Good afternoon folks. I am working on a T999 GS3. I am running Dandroid rom and have been looking for a launcher zip file that could give me expanded desktop to add more apps to the home screen and app drawer. I found this LauncherUX_5x5_.XXALJI.zip and it seems to work ok but didn't know if it can be tweaked some more. I am looking to see if the all apps button could be moved to the middle, also to have 6 apps across on the home screen as well. Also I am attaching a screenshot of a page showing that the number page is being covered and the dots that show how many pages you have are at the bottom. Could this be moved up like the original touchwiz format? I am running 4.1.2 android. Hope someone could help me?
Thanks in advance,
mr wizard

Running dc3.5 with launcher pro. I've got the search widget on my home screen and after the first time I use it after a reboot it jumps to the top of the screen and doesn't work at all anymore till I reboot. The search key will bring up the keyboard to enter text but won't actually enter anything into the text field. Any ideas why this is happening? I'm sure it's an issue with launcher pro because I was having the same problem when I was running the widget and lp on dc 3.2.x before I lost my old evo (rip )
Swyped from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm currently running the most recent Fresh ROM and using LP Plus and don't have any issues with the Google search widget. I can enter text and also the voice to text works almost flawlessly on it. HTH
lucky you. I'm gonna try to uninstall and reinstall both again.
Also, I've switched roms to Ava6 and i'm still experiencing the same problem.
fixed
I had the same problem and finally came up with an easy fix. I know its going to sound weird but bear with me.
First hold down on the searchbar and drag it to the trashcan. Now go to another page, yes it does have to be another page. Clear a desktop row that is not the top row. Hold down on the blank row and add the Google search widget there. Now hold down on it and move it back to where you originally had it. And fixed......
Hope it works for you.

Google search brought me here... I can confirm that this does seem to work; I'm using LP v0.7.6.0 on a Samsung Captivate SGH-I897 running leaked froyo build
I had this same issue, reinstalling LP fixed it
Im also having this issue. Ill try those strategies. So far moving the bar around hasn't helped. Running leaked Froyo on Samsung Captivate.
Edit: Problem solved by using "Google Search" widget rather than "Search" widget. They look and preform the same. Why I have two of those and what the material differences are, I'm not sure! (maybe one is an updated form and one is legacy)
Do you guys think when you re-installed LP you may have switched with search widget you used?
youre crazy widget moving black magic method worked!!!!
I can also confirm the work-around. The new widget no longer animates to the top.
Hey there Guys,
since having my Gnex I am part of the people who unlocked/rooted/flashed Custom Roms on their Smartphone. XDA has nearly been the only helpful source when getting all this done so thanks alot for this in advance.
I first tried the Trickster Rom but then i began to fall in love with the Paranoid Android ROM.
Version 0.9b works perfectly fine for me but yesterday i decided to install the update and then i got so many dissappointing issues that i decied to just go back to 0.9b.
Hence I am not allowed to post in the original developers thread I hope somebody around here can help me or forward the issues in the dev thread:
Tablet Mode.....How do I get my landscape view back working...i was not able to find the option in the Trebuchet Menu
Dock appearance......Is it really now that you can not have mulitple Docks anymore? Moreover is the icon number now fixed to five?
Ifanyone knows how to get this done or telly me that it simplyis not meant to be possible anymore I would appreciate.
Thanks alot in advance

For landscape: I'd check Settings > Accessibility and make sure Auto-rotate screen is checked. Then go to Settings > Launcher > General and check Auto-rotate screen there. It works for me.
For dock appearance: I think the dock customization doesn't come with Trebuchet (or at least in this version), if you want that, try Apex or Nova.
Thank you verymuch for your useful information.
Meanwhile I am on 1.1 and nearly everything is fine since i decided to use NOVA launcher.
I have another question....
How is it possible to get a 3x4 view of the widgets like this:
h9.abload.de/img/untitled-1yagbn.png
mine is displayed as 2x3....
how can I set this for me?

Hey guys just got an internation note 2. loving it so far!!
My favorite thing was this little grey half circle on the right edge of the phone. When you click it it gives you several quick shortcuts to common apps. Now it is missing though? Where did it go and how do I reactivate it, also what is it? Is it a samsung thing or just an android 4.1 feature. Any help in understanding this new feature would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

It is multiview option ( to open 2 apps at the same time). It is activated by pressing the back button for 2-3 seconds. You can drag 2 apps from the sidebar to the screen and have 2 running apps then.
It's the multiscreen dooda. Hold back arrow to make it come and go.
You can drag any of the shown apps to the top or bottom screen along with the another from the list. Maps and email at the same time for example.

Hey guys, I just installed the CM10 custom rom for JB 4.1 on my htc one v. Everything works great, but I just can't stand having that ugly Google search bar on top of the home screen.
I don't want to use GoLauncher or anything like that to remove it, so I was hoping you guys know a mod that'll help.
I've tried installing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741038 but it seems I've gotten ahead of myself, and broke something with this mod, so the phone keeps restarting after 5sec of run time. The mod is for 5x4 grid sized phones... and I kinda ignored that thinking it'll work fine :>
Please help me find a working mod, or a solution to end the restarts
Lol easy
Settings
Launcher
Home screen
Deselect the persistent search bar
Now come to ur home screen chick and hold the Google search bar and remove like any other widget
And there ur done

Hi,
I am new to Androids and I have tried to search my problem before posting but cannot find the right thread.
I have just installed the 4.2.2 Paranoid Android to my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 I317, all I cannot quite figure out is how to delete the extra/empty home screens to the left and right.
I have tried pinching, double tapping, and holding the screen but none of those give me an option to remove the excess pages. I only like to use 1 page.
I have googled this issue and some just say to install another launcher, but i just want to keep it pretty the way it is and also to prevent unnecessary battery usage.
Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks a million!
From home screen press menu button and then edit page.you will see all the screens just drag the ones you dont want to trash.

What you need to do is go to you home screen and push the home button (only button on the front of the phone. All of your pages will show up. Ling press on the ones you dont eant and then drag th to the top of the screem where the "x" is. This will work. What launcher are you using? To each there own but I recommend nova

Hello
I've recently installed Paranoid Android 3.15 on my Galaxy SIII i9300. I'm also looking for a way to delete homescreen pages. I've tried all tips above, but I can't seem to find it.
I'm using the default launcher.

try again

This worked for me
