[Q]How is ADW Launcher on your Note?

---

Been looking for a launcher(still am actually) because I didn't really like the stock version. I tried ADW but for some reason it's quite laggy on my Galaxy Note. FYI, I only have 3-4 widgets at most and mainly shortcuts.

Try adw ex.. No lags for me..
Or change the transition

I'm on adw ex as well and it's inconsistent. Sometimes dog slow, sometimes nice and snappy. I use it mainly for functionality, and the lag is no more than mildly annoying.

I've used ADW ex on my Galaxy S, my S2 and my note. Always loved it. Just recently switched to Go launcher ex. Almost like it better. It has a couple of neat features that ADW doesnt have. But ADW was never laggy for me....

I changed the homescreen transition to zoom.. It's silky smooth. The default cube is laggy

And I removed the bounce

Then it is as smooth as tw, if not more smooth

If your Note isn't rooted almost all other Launchers will lag. The more widgets you have, the more lag. I think it's an issue with the Rom.

Rooting or not will not affect the launchers whether they lag or not.

It's whether hardware acceleration is being used for the launcher. Tw is hardware accelerated by default. Adw is partially hardware accelerated

Use Launcher Pro its smooth as butter.

Go launcher for me. Silky smooth in 240 dpi.
