Dock Long-Press Issue in v1.3.0beta4

My dock icons are moving around WITHOUT long-pressing in the latest beta, v1.3.0beta4. Merely swiping my finger up from the dock triggers a drag & drop of that icon into the desktop. I was pocket-killing my dock icons when I figured out what was going on.

Anyway we can please get this fixed in the next beta release? I was constantly locking/unlocking the entire desktop as a temporary workaround, but I ended up reverting back to the official release for now. :(

Also, for those of us who keep their dock as a constant, it would be wonderful to have the option to lock just the dock (and not the entire desktop)!

All that said, thank you, dennisxl, for creating (and regularly updating!) such an amazing launcher! Definitely the best out there, IMHO!

No, it's nothing to do with the Rom. S3 users running various different leaked Jellybean Rom's eg. wanamlite/Omega/ even stock JB all report this issue. It's a pita because I am dying to use Apex on Jellybean.

[Android Apps and Games] Jezz_X:
I've actually noticed the home screen being blank as couple of times my self

recently

I think he means the fact that they all use the same Samsung source Rom and just add their own little changes not too mention that is non official leaked Rom stuff. So really your choices are wait for a proper final official Samsung release or buy the dev a s3 so he can try it out himself and debug it
[Android Apps and Games] asvantypography:
Samsung announced jelly bean for S3 couple weeks ago -_-
[Android Apps and Games] clinthess:
For those of you on the sgs3 and are having lag in the continuous transparent app drawer, you can try making a couple adjustments to your build.prop if you're comfortable. I changed mine and now it's lag free.

alvik.vm.heapstartsize=8m

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=64m

dalvik.vm.heapsize=64m

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=100

There are some others I did as well, but this may resolve the lag since it frees up resources.
[Android Apps and Games] DashingGentleman:
Samsung has announced it but not released it. Every custom Jellybean ROM for the GT-I9300 is based on the same leaked Samsung firmware or experimental Cyanogenmod 10 builds. The Samsung leaks evidently have a bug of some sort. Hopefully it'll get fixed in the official release.

I think the transparency issue is actually fixed in CM10 for the S3, but there are a couple of other major bugs present which will exist until Samsung release the official JB upgrade and associated kernel source code.

In any case, it's nothing for the Apex devs to concern themselves with.

Dock icons have names, will this be in future versions, any plan?
[Android Apps and Games] thefatalepic:
I was under the impression that saving widgets was impossible...
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
If you save enough system settings, you should be able to get them, but I would never try to restore it to anything other than the exact same ROM with the exact same launcher and widget versions. Bottom line: if you want to copy a config to another device, you should be doing it manually. This is an Android limitation, not a launcher limitation, although Nova has a partial workaround in that it can put widgets back, but not their configuration.
[Android Apps and Games] carlo67:
I done it [widgets back and configuration ] on overcome rom 4.0 and 4.1 with ADW launcher with itanium Backup and it worked well

I can't do it with cm10 and Apex Launcher
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
That's with ADW Launcher, which is a Gingerbread launcher. ICS and JB, and their launchers, are different, though you'd have to speak to someone who knows a lot more than me to find out exactly how and why. You're not the only one to be annoyed by this, but last I checked the information thefatalepic and I have given you is holding true for ICS/JB launchers.
[Android Apps and Games] carlo67:
ok but it really silly, when get new tablet or new launcher, have to redo all the widgets AGAIN AGAIN

Beta 5 - Dissapointed:(

The infamous transparency bug in JellyBean still not fixed. This is the one bug that soooooo many JB users are waiting to be fixed. You only have to read the sgs3 JB forums to see that.

I dunno? maybe it's a very hard bug to fix. Some comment from the Developer about this would be nice.

I know that I and many others have stopped using Apex (and Nova too) because of this.

[Android Apps and Games] Jezz_X:
And we already told you that since it only happens on the s3 and with many different launchers its probably a bug in the s3 touchwiz roms and not the launcher wait until Samsung releases an official jellybean build or go ahead and flash cm10 for a test and see if it still does it then maybe you can complain
[Android Apps and Games] carlos67:
Just thought maybe, just maybe, beta 5 would have fixed it. But, yeah, the problem could be in Samsung firmware and not Apex. I won't complain in here again :)
[Android Apps and Games] Fr33L4nc3r:
Glad you realized that. It was like asking the butcher to fix your home's plumbing :silly:

Flash a decent ROM like CM10 as Jezz_x proposed, don't use a shi7ty ROM based on a leak :good:

With beta5 I didn't encounter any bugs or glitches so far on my S3, esp. the empty screen bug when switching from landscape to portrait is gone.

Good work!

BTW: the massive battery drain I've noticed with beta 4 was caused by Samsung's Drive Link app, although I just had it installed but not used. :/
[Android Apps and Games] Stylez Ray.:
Well, changed from Nova to Apex again as tablet animation was laggy as hell back then and it still is! Turning animation off fixes that problem for now though ;)

I see a dock background option now which I wanted really badly but it seems you can't change it already?!? Can someone confirm?
[Android Apps and Games] sdeft:
I also experienced lagging with Vertical Continuous. I found this only happens when I set the Portrait grid to 7 rows and above. Up to 6 rows scrolling is ok. This is not the only bug...Also the icon text labels with 7 rows and above do not wrap. So I am going back to beta 4 hoping that the developer will fix this.

Hoping someone more experienced than I can answer this question for me

Are there any benefits to installing Apex as a system app? I get a minor redraw hiccup when I go back to my home screen, maybe a half a second stutter. Will installing as a system app get rid of the stutter?

Also, would I need to install the Pro key as a system app as well?

what grid are you using in drawer ?
[Android Apps and Games] yomiguy:
Hi! It's the first beta I have installed since the last 1.2.5 version... Due to the big amount of issues it was bringing to a lot of users, but I couldn't wait more and I have installed this new one and runs awesome. The only small bug I have noticed is that sometimes I see on the left of a screen a little part of a widget of the following screen on the left like invading a little bit the screen I'm watching. However as soon as I move the screen it replaces perfectly.

Could it be due to the transition effect? I have set the last one, I suppose translate into English is wheel... Does anyone experienced this bug? ;)

[Android Apps and Games] truewt:
No you don't have to get a pro license for that. You can adb and push it through, root explorer cut and paste + permission change + reboot, or use some utility app like tib which can do it for you.
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
That's not what he was asking. ;)

I don't think there are any performance differences between installing it as a system app or not, and I know for a fact that having Apex as a system app and the Pro key as a regular app works fine. ;)

As for the stutter you're seeing, what Apex version, what device, what ROM, what kernel, what CPU speed, and what transition effect are you using for starters? We need a bit more information before we can help you with this. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] KMino:
Still getting FC's in beta 5 when using continuous vertical scroll in drawer.

Problem happens with anything larger than the default grid size.

Perhaps Apex could use Nova's scrolling code/settings? It's as smooth as a baby's bum here on SGS3/JB LI5.. It just lacks features, why I'm still here on Apex :D

Apex 1.23 was the last version to play nice here :( but then that was on ICS and am now on a beta OS with obviously buggy graphics drivers. Damn answered my own question lol :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
Apex and Nova are both closed source, so no, Apex cannot borrow Nova's scrolling code.
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
Thanks, stock rooted IMM76D.T999UVALH2, stock kernel, no CPU tweaks. Current Play Store version of Apex with Pro license key. Cube out transition.

It's generally the first transition immediately after returning to the home screen that is choppy. Other than that no issues.
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
Which device? Also, the Play Store version is still ICS based, the JB based version is still in beta. So you won't get the full benefit of Project Butter with that version just yet. It -may- just be that.
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
If you paid attention to my original post, or my signature, you would know it's a Galaxy S3. Also 4.0.4 is ICS and everyone who knows anything knows that. Next time instead of pretending you know how to help by acting like I didn't provide the correct information in the first place, just let someone else who actually knows MORE than me answer my question.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Milamber33:
A few people have asked a few questions.both here and in the Nova thread. Excuse me for losing track.

Aside from that, you're right, I don't have all the answers, but at least I know a few of the right questions to ask, so when someone more knowledgeable does come along, all the information is already available.

I knew XDA became assaulted by noobs, but what I didn't know was that people asking for help were actually picky about the help they were provided :eek::silly:

Seriously man, the guy is trying to help you, and you almost tell him to gtfo ?

As for your questions :

For the Home stutters, did you check the setting "Keep in memory" ?

Cube out might be one of the heavier one, hence lagginess (on first transition mostly).It was my favorite too, but I gave up for scale one.

Also, you might try the latest beta (even if you're not on JB), it might show some improvement.

I've been around a long time, and what he was doing wasn't offering help.

I stated my device and operating system in my first post, he was acting all high and mighty like I don't know how to provide details.

Regardless of that, keeping the launcher in memory does not alleviate the problem. It may very well be that the cube out transition has something to do with the stutter. I'll run some tests with various transitions to see if that affects it and report back
