The other day I just accidentally met this launcher while surfing and out of curiosity installed it. This launcher is developed by PSC from Japan. All credits and kudos to him for developing a unique launcher.
This Launcher is replicated on the basis of Xperia Mini Corner Launcher but is a kind of app instead of a full fledged laucnher. It ca be used together with any launchers like ADW, LauncherPro, GoLauncher etc. I liked this app developed by PSC with a new concept and is worth trying also. Anybody interested can try.

I just cant decide which one is the best. I prefer the pinch preview feature that launcher pro has. Works almost like sense ui's, but I like everything else on adw. Mainly the docks and functionality tweaks in the preferences menu. Launcher pro is a bit more snappy, but the pinch preview has gotten me hooked. But the sense ui scroll bouncing is way way better on adw. It gels mute like sense when I scroll. which do you prefer?

I like them both alot .....been using ADW for quite sometime,,,,back when you had to flash it before it was in market ....but now that Launcher Pro allows you to modify the app launchers I am starting to like it more .....
but now i just keep them both installed
I been using adw since it was a flashable zip as well. I remember emailing anderweb about putting it on the market. Still a great app, but launcher pro has upped the ante on better functionality.

I really like launcher pro....I tried Adw but thought laucher pro was visually nicer and faster.
They are both great launchers, I have both installed but currently using ADW. I think, at this point, the scales are tipped toward ADW for me. But you really can't go wrong either way, both great devs and they work in cooperation with each other helping with each others work to make it better. How awesome is that?
Using ADW and haven't tried LP yet.

Well if that's the case, then they need to combine their apps and create the ultimate masterpiece. their pretty much very similar in many ways. The two seem like fragments of what the apps are supposed to be. They just need to bring the two together and form like voltron!! they'll take over the market together.

ADW on Ic3 Rom here and I love it. I tried launcher pro briefly but I really like the layout of adw better.
LP for me. All the icons I use most are included, phone contacts ect...

I downloaded LauncherPro last week and then I reset my phone and now I can't find in the market anymore.

The developer has acknowledged some kind of problem with the market. You can download the apk from his website. I cannot post links but it is
www dot launcherpro dot com
Awesome! Thanks dude!
launcher pro!!!
it even has the option to make it look like AWD launcher!!
hahaah.. pwnage
Im on the launcher pro bandwagon. Its much better performancE wise. The main thing I like about adw is that 6 icon retractable dock and the way it scrolls. Feels just like sense when you configure it properly. It lags a lil tho. Lp is a lil more reliable, although it had its lags in some areas as well.
Sent from my desire200 using Tapatalk
Can't use LauncherPro b/c it requires Android 2.1 but ADW Launcher is great, and the latest version has the pinch-preview desktop switching now too.
Adw and launcher pro are now tied in my book.

Go launcher, before that I used launcher pro plus
I've kind of stuck with the blur launcher actually, but I DO use the Go Launcher on my Tab 7, because it is way better than what Samsung was shipping...
Go's a great launcher, with some great plugins. I believe the underlying engine is ADW....
Give this one a whirl its still in Chinese to start but I really like this one used to like adw ex but after update it became dumb IMO after it loads it converts to English kind of a mix of miuu and adw and has custom lock screens built in

If you want your phone to look like an iPhone, there is the espier launcher. Its not my every day launcher but I have it to show iPhone people that I can make my phone look just like there's but I'm not stuck with my phone looking like everyone else's excluding the wallpaper.
I personally use go launcher but used launcher pro and adw launcher in the past. I havent used a stock launcher in a very long time.

From my own experience, and from speaking to other members of XDA and other android forums, I've noticed that 95% of people (approx) aren't totally happy with their home launcher but won't change because it offers the closest to what they feel they need.
Running off this, I thought what launchers would you mix together to create your "perfect" launcher(if you could).
Personally, I'd put together Holo launcher and Go launcher ex together with the addition of a launcher where I could totally change my dock, as Ive seen some great docks on DroidIcon.
I choose these because I like the smoothness and general use of holo but love the array of themes and widgets available specifically for go launcher.
What would you choose and why?

Holo launcher with widget tab, animations (without pro), widget tab and a tablet style option.

Go launcher with tons of smoothness optimizations.... its way to sluggish for me

After finding out about TSF Shell yesterday and wwatching the youtube videos of it, I'd say a lot of features from there would be a good incorporation aswell. It would take a lot to make all that run nice and smooth without problems though

Where do you find amestris? Is it a tablet app? Not finding it in the play store.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
id say something like apex with the ability to change the dock and also resize the icons(more emphasis on risizing icons since theyre so tiny on nova and apex).
I would do something similar to Go Launcher without all the bloat.
Trebuchet!!
I would like to merge trebuchet and nova launcher. Nova launcher without too much of customizability and nova's shadow option rocks with treb!
:good:
This is the best theme I've ever seen..
But this thread should be in general thread...
i just had a look at the thread "Post Your Screen Shots Here" and they Looked Pretty Cool i want to be able to customize everthing like fonts themes app drawer everthing im running Stocklite V8 as my rom. iv looked at go launcher ex but alot of people say it slows your phone down to snail pace
Best launcher for customization is in my opinion the adw ex. U can change every single option and customize it as u wish. Plus u can get some nice themes on google play.
I use go launcher ex on SGS II v10.1 & it runs flawlessly !

You got 4 diferent opninions for 4 diferent launchers, best way to decide is to try all ! :laugh:
I am a fan of Apex and Nova, the pro/prime keys are worth it if you can afford it
You can customize with gestures and themes without the pro keys but more gestures and transitions are available with a $4.00 purchase. Most themes work with ADW/Apex/Nova and sometimes GO.
I don't like GO though because it is a memory/resource hog.
This thread should probably have been posted in Themes and Apps.

best launcher imo:
customization---> ADW
simplicity---> holo
golauncher has lots of customization too but it's kinda, idk, laggy when run on ace
touchwiz UX themed (think s3) holo launcher is my current choice check out screenshots in s'perience rom by snowpluralism
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695477
My choice - ADW EX
Butter smooth and customizable...
Just try 360 launcher pro. Chinese language is outta my perception but for what it offers, worth making a compromise ! So much of customization inbuilt widgets, countless themes, 360 locker & themes, supports gestures, effects & much more! It's just awesome try it out !

Since a week I have Smart Launcher installed. It is super light weight, beatiful, highly customizable and last but not least super oderly, I am amazed! I tried Sony Stock, Adw, Go, Apex, 3d, Regina 3d and many more but I was never so happy with third party launchers. I thought let share it with you. You can try it out, see links below.

No widget support for smart launcher the only drawback other than awesome.
Try gt launcher prime in apps and games forum. Its jst like nova bt lots of customisations and too smooth.
