No, he's saying it's causing problems, and that he personally prefers it lightweight. You might think it's working fine, but if it's causing more trouble than good, his time is probably better spent elsewhere.

I'm pretty sure cloakt knows it's been requested, so no real point in arguing over it. Especially in the tone some is using.

In the end, he's not asking anything in return, and anyone is free to use one of the more feature-rich launchers.
[Android Apps and Games] quickstang:
I think lightweight is great and i'm glad the app is. I have tested some other launchers out there and I don't know where to begin because there are so many options. Kind of overwhelming. I however don't think adding the widget back in if possible will make it NOT lightweight. It's a highly used feature as you can see by the posts. No need to list how many requests not only on the thread but in the Marketplace about the topic, but the fact that focusing on it isn't something that's going to be bloat additions for the launcher. More like a basic feature.

The launcher is already a launcher you don't have to ask what these 20 options do because not many use them. However the scrollable widget is however something that is NOT a feature-rich option. All of that extra fancy stuff in other launchers is and i've never used it. This is why I love this launcher. I mean if I have to stick to 2.8.8, I have no problem doing so because it works without a flaw and has everything I need out of the launcher for my needs. I just wish I could update to the newer versions to keep it updated.

All we can do is just see how development goes. I have been trying out ADW Launcher as well, but have switched back to Zeam.

Whatever the case may be, I feel he may somehow incorporate it again in some way shape or form.

You are correct though how some are *****ing as in mad and angry, but that's not the way to be. Expressing your concern for what you would like to see or tips and help is another thing. This is what I am trying to do. But until then, 2.8.8 works fine, and those who HAVE to have it should use it as long as the latest version and other additions aren't that important. There are a few I would like, but I choose the older version as that option is more important than the additions.

This is my favorite Launcher for Android!

Keep up the good work!

Like to see the v3 of it :)
[Android Apps and Games] arsonist63086:

G2 - zeam 2.8.8 (app mem)
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
Still the best launcher for android. There might be others with lots more abbilities, but after time they all get slow and buggy.

Zeam just works!

Hope to get more updates soon.
[Android Apps and Games] Bob_UK:
Zeam is a great launcher, it does what its meant to and very fast.. Personally I don't need or want the bloat on the other launchers..

Its why I use and promote Zeam its a great launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] avalst:
I am huge fan! but after the gingerbread update zeam is having trouble on the EVO. I don't know what the deal is but the transitions are super laggy. I'm going to try to re-install and see if that helps. Anyone else on the GB EVO having issues?

Well a re-install seems to have done the trick. I'll leave the problem in case anyone else has issues after their upgrade
[Android Apps and Games] grudas:
suggestion - allow us to create our own dockbars :) kinda like widget locker themes? its the only thing im missing with zeam other than that i love it :)

I've did many searchings & was curious to the license for Zeam. I'm a huge fan and was curious if it would be a terms violation to theme (or attempt) the launcher & share. Thanks for the info.
[Android Apps and Games] Joooom:
Yep, tested to uninstall Zeam, the phone returned to normal, reinstalled Zeam, everything is gone inside the internal storage after a manual reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] af.wirapraja:
I always love this launcher for its minimalistic and its light weighted. is it possible for the dock to be customized?
[Android Apps and Games] lvnatic:
Is it actually possibile to completely remove it? :D

I just found out that I can open apps by pressing the home button, by asigning the action from the menu. So I could replace the dock with my own customized icons via Desktop viewer. It would look just like a dock but no option to add more then 4 or 5 icons, depending on the number of columns you use. This way I can actually customize "the dock" and still keep a very minimalistic look.

@cloakt please sir can you look into this? Im sure its pretty easy to do, removing stuff is usually easyer then adding them :D
[Android Apps and Games] jesssiii:
I use Desktop Visualizer to add any special icons/images I want to the dock. I use the "small" setting for icon spacing and if I only put 7 (or fewer) on the dock, it wouldn't scroll. Essentially, this would give you what you want without removing the dock, correct?

[Android Apps and Games] Sinth:
I love this launcher, used adw and lpp but this is by far the best imo becuse of the speed and minimalistic look. However i would like to request some features i miss:

- Option to remove the home icon on appdrawer since i can use back button and it looks nicer without it.

-implementation of search button to filter apps on appdrawer, like htc sense has.

Thanks for an awsome launcher!
[Android Apps and Games] kryptoner:
on samsung galaxy s2, it lags a lot, please do something and fix it..
[Android Apps and Games] mikeandjaimie:
I'm pretty sure neither will get added.. The author had made it abundantly clear that this is his own project, for his needs only and he will only be adding what he wants.. He only shares it with us to be nice. He ain't taking feature requests, nor does he even respond to them. Not to mention most of those have been suggested plenty of times, and ignored just as many.

[Android Apps and Games] mikeandjaimie:

On his twitter, cloakt posted a tweet yesterday that should get a lot of people excited...
[Android Apps and Games] kreoXDA:
Ditto. Haul your a$$ cloakt, fix your useless POS. And then shine my shoes.

P.S. this was of course a joke. It works just fine on my Galaxy S 2. kryptoner, something else is wrong with yours.

P.S.2. thanks cloakt, you are loved by many people, the neat and light launcher is great!
[Android Apps and Games] davwman:
You can thank my market rating and request for that. The dev definitely listens!
[Android Apps and Games] TheCreat:
I like the idea, but only if it doesn't add much overhead / size to the app. It's after all the primary premise of this launcher if I understand that correctly.

The only thing I truly miss compared to other launchers (Go Launcher EX in particular) is the grouping of widgets by source. Currently I have 12 entries for Widgetsoid, instead of just one entry that opens a corresponding list.

Edit: found out it's not the launcher's fault (or responsibility) to display the widget list. See couple of posts down.

PS: I primarily came here to say thank you so much for this launcher, I love that it's so responsive and compact while still being pretty :D

(and as far as I know bug-free)
[Android Apps and Games] mystichobo:
Is your phone rooted?

You can always install the widget picker mod
[Android Apps and Games] MongooseHelix:
Considering hiding/sorting apps in the app drawer is probably the most requested feature, I don't think anybody can or should take credit for it besides cloakt himself. Not trying to take away from your rating and request but saying we can thank you for it sounded arrogant to me.
[Android Apps and Games] TheCreat:
Yes I am, and sorry, my bad! I wasn't aware that the other launchers were only able to combine the entries because of the ROM I used (which had this pre-installed). For anyone else interested: Link to app (root required)

That makes this launcher perfect for me as it is, thanks again mystichobo (for the answer/help as well as the launcher ;) )
[Android Apps and Games] davwman:
Wasnt trying to sound that way, sorry if it did. been with zeam since the beginning and have followed his work on a regular basis. Never saw a mention of it being used and literally within an hour of posting my feedback it was mentioned on twitter. Thought I was doing a good deed...
[Android Apps and Games] MongooseHelix:
No worries. My reply was harsh so I apologize for that. Leaving constructive feedback is helpful and could only help the prospects of it getting added. Timing seems more like a coincidence but either way, I'm glad to see Zeam and cloakt active and keeping our phones fast and lean.
[Android Apps and Games] cthulhu501:
Good news to see this project continue ;)

works fine on low or middle end device like my ne zte blade

Thank's a lot for the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] gravityz3r0:
Hmm, i love Zeam on my SGS1. However, on SGS2, it lags terribly when scrolling in the app drawer and i have no idea why. Hopefully it can be fixed in the next release because it's working really smoothly on my SGS1.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] gravityz3r0:
Please disregard, for some reason now the app drawer is working perfectly smooth again, maybe it takes time to b loaded into memory or cache or something like that. Weird indeed.

[Android Apps and Games] :
just to let everyone know, i haven't implemented this feature yet. the tweet was used in some consideration :) i have been rewriting a fair amount of zeam lately, so maybe we can expect 3.x.x series soon... no major new features yet
[Android Apps and Games] strickyy:
Could u implement changing icons in the dock? That would be the cream on top of the pie for me! :)
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
Hide apps in drawer would be very nice.

Landscape view and different columns/row settings for portrait and landscape would make that launcher perfect.

Zeam is still the best and fastest launcher missing only those three things!
[Android Apps and Games] Mitchou73:
Hello,

I think I've a problem with Desktop Widget with Zeam.

I've buy Weather Pro app, and when I put widget on my desktop, they won't refresh. I've to restart Zeam to have new weather information.

And idea ?? Bug ?? Config ??

Thx a lot ^^
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
Maybe you forgot to turn on synchronisation? Open the app and look for that option.

I never had a problem that zeam wouldn't update my widgets. It's always an app error.

You can use Desktop VisualizeR, add as shortcut, not widget.

I have one tiny thing to ask... can we have RGB for the selectors please?

I have some RGB codes I use in the UOT but I can't get Zeam to match using the colour wheel. It's only noticeable to my OCD of course :-)
[Android Apps and Games] bub181:
Hi cloakt! Thanks for the new version. I like it a lot. Would it be possible to give an option to change the size of the dock icons in a future version please?

Long time LPP user, just tried this for the first time. Looks and feels very good - make the app drawer horizontal and I'm switching to Zeam :)
[Android Apps and Games] aydc:
Great launcher. Small and fast. Two feature requests:

1) Icons in the dock are too small. An option to change dock icon size would be great.

2) Swipe up down actions should include running a custom app.

@cloakt First of I would like to thank you for the wonderful launcher app. Zeam is my launcher of choice for FroYo. The only thing that I find a bit annoying is that it's translated only in English. Do you plan to translate your launcher in other languages soon ?

Keep the good work !

the dock is full of all types of (default ?) apps, I keep dragging them off but it remains full.

anyone else seeing this?

[Android Apps and Games] GeobMcFly:

[Android Apps and Games] jr67:
The update mixed up the order of my dock icons which was easily corrected. Besides that I've had no other issues.
[Android Apps and Games] jesssiii:
I had one extra icon, which I removed. Then had to reset the action bindings, which had gone to default. After restart, all was well. Perhaps restarting will fix it for you.

"action shortcuts removed" - why? Action shortcuts are perfect for dock, for control screens, notification bar :confused: Every day I use action shortcuts 100x! Reinstall back 2.9.6 :(
[Android Apps and Games] yakir:
problem solved

After removing about 50 icons (most the same, repeated) all is OK.

I am also wondering why the actions were removed from the dock. It is a useful option. What is the down side?
[Android Apps and Games] yken:
Once I read here developer is doing this launcher for his needs. So he does not

want requests.

What i see is, in newest versions he is not adding new things but he is removing some usefull parts like widget scrolling and now actions.

What will he remove next? Any idea?
[Android Apps and Games] elhennig:
If you are not happy with what the developer does, start your own project or use something else. I read this quite often here, that people complain about features not being implemented. At the same time those people claim that their ideas have to be implemented (best finished yesterday).

Even if this piece of software is free, it does not mean, that it belongs to everyone. The developers use quite a bit of there spare time to program their tools und can therefore determine what is being implemented and what is not.

What you can do as user is to ask politely for features. However it is still the developer's decision if your wish is taken into account or not.

Hello Cloakt and thx for your great work, this launcher is the best I ever tried on HTC Desire Oxygen Rom, very light, speedy and only the necessary, perfect for me :)

I would ask : Is it appropriate to ask new features here ?

Because it would be great if you could add a new item in Home button behavior options : "Back to default screen and Sceen preview", I mean first push on the button to go back on the default screen, and if you are already on it, show the screens preview.

Is it possible ?

Thank you very much :)

this launcher miss the option to choose the way to display the icon in app drawer...I mean vertical or horizontal. I think this option won't consume more RAM and it will be great to have it.

Now a question: why the launcher go to landscape when I turn off this feature in CM 7 options?

Need to manually refresh

I installed Zeam launcher on my Galaxy Tab with custom ROM (Overcome 2.0.1 based upon Gingerbread 2.3.3). I ran ADW and GO launcher previously but both gave me problem. No major problem with Zeam so far.

There is just one pet peeve - whenever you install / remove an app, place / remove an app shortcut on the desktop etc., the launcher does not refresh automatically (ie. icon of new app does not appear; icon of old app remains, which fails to run the app because it has already been removed).

You need to manually restart Zeam launcher to refresh the desktop and apps drawer to see the changes.
[Android Apps and Games] dvdrewinder:
I updated from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1 and have been getting some fc's from 3.0.1 since I updated. Does anyone have a backup of 3.0.0 that they could post so I can see if it might be my phone. I forgot to back it up myself. Thanks.

Feature suggestion

Hey Guys

Loving Zeam so far on my Xperia x10 Mini Pro running Cya-no-comb 1.6.

One suggestion I would love as a feature is the ability to add multiple shortcuts to the desktop in one action.

So you would long press>add to screen>shortcut>

Then you could add 'Multiple applications'.

Have the app list show with check boxes, choose which apps you want and then a short cut is added to all ticked applications.

Would make setting Zeam up after new ROM's flashed MUCH quicker.
[Android Apps and Games] pokey:
The one thing I would love is to be able to hide/remove the dock - the ability to do that is the only reason I use ADW
[Android Apps and Games] lotherius:
Been using Zeam for quite a while now although I'm a paid user of LP and even GDE (way back in the day!).. Zeam is just *faster*. Speed is where it is at.

That said, of course everyone wants the ability to hide apps. +1 that.

My question, though, is why Zeam has a seperate "Sensor Rotation" setting and does not respect the android system's setting for this? If I use my phone laying down, I don't want it to rotate, but it does anyway so I toggle rotation off in the system. Unfortunately, the launcher, if set to sensor rotation, will still rotate, even though it is turned *off* in Android settings. So I have to turn it off in two locations. Then, later, when I *do* want rotation, such as when in the car dock, I have to turn it back on in two locations!

Can we just have it respect the system setting and be done with it? Is there any reason not to?

Problem with uninstall in App drawer

Hi,

From version 2.9.6 up to 3.0.1 I have the problem with the App drawer. When I uninstall an App the startup icon still is vissible in the App drawer. I have to restart Zeam to get rid of the uninstalled App icon in the drawer.

Anyone else too? What is the solution?
