ADW.Launcher

Thanks for the link to ADW's website. Like some of you, I've got apps missing from the market since a few days.
 
I just got Adw yest. Been playn around with it and im really trying to give this a chance from HTC sense but so far I'm not overly impressed. What is it that people like so much more? No disrespect to the dev. There are a few things that I'd like to see. Can I not add HTC live weather widget to the home screen? Pinch to see all home pages would be a nice addition.

People use alternative home launchers because these give them features that the stock launcher doesn't. If you are happy with the Sense launcher than use it :)

LauncherPro has the punch to zoom airplane mode.
 
For those running an HTC Sense device (Incredible, EVO, etc.), did you lose a lot of the stock Android widgets (along with the HTC widgets) when you installed ADW.Launcher? I'd really like the standard calendar and weather widgets back...

Thanks! :)
 
Just wondering why these Launchers are not available on the market? I've tried to use AppBrain to install both ADW.Launcher and LauncherPro as well as searching the market. Is it because they are in beta? Is the market just broken for only some apps? I understand I can download an apk and install manually... I'm just wondering if there is some reason why they aren't in the market.
 
@Espy: There's a problem with the market. Some apps aren't showing up for some reason and Google is working on a fix. "Where" is not there either which is not in Beta.
 
Maybe a stupid question but you cant use ADW AND lockbot at the same time? like a lockbot lock screen and an ADW home screens icons? Correct?
 
Any idea how to add the net connect (named "Mobile" in my phone) widget at home screen in LauncherPro? My device is HTC Wildfire.

I have installed BeautifulWidget but could not add the net connect icon. The widget allowed me to add the vibrant mode or the airplane mode.

Help? :)
 
instal Widgetsoid2.x....it is amazing and customizable widget program....just try it....
 
i'm really enjoying adwlauncher and am wondering are there icons packs for it? i'm happy with how i've set it up so far but would like to try changing up my icons but can't seem to find just icon packs... only different "theme's"... i do not want a new theme, just new icons... any suggestions?
TIA
 
is there a place where i can find a set of instructions? how to's? i have the latest version and cannot seem how to figure out how to change my dock's background... states that i'm able to... even launcher pro docks are compatible, as so it says, but can't seem to find out how... anyone know how or can point me in the right direction? i also have launcherpro and like that as well, but can't figure out how to change my icons... i long press on them and the only option is to delete... won't allow me to put a "custom shortcut" on the desktop... kinda stuck...
TIA
Dig deaper into folder organizer. Ie use the far right setting...shortcuts and create customs shortcuts to the apps and customize the icon.


It does so much more than what people give it credit for
found the answer to my question... thanks Mr. Ed...
 
Hi!
I don't now what's wrong (I think I change a option ...):

if I touch and hold a app(symbol) on the ADW launcher screen nothing happen's ...
I can't move/delete the app(symbol)

[in drawer screen everything is okay -> I can move a app from drawer to ADW]

Thanx 4 help :)

Sound like you locked the desktop. From the home screen press the menu button> lock/unlock desktop. I just started using this feature and it is great. Prevents my kinds from moving things around when I let them use my phone.

I didn't know you can do that. That's great to know :)
