Okay after about 8 hours, I couldn't stand how big the screen was and how much space there was between all the icons in the home screens. What a waste of real estate.

I'm giving Nova a shot, and may see if Apex is any better.

Am I losing anything besides Sense widgets? I've already set up my lock screen the way I want it before making Nova the default, so my lock screen is fine.

Anybody else have any experience with the new ICS launchers vs Sense?

I have to wait a little longer I just got it about an hour ago... But so far not a big fan...

I use Launch-X Pro to get more icons on the screen. Used it on my OG EVO and it's working even better on the EVOLTE. It's just an app, not a full launcher replacement.

Not a dumb question. Hold the power button and then hit the home button. It puts it in your camera directory.

Or you can do it that way as well.

Nova works well for me now. I'll still give Apex a shot this weekend. I'm still not too sure of the differences. I'm also liking having my vertical app drawer back. I hated the side swiping pages.

And is anybody else getting scrollable widgets to work in Sense? My Pure Calendar widget wouldn't scroll in Sense...but works fine in Nova.

My Launch-X Pro widgets scroll just fine in Sense.

I used Apex on CM9 on my old phone. I liked it better than Nova. I've never had a Sense phone, so I'm going to give it a fair shake for a few days. I have a sneaky feeling that I'll be rooting and ROMing as soon as some stable ROMs are available though.

Nick what is the battery app you use, I assume that's a battery app. the 87 on your screen.

This thread is a great example of things that can never happen with iOS. Google must love stuff like these comments.

Edit - i.e. Android is better since users can customize it to their liking. iOS? Take it or leave it. Or, go wacky making an exciting folder.

Hmm, I actually think exactly the opposite. If you don't like what is there out-of-the-box, you change it.

iOS's credo is if you don't like what is there out-of-the-box, tough [deleted].

BUT YOU CAN MAKE FOLDERS!

Also, Nova Prime is one of the best purchases one can make in the Play Store.

I made it with an widget editing app called Make Your Clock Widget

If I use Apex as my launcher will it get rid of my HTC Lock screen?

[Mophomania]

after one day stock... I went with Nova Prime. What a huge difference! Smooth like buttah, no Sense "reload" and I get my landscape mode back on home screens. Thus thing is awesome! No issues yet. Well, there was one, after a reboot, I kept getting pop ups saying the lock screen failed to start. It was constantly coming up for about five minutes, then it just fixed itself. Aside from that, its a great launcher with just the right amount of tweeking options for me. The only thing I've seemed to not be able to use is the sense Widgets. I used Android pro Widgets and beautiful Widgets instead. Loving it so far.

I love Go Launcher... i haven't put it on my evo yet, was afraid of putting it on over Sense and reduce performance. I have always went with vanilla android and using it that way. I won't have to wait too much longer for that though now :P
