With so many features, it's almost hard to know where to start. This time around, we'll dig a bit deeper and get GO Launcher EX looking even better, backed up, and extend the functionality of the app drawer. Now that everyone is on the same page, let's make this home screen a thing of power and beauty. Delivered Tuesdays and Fridays. One of the nice things about GO Launcher EX is that you can really extend the look and feel of your device.
You can change the themes, font, transition speed, and even hide the statusbar among other things. If you enable the circular screens, you can scroll immediately from your last to your first screen without having to scroll all the way back. The screen transition speed can make the difference between a lagging and an instantaneous screen scroll. From that same settings screen, you can configure the home screen to show or hide the status bar.
This is nice if you want to get a clean, minimalist screen. If you opt for this, fear not, you can still see the status bar by swiping the home screen downward.
You can make some changes to the look and feel of your phone with these apps alone, but the fun really starts when you download icon packs, play around with widgets, and hunt for unique wallpapers. Icon packs change how the icons for some or all of the apps look on your phone.
Most packs are free or cost a few bucks, and you need a launcher on your phone to use them. All three have been around for a few years and give you free license to rearrange your home screens, and even your app drawer. A few newcomers that are worth checking out are Dodol and Buzz Launcher.
If you poke around the Internet, you can find some stunning designs that people have created with the help of Nova, Apex, or other apps like them. Some examples rely on widget tools, such as Ultimate Custom Widget UCCW to carefully arrange specific design elements on your phone's screen. Worth mentioning is the Themer launcher , which was built by the same people who run MyColorscreen , a website for showing off custom home screens.
Themer makes the process of tweaking your phone's aesthetic infinitely easier because you use premade designs built by a community of Android enthusiasts.
All you need to do is find a theme you like, press a few buttons, and it's loaded onto your phone. You can switch up your theme as often as you like, without needing to devote hours to moving around apps and widgets or changing icon packs. So-called smart home-screen replacements have very different goals from those of design launchers. These apps seek to put the apps and information you need right in front you, so that, ideally, you'll never have to hunt around your phone ever again.
With most of these home-screen replacements, they get smarter the more you use them because they learn which apps you use the most. Some even ask for your home and work addresses, so they know when you're at home or at the office and can show you appropriate apps for each situation.
The top home-screen replacements are Yahoo-owned Aviate and EverythingMe. Aviate comes with its own unique design that organizes your apps and widgets into their own cards to keep things tidy.
The app is always aware of your location, so it can show you the right apps and widgets when you wake up in the morning, commute to the office, walk around looking for lunch, or plug in your headphones to listen to music.
You can't do much to alter Aviate's design, but you can use custom icon packs and change the theme from light to dark. EverythingMe emphasizes search, with a large search bar on your home screen that you can use to find apps and contacts or to search the Web for the information you need. This launcher also automatically organizes your apps into "smart folders" based on category, such as social or fitness, and will suggest new apps you can download in each category.
Another choice is newly-launched, US-only Terrain , which was born out of the Samsung Accelerator program, and designed to replace TouchWiz. It's not just for Samsung phones though; it works on any phone running Android 4. How do I pin it to the favorites menu which favorites? Thank you. You have to pin the TouchHelper app to the favorites by long-pressing the icon from the carousel homescreen. Thank you, may all yor babies be born naked. Hello, I have the same problem, I suspect if your kindle now has version 7.
ADWex still works except now wallpaper can be set at all now. Can anyone confirm this?? Also can the KDHD 7 use live wallpaper?
The latest firmware update broke wallpapers on alternate launchers unfortunately. You can probably download it from some alternate appstore like 1mobile. It remains a black background all the time now.
