Haven't had any issues. In fact, I went back to using LP instead of ADW Ex because the latest ADW Ex update jacked up the dock and the older version has a dumb looking bar at the top of the screen, probably some weird honeycomb code. Even though LP hasn't been updated in 7 months, it's still working fine for me on ICS.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] n1ggyn1ce:
Just downloaded Go Launcher, thanks. I've been stuck on LP for so long bc of the widgets. Haven't customized my Nexus ina loooong time but ever since I got ICS, it feels like I have a new phone to mess around with lol.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] styckx:
If you want something similar to LP's widgets to use with Go Launcher check out APW. Free and Paid version. Or use GoWidgets.. Solid widget set though. - https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5yZHIud2lkZ2V0cy5jb3JlIl0.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Bucci:
I also used Launcher Pro Plus on GB stock rom.

Actually on ICS is stock launcher the best - and instead of LPP widgets you can use "Android Pro Widgets" free on market (looks exactly like from LPP)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] slonn:
Launcher Pro will crash on ICS if you use the calendar widget. It should work fine if you don't use that widget - that worked for me.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CaptEvo:
+1 no doubt about it
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] JG96EVO:
I use ADW EX it works great plus its been updated for ICS compatibility.. any launcher>LP lol
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] IIIV:
On Gingerbread, Launcher Pro is still the best and smoothest launcher. I really hope that Fede has been working on re-writing the whole app and making it compatible for ICS.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] donsh00tmesanta:
Why would u want another launcher on ics?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] IIIV:
To make the top row useable, limit the number of homescreens, custom number of rows and columns on homescreen, resizable icons, fully resizable widgets, etc.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Shark_On_Land:
Go launcher is the worst.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Skunk Ape1:
Because all of the android stock launchers are freaking butt ugly. Especially the ICS version. It's no wonder why htc uses sense and Samsung touchwiz. Because if they tried to sell phones with stock android launchers they wouldn't sell many phones. Believe it out not, most of the phone buying world feels this way. For the most part,only the hardcore android fan boys like the stock launcher.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] HiGGzZ:
Just use Nova launcher -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1389071

based on ICS stock launcher + lot of features (Docks, Grid,...etc) and Uber fast.

PS: And works when GPU rendering is on while GO launcher got artefacts/Gfx bugs.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Emama:
Though I bought it on the day 1 I used my Vibrant, I gave it up since he did not update it for years
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] IIIV:
Why fix it if it ain't broke? Compared to the latest versions of ADW Launcher EX and GoLauncher EX, LauncherPro runs way smoother and lag-free on my gf's G2 with GB 2.3.4 and my Nook Color with GB 2.3.7.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Emama:
It cannot even change page order now, and the re-build was said last year and what we get now? Not even a word about it.

I know we cannot demand anything from a dev so I just switched to another launcher
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] uansari1:
Wrong. Most of the world just doesn't know what the hell they're buying and don't have any choices, as manufacturers don't sell phones without skins. Further, marketing goes entirely to brand differentiation, of which skinning is a large part. Sense is bloated and slow and Touchwiz just looks like iOS. Performance with stock Android is far better than skinned, aside from Sammy's hw accelerated browser, which is moot with ICS.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] uansari1:
I wouldn't hold your breath. Fede initially indicated he would roll out the rewrite in Q1 2011, then "within a few months", and now it's New Years Eve. I think it's a dead app.. Just as well, as I'm more than satisfied with stock ICS, or if I get bored, I can try Trebuchet.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Skunk Ape1:
I don't like a lot of crap cluttering my screen. I prefer multiple scrolling docks with all my shortcuts to putting them on my screen. That's my biggest complaint with the stock browser. I also like to hide all the apps in the app drawer that I have on the dock because I feel having the apps in two places causes clutter (which I previously mentioned I dislike).

I can pull over 3000 in quadrant running launcher pro running oICSv43 without any forced closing issues and everything butter smooth. Do I really need to be any faster than that? Besides, the stock launcher didn't run quadrant any faster. So it it's moot.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Paparasee:
Anyone knows of a calendar widget similar to the LPP one? Am interested in seeing the calendar where I can keep flipping horizontally to move from month to month.

Thanks :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nitrowing:
The stock ICS launcher is garbage compared to LPro.

No resizing widgets

No hiding apps in the drawer

Only 5 quick launch icons

No hiding the notification bar

I re-installed LPro and started tweaking from it's default settings - hopefully it's just the calendar widget that's crapping out but I've had no trouble so far.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theadb:
Try APW (Android Pro Widgets): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rdr.widgets.core&hl=en

They have tons of skins too.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] audiophizile:
I really hope he makes it fully functional on ics. He doesn't have to add or change anything imo, just make it 100% ics compatible. Anyone who doesn't think lpp is the smoothest, fastest, launcher needs to get their eyes checked.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 063_XOBX:
Hate to break it to you but LPP is dead. Fede (the developer) hasn't updated his site in 14months+ and has been "working on a total rewrite" for almost 2 years with no eta or signs of progress.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] uansari1:
Yup.. That's why I left LP+ a year ago and never looked back.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Jac0verflow:
I can't agree. It's all about tastes I think... According to me most of skinned launchers are really ugly and graphically outdated. Especially if compared to the stock ICS one, which looks pretty professional. What I like most is that this time the launcher look is well integrated into the system. Touchwiz is a shame, it features horrible color combinations and looks like a bad attempt of iOS emulation. Blur looks bad to me, xperia's home is nothing special. Sense features a well designed ecosystem, it's the only skinned launcher which deserves a chance. Anyway I couldn't state that stock offers a good choice of features: it definitely lacks many. Just to mention some: icon replacement, resize on every widget, dock pages, matted icon labels, power notification widget... That's why I went with Trebuchet and cyanogenmod.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TwiztedDotNet:
I've been using LPP for years now, and I love some of the features...

Now that I'm on ICS, I really miss the calendar widget (since it is the FC culprit).

My question is - do any of these other launchers have the following features:

Swipe gesture on the dock icons - I use this to show notifications because my 160 density makes my notification bar pretty small and difficult to grab.

Resize widgets - I like to run 5x7, and always re-size my digital clock widget so it's centered.

Custom icons in the dock - self explanatory...

...and lastly, if multiple alternative launchers have all of these features - which one is better (and why)?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] anrkee:
I'm a fan of ADW launcher. The pro version is definitely worth the money. The only thing that LPP has on ADW is the widgets and you can get Android Pro Widgets if you want them.

I used to love LPP but it's pretty much dead now, unfortunately.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dr911:
Just try the combo of Apex Launcher (Play Store)

- swipe gestures on homescreen to show notifiction bar are configurable

- widget resizing

- custom icons

and Android Pro Widgets (Play Store), which I think has all the widgets LPP has as LPP widget themes also work for APW.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] MichaelCampos:
I Completely Stoped Using It The First Time It Frooze My Phone What A Shame:(
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] m4f1050:
Android Pro Widgets gives me an error when I try to download it... meh...

It's free but it says "Error processing purchase. [DF-BPA-09]"

Can someone please PM me the .apk?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dirt:
delete data/cache from your play store app. if that doesn't work, log out of your google acct & log back in. this is a common error that is usually corrected by one of those steps.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] m4f1050:
I cleared the data on play store and no - go, and I didn't find a way to log out of play store, but I found it by googling it :) It works nice. Now I have my LauncherPro Plus VERY similar to what I had it. Only difference I noticed was instead of scrolling with the finger I need to press the little arrows on the bottom section, no biggie.

Thanks.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] :
Try zeam launcher. Extremely light and smooth interface like launcher pro :)

Hi,

I was trying to install a ROM this was my very first time I never did this before. I started ODin, attached my phone in download mode, provided .tar file in PDA and clicked START. A few command ran in ODin console and then my phone display was gone and nothing further happened in ODin console. I waited for long but no progress. I detached my phone and tried to restart it in order to revert back to my previous ROM. But I am seeing only this screen and I am stuck here:

I was installing ROM from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843019

I was following these steps provided on another thread:

Instructions - ODIN (long)

- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!

- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip

- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer

- Start ODIN

- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar

- Put your phone in download mode

- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer

- Make sure repartition is NOT checked

- Click the START button

- Wait for the phone to reboot

- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)​

Hi mv_style,

I tried flashing official rom with odin. Everything ran successfully in oDin. But when I rebooted my phone it shows the start screen and then restarts and this repeats infinitely.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrTek:
Has anyone tested if the Gnex with ICS now supports AVRCP 1.3+ when connecting it via Bluetooth to their car stereo?

1.3/1.4 should support displaying Track info when playing music via Bluetooth. I have a 2010 Mazda which should support it, but I wanted to see if others had tried this?

If it does have support I would think Google Music would support it, but hopefully it extends system wide for things like Spotify?

It did not work in Gingerbread, but I had hoped to see it in ICS.

Here is a thread from earlier:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=723622&page=2

Some background info:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile#Audio.2FVideo_Remote_Control_Profile_.28AVRCP.29

I believe Android is using the BlueZ Bluetooth stack which appears to support AVRCP 1.3:

http://www.bluez.org/profiles/

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.bluez.kernel/15551/match=avrcp
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CraigP17:
My 2010 Mazda would be much better if the display didn't just say "BT" but rather the track title :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qman66:
same with my 11 explorer. it just says galaxy nexus where the title goes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rubik:
My BMW with connecteddrive shows "No track info" , so i'm guessing it's not working
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sheepcounter:
No. ICS has no AVRCP 1.3+ support. At least for now.

I read somewhere that there will be changes made to bluetooth with 4.0.3.

Maybe Google finally woke up and implemented the latest bluez.

Seems like we have to wait....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcp2009:
Would be awesome if it did. Loved my HP Veer because it did. Also tired of seeing just BT on my radio
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joderme:
I can add to all of this with a few personal experiences. Back and forward work, however, music info doesn't work on the following that I have tested:

BMW ConnectedDrive system (someone confirmed that above)

Ford Sync system

Acura system

Let's hope that 4.0.3 incorporates this.

Has anyone tried one of the .3 custom roms to see if anything has changed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rcerulli:
Same issue on 2011 Nissan Maxima, track and artist info is blank.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pictureaday:
Unfortunately I am quite confident that our 2010 Mazdas do not support avrcp 1.3, only 1.0.

Also it has far less to do with the OS than having to do with the bluetooth drivers/stack. My neighbor's droid x sends metadata to his 2011 mits. lancer, but when we tried it on my 2010 mazda3 we saw nothing but "bt audio". The 2011+ on the other hand supposedly do support avrcp 1.3.

While hearing that bluez has finally implemented avrcp support in their nearly ubiquitous bt stack, it unfortunately does not mean that we will be seeing meta data...

One interesting thing to note is that while the 2010s support avrcp 1.0 and the 2011s support avrcp 1.3/1.4 the bluetooth module is a slightly different part number, they are interchangeable (according to my dealer).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] imbogdan:
Unfortunately the Galaxy Nexus (with FW 4.0.1) has AVRCP 1.0 which means no ID3 tag info, no repeat/shuffle/scan, just basic controls (play/pause/skip).

Let's hope that with the new FW there will be some changes in the BT stack.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr Tone:
As far as I can see it doesn't have the Message Access Profile either. My S2 got my text messages to my sync system, no luck with the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hlaalu:
Any more word on this? Bought a nice new stereo for my car and would love to see some track information :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shooshi:
T_T I have a 2011 Mazda 3 and my galaxy nexus also won't show any track info. I was excited to see that the gnex had bluetooth 3.0 but didn't realize it would only be AVRCP 1.0... My gf's sister has an HD7 and when it pairs with my car it shows all the info and it also has the reading your text message feature so when she receives a text the car will ask "read it or ignore"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hlaalu:
Is there anyway to copy bluetooth files that have the AVRCP 1.3 from another phone to ours?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rocketjrb:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
CM 7.2 with Android 2.3.7 has AVRCP 1.3+, maybe the cyanogen team bring it back in official Gnex CM9
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hlaalu:
Been a while, any news?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SnrSuave:
My car radio has support for that profile but my Verizon Galaxy Nexus does not display any track info. It may be possible in the future. My Samsung Fascinate didn't support it but I once had a Cyanogen from on it and it did work then. Hopefully it gets enabled in a future update!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Nope it doesn't work, at least not yet. Makes me nervous when my iPod can do it and my nexus can't :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mac_33:
I've been waiting for avrcp 1.3 for about 20 months, ever since I bought my Xperia X10 and MW600 bluetooth headset (has OLED display). I was really hoping that the Galaxy Nexus would have it but it doesn't (titles don't work on mine).

I did read somewhere that this was on CM7, I hope that it is added to CM9 soon and/or new official releases for the Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hhairplane:
CM9 Nightly starting from April 4, now supports AVRCP 1.3, so you could try that ROM if so decided.

This is annoying as heck.

I have had the Droid 1, Droid X, and Charge and have always been able to root the phones and install roms and follow directions with now problem.

I have installed SDK, I have downloaded the adb platform tools. However, I have no idea how to get adb where it needs to be from there.

Does anyone know where I can find an in-depth guide?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonyoung:
try here:

http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
To use ADB commands, you open a CMD prompt (or terminal in linux) and navigate to your platform-tools folder. That's where "ADB" actually lives. Once you're in that folder, you can now use associated ADB commands.

Then you can use commands like /adb push <> <>, /adb pull <> <> etc.

This is what I found for ADB guide in XDA: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=879701
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShotgunSam:
Yeah, I have seen that.

I guess the wall I am hitting is how you actually start adb. I know where the folder is. I might be overlooking something though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShotgunSam:
Didn't see your post Mart, ill try that now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pacifik:
An easy way to avoid the navigation through cmd is to right click in the folder that contains adb and open the command prompt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonyoung:
Even easier is adding the folder to the system path variable.

That allows you to always run adb, no matter what folder you happen to be at.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShotgunSam:
Ok, I have effectively managed to get to adb and it is installed.

to root the nexus, do I now start at the 1st step in the "lets begin section" listed here:
