One thing it is missing is the use of scrollable widgets....

Also, when I set the page I want to be the default page and go to another page, hitting the home button does not change the page back...Has anyone had any luck with that?
[Android Apps and Games] cris.arce.ramos:
This is the one I've been waiting for. Simple yet highly flexible in positioning widgets and internal components. No need for text widgets, alternative drawer.

I am excited to know what kind of Monster this thing will be, soon! :p

I think this launcher will kill Mr GO any time soon. ;) ;)
[Android Apps and Games] claus1953:
Still a long way to go... no folders or tabs in the app page... no unread messages or mail or missed calls indications... no support for scrollable widgets etc

This launcher keeps "separate" versions for portrait and landscape widgets dispositions.

MASTERPIECE.

Every launcher should offer this !

This is an amazing launcher. Wish I could hide the status bar but none the less it is unique and fresh! Two thumbs up.

very cool

different from other launcher

but need more customization
[Android Apps and Games] eman3316@optonline.net:
Have you guys tried to add or edit a page after adding everything to your pages. I get forcecloses and cannot edit any pages after a little bit. Don't see any way around this unless I totally clear all my data and then it works initially but will close again once I start adding things, it will not let me add/delete/edit a page...

Love this launcher! Please consider an add free version (hopefully the author looks here). I'll be glad to pay a few dollars to support it. I had one experience of losing everything on my Cover page while making modifications, but it only happened once. Nice work. :)

is there a way to use it on SGY??
[Android Apps and Games] zwoggel:
I've just discovered this nice piece of software a few days ago.

Best launcher I ever had. So great to customize and fast.

I only find the transitions between pages a little bit choppy, would love to see a nice blend in/blend out effect.

And maybe the possibility to use more system variables as shortcut text, besides the date and time. I'm thinking battery, memory, CPU.

Using it on an Optimus 3D with CM7 nightly, runs great.

sslauncher 1.7.3-4 and GMail unread count

I installed sslauncher 1.7.3-4 update hoping to try out the new GMail unread count feature in shortcuts but unfortunately it doesn't work for me...the count keeps showing zero no matter how many new emails come in. Wonder if anyone here tried it and does it work for you? Posted this question on the Dev's site and everything he said to try/check I've already done but still no success. Its not a big show-stopper for me as I can still use SMS Unread Count widget for this purpose. However having this function straight out of an sslauncher shortcut would be much more elegant.
[Android Apps and Games] ngh55:
Great launcher, unfortunately it FC way to often and I don't know if it is the launcher or not but lately my phone lags and hangs while playing games and other apps.
[Android Apps and Games] BMamba550:
I had similar problems, not sure if yours is the same. Look at post #175 on the previous page to see some solutions that worked for me to fix the force closes and lag, with thanks to jeryya for the tips.

It was frustrating while the force closes were happening but I just couldn't give up on such an awesome launcher. Now that my force closes are gone, sslauncher is performing great and I'm enjoying new levels of customization unseen in other launchers.
[Android Apps and Games] BMamba550:
FYI I did ask the developer a related question and he said he would consider an option to disable page swiping. Not sure if/when this will happen or how it would be implemented. In my case, I wanted to make some pages to be only accessible by links (Applications, Contacts, Bookmarks).
[Android Apps and Games] soundahfekz:
It seems with this launcher you're able to target everything in the settings BUT the app drawer, so I've been unable to use this effectively. Am I missing something? How is this done?

appreciate any help in advance. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
You have to have your app page set up. Go to menu>pages>new page and choose 'application drawer', that will give you the page you want. Then you can create a shortcut to it from another page, long press on the screen of your page (other than application drawer), choose 'type' then select 'page', then choose your target page 'applications' or whatever you names the applications drawer.
[Android Apps and Games] soundahfekz:
The only menu i seem to have access to is the new object menu which will allow me to do a widget, shortcut or load/add a template.

such a newbie at android, i must be missing something else?
[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
your almost there, do you have a blank page? did you press your phones menu key? you should get 6 boxes showing, wallpaper, system settings, theme, pages, prefrences and more.

---------- Post added at 11:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

If you have a blank page, then you missed one step. Again, pressing your phones menu key, select 'edit current page', and select from the drop down list of 'Page', application drawer. then select 'label' and call it whatever you want. Apps, drawer, doesn't matter as long as you remember the name.

Keep in memory

Hi!

First i must say i love this launcher:definitively you can get your device as ayou want...But i feel quite slow when i press home key...I've seen the option to Save the current page(r something like that...)but is quite slow returning to Home.Is there a way to accelerate the return to main screen?

Thanks a lot ;)
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
I've tried to make "Parcels" but when I go through this process, when I hit the icon on the homescreen, there are no apps in the box. The apps I put in the box, are also not on my app page anymore (not the main one or the one that pops up hitting the android icon in lower right). What am I missing? I'm loving this Launcher, just need to learn how to make folders. Nexus 7. Once I get this to work, I'm uninstalling GO!
[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
First, make your parcel in the applications page. Again, follow my instructions, then when all done, press and hold the parcel icon your working on, and move to the screen you want. It will automatically take you to the 'style' section where you can pick how you want it to look. it should have all the shortcuts in there.
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Well, I just bought the app, and restored my settings from the free version. The parcel now shows up on the app page with the apps in it! There's a blank parcel and a loaded parcel. Dragging to screen works great. The whole app seems smoother now that I bought it! GO -bye-bye

Was I supposed to uninstall the free version? Everything seems to work fine.
[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
That might have been an option not allowed on the free version. My last free version was a long time ago! Yea, as soon as I tested the free version, away went Go. Glad its working for you!

One more question. How to get Bookmarks on the bookmarks page other than adding one at a time? I went to settings and user DB and import from default, but nothing shows up.
[Android Apps and Games] redspeed:
Really nice unique launcher. It does run a bit sluggish on my G2 though. I usually stick with Atom/Nemus/FTL for speed but I really like the look of this one
[Android Apps and Games] Horgul123:
Hi,

I have the little problem with the ssLauncher. I've set it as the dafault launcher and it works well until I have to reboot my phone. Then Android asks me again which launcher should be the default launcher.

any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
Odd, I don't have that issue. When you select it, are you also selecting the box "use by default for this action"? That locks it into memory, so when you reboot, it should always go to that particular launcher.

Now, if your launching SSLauncher from your applications drawer, then there are two things you ,au need to do.

1) Select it again from your apop drawer, and then hit your home key. it should give you the option of which launcher to use. If not,

2) go to your phones setting>applicaitons>manage applications and find your phones pre-built launcher (You may have to hit the 'all' tab) Since I am running an HTC phone, that would be 'HTC Sense'. Select it, and then scroll down till you see the button "Clear Defaults", and select it.

Now, when you hit your home key again, it will have that box where you can select your launcher, again, remember to select "Use by default for this action".

that should fix it for you. if not, sounds like your phones screwey, and that would be beyone my realm of knowledge.
[Android Apps and Games] Horgul123:
I select "always" when being asked which launcher should be used. And my mobile tells me how to delete this preference if needed. It works with all other apps and it worked with Go Launcher before. In another forum someone has the same problem. Really strange :( we both are using a Samsung I9300 S3

[Android Apps and Games] jerrya:
Hopefully someone can get on and help. Try emailing the developer, they are probably your best bet.

We've emailed him and he will have a look... Let's hope for a quick fix :)

When I'm using a wallpaper changer I have the problem that ssLauncher stretches the wallpaper. The resolution of the wallpapers is the same like the physical resolution of my phone, so it should be view without problems,

I don't have 4.2 yet, anyone have it and have any problems with this Launcher?
[Android Apps and Games] Horgul123:
I have 4.1.2 on my I9300. The launcher works fine but if forgets its defaultsetting. After every reboot I have to set it again as default launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Upgraded to 4.2 Friday, ssLauncher has no issues that I am aware of! Love this launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] Ironman1965:
The problems with the default launcher setting is supposedly a bug with JB and paid Launchers. Go to the Market and install Jelly Bean Launcher Loader. Run the app and hit top button and select your launcher. Hit home button and select Jelly Bean Launcher Loader. Works good. Cheers.
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
How to?

Love ssLauncher on my Nexus 7. I have saved my theme (3 files), and installed ssLauncher on my Optimus-V (2.3.5), and loaded the theme. The screens look fine and everything works EXCEPT:

1. Many icons are gone that are "off grid" (far right on N7), obvious a screen resolution issue. Is there a way to reset the theme to a smaller screen?

2. A few apps were not on the phone, just eliminated those links, no issue.
[Android Apps and Games] BABUUSHKA:
i really want to try this launcher out, it looks really awesome but i cant get it to install on my phone! i downloaded the free one and it prompted me to support the developer but when i paid for it it came back and said i didnt have enough memory. not true, i have tons! and i cleared my cache and even tried downloading the apk onto my phone directly to see if it was my phone or google play but no matter what i try the paid version comes back saying not enough memory.
[Android Apps and Games] Daemos:
The only two things missing from this launcher that prevent me from using it are:

I don't like to have an app drawer icon, so in nova launcher I set the app drawer to open with the home key (on my N7100) when at the main screen

The look of the app drawer...I'd like something more ICS ish, with tabs at the top, I have separated some of my apps using the tabs at the top in Nova.

Other than that, for customization of the home screen nothing beats it, but day to day usability lacks these two features.

Not sure how to contact the dev to see if I can get these features added without having to make some sort of blog account :/
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Is there a setting that determines what is considered "Large", "Medium", and "Small" text on the default Applications and Contacts pages? I change the Large font and some of the App titles change, others stay "Medium". But after a reboot they all change to "Large" (but I want App titles Medium, and Contact title "Large").

Is there a global setting for this?
[Android Apps and Games] vitalero:
So i lost my app drawer icon forcing me to use the APP DRAWER page which i dont want but ..

how can i pull icons into the main screen now? from that page? or atlist how can i restore the icon that sends me to the original APP DRAWER. every launcher have it except this one.. so wierd not easy at all to handle and i passed already all nova/apex/go/lightning and this one is realy hard to handle.
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Just long press and "Add new shortcut", select Type/page, then pick the page you want. Can make it an icon or text. There's a little learning curve to this launcher, but it's more customizable than any. I like the App drawer page in list mode. Very easy to find things and shows version info.
[Android Apps and Games] Rahul2929:
Hi

I found this app to good but want some info regarding some widgets used.

Firstly, I want to know how Phone widget in the main screen of the launcher shows no of miss calls I have recieved?

Secondly, can this be done into another styles present in the launcher?

I will be very tankful for ur suggestions
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Long press to add new shortcut, under "title"/"text" check "missed calls", then configure the icon or text to any look you want. Missed calls should show up on that icon.

Wish this feature was available for K9 mail.

Re: [APP]ssLauncher (android 2.2+)

hi, i really like this launcher but i want to know is theres an option to keep it from running like a service?

like in apex/nova you untick the keep in memory option
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
How can any launcher not use "some" services? There's a "use less memory" option. I just tried it and doesn't seem to effect the launcher much and dropped my memory from 117mb to 80mb. I have at least 40% free memory so it really isn't an issue.

Once you chose a style, you can edit it any way you want: change color, size, padding, image, font... pretty much any style that floats your boat.

AW: [APP]ssLauncher (android 2.2+)

Is it only on my Galaxy Note 2 - or on other devices too? When scrolling/swiping between pages sometimes it hangs/it's not switching to the next site :( Only long swipings (swiping 2cm of the screen) are correct switching to the next site - shorter swipings are not switching to the next site (site scrolls back to normal). Changing sensibility in settings is without effect :(

All other tested launchers (f.e. Apex/Next Launcher) are switching correct - also with short swipes - but sslauncher is the only one with different layouts for portrait/landscape...

Man, Thanks for the post.

I'm having the same exact disappearing widget problem.

But it's on every reboot.. Manual reboot or auto reboot...

All widgets are gone. :(

Is there any real fix for this yet?

edit: Took someones advice of "optimizing widgets"..

Which was simply making a poweramp widget a little smaller..

Had 2 succesful reboots since then.... widgets still in place. So hopefully we're good. lol

thanks!

AW: [APP]ssLauncher (android 2.2+)

On v1.9.9 (pro Version) I've still the same problem on my Note2: Sometimes it hangs when swiping through the screens (only with slow and long slides swiping though the pages is without errors) :(

And I think I found another bug:

When restoring a saved theme the widgets will not restored :(

Btw is the programmer reading in this thread or should it be better to contact him with email?

This launcher is really awesome but is there an option where i can add multiple apps to a homepage at the same time? I want to align the app icons properly bu i cant due to no grid (which is awesome) but i was wondering if it had a align feature where the icons would be spaced out accordingly. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
You can set up a home page as an "app group" and set grid up to 10 x 10 (lets you add as many apps at one time). On normal pages alignment lines pop up when an item is aligned. Yes, awesome!

How to show/hide the dockbar?

I've tried everything but nothing happens. ( the dock bar it's not "hidden"... i mean in a menu tools there is this option).

Thank you in advice

??? In preferences (4th item down): "Hide Dock Bar" check it.

sorry for my bad english!!
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Sorry, I unchecked hide dock bar and it's not there either. I do remember it being there when I first got SS Launcher, so I guess there is something else "hidden?" that makes it appear....
[Android Apps and Games] wfrcrd:
don't be sorry, al least i'm not the only one blind :)

maybe it's a bug of the latest version?

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

hmmm maybe i've found something...

I suppose that "dock bar" it's not a real dock bar but a menu bar.

The same menu bar that you have when you go on the "contacs" page or "application" page.

That menu bar appears automatically when you are on those pages;

but if you choose "hide the dock bar" that menu bar doeasn't appear anymore .

SO i think : nothing in the "home" page,

someting like a dock bar (witch it's not a real dock bar) on other pages...

too bad.. :(
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
Looks like that's the answer. I don't like dock bars anyway. Can pretty much create your own with individual icons or just a parcel to what you'd want on a dock (you could shape the parcel icon like a dock)
[Android Apps and Games] wfrcrd:
I like dock because i can hide or show it with a simple and fast gesture...

This time i can't do it :(
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
You could do a parcel shortcut in the dock area with a blank icon. Stretch it to the dock area. Then all you do it touch that blank area and anything in your parcel will pop up.

This is what pops up when I tough "Home", could be a blank area just as easily.
[Android Apps and Games] wfrcrd:
Interesting!

A few questions:

1 how can you add a lot of link to apps on that blank parcel? what kind of shortcut it is ? it seems a folder, but i cannot add a folder to the home page

2 it's possibile to open that blank area only with a special gesture, ( for example a double click?)

3 how can you close that opened area?

4 it possible to add widgets to that link area?

It seems that your shortcut is pointing to a "page" so it's the same to swipe to another page ... mumble...

Thank you in advice
[Android Apps and Games] tcat007:
You can create a parcel from the app page. Click the back button, then the box on left, then select what you want in the box, then back again, then box on left. A new parcel (folder) is made. You can long click to change its name. You can drag it from the app page to any cover page. You can edit it from there to change its icon (select a blank transparent image for a blank icon, or make it a word, or make it any picture). You can drag other apps into it from the app page (into that parcel on the app page, the parcel stays there even if you drag it to another page.). I don't think you can add widgets. Pretty sure you can gesture, I don't use them so don't know how.

On my screen, the shuttle icon opens a parcel with NAV, Maps, GPS... etc, the "Interplanet" opens my browser, the moon is Moon Phase Pro... and much more, some hidden. To close that open folder, you just tap anywhere (as long as it's not on top of one of the apps in the parcel). Another shot of my home page:
