This MOD is very great for Galaxy S, Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] racerboy3801:
Brilliant. Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] fraencko:
Very nice thing with the Xperia Launcher is that you can create a homescreen folder by just tapping and dragging an app icon on the homescreen onto another icon.

Will try the launcher right now. First feature request: Can you re-add the other languages? Think there is not much sense in removing them. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 1944:
Any version with full languages? :)

Tnx
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rajuki:
Nice one. There was a need for fresh feel to the launchers and this one is pretty good one.

One issue though, the sorting is lost once you restart the launcher. I prefer the alphabetical sorting but after restarting the launcher or exiting it through Task manager retorted back to Free sort.

Otherwise, it looks great!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nipuna:
Just ran the apk on JVK2.3.3 -- and it works beautifully... Pretty awesome. Thanks!!!

If only someone could port timescape as well :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MAMBO04:
Great work, looks really professional and the folders stand out. Lovely :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] perry_lam:
followed method 1 and didn't work out:confused:

can anyone help???
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] quangmach:
Your work is awesome !! much appreciate.. still have some small issues such as not remember app drawer position & not remember sorting after restart the launcher

ill report more after time of using
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I am no sure what makes it forget the default orders. On my friends SGS it refuses to save but on mine I don't seem to have that problem. I will re-add the languages, only removed because it started off as a private project. The launcher should however work on all HDPI devices with 800x480 pixel ration, but I cannot be sure. Try it out and report back the result (the possibility of damage is non-existent as long as you don't remove all other launchers) ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] quangmach:
I have some more issues, one is when the folder name too long,the text is centred,it should display from the beginning instead of that.. more is i have some issue with display of 1 widget, the widget corners are cut to fit the row,not all widgets but atleast i saw one now,its normal on TWlauncher.

And serious issues is when backing up data with Titanium Backup,then restore data,it made a dead space on launcher,those where widget placed before now is invisible,can't remove or place a new widget to that area anymore

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Tested the three issues you mentioned and I see what you mean about the restore data problem and I will look into that but I am suspecting I can't do anything about that. The folder name too long it gets centred does not happen for me, might just be a temporary bug. Have you tried restarting? What is the widget giving you problems? Tested a few and could not duplicate the error. The last question is if you kill the application does it reset your sorting order and if you open another activity does it reload all apps? These things happened to a m8 and I believe they are all related to something about not being able to save the preferences. Remember that this Sony's doing and could be hard to fix for our phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nesquix:
don't work at all, when i copy it on my system/app, i reboot, and then, nothing.. i can't see it. Home switcher don't change anything too

so i can't try it !

i"m on JS8 ROM deodexed with Gingerbread Launcher.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I will post an update zip and a new release soon that you can try.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] br3tty:
Silly question... did you rename the file to just ArcLauncher.apk (as remove all the commas etc?)

Didn't show on my phone until I deleted all that stuff.

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
That could be, I will change the file on the internet so that it is just ArcLauncher.apk. Thank you for pointing that out. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ImraanK:
Been having problems with Android killing arc launcher under low memory conditions(froyo + arc as-well)....

So i after searching i found this build prop tweak.. Seems to be working :)

You need to edit you "system/build.prop" via ".prop editor" in SGS Tools..

Menu-> Free edit mode

Add this to the bottom of the build.prop

Save.

Reboot and done.

Hey a great job with the launcher :)

Very very imprressive.

I m even less then a noob in java :D

But I can give u source code of the arc launcher if u wish :)

I mean I cn give .java files not .smali files
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Would love to but I don't have them. I need to decompile each file and get the smali (dalvik bytecode) code. I then create a new android java app that includes the code that I need and then decompile that to smali. After this I merge the two the best I can and result! Sometimes I use dex2jar and then jar2java but the results are not very accurate, but good for comparison and error fixing.

*Edit: Sorry misread your post. How can you have the Java code? If it is not illegal I would love to have it! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nesquix:
yes, but my js8 froyo rom don"t see it at all ! ..strange, permissions are good, the apk is really in /system/app.. the name is just ArcLauncher.apk, i have rebooted twice, tried Home Switcher etc, but it's like if the apk is not copied in my system folder! absolutly strange.

sorry for my english, i'm a french geek ^^
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] katsuru:
If arc launcher had a 3D app drawer like Launcher pro has ( Smooth as butter ) It would be my dream launcher! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
3D sideways or like the stock ginger? I personally prefer sideways, easier navigation. Did you try method 2. Might work better. I will try and find all the problems through logcat but for now hang on=).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] katsuru:
Like ginger. I hate sideswipe app drawers :P lancherpro is since day one my fav because of its appdrawer. Just awesome
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ImraanK:
Just curious.. I just installed the apk normally.. so now its sitting in data.. any particular reason why it should sit in system?

Sent via my Android powered Galaxy S
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I had issues with it sitting in data because it was not given enough permissions and therefore could not save any preferences.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kieeps:
fell in love with this launcher the second i installed it :D the animations and smoothness is great! have been using Zeam up untill now, gotta say i miss the possibility to set workspace size and vertical scrolling in the appdrawer but i'm willing to let it go ;D

Great work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] trustsyzaa:
I prefer transparent dock to this dock thanks :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] cabessius:
I have the same problem as the user a few posts before, there´s no way to install it, tried renaming and everything and no solution. I´m on Darky´s 9.5 (JS8).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Hopefully I will add that as an option. But atm I got s ton of school work.

I am on the same rom so that should not have an effect. What method did you use? The second one is recommended I think. Could you check the logcat for errors.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nedooo:
Looks promising :)

Is it possible to add app slide left right 3D effect, or it relies on system one, and how about full screen like on zeal launcher?

And home_stage_bg.png some mod and more transparency could do well, still it's simply beautifull ;)

P.S. I could add moded one with transparent dock and few icons if you don't mind...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Stage can be easily changed but I would like to make it dynamically load so others can choose. Fullscreen can be added with little hassle I believe, but for 3D I think you are out of luck. I'm not sure I could make it in java and even less in smali. Sorry
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] trustsyzaa:
may i ask some question Swiftwork, how old are you? just curious :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Sure, I'm not shy. I am 17, Swedish and Male. I started with java about half a year ago but since then I have been working a lot on my various websites, some for hobby and some school as well as other project and apps. Which is one of the reasons I haven't really contributed a lot so far. I like graphical work and User Interfaces, as well as making movies and other animated things. But time is to short to balance it all ;).

There you go, a trivia about me. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] SuddenDeath:
Nice Launcher, i like it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Furzbirre:
Deleted.

I installed with rootexplorer and set permissions to rw r r.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I guess I don't mind, but I would prefer you not use the launcher with my mods, change the original to your preferences. You can always make a tutorial that describes how to change it. Next week I am off from school so will probably add it as a dynamical feature (different drawables). Having that said its still might be tricky. Also the pane indicator is all done through xml and java so shapes could be changed but might require some digging. About homescreen not changing means that your launcher cannot save the preference file, probably because installation went wrong. Try the push method from the first post.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
After several hours of coding, you now have the ability to toggle

all

app labels on the homescreen, drawer, folders and shortcuts. I will be releasing the update tomorrow after some testing and possible new options. You can see the status in the OP and if you want to influence the features make a suggestion in the thread.

Pinch your homescreen?

Sent via my Android powered Galaxy S
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] CowMix:
I was able to install the home screen and infinity view as regular packages and everything works, is it not supposed to based on the install options listed?

Also my pinch widget zoom worked in the previous version without infinity view installed 0_o
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
If it works, then great! Some people report permission issues, so I thought it would be better to put it in /system/app + that's where it belongs :). Also are you sure you were able to pinch before. Seems a bit odd, seeing infiniteview was the pinch app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] pdppdp:
Would it be possible that you add the resolution for the galaxy tab? This launcher is incredible fast. I really like it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] katsuru:
with 200DPI the launcher stops displaying things right... what a shame :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Sorry I can't really help. I don't have a galaxy tab so can't really test it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] CowMix:
I did mess around with other packages before maybe I had infinity view already installed somehow. Anyway thanks for your great launcher mods!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] pdppdp:
Is there any data you need from the tab? I would test it for you.

I too would be using, if only for multi dpi. Looks well dodgy with phone set to 182dpi

Great Launcher, very nice work. Installed with simple apk installer (Android Mate) very easily and with no issues. (Method 4) Grin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Cy4n1d3:
I'm unable to install your launcher, version 1.1.

I tried:

1. rename to ArcLauncher.apk

2. copy to /system/app/

3. chmod 644, chown root:root

now it's sitting happily inside my app-folder, but does not show up in application list. Manual install also fails with strange error: green tick but message says Application not installed :\

I'm not quite sure what else I can do. I will try deleting cache once more...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] NoFaith:
i still have darky 9.5, and it's works flawlessly for me, no lag, so fluent....GREAT work, Thank You
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
After copying it to system/app you will not be able to just install it normally. The Logcat probably says something about it already being installed, this is fine seeing as it is not a regular application. If you press the home button it should launch.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] NoFaith:
some ideas for improvement:

- Show\Hide screen indicator

- 2-3 rows dock bar and selectable dock bar style

- the new installed apps to appear on first or the last page(like Go Launcher)

from now on...it's my default launcher
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Cy4n1d3:
Pressing Home-Button does nothing, as soon as I replace it with the original arclauncher it's working again :\ dunno, tried dalvik + cache reset and deleted all settings, no success!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I will see what I can do but with no access to the proper source code it is near impossible to do a few things. Even the origional java might be hard:p

I would get Root Explorer and search for everything related to Sonyericsson and delete everything with home mentioned. Then use the update.zip to flash or method 2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Cy4n1d3:
That's what I did, went to folder root, searched for home and nothing came up :\

I have no idea what's going on. Logcat won't be helpful here I guess?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I don't know if this fixes your problem but this is what I would do:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Cy4n1d3:
Gonna try this tomorrow, thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Thanks for the feedback. Working hard on making a prefect landscape layout. The results should be in v1.2 and hopefully in not too long.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I apologize for the earlier statement about infinitview.apk. I believe I was wrong, infinitview.apk is a way to display contacts and not the widget preview.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] NoFaith:
hy...this launcher has an option to quickly uninstall apps?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Digital Abdul:
I tried other methods but failed, then I tried this above (Method 4) it worked, the launcher looks wonderful.

Recommend, if other methods fails, try this one which is adopted (Method 4) it works like a charm.....

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sad_ryu:
Love this launcher. Using it with Darkys Rom 10.6 and having no problems at all. All it needs I think is the ability to rotate. Excellent work, thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] imranfarookj:
great theme.....
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zolah:
Would be great but Widgets don't size right on the screen...

Fancy widget is squashed up and cut off and power widget doesn't display any icons...

Does someone know a way to fix this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sad_ryu:
I had a similar problem when I changed ROM. You could untick full screen as that makes it fit better on my sgs screen. I had a problem with Widgets not going on the top half of my screen but deleting the app and copying/installing again fixed that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
It is very hard to figure out what is wrong with the widgets disappearing but still taking up space. Easiest fix is to clear data/cache.

Also about the "Power Control" widget I have no idea what is wrong but it usually fixes it self after a reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zolah:
Ive tried a few different things but i just cant get this launcher to like the widgets.

Heres a picture of my widgets...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
I have the same problem and I think it might be because of Gingerbread. I am not sure if it is worth continuing the project. I could start modding the TW4 Launcher instead.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sad_ryu:
Can you mod it to look exactly like this launcher? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Probably not but I might be able to do quite a few adjustments. To bad Samsung would probably never release the source code.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 0vermind:
I LOVE this launcher! I think you should at least continue somewhat and not compeltely give up. I ditched launcher pro for this thing! :) Hehe. I LOVE the torn wallpaper dock bar effect.

Only problem I have is I can't figure out how to get the dock icons to go in the dock, and not sit half way on top. lol. (Not sure if you know what I mean.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Hey, thanks for the kind words. I think your problem could be because of fullscreen? Anyway I have joined in a little team to make the Touchwiz 4 Launcher as good or even better than the Arc Launcher.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 0vermind:
Sounds great! But, I can't get touchwiz to install on my Droid. :( And I was able to get your Arc Launcher to work perfectly!
