Which is the smoothest, responsive launcher for san francisco?

[Guest chicarito]

At the moment im using the touchwiz 3 launcher but find that it frequently gets buggy, anyone else having the same problem? I've read many times that launcher pro is the best but that also gets buggy and i liked the look of the touchwiz, anyone know of any other launcher?

Try ADW Launcher.

[Guest Freekers]

I suggest Launcher Pro

[Guest Ash.UK]

ADW

[Guest abbas_sheikh]

ADW and Launcher Pro are both THE BEST, but sometimes its personal choice. I used ADW for a while now I am using LauncherPro and finding it better to *my* needs and slightly faster/responsive. I suggest you try both for a couple of days atleast and decide which one suits you.

[Guest Azurren]

Honestly after trying both I don't see what people see in ADW :)

Launcher pro is faster and smoother. The only thing that I can see people would like about ADW is the horizontal sliding app tray. But android designed it to scroll vertically for a reason: It's better.

Yes Launcher pro is getting more and more bloated. But it's still the best

Anyone think about MIUI Port?? :) It's awesome, some devices has MIUI Port (as Nexus, Desire, HD2 and some Motorola)... maybe is possible create for SF.

I tried everything. Launcher Pro definitely. It is the smoothest, even compared with stock launcher!

[Guest chicarito]

so i take it no one has tried touchwiz 3?

I've just set that one as default on my wife's San Fran, much smoother than the default Orange set-up.

[Guest zed2012]

ADW or Launcher Pro BUT Launcher Pro gets my vote, I have used them both for a while on a couple of different android phones and think it is alot more customisable and super fast ... even faster with the froyo alpha and transitions on super fast .. :)

i used them but i think it was a differnet one, becauses so many of them are avaliable. mine works ok not bad quite smooth but not as smooth as launcherpro , launchepro sometimes is slow for me too, just keep using task killer once in awhile

[Guest goatee]

+1 for LauncherPro

[Guest deweylewie]

I've tried 3:

Orange Launcher/homescreen - Slowest

ADW - Not as slow but still laggy when flying through the app drawer although it does have really good customisation and settings menu

Launcher Pro - Fastest, no arguments

[Guest Sere83]

Yeah +1 for launcher pro. Super snappy and so customizable.

I tried touchwiz 3... not as smooth as smooth as ADW with touchwiz style drawer and noticeably slower than Launcher Pro.

Just gone from ADW to Laucher Pro which is faster and a lot smoother.

[Guest Bas-Tyra]

+1 for Launcher pro ... been using it since Paul's R3 ROM and now the 2.2 alpha ROM ..

[Guest jt!]

just taken to using launcher pro, its awesome, only issue i have is that if i reboot the phone it never remembers which launcher im using and i have to reselect it.

[Guest booster22]

ok i may be being thick here.

But i deleated the orange launcher, where you get to pick which launcher you want at phone swich on

Where is the settings to chose a different launcher

Thanks

or go to manage applications in settings, choose the launcher you are using, then press the button "clear default setting" , then when you go back to the home screen , you will be prompted to select again.

ps try this - with launcher pro and ADW , the speed setting on scrolling etc are set too high by default , try slowing them down , you get a much nicer smoother effect on the animations

LOL Agreed...Launcher Pro has way better Memory Management Than HTC SENSE, Much Much SMoother & more customizable

ADW jus looks a bit nicer
