Nice work, can you modify the launcher to put folders in the app drawer?

Jumps when scrolling between first and last screen in app drawer and home screen ruins the experience. We need an option to disable infinite scrolling. Then this will rival the touchwiz ux launcher. Still, I appreciate the work you're putting into this, great job.

Has anyone noticed how this launcher downsizes the widgets? It makes them smaller and part of the widget is lost.
Look at this. First screen is stock GB launcher, then Xperia S (HVGA).

From what I understand, the pagination layout is causing the whole launcher layout (where you put stuff) to reduce its size so they can both fit.
@OP, if it's possible, can you please make an option to show or not show the pagination layout?

I am sorry about the lack of updates, I am really busy lately. Will have more time to work on this after 06th of July.
The ICS update for XPERIA S is finally out and it features launcher updates such as native widget resizing and widget preview.
I will try to add the widget resizing to the GB version and also add my modifications to the ICS version.

So there will be two versions if I'm correct?

    - It can be installed even on Xperia devices with stock firmware.

    Will there be a possibility to resize widgets? This is the only thing that stop me from using this as default launcher (always using 5x7 grid)

    Sent from my U8815 using xda premium

    That option will come later..

    0.9.1 is now available. Changes:
    - Added possibility to Backup and Restore launcher settings (widgets cannot be restored due to Android limitation)
    - Added support for Launcher Pro (Plus) and ADW Launcher icon packs
    - Added built-in icon pack. Included icons from Xperia S: Browser, Calculator, Calendar, Camera, Clock, Phone, Contacts, Email, Gallery, Messaging, Music, Settings
    - Enabled infinite scrolling on the desktop and the app drawer (currently cannot be disabled)
    - Slightly increased desktop usable space for widgets / shortcuts / folders (+10.0 dp)
    - Automatically close an open folder, when a shortcut in it is clicked


    Icon pack selection: Preferences -> Appearance -> Icon Pack

    Can you port those widgets for this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1345601 ? For 360 Launcher
    As mentioned numerous times, it's not possible.

    I can confirm I am actively working on porting the ICS/JB variant of the Xperia launcher and adding extra features. The port is based on the latest available version (present in the latest firmware of Xperia T).

    I can confirm I implemented the ability to resize all widgets (the non-modified (Sony) versions only support resizing widgets that are declared as resizable). I am also adding some small additional features currently unavailable in the GB version such as: enable/disable showing titles of shorcuts and folders on the desktop, etc.

    I expect to finish it in about a week or so from now.

    Cheers :)

    Hi guys, two days ago I started working on porting the ICS version of the Xperia launcher (from Xperia T) and adding settings, of course.
    It will be easily installable on both Xperia and non-Xperia devices.
    On devices with ICS/JB the new version seems to be smoother than the old GB version.

    Next release is almost ready. What will be in it:
    -Backup and Restore launcher settings
    -LauncherPro and ADW icon packs support
    -Build-in pack with Xperia S icons
    -Infinite scrolling on the desktop and the app drawer
    -A little more space (10.0 dp) for widgets/schortcuts/folders on the desktop
