I tried almost all launchers to get no lag with active live wallpaper, and it was a no go.
Few days ago I found it, so I share.



Costly but amazing amount of smoothness, TSF Shell:

Dude if the original dev (which I'm not sure of) is not on our forum could you post it in the ROM/Dev section with all the details / Should I do it ?

I'll link this ROM along with GLX R ROM in the FAQs, so we'll have 4 ROMs which are currently working for our R and three in the making. :D

Thanks. :)

Is this actually a rom.. From what i can see on the original thread, it looks like a launcher only...

I wonder..:confused: whats great in this launcher. I used this on the ZCLA1+ProjectS rom and i just thought the analog clock widget seemed nice.
Yes, its intuitive but not as snappy as LPP or say ADW.

The only part of lpp or adw that is snappy is application drawer. if you add some widgets, icons you'll notice lag during scrolling between screens.
With the exception of TW launcher , xperia home has imo the smoothest screen scroll. If it only was more customizable...like ADW it would be perfect.

I really like xperia home - really smooth and elegant replacement....however 360 seems laggy and slightly too candy like. Not bad but not my cup of tea.

hmmm...I never saw smother performance than with 360. Don't know maybe some transitions effect seems worse, I use cube effect and it's smooth as SGS2.

Maybe I didn't write right...It's not laggy but transition-effects are slightly too slow :)

Hey nedooo.. 360 is quite a powerful launcher with a lot of dev support. And, so far its great..
1stly it has great set of themes (homescreen and lockscreen) reminiscent of miui.
2ndly some inuitive customizations on the launcher.. like screen lock and default apps settings.

There is a widget called 360 safe..?? its completely in chinese. is there an english version of the same? looks like it can do lot of things like miui backup.

It's in development, and I think dev is looking for someone to translate. So if someone is very good with English and have spare time should offer help :)
