I have a US SGP5 using latest Carbon ROM (thank you Meticulus) and the default Launcher3. The Google Search Icon at the top of all home screens is a solid gray bar with no text in it. Is it just me ?? See attached screenshot. Thanks.
Try to go to launcher 3 settings and turn of search bar. Then go to widgets and drag the Google search 4x1 to any place you feel comfortable with.

Thanks, Where might I find launcher 3 settings? It's not in my apps
Try to press the menu button on home screen and on the right go to settings and that should open your launcher 3 settings. If that doesn't work then try to go to your settings:home: and then you should be presented with trebuchet, Google now launcher, or launcher 3 (may just launcher 3 because it determines on the gapps). Then go to launcher 3 and open l3 settings.

What ROM are you running at the moment or SE firmware?
That can determine if you can get the app drawer back or not?
And, how did you delete it?
Andriod 2.2.1
andriod 2.2.1 cyanogenmod 6.1.1
Or simply reflash or backup apsa on astro and restore.

I've done this plenty of times, im using adw Launcher so this could be different for other launchers
Long press on your home screen, Launcher actions, then select open/close App Drawer.

Easiest way would be to install a different launcher.
I believe you can also add a shortcut of the app drawer.
I was wondering all the different launchers there our, right I have adw launcher and launcher pro, I'm looking for more

I've been using pure breeze launcher and have been loving it.
The biggest part I like is the kite. Almost any program I'm in I can bring it up and have my most used widgets and shortcuts available. And all I have to do is hit the back button and I'm back where I was.
I especially use it with the xda app. Sometimes during writing a post and I'm not sure about specific directions, I bring up the kite, open the internet, double check info or even download a pic of what I'm talking about, then hit the back arrow and my half written post is still there. I can continue on like I never left.

Sounds like Wave launcher. I mean "kite" functionality. The best part about Wave is that you can use it with any other launcher as a "add-on". Last week was free as Gold app on GetJar. I checked and it's still free. Give it a try.

Wave launcher is awesome! I really think google needs to buy them and put wave launcher in as stock android.
But with the kite it allows you to bring up the app list where you have all your apps. And all you have to do is hit the back button.
It let's you use your launcher app, as an app, when you switch between apps.
Imagine pressing your home button now and being able to check out you home screen, open your app drawer and run a program. And you can press back to get to the previous app you were in before you pressed the home button. Pressing the home button doesn't mean closing out (in a sense) what you were doing.

Maybe you didn't know but with Wave you have ability to bring all your apps to any screen. In Wave settings change Long-press functionality to App Drawer. I set time duration to 1 sec.
But I don't use App Drawer much because I use Gesture Search app with Wave so in 2 sec I could launch any app, game, contact etc. from anywhere.

Can people compare and contrast some of these against touch wiz? Do all widgets work with each?
Can you also comment on how smooth they are and known issues? I'm new to touchwiz coming from sense which I actually liked a lot.
Also if I set one as default how can I undo it later?
ADW Launcher all the way, I've messed with a lot of them and it seemes to be the most bulletproof for me anyways.

As an android noob a few years ago, Launcher Pro was great. Then I moved on to Go Launcher and really liked it. After reading this thread and trying some of these others, I've really taken to Regina Launcher. It has many of the functions that I like (3d animations). But to be honest, we are really lucky to have all of the choices that we have at our disposal. The best part about it is that your homescreens and settings are saved with each launcher. So if you find one you like and set it up to your preferences, you can still swap between launchers and your settings are saved with each. So when I revert from Regina back to Go, it is still the same way that I left it.
I'm a big fan of the Sony Xperia Arc launcher with corners.

I use go launcher, specific features I like:
gesture to hide/show status bar
multiple docks i can scroll in loop
resize widgets
nice ICS themes
task manager built in
much more!
With the stock TW laucher of my SGS 2 (ICS) I would like to move pages in the App drawer, say move page number 5 to the end (page number 12) but I just can't figure out how to do that.
I can move Icons, add and remove pages and folders but I can't move an entire page.
Is this not possible with the App drawer of TW launcher?
As far as I can remember you do it the same way as you would with home screens. Pinch & drag.

If using Nova Launcher, go into home, advanced settings, overlap all widgets. Then go into dock, advanced settings, dock-as-overlay.
If using TouchWiz launcher, I am unclear on any solution.
Hey Guys,
I have been using the Mate 20 pro for a month now and I was wondering if anyone knows how to activate that option where newly installed applications are sent straight to my screen rather than remain in the drawer until I create a shortcut manually. I cant seem to find the option in the settings.
Thanks
Yes you use Nova launcher, then you can switch it on in the Home Screen Settings section. ?

This settings for Home shortcut is there if you use Drawer home screen style, not Standard. If you use Standard home screen style all newly installed apps go on the Home screen, because there is no drawer.

I'm using Nova launcher, I have this switch off because I arrange all my applications in the drawer in to folders, tools, social, banking ECT. And frequently used apps on the home screen.
