Classic Android Launcher

[Tslide91]

Anyone know where I could find that? I've searched far and wide with no luck.

Basically I just want a launcher that looks like 1.0/1/5/6

Halp! I miss the old-school friendly-looking Android. The new sleek look and everything is great, it's impressive. But it doesn't make you feel all giddy when you play with it. It just doesn't have that "charm."

So if anyone knows where to find a launcher that mimicks the classic look, please point me in that direction!

Thanks in advance!

Download an old rom and extract the apk?

Don't think that would work unless you wanted to use and old version of launcher pro or adw

Any developer around willing to spend a few minutes to make a simple classic launcher?

LOL. You remind me of a younger colleague of mine, who likes all things vintage.

Zeam is one of my favourite launchers, apart from LauncherPro. It's simple and lightweight, though it doesn't look old school. You may want to make it look more vintagey using wallpapers and icons. That way, you have a launcher that doesn't have too many bells and whistles, yet supports your phone's capabilities.

If you insist on looking for the older versions of launchers, you can search something like LauncherPro .apk in Google, and download one of the older versions (check file version name is available) hosted on file sharing sites. There are possible risks involved though!

It wouldn't run an older version.

Really what im looking for is the 1.5 app drawer, the tab you pull up and all that
