Guest i am not a hacker Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Hello! There are now many launchers available for our beloved San Diegos, from the Eye-candy launchers such as SPB-Shell 3D, to the simple Zeam Launcher. Which one do you think is the best? There are some exclusive to ICS such as Nova and Apex which seem to be popular. You vote! Let's find out! Personally I prefer GO Launcher EX, but I am going to try out Nova launcher and Apex. Feel free to comment why and add any others. Edited October 11, 2012 by i am not a hacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BadMan PimpY Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I use SPB Shell 3D, I find it the smoothest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrankieADZ Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 LauncherPro for me, even tho I prefer the customization of other launchers like GO and ADW; I find them not to be as fast & stable for me. if LauncherPro had the customizations found in some other it would be prefect imo :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matcho13579 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Nemus Launcher is the best for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Weezle Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I currently use ADW Launcher because it was integrated into the CM7 ROM I am using and it does what I need it to, previously I used GO Launcher which I found to be usable and had some nice customizable features, if not a little resourch hungry for what it was (although that is perhaps in part due to the stock OSF ROM being a tad bloated and clunky). I would try some others but tbh what I have fits my needs and as an engineer I am inherently lazy ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cusy Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 FTL Launcher on GB, Nova on ICS for me. I find FTL a bit faster and lighter than Launcher Pro on GB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Davidoff59 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I just installed the Xperia S launcher from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636301 Its pretty minimal but it works and is pretty fast. The weather widget works also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GoGokh Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) Im using Go launcher and launcher7 on cm7, and i love L7 for all the options and the ui. On ICS i use apex. Ps: if you want the real ics launcher on gb http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25693967 Edited May 5, 2012 by GoGokh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest i am not a hacker Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Why LauncherPro? It is just as smooth as GO Launcher EX, but GO has more features and is being updated more often. Is it the widgets because GO Launcher has sense style widgets too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oia Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) I'm currently on CM9 so I use Nova Launcher Prime. I use SPB Shell when I'm on CM7. Edited May 6, 2012 by oia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheChanMan Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 TSF Shell is the best, packed with features and ultra smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrankieADZ Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 found another another Launcher called Holo. not currently on the store, its on Xda and is in beta 6 stage but its really very good and worth a try imo :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimJam707 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Apex for ICS, ADW EX for GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest i am not a hacker Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Could someone explain why they use LauncherPro? I moved from it after a year of usage due to lack of updates. I moved to GOLauncher EX and it's better in every aspect. For the HTC widgets, use GO widgets with HTC widget theme or transparency theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try running it with the v6 super charger scripts over on xda and you will soon see why ?:D Edit On a second thought, you only need to update you're launcher if it needs updating if it does the job faster and more fluently then most then there is no need.

Guest Trenchy Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Just moved from GoLauncher to ADW. GoLauncher was getting a little too feature rich for my simple needs and hitting the performance of my Blade. Last update in particular introduced some massive lag issues going to/from the home screen. Also, I could never find a way of stopping JUST the desktop from rotating! It's a shame, as I do miss the theme I had on there and liked the feature that shrank down the icons and placed them on little tiles so that everything looked custom but you didn't need to wait for an updated icon set.

Guest ColdEmbrace Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Just moved from GoLauncher to ADW. GoLauncher was getting a little too feature rich for my simple needs and hitting the performance of my Blade. I moved away for the exact same reason. I'd use Zeam if I could have just 5 icons on my dock that were a little larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
