Anyone else notice the home screen redraw? Granted, it is much better/faster than ICS and prior, however JB was supposed to eliminate the issue. For those that don't know what this is, it is that funky shift that you get when coming back to the home screen from another app. It is most noticeable with a wallpaper that is not a solid color, and widgets. For example, if I am at the home screen and pull down the menu bar, go into settings, then hit the home button, I fly back to the home screen quickly, but there is a 1 to 1.5 second shift from the left and then right side as the screen redraws to fit everything.
The question....is this a result of a custom grid size, or is this something else? I am using Jedi with the 5x5 TW launcher. TIA.

Interesting. Are you using any kind of rotation control, or just the default Jedi config?

Have you tried getting off of the 5x5 launcher to see if that fixes it?
i had issues with widgets doing some moving and cut offs when i used that. just a thought.

Yeah, that didnt do it. If you note in the video, the clock widget isn't affected. It is really the wallpaper that is shifting around.

Yeah I tried recreating what you had going on earlier, I had the xda app AND pulled down the notification drawer even, hit the home button, and it was perfectly normal. Does it do it with other wallpapers?

Thanks dude. It looks like it is Jedi Home (TW) that is doing this. I switched to Nova and the problem does not appear. I also just tried deleting a blank home screen page from TW before I switched to Nova, and Jedi Home FC'd. Something is whacky. But I have seen this behavior with other ROM's and launchers too, so...it's a mystery at the moment.

Maybe try doing a clean flash? 3.3 was my very first install of Jedi so I followed all his instructions with full wipe, system wipe etc and have 0 problems.
Might be time, indeed.

Hello,
I just switched to CM9 from CM7 and so far am liking it, I just installed juicedefender to try to save battery so we'll see how that works out. I have a few questions that I couldn't find searching the forums. First, is there any way I can change the app drawer so when I open it it scrolls vertically rather than horizontally? Also, for my background when I try to crop the picture to where it looks normal when the screen is vertical and when the screen is horizontal the top of the picture is cut off, can that be changed? The last thing is the volume seems to be a little lower than it was on CM7, I checked the settings and the volume seems to be up all the way. Are there any apps for CM9 to control overall volume?
Thanks for all of your help,
Jim

There are different types of launchers that do that. CM9 i believe has some volume issues. there is an app called louder hack volume??? but not sure if it works on our phones.
Try Nova or Apex Launcher and mess with the settings.
I use nova launcher with the vertical scroll setting and wouldn't have it any other way on ICS..
The volume was raised awhile ago. It's actually quite loud.

I know what your talking about but im talking if you have a long picture, you would be able to do it the veritcal way and it would show the full picture. Now on ics it is forced to do the box look and you would on be able to see half of it and its all blown up and everything. Not a huge issue just annoying haha

Switch to a different launcher. GO Launcher EX and Apex both support the vertical wallpaper option.
You can also use Image 2 Wallpaper app from the market. It's a little difficult to use imo just because of the UI but it does the job.
Hey I found his nice app for displaying missed called, email and text message notifications on the lock screen somewhat like the iphone. It's setup as a live wall paper to show notifications in the background, that way you don't need to change our your original lockscreen.

That's a screenshot of WidgetLocker, not the stock lockscreen.
Most of the source comes from here: Phandroid
Some of the other applications, such as the Android 4.2 keyboard and Android 4.1 Messaging, I got from various places all over XDA and other sites.
This is for people who can't wait for CM/AOSP and want to get the stock experience!
Most of these are Play Store links also. ALSO, Some may be paid applications!

Just a note: The 4.1 Messaging app does have some issues. Some contacts don't appear as they should, just numbers. And I think MMS was broken?

How did you get that to work? I tried setting the 'Lock timer' in 'Lock screen' under system settings to various settings other than 'immediately' as well as 'power button instantly locks' to on or off to no avail. All that happens is when I turn the phone on, it just immediately shows the app I recently had open.

It's possible we are describing two different use case scenarios. Do you have 'enable security lock' enabled in holo locker settings?
I would like it so that I can specify a lock timer in system settings to only bring up the pattern unlock after a set amount of time while at the same time always bringing up the holo-locker screen when I press the power button to turn the screen on (before the pattern/pin unlock comes up). As far as I know, the built-in slide to unlock won't show when you have a pattern or pin lock enabled (non-rooted). Sounds confusing when typing it out, does what I'm trying to describe make sense to anyone?
Not sure. I just cleared all my credentials and got the swipe back.

OK, I don't know what I did, but it finally started working the way I wanted to. Strange, I tried rebooting, waiting a while between turning the phone off/on, different setting configs and nothing seemed to work. Thanks anyway, just glad it works now.
