Can any one port Sony Xperia S Widgets & apps? The social pane and all? Big thanx in advance...I tried installing but didn't succeed...I'm rooted!
[Android Apps and Games] tngjs1230:
what change 9c ver?
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
The cosmic flow wallpaper runs pretty well on my X10 mini, which has almost the same hardware as W8. Perhaps on the W8 there will be a little more lag, due to the higher res screen.

@ra3al

It's possible to translate the Preferences menu in french?

I can do it! :)
[Android Apps and Games] blueowl0708:
Hi ra3al,

Thanks again for this excellent mod - I was looking for a way to remove the 'Theme' panel from the S Launcher and stumbled across this which is perfect!

I'm not sure if you saw this question before, but there are other xperia s widgets/apps that aren't currently working on this version of the S launcher - namely things like timescape widgets and the social pane stuff - is this something that can be fixed? If you don't fancy/don't have the time if you could advise what needs doing then I will try it myself.

Also I've noticed that the alignment/height of rows is slightly off on the current hdpi version. Please see attached screenshots for a direct comparison between standard Xperia S launcher and your version - it's most noticeable by the size of the google search widget and the postion of the app drawer icon.

I'm not sure if it's fixable, but if you could take a look that would be great.

Cheers!

I have updated the revision history with info about revisions: 9, 9b and 9c.
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
I tried to modify Timescape and the music player and widget to work on non XPERIA devices, but did not succeed so far. I guess the social pane widgets cannot work without the Timescape app.

Work great on Nexus S. Thanks a lot. :D
[Android Apps and Games] phayz:
I agree with others' comments that this is launcher is very good. I have two requests (one of which I have mentioned before):

(1) Enable an indicator of unread SMS messages, missed calls, possibly other services.

I don't know how much effort is involved or whether it's even possible. I know other launchers offer this feature but it may be a cause of bloat. I have downloaded a widget which does this but I can't move it to the dock because it's a widget, not a shortcut.

(2) Trebuchet launcher uses a halo effect when you touch an icon, also when you're placing a widget or shortcut on a home screen. I really like this instead of the block of colour used in the app drawer. I don't mind the transparent green stripy background used when placing a shortcut or widget on a home screen but I definitely prefer the halo.

(3) We now (as of about Revision 9C (?) have the option of automatically hiding the app drawer page indicator. This is great, because it gives more room for icons, but when the indicator is shown, it overlaps with the top row of icons. I'd like to see 3 options: (a) no page indicator, (b) autohide indicator and (c) a different style of indicator shown just above the 'Home' icon.

(4) Enable the wrapping of icon labels in folders. On home screens and in the app drawer, labels are wrapped so I don't understand why they're not wrapped in folders.

I again say that I LOVE this launcher. Of these suggestions, number 4 is the only option which I would *really* like to see implemented.
[Android Apps and Games] thehackersz:

[Android Apps and Games] Code124Y:

I'm Currently Using Xperia S, But I Wanna Add Xtra Homescreens In It

[[[Without Modding]]]

As I Install these Homescreens It Asks Me To Replace the Original Home Screen

Thats Scary Coz If The New One Crashes Or Make Problem I Can't Get The original

Old One Back,, Cab I ???
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
Currently, the only way to install this on an XPERIA S or any 2011 XPERIA with original firmware / ROM is to first remove the original Home.apk and a lot of the widgets, which I don't recommend.

I'll make another version that will not overwrite the original APP and users will be able to have both variants installed at the same time ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
I will be adding features like:

- Resizable widgets,

- Indication for unread SMS messages, missed calls, etc.

- User customizable icons and shortcut titles

and probably some of the other suggested features.

But I cannot promise yet how soon this will happen. Adding these features will require quite a lot of work. Please keep in mind that I don't have the original source code of the launcher and I have to reverse-engineer everything, which makes the work much more difficult. With every change I make I am doing my best to preserve the performance (lightness) of the launcher as close as possible to that of the unmodified version.
[Android Apps and Games] flshg:
Kudos to you sir, I know how difficult adding new features in smali is, I don't think a lot of people realise this.
[Android Apps and Games] phayz:
Wow! I honestly can't think of anything else I'd like to see. I can only imagine how hard it is to add these features without the source code. I would have thought it was impossible, but apparently not. :D

It's time I thought about making a donation, given that I'm asking for so much.
[Android Apps and Games] DaXmax:
@ra3al seems legit with this all these features... why not add this to play store.... Oh wait, Sony's property.... :/

On which phone and ROM are you experiencing this?
[Android Apps and Games] highbud:
I think its one of the smoothest launcher I've tried. But I experienced missing icons in the desktop after rebooting. It's happened if the apps related to those missing icons are put in to the SD Card.

I'm using optimus black with Zeus Rom.
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
Aren't the icons automatically re-added after the SD cart is mounted successfully?

it should be like that. but even after i wait for a while still no icons come up.

beside that is there any backup/restore option? thanx.
[Android Apps and Games] Odeira.Oloap:
So far, so good on my T-Mobile G2x.

A couple of things, though:

1. Some of the Sony (Ericsson) widgets that come with the launcher, when activated, near-automatically sends me an FC. Or maybe it's because I'm rocking an unrooted G2x?

2. The launcher also FC's every single time I update the Timeline widget from Android Pro Widgets.

3. There is practically ZERO slowdown on side-scrolling (homescreens or application tray) when I use this launcher in conjunction with a Live Wallpaper. Stock Android Gingerbread launcher is very choppy on a Live Wallpaper. Even Go Launcher EX stutters sometimes.

Anyways, thanks for this!

I'm eagerly waiting for future updates.

My default launcher is GO Launcher EX, wouldn't be so reckless to remove it if I didn't have anything else.

for the ones that cant install the sony launcher there is something that i learned and works for any version and variationa nd mod of it so far: decompile the apk with apktool, open the folder that was created, open the AndroidManifest.xml file and there is something that sounds like Shareduserid=Sony Erycsson (or soemthing like that, jsut look for something using shared user id) and delete it, then recompile the apk with apktool and then sign it and now it will install for sure, i did not discover this by myself, someone told me this or i read it somewhere on a forum, but it worked perfect for me

They probably meant that if for example you have 5 panes, once you reach the 5th pane and you swipe it once more, instead of hitting a wall (for a lack of better term) it will go and display the 1st pane. Basically it will have all the pane in a continuous loop.

[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
Adding folders in app drawer will be quite hard, but not impossible. I may implement it later, if it doesn't compromise performance.
[Android Apps and Games] ra3al:
OK, in the next version I will add a few more currently unused pixels (around 10px) for widgets, but it won't help much.

Meanwhile, you can enable auto-hiding of the screen indicator (Preferences -> Home Screen -> No Screen Indicator (Portrait)) - additional 35px for widgets

Also you can disable the icon titles in the dock bar (Preferences -> Appearance -> Show titles in dock bar (Portrait))- additional 20px for widgets

Another option, as ferotakis said, is to use 3 Desktop rows instead of 4
[Android Apps and Games] SafiXS:
