there are too many home screen .......... on my defy+ red lens its 7
i use only 3
how to delete rest of the 4 home screens
tried many times .... everything.
If you are using Motorola's stock launcher, You can't edit the screens.
Best option.. Install another launcher.

which one you rate as the best ..??
There's no "best" launcher. Pick one that suits your needs. I, for example, used ADW EX when I was on CM7.

It depends on you..
I've used adw EX and Go Launcher EX.. both are good and have customization options

I have also used many launchers till date however, I find ADW ex which is included in CM7.2 to be my default because if its simplicity.
And for CM9 I use the default trebulant

Default launcher included in CM7 is ADW , not ADW EX ... there's a difference..
Doesn't matter from where I send it, what matters is written above

Thanks for pointing it out
Here are the differences:
Differences between ADW.Launcher and ADWLauncher EX
ADWLauncher EX is based on the ADW.Launcher opensource core with a lot of new additions and improvements, like for example:
-5 different app drawer styles/behaviors
---3D Nexus One like application drawer
---2 different plain vertical drawer styles, the "old one" and a new fast and smooth one
---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!!

Does anyone know how I can stop wallpaper scrolling? I wanna just have the full wallpaper inplace withought scrolling?
I think that's an option in ADW Launcher. I know its an option in ADW Launcher EX.
you can't do it unless you get a different laucher, launcherpro can do it too in the options

I do have launcher pro, but all yet it only freezes the wallpaper and not all off it shows?
You'll need to crop the image yourself, most launchers dont have robust options when it comes to editting. Just make the image the same resolution as your screen.

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong area.
I am looking for a launcher that just displays a list of all the applications installed on the NC. I have tried all the usual suspects (LauncherPro, ADW, Zeam, Go Launcher etc) but they all go the desktop first and then you need to open the app drawer to access the shortcuts. I could add shortcuts to the desktop but it does not seem to be a good use of time when the shortcuts to all apps are already there.
It would be nice if the launcher had a dock of favorite apps but not necessary. It would be even nicer if press the Home (N) button in the launcher displayed a list of running programs.
In summary, the launcher should work like the Home screen on iOS.
Any suggestions? Be nice now ;-)
Thanks
Have you tried the MIUI roms yet? They are basically designed to look like the iPhone design. If your just wanting a different home replacement then I always liked the Zeam Launcher because you could add like 4-5 shortcuts to the dock bar...hopefully this helps..
Sent from my HTC Pyramid using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the suggestion
I don't really want to try a non-standard ROM at the moment. I did try some of the MIUI themes for ADW and other launchers but all the themes really do is change the icons. That is, the functionality of the launcher does not change. The default screen for the launcher is the desktop and you have to add shortcuts to the desktop.
I might try loading a MIUI ROM on a bootable SD card and see how that works.
Thanks again

I haven't tried it...possibly get a key remapper. I think one of the launchers has one for the home key...see if this will work...
Is it just me or does touchwiz have better screen responsiveness than go launcher/other launchers?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Touchwizz is much snappier / more lagfree then GoLauncher. It's even faster underclocked to 800 MHz then stock 1,2 GHz with GoLauncher.

I second this
Go launcher is laggy. Launcher Pro on the other hand is as fast as touchwiz
Go Launcher was laggy on my first installation but snappy on my second installation. I don't know what changed between the two but it was as quick as LP
I noticed this when I tried GO launcher, almost as if when you swipe between screens there is an ever so slight delay, which is not major, can get a little annoying.
TW is slick and super fast compared

The one on the desktop is minimalist text (for when i swipe the notification bar off).
The one on the notification bar I added using the kitchen app from the market which is for use with the Revolution Rom.
In the kitchen app you just chose a theme/feature, click ok, it downloads, installs and reboots, plus it has many other features in the app like BLN and EDT, kernel change, boot ani change, battery sound on/off, slide glow on/off etc. etc. etc. and kitchen is always being updated.
A great rom and the kitchen app sets it apart
That's my sales pitch over Leo

Go launcher Ex 2.53 beta 3 now available here
http://golauncher.goforandroid.com/...edium=rss&utm_campaign=go-launcher-v2-53-beta
So why do you prefer the Go launcher over TW?
Things I found I didn't like with GO, the calendar widget on TW especially the month view one I prefer, also mini paper although it works with GO, when you click the plus to add another widget note, it opens TW to tries and add it to one of those screens instead of the Go screen, I use mini paper a lot, best postit note type widget that actually works from the home screens quickly.

I use the memo thing that came with TW the one with the cork background it is really nice.
One of the other nice things about Go ex is that the dock keys can be swiped to give second user defined function, eg open file manager, plus they can be drag and dropped replaced!
Also customisation, icons can be renamed and/or swapped with other icons from other download themes.
I have used both adw ex and LP plus for quite some time, but I really can't see me changing. Even the Go keyboard shocked me with how good it looks and how fast it is, and it has (at a swipe) a T9 keyboard or an arrows keyboard... (iphone theme keys

TW4.0 is mostly HW accelerated, it runs smoother and consumes less cpu cycles compared to other launchers.
Hmm it seems Launcher Pro is just as responsive as touchwiz. Is there any way to change dock icons for touchwiz? Also is it possible to set the app drawer icon in the middle as opposed to on the right side?
So I updated to 2.3 gingerbread and the Huawei UI thing is just horrible. I would much rather have the stock 2.3 android one.
I tried different themes, but most only change things like lock screen and main dock. But not most menus, the dialer etc.
Is there any way to change those? My dream choice would be an awesome Ice Cream Sandwich theme, but the complete sets seem to be only for CM7 roms.
Edit: I was looking around and it seems like my best option is to get Oxygen and this theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363518 ?
Can I change to Oxygen without formatting everything?
download from market
1. A dialer
2. A launcher
3. A lockscreen
I have a ICS lockscreen and theme for launcher. Basically..
In ICS theme:
* lockscreen
* desktop
* app drawer
Not in ICS theme:
* status bar
* notification window
* dialer
* menus
* volume control
I can't change them all anyway with just apps I think. For example the notification area.
I attached 2 files. 1 is my notifications, the other is a Oxygen. theme by skifyr123
Psst:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423920
I'm a little bit afraid of it as people seem to be having problems.
Why not install CM7/MIUI/Oxygen then?
Well, are there any solid non-buggy versions? I have found themes for both Oxygen and CM7, but there is no official port for CM7 and all of the unoffical ones seem to be having some problems. Same goes for Oxygen which seems to be having problems with the 720p video camera.
Adw launcher ex, launcher pro or go launcher maby? + you can add theme to make all launchers look different I myself prefer adw launcher.

None of them so far have updated the menus themselves. Only dock, app drawer and lock screen basically.

You could try this one.
The theme is great and removes everything that is horrible in the 2.3.5 theme, but do one backup before you try it
Sent from my U8800 using xda premium
When I upgraded to Gingerbread I dropped down to the basic android Gb UI which I liked better than the horrible "beyond the sky" add on they pre installed.
I did this by hitting the menu key then Home Settings, then change theme.
BTW anyone know how to removed the "Beyond the Sky" theme?
If you like to have an alternative to APEX Launcher, I recommend this one:
Features summary:
- User selectable number of home screens (up to 11) and default screen selection
- Customizable desktop and app drawer grid size (from 3 x 3 to 9 x 9)
- Infinite scrolling on the desktop and the app drawer (significantly improved from previous (GB) version)
- Resizable widgets
- Hide apps from the app drawer (now does not hide them from the desktop and the dock)
- Swipe Up / Down gestures on the desktop
- Show / hide icon labels on the desktop, the dock and the app drawer
- Enable / disable app sharing on social networks
- Enable / disable tactile feedback (vibration)
- Icon packs support (load icons from: Launcher Pro, ADW Launcher and GO Launcher themes / icon packs)
- Backup and restore launcher settings
- Support for any resolution and any display density (custom DPI)
- Others

Have you tested?
This launcher has a lot of problems (at least with our device).
Don't have settings, application drawer don't show all application (if you sort in alphabetic sort). I don't now what the problem is but the launcher of the OP is far away better!

There's a lot of negative feedback in the thread.
Better than this is the z Launcher by ra3al, the same user that developed the version that I posted here.
Dispite z Launcher been newest, the version 1.3.4 from xperia T has more functionalities at the moment.
