What is a "Launcher" and what are the best ones out there?!

Have you considered that it might be Nova that is causing the slight battery drain?

Obviously lol... which is why I wanna diable TouhWiz so I don't have 2 of the same thing running at once. Save a little bit of battery. Nova is temp till we get the JellyBean update, then I'll be uninstalling Nova.

The Jelly Bean update will still have TouchWiz.

I know this. But I'm using the JB theme and I'm loving it. After the update I will have no need for Nova really..

I'm assuming what you are loving is that by using Nova and the JB theme you are going for a stock JB appearance, but what I'm saying is that when the JB update comes out you still aren't going to get the stock JB experience because it won't be a stock JB update; it will be JB with Samsung's TouchWiz skin over JB, just like it is currently TouchWiz over Ice Cream Sandwich. When the update comes out you probably won't notice much aesthetically. Therefore, if you love your current setup you are going to have to keep using Nova, and even the JB skin if you like the icons, because otherwise you'll have the TouchWiz/Samsung icons.

If you really wanna disable the stock launcher that badly, download titanium backup if you haven't already. Go to backup/restore and look for launcher, select it and then freeze it NOT uninstall
