Oops meant to press quote, but you could try using the stock HC launcher. I like that the best out of all the ones I've tried
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I basically have 3 issues with it #1 wasted screen real estate, #2 no folder support, and and #3, can't delete unused home screens
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] devator22:
I think he meant the stock honeycomb launcher, not the stock htc launcher. The stock honeycomb launcher does not have wasted space, the other two I'm not sure about.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Ah yeah I saw a "t" in there that wasn't there lol. Yeah I saw the team syndicate one and I tried it out, only problem is it was kinda designed for gb and froyo so it has a virtual notification bar that can't be disabled... However that was the free version it might be able to be disabled on the paid I dunno. Anywhere on XDA I could just grab the apk for the actual stock launcher and install it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] matthieup:
i use go launcher ex which is free and ok if well configured.

the go team is also working on a hd version for tablet which is in beta atm... watch out for it
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
It's in my ROM. If you don't want to download the whole thing for the launcher i could just link it to you :p
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah I might eventually go custom rom, I've had plenty of experience with my captivate :), but for now I think I'm just going to stay stock for the time being with the flyer, so if you want to link it thats cool. Thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Wow I guess golauncher hd beta for tablets dropped out today, i'm not sure if it's on the market but I downloaded it and it works. It looks promising
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Hmm well let me know if you still want me to upload it, I was busy today lol
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
GO Launcher EX is good. Has lots of features that most Launchers don't

But I always miss the glorious sense widgets that you cannot get any where else.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Honestly I've warmed up to the sense launcher a bit. Its basic and bare but the cool animations and awesome sense widgets make it worth using. As far as real estate, Go launcher HD had the issue too, just seems to be a honeycomb thing so whatever really. Think I'll just stick with Sense for now!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] killerskincanoe:
yea go launcher HD (beta) is a nice alternative to the stock or htc launchers for sure. just started using it today and really like the folder support

it's not on the market u'll have to search around for it
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah I found it from a google search, had a download link,and thats how I got it
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Yeah I tried Go Launcher HD and it certainly a beta. Need lots of work.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
the stock launcher is pretty bland, I would highly recommend Go Launcher EX or ADW over that if you want a different launcher.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Or GO launcher HD which is made for tablets :D

I use this one, it doesn't run sense widgets, but runs great and looks awesome. I even put it on my phone.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Go Launcher HD is a beta and not really working very well yet.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Hey gumby, downloaded your stock launcher, and it won't install. Says "application not installed " and has a red x. Something im doing wrong?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Try placing it in /system/app and rebooting
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Can you do that if you're not rooted?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Nope you have to be rooted :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Bummer. Ah well I'm thinking soon i might revert to gingerbread and root
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] indiziert:
Thanks for the replies, :beer:

ADW is a no go for me, not for the flyer HC. :) (i use it on the out of model and almost obsolete android phone running gingerbread :D )

GO launcher HD, has a nice feat, which you can create folder in apps menu.

Apart from it, i still stick with HC stock launcher as Gumby63 mentioned.

It is bland but smooth functionality. And it give me the tablet experience.:p
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jamus28:
It's not available in the market, but Zeam launcher works REALLY well on the HC flyer.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=664149

It's the only launcher I've found that allows the entire screen (even up to the edge) to be used for icons and widgets. It's also the fastest launcher.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] indiziert:
Nice. To be able to used entire screen for widget and launcher.

But, the different between tablet experience and smart phone experience, my opinion is that you dont want a application bar/dock on the bottom(or on the side) of the home screen. :D. That's why i choose stock HC over HTC Sense anytime.

To sum things up:

- Sense Launcher, pros: lots of widget, cons:

- ADW Launcher, pros: lots of mods, cons: no update

- GoLauncher HD, pros: additional customization, cons : still beta

- Stock Launcher, pros: - ,cons: bland,

-.....

Is there any other launcher that build especially for HC?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n7of9:
i recently installed VTL Launcher and i can use the whole screen..also works with all ADW themes
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] equi_design:
I've been testing launchers as well. I have used adw for years but wanted something with more of a tablet feel, yet plenty of customizability. I'm currently running LauncherPro but I *really* miss the custom shortcuts from adw. However LP allows full use of the screen and.seems to run a tad faster & smoother on my Flyer.

I wish CM's Trebuchet launcher was available for Honeycomb. My ultimate launcher would have a close-to-stock app drawer, ability to change icons, resize widgets, and a customizable grid for the homescreens (4x5 or whatever just doesn't cut it for me). Any suggestions?

I guess I will test out Zeam, Nemus, and VTL next.

equi

Rooted and running with Leedroid's Senseless HC ROM
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Vtl is a no go on honeycomb :-(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n7of9:
i use VTL on HC, it's perfect...check the forums for the apk rather than the store
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
HTC has about the most obsolete launcher on the planet now, but the one thing I cannot live without are the email widgets from sense. There are just no suitable replacements anywhere on the market.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah the sense widgets are awesome otherwise the launcher is dull and boring and too much wasted screen real estate. I really don't care so much about an ics update as much as id just like to see an update to sense in general
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Unfortunately judging from the HTC One X, the ICS Sense 4 is more of the same and even more boring. I'm afraid HTC has fallen hopelessly behind the competitors on this and Sense is now an anchor dragging them down.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I have a vivid and with sense 3.6 and I was curious what 4.0 brought so I read a long article comparing the 2 and while in terms of functionality its not alot different but the look is much better and more stock ics looking. Both 3.6 and 4.0 have better launchers, that contain drag and drop folder support, the ability to delete unwanted homescreens, and customizable dockbars. But when it comes to the flyer its all irrelavant because the flyer and Jetstream don't use sense for phones, they have their own sense 1.1 for tablets.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I stick by my assessment after playing with the HTC One x. Boring.....

Dock, folders, that's nothing new. Give me the flexibility to define number of rows and columns, on the home screen and in the app dock. Let me resize any widget and change the transition effects. How about some new widgets? HTC, come on...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I see where your coming from but to be fair I haven't seen that stuff on any stock launcher. For being stock, sense 3.6 and 4.0 are pretty damn nice. That's where the ability to change launchers just rocks. One of the best things about android.

And you gotta admit sense is definitely better than touch wiz! I guess thats where I disagree with your assessment that Sense is behind the times. Name one manufacturer that does it better? Really sense is about the best android skin there is from what I've seen.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
The problem with HTC's implementation is that if you install a 3rd party launcher, you lose functionality. I understand why they did it back in the day. But in the past two years, almost every launcher lets you have much greater control and customization. HTC needs to make a major overhaul to sense if its going to delay updates by 3 to 6 months every time
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I agree with that. Coming from Cyanogenmod on my Captivate, to my new HTC Vivid, I've stuck with the sense launcher because I like having shortcuts on my lockscreen, and the dock bar on the sense launcher determines the lockscreen shortcuts. If I switch to another launcher, I loose that functionality. I will say on my Vivid, I am a little mixed on sense. It's a skin on top of an OS that looks beautiful in its vanilla form! I had vanilla ICS on my captivate for a brief time, it is beautiful on its own. Sense 3.6's goal is to make everyone who doesn't care about software updates feel right at home on ICS. Inotherwords it makes ICS look like gingerbread, and thats not a good thing. And they somehow managed to completly overlook the new "Widgets in the App Drawer", as well as drag and drop widgets all together on sense 3.6.

Of cousre you know when it comes to the flyer I agree with you right? I'm talking phones that I like sense on. The flyer's Sense 1.1 for tablets is a half assed port of sense 3.0. Other than the cool widgets I find it to be pure rubbish. And the ring lockscreen is fine on a phone, but more of hinderence on a tablet, really overall do you really need a lockscreen on a tablet? I'd rather just shut it off, its not like I'm going to be sticking the flyer in my pocket.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I spent a good chunk of my evening trying out launchers and trying to get unsupported ics launchers working and my conclusion is honeycomb just blows. It shouldn't even be called 3.0 it should be called ics beta or android 1.0 for tablets. No developer interest... I mean really how hard would it be for apex to run on it? But no one cares about the handful of android tablets like the flyer that are stuck on Google's throwaway closed source os because most likely if its a tablet people actually own it'll be upgraded to ics eventually anyway. I really hope that an ics update is coming or our own developers can get cm9 running because honeycomb just sucks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I would like ICS, just because, but so far, I"m not seeing it bring a whole lot more that HC doesn't have.

When I want a break from Sense, ADW EX, GO Launcher, and others work quite well and already have more polish and features than any of the ICS compatible launchers. I keep a homescreen setup with GO Launcher and use that when I don;t need the stylus or other Sense features.

The one thing I can't replace with any 3rd party widget is the HTC email widget, nothing else is even close.

If you don't like Sense on honeycomb, stop whining about it, just don't use it. Just install one of the other nicely done launchers and you can switch anytime you like even on the stock ROM.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I might be too picky I guess but all the phone launchers just don't seem to display right in hc. And the cooler ones just don't show up on the market period.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
The play store is not the only place one can find applications. Many of the apps that can't be found in play store can be installed and work well
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Why doesn't apex work? I mean honeycomb and ics look the same so all ics launchers should work but don't. What is so different about honeycomb that ics launchers won't work? I tried to manually install apex and it wouldn't take, and i manually moved it to the system apps folder and it doesn't show up at all.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
There are differences. ICS has some different APIs and support for more things that APEX uses.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Well i think i might revert to gingerbread later this week when i get time. Sick of honeycomb lag, bugs and lack of choices for launchers etc. Yeah you can use alot of those phone launchers with honeycomb but they aren't optimized for it and they don't display right. I do like the design of honeycomb better ie virtual buttons, everything being on the right or left of the screen for easy thumb access etc but it literally is like being on an early ics build. Bad place for htc to leave the flyer imo. I'll check out dgs ics build when it matures more but in the meantime I think this tablet might be best with the version of android its was designed to run!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsoplinger:
I've seen mention that development has stopped for ADW launcher (and the EX version also) and I'm curious. Is this based on anything specific or just that the app hadn't been updated in 6 months since December?

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
If you check around, we, the Fliers, are one of the few devices left on honeycomb. I think all the launch developers have moved on to ICS.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsoplinger:
Are you saying most all tablets have moved on to ICS?

Sent from my PG41200 using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Yes they have. All the Moto, Samsung, Acer and Asus tablets have gotten or are getting in the next month, ICS updates. Even the Chinese tablets are getting iCS>
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah actually adw worked with honeycomb better before the last update that was 6 months ago. Since then, anderweb is nowhere to be found. I emailed him about it not displaying right on the flyer never got a response. I think adw is dead. Really seems apex is the new adw, i think its based off it in fact it even has adw theme icon support and real similar options. Ashame though because I really liked adw ex i even paid full price for it.

And yes honeycomb is pretty much dead too. As is the flyer. I hardly messed with it on GB. Just watched a review of the flyer and it looks world's better with gb so i might give it a try when i get time to roll it back later this week. Been real busy going to be a dad in 2 months so finding time is rough.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsoplinger:
Ah, guess I need to go support that tell HTC to give us ICS project. I didn't realize how out in the cold the Flyer & View were.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I would be content if they'd just fix honeycomb. I just rolled back to gingerbread and everything is faster and smoother game performance and all. Overall i like honeycomb better but our honeycomb rom just sucks and I ain't having any luck with custom roms either. They run faster in general but have random bouts of lag and i removed all the 3G stuff and still didn't help
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I've done extensive searching and I really can't believe there isn't an ics launcher with honeycomb support. Surely someone makes one, other than go team. I'm using go launcher hd currently but I wouldn't mind something nicer with widgets in the app drawer etc
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DeenPrecious:
The best launcher I've found till now is the "TSF Launcher". It is AWESOME, really damn fluid and have multitouch gestures. I'm running this Launcher on a Leedroid HC Rom. I just love how fluid it is.. sticking to it =D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
For anyone still using this tablet, adw just updated and its pretty awesome. Only problem is the edit icon menu is missing so hopefully they update it again.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jprednik:
Holo launcher = best launcher? Try it out.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] djcarlos7777:
Maybe Nova Launcher, but I think it's 4.0+ only :confused: !
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
Yeah that only supports 4.0+. You may want to try Go Launcher or ADW

I'd go for SmartLauncher. Really lightweight, and easy on the eyes. I use it on all of my devices.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] SladeNoctis:
Now i have seen many metal bumpers for the Gnote and most of them are usually the slider metal bumpers. Some of these sliders claim there sweet armor but the true sweet armor bumpers require screws due to my experience in my gs2 days. Here's the true sweet armor. http://www.sweet-armor.com/6-sweet-armor-gnote

Now the only issue i see right now is the price. Sadly theses are priced around the $100 mark which is a bit crazy since the GS2 version is only $40. Anyway just giving a heads up to anybody that may be interested.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] DMax99:
100 bucks??!! What??!! Must be made out of GOLD or something...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Chief Geek:
Id drop 40-50 right now on one (actually planned to when i saw the pics, but then saw the $100 remark and laughed. Very cool, very nice, way over proper price point. My search goes on.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emignatius:
If you get that, it's not going to be "Is that the new iPad?" reaction anymore, but "Is that the new iPhone 5?" especially with the chrome design.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:

Love ti.. IT is just osm. Specially Crome and gold..

But it is Too much Expensive..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
Even the Galaxy S2 Taurus case sells for $50...they will probably lower the price in 1-3months...since this is a newly release product, maybe they are seeing if there is demand in this price range.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aditya_reds:
Good case, but as others have said, its a bit on the expensive side. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ultimate_technologies:
It's a nice product, but for this price they should make more detail pictures to help sell it better. 100$ for a metal frame that is not protecting the back and the display is way too much.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] SladeNoctis:
Actually sweet armor cases actually have some lip on both sides for protection. But its not $100 protection tbh.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] SladeNoctis:
Great news, after much convincing with my sweet charms, they have dropped the price to $69.00. Reason why they have it price so high is because they don't get much profit with the $89.00 price. They said there products are as good and better then element cases.

anybody seen a bumper similar?(chrome),but not $100 ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] guitarplayerone:
Total BS that they aren't making profit at 69 dollars. That case costs no more than a few dollars to make at most.

For 69 dollars it better do quite a bit more than slightly protect the corners of the phone. Gentlemen you know what I am insinuating...

But all humor aside, unless this case drops to 40 at most, I don't see myself buying it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
I don't know but for the price to drop that drastic(100-->69) so quickly, this somehow makes me uneasy to consider it.....anyone feel the same?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
Yup. Will watch it drop to $30 and buy
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] guitarplayerone:
Even $30 is high. With tax and shipping, it would be over $40 even at that price. There are many similar products that are much cheaper.

Any body that brought the case can post photos? While i do agree its a price a bit high but these are in top quality compared tot he cheap ones found on ebay that in my experience can damage the phone instead of protecting it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
I like big phones.

I order it. (black color) Total $76.00 USD

why black ?

with my experience another color underlines the presence of the "cover" in the phone. So we can easy say you have a cover on your phone.

Black color "merge" with the black phone, which gives the appearance of one single unit. BIG phone with alien design :)

experience coming from:

-samsung galaxy S II Taurus case (metal gun color)

-samsung galaxy note SZLF case (silver color)

and of cause the case review will be for sure. (5-14 days delivery)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] stevencyc:
I received mine (Titanium Gold) and loved it. It is very solid and stiff.

I guess this is because it is CNC machined, uses aircraft aluminum and metal plating which are costly to do and hence the high price.

The metal plating looks good but time will tell whether it will fade, peel or easily scratched.
