I dislike only one thing about it, the bubbles around the apps in the app drawer.

Me too, I hope this a beta launcher they should make it more sense like with a little bit touchwiz. And maybe a couple of screen transitions, vertical cube effect would look nice for the app drawer.

Try clearing the defaults on the launcher you're on in settings > apps > manage apps. Then just hit the home button and you should have the option to select the launcher.

Use an app called home switcher ... Free on market.

Agreed as well. The launcher looks extremely outdated and really ugly.

I liked it. Needs way more customization. It has no graphical acceleration though. Until they put that in it will be a fail in my book. Might as well use sense capped at 30fps.

Not a good software. I saw the screenshots and thought the 'minimalist' interface and design would be great but as it turned out, the launcher was slow, buggy and had absolutely no customization features (aside from changing the tab colors). The launcher felt sluggish going back to the main home screen and appeared to have no graphical acceleration. I had to eventually turn off the animation to get acceptable performance.
My advice? Avoid. Btw, I did not get a refund.

Definitely not usable in its current form. Its slow - if it was smooth as butter I would have kept it installed for at least a few days to try it out.
Also if they don't make this free for Samsung handsets I think that would be really crappy of them.

Fancy Screen UI Rotation Orientation..??

Ive seen this on the new Dual Core Motorola phones. Is there anyway we can get this on the Epic Touch 4G? More clarity..The screen ui rotation like the iPhone. That would be super sweet!! Thanks..

here is a link...at around 2 min you will see the rotation transitions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QYQtpzEl7A&feature=related

With all the fancy transition effects with the Go Launcher I'm running, I'm surprised there's no rotation transition effects.

On the OGEvo MikG has adopted this in his Tom somehow. Maybe someone can ask him on how we do this for out phone.

any updates?

Talked to a buddy of mine about this...
There's an app called spare parts that lets you add different animations and transitions to the phone.
He commented that for android 1.5 and maybe 1.6 you could add fancy rotation animations, but for later versions it won't.
It's also not an option in go launcher, though there are tons of other animations.
Maybe this no longer exists in stock android? Maybe HTC had to reinvent the wheel and add lots of custom code to make this happen for their sense UI?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App

Its in ICS, so I'm sure it will be ported over when we get a rom.

Bump.
So more "Spin" and less brash.
I hope we can get it ported over, looks sweet.

Anyone Having Issues With Go Locker's IceCream Theme?

I'm currently running Calk's E4GT ROM v2.5 and being that it comes with Go Launcher instead of Launcher Pro, decided to give it a shot, finally. After deselecting the screen indicator from showing all the time its starting to look pretty good. Only issues Im having is that Ive installed the Go Locker plug-in, who's default theme and slider theme work fine when selected but when selecting the IceCream theme that I've downloaded off the Market, it goes back to the default theme. Is this a known issues on our phones? Any helpful feedback is greatly appreciated!

I am using the Fourkey theme on strongsteve's ROM. I just tested the ICS theme lock and mine is sticking. I didn't mess with the home lock so I tend to have to turn off and re-enable it after reboot but it is sticking. I like it better without time and date

LCD Resoloution?

I used LCD resoloution and it worked...kind of...
It changed the resoloution but i couldnt move the apps out of a certain boundary.
Anyone know how i can get it to work? i'd love to put more apps on one page.

That's controlled by you launcher not lcd density. Go into your launcher settings if on one that has options and find where it says rows and columns. Up the number for more columns(sideways) or more rows(up and down).

quick question about adw launcher though, does it randomly hide your status bar too? (the bar on top withh the time / battery life.

That should be an option in ADW. On a home screen, press Menu -> Preferences. Then it should be pretty clear, if i remember.

May have a swipe gesture set to hide/show status bar and if you slide finger will hide status bar swipe up or down worth a try..also in launchr settings...

For future reference, this is a limitation of using a custom resolution with the Market. There's certain resolutions that work, and most market apps will only install with these resolutions. LDPI(120), MDPI(160), HDPI(240), XHDPI(320). Anything else will give you "This app is incompatible with your device". Sometimes you can get around it, other times you cant.

Yeah its adw sometimes it will drain it but go into your running services. Settings>Applications>Running Services. And turn off some things that are running like DRM Services, Sns (if you don't use facebook), .com.samsung.info. android core apps, google services. Etc when your not using your phone these things don't need to be running but will reappear when you need them.
Also quit turning your phone on to look at the battery it won't sleep right if your constantly waking it up....

Holo locker

I am not affiliated with this app at all. I'm just sharing.
I'm currently running MROM with holo launcher and this app, holo locker. It's an AOSP jellybean lockscreen, and it runs pretty well. For those who are still using GB, this is a great way to make your phone look and feel up to date. Enjoy.

Runs very smoothly, does yours have delay where it shows the homescreen for a brief moment before the lockscreen appears?

Frustrated with bot Holo and Go Lockers. It seems like at first they work fine (maybe not, this might happen from the begining), but then the OEM/AOSP lockscreen starts showing up before the Holo/Go lockscreen. I've uninstalled both until I find out how to fix that. Send emails, but haven't got any replies yet.

What rom are you on right now, and can I assume you set the lockscreen security to none in the rom before applying your custom lockscreen?

I was on CM7 and don't remember ever seeing a way to turn off the lock screen altogether.
Now I'm on miui and using magic locker, working fine.
I think it may have something to do with choosing the locker as the " default launcher"
The magic locket makes it apparent that you need to do that for it work properly.
