Anything else than Microsoft one that support dual screen devices like SD? I like official launcher and how it works on this device, but hate so little customization, with no option to hide unneeded apps/shortcuts being the most important.
Anyone found working one?
Is the launcher for you "Explorer" or Open-Shell-Menu?
@ze7zez I mean launcher aka main menu with app list.
Wanted to use Nova, like everywhere, but it look bad... Like really bad.
But Microsoft launcher, is just missing too mamy features

Thanks. I'll check it.
Any stockish? I know some people prefer look of other OSes, but I prefer typical Android launcher.
I'll survive with Microsofts launcher, as I did with Sony's on their "Surface" (Tablet P), but would prefer something more featurerich.

Works nice and supports both screens. Only "problem" oraz that any app launched using tiles launched on left screen and ones from app list on the right one (except whichever we choose to laugh one both screen if available).

sorry to say (this is my opinion) that app is pure crud! basically it's trying to add widgets / multi window(ish) functionality to the home screen of a sh(I)te phone! just to be like an Android phone! we already have widgets and multi window that do those things. i personally wouldn't see a benefit!
Pretty sure i've seen a launcher doing something close to this (sorry can't remember it's name, but im sure it came from the playstore, so maybe try some from there) but, pretty much this:

why would you want to run apps in half of what's already a "small" screen?
On TouchWiz, I have a choice of Customizable grid, Alphabetical grid, or Alphabetical list. I use Customizable grid so I could arrange my apps like I did back then on iOS.
I am rooted and have Xposed installed but I can't seem to find a launcher or tweek to do the job. I plan to flash Cyanogenmod on my S2 soon but unfortunately the lack of this feature is holding me back.

Not sure where you have been looking but there are dozens of launchers that have this capability. I'd venture to say that the TW launcher is one of the least customizable options.
http://android.appstorm.net/roundup...rn-android-launchers-homescreen-replacements/
The majority of these have that option.

Apex: Allows rearranging but each change affects the other pages. It does not allow pages to be customized individually.
ADW: None
Holo: Same as Nova
Lightning: Hard and inconsistent.
Note: Not to be confused with the Home screens.
I can't seem to find a launcher to make the app drawer act like TouchWiz home/iOS
I understand now. Yea, I guess it's just mostly a Touchwiz thing. I even tried a knock off Galaxy launcher and it didn't even have the function. I was just confused with the comparison to iOS since they don't even have an app drawer. You're just moving icons around on the home screen which is pretty standard for almost any Android launcher.

i don't know its contain this view but try it
Nah, Go Launcher and Next Launcher do offer the ability to move the apps around, but just like Apex, it affects the other pages. OP is looking for not only customized sorting, but also customized per page. So if they want 12 apps on the first page, and 10 on the next and 20 on the 3rd, etc.

Exactly :good:
Finally found one that does what you are looking for:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buzzpia.aqua.launcher
I've used it before, just forgot about that little feature as it's not really that desirable to me. It's quite a different kind of launcher, so you might or might not like the other features, but you have to take the good with the bad.

Nailed it Fiddling with it right now!
//updated in 2017-7-24
Ugly fix to working in nougat. It may crashes a lot in the first. But seems it can work in the last. Try at your own risk.
//updated in 2017-1-5
Now it supports customize dock and desktop column size
//updated in 2017-1-5
App renaming is now supported
//update in 2017-1-3
Per app icon set is supported
//updated in 2016-12-29
It's been renamed to Pixel Settings cause it supports icon pack now. There might be problems here and there so just try it out. I'm gonna keep working.
If there is any problem email me [email protected] or post reply.

Which version of pixel launcher you are using, I am using android 6.0 and pixel launcher 7.1.1-3359438. The dock is always there...
By shortcuts, he wanted to say the new 7.1 shortcuts on long press. Use Nova launcher, it has the ability to set the transparency and shortcuts works

Working with Pixel launcher. Please add this to Google Now launcher. The Pixel launcher annoying is the lack of choice of main screen. Better Google Now.

Hi folks,
Bored of stock Xperia launcher?
Here's the best alternative, Lawnchair.
Google play version is outdated but you'll find latest update here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/delet...627-ci-q-merge-android-apk-download/download/
You will need Lawnfeed to enable Google left panel: https://lawnchair.app/lawnfeed/?ref=lawnchair
Enjoy
I like the way that Lawnchair Launcher looks overall, but I do not like that I can not hide the dock. I prefer having a full screen look where possible.
I like it but I don't like the clock, I wish you could get rid of that and use your own..

Show me where...
in the settings. I did not see anything for hiding either dock or clock. I must have missed something or it simply did not jump out and bite me to make it obvious as to what was needed to be done.
Edited to correct misspelling.

I went into the Dock settings and I saw nothing that said "Hide Dock".
I have Nova Launcher now and I can Peek a Boo the dock with a swipe gesture so that it is not always present and disappears when not needed.
That is what I am looking for here. Am I missing something here?
Hey great, thanks for pointing that out...have a look at what I've done...if Lawnchair 2 did a clock like that I would be happy...or if you could mod the clock, colour it, resize it, change the padding around it, and the icons for the weather....so I could make it look like that..
Either way, it looks a million times better than the Xperia launcher so thanks for the advice...
Happy to be able to create folders in the app drawer.
Anybody knows how to get rid of the white line below the dock?

Via adb, you could try:
wm overscan 0,0,0,-30
And to revert:
wm overscan 0,0,0,0
Bear in mind that this simply moves the nav bar below the bezel, some full screen apps react differently to this. Good luck.
I also like the Lawnchair Launcher a lot, but it cannot work with gestures navigation without quickswitch magisk moudle， which is pity like all other launchers

Have you found a way to have gesture shortcuts? That's the one thing I miss with Nova. Doing those 2 finger swipes, double tap swipe when on the launcher screen. Haven't seen anything in goodlock that CNA mimic that
