Is there a launcher app that would allow a live wallpaper on your main screen, but a plain black screen on the rest? I'm generally happy with the Apex, but will experiment for this ability.
(Crickets chirping)
That's what I thought.
I think all launchers use 1 wallpaper native across all homescreens. Im not aware of any that allow otherwise as of yet. Sorry if this isn't much help to you.

Go Launcher has a plugin which will allow for multiple wallpapers. I'm not sure if any other launchers have this option.
Hope this helps.

Can someone tell me what the best launcher is to use? And does anyone know if someone is working on making a Galaxy Tab launcher? Because that'd be amazing!

Honestly Launchers are like cars, what works for me may not work for you... Personally I use, and love, ADW EX. That being said people swear by Launcher Pro.
Zeam has been great for me.

I rather enjoy ADW myself. But I've got Zeam and LauncherPro that I use from time to time just for a change of pace.
I seem to be having trouble with shortccuts (adding) on launcherpro an dean,
I just get a quick black screen and then i'm dumped bcack to my main screen.
I do not have a crash. I uses autonooter to root my book.
Is it just a bad root and i should do it again from scratch?
Or is this a launcher/book issue?
Thanks

Still trying to find the Launcher that allows a scrollable bottom dock bar, and/or the option to change the visual effects when swiping through home screens.
Anyone know which one I'm looking for

LauncherPro does both of these excellently. I highly recommend trying it.

I'm using awd ex, and I'm very happy with it. Recommend it for everyone. Prefer it over LP (used both alot)

I personally prefer Zeam over ADW and launcher pro
ADW is the way to go. Always been happy with it...
I was using LauncherPro, then switched to ZEAM. However I recently revived an old OpenHome purchase for my old Behold 2. I dropped the Eris theme on to it and have not turned back. The bottom sliding drawer is a nice touch.
I hate the zeam app drawer. But it is the fastest one. I use adw ex
Nook Color via Xda App
I used to run Zeam, came pre-installed with one of the Auto-Nooter scripts or something, but recently switched to ADW. I use ADW EX on my Android phone and highly recommend like many otheres here (my girlfriend owns the Nook Color or would be running the EX version of it on the Nook too)
ADW EX ftw...

Hi, everyone. I'm just trying to find out what minimal launcher there is out there. So far, the best example of this is probably slide screen but I would like even more minimal. I'm just wondering if anybody here knows of a very simple one page launcher with no dock or widget support but does have an organizable drawer?
Thanks.

ROFL! Yes I guess that meets the requirements.

I would suggest zeam launcher to you. Fast (well so far I've found it to be faster than launcher pro), minimal, and functional.

Or u can try launcher 7. It replicates windows mobile 7 interface

What launchers have you already tried?
EDIT: It looks like Dxtop might suit your needs. If not you could try using a launcher you like in combination with apps organizer to organize your apps.
I was going to post links but it looks like a need 8 posts to do that.
---
You could give the MIUI rom a shot if you can't find a launcher you like.
P.S. Did you see the edit in my last post?
---
Not being able to flash a new rom is a somewhat sad situation.
You could try using desktop visualizer to do some tweaking to your homescreen.
---
Yeah, that's what it is. If you find a launcher you like you could maybe use desktop visualizer and apps organizer to customize your screens to something you find sufficiently minimal... Just a thought.
Sweeter Home?
Still in beta and if I'm honest can be annoying to change to but you can have as much or as little as you like?

Try MyLauncer.
It's in the market.
I've seen V Launcher on the market. No widgets, just organize icons on your homescreen, kind of like iOs, I guess. I've never tried it since I love widgets & customization, but it looks like what you're looking for.

hey all,
I am running the tiamat hammerhead rom... I like it but right now there are not too many great themes for the xoom. A few color changing ones and the touchwiz port which i did like, but im down for something more. The best way to go about this short of doing my own theme is to get a good home launcher and use some custom animations and icon packs...
Here is the rub.. A lot of the home launchers are too phone-ish.. If that makes sense. Any suggestions? I was partial to ADW ex launcher but i looove the stock launching set-up. I mostly would like to maybe change animations, speeds, etc, but most importantly use icon packs. Any ideas for me or suggestions on good launchers with a stock home screen feel? I dont want my xoom to have a home screen like a giant phone lol
I just stick to stock until someone makes a launcher for honeycomb

Lol i guess that will be the case. No one has any advice...
I would recommend ADW EX, but since it hasn't been updated in 3 months and isn't fully compatible with 3.2...
Yeah adw ex doesn't work well with 3.2 at the moment. I believe the older adw (non ex) works but u gotta find an .apk for that

Not true, imo, ADW EX works great, so smooth with my config and I like having 6 screens. ADW settings is mostly disabled, meaning I can't change the size of icons, basically. But everything else works really well.

Yeah thy made a 3.2 compatible version today... Still not all the way there in my opinion and quirky as anderweb releases tend to be at first until they find all the bugs. Props to them for the effort but i am still not sold. Gonna have to just try the stargate theme coming out soon! Which looks badass!
I'm sorry if there is already a thread like this, I tried to search, but nothing similar seemed to appear.
My question is if I can set a wallpaper to rotate when I flick the home screen, like on the default wallpapers, kind of like a panorama view. I have some landscape wallpapers which I would like to do that with.

sense 3.0 and 3.5 did away with the sliding wallpaper. if you want a sliding wallpaper you will have to switch to a different launcher
Would you recommend the Go Launcher EX?

Hello XDA - Developers.
I bought the HTC One M7 a week ago; Im satisfied so far. But I got one Problem.
When I got the mobile, the Stock Wallpaper was scrolling too when I scrolled to the next page (Sense, NOT the Appdrawer... just saying..)
and now the Wallpaper I set doesn't scrolls.
Any possibility to enable the wallpaper scrolling ? Or is it due to Sense 5 ?

Have you had the same experiance ?
ok, maybe is trivial, but.. is the wallpaper large enough xD ?

of course...
Sense 5 doesn't have the ability to set a scrolling wallpaper. Only third party apps can help you here. In no circumstance can the sense launcher use a panoramic wallpaper. Might be possible to implement in a ROM though.

Did you do both steps ?
Select image(s)
Start live wallpaper
Make sure to click on "Start live wallpaper"
It worked for me.
Or are you using a Launcher ? Asking because Im not sure whether this app works with an extern Launcher, such as Nova or Ex etc...
