As I was impressed by the development and hit of Apocalypse on Ace forum I decided to install it's port to my Gio (my first custom ROM). But I was disappointed. The Port was not like the original ROM on Ace forum. The app drawer interface was so different. It had to slide vertically but on ace it was horizontally. In the Menus there was no transparency to see the wallpaper and last but not the least I could not stop that annoying vibration whenever I pressed that back button.
Are all ports like this?? So different from original??
You can customize settings like you want, just open holo launcher settings and choose drawer settings, there you can set transparent and horizontal instead of vertical (choose drawer style and then select Horizontal paginated), effects like you want . It's not only the drawer, you can customize settings for desktop, docks and much more to stop vibration for back button, open phone settings > Sound > scroll down and deselect haptic feedback.

How to open Holo launcher settings??? :-/
And there was another problem when I open any application such as calculator and then press back button it should take me back to the app drawer interface but instead it takes me to the home screen And what about the task manager?? there was already a task manager in my previous Stock ROM (2.3.6) but this ROM does not have any.
It it important to factory reset the phone after installation??

You can open Holo settings by pressing menu button on home screen and select Launcher settings. I don't use apocalypse rom, but i use holo launcher too, and i don't think it should take you to home screen when pressing back button, someone else might know why it happens so and custom roms doesn't include task managers but you can go to phone settings > Apps > running services and there you could see what apps are running and background apps, ram but you could also install task manager apps like advanced task killer from google play if you want. It's always good to do a factory reset after roms installation.

I just checked and there are no launcher settings in menu. I think this ROM does not have Holo launcher as I can see launcher pro installed in this ROM and I cant figure out its settings... Do u know where its settings are??
Actually after my first installation of ROM after applying patches I did a factory reset but on its rebot it was showing cyanogen mod animation again and again and not going ahead. So i installed the ROM again and didn't risked doing factory reset again..... What could be the reason??

Oh sorry i thought you were using holo launcher because ace apocalypse rom are using it if it is launcher pro then you can't switch to horizontal unless you install another launcher that has horizontal drawer :/ what do you mean with cyanogenmod, do you want to install another rom to cm7 or are you still on apocalypse but trying to apply patches? do factory reset before and after flashing roms. And when you want to apply patches, open cwm recovery > mount & storage > mount /System then flash patches, be sure to apply right patches.
I was saying after installing ROM and all other patches I factory reset my phone but on the restart my phone was stuck on boot loop. Why is that so??
What the clockworkmod recovery version does you have on your phone? do you have any M, L or V as your phone model example GT-S5660M or GT-S5660L?

I have this rom MooDeD ICS 90.2 on my phone, we can I switch between the two home screen (Xperia Home and Trebuchet)?
Xperia is currently set as the default home!
pls Help me , Thanks!
I do not understand your question.
If you ask if you can switch between home and trebuchet, yes you can if both are installed in your phone. press home and choose default. if home is set default and you want to uncheck this, go to : settings -> apps -> tab all -> scroll to home and "clear defaults"
Thanks for your Help

Well, generaly it's stable enough for everyday use, but there are some lags.
F.E. - launcher theme reset (affected after system restart)
Haven't tried to disable all kind of animations, but I think it might solve the problem.
Also its' performance is lower than CM10 builds.
Personally I don't like MIUI, so I switched back to Quarx builds.
Works fine except for Cellular Signal, i can't get phone signal, network manual search doesn't work. is any way to solve this? like a baseband patch
Hello,
I just got my One Plus 3 a day ago and I have setup Nova Launcher as my Home Launcher. Installed my necessary apps. For some reason I cannot figure out, everytime I go into Settings, when I press the Home button, it asks what launcher to use as default. I always select Nova Launcher but when I go back to settings, it happens again. What is wrong with my Settings?
I have read that some apps act as a launcher so I installed Launcher Switcher and found that there are 3 launchers to choose from, OnePlus Launcher, Nova Launcher and File Manager. What is this File Manager App? I tried to go into Settings > App > File Manager but I cannot disable this.
Also I have read some apps that when they uninstalled those apps, the problem went away. For example is the Hotmail app. I don't have this app installed and so far, I just notice the problem after going in Settings App. Also, I have read that Nova Launcher will detect which app is causing the problem but I cannot see that on my side. No notification by Nova Launcher informing me of problematic apps that is causing the default home launcher to reset frequently.
I am not rooted, no custom recovery installed but I think my bootloader is unlocked because when I power ON my phone, I get the "It cannot be trusted" thing on boot up. OS version is 3.1.3
Thanks for the help.
[UPDATE]
1. I also encounter the problem after switching apps via Recents App button. For example I open Facebook, when I press Home button, its fine. I open Spotify, and press Home, its still fine. When I access Facebook via Recent Apps button, and then click Home, the problem occurs. Please help.
You can make your choice of launcher as default app by selecting in settings - home and select your default launcher
I had this exact same problem.
Your device has been flashed with a an unofficial rom (thats why you get that warning when switching the phone on for 5 seconds).
It was most probably done by whoever you bought the phone from. They usually do it to move from Hydrogen to Oxygen, but in the process they load in some crapware.
You need to flash your device to stock Oxygen using the official Rom.

you can reinstall the firmware from official oneplus website and after flashing the latest firmware, go into developer options (you have to enable them first by going to about phone and tapping the build no. 7 times, then enable advance reboot and usb debugging.) do not personalise your phone or set it up. reboot into bootlader and using adb and fastboot run the command "fastboot oem lock" this will erase all your data and reset your phone again and you wont get the splash screen message again.
After months of trying I managed to change launcher on RKa701 device.
As owners of this device already know, another launcher can be installed on this device but you cannot set it as default because it will stuck, or wont launch or will not be displayed correctly. It simply conflicts with factory launcher and make unit unusable.
Factory launcher is very ugly but the problem with it is not just that , but unit needs it because radio, music, bluetooth and other apps wont work without it. As you can swap factory music app with another one you cant do that with radio and bluetooth.
Im not responsible if you mess something with your device. Proceed at your own will.
So here we go:
1. Root your device with latest kingroot ( i used latest 5.2 version) . Dont worry we will uninstall it later
2.When rooted it will ask for all kind of permission allow
3. With root explorer or some other app go to system/priv app and make a backup of launcher2.apk-copy it somwhere.
4. Download apk file of some launcher (can be any-we wil install our main launcher later) and put it in system/priv app. I used nova and renamed it to "launcher2" just in case. Install nova.
5. reboot or (if you want to uninstall root for good-choose factory reset) . After boot up nova launcher should be loaded instead main launcher. But WE ARE NOT FINISHED.
If you try to start radio, bluetooth or music app you will find that it cant be done because you removed factory launcher. The good thing is it should be booted, but it is not necessary for it to work in the background all the time.
6. So, install launcher2 that you backed up in step 3. It is now installed but it is not system app anymore.
7.Now. If you dont want to stick with nova launcher install the one you will use. I find car launcher pro best one out there.
8. Now, from google play download "autostart and Stay" app from google play. Install it.
9. Set service toggle of "autostart and Stay" to on.
11. In the app settings check "smart service on boot" and "pooling interval" on 5 seconds.
10. By usign "+" sign add launcher2.apk and launcher you choosed to use. On launcher2 make sure that "autostop" on boot completed is choosed and for the launcher you choosed "autostart" and "stay".
11. If you didnt do it already, using system app remover uninstall kingroot.
11. Reboot.
Thats it.
What we did?
With "autostart and Stay" we loaded but then stopped factory launcher and by checking "stay" we ensured that launcher we choose to use cant be stopped in the background by any other process-If you want you can choose "persist" instead of "stay" and set pooling interval on 60sec. It means that after using any other app more than 60 sec , you will be kicked out on home screen, but other apps you started wont be killed. It means that you can start radio or music, choose your track or tune and it will be working in the background even after you have been kicked to home screen. If you want to watch video, just extend pooling interval. 60 sec is enough for everyday use.
Thats it. Bye
