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.

Yep... I had stopped using it, but this was a killer update. It is really great now.
Yup Anderweb always comes through. Excellent update. BTW what happened to the option of changing the dockbar background?

Nice to hear! I can't wait to get my TF back in my hands from the shop....
fantastic update! Been eagerly anticipating this
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.
1.3.3.1

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.

Something I did from scratch. Icons are from dreamflye (or how ever its spelled). I was inspired by his dock, I liked it but it didn't fit what I was going for. So I did my own. I've been toying with releasing it.

Yeah dude...you should release it. If noone else uses it...I sure will!

PM me your contact info and your color preference and I will send it to you. I can't really send the icons yet because they are not my work, but I will be doing some of my own in the future (text icons are easy). I can maybe do a small request of icons if you let me know.
I am working on getting the some variations done before I release it (Tab on left, right, or center). I kind of want to release a bunch of variations so people can pick what they like. And I probably need to do some icons (at least the basics).
droid 2, epic 2.5, modified stock theme
Hey faceless, you wanna' post your dock icons? I like the extended right tab a lot (and I'm also too lazy to make my own unless I really have to )
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.

Hey guys, I found a nasty little bug that has made my epic unusable. Basically if you have all your home screen pages filled up and decide to create a shortcut of an app (in this case it was dolphin browser) from inside the app, Touch Wiz will crash no matter how many time you reboot the phone. All other programs work just fine, however touchwiz will without fail crash. I am trying to find a way around this without reflashing but it looks like that is my only option. Be warned everyone EB13 is not ready for prime time.
Edit: Found a quick work around, just install launcher pro from the market and hit the home button and switch your launcher to launcher pro. Now can anyone tell me how to switch back?
So why not use something other than tw? Why would you load up that many icons on 7 pages? Home Switcher from market...

I didnt I had 3 full pages. Also turns out even turning off touchwiz and switching back to it ruins it. Also not the appropriate place for this but isn't possible to add more homescreens to launcher pro. But thankyou for the advice.

Yes you can add screens to launcherpro by hitting (from launcherpro) menu>preferences>homescreen settngs. To fix touchwiz, hit menu>settings>applications>all, scroll down to TWlauncher cick it, and clear everything.

Sounds like a bug in Touchwiz, not Froyo.
Thank you XDA for helping me through what was pretty much me over reacting.
I would really urge you to play around with Launcher Pro for a while. Try the different settings and see what they all do. I can't imagine using Touchwiz now. I love the way launcherpro both looks and works.

Aug 31st... the first day I had my phone I moved to Launcher Pro and haven't looked back... not a single reason to use TW
Try hitting menu/settings/apps/manage apps/all.
Find twlauncher and clear data and cache. It will likely blow out anything you had on you screens but may allow you to use it again if that's what you are looking for.

TW is for folk who want their phone to feel more iOSish, and if that's what they want, meh. More power to 'em.
I used LP for a long time, but am giving Go Launcher a whirl these days. I kinda like it even more, but...
Ugh, Launcherpro has THE BEST agenda widget on Android. No free widget I've tried even comes close. Really frustrating.

Got my phone in august 31, moved to launcherpro sept 4, havent looked back either, its great, especially with the scrollable dock and all the customizations you can do!!
Meh - LP is pretty good but I suspect most people don't use most of the options, making it kind-of big. I haven't found a better option though. It's pretty darn good.
I use LauncherPro, and I have long since deleted both TouchWiz an the stock launcher from the /system/apps/ folder. It frees up a bit of space.

hi everyone!
Does anybody know an easy way to remove home screens?
I mostly use 2 screens... And would prefer not to have those 3 completly empty.
Anyway know how i can achive this?
I'm not certain, but I think you'd need to use an alternative launcher to be able to do that.
There are modded launcher2.apk with 3 screens. You cab install if your rooted.
I highly recommend ADW Launcher. I was hesitant to spend the $4+ but the speed-up of the home screens is simply amazing. You can delete or add screens as needed.
Another vote for ADWlauncher EX.
Is really great plus it has some nice animations.
Sorry, I ended up returning it to the store :x
But thanks for the help guys =)

nice idea, good luck with all that
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
