I haven’t tried Go Launcher, but I can see where that’s an advantage.

Personally, I use “Folder Organizer” which allows nested folders, with contents easily sorted or manually rearranged. Once the folder structure/contents is defined ONCE, you never have to repeat it... even when you change Rom or launchers. Just export before changing and import after changing. So I don't use the folder feature of the launchers and I don't notice this as something missing in Holo Launcher. Another nice feature: when you add an App it prompts you in notiication bar to associate the new App with a folder organizer label.. It may not be for everyone, but works great for me.

Request

I have stuck to Holo Launcher for the past 4 months.. Request d Developer for a feature.. Please provide an option to resize d Dock Icons.. Coz once if I add 7 icons it looks too congested wen the icons are of the same size.. So if the icons resize automatically.. Then it will be so good..

Well I have a problem. When trying to add a Widget the list of Widgets contains the symbol but the text is in white, so no visible. Touching an item on the list changes the background to Holo Grey and the text is visible. A bug or did I changed something by accident.

[Android Apps and Games] hadi_rena:
First try to change your launcher to see whether same bug is persist or not. If the same bug still persist then maybe it's related to theme on your phone. I didn't have a problem adding widget to home screen. Icon and text are visible
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:

I first installed Holo launher on a Smasung Galaxy 5 with GB, CM7.2, it had no lags, just wonderful.

Later I installed on a Sony Xperia U with stock GB (2.3.7), and it had no lags too.

But then I updated the Xperia U to stock ICS (4.0.4), and holo launcher lagged in desktop (no lags in app drawer), then I changed an appearance setting (unset "Label in single line") and the desktop lag was gone, but similar lag occurs in opening or browsing a folder in desktop, specially with many itens.

Later I tested "Labels in single line", when checked for desktop, desktop lags, when checked for app drawer, the drawer lags. I conclude that, on my Sony Xperia U with stock ICS, "Labels in single line" is the cause of transitions lags (independent of transition or none). Saddly there is no way to unset "Labels in single line" from folders, witch cause lags in all folder browsing.

Have anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a way to unset this on folders?

I'm having problem with RAM consumption. Launcher is fast with no hiccups but it eats 50+ mb RAM... I have only icons on homescreen, no widgets at all

<---Slide(it)d from my Desire X --->
[Android Apps and Games] MobiMikes:
Is the ram consumption causing you problems? If not, just ignore it, Android is pretty good at memory management. Holo launcher is using 28mb at present on my system but this fluctuates (for comparison TapaTalk is using 49MB just now, my browser is using 70MB)

You could try changing the screen/window cache/buffering in Holo launcher to lower quality and do a reboot to clear out the cobwebs.

How to apply icons pack?

First of all, congrats on this awesome launcher.

I'm using both the Launcher and the Locker apps and they are working great on my Samsung Galaxy W (GT I8150).

However, I came across some icons from Galaxy S3's TW5 interface and I would like to apply them. The problem is that I don't know how. The icons are in a .rar archive and contains a bunch of icons and a folder called SystemUI which also contains the following folders: drawable-xhdpi, drawable-sw800dp-xhdpi, drawable-sw600dp-xhdpi, drawable-sw360dp-xhdpi, drawable-sw360dp-hdpi, drawable-nodpi, drawable-hdpi, all full of icons. I think this would be confusing for anyone, and especially for me, since I don't have a lot of experience in this area.

Now, I assume these folders contain icons for different resolution screens. But I don't see anything for 480x800 (which is my SGW's display resolution). Or maybe it's this folder: drawable-sw800dp-xhdp. I have no idea..

Also, I don't know how to apply these icons so that I can select the icon pack from within Holo Launcher.

Can anyone help on this matter?

First of all thanks for making this great launcher.

I'm using latest holo launcher hd on my GSM GNEX on stock JB 4.2.1 .

If you want features get Nova or Apex. I personally like the featureset that already comes with this. Does the job and does it well.
[Android Apps and Games] ahmadsamhann:
but Apex and Nova doesn't support Froyo + Gingerbread :/
[Android Apps and Games] JohnnyEpic:
Agreed, that it is a solid launcher. I'm personally a fan of Holo. My entire family uses the paid version. Yup. I bought Holo launcher 4 times.

However. The dormant and non responsive dev has turned me off lately. I can't even get an email reply. I've been using it for quite sometime now.

Holo & Apex don't work beyond 4.x. I use a galaxy s3 so that is not an issue. The three teenagers (daughters) who have Evo's and Epic's are stuck in IcS-land. Usually I have my launcher and certain apps set up so I can be a walk through verbal tech support for my family. This is quite often. Wishing for a few extra features is not much to wish for. I'm glad your content on this launcher but some little things would be nice addition to an already great launcher. Folders (app drawer) has been mentioned numerous times. Maybe a few extra swipe actions. Two finger swipe up/down to launch other apps. I'm not bashing mobint at all. I was/am a big supporter of Holo but I'd have to say, completely dropping off the forum is not a great way to to keep the app alive.... He should show himself and let us know that the app is in continuing development.

I know. He's busy. Me to. Three teenagers, crazy wife (my fault..... :) Home Remodeling company in Florida, Window business launching in North Florida,I'm in school furthering my edumacation/skills. I still answer my customers emails.

And BTW. I do use Nova.

Take care,

I would be grateful if someone who has purchased Holo Launcher Plus could highlight the major benefits they get from the full version.

[Android Apps and Games] electricpete1:
I’ve been on pro a long time, it’s hard to remember.

Here is a list, just as a reminder.

Plus Features (Need Holo Launcher Plus):
* Unlimited configurable drawer tabs
* Unread count notifications for call, sms, gmail and K-9 mail
* Customizable notification badge color
* More desktop gestures: Pinch in/out, Two Finger Swipe and Double-tap
* Dock icon Swipe up/down gestures
* Support Go Launcher icon pack
* More transition effects
* Widgets overlapping
* 1x1 widgets in dock
* Other enhancement and customization options

I use the extra gestures, although two-finger swipe is a little tricky and double-tap won’t work if it’s not an empty area of the desktop.

I definitely use widgets in my Dock. My center dock has 6 widgets that display (and sometimes control) the following:

battery remaining %

battery temperature

wifi on/off status (click to toggle)

data on/off status (click to toggle)on

memory remaining – click to open Android settings running programs menu

# of programs running – click to open Elixir widgets list of running programs where can easily go to any running program or close any running program

There are 9 available homescreens and 3 avaialble docks.... it seems maybe that is more than the free version.

More than anything else, I use the program every day. If I use a program regularly and find it useful, I feel it’s only fair to reimburse the author. I have definitely got my money’s worth.
[Android Apps and Games] TeutonJon78:
Just got the plus version since on sale. It was working well on the old version, but lots of FC on the 2.0 version. If you setup a swipe gesture on a dock icon, instant crash.

Also, sight visual glitch. When it was working, I used Simi Folder as the swipe up gesture on the dock. The widget that renders was at the top of the screen rather than at the bottom by the dock.

This is the most well thought out launcher I have ever seen. This thing is really amazing at what you can do and how well it does it. I turned long press on menu button to call my camera app. Very cool!

I don't usually say much nice about a look and feel being a UI design guy, but I can say I really like what you have done. Everything lines up perfectly and I have plenty of options that are in the menu where I would expect them. The annotations under the menu items are descriptive and helpful. I found options useful that had never occurred to me in a launcher.

This thing is amazing.

Since switching to Holo from Launcher Pro, phone charging has become temperamental. If charging from either wall or USB, phone either does not charge, or battery drains, despite the 'charging' notification appearing. If plug is removed and reinserted, sometimes this fixes the problem; other times you wake up to a dead battery. I've reverted back to Launcher Pro, and the battery has charged 5% in the last 5 minutes, which seems normal.

Thanks!

Language Stuff and Dock Options

Hello guys i am using Holo-Launcher HD Plus for a few days now and i have some questions / suggestions:

1. as the user above me asks, i prefer manual language setting to cause of a translation problem. holo launcher runs in german on my Tablet but there is a translation bug in desktop, drawer and dock settings. Under the bullet "indicator settings" i can not read the first option. It is shown as "swengerutrezüstamink" (sounds like turkish or something like that - but it is not german). What does this option do? Can anyone make the right translation? If you can tell me in english, i can translate it into german as well.

2. Below that option is another option called "autohide indicator" and i really cant figure put what that option toggles.

3. Last but not least, i have a minor feature request. It would be great if it will be possible to show folder names in the dock also. Cause i have many folders in my dock and without the names below the folders it makes it difficult to find the out the right folder very quick. I guess / hope this is easy to implement.

i am looking forward to your answers/remarks.

Thanks so far for your great app.

[Android Apps and Games] gagdude:
2. Auto hide indicator is for when you are scrolling between docks (or pages) there is an indicator to indicate which page you are on. If you check auto hide indicator it hides the indicator when you are not switching between docks or pages. If you uncheck it the indicator will stay present and not go away.
[Android Apps and Games] bibio1:
Thanks a lot. Can you also tell me, what the option above "hide indicator" toggles? This one is not translated into my language and i have no possibility to switch Holo Launcher to english.

Correct translation of "show indicator" in german is "indicator anzeigen"

and by the way

the translation of "autohide indicator" is "indicator automatisch verbergen"

Maybe you can make a bugfix.

Having recently jumped to Pro mainly just for those swipe up/down feature, I found it exactly as had been described in this last August post: too sensible and no sensitivity regulation option. It just takes swipe many times when you only mean to click, to the point of being almost unusable. Don't know if it depends on the phone model and screen size, but it happens at least in my Galaxy S2, a model still very prevalent.

Sensitivity need to be reduced, or adjustable, to make this feature really usable instead of a source of frustration for paying users.
