G2 Launcher dock

Apparently its customizable, but I can't figure out how. Anyone else tried it and managed to change the dock shortcuts?

Screenshot shows new GVoice widgets and the new Launcher. Not any different, except more screens and an apparently customizable dock.

Isn't that screenshot just showing ADW Launcher, or something similar?

No. It's launcher2 from the G2 system dump.
This screenshot should show it a bit more; no home app has screen previews like Launcher2.

gonna try it on cyano 6 final

On Sense ROM's it won't work like it should. Problem is, that the phone application isn't installed.

What phone app? The stock one? It'll use the HTC one. Quote a few sense roms have stock contacts and dialer anyway

Only if you adb push it. ADW is configured as stock Android launcher on CM6 so you'll have to remove that to get this

I think that's one of the theme from ADW Launcher, search market with "ADWTheme One" and you should be able to find it.

He misspelled it. It's actually called Balancer Launcher.
It's ok, I still prefer the Arc and Launcher Pro.

Thx man! just tried it out. I like it. Screenshots are also availabe on the market In order to find it easier - the correct name is "balancer launcher"

Thx looks better with the transparency now. The last one got after rotation the phone with ticked option: "customization/senzor rotation"

The most interesting part is built-in File explorer...
thanks mate.

tried it..pretty good...but i'd prefer the followong in the order mentioned..
1.Arc (stylish )
2.ADW (very custimizable)
3. Launcher Pro (smooth)
4. Balancer (maybe )

It's really nothing special.
For me, it is...
1. ADW
2. Arc
These are the two main ones.

i guess some of its just down to personal preferance, personally i think adw and launcher pro are abit old looking even with themes. i wouldnt even class arc launcher as its just a transparent app tray...android ui needs a makeover imho anyways and the balance launcher just brings something abit different to the table

You guys should try Go Launcher..

It's the best. Apart from the occasional landscape missing dock bug, it's perfect.

i like it the built in task killer works great! but the app tray scrollin is very lagy for me

it`s very slow, for me adw launcher ex is the fastest and i have no problems with it

same here with adw launcher ex......my favorite..

Tried most, still prefer adw ex. Have to admit Go Launcher Ex is getting close though.

The Launcher should be the same. the difference is the pro has a hardware keyboard that when slid out acts as the trigger to flip landscape. The launcher has the functionality to show landscape, we've seen it with HDMI or on models with hardware keyboard and I've heard reports of people with livedock working (for me doing OTG keyboard/mouse it stays portrait).
I had just hoped he managed to hack it or something, but I'm skeptical until we get at least some proof of concept, even if it's buggy.
Show us a youtube video of phone going landscape without hdmi or post a buggy hack.

this guy is an idiot? Whats hios problem with letting us try?

guys, just try for LANDSCAPE mode, if you succeed then only continue any discussions here, please !!!

<Minor thread necromancy>
I found this thread whilst looking if anyone had hacked the stock Xperia ray launcher to support landscape mode and thought I'd report this
All you need is an app to force landscape, and the SE launcher will happily switch orientation. There are two on the market that both seem to work fine:
Orientation Control (Paid)
Ultimate Rotation Control (Free 7 day trial, then paid)
Not sure if there are any free apps that do the same, but I was happy to pay for the first one as it does the job.
I'll post some screengrabs in a minute

[Q] ICS Launcher

So today I was browsing the Google Play store and I found this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.SyndicateApps.ICSv2
Has anyone from here tried this and is it any good? Hopefully it can't brick the phone, right?

Just did a try with "Go Launcher EX" and "ICS Theme Go Launcher EX". The menu was white and the text wasn't visible, just the app icons.

yeah I tried it
its nice and looks like ics, but there is a problem in the labeles of the applications in the app drawer
n its slow
if u want ics theme, crack adw launcher ex and download ics theme.

Or just get Phoenix launcher. Still under development but looks great already. And the widget tab in the app drawer actually works.
