Launcher7 Windows 7 launcher for android - EVO 4G General

http://www.androidcentral.com/android-quick-app-launcher7
I've seen a lot of postings on XDA about bringing windows phone 7 to EVO. why you would want to do this.....i have no idea, but for those that want that look-n-feel without switching handsets, try this out.

people want win7 itself. Like the OS, not the launcher. The OS is smooth and well developed. The launcher is, well just a launcher

But hey, thanks for your comment!

I said a few months ago I'm sure someone will make a launcher that emulate s wp7

i tried this for a week and it was smooth as hell. nice looking too but also very basic, no widgets or anything.

The launcher can just show you how it looks, but it is by far from the actual thing

I think he means the UI. I could try to build a ROM based on it if you can find me a ROM from a QVGA touchwiz device

There is a video of touchwiz 3.0 on a Wildfire on youtube at the moment.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpE02_hR9mU&NR=1
Check it out!.
why do people do this stuff? I have honestly not seen any UI used by a phone-manufacturer, which i would call superior to launcherPro :-D

Its fun to try, but I agree. LauncherPro is true awesomeness!
Why do people want crap on their awesome phones? Sense is x100 better than touchwiz (any version) LOL
I had TouchWiz running on it, but the app drawer eats the last line of icons on every page and i don't know how to get the icons away from there. I might try to look into the apk, maybe there are settings to change.

where is this iphone rom? has anyone seen this? ios kind of ported to android

I saw a couple youtube videos of ios ported to android.

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/ios-4-ported-successfully-to-htc-magic/
http://www.coveringweb.com/2010/09/ios-4-successfully-ported-to-htc-device.html
I'm sure there are lots of other vids out there.
well, my question is, where is this? did anyone ever make a working rom out of it? I have an incredible and even though ios is closed i would definitely love to try it, and lets be honest, ios is pretty smooth.
I know its slow, but i'd love to try it. have any android devs spent any time on this?
seriously, i know people would be interested in this rom if devs got it ported (to the incredible!!), as evidence, look how many people like miui
where is it?
thanks

there is a ton about this on google^
I know they say it runs super slow, but if someone worked on it i'm sure they could speed it up. (and it be pretty awesome anyway)
the thing is, i dont even know where the rom is (or if it exists, im starting to think it doesnt)
why the hell would you get an android phone to put an iphone theme(rom) on it???? sounds kinda stupid to me, why not just go buy an iphone??
Well it would be pretty cool to try. And the iPhone apps are pretty nice if they'd work.
The ui and apps are pretty good.

i love the idea of porting iphone apps on android phone. but i simply hate their UI. kinda boring for me....
If you love ios looks but still love android you should try the MIUI rom, better, faster, and its based on android..

Not iOS
Sorry to burst your bubble but it's not iOS. You can see that the wallpaper scrolls as the user scrolls through the different home screens. That implementation is only on Android. It's probably just a cleverly made skin (right down to folders) used to simulate the iPhone. The two OS' are written in two different Linux kernels which makes it incompatible to be ported.
Yeah it would be neat though.
MIUI with the iphone theme installed?

SPB Shell 3D - Wow!

http://www.androidcentral.com/spb-shell-3d-android-very-slick-launcher-thats-just-too-expensive
So, I bought lol
It's AMAZING. Very smooth, great transitions, and 9 full homescreens! You can even put more than 9 on if you want to, lol
I'm on Warm 2.2 now, but this is so good that, as a Sense fan (Sense was the reason I bought this phone), this is seriously pushing me to a Gingerbread ROM like CM7. Give it a try!
PS- I am in no way connected to the developer(s) of this software. I just love it
i installed it on my OG droid but it is just a black screen....no luck
Ouch, 15 bones.....looks neat, but not for that much $$. Going to stick with LPro until this puppy comes down in price.

I did see in the comments on the link that someone posted a link to the apk... not gonna advertise for warez but if you want to try it out i you *could* try it from that and if you like it buy it... I bought right after I saw the video, so I can't even confirm that it works
Something that concerned me when watching the video is that this launcher looks like a lot of flash and bling, but maybe lacking on some other areas of basic functionality. From reading the comments (in the original link) of people who have used it, there seems to be confirmation of my fears.
People are complaining about lacking certain basic features like widget resizing... or this:
Not to mention the fact that you can't arrange icons and widgets the way you want to. If you want anything on the bottom row, the top 3 rows have to be full

I'm not sure I fully understand that statement, but in general it sounds like this launcher is optimized to show off its own animations/widgets.
I don't want to pay $15 for this, nor do I want to download warez. So for now, that means I can only judge based on videos and comments. From my impressions though, it looks like switching over would cripple a number of functions that I find very useful in other launchers. In return, I would get some admittedly cool animations, and some visually interesting UI changes, but I don't see any functional enhancements that really interest me.
At the end of the day, I'm very much a "form follows function" kind of guy, so I suspect this just isn't the launcher for me. I'm sure it will be great for many other people though.
I their version for winmo, it was nice, but not for me. Im like the last guy, i like fuction looks. The whole thing with different launchers is to configure what you like. Maybe im just s simple guy, but this launcher looks like something kids will enjoy, i prefer the smart, in smartphone.

Doesn't work on GingerBread?
played with that earlier mentioned version (cough *warez* touchy subject) a little bit (only lets you run it if you turn mobile data off so it is pointless) and it was cool.
a lot of 'wow' factors that look good but it isn't very functional. launcherpro+ blows it out of the water as far as quick and easy getting to apps & widgets.
I got the spb shell 3d today and omg i am amazed at how smooth it runs and how it barely waists battery. i hated that i couldn't put apps wherever i wanted but then i downloaded desktop visualizer and customized it however i wanted.
btw i have an evo 4g and i am running cm7 nightly #41 gingerbread with savaged-zen 1.0.1 bfs nosbc kernel. (AMAZING!!!!!) ^_^

Nobody EVER ported an ios rom to samsung or any android device !! That roms were customized to look like the ios (they put ios launcher, ios keyboard and the other apps that you can find on the play store)
What stopped them? Well since that its easy to make ur android phone look like any other phone by customization.

but there is different of installing app and launcher and flashing rom that already customized, the ram usage and other settings that making the phone much more stable and faster are exist on flashing the phone to another rom

Well if they did it back then, it looks like they stopped, or never started it for the S5, so you'll just have to customise it yourself

You need to understand that Android is kind of the Anti-iOS, same as Linux is anti Windows.
You can see some iOS inspired design such as MIUI, but what you ask is something that most wont loose time doing.
First, any "iOS" skin/theme will only hog the system and the iOS functionality wont come so what's the point of such a "port"?
why would you want a iOS in a Xiaomi device? they literally stole the iOS UX and out it in the MIUI.
with the exception of the toogle actions and the notifications tab, otherwise it's almost the same experience as iOS

The Xiaomi feature has always been in its interface that it allows change so it is good to combine all the visual features in one phone

iOS look is quite dated to be honest, same old same old, recent miui looks better imho. As for smoothness: that's not something a theme/skin can fix.

You can't port iOS features to Android!
The visual you already have in MIUI.. but features you will never have.
Honestly my advise stand, i think you are better buying an iPhone (even used) if iOS features and look is that important. You will never have it on Android
