So finally we have the gingerbread... - Galaxy S I9000 General

...on our Galaxy S,...
... But where is the Gingerbread launcher?!
Let me explain.
I've tried all launchers,free,paid,good,bad... But my favourite and best is the one from nexus s,or the "real" gingerbread... And I had it!... on froyo... And it worked perfectly! But when I upgraded to gb(jvb) and installed all the gb launchers I could find,they worked,but not perfectly,on the app drawer,all of the apps are blurry! And thats really bad...
Why is that? Is it maybe becouse the market versions of gb launcher are compiled for older versions of android? Is there a way to compile a version only for 2.3? would that solve blurry ugly icons? Is there a way to install the apk from nexus s? Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I would really appriciate any answer/help. And please,dont try to tell me: "try adw/lp/go/ or any.other launcher" :-D
Thanks...

Search for the gb launcher for Nexus S, I use that one

Buy Nexus S then if u need that launcher. Galaxy S have tw launcher.

Use simply honey rom! Besides all the other goodies it's got, it has the GB launcher and GB keyboard.
**Simply Honey 3.0, CF 3.1, JQ1 modem**

Please. You can use any damn launcher that you can get to work. You don't have to buy a new phone, nor should you...
To the OP: Have you tried this?

I noticed that the icons were blurry when not using hardcores kernel.......probably due to a lack of sharpness tweaks and voodoo colour.......

I don't like Touchwiz either so I installed ADW Launcher ex with the gingerbread theme. It looks exactly like the stock GB launcher IMO except that it has far more options to configure your UI.

Wave launcher might be worth a look .

@Duckbert
I'll second that. ADW launch + Gingerbread theme & icons - perfect !

I bought a used SGS from a friend best shape.
Then I upgraded it to rev B 2.3.3 and wantes to see the score in Quadrant.
The score was little 938 but at System information i got
Current freq: 400MHz
Any idea why?

So finally we have the gingerbread...well we did but it was taken away

[Request] MIUI w/ stock icons

As the subject reads, I would love miui with stock icons. I know some of you may not agree, but people say that my phone looks a lot like an iphone at work when I show it off running miui. That's not a bad thing, I personally don't like it though. Anyway, if someone could come out with a "stock" theme (or whatever your want to call it) then that would be amazing.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
You could just use LauncherPro or a similar dock. The icons will still have the colored box around them, but they will be much smaller. Obviously the four big icons at the bottom will be gone as well.
That's the thing though, I like miui's launcher, but I don't the icons. I don't like their blocky-ness, if that makes much sense.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
I agree. The icons blockiness and the fact the app icons can't go into a "drawer" are the only reasons I went back to Virtuous.
+1000000000
No app drawer
No android stock Icons
Despite the fact that this MIUI Rom is awesome, those 2 things made me going back to my old android stock ROM.
And what is the interest to put an alternative launcher since if you put a launcher (LauncherPro, Zeam,..) You lose the MIUI advantages...
They should considerate that app drawer (and putting app in that drawer) is (in a ergonomic point of view) is the best thing ... Since Day 1 there's a "menu" in every phone, and seeing all my apps on the homescreen is a little bit ... disappointing me !

There's a theme in the online theme section called Android2.3 that will give you the stock icons

How to make my vibrant the coolest EVER!?

I'm running on Bionix-V ''2.2 (Froyo)'' by teamwhiskey.
What else would make it really really cooler and better.
And optional: Whats the best apps?
Thanks!
depends on how far u wanna go to make it that kool.. the vibrant will never be the koolest fone ever.. not even wen it was released. but wut u can do is install a Front Facing Camera, flash the new gingerbread leak (has a lot of bugs, only in Beta as of now) and thats basically it. with gingerbread on it that should make it cool enough considering not a lot of android users have it
Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey 2.5 is pretty cool. You should check it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973208&page=50
When CM7 becomes more stable, you should definitely check that out
Axura or Trigger Axura has a boatload of themes in it CM7 when it is no longer beta......
Trigger + ADW EX + Ninja Apps + Widget Locker = Profit

@OP
I use atriarc, nothing else. no addition kernels, no modems etc.
It works perfectly the way it is.
It gets updated every week so its hard to keep up but i found the first version the best and i haent flashed a rom since.
Fast, beauty, and stablity usually don't come in 1 rom.

You make a wallpaper in photoshop with icons... then you set your wallpaper, and place blank icons over the wallpaper (the wallpaper is the icon).
If you use Trigger, you will love the wallpaper I just put up.

my galaxy tab
Currently, am on cm7, just as laid out by the instructions from xda. but i had been going with overcome rom for a while(it jus got boring, simple look). i always had sluggish slowing with theming. and overclocking, was at best 1200, and still accassionally slow. 2nd best rom i used a lot was also carismax rom. this was stockish, solid stable. End of the day, BIG up to cm7, stable, dead fast, looks cool, and themes dont even slow it at all.
cm7
2.6.35.7
cpu speed(i didnt even need to adjust. default is fast and stable enough)
adw launcher( honeycomb theme)
had to add rock player(from the market)
do the spare part, compatibility mode trick(enabling full screen on apps)
Thanks for sharing!
I guess I may check it out soon!
But is there no official support for cm7?

Overcome has excellent battery life. Depending use I've had it running for over 24hrs
V4 has been optimised for battery, like most custom roms. Look on overcome thread first post for all the mods... there's a lot. Easiest to install too.

Can I call for a bump?
just flashed overcome, very satisfied, but looking to ICS? ?
anyone comment on the stability?
govenor info, and i/o scheduler would be awesome aswell.
and if anyone have, a perfect memory setting (e.g supercharge settings)
thx in advance :good:

Nova Launcher Prime

I've been using Nova Prime on my phone and decided to try it on my Iconia. It has a lot of customization, and the Prime version has gesture shortcuts, the ability to hide apps in the app drawer and some nice transition animations. My favorite feature is that you can long hold on your screen to add Widgets

Nope haven't tried it yet but I will I haven't had any issues with Nova whatsoever. The beta was super buggy but the newest version is stable.

Agreed and when u use root explorer to make it a system app it looks like stock but give you so much more. Plus I think its more fluid I do wish anderweb would update his adw launcher I feel like he's kinda stuck on what to do with it since he has such a wide range of users froyo up to ics.
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
I gave Apex a shot... It's definitely smooth and full of options, however I get a FC every time I long hold an icon in the app drawer to make a shortcut.
Edit: I found the developer's thread on xda... Launcher needs to be pushed to system/app not installed via the market. Works flawlessly now.

What was your rows vs columns settings for your desktop grid option in Nova? Mine looks smaller than yours. I think I have the wrong settings.
I am running Apex from market so far without issue. How do you push it to system/ap ? Thanks in advance. OK- got it.
