Download the beta 4 version of the latest launcher from the Go team which is called the 'Next launcher'. Looking at the features of the launcher i would say that its an amalgamation of the SPB shell 3D launcher and the TSF launcher. But the 3D look is awesome !
The file is attached below. install and check it out guys
It will work on Gingerbread and up.

I restored my Sense data and in place of my battery widget this popped up. I'm afraid to remove it because I think it's cool lol.
Hmm. I just replicated it with ADW by adding the power control widget and making it 1x1 in size. A little hard to use, though.

I have this as well i want to reflash but i dont want to lose it and that guy said he used ADW what and where is that I look in the market place there a 100's of apps saing ADW
This thread is ALL the way back from JULY lol how are you guys finding these posts
btw ADW launcher (see link HERE) is just that, a launcher. It's the launcher that comes standard with CM6. Which you can also download from the market.
anytime i search for adw or launcher pro, i always add "-theme"
that should get rid of MOST of the themes.
adw launcher -theme
launcher pro -theme
Looks pretty cool.
I go for Go Launcher EX
lacher ex has rly nice transition effects

Go Launcher Ex!
Launcher Pro is a bit faster from what i experienced but still Go Launcher offers the most, and most of all, for free. Go Dev Team got lots of awesome apps for Android.
I use:
Go Launcher Ex - HoneyComb theme + notification plugin
Go SMS Pro - with Emojicon plugin

I have the same setup (minus the honeycomb theme), I used the wizmod theme
I prefer go launcher ex to launcher pro mainly because these two very similar in features and it's free.
Go launcher also has its own widgets, similar to launcher pro
can someone say what "launchers" really are?? I dont know anyting about them..
pretty much the user interface of your home screens and app drawer. look at images on for launcher pro and go launcher on the market, you'll see the differences.
As for my choice, definitely going with go launcher. I think the ONLY thing I miss about launcher pro was having the sense widgets, and being able to edit the dock bar which I''m surprised hasn't been done in go launcher yet
Go Launcher Ex uses more Ram, but it has an integrated taskmanager and some other nice features. I prefere it.
I remember i read somewhere that if you clear the launchers default it will ask you if you want to launch holo or the manufacturers overlay of android when you go home. Can i do that to my tab with ics?
Just the launcher? That doesn't work on every device, In fact, I think the only device that ever did it was the EVO 4G, mainly because HTC left the other launcher in there, which is uncommon. You can always install Trebuchet (not on Google Play), Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher. The three are based on the original 4.0 launcher. My personal favorite it Apex, it's the smoothest of them all and it feels like you're still using vanilla.
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.

Hi. Everytime I try to use the Xperia keyboard, it keeps on crashing. I don't know if the problem is my phone or your post. My phone is Huawei Ideos X5. Are you using the keyboard for the same device? Thanks.
Yes, I used this keyboard with u8800 for some time with no problems. There Is also an updated version that I use right now, which is even better.. Search for [Jan 24/13] Xperia T/s keyboard for all [swipe] here in xda.

Earlier, as you might know, Nova was the undisputed king of launchers having hell lot of the customizations along with the fluidity. But recently, Apex Launcher and Action Launcher has also caught upto it, if not crossed over; and there has been new entries in the game.
So following will be my top picks :
1. Nova Launcher (FREE | PRIME)
2. Apex Launcher (FREE | PRO)
3. Action Launcher (FREE)
4. Pixel Launcher by Google, (Android O) (PS | APKmirror)
5. LawnChair, your open source light-weighted launcher. This is the one I've been using from some time now. (gitHub releases | XDA thread)
Other worthy options
6. Google Now Launcher (FREE)
7. Evie Launcher (FREE)
8. Arrow Launcher by Microsoft FREE)
9. Z Launcher by Nokia (FREE)
Well there are a tons of them but these were my top picks. For fluidity and best user experience you should definitely go with Nova. LawnChair, I've been using, is also very good and comes for no cost. Nova can be customised and made to give you any kind of look with all those icon packs and customisations. But you don't want to do the hard work yourselves, Arrow Launcher is pretty good for UI. Z is good looking but isn't stable and hasn't been updated in ages. Apart from these there are like the Apus or Go or CM, which I would say are basically adwares; atleast that's what I like to think. Also there are these iOS and Mi like launchers which doesn't fetaure any application drawer and I find them very messy to manage. It takes so much time just to search for the app you want.
So now its totally upto you what you want to go with. My best wishes to you.
EDIT - One thing I forgot to mention is about Google Cards. Google Cards first came for the Pixels and later Nexus', which are basically google gathering all the relevant info from your google searches and on-screen activity on your phone and then displaying the relevant information. Its very useful and gives you continuous alerts about the traffic congestion or the weather and news updates relevant to you, or if their is a meeting coming up, or it's someone's birthday. So what I'm trying to say is, its pretty useful. Earlier you needed root permissions for this to use on other devices, but some time ago Nova and, I think, Action too has included this feature without root, so you can just swipe from left edge of your home screen to see your google cards. So that's definitely was a point worth mentioning. I don't know if any other launcher does provide this functionality. Hell even Google's Pixel Launcher doesn't (Google now too, ofcourse). But, then again, there's LawnChair too. Now, I remember why I'm hooked up to it from the last two months ;-B
Well, thanks @sasukay. I'm using Nova (prime) right now and it's great!
