Enable launcher themes without root - Verizon LG G3

Download launcherpro(the old one)
Set lg launcher as default. Launcherpro only needs to be installed
Add the "activities" widget with the launcherpro icon
Go down to "home" and hit it
Pick the one that is circled in the screenshot
Profit. Now you can download themes from the g2 or flex or optimus g pro or gpro2 threads..

Thank you. Got it working and all but the themes aren't really all that. I really miss Unicon and can't wait for it to work on the G3.

Im on a g2. But should be the same since im on a g3 port

the keyboard themes and fonts are working as well.
metal body keyboard theme is awesome
im really digging MDcats fonts

Im having no luck getting anything to be able to be applied in the theme center thing. Nothing shows up regardless of what I dl. How did you get a keyboard skin to work?

Also I found if you add widget then to home an go to one that lets you access hidden menu scroll to bottom an select this an will give you the theme option in display in menu

If you have made something like this, or have pics that would work, please share
Well, I tried and failed.. if someone comes across this, please PM me if you have some nice icons that will fill a page as if it were a wallpaper (like the link in the OP).

If you use adw ex you can choose no icons in the ui main dock settings , put icons on the hidden dock so you can at least open your app launcher .when you remove the icons from the main dock ,you can then place widgets where the icons would have been. then use desktop visualizer icons/widgets to completely cover the home screen. Then put the "regular" icons on the hidden dock you can swype them up/down ,they will appear over the desktop visualizer icons ,and will work.( incase you dont want the empty looking dock option )you could put your launcher and like for or five icons there (on the hidden dock), the only problem I'm having is finding images that will look good as desktop visualizer icons

[Q] android 2.2 default launcher

Hi, im looking for the default android 2.2 launcher, but with the " move item" function in the app drawer (like in the lg launcher). ( want to arrange icons the way i want it and not alphabetically).

maybe the optimus v launcher? it looks like froyo.
please help
use Zeam launcher ! you will find it on market
Launcher Pro brings you the Froyo-style and is highly configurable.
zeam launcher does not have the froyo styled dock. also not re-arrange shortcuts in menu.
i have launcher pro. i like it but i cannot re-arrange the shortcuts like in the lg launcher.
Any other launcher that might work?

Of course you can, just delete all shortcuts and put them in the order that you want.

no you can't i tried and have been using it for months, the only launcher i found was the go launcher. but it does not look like froyo
Go Launcher has the "arrange in the order you want", but the app drawer doesn't look like the one Froyo comes with (which is not really a bad thing).
Check it out.

no! only 2...
Yes its possible to have more on dock. Open app drawer. Menu, edit. Drag apps down ;-)
It's the same on all touchwiz versions I'm sure...
Hmm doesn't really fit our screen. There is a big gap between dock and first row of homescreen icons. Icons seem too small too.

yeah it comes with an icon pack, but the launcher sucks, it is smooth and all but icons are all over each other lol, its just messy, i tried changing the dpi from 120 to 110 to maybe make it better, nah the app just force closes, so, app looks like crap. its nice if you got a bigger resolution screen tho.
don't change the main theme and it will fit for wildfire screen
or look for themes with square icons.
other themes ( with round icons) icons go over each other.

[SHARE][APP] SwiftOpen - Fast Launcher

Hello. Yesterday, i was searching for an launcher (NOT a home launcher} which allow me to run apps more quickly from any app I'm running at an moment.
I found this app named SwiftOpen. It's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-swiftopen-fast-launcher-beta-t2871523 .
It allow you to add apps shortcuts, even some settings like wifi, so you can put wifi on more easy. You swipe from right (you can change the place from where to swipe) and the launcher come.Read the whole description of it's thread. Oh, and don't forget to press thanks button to the developer
Review / My opinion:
In my opinion it does a great job. I don't even have to press home button to go in another app. It use about 15 MB ram. Last night i had 58% battery and i kept this app running in background and today, in the morning, i had same battery percent. So, it seems that it doesn't drain battery.
Now i don't even need to use the home button, as i placed an shortcut of "home" in the bottom left
I downloaded the latest version released. I encountered one bug: when i want to change the place of an shortcut, the app crash, but the shortcut get moved.
Here is an screenshot. You see an white square in the right, it's because i kept my finger there to take an screenshot, otherwise the launcher dissapear. By the way, you can add more shortcuts, even Tasker ones !!!

Also found this app recently, it's the best launcher by a long shot. I have a G4 and I hate the softkeys taking up screen space, as you mentioned this app means you don't need any other buttons or home button.
Thanks for the tip to put this launcher in the place of the home button, I had it on the side but now that you mention it that's naturally the best spot to put it.
Do you use it on Lollipop and use the Alt-tab feature?
That's not working for me on 5.1, think it's a lollipop issue?
