I am trying to settle on a launcher to use with CM7. So far this is what I see.
ADW is nice but a bit laggy at times.
Zeam super fast but I cannot see how to change icons for apps.
Gingerbread launcher, can't customize the launcher or number of screens. 5 is default but I only need 3.
Thanks,
RA

Just tried Launcher Pro... pretty nice and VERY customizable. I am going to give it a few days and see if it can become my standard. Thanks for the tip. I saw a lot of people using it but REALLY wanted Zeam to work. Oh well, Android certainly does give plenty of choices.

Personally i am HUGE fan of AWDLauncher EX. I've used Zeam, LP and AWDEX and out of the three i like EX the best. Way more options than Launcher pro.

I really liked AWD but like I stated it was a bit laggy at times. I am finding launcher pro VERY smooth and also pretty configurable.

Thanks for the props. ADW is complete different than EX when it comes to speed.

Launcher pro and go launcher ex. They are the best. I switch between them frequntly because I love them so much I can't get enough of either one. Try out go launcher ex. You will be surprised.

No problems mate but to be honest why launcherpro beats adw its because launcherpro is very simple basic made not like adw too much useless tweaks if you want to try out spb mobile shell leave me a pm ill send you a vid that does a demo of the home launcher and step by step how to install the launcher

I lime adw ex. I have tried launcher pro(paid version) and it didn't seem as polished as adw. The transitions are far superior than in lp. They are smoother. I keep coming back to adw

I am using launcher pro and it works great. I love the facebook widget a lot.
Launcherpro paid version offers very smooth and sexy widgets that adw doesnt + you can resize any widget easily and as desired
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Imho, adw has become too bloated with customizations and tweaks. Too many choices makes a headache for me. Launcher pro is a bit smoother, just as tweakable without as many settings, a bit more straight forward, and has nice htc-like widgets. I like the sliding dock with custom dock skins too compared to the pop-up dock bar in adw.

I rocked launcher pro for a while but wana give adw a chance .....u know change things up ........but launcher pro IMO is prob better .......

You can resize stuff with AWD.
And for one who doesn't use Facebook nor twitter launcher pro calendar widget is rather plain looking

+1 for launcher pro. been using it for over a year now on all my devices. it does lag on the nook color.
I start here a Poll for the Thread "Best Launcher for P500", if needed it can be merged with the original Thread.
I try to get all Launchers into the Poll i know of.
And after many Votes it may be be then a good help for new Users too.
I switch between Launcher Pro Plus and ADW Ex, and i have SPB 3D too but its somehow limited in my Eyes.

U forgot to add another.. SE Active Launcher...
And forgot also Panda Home / Panda Home 2.
Voted for LP+ and GO Launcher EX..
Edit: Add HelixLauncher, too.
You forgot to add one more: Gingerbread laucher. It is not much functional but some people (like me) like the stock Android look.
Voted for Launcher Pro and Launcher Pro Plus.
I voted for zeamlauncher. It works great, is fast and smooth
adw launcher / adw launcher ex for me

Am I the only one that cant seem to get go launcher running as smoothly as launcher pro plus? I really want to use it as a daily launcher but it just doesnt seem to as fluid :|

Works fine for me! Best launcher, most configurable.
Any screenshots of this 3D drawer?
I never have any issues with launchers but go launcher has never been fluid for me. This goes back to my samsung vibrant and the homescreens switch smooth but menu is choppy. I still use it everyday though lol.

I have tried most launchers, Go launcher Ex is the best in my opinion. I actually thought that touchwiz was based on it.
I think all laucher always decrease battery life!
So where's the download? Or is it inside the new GO launcher beta?
Honestly, I tried go launcher and it seemed good till all my widgets were in place. Launcherpro and adw ex are the only two that can handle my setup and remain completely smooth in performance. Eventually I found adw ex to be the better of the two, though it redraws more often than launcherpro did.

Used adw ex pro for long enough, then switched to launcher pro, i know the insides and outs of both, on go launcher now and not going back
Too slow for me. LPP or ADW are smoothest.
Go has improved significantly, but for my setup the widgets of launcher pro swings it for me.

Go Launcher EX 3D drawer is clearly faster than ADW EX 3D (transparent). LP still does not have transparent 3D drawer so cannot argue, but I'm sure it would be fastest. It's simply way smoother than any other launcher when it comes to extra desktop transitions and 3D drawer.
ADW EX would be my favorite launcher, but it constantly suffers from tiny lag when you have seven homescreens and stuff on most of them. It's not bad, but it always comes up enough to not feel super smooth.

1. Wrong section. (Themes/Apps)

Is there a home replacement that changes screens something barrel it's a tweak I have in my Jailbroken ipod. I only used Adw Ex and they have some nice screen transitions but I really would like 1 like this 1 here is a quick video I did http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4G3Glr7N9I&context=C20041ADOEgsToPDskL31SraD6vwN-6Zx0xfxmga

I been seeing a lot of people talking about Launcher pro I am waiting for Miui to get updated then I'll be going back. I will have to give it Laucher pro a try 1 more question does this Launcher have the swipe up and down gestured like Adw
I use launcher pro plus and nothing else it is the best
I decided to give go launcher a try I like a couple of there themes and they have some nice screen transitions even 1 for going into the App drawer plus it's free

Hello friends, one thread on other forum inspired me and i haven't seen anything like this here So, which launcher is best for willy in your opinion?? I'll start
LauncherPro Plus- although it is not developed anymore, it's still fastest one for me
ADW Launcher Ex - after big update in October if I remember well it is also one from fastest launchers for wildfire

Launcher Pro is best.
But older ADW Launcher EX is amazing too, sooo fast + amazing customizeable.
I use ADW 1.3.3.56
ADW 1.3.3.8 (newest) starts to lag a lil.
Oh, 2am here, time to sleep for sk00l

Hello, maybe head on to second post in my signature and download windows launcher 8. I think it has tiles enabled.:thumbup:
For me - ADW Launcher EX - it's the best options that I use and check on my device ;]

i thought about win8 launcher but it is slower than launcher 7 in my case ): maybe if i will put animations instead of pictures as tiles it would work. for now no time so i can't test it ):

Gonna try ADW now, had the default launcher running till now
Try Holo launcher, its pretty cool on wildfire
for me holo was little bit laggy ): better download launcher pro or adw and ics icon pack and it will look like like ics a little bit. anyway if u want ics style the best way is to download ics rom

ADW
ADW because of swipe gestures and also catalog navigations I just group icons i use and keeping them there intead of desktop you can find few cool themes too...
I backed again to launcher 7 tiles are great :3
