[APP][UPDATE:18/8] TencentDesktop - MIUI Style Launcher (腾讯桌面 腾讯)

Here is the translation of Tencent's Tencent Desktop.
Note: I didn't make this app, I just translated it using UziTech's Android Translator

What is Tencent Desktop?

Tencent Desktop is a translation of the Chinese Dev's MIUI Style Launcher. it doesn't have an app drawer, has some MIUI icons, supports themes and has iPhone/MIUI lookalike folders. It runs very smoothly on slow phones (such as my LG GT540) and has a dockbar with up to 4 icon support.

Market description, translated:
Tencent Desktop for Chinese users accustomed to fully optimize the user desktop experience is an easy to use, compact, convenient and reliable, the most simple and efficient, beautiful, professional mobile desktop.

Dude, how did you enable transparency? I mean, I already have transparency in my ROM but while in ADW Launcher, I need to disable wallpaper hack in order to have transparent, I looked on the Tools + Preferences and didn't saw anything. If you could get me that, I would be including this into my ROM (of course, with your permission).

You have my permission(I didn't make it originally though)
Download MultiPicture Live Wallpaper from the market & set it to single picture and your wallpaper. Now it's transparent when you set it as live wallpaper

Thanks man, BTW if you give me the decompiled apk I can help you alot, my Dev Computer is broken, and I am using a temporary one without Android Stuff, PM me it or just post it here. I can translate it to Spanish, Portuguse, Italian, French, and finish up English, since I saw some typos.

Pretty nice launcher. Went to market and found another by the same group that works even better for me.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tencent.qqlauncher&feature=search_result

Give it a look, may just find you like this the best!

 

[LudoGris]

Also, can this one be translated?

This looks quite hot as well. Put on my Nexus S 4G and it looks very good, does not have to be a tablet. If it could be translated I think this may be a winning launcher too.

is it any different from this one?

 

[LudoGris]

is it any different from this one?

Yep. It is the same developer but it is already in English and has a app drawer. Basically it takes the smoothness of the MIUI one that the OP translated and adds the drawer to it.

I am really beginning to like this dev.

Thanks OP for translating this and introducing me to their work.
