative i found is Buzz Launcher but are there any others?
I had the same question and have not been able to find an alternative.
The problem is that we can no longer load the themes.
Is there a way to download them ourselves and manually install in Themer?

It used to be possible. But you had to download them off the site. But the site itself is quite broken, and google says it may have been hacked.
You could use some other sites to get the direct download link. E.g. I got this Mosaic theme from Lifehacker. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/94231qd5cs8hmiv/AACtRG8aIoO0AC85PfzTBpqda?dl=0

Buzz launcher was similar to themer. Have not tried it in a very long time though. Have no clue how it has changed since.
Just saw it , themer is no longer being updated, mycolorscreen is offline. I can recreate all the themes in total/lightning launcher but I need screenshots. Anyone has screenshots?

You could really do this?
The theme I am still using and love is `Tree2`. A screenshot from google image search is at:
http://mycolorscreen.com/wp-content/uploads/homescreens_2012/312318/App Tree2New_original.jpg
(No idea how as the rest of the site is down)
You click the icons in the tree to open them, but some give the option of opening multiple things, like the people icon. The charging bar was kinda cool too.
Look forward to seeing how you go 8)
Cheers

I use klwp from play store is amazing i left buzz and themer long time ago didn't seem very useful to me anymore
KLWP when used alongside NOVA Launcher Prime is an excellent choice both for designers & enthusiasts. You can customize and build your own home screen with animations and actions triggered by click, slide, or any other action possible on an android.
I would definitely suggest KLWP as the best and only alternative.
Have no clue how it has changed since.
Does anyone know how's the battery consume in KLWP? I'm thinking it may consume more battery because of being 'LIVE' Wallpaper.

The live wallpaper is active only when you're watching it. If you're using other apps, it should be fine.
