GO Launcher EX.. Works great, no lagging no problems

I have just started playing around with GO Launcher and loving it, playing around with the fling speed and transition has given it a whole lot more finished feel

I am using the Go Launcher too but i think that after the new minor update it lags on boot. No other lags after that.

I prefer GO Launcher

Zeam for me.

It has all the features I want (custom dock, home screen gestures) and is so incredibly fast.

I was using GO Launcher Ex and loved it but the new Stockwells B160 Rom includes Launcher Pro so I am giving it a run. Frankly I think I prefer GO. there's not really a lot of difference so far as both are very customizable. I think I'll probably go back to GO as I miss the extra option of swipe upwards. I used this as the camera shortcut - if I haven't got glasses on it's not always easy to find the camera shortcut icon when I need it in a hurry. It worked great. It's a shame to waste memory space on a launcher sitting in the rom unused.

You can easily change the Launcher included in the ROM by booting your phone into recovery mode (holding volume + and - keys and power-button) then connect it to a pc and find the launcherpro.apk in /system/app and replace it with the launcher you want to use. I found it more responsive by doing this way then installing a new Launcher-app on the custom one included in the ROM.

This way you can modify the ROM's to use apps that you wan't to use, example other browsers, email- and contact - apps...

Thanks. I had read that in a post here but it didn't sink in.

So is there a particular reason for embedding these apk's in the ROM?
