Why is my HD2 not this cool???
definitely interested in knowing!
...looks really amazing. Would like to try this new UI too. But didn't find any information over it, what launcher this could be.
Hope someone can enlighten us very soon
I'm guessing it's a combination of stuff, and not actually made into a rom.
For example, https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&feature=search_result and https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen_free
This 3d efffect he uses in his video you can get if you use "MultiPicture Live Wallpaper" as already posted in combination with e.g launcher pro.
in multipicture live wallpaper you have to use:
- transition type: 3D Rotation
in lauchner pro:
- preferences->homescreen settings->transition effect: Flip2
also ensure, that you have:
- preferences->Appearance settings->Disable wallpaper scrolling: unchecked
For users that want to use their device in landscape only this is a very nice combination..in portrait it looks very awful in my opinion
WOW

Haha that's 100% correct, you xda guys sure are on the ball!! ..except I used AWD EX launcher the task bar at the bottom/ swipe hiding was built into CM7, btw do you guys know how to get an "app organizer" that organizes in categories IN the actual app scrolling menu? That's the last bit of my 100% customization missing

I think the closest you'll get to actual app drawer organizing would be to sort the apps in groups on ADW launcher. It has the option to create and edit groups in the app drawer, and choose which one to view. I've never seen anything that allows you to put your apps into folders within the app drawer, which has never made sense to me since it would be so much more convenient. Thats the one thing that WM still has over Android imo.
wow, very nice that
What music player is that? It looks pretty cool.

With this drawer you can create folders.
....at least you can see that on the pictures. Unfortunately I'm not able to download it in my region.
It is a free app, could s.o. download it and share it here?

Here's an article on AndroidPolice with a 6 minute video demonstrating the new features.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...eleased-transitions-to-a-whole-new-dimension/
This one might finally get me to drop LauncherPro Plus!
Differences between ADW.Launcher and ADWLauncher EX
* 5 different app drawer styles/behaviors
o 3D Nexus One like application drawer
o 2 different plain vertical drawer styles, the "old one" and a new fast and smooth one
o 2 different iPhone-like horizontal application drawers, a traditional paginated one and a new one with continuous fling
* Different desktop transitions: new animations while navigating through your desktop screens. Try them all, they’re crazy!!!
* New Icons configurations/look and feel: Tweak your desktop icons, change its sizes, add coloured backgrounds, change font size, color, etc!
* New fast presets mode: Quickly change the whole desktop configuration by 1 click!
* Editable desktop icons for applications, shortcuts and folders!
* Lots of code improvements
* More, more more to come!!
Played around with it while some features are cool it still lags. Im going to stay with launcher pro.

That's the biggest reason I switched to LPP from adw. It wasn't a problem with the features, its just not as fast and smooth as LPP.
Sent from my cm6.1 Aria using XDA App
I didn't find any lag with this new version... but I'm still sticking with LauncherPro Plus because the widget resize feature works better and because the LPP widgets are so nice.
I didn't mind paying the $3.50 for ADW just to contribute to a developer who has put so much into his work and it's all been free until now. Plus, this way I'll get automatic ADW updates and maybe eventually it will add the features I want.
Has anyone figured out how to hide app labels in the drawer? I hope he doesn't leave out that feature in this version.

1.Arc (stylish )
2.ADW (very custimizable)
3. Launcher Pro (smooth)

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..

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.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
ADW EX has been updated today with a lot of fixes and options for Tablets including having the dock on the bottom in landscape and many more! There are tons of fixes for Honeycomb tablets especially for 10" screens. If you are an ADW EX user, but found it too buggy before, it night be good for you now! You can also set the secondary dock as the default which has scrolling like launcher pro.

Note to any noobs like me - backup your layout. It doesn't transfer over to the updated app and now I have to set it up from scratch :S
Niice! Thanks for letting us know, I had no idea. I've been missing ADW Ex since I updated to 1.7.. And the new additions to it sound great.
EDIT: What is the new version number? The online market still says 1.3.3.

im new to this, love the speed of the scrolling screen when i had a quick play. but looking for advice
i want a clean home screen with none of the + signs, adecent weather /time/date widget and app shortcuts same size as stock
what are people using for this sort of things decent add on recomendations would be great
How to change apperiance of main black dock? I can change only bar with 5 blank spots..not this bar for tablets.. Any ideas?
My new homescreen
Ok, now that looks clean. I love not having those icons all over the screen. If this is from ADW, I'm tempted.
Only wish that we could put things all the way to the edge of the screen, with the dockbar. Can only do it without, and that's annoying too.
Is there a good way to set wallpapers with ADW? I keep getting a half black half wallpaper result.
Thanks in advance.
I thought of a launcher which is a combination of ADW and Sony Ericsson corner launcher

Dont worry guys! Team Syndicate is already covering this in a new launcher being released on Dec. 1, 2011
I have talked with the OP and it will be a style/option in a new epic launcher coming soon
15. Half naked girl wallpaper
Oh stop whining about the wallpaper, the idea is brilliant, unique and definatly something I would use. The wallpaper is something you can see on womans magazines and billboards anywhere.
If I knew anything more about android development other than the layouts are extremely frustrating when you come from a windows development background, I would tackle this myself.
Yes, these are what I wanted too.
A goo launcher that looks nice and has cool icons with following feature.
1. Hide/Show apps in App Drawer
2. Make folder in APp Drawer
3. Uninstall App directly via app drawer.
If anyone could make such a launcher it would really be great....
@OP
This not a quite hard thing to do actually.
Draw the icons to the wallpaper of your screen size.
Set the shortcuts (or widgets like folder organizer if you want folders) with blank icon at the corners every page.
Set no scrolling wallpaper.
Done!
@yagya
That sounds like stock ICS launcher lol
So a lot of you wanted to know how I did my 3D UI in my last video.

ADW EX Launcher with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Great vid, now I have this to add to my project list for the week. I need to go from android newb to pro with a rooted phone with updated kernel and a custom launcher set up.
Fabulous tutorial. When I get my note Ill try not to mess up what you instructed.
One question though. With the 3d UI can I use live/active wallpapers (the ones that move like the moving galaxy) instead of pictures?
Static

Hi, unfortunately it's only static wallpapers i'm afraid
Static screen problem
This question is for James, I presume, the maker of this tutorial. I've followed all your steps for the 3D UI, but, for some reason, the picture is staying static, there is no cube effect when I scroll screens, and yes, screen scrolling is enabled on AWD Ex. Help? =/
Did you enable the transition effects in Multi picture live wallpaper as well?
For me it works perfectly on Go Launcher Ex. I sat the transition there as well to outside cube.
