I threw my phone on accident when I shook it lol

I like the look of launcher pro best, but I couldn't figure out how to get my handcent icon down there like you did??
 
So what are the best calendar/agenda widgets to use since we cant use the stock calendar on Go Launcher. I have Smooth Calendar Widget on my home screen but i want a full size calendar or something close to it. I downloaded Jorte but I think it looks rather weak personally.
 
I like Go Launcher, I like the way the Launcher looks when I look at all my apps (scrolling from left to right, also allowing me to see my homescreen background is a PLUS). Will be sticking with this for a while. Tried LPP, it was ok...
 
Ive been impressed with launcher pro paid. As a plus u get the 3d app drawer and the animated screen transitions are awesome .

Only thing I wish LPP did that Go Launcher does is the app drawer is semi-transparent and slides horizontally.

Other than that, I reverted back to LPP just because of the widgets and the 10X10 configuration, which I didn't realize would benefit me a lot as far as positioning widgets so that it wouldn't block parts of my wallpaper.
 
I'd give ADW a try. The free version is better than the free Launcher Pro IMO. You don't get the widgets or the multiple docks, but it doesn't give you an annoying pop up when you try to edit a widget and accidentally trigger a resize.

I actually intended to try out LP+ on the day that expiration fiasco happened. Luckily the site went down as well so I managed to run across a thread about the crippling expiration before I had a chance to pay for it.

I've been a very happy user of LPP for awhile now (paid version). I see that you note an expiration issue above. I never experienced any issues and I've been a user since last year. What actually happened? I'll prob run a search, but just wondering.
 
Yea.... after the latest update for both Go Launcher AND Zeam, couldn't deal with the lag, currently using ADW launcher and liking it. We'll see how long it last. Personally, I like Sense and it runs pretty fast on my Evo, just wish it had landscape homescreen and I wouldn't have to fumble with these other launchers.
 
I have been a launcher pro guy with myn's icons but this threat has led me to go launcher ex and I am really liking it
 
I have to say, with the amount of changes and updates Go Launcher has had lately (and at a rapid pace), I'm on the verge of going back to that.

Launcher Pro Plus has been getting slower and slower since I've gone back and there won't be any updates until Fede releases the revised launcher. If the widgets that Go Launcher is supposed to add to the next update end up being good, I might just jump ship again and use Go Launcher as my dedicated Launcher.
 
I've tried just about every home replacement out there and I still think LauncherProPlus is the best. It's the most customizable without sacrificing functionality.

On another note, I have been playing around with a few others, that while they're not really what I like for day to day use, they are kind of fun to play around with.

Metro UI ... Windows phone 7 clone
iClone ... iPhone ripoff
Android Seven ... Windows pc desktop
SPB Mobile Shell ... awesome 3D effects
 
I have used LP for the last 6 months, first on my Hero and then a Shift. Just loaded up Go Launcher and going to give that a try. One thing I am not sure I like though is the extra steps required to get an app out of the drawer and onto a screen...
 
Oooooooo! Going to look that up now! Thanks dude!

It's a REALLY good launcher and I think it's actually more stable than LPP. only thing is, I'm waiting for the new release that'll include widgets. That's really the only thing still keeping me using LPP. Until Fede releases the new launcher with all the revisions he's currently working on, I have to go with something more stable.
 
If you havent seen SPB Shell 3D ..... Do it, now. Google it, youtube it, just do it. :)
I havent had it long but, 0 problems for me so far! Former LP paid user.
