TW is not choppy for me. I don't know man...I have also flipped Willy nilly between different roms (stock root, all alien builds, s-stocketeer (1.0 & 1.5), back too nandroid, & once odin»to stock (almost forgot i flashed CRT off zip as soon as it was posted as well). All without a hitch, not sure if its dumb luck or what. I got my I727

on launch day & have followed forum ocd stylee. I have read several more experienced users @ least temporarily flame out with fc's. My device has been a rock.........so far

I've been using the ICS Launcher now on mine and have been enjoying it. Very fast scrolling and I love the looks.

I've used Launcher Pro, ADW EX, and SPB Shell in the past. All good launchers. For customizing, ADW Ex is one of my favorites.

You may just have to try them all.

You can use ROM Toolbox for fonts, they have a ton on there. I have tried a few of the other tweaks but they have not worked and I end up restoring.

The Best and most supported Launcher

I have tried ADW EX and all the launchers out there. I am now using and loving " GO LAUNCHER" it constanly has updates, widgets, SMS app and themes for everything- VERY VERY customizable- Alot of themes and wigets are absolutely free !!! Runs fast also- Try it out- you will now be disappointed....:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
those symbols are not a crash.....lol thats just you scrolling through the dock.

it allows for 15 icons in the bottom dock and you scroll though them. or hope thats what it is.

i use Go Launcher as well. will try QQlauncher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hualx:
Been using go launcher for a year and loved it... until i got the ADW for .10 yesterday.

Still like go but ADW seems to have lots more options for customization that fit my style.

Still to early to coment on battery life but i've never noticed a problem w go to speak of.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
The launch dock does not appear to be scrollable to me? I just tried scrolling and it didn't do anything.

All I know is sometimes I turn on my phone and all the launch icons are "+" symbols and don't work again until I reboot.

Drives me nuts and happens a couple times a week and on various ROM's.

It's a great launch app otherwise.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sulpher:
In my testing golauncher ex drains 3-4 times more battery when idle as launcher pro does.. They all drain battery, but some more than other... To get the same functionality you do have to purchase the pro, but the difference in battery loss is worth $3 to me.

I loved VTL.Launcher when I had my Dell Streak. With the Skyrocket though, I was using Go Launcher and it's fantastic, but I've switched to Launcher7 and it seems to be a bit lighter on the battery than Go

The dock has 3 enabled by default but looping is disabled. So try swiping left or right on the dock. You can change the number of docks available and enable looping as well. But it does sound like you swiped the dock to one of the empty pages showing all +.

I got SPB Shell 3D for Christmas, so far I really LOVE it on my tablet (Acer Iconia A500) although it does have an issue occasionally when I come out of applications, having to load for 10seconds before my home screen comes up (I am going to email SPB about this).

I have no review about it on my phone just yet.....give me some time with it and I will report back.

It's a costly launcher, the most I have ever paid for any app, $14.95.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
Oooooooo i will have to look into this. it looks nice. myabe i will put it on my phone today.

loving the features just from watching the video though.

another good look Mortem, hope it works the same on our phones.

i will also report back with info on it.

---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

the battery life will be interesting to see with this one...

but i have to say, it is AWESOME!!!!

the widgets and gestures are great. wish i could make the panels loopable( as in when u reach the last panel it cycles back to the first)

i never paid this much for an app, but im impressed with it so far. NO LAG AT ALL even will all the 3D stuff going on. our phone handles it with ease as far as i can tell. did notice it getting very hot. but i think thats because i am playing with it while it is on charge.

again good Find. and i will come back the battery results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
It is very smooth on the phone but I do think it is lacking some very simple features. I really like it.....here is my review I posted on the market. So far battery isn't too effected from what I can tell.

Alex on December 27, 2011 (Version 1.5.2)

Could be 5 stars....

Very nice launcher but $14.95 is very over priced. I received this for Christmas and there are some very simple features missing. As others have said, swiping animations could be better, ADWEx does this better. Also folders could be better skinned, again I point to ADWEx for a better folder experience.

One of the biggest downfalls here, and I will investigate further to see if it is possible but at the moment I don't see the option, is not being able to customize icons. Being able to use custom icons is a MUST, other launchers have this option, other launchers that are FREE. Overall I enjoy the SPB Shell experience, but had to knock off a star for two things.

1. PRICE, $14.95 is thinking very highly of yourself. And before you say, why did you buy it? I received it as a gift because I wasn't going to pay that much for an app but I wanted to try it and someone got it for me.

2. Lack of simple customization, the biggest thing is not being able to change icons. Most all of the fairly priced launchers have this simple feature as well as much more. I am also having issues on my tablet when I exit an application and SPB Shell takes 10 or more seconds to load, I will email the dev.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
Yea i noticed that as well. but i am assuming this is a New app?? im sure the updates will have the customization that you are looking for.

i dont see how the Dev missed something so simple that ALL other launchers have...lol

and it was high priced, but unless the battery life just SUCKS....i think i will be keeping it. i do like the overall look and feel of it as of now. the icon thing cant be hard to add. but do really like some of the widgets that are in the launcher.

agan thanks for posting Mort!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
Actually SPB Shell has been around since WinMo 6.5 and on Android for some time now. But yeah, they need to integrate some of the simple customization features. I know they are concentrating on the 3D look and widgets, and that ALL looks awesome, but the simple stuff is important too. And again, $15 is a bit much, they should offer a free version or trail version for peeps who don't want to spend $15 or want to test it.

There are non-market methods to get it, BUT, you have to disable market updates otherwise the non market method doesn't work. And it's a pain to have to shut off market updates. Go back in a week, switch launchers, turn on market updates, update apps, turn off market updates, switch back to SPB.

Besides the fact you are cheating the devs out of money, I just decided to pay for it, with Christmas money of course.

and your welcome :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] AstroDigital:
I been using it for months and I really love it on my Galaxy S2 LTE, I have had it since my Captivate and it was a bit slow but my SII LTE it is very smooth and the home screens that come with the shell are amazing.

Use the Weather, Note, News and Flickr

Group my games in a folder, tools in another folder.

Love the shell people buying Android tend to be cheap and it costs about $15 but it is worth it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
since you have been using it for a while......when i add a Picture widget for the gallery. the thumbs work and im able to scroll through the pics....but the far right grid icon that looks as though it should bring up all your pics. does not do anything. is this happening on yours as well??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
I'm not cheap, if I am going to spend this much I want some basic levels of customization. Well I already spent this much, LOL.

But at any rate, I would like to see some basic levels of customization implemented and then I might justify the $15. Like being able to change icons and dock backgrounds. Swiping animations could be nicer. Folders could be better. etc etc

Not that it's a bad launcher, I am not saying that. But for me.....in my opinion, there needs to be more offered at the price they charge. ADWEx is a phenomenal launcher for less than half the price. Sure it doesn't have the 3D effect but paired with some nice widgets, it can be just as effective.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
I agree with Mortem there.....

on another Note, this thing seems an even worse battery hog than Go Launcher.

i may have to get Juice defender just to keep running this thing....lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
I have noticed some more battery drain....even with juice defender on. But it does have the extra screens that are updating in the background, you can change the interval I think.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
Okay I have made some changes to this launcher and now my battery life is much better you just have to take some panels out that constantly update. My problem was the moon phase panel it ate my battery up weather was asleep or on

Mortem or Silver!!!!!

on spb 3d Shell, the Messaging Widget. does it take 2 seconds to drop down on your phone as well.

i gave my mother my infuse, and i loaded up my google account and put it on there, but the infuse seems to drop down the messaging widget instintanious as the rocket i dont want to call it lag, but thats a good word...it lags almost 2 seconds before dropping the carrasel of messages.

do yall see this, or is just me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
yes it does
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
thats crazy that my old infuse while it lags on 3d.....and is noticably slower in the actions on the launcher. can handle that widget better.

it made me angry that it was faster than my phone even in that little way....lol

Hey guys. First post on this website, I have been looking all over just always researching, this site definitely helped me in my adventures with my Nexus S, and I recently purchased my Samsung Galaxy SII i727r.

I am looking forward to making helpful posts and learning a lot into my phone, as I plan to keep this phone for a good amount of time compared to the length of ownership I have from my other older phones. (iPhone 3GS -> Samsung Captivate -> Samsung Nexus S)

In any case, I figure this might be a good time for my first comment.

I was browsing a few areas of YouTube, and watched a bit of CES and got interested in the Windows Phone 7 design elements. I figured I'd give it a shot with Launcher 7, available for most Android devices. And honestly, I found it kind of cool.

It was nice to get away from the normal icon based homescreen to go to the "Metro style" experience that Windows Phone 7 generally employs. This launcher only effects your homescreen and your list of apps unfortunately, but ultimately works pretty well.

I WOULD recommend this launcher, however it seemed to drain my battery ridiculously fast. My phone dies half way through the day, and when I plug it into my laptop (via USB) to charge it, it would just die over time if it was turned on. I also noticed the battery was getting hot. I decided to use the wall charger accessory that comes with the i727r and had my phone turned off overnight during the charge. The same problem occurred the next day until I finally uninstalled Launcher 7, and went back to normal. Now my battery is back to being mostly full by late evening, and it charges quick once again.

I just wanted to write this up as a possible isolated incident, as I searched elsewhere and couldn't find anyone experiencing this issue with the Launcher. It may have been my own phone for all I know. If you can avoid this down side with your own device, this Launcher is pretty neat to experience Windows Phone while retaining the abilities of an Android. Just be careful.

I've used Go Launcher EX, ADW Launcher EX, Launcher Pro, TW Launcher, SweeterHome2, and SPB Shell 3D. SPB Shell is cool, but is really lacking in customization. I cant even change any of the icons and it can't even load contact pictures linked from facebook. ADW and Launcher Pro are alright, but I keep coming back to Go Launcher. I just stated playing around with SweeterHome2 (dead project that seems to have been revived very recently). It's still in beta and not on the market yet. It's got a lot of potential and the amount of customization is quite impressive, but the customization is not very intuitive or user friendly.

I had installed xrecovery and tried to add JIT, but wrong xrecovery (with sdcard bug) and JIT causes this error (boot loop):

~ # [helium@LENOVO ~]$ adb logcat

- waiting for device -

Before i did a backup with xrecovery, byt i cant recover it, because it gives me sdcard mount error. So I had stuck on it!

I cant use flashtool to reflash my phone, because I am on linux...And need backed up data of course...

Its only a suggestion, I am not savvy with linux
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
I was trying to install JIT because of speed up my phone. Lags more than few seconds were getting me really angry. even with few apps on background and good task manager...

You`re true, it COULD be easier. But in linux it is not possible to run PC companion or SEUS...

That`s why I am looking for files. I am not a noob :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
I never said you were, I just thought JIT was not needed on GB roms...and I have no experience with linux.

Cant you just download thos files from a custom rom, or extract them a stock fw?

Again, apologies if this is not possible on linux, but I dont have access to those files at the moment
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
No need to apologize... I am discussing a lot of time with totally non experienced users (because I am linux forum administrator) :)

So I havent read that JIT is not needed on GB... Damn, if it is true I made a really stupid and unnessesary mistake with horrible effect...

I`ll google how it is about it, but want to recover my phone again first :)

Yes, I had downloaded few stock roms, but I am not able to extract files from them! Looking for some ROM dissasembler or something like that... I notice, that many windows programs (but not all - especially flash tools) works under linux properly, so looking for ANY extractor... :)
