out of curiosity which Launcher is everyone using? i tried apex recently. it was good however i didnt like the fact i was unable to use widgets unless i was rooted. i know there is a few launchers out, but what is everyone using and what do you like about the specific browser?

I use mostly Chrome and Opera Mobile
 
Have you guys tried the new Firefox update ? Its really neat and nice n smooth check it out !!!
 
Are you talking about browser or launcher? Your poll is about ICS/JB launcher.

Anyway my favorite is Apex launcher and Dolphin browser to answer both.
 
i meant LAUNCHER lol my fault for some reason browser came out of my mind when i typed this thread up . im also using chrome i mean launcher though sorry about that guys lol
 
I was using stock touchwiz for the longest time. Switched to GO launcher with my new JB rom. It finally has circular transitions. That is, if you're on home screen five, and flick right, you go back to one! Not every launcher seems to do that.

Also, GO has a nice calendar widget, and plenty of themes!

id have to try that again, i thought Apex was cool, with the JB theme but as i said before you couldnt use any widgets without a root :(
 
Tad confused....

Are you asking about Browsers or Launchers :D

Browser != Launcher ;)

Poll says:
which browser are you using and prefer?

But you list launchers....

Apex/Chrome just in case.
 
I tried apex, go, nova but now I'm back to tw. It's so much smoother for me, but that could be because I crank the rows/columns as high as possible on the others.

yea it wouldnt let me alter the Poll title. but i meant launcher. im also using chrome, i feel it runs smooth and im used to using it on my regular home computer as well as tablet.
 
Go launcher. Consistency is everything and from gb to jb no real problems
Edit: maybe ignore that. Maybe time for a different launcher for jellybean as it's never been quite butter for more than a couple of minutes, treacle maybe. . Clutching straws though, more likely something else
 
my main thing i like, might sound stupid, but i like that smiling text message icon that would be on the bottom of the main screen.
 
i was unable to use widgets unless i was rooted

i use apex, and i have widgets. the only limitation of apex in reference to widgets and rooting (as well as every other custom launcher, i believe) is that you cannot drag widgets from the application drawer to the homescreen. you can just add them like we all used to by longpressing on your homescreen and selecting widgets and then picking the one you want.

circular transitions

i think most launchers have this function buried somewhere in their settings :)

i think i shall possibly give that a try then ! :)
 
i decided to try apex again. i must say i do enjoy it. especially with the ability to get the whole wallpaper in the backround. as well as the icons and what not !!
