Jelly Bean 4.1 Launcher Now Available for Non-Jelly Bean Phones

3

On the lighter side of this Friday, looks like an awesome developer has gotten the Jelly Bean launcher ported to non-Jelly Bean devices. I was wondering when a JB launcher was going to hit the Play Store. Takes an artist some time to create some art. Come to find though, is that another team has also released the JB awesomeness in the store.

That artist, Tim Hutt. Now he is not the first to tackle this launcher port, Team Syndicate did as well. I wish I would have been paying more attention to the Play Store for these launchers, but I think the fact that I got JB already ported on my phone I felt no need to. I apologize for that my friends. Ran into the video that is shown below, which does a quick run through of this launcher. For good measure though, I will post both links to Tim Hutt’s launcher, and Team Syndicate’s. The choice I leave to you guys, because I have not tried either of these launchers. Check out the video and choose which launcher is best. Let us know which one you think is better.

    Question: why does it require an artist when ALL the images for the UI are available in the SDK? I feel like it is more of a developers job to extract those images and produce the launcher app. An artist should not be needed. Google provides the UI elements for all screen sizes for every iteration of the OS. Just saying . . .
