Another big +1, for Go Launcher. I tried all of them and really liked Launcher Pro until I tried Go. I love the folders and app screen. App screen is also much faster loading than Launcher Pro. The only thing I didn't like initially was a bug with the scrolling dock bar when in landscape mode (using desktop dock) but that was fixed in the most recent update. I can't believe Go hasn't gotten more visibility in the forums as IMO it's now much better than LP or ADW.

Go launcher ex is my favorite. Tried the rest, came back to this one. u simply can't beat folders in app drawer. U don't have to use other app organizer programs that take up additional resources..

the new honeycomb theme for go also looks sexy
[Epic 4G General] BigBrotherMotown:
Mixed bag

I currently have 5 different launchers on my phone:

(Stock)

Touch Wiz

Standard Android

(Other)

Launcher Pro

Launcher 7

Regina Launcher

Launcher pro is my daily driver...simply because its the most stable and easy to use, but I like them all for different reasons. I really like the Regina Launcher but it still has some issues. Once they iron some things out it will probably be the one I use.

I have yet to try ADW and GO....maybe I will today...

****UPDATE****

Just downloaded GO LAUNCHER EX and in five minutes flat it has blown Launcher Pro OUT OF THE WATER.....LMAO!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G General] fookxixi:
Go Laucher EX +1 !!!

It has the same app drawer mod and theme to the MIUI, plus its own contacts and task manager widget.

No way you wanna go back to Launcher Pro paid.
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:
You guys really need to try Go Launcher along with the app called Folder Organizer (its made by the same guy that does Launcher Pro). Go Launcher has folders as well but Folder Organizer does it much better. I have one folder in my dock that contains four other folders: Utilities, Games, Media, and Tools. The skins are totally customizable as well. My phone is themed b&w so currently my folders are skinned with a black/gray gradient with a red border and white text in the title bar.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
I'm shocked to see all the Go Launchers.

I liked the features in it but the themes are terrible, and I'm a huge theme guy.

LauncherPro for meh :)
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
I've tried them all launcher pro was my favorite for a while. Then I moved to adw and stuck with that for a while. Then went to go launcher which I loved the most out of the 3 but tthere were too many bugs for my liking so I had to ditch it.. I've tried pretty much all of them like zeam, regina, claystone android 7. You name it.. I feel like go launcher is the best but launcher pro is the most stable. That being said.. I started using launcher 7 donate and never looked back. Its so fluid and fast.. to me this is the best launcher out right now.

Tapatalkin' it from my Epic 3g
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
I like twcrushdlauncher, and go launcher is close behind..
[Epic 4G General] smooney3:
I'm using ADW EX, mostly because I purchased it. GO and LauncherPro are good, though. SPB was fun for a good five minutes, lol. I also like TW, but it's a bit on the ugly side, so I had to ditch it.
[Epic 4G General] southparkeric:
i like spb mobile shell 3d! that to me is so worth the $15
[Epic 4G General] FrankyFiggz27:
Go Launcher is the ****, but I agree. This is what turned me away originally, too. But then I found the Honeycomb theme, which is pretty bad ass. As long as you theme your ROM, the lack of themes available for the launcher won't matter too much.

Also, I tried every launcher, and Go is the

lightest weight

, especially for all its features. I did pretty thorough comparisons too, letting each run for about the same time and monitoring the CPU usage of each at rest, while busy, etc. Go Launcher KILLED, and that was about 2 months ago.

I could care less about LauncherPro's widgets honestly. All they do is eat battery. ADW EX was nice, but ate more battery and wasn't as fast as Go. I used ADW for a while before fully switching over to Go, and now I am ALL Go. Go SMS Pro is better/lighter weight than Handcent, just like Go Launcher. The folders are amazing, especialy how u can put shortcuts to the folders in ur app drawer on the home screens. Sick feature.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
It bugs me that it doesn't fill up my whole screen.
[Epic 4G General] s84471:
I like LauncherPro+ more, but I use ADW EX because it's faster (for me).
[Epic 4G General] SwimDrewid:

Btw, Deodexed? Zipaligned? Optimized?...not being pushy I know it's brand new......just curious :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ryyuu:
Is it really TW4?

Does it have Game Hub, Media Hub, etc?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saabster900:
looks very impressive.....and I am eager to try the TW4 it seems no one is really trying to make it work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saabster900:
I'm assuming CWM3 to install or do I go the Supercurio route? Do i need to install base ROM JVB?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] markywylder:
I just did my g/f's phone, came from Froyo (Doc 9.5) --> Wiped --> JVB From Samfirmware.com (Odin) --> CF Kernel (Odin) --> Coldmod from recovery.

Working Perfectly :)

Nice Start

Exited & Downloading now, Seems like it will take 4+ hours for the file to get downloaded :(.

Place of main interest - TW 4.0 (Kinda bored with all other launchers:o:o:o)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] <<Raj$>>:
It would be great if you post a brief information/guide about flashing...

Can I just flash from CWM From any ROM (I am in Darky's 10 RC5.3) or should I go back to JVK/JVB and flash ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saabster900:
thanks......I will def give this a go. I just wanted to make sure about the steps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] issxd02:
AWESOME very AWESOME man you've done it again. fantastic. smooth, fast. one question tho, are there any themes that work for this rom????:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jobiza:
I'm afraid not, since touchwiz connects with framework, you would get bootloop. Unless theme says it's compatible with the tw4
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [[ Cold ]]:
yeah, tw 4 still in "diapers", i think you can use UOT kitchen to do some mods to the style though

im updating info as soon as i can ;)

CWM3 compatible !! you need to be using JVB, JVK or another GB custom rom... or flash the starter package listed in the first post

hope you are enjoying this one !

That would do as well! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ryyuu:

Hi,

I have the Simply Honey 3.0 RC3 and if I want to flash your rom what I need to do?

Did all work well, the GPS, WIFI, BLUETOOTH...

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ryyuu:
Seeing as you are already on Gingerbread bootloaders you can copy v2.0 and v2.1 to your SD card.

Reboot into CWM > FACTORY RESET > Flash v2.0 > boot up make sure all is ok > reboot into CWM > flash 2.1.

All works fine. GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth all work. no issues with these at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Prasad:
Ficeto JVB base worked well... all issues resolved. Thanks guys! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lirona:
Thank you for your quick reply.

Have a good day!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ryyuu:
no worries.

Any issues let us know.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
Download stock Jvb and replace tones in system/media/audio
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimpsar:
It looks very nice and finally everything works for me now.

However it seems kinda slower than simple honey and a bit slaggish..

I know that quadrant doesnt represent the speed of the rom but i get only

923 points.

Do I have to put fugutweaks also to speed things up?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sxi200:

Silly question: Is my phone rooted? Busybox sais it's not!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zerodi:
Boot to recovery and Use CWM and select Backup/restore and create a backup of your current rom - if your on a gingerbread rom i think that would work to restore if anything went wrong.........
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ktuluz:
Thanks COLD,

one of the best ROMs i've used, I am seeing a few issues with Lag/Screen freezing with TW4, just did a format/clean install and seems better, will post if i see any more issues. i think the lag/screen issues may have been something to do with a widget i had.. Juice defender didn't want to play nice with TW4. seems ok after clean install tho.

One tip for others... i had issues flashing 2.0 in CWM 3+ , flash hacked JVB voodoo jvb from source.tar (2.5 CWM) and then install , this will flash the kernel right.

I installed 2.0 + 2.1 in voodoo hacked JVB from sources at same time , seems stable and lag free at the moment.

Again very polished rom with just the right amount of eye candy, thanks!

EDIT: After restoring some apps with TB, i am seeing 5-15sec TW4 freezes, very odd.. cant pin down what would be problem. unless TW4 just needs too much CPU ? ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zerodi:
my kernel says - 2.6.35.7-i9000XWJVB- etc etc etc r@faramir #171

is that the FugelMod kernel ?

I think the TW4 launcher just needs a bit more optimising and it would be perfect i really like it but my home screen scrolling seems just a tad jerky, just a tad but its noticable....

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] McKriss:
I've been using 2.0 since yesterday with hardly any bugs, however since flashing 2.1, even after wiping dalvik the phone will reboot after approximately a minute, or after me trying to open the app drawer, whatever of these two comes first. I just did a full wipe (data, dalvik, battery) and flashing currently, so I'll be back with more results. Despite all this, I can honestly say this is the best SGS rom IMO, so thanks! ;)

UPDATE: After the wipe no more reboots, waiting on 2.2 ...

something wierd though, i have 2 of the same ringtone or notification tone, like all of the tones is doubled
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joeonxda:
That's what i got too.

On top of that the power widget needs a reboot for it to work every time you add it.

Last but not not least the android process hits 10-20% CPU usage during charge (wall and PC USB).

Other than that this is a great rom. Never thought I am using a jvb so long.

Keep up the good work.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xandas:
just a doubt

My former rom was official beta xxjvk 2.3.3, rooted. Used gingerbread starter via odin. Then flashed Coldmod IMp v 2.0, and then the improvement 2.1. Working flawlesly, except for the fact that i cannot put a shortcut on the panel, quickboot, it says the phone isn't rooted, when in fact it is and have titanium backup installed, superuser, etc. Once i execute it the following shows up: no root access: you must have root access..click override to... and the the options show up. This issue seems to happen only with that app. Otherwise it is a good rom... keep the fire up!! BTW.. is it a deodexed rom?

One thing: Is is possible to have grid view for the app drawer and have the apps automatically order themselves in alphabetical order?

Because the apps are all over the place and I have pages with 1/2 a page of apps, then the next page has a full page of apps and they're not in alphabetical order.

Is it possible? Am I missing some option somewhere?

sometimes, when I wake phone from standby the screen freezes and I need to pull the battery out.
