Hi,
Couple questions.
Does it make sense that my phone, and everything about it is a lot snappier/faster ever since I installed ADW.Launcher? Even if I use my phone, switch back to TouchWiz, I can notice a clear conference in response.
Also, my phone is rooted. Am I able to remove TW if I have another launcher in place? I've never talked liked TW.

Yes. it does make sense. TouchWiz has lots of add-ons which are running in the background.
I have tried ADW.Launcher and its fast, but LauncherPro is even faster. Give it a try, you will feel the difference.
I went from TW to ADW to launcherpro and launcherpro is definitely the most snappy
This may seem like a dumb question, but I'm fairly new to all this.
When people switch Home launchers and develop their own home screens, do they do it all on the phone using Desktop Visualizer?
Or is there a way to make up the design with icons, home screen and which services you want to run etc. Using your PC before copying it to your phone?
Thanks. Ill try out Launcher Pro.
As for three other question. Am I able to remove TouchWiz?

Let us know how you get on with Launcher because I'm also running ADW and it seems pretty good. I tried Launcher several months ago and thought it was good but didn't notice a speed difference when I installed ADW. I just like how ADW works but would give that up if Launcher was faster.
I noticed the exact opposite:
I switched from TW to Launcher Pro and now the phone feels alot slower and it takes ages to open the dialer or the contacts.
What am I doing wrong?

I installed Launcher Pro first and was using it for quite sometime now. I tried ADW eventually and wasn't impressed and didn't quite notice a faster response compared to Launcher Pro...
My personal opinion is .. Go for Launcher Pro and fix the Lag issues (if any) using the One Click Lag Fix (which can be found on the xda forums) and now my phone is really smooth

ABSOLUTELY! And if you like it, buy the Plus version NOW because its price will increase later on. It's got plenty of nice features and widgets!

Yes you can remove TouchWiz and set any other launcher app as default home.
For those that just want speed and few extra features look no further than zeam launcher. little slower is launcher pro with some caveats regarding full screen options and lately with more addons seems to be slowing down to adw level. Lastly adw while slowest of the three makes up with just sheer number of customizations options. love the double click gesture on zeam wish the others would copy it. Adw as daily driver for me though. Memory usage corresponds to the overall speed.

I agree with this post. When you install Launcher Pro, then look at the RAM being used, it's like both TW and launcher pro are both using memory at the same time so it was back to TW for me as it just ran better. However, at some stage I'm going to give a Custom Rom a go that you can remove TW altogether and then I'd say Launcher Pro should be awesome
As the topic says: Which launcher are you using? and why?
I'm using 2. Regina 3D and Android Seven pro. I would like to combined them somehow. I really like the start menu on Android Seven pro, but i like the 3D effect in Regina 3D, so i'm using them both from time to time.
How about you guys? It would be fun if you post some screenshots along with your post.

woaw.. that answer sucked. Please write some more, or don't write at all.
Launcher pro
I'm currently using SPB 3D Launcher, it's smooth, fast and looks great. Bit expensive though.
Was using GO Launcher, but after a few hours it gets really sluggish until I have to reboot the phone.
I've used Launcher Pro Plus which is really quick but really lacks features, and ADW EX which is really nice, but I prefer the way GO Launcher and Launcher Pro do the horizontal swipe shortcuts at the bottom of the screen.
I've given QQ Launcher a go too, seems to be very similar to GO Launcher, will be testing it a bit more to see if it suffers from the sluggishness of GO.
I liked the official launcher even before the update, since it is simple and stylish. The updated launcher solved most of my former gripes, so I'm happy using the stock R800i launcher.

OK
1 . what launcher are you using : go launcher
2. why : because i like it
I am using Go Launcher as well and I advise everyone to just try it. It's very smooth has one of the best app drawers. It's like a better version of Launcher Pro and it also has a lot of free widgets made for it.

how's the battery life on SPB 3D? I'm thinking of going with that one to. It's pretty badass looking

Clean.Customizable.Snappier.
and hey,I got the stock Gingerbread look on Rogers
I tried them all.I tried to like them all.ADW Launcher EX,GO Launcher EX,Regina 3D Launcher,Zeam Launcher,Nemus Launcher, and the Gingerbread Launcher ...
... but nothing tops LPP.
I am using Launcher 7.
I love the look and feel of the Windows 7 phones, but don't like what they offer beyond the surface.
As such, this Launcher is perfect for me.
It is very different to your standard launchers so it also provides a certain novelty value.
I find the interface clean, refreshing and easy to use.
However, it crashes a lot (better now though) and you can't really use widgets with it as it causes constant crashing, and slowing of the app draw.
I love it though.

Mine too. I now have go launcher with the new gingerbread theme as first and default launcher and launcher 7 ad second
I tried spb 3D but the RAM dropped from 240mb + to 170mb.
Launcher Pro Plus is my main one. I like it's snappiness, the skinnable widgets rock (ok I admit it I only use calender), customizable dock backgrounds are a snap to use, I LOVE the homescreen transition effects, I can't stand the bland side to side one anymore . Re sizable Widgets are needed for me for my homescreen style, basically for my different sized photos I got tacked on it. I love the configurable icon amount, I always use 5 icons wide on the homescreen.
I bought ADW EX and it was good, but a couple things bugged the crap out of me until I uninstalled it. Number one main reason is the shoddy ass all apps menu animation. I hate hate HATE how the homescreen widges/icons appear in the background when you close the app drawer, before actually 'flies' away. Launcher pro's just seems waaaay more polished. Other than that they are both pretty similar, with ADW being just a little more confusing to customize.
I tried Launcher 7, loved the simplicity and the good job they did, but ended up being too boring after while.
Switched to Launcher 7 again.
Spent an hour making icons,customized it a bit. Downloaded widgets,bought UberMusic.
Loving it!
I use go launcher EX because it's free, doesn't lag for me, doesn't drain the battery anymore than the stock launcher, has themes I like and is VERY customizable.
Sent from my R800
using modded stock launcher with 3 homescreens. don't want to really clutter up my launcher (so as is with my desktop in my lappy ) with unnecessary shortcuts of apps i don't even use. after all, stock apps were optimized by the company themselves to work with the phone properly..
Why do people need two launchers? All I hear is that such and such launcher lags,blah blah blah..but then you go and install two launchers? Reason?
I've used launcher pro plus most of the time for my HTC dhd and now for my play. Have tried most of the launcher on the market but always preferred lpp over any other launcher. It's the best launcher out there imo. At the moment I'm giving launcher 7 a go. Really nice and simple design that matches my look I'm going for. It's not as snappy as lpp, but no major lag nor freezes and it's responsive. You can even get battery % shown with it's build in status bar ;-)

I tried ADW and Launcher Pro, but found BOTH to crash and lag often. Mostly the lag.
I switched to Go Launcher/Widget/Keyboard/Facebook/Calendar/Task Manager and honestly its so blazing fast it's very impressive. But the thing I HATE about Go Launcher is for "custom" icons it won't let me use the buuf icon packs. Does ANYONE know any way I can buuf icons for go launcher?
Thanks a bunch
And speaking of icons in general, is it just me or are icons on this OS (gingerbread?) SO freaking small! My girlfriend has a Samsung Infuse 4G and I know the screen is technically aLOT larger but her OS (froyo?) has such nice big icons like iOS. Getting buuf icons would partially help this fact but its still annoying that the icons on this android phone are so freaking small.
So, I have the paid versions of Launcher Pro, ADW Ex, & SPB Shell 3D, and the Go Launcher is free.Dont always have all 4 installed, but it is super easy to swap between them, using the setting's backups.
I have seen many different comments about options, but for the most part, I know what I like about each, so I was looking for a bit of different advice/tips on the launchers
Is there any one that is better for battery life, or is that a non-issue due to how launchers work?
In the past, I saw a lot of stuff about LWPs killing your battery, but in testing on my Epic, at least for me, that was MOSTLY due to my sitting and watching the LWP to begin with. So I was wondering if different launchers cause different amounts of battery drain, when used in basically the same manner.
So, from the POV of those that write kernels and ROMs, is one more of a battery sipper than the others?
Or is the differences more all about performance, and any battery drain effect is just a non-issue?
Touchwiz is the best for speed and battery and second is the AOSP launcher. I heard Go Launcher jacks your data...

go launcher is really good for making folders. and it has a **** ton of themes. i always found it pretty good on battery, though not as good as a stock launcher or launcherpro. spb OWNS your battery. try out the MIUI Launcher..it should be pretty good and not too hard on the battery, and it looks awesome - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220695
I have always personally felt that Launcher Pro is the smoothest and easiest on the battery. Its different for every phone because...well... every phone is different in its own way. Some roms run better on certain epics, and im sure the same goes for launchers.

It was aimed at devs, but I welcome all non-troll answers
The reason I aimed it at devs, is I was interested in the sw aspects of battery interaction, much more than features of any launcher in specific. As such, I figured those that write new kernels would have a better knowledge of how the launcher interacts with the sw when it comes to battery use than the typical person who just tinkers (like myself)
I have noticed that SPB Shell chugs battery, but I think that may in large part be due to all the extra animations it runs as default
I normally config whatever launcher I use to where I don't have any icons or widgets on my desktop at all, and this seems to redue battery drain, but it may be imaginary, and not actual reduction in drain

You have a better head on than most people around here about stuff, so I have a little trouble dismissing this as the usual herpderp whenever an app asks for permissions, hah. -_-
Well, if you don't care about non devs answering, then LP is the best for battery. However, if Launcher7 is set up correctly, it can save battery too.

Or they are really busy with their lives and will do so when they get around to it, its not like it is any sort of massive priority. ROFL!
Anyways, you don't have to be a dev to answer, I just figured they were the best target audience to ask, given their work on the Epics kernels
But they certainly arnt the only ones in this world with knowledge

I like Launcherpro if only because of the scrollable shortcuts at the bottom and the sheer simplicity. I have also asked some ACS devs to answer and I'll update their answers as they come in.
Bogityshoe: sbd shell launcher
dreamsforgotten: Zeam ADW
Tiger: adw because he's a launcher because he loves it and is a launcher racist
ive had mixed results with different roms
like srf1.1 for me the best was adw ex but on srf1.2 it wouldnt work good at all so i used launcher pro
those are the only 2 i will use, but id say just try diff ones & see whats good for whatever rom your on

I normally install and try out ADW EX, LP, and GO launcher on each ROM I check out, but it seems to be more of a what you like than anything else
No matter how I have tried to track it, the only launcher I have seen actually do worse on the battery with the same setup otherwise, is SPB Shell 3D, though I do tend to almost never run the stock launcher, which I have seen reported as the best sipper of the battery
I am beginning to think that any battery drain difference between ADW Ex, LP, and GO L is negligible, but was looking for a wider review of the matter
Smoothness has never been an issue for me no matter the launcher, as I run empty desktops, no widgets, and only icons on the scrolling dock.
My preference would be ADW; highly customization, low fingerprint, low cpu and ram consumption. Plus its based off the stock AOSP Launcher which in theory should be a great a start.
I was introduce to ADW when the first custom rom came out for HTC G1 which most of us know is a grandfather android device. At that time it was the best and only alternative launcher and til this day I really have not found anything better.

I have always tended to bounce back and forth between ADW EX & LP
I have stuck with ADW EX recently because I currently like one of ADW Black theme icon packs
As the same pack is done in pink, I can make my Epic and my GF's Epic Touch look the same, except for mine is black and hers is pink
In desperate attempts for making this somehwat slow and laggy phone faster and bring it to life I have spent much time trying out different browser.
Most of the more popular launchers today are kind of customizable.
my main focus has been on opening app animations, and how fast apps are opening and if the animations are both FAST and Smooth with no stutter, this is where most launchers fail but where apex succeed, it seem to work very well with the weak gpu of M7. WIth Apex it has become a totally new phone my faster user experience and to switch between apps is a lot faster and the animations finally look good as they should, the animaions I use are Lollipop style animations.
I do not care much of lollipop anymore to be honest I have all what I need now a fast phone thanks to apex laucnher and also heads up notifications thanks to a google play app.. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=codes.simen.l50notifications&hl=en (I recommend using it with black color and kind of a lot of transparency) add c notice https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ccs.notice&hl=en for even better switching between apps and superior multi tasking
When you install the Apex Laucnher what you need to is to go the mange apps in settings then press the default app settings at the bottom to the left then after that set apex laucnher as default, this will mean that when you press the home button on your M7 you will not come back to Huawei laucher but you will come back to apex home screen.
Yes what can I say...I am really surprised that the launcher had so much impact. the biggest problem with the Mate 7 has been opening apps slow, and the animations apex laucnher fix this, and I have tried many laucnhers and Apex is the only one that also have fast animations when opening and switching between app. When it comes to animations in home screen and drawer most lancuhers are fast.. it is when you switch between apps and go back to home screen for instance the the differences are biggest.
Launchers I have tried before coming to this conclusion
APUS Launcher, Nova Launcher, 360 Launcher , go Launcher , action Launcher 3, CM Launcher , Buzz Launcher , Dodol Launcher, Hola Launcher ,
What settings did you use ?

I use no speciel setting besides keeping apex in memory.
.Other parts are more of the appearance. the animations I use I think is default (which is lollipop animation which means apps open from bottom and up)
Otherwise I prefer to use more folders in the home screen since the folders open very fast and does not take much space either when folders are expanded..I prefer that then using the drawer all the time.. I use black background with kind of high transpercy in folders and drawer.
The speed increase you get with default settings.. but there is a lot more settings that affect the appearance.. which is more about taste.

Yeah but compare aphex with nova especially after a few hours of heavy use, you see the nova animations will start to lag after a while, while in aphex they are always consistent. .. one reason might be aphex is not as function packed.. which means it is heavier on the Mate 7.
I use the 2 GB version.

The benifit is faster and more consistent animations, to my eyes is without question faster and more consistent over time.. Nova animations are not as smooth and does not work as fast and consistent on the M7 GPU that is my opinion.. It took me one week of trying all different launchers to realize the difference... my main eye was on how fast and smooth and consistent animations are..
My first thought when install aphex was that it more or less looked like a clone to Nova, but the main advantage seem to be better performance in Apex most likely cause it is more lightweight compared to nova.
Apex has the most well optimized Lollipop animations I have seen.. the animations are such important part of the phone..it have a really impact on the user experience since all you do all day with your phone is mostly switching app constantly..so it is important the it looks good and smooth and lagfree.. Apex is the only launcher that worked good for the Mate 7 2GB model.
Thank you.
I will try Apex when i have some time
Been on Apex for few days, generally liked it but there are better launchers in my opinion. CM launcher is to recommend, definitely brings speed back to Mate 7, it's got some useful tools as well(like antivirus, app protector etc, speed booster). However, if you're really looking for light launcher that is quick on mate 7 Xperia launcher is the choice. My phone is flying now(even on super laggy b312), i've been using Xperia z2 before and i loved it's launcher. It's minimalistic yet super functional, it's very light and clean looking, got great app drawer. There's few versions to download on xda forum( won't find it in play store), however older version seems to work better on Mate7 and has more launcher options and tweaks. Only with this launcher i can see 1 GB free RAM again on lollipop.

I personally prefer Action Launcher, as the 'covers' and 'shutters' are truly useful features that I couldn't do without after spending some time with them. Haven't really used Apex Launcher since the Galaxy S II, as I ran Nova. However, I wanted to try something new when I switched to the Ascend Mate 7, and haven't regretted the decision since. If you're not a fan of a vertically scrolling list of apps, it won't be your cup of tea. The aforementioned covers and shutters definitely merit a glance on the Play Store, though. 11/10 would recommend.
I managed to download xperia z3 launcher. As I've owned previously z ultra this is perfect launcher for me. Simple, elegant and mostly it works better than apex, nova or s launcher. Thanx for the tip.
Where. Can I download Xperia launcher?
Also why does not asus launcher turn up on Google play? When I search?
Asus launcher have very good reviews and their asus phones have very weak intel cpu and low memory despite that all reviewers are vet impressed with the speed and flow of the phone .... I hope asus launcher works with Mate 7

Is one of you know how to keep the "search module" of the Huawei launcher on Apex ? You Know when you solide down and it appears with icons of récent apps ! I really love this feature and i don't want to loose it !
I hope some one can link to the xperia launcher in question, however I am still questionable, the biggest is the difference in opening/switching app animations, if they are not fast and fluid then it means it is not a good optimized launcher, how fast it is in the home screen and drawers are not as important since almost every launcher is fast in this area...
what launcher you are using and why
I have used many launchers and it seems though some are smaller size wise most use up to the 123mb that TW uses (this includes unread plugins and such) even Trebuchet from CM is using from 99-122mb.
Just wondering if there is a gem hiding that I havent used

Nova prime is still the best, it's been regularly updated and has the best customizations. Every launcher is a memory hog, so you might as well choose the best lol

Been using Nova launcher for years now and have never regretted my decision, even after using alternatives like golauncher, apex, trebuchet, etc I would still find myself reinstalling nova. Another reason for my love for it is the constant updates and implementation of new animations each time a new Android version comes out, it is versatile and as surprised as I am to hear people point out is a memory hog this is one issue I have never experienced.
true would be nice though to have a truly light weight launcher.
Using Mihome launcher
Nova launcher, prime. Worth the donation, and the devs maintain it. I bought ADW a long time ago, but it's growing cobwebs.
Anybody use the sense 7 launcher and apps?
Nova
Nova, because of the ability to have a scrollable dock. I have 5 pages (25 icons) there, so I almost never need to use the app drawer.
I love the tsf 3d launcher and use it with the lines icon pack. Comes with its own weather widget which I love

I know that I'm inviting hate by saying it, but I'm using the Google Now Launcher on my Galaxy Note 4 N910T. Used Nova religiously my my GS3 and Note 2, then got a Nexus 5 on launch day and got hooked on Google Now. Haven't really tried anything since, though I might revisit the launcher scene if I'm looking to change things up.
I'm still on stock ROM, but using Nova Launcher. I think I misread the poll and voted stock. Sorry.
Nova or Apus launcher
no hate for the Google now laucher, if you use it as its meant it is pretty sweet and has good functionality. I myself tried out Windows launcher wasn't super impressed that's why I use android lol
