Not counting a ROM of some sort, I mean like Sweeter Home, Panda, etc.
My phone is o/c and I have yet to find one that doesn't lag somewhat. I've tried I think every one of them...Sweeter Home is probably by far the best if you have the skill and patience (I do NOT :icon_ devil, but the best one after that for me was...I thought...GDE.
- I like the cube, which itself transitioned quite nice, especially O/C
- I like the conversation widget
- I LOVE the app launcher with the browser and phone (saves me two icon spots, and I only use one screen so my primary screen is real important to me)
But once I got past the few noobish things that I didn't know how to operate like how to add the custom icon/shortcuts (still can't edit them using Better Cut when they are on the desktop though)...I still got some force closes trying to add some shortcuts to the GDE desktop...I don't do that often so that certainly wasn't a deal breaker for me, but the little animation each icon does before it opens up what it is supposed to open up is a deal breaker for me. I checked every settings page and didn't see a way to turn it off, so I did a Nandroid backup (just in case I change my mind and want to go back) and restored my plain old set up.
Basically I was just digging the app launcher with the phone and browser but it's not worth it for the hassle. So the pros for me are above, but sadly the cons outweighed the pros:
- Force closes occasionally (not a huge issue)
- Slightly slower not in transition but just doing general tasks (not a big enough deal to be noticeable)
- Icon animation...sadly, a deal breaker
What are you guys using and why?
EDIT: Crap, I forgot to add a poll
