Root Which Launcher to Choose?

[a5pe4]

Ok so I've been using the ADW launcher that's included in Jerry's BACKside ROM and while I like some of the customization, I don't like the lagginess found in the app drawer. I'm wondering if it's because there are 5 apps per row. Also once in a while I do get force closes. Cammy showed me the stock GB launcher which I do like but there are a set number of dock icons and there is virtually no customization. However the app drawer screen is smooth and fast. I like the 4 apps per row with black background. Anyone else have suggestions for launchers or want to say anything about the one they use?

I use Go launcher Ex and I like it. A lot of personalization and a lot of options too. You can have a lot of home screens with it too I believe you can even have as many as you want and you can get themes for Go launcher as well as different lock screens. I never had a problem with lag either. https://market.android.com/details?...1bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5nYXUuZ28ubGF1bmNoZXJleCJd

Zeam launcher works wonderfully for me.

A vote for my fav, Balancer. Has some nice features, such as a built-in file manager.

Zeam and Balancer are totally different from what I'm used to. It seems like Zeam is lightweight and balancer has a lot of customization but they don't feel right lol

I use golauncherex I like that the font option changes anything the font changer app didn't so most of my fonts even in the browser are now Lucida Handwriting

I like LauncherPro. I use two of it's features in particular: scrolling icon dock and icon dock swipe actions. i guess custom dock icons and using 1-5 icons to do *anything* you want is worth mentioning too. Not unique to LP, but it's there and it's powerful.
It also lets you hide apps from the drawer, and has some cool homescreen transition effects (although i only have one homescreen). With the scrolling icon dock and swipe actions, i have 10 apps accessible in one tap or swipe, and 20 more accessible in two. good 'nuff for me without needing extra home screens.

I've tried all the others mentioned except Balancer and prefer LauncherPro. Having just learned of Balancer, i'm gonna try it, cuz i can.

I've tried Zeam, LauncherPro, and AdwEX. I find myself always coming back to AdwEx though.

Same with me (so far anyway). I like being able to hide the dock bar with just a swipe to keep my iOS friends from going into my messages
