They're all showing up properly on the app, but I'll jump on the desktop version later and get them sorted. Cheers for pointing that out :D

good job fella...hope you carry on what i started..:) check out the back end of my two threads and there are more launchers there from people who recommended some to add...also since you have few posts reserved add lockscreen themes for MagicLocker and GoLocker ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Cheers man. Yeah I did notice the other suggestions, but I'll leave them for now and see what the people in this one suggest, it keeps everyone more involved that way :cool:

And even though I've got reserve spaces, I'll need those for the other launchers, but I've asked one of the mods if he can add a few spaces in right after the OP, so at least that way it's all one after the other, rather than all over the place. I'm just awaiting a reply to see if he can do it :fingerscrossed: :D

I'll add those a little later :)

It's not paid content on that mediafire link is it?

Tanks for overview.

1) Which one is best now?

2) In other words: The best easy to use. I do not need 100 different possibilities to alter sth.

Thanks for all!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
The best for customizing is GO Launcher EX in my opinion because it has much more options than others.

But the best all round I would say is Apex Launcher and it's easy to use aswell.

is there any launcher that can load the default sony widgets like on the stock home screen?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Unfortunately, no. Other launchers don't support the Sony widgets which is a shame to be honest. I'm surprised a dev hasn't worked around this problem yet.

ahm ok and its too bad that we cant use the sony widgets, ive tried the apex launcher its great but still there's something missing (sony widgets) :), if they can port the sony widgets on these launcher, this will be the best launcher :), hope the CM rom will add support on sony widgets on their final version :).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Yeah it is a shame to be honest. I was running Apex for ages on my Xperia S but stopped because it can't have the widgets. I'm now running TSF Shell instead and even though that can't have the widgets either, it looks great when using it.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bhootnath:
thanks.. great list.. your feature list for ADW seems a bit on the low side.. also you forgot its paid cousin.. ADW Ex... it does almost anything any other launcher can do.. and best thing i like about it the shortcuts to screens and support for custom folder icons.. which i do not think too many launchers have.. see my current setup.. it cant be done without the screen shortcuts and custom folder icons..

on that note.. it may be a good idea to make a tabular list.. features on vertical down.. launcher on horizontal top row.. and then tick/cross on the feature supported or not.. can be really valuable one stop reference guide for people who do not want to install every launcher to find out which one supports the feature they like most..

and yes.. for widgets.. make a separate thread only.. else it may become too much info in one thread..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
I'll be sure to add a few more features for ADW into the list later, aswell as ADW EX.

The section I've bolded in the quote from you, would be kinda difficult to implement using my phone, I believe. If you have time, would you mind putting it together how you think it should be laid out? If you can, I can then have a proper look and see if I'd be able to

put it into it or not though.

But even if it stays how it is, it's not as if people can't ask me about the features anyway. I know that might be as ideal, but at least it will do for now.

I've personally used most of these launchers anyway so I know a lot about them.

And regarding the thread for widgets, that would take me a hell of a lot of planning and sorting out because there's absolutely **** loads widgets available.

I think I'd have to do it by category, but even then there would be tons for each category.

"Knowledge is power" = Check out this [GUIDE] How to be a New User (and not a noob)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bhootnath:
tabular list.. i will get on it.. probably will start in shared Google spreadsheet.. so more ppl can contribute/ correct..

and hell yeah.. there are just too many widgets.. it is is sure gonna be a PITA :laugh:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Do you think if will be possible to actually put it into this thread though? Or is it gonna be summat I'll simply have to link to?

Too right it will :( I'll hopefully find the motivation to get it done at some point though :D

"Knowledge is power" = Check out this [GUIDE] How to be a New User (and not a noob)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bhootnath:
I think, initially till the list gets to at least partial updated for most popular launchers.. just a link.. then you can add screenshot of the same to the post...

man.. there are so many launchers :crying:

Android Launchers

For now I have made list of features and launchers..will be going through the posts and update the spreadsheet... it is publicly editable.. so feel free to update it but please please do not delete stuff or spam it...

will also try and install as many launchers as time permits to keep it up to date.. at least the free version features.. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Thank you so much for that mate. I'll add it to the OP later on and also fill out some of that info.

Luckily, there's only 2 of those launchers, at the moment, that I haven't used before so it should be quite easy to get the list updated.

Nova Launcher 1.2.2

Hi.

I talk from Brazil. I using Sony Xperia S, ICS 4.0.4 (6.1.A.0.452). And Nova Launcher 1.2.2 Prime (now I tried 1.3beta3).

Unfortunately, I can't found solutions to my problem. And I can't identify it here in the forum. I'm "Junior Member" and I can't post in developer area.

This is my problem: Some widgets, default of ICS, disappear. :confused:

Widgets like Wheater, Tools, Notes, etc... Others, not default, instaled by Google Play, working correctly.Definitely do not know what to do. I am a layman in the subject.Sorry for my bad english. :) Best Regards!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
You can't post in the developer area until you get 10 posts.

I'm not too sure how to help you because I don't really use widgets.

The best place for you to ask is Xperia S Q&A section. Someone will be able to help you there.

Regards :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Arvid719:
It´s cause Sonys widgets are "locked" to thier own launcher. Ff you would have used the search function, you would have found your answer.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
No they don't. Sony's widgets are locked so they can only be used on default.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kien:
I tried atom last week but didn't really like it, using Nova at the moment. I found 91Locker which has swipe (with app shortcuts) and pattern/password as well but it used more RAM than I'd like.

Can someone post the steps to get Google play store to find certain apps when it doesn't recognize my device because I have the DPI set low? I remember when I was on aokp it had the steps built into the ROM but I don't remember how. Play store either doesn't show what I was searching for or it says device not compatible. Also what is the lowest you can set it before the play store can't recognize it? Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kerns_JW:
Change dpi, reboot, clear market cache, enter market, accept.

As far as dpi for market, depends on what you consider working. As you move away from stock, you start having different things happening like movies+tv disappearing or apps being not supported. You have to mess around since no one has yet posted a list of trial and errors. To get around the apps issue, download the modified market app. It will remove the app restriction, but be careful you don't try to install something you shouldn't.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
Download LCD modder pro. It gives you the option to download modded market. Works great for me

I use rom toolbox pro to change dpi, reboot, download 2 files from lcd modder pro, install and reboot. You might see a bunch of things fc while its prepping to reboot but its fine

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elesbb:
Haha! I know the feeling!!! Just a quick note!

When you replace the files. Delete the app cache for the market and Google services framework via settings then flash the modded market. I'm gonna look into Google services framework as well and see what role that gas in market compatibility. Also after replacing files, reboot to recovery and clear bother cache partition and dalvik cache. That should help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
So after I changed DPI and rebooted, my phone wouldn't come on. I did dark side cache several times and phone wouldn't come on. Thank God I had an old nandroid. Not the current jb one. So I did follow the steps exactly like you said.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I should have mentioned I was on a jb ROM lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elesbb:
Did you change the DPI before adding the files? or did you change the files then change DPI and then reboot? It being JB shouldnt really matter as the android market is pretty universal as GB market works on ICS and etc. However they may have changed it.

Can you provide an exact step by step as to what you did?

Probably the iPhone because of the ease of use plus the amount of available accessories. Unless they need the SD card or the LTE, I don't see why not. Only reason I got this phone over the 4S was because this was a bit cheaper after a deal at Radio Shack.

But this wouldn't be a bad choice if you value screen size over accessories.

I guess it would depend on the friend/family member.

I wouldn't even recommend a smartphone for my parents; they have no need for one and would just complain about battery life and how much of a pain it is to use it as a plain old phone.

For my brother and close friends I recommend the Evo LTE because it's a nice phone and I like HTC's sense of style and also like Sense itself.

For friends that just can't live without a physical keyboard I'd recommend the Motorola Photon Q because the original Photon was pretty decent and this looks about the same except with the slide-out keyboard and updated specs.

I can see recommending an iPhone for someone that wants a "casual" smartphone. That is, someone who wants to do stuff like play games, share photos, and browse facebook but doesn't really want to do much more than that. A side benefit of this is that I wouldn't ever have to help them with troubleshooting since I can legitimately claim to not know a thing about how to fix anything on it.

As far as setups on the android phones, I wouldn't bother with any of that. If they're interested in rooting it they can make up their own minds about what rom works best for them. All of the recent phones are perfectly fine and usable in their stock form.

[General Questions and Answers] andyfigueroa:
For me this is highly theoretical. I recently moved from Dayton, Ohio to Kingsland, Georgia with a Verizon Galaxy Nexus (CDMA). In both places, if I allowed the LTE radio, the phone would get too hot to handle comfortably, and 3G isn't that great either. But in my neighborhood, there is no AT&T or T-Mobile data signal at all. That severely limits practical choices.
