What is better with this one compared to AWD.Launcher? It seems like it is lacking quite a few options compred to ADW, where does it shine in comparison? If it is speed, I guess this is a GREAT alternative for slower phones like Dream, Tattoo etc., but as ADW runs smooth as silk on my Desire I am just wondering if there are other upsides to this.
[Android Apps and Games] rufiely:
ADW has really more option - this one is simlpicity ^^

The Dock on Zeam i love!!! is more flexible -add/erase/move apps ... where you can scroll on
[Android Apps and Games] rufiely:
Its a really good app. Especially i love the Dock. I have an LG P500 Optimus One and it feels very nice to work with zeam.

There something i would wish for, to complete it.

- An Option to make Folder/Categories at the Drawer - i can easier find apps and extract games

- An Option to hide the dock at the drawer(only need my button) ... so i can see more apps

Question: What makes behaviour-> manage wallpaper internally?

HELP from me: When you wish to translate Zeam to Germany make a project at ...crowdin. net project I will pleased to help you

iam new here i cant write htttp..... oO

######Finished################

WISH: AnFor more performance and a nicely feel/look an option to deactivate the "overshoot" ... i dont know the right word ^^

Inplementation: this we can find under Workspace/behaviour-> elastic scrolling

[Android Apps and Games] wingdo:
I am so glad I found this launcher. It's perfect as it is.

My first launcher was dxTop Pro, it was great until they added so many options the launcher became sluggish. My second launcher was Launcher Pro Plus, it too was great and fast and then so many options were added it became slower and slower. I moved to ADW and it was lightning fast but it has been slowing down with each release.

Please don't add so many options that this slows down. :)
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
I like this suggestion. Having the dock disappear when the app list opens could be very helpful on phones with small screens.

I don't keep the list app in the dock anyway, so having the dock visible doesn't help me close out of the list. To close the app list I use the back button like rufiely does.

Why not make hiding the dock when the app list opens the default behavior?
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
I fully agree !!

Please keep it so fast !

But only put 5 rows in homescreen.
[Android Apps and Games] Kr0nos:
i could help rufiely with the german translation, i'm from Germany too

Ich would like some kind of hiding apps in the drawer too, but as the latest posts point out : many options//features slow things down.

I have no idea of coding, but could you dublicate the code and add these features in a secound version of your launcher?

I don't know if there is a way to do this without coding (copying) every bugfix//codecleanup to the other version, but if there is, or if you could add the requested features "at the end of the source code" (not s.th. here and s.th, there is needed) this would sound like a good solution.

Now tell me how less i understand about cosing, and that this "idea" is complete bull**** ;)
[Android Apps and Games] gazout:
Hi,

Very nice launcher, and especially very fast.

If you wish to add multilanguage support I'll be glad to help to translate in French

G.
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
I have done a little bit of coding, making themes for another launcher. It involves a lot of testing, a lot of trial and error. Having two separate versions would require twice as much work, maybe even more than that. There just aren't any shortcuts that I know of.

Also, the reward is less. If you are working on something you use every day then there is a reward for every improvement. If you are working on something that you don't use there is not as much satisfaction in doing it right.
[Android Apps and Games] madman_cro:
how about 3d app drawer))
[Android Apps and Games] Dakar22:
boring comment

last update does not remove bug with margin at left after launching programs in landscape :(

and simple apps separation in app-drawer will be good enough. a simple line even without category name (takes up less room, and names are not actually needed) as in LG launcher.

may be ability to disable labels in app-drawer will be more useful than disabling labels on desktop

5 rows on desktop must be only as option, HWGA screen will look terrible with flattened and clipped widgets

Idea for Zeam Programer

Hi,

I'm a fan of Zeam !!!

3, 4, 5, ... desktops ... and light, and fast, and ...

Just an idea for Zeam porgramer :

When we choose 5 desktops in option, is there a possibility to have a cross organisation desktops, instead off only linear organisation ???
[Android Apps and Games] McKebapp:
Yeah, +1 on that.

That would make the orientation even faster. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] Dakar22:
to go from left to upper screen u first need go to central

its nonsense!

if so, make 9 screens as 3x3 matrix

besides flick up and down may be bound to some actions (show notifications or apps), this is more useful
[Android Apps and Games] crubbish:
This + hide the apps in the drawer would make it a perfection!
[Android Apps and Games] Dakar22:
idea

I have better idea. More flexible hybrid of apps categorization and hiding.

Its based on LG-like categories. You should add ability to make shortcut to any separate category (or several) from menu "add item -> action"

So you can add shortcut to menu with all categories you need instead of all apps

E.g:

You have 5 categories: games, media, internet, system and junk

You can add to dock (or desktop) shortcuts to Games, or to Media and Internet (in one icon), or even all except Junk

Anyway, you always can open all apps from context menu of desktop

An advantage over standard android folders is that its content is forever actual
[Android Apps and Games] rufiely:
Improvement:

- i wished a loop for the dock

- Categories for the app with one for HIDE

- ! take my own dock background in the option -> select picture from integrated viewer -> like devine wallpaper

- dock background option to deactivate the mirror effect of the icons

go on - love this home
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
Here is a workaround:

Menu button: Preferences: Action Bindings: Double tap

press Screen Previews, then back out to your home screen.

Now a double tap on any screen gets you one tap away from any other screen.

Using the "Home button" instead of "Double tap" is another option. Then you are only two presses away from any screen at any time.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
PLEASE, do not implement to much !!

Now the launcher is super fast...not, that it will be slow !
[Android Apps and Games] jspidah:
I'd like to see an option to remove the icon reflection on the dock, or maybe select your own dock image and some app drawer organization.

other than that, it is the fastest home replacement out there
[Android Apps and Games] cubewalker:
it seems nice!
[Android Apps and Games] Dakar22:
If you are completely satisfied, just stay with current version.

A big number of functions will not slow it, only errors in implementation

E.g. I dont use screen previews, because i have only 3 screens. But this (unnecessary for me) function is implemented!

P.S. Launcher Pro is superfast, but I dont like it for some reasons. Zeam is just fast
[Android Apps and Games] naguz:
More functions doesn't mean it gets slower, unless you actually enable the resource hungry ones.
[Android Apps and Games] jdhas:
It'd ridiculous how fast this launcher is!
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
Auto rotate

Nice Launcher!

On the Galaxy S (2.2), my system auto-rotate setting setting is not honoured.

I have set it up to auto-rotate in the Zeam settings but naturally, I'd like Zeam to honour my system auto-rotate setting.

Bug or feature?
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
I'd say feature. For me it's natural for Zeam, or any launcher, to behave differently than the rest of the phone. The behavior you want I would call a feature request. There are several possibilites here: Always Portrait, Always Rotate, Follow System. Someone could ask for Always Landscape as well...
[Android Apps and Games] Ethere:
Absolutely love this launcher. For one, it doesn't force my Samsung Captivate to shut down like LauncherPro. It's fast, and looks very nice. Great job.
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
Well the default launcher on Galaxy S, TouchWiz obeys this setting and I also think LauncherPro does?

Hence, Zeam is the odd one out.

I cannot envision why you would want landscape on the home screen and not in the apps.
[Android Apps and Games] dkelley:
I can imagine why I'd want to rotate apps but not the launcher. so from that point of view I agree it should be a separate control. which, by the way, is sort of supported by LP etc but zeam gives more control than LP does which I actually prefer.

if it requires you to click one more thing to have zeam operate how you want but allows you to have zeam do things that other launchers CAN'T do, then I would consider it a benefit, not a problem.

Bug or not ;-)

anyway, developer, brilliant work on 2.5! I love zeam already but the latest updates are fantastic!

edit: since my wording is REALLY unclear--- I approve of how zeam does thigns currently :-)
[Android Apps and Games] danberg:
Really well done. I love this launcher.

One thing I am missing:

In 'Action bindings' the possibilty to choose 'Contacts'
[Android Apps and Games] Judim:
Speaking of action biding, I'd love to have a possibility for the home button: "go to main screen and if reached make a screen preview".

Always a big fan of Zeam. The resizing widget feature works very well. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
The default launcher on my mT3G phone, running Froyo provided by T-Mobile, does not rotate at all. It's always portrait. Many other apps do rotate on my phone. I think a lot of the older, less powerful phones have launchers that are set up this way.

I can (just barely) imagine somebody running a low end phone with a keyboard that slides out in landscape orientation (like a Motorola Cliq) who might want always landscape for the launcher and auto rotate for the rest of the system.
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
Maybe we could have an option for "use system Auto-rotate setting"?
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Please ad in the next version the option to have 5 rows in homescreen !

But I like this launcher ! I changed from Launcher Pro to Zeam, because Zeam Launcher is the best !!!
[Android Apps and Games] hachoo:
Just changed from LPP to Zeam. Very responsive. Features like hide dock when app draw is open, and a customizable dock (can use space 1, 3+5) would be awesome.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Judim:
The dock is custimizable : Preferences/Dock/Item spacing.

small : 7 items in 1 screen

medium : 6 items in 1 screen

large : 5 items in 1 screen
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
great app

but when i reboot it not load the icons of my apps in sd
[Android Apps and Games] Dadi68:
I was faced an "overlap" bug with widgets.... in wildfire

(4 widgets in the main page: Beautiful widgets small + smooth calendar + droidstats + power widget)

And the dock is not so config-friendly like LP's

So back to LP, and waiting for a better version!

Dev, thanks for your good work, this program is great :-)
[Android Apps and Games] hachoo:
I meant like.

Space 1 you have an item, Space 2 you have nothing, space 3 something, space 4 nothing, space 5 item.

As in spaces between them like LPP can.
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
Any idea?

i use LG Optimus One with FroYo
[Android Apps and Games] notea:
How about adding *blank* shortcut or spacer to zeam, that you can drag into the dockbar. that would accomplish this?

as a personal request;

i'm currently on ADW (which got a nice speed and responsiveness upgrade with the latest version) which has an option to backup and restore my settings and homescreen layouts etc..

i like to try different roms out and end up formatting my phone all the time, an option to backup these settings in zeam would be great.
[Android Apps and Games] cheskote:
really nice launcher :D

The only things I miss to make it perfect:

- 5 rows of icons in every homescreen

- Export and import configuration

The first one is absolutely more important :)

Battery usage is also great, really improved comparing with the stock launcher of a X10i.
[Android Apps and Games] ransz28:
I would like to see a back-up/restore feature like LP.
[Android Apps and Games] hachoo:
Exactly! :) Either would be awesome. I usually only need Phone, Msg + App Drawer so the other spaces are kinda redundant for me... but just the option would be a good addition to an already great launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] 24v:
This Launcher is awesome. I love all of the features. The resizeable widgets was a great addition.

Would there be any way to hide the dock? Like set it to auto hide, then come back when you touched the bottom of the screen? Or maybe hide it with action bindings like you do with the notification bar?
[Android Apps and Games] ericizzy1:
hi, is there a way to save the setting and than restore if needed? thanks
[Android Apps and Games] n2droid:
Breathes new life to my old HTC Sapphire 32B:)

Wantlist (everybody has one):

hide text-description/icon-only mode for the launcher

backup & restore

but most importantly

a slightly more verbose changelog (e.g. more than 'tweaks and bugfixes')

and said changelog in the About page of the market.
[Android Apps and Games] :
thanks :) it was late and i was tired and forgot to update the market page lol. i think the main reason people like to complain about the changelog is they want to know if i remove one of their 'favourite' features before they update lol. 'tweaks and bugfixes' is just fine as far as most people are concerned. also, there is a setting to hide the icon labels in prefs > workspace > hide icon labels.

unfortunately for most; i don't see backup/restore as a major priority right now. the fact that restoring widgets isnt completely possible, due to android limitations, puts me off this idea more. zeam is also quite a minimalistic launcher, so i really don't think most people will take 4 hours to get their zeam setup back :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] n2droid:
I wasn't clear. I meant hiding labels in the 'drawer' or 'application grid' as you call it.

True, I wouldn't want you sacrificing its speed and simplicity for anything either :) it's not ADW/LP that have a dozen settings per menu. Backup/restore request retracted!
[Android Apps and Games] :
that actually isn't a bad idea ;)

:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
If I hide the labels, you will get too much space between the rows !

So please, make it possible to change to 5 rows !

Thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] Dakar22:
but what about bug mentioned on page 59?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8829489&postcount=584

it still remains. does anybody has it besides me and cronot?

and will any kind of categories be added in one of the closest versions?
[Android Apps and Games] :
i still havent been able to replicate this issue :confused: i was hoping it would have been fixed with the upgrade of the widgets api a few releases ago.. clearly not. what device / android version do you have? which apps cause the issue?
[Android Apps and Games] tmusall:
+1 for more than 4 rows. Thanks for a great launcher.

Any chance about the 5 rows? Didn't read any answer about this feature request.

If so, it would be my default home app for sure.
[Android Apps and Games] kkm883:
wow!!

Adw.launcher = 18 - 20 MB

Launcher Pro = 10 - 15 MB

Zeam = < 15 MB that is wow..
[Android Apps and Games] moitoius:
I have a sense ROM (rooted stock) and the HTC widgets don't show up in the selection dialog. Maybe they are using a proprietary widget host or something. Big pity because they work so damn well (without resorting to APN hacks etc.); are polished and look consistent (and consistent with the rest of the Sense UI).

Still doesn't stop me from using Zeam though :) - I just have 2 empty panels (that are holding thumbs for cloakt to add support).
[Android Apps and Games] :
hmmm i think addoyle meant sense launcher aka rosie and not just a sense rom. it is really next to impossible to use htc widgets in 3rd party launchers :( it is a pity
[Android Apps and Games] addoyle:
Yes, I meant sense with Rosie. I use SuperVillain and which is a sense Rom but stripped of Rosie and widgets for optimization but keeps some of the good bits of sense such as the dialer, people, messaging etc. The only sense widget I miss is friendstream and bookmarks but tweetdeck has replaced that although they could with developing a full screen scrollable widget. Visual bookmarks does the job for bookmarks although not quite as nice.
[Android Apps and Games] unreal973:
loving it!! thanks!

but an option to choose another icon for the apps in the dock would make it even nicer!;)
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Again, please make 5 rows in homescreen !!!
[Android Apps and Games] cheskote:
thumbs up to that :)

Great.

I really miss the sand wallpaper. It was on my phone from when i first installed Zeam long ago and i just left it.

I had to reset my phone and now zeam doesnt have the wallpapers included.

App Issue

Love the zeam launcher and would like to be using it on my up to date Android OS nexus one. Trouble is zeam keeps losing random app icons. It will operate well for a short time then unlock the phone and random no app icons. Letting you know so you can look into it. Hope it gets fixed soon as I prefer zeam over all the other launchers. Good work.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Why does nobody give an statement about possibility to make 5 rows in homescreen ???????????
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
I think the developer gets tired of answering the same question over and over again.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
They did never give an answer about the 5th row !

By the way, I like this launcher, and would not change back to launcher pro !

[Android Apps and Games] BeeGee_Tokyo:
5 rows request

Why are you all shouting for 5 rows?

IMHO (really my personal opinion!)

I get 8 rows for my shortcuts and programs on any launcher with Multicon Widget.

And most widgets are optimized for 1 to 4 rows anyway.

Keep ZEAM lean and fast. No need to add features that you can get otherwise.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Because with the multicon widget you can not insert widgets !

So please give us the 5th row !
[Android Apps and Games] addoyle:
Yep, keep it lean. I also don't understand why you need 5 rows when you've got up to 7 screens and an app drawer....
[Android Apps and Games] jomil:
I am an x10 user and our screens are taller than most, meaning only 5 rows look natural for widget placement... to much of a gap above and below with 4 rows. I really want to use zeam but have to use adw until 5 rows is an option.
[Android Apps and Games] Yusei:
hello

I am new to the forum

I leave here my congratulations to the creators of this launcher

this really great on my X10 Pro Mini

Where to download?
[Android Apps and Games] cheskote:
If so many people is asking for 5 rows the rest might consider it'll be useful :-P

This feature is really a must for X10 users.

An option to choose 4 or 5 rows in Zeam is now in my wish list for Xmas presents :)
[Android Apps and Games] jdhas:
In case it hasn't already been mentioned, the ability to set custom icons for shortcuts would be a really nice addition to this otherwise awesome, lean, and super-fast launcher. (+1 for 5 rows which is the only way things look "right" on a Droid X.)
[Android Apps and Games] ironlood:
what about the ability to switch the location of the dock bar.

as an example when I'm holding my phone in portrait mode and the dock runs across the bottom of the screen what about having the option to change the docks orientation from the bottom to run vertical on the left or the right side

[Android Apps and Games] jomil:
Bettercut works perfectly with zeam to make custom icons :-)
[Android Apps and Games] falleny:
I am using it...thanks for all your works.
[Android Apps and Games] jeffroiscool:
Great application, I actually prefer this over Launcher Pro, i would love some sort by alphabet feature for folders or workspace.
[Android Apps and Games] BeeGee_Tokyo:
5 rows

just saw in the screenshots in first post that there are now 5 rows.

guess it will be in one of the next releases

hope everyone who requested it is happy

and I hope it doesn't make the launcher slower.
[Android Apps and Games] :
hmmm, that is 5 rows showing in the apps grid and not on the desktop. however, custom workspace rows/columns is coming in the next release or so ;) wont have any negative impact on speed... i must say, i am not a big fan of this feature, but understandably needs to exist for tablets etc
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Thanks, so we are waiting for this update a.s.a.p. !
[Android Apps and Games] aladin6:

So far so good on my MyTouch4G.
[Android Apps and Games] zilexa:
In the new screenshots in the first post I see a widget for controlling various options like wifi, gps, flightmode etc. It has more options then my default widget has (X10 Mini Pro). Also, my default widget has become quite large since the 2.1 update, with dark background. I don't like it.

SO wich widget is being used in the screenshot? Might be a nice alternative.

Oh and thanks for the great update!
[Android Apps and Games] jdhas:
Looks like Extended Controls to me.
[Android Apps and Games] jomil:
Love the new update, but it broke the functionality with bettercut. Any other way to have custom icons?
[Android Apps and Games] LamboDroid19:
hey cloakt

1) thanks for the great and fast launcher..it the only one i use...i have tried all others but always came back to this one....been using it since version 2.3.0 :)

2) i have a feature request if it possible... in the pinch to zoom for the screen previews can u make it where u can rearrange whole pages like in touchwiz
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Now its perfect !!

Thanks a lot !

which version of bettercut are you using? everything is working the same for me in 2.6.0

Ah its working after reboot :-D wonderful!
