Launcher2.apk - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When can we get it working?

When your finished making it work.

I thought we had it working already?
I put out one on my rom that worked, but had some bugs at the all apps list, but that's all fixed now.
I won't be releasing it because 1.) there's way too many roms out there, I really don't feel like making one and 2.) I have philosophical differences with the roms that are out there (I don't like my work on half-baked, crash-prone builds).

Look at rogro82's modified launcher
It works on Hero builds? Ace!
ahhh... maybe not, just disabled my phone! going back to previous backup
Are you talking about JACHero Superlite versions? They don't have Rosie, but are still built off the Hero builds so you have flash and multi-touch and whatnot. Uses a launcher, not sure how many screens tho. Might wanna check it out.
Yeah that's what I'm using ... only a 3-screen launcher though, hence this thread!

Launcher Pro in Market! Fastest smoothest launcher ever!

Hey guys, I was looking through the nexus forum and found a post for Launcher Pro. It's available in the market for free and it's super fast. Check it out! The swiping is ridiculous and it works on the G1 MT3G
www.launcherpro.com
hmmm, just installed it and it is fast. Not nearly as many options as ADW but it sure is fast. Have setup all my screens again but will give it a try for a while to see how it fairs.
Wohoo...
Multitouch pinch to preview and the little bumps almost make the sense experience complete
This is crazy smooth! My only complaint is that it FC's when I try to pick a wallpaper from it. And cyanogen says that Launcher2 is not stable for our phones, but this is 17 times better. Anyone know the adb code to make it stay in memory? I'm not having any issues with it but I still like to have it in memory=p
Awesome stuff!
Requesting: scrollbar in the drawer; apps assigning for / editing for the shortcuts.
HOLY CRAP this app works flawlessly on my cm5t5 g1.
I would like for there to be more options though.
Great job so far mang, keep up the great work!!
Very very nice indeed!
Shame that I can't edit the icons using Bettercut and/or restore a previous Home-screen arrangement using MyBackUpPro. Without these things I will have to use ADW's Launcher for now. Which is not a punishment by itself
[Edit] With the "new" version (the one with the appdrawer handler still visible when you open the drawer) this IS possible (editting using BetterCut), nice job!
What does it actually do for a CM5.0.7t5 phone? Has Cyanogen weighed in on this?
hi there!
awesome launcher, smooth as hell.
But i wonder if theres an option to let in rest in memory.
I experience some wait time when im getting out of apps, so that the homescreen has to rebuild itself. with the default cm5t5 launcher theres the option in spareparts that makes it stay in memory so it was there very fast after quitting apps.
cheers
Using this launcher with cm5.0.7 test5 and its fantastic. Im also running the overclock kernel at 652 and its smooth!
Question though, wouldn't the spare parts option to keep launcher in memory apply to whatever launcher you are using?
Weird, it does not show up in the market for me...
I am using htcclays's csdi. I know that rom was from overseas originally... Does it mess up the market too?

I think its 2.0+ only
its just a launcher. uninstall and install it like a normal app. its not some system hack, i duno why some of you are worried about it. dont even need to nandroid, it doesnt mess up any system stuff. doesnt even require root access. it's a pretty smooth launcher. adw is trying to rework his to make it smooth as well.

yes it works, i set LauncherPro as default launcher when asked when phone booted, then i used SpareParts option to leave launcher in memory and it worked. Now when i close apps im instantly in my homescreen without having to reload it every time. works like a charm =)

That's what I suspected and that exactly what I did and saw. Then I see people questioning it and thought "maybe they know something I don't". Oh well..

I don't think so, otherwise people with sense roms could push spare parts into their roms and make the option work. I do know that there is a thread on doing just that in general, but I'm too lazy to search now=p
so im guessin' the LauncherPro isn't for 1.6 fones, like the G1?
^ yeap, see my post above.
Been using it since yesterday on G1/CM5.0.7t5 and it's mighty fast.
Excellent work!
A 5 column launcher would be nice though, if it doesn't affect performance...

And have something go wrong, brick my phone, and have only myself, and you, to blame. No thanks. Better safe than sorry. Go troll something else.
With my limited understanding of the flashing process and all of this, I don't take risks. Besides, no one on here is going to be accountable for bad advice given and replace the phone there crappy advice bricked. If you can't give advice without a disclaimer, then shut up about me asking questions like this.

[ROM] Geared Romage v.02 (WIP)

This is my first attempt at Rom development. After flashing many Roms from great developers here on XDA I have decided to try my hand at it. I'm sure you might ask what's different about this Rom compared to others you have already used. All I can say is this, I have taken the elements that I have grown to love from my favorite Roms and Themes and baked it into something I can be happy with. I hope you will be happy too!
-This is a work in progress-
Everything is not quite what I want yet, I still have a ways to go.
Link is in 2nd post!
Here is what I have so far
I am working on converting all green elements to red- not quite there yet but close.
-Features-
Deodexed and Zipaligned
Bloatware removed
This is based on the latest build 3.26.605.1
My thanks go out to all the great developers that have brought us this far!
Specifically I would like to thank
lllboredlll for pointing me in the right direction for the "Notification Menu Power Control Widget" you can find this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853667
snq- for the power menu reboot option http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776495
Disclaimer- Flash at your own risk
Full wipe is recommended
To do list-
Convert all green elements to red -still missing some png's
5 column app drawer
Most recent apps in notification
Theme sense lock screen bar to red
Theme rosie dock bar to red
Change log-
v.01 For testing
v.02
Geared Romage v.02
Nice! I've yet to try and cook up my own rom, but I'd imagine it's a huge learning experience. Looking forward to seeing more of your releases as they continue to get better and better.
I love the look if it good work

So I was just thinking and the notifications will probably be a little too "filled" with the recent apps there too. I personally use my phone alot while im usb tethering and more stuff pushing the notifications downward would be very annoying to me. Just a little thought i had.

Well that was just a thought I had. I am working on a few things right now. The recent apps idea was one, but you are right, so i may look at some other ideas.
How is it working so far?
Nice ROM, I Haven't Installed It Yet. But I Have Two Questions:
1. Can We Change The Font In Your ROM Into The System Default?
And Two
2. Can We Change The Battery Icon? I Personally Don't Like The Number Percentage On The Battery.
Other Than That, I Like The Look Of Your ROM, Good Job!
I Went Ahead And Installed The ROM Last Night, Overall Quick And Snappy ROM.
The Only Things That I Didn't Like Was The Themed Market, Also It May Just Be Me But My Battery Drained Pretty Quickly On This ROM Which I Found Strange. Not Sure Why.
Other Than That, Great And Snappy ROM. I Look Forward To Seeing What You Cook Up Next For This ROM
I am working on a Theme port atm so that is why I have been so slow for an update. You should see this Theme this weekend as long as I can get the original Themer to reply with a go ahead permission. I am also working on some new updates to this Rom so hopefully if all goes well you should see an update to it as well.

The font is something I had for myself, you can get those from many places. If you have trouble locating them just PM me and I will point you in the right direction.

I have been getting great battery life, but I don't know what apps you are using so I can't diagnose what the problem is. I will work on fixing the market theme this weekend before my next update. I appreciate your comments, it only makes me better at this!

[Q] Windows Phone 7 Theme

Hey, can anybody point me in the direction of a theme for any of the i897/i9000 roms (not CM7, MIUI, or AOSP) that is based off Windows Phone 7. I understand I can get Launcher 7, apps, etc; but I would like a theme.
I don't want a windows phone, so don't say "Get a Windows Phone if you want it" or anything to that regard, I just like the look.
Thanks in advance.
There aren't any for a non
Aosp i don't think. Maybe launcher pro or adw with a theme is the closest you'll get.
Why?
Why would anybody want a Windows theme on an Android? Just saying!!!

I didn't need a new launcher. I have launcher 7. I just needed themed apps/framework, but I decided to screw it.
Themed app icons? Or the entire app ui themed?

I wouldn't need themed icons when I said I had Launcher 7. I created this thread solely to see if anyone has made a theme, or could make one.
I know you decided to scrap the idea, but if you change your mind or someone stumbles upon this thread in the future (and the fact that I typed all this out and found all the links before I saw that you didn't want to do it anymore) I'll post this anyway.
I did this a few months back with some decent results. Keep in mind this is Gingerbread based as ICS didn't exist when I tried. YMMV on an ICS port.
I used MIUI with this theme. The project has been discontinued, but it may still work with more recent builds.
I used Launcher 7 (Free|Donate) but you may want to try out these apps which have recently become free. I have only seriously used Launcher 7, but previous versions seemed (I DID NOT TEST, this is just what it seemed like) to drain the battery a bit more than I liked. Again, this was months ago and not scientific and the battery "drain" was not serious.

I will release the first version of the rom with 2 bugs will be solved, but as there are not big bugs, the rom is perfectly usable, I'll tell you what bugs:
1 - After installing the rom with the wipes, the initial configuration will of an error, and goes straight to the launcher to configure the account settings just go to "accounts" Simple!
2 - The menu that appears when loading the menu key, which has the option to add, settings, preferences etc., part of the text is poorly formatted, but it is still there and so we can see You do not notice it: p
That's not a bug:
To get a sense of the dock with the black background as in the images, follow these steps:
- Menu key 'preferences' Configuration of senna mod "Number of docks: choose two docks.
Go to the launcher and choose to dock two by swiping your finger sideways on top of it and personilaza with the shortcuts you want
HTC icons coming soon, some missin,sory, hope you enjoy

based on ROM ZEUS?
ur rom was name techno changed??
Nope, it's another rom, koila stopped Tecno rom... He said it some time ago and his thread was closed.
Now, this is another rom from him, but with a different name and a different look.
koila, looks great!!!
BTW, am unable to spot significance basic difference between your ROM and the ravenous 5.1 by robin.raven, if any??
it's like almost equal. get somethings unique, cause having two very similar ROM is confusing for the user.
hope you understand what i meant.
try and get more polished b/w look. take a sense framework & system ui, decompile it, study it and implement .xml changes and swap the png's.
the ROM looks promising.

Hi Achyut.
Yes, I understood what you meant and it is true, is similar to ravenious, but only on the outside, but not used ravenous as the base for my rom, I started again with V20o and was changing to look like the sense, only used the system.apk it to have less work
In short, it was I who added the widgets, walpapers, launcher, PNG's changed, etc. and removed the widget because it is paid and locker replaces the original lockscreen LG ...
I think the revinous no tweaks and this has and in the next version comes with even more tweaks in build.prop, on antutu i get score of 2500. ahah
I also used the theme of tim van der Horn as the basis for the rom, no files of raveniuos
Thanks
Who has tried the rom? Leave feedback here please

....one suggestion though, u can use the my PRADA systemUI and Framework-res.
take a look at the screenshots, if you feel u might implement it, temme, i'll share it.
there is a small glitch of non-centered clock (very easy to solve).....it was done ENTIRELY for personal use, since it was based on v6.28 ZEUS; and i had not shared it anywhere

Hi koila !
I've been using this ROM since 5 days, and I'm getting a lot of touchscreen freeze and a lot of ghost clicks.
The only way to resolve this is to lock phone then unlock it...
But anyway, this ROM is so nice looking
