TO CHEFS: Launcher Suggestion for your ROMs

To all the Chefs out there that are cooking up these delicious ROMs we are so blessed with everyday. We know that most of you use LauncherPro for your ROMs. Last month I was using a launcher called GO Launcher. It is free, includes options that only the paid LauncherPro Plus includes. It is stable and has a very active dev team that is really passionate about perfecting their launcher. Just a suggestion. Check it out and see if it something you prefer. Think it would be neat to see it in some ROMs.

Go launcher is old news but its a good advice however this is the wrong section this needs to.go in general

Too many add onns too much memory and space. My view is no. good program way to big and resource hog. Go sms is huge resource hog

Go launcher isnt old news cause it's one of the newest out there LOL It's smoother, faster and better than Launcher Pro and best of all it's free! With Go SMS and Go contacts and themes that match all 3 you cant go wrong with Go

I like go sms, but not go launcher. I prefer adw launcher. I like the hidden dock bar.

What? I didn't know ADW has a hidden dock bar. Is that ADW EX or the free one?

Just cause you like go launcher it don't mean we do. If you don't like launcher pro install go launcher from the market.

i think it was the urban fury or the nova roms that were using go launcher for some time, and honestly, kinda slow. rob's midnight is super fast with launcher pro as well as ACS's roms with launcher pro.

Why don't u make your own Tom using go launcher? Then u don't have to worry if it has launcher pro. I don't understand why u are even complaining. Its not hard to dl go launcher from the market.

Maybe a little too harsh..
I mean he did thank the devs, but then again he's kinda being selfish reason being stated in quote...

Relax
He is simply suggesting and commenting on a launcher he thinks is suitable. He is not in any way telling Devs. what to include in the Roms. Some of you take this a bit too serious.

Go Launcher is meh, but Zeam is great for ROMS. I did switched to ADW after I learned it too had a hidden dockbar like Zeam.

And just as a side note, Go launcher also includes a hidden dockbar. I would be intersted, however, to learn the memory/battery impact of the different launchers. I would imagine that the more options it has the more resources it uses.

I just checked out Zeam and I didn't see a hidden dock bar. If it had it, that would be perfect. It is definitely nice and lightweight.

Zeam is great! I have been using it for months now. Its light and never has failed on me.

Is your friend on on stock? if not what rom is he running? Is everything disappearing from his home screens? (shortcuts and widgets) What launcher is he using?

This was a known problem... it's one of the installed apps that makes the homescreen blank out. I'm sorry I don't have any more details because this happened to me ages ago lol.

air command
Sorry for the noob question, I'm waiting to get my note 3. The air command from the stylus is not launcher related right? If i change launcher they are still there?
Thanks!

Which launcher are you using? Maybe it could be a randomly occurring bug in the Note 3.

It's not nova that does the transparency it is the G2 xposed mods. It does a ton of customizations. Check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528304 it works with a lot of launchers not just nova. (I have only tried the Google experience one and nova)

I was just going to post how did you get your notification bar too look like that. I realized that the lg one should still be intact even if you change the launcher. Good Job hopefully we can get some of that soon.

Same answer as above http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48129802&postcount=11 it is apart of the G2 Xposed mod. That thing is awesome! You can also add different items to the navigation bar. I added recent apps

I have never rooted a device before I don't trust myself to do it correctly
