Can you help me to ans few questions abt this new phone - HTC One X

I wanna ask that if my phone is normal?
In the original app drawer, I cannot build a folder. This makes my app drawer messy.
In the original launcher, the app drawer shortcut cannot be removed.
When I used Go Launcher EX (and other Launchers), I cannot add Music and Weather Clock Widget.
Last, there is no video player.
I dunno whether it is normal or not but this is not very user-friendly for me.

may I ask to post in the correct thread? This one is for app and theme development and not for questions. Use therefore the General one.

I am pretty sure you can do this be changing the grid settings in the app drawer.

If you download a custom launcher from the market you can change the names to whatever you like. GO Launcher EX will allow you to change the names however due to GO Launcher being a RAM hog your phones performance will slip a little. I'm unsure if other less-RAMhogging launchers will let you do that but you can look on the market.

Yes. It's been a while since I used GO Launcher so I've forgotten how you get the menu up to change it, but it definitely works.

Cool, what do you like about the Launcher?
If it's the slide effect you like, you will find it in several different launchers these days. Im pretty sure ADW and Apex launcher has them. Maybe even GoLauncher?
The rest is just a live wallpaper and icon setup
Edit: OOPs... a wallpaper and a widget. I don't know how he got it on the lock screen though.
Bazooka launcher perhaps?

Could also be another lock screen replacement like Widget Locker etc.

[Q] Launcher help!

I am trying to find a launcher with no desktop grid, so i can place apps anywhere i want. And also to have stackable widgets, so i can place apps over widgets, but im not having any luck. So i came here to the pros in hopes that someone knew of a launcher that has both of those features in 1. I love customizing my phone
Edit: I forgot to mention that the launcher should also support custom icon packs!
anyone?

I don't know, not spending $15 on a launcher. Those are the two that came to mind when I read your post, though.

Edge 5x6 Launcher with Speed Options

This is for KK. I will be working on a lollipop soon.
I know it isn't much, but I hate the stock screen grid, so I created a 5x6 launcher and apps grid. It seems to be working with all the widgets. Let me know if there is anything I missed. The home grid is 5x6, the app drawer is 5x6, and the folders are 4x5.
This should work on all roms that have twrp or cw. If you do not, but are rooted, take out the TouchWizHome.apk and put it into/system /priv-app/, delete the TouchWizHome.apk and TouchWizHome.odex(if you have it). Reboot and Profit.
I have made it so you will not have to do anything but flash the zip. You do not have to remove the odex file. If for some reason you do please let me know. All you should have to do is go into Settings, Application Manager, All Apps, TouchWizHome - Clear settings.
I have added the 5x6 regular speed, fast and insane. I've done the 4x5 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer that many have asked for. I did think it was kinda weird, so I made a 4x6 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer too.
If there is something I need to add to this please let me know, I was told I have issues explaining myself
Thanks Toss3 for the values to edit the launcher and SkywalkerZ for the values to edit for the speed.
If you like the post, please hit thanks
Here is a revert just in case...

Thank you, great post!
I replaced the apk using root explorer and setting permissions.. works like a charm!! Awesome work!!

Could you explain what this is? Is it an overlay for the stock TW launcher? Or is this a completely new launcher, similar to using Nova?

Sorry, wasn't notified you posted on here.
If you aren't on deoxed, you have to delete TouchwizHome.odex.
Otherwise You might have to wipe the settings on Touchwiz Home

Will this work for other tw roms or just lab rats?

That module doesn't do anything to the note edge launcher.
I'm really just requesting the app drawer to be 4x6, if possible. The homescreen can stay the same, I like 4x5. [emoji1]
