You can rename folders already. Open any folder then long-press the title bar and you'll get a dialogue box where the folder name can be changed.

Just tried it out. Thanks. Was never aware of that. :)

And just disregard that first request I made. :p
[Android Apps and Games] _george:
Love this launcher and the continued development.

Keep up the good work :)
[Android Apps and Games] 5hi7h34d:
Minimal is good. With that in mind I think the only feature that goes with the approach is letting the user "hide" apps. That way I can simply hide all the junk apps and use the App Drawer to launch from and keep the home screens uncluttered and minimalistic.

Most any other requests I've seen recently in this thread are ridiculous.
[Android Apps and Games] szantos:
Thank you for developing this launcher!

For my low-end phone (Pulse) this is essential.

One little feature request:

Ability to hide selected apps in drawer (ADW custom catalog style)
[Android Apps and Games] EL TEJANO:
Just joining this thread so this may have already been discussed, but are there any plans to tweak the Zeam GUI for tablets? Instead of having the launch bar on the right side while in landscape mode, I think it would be nice to have it docked either above or below the screen similar to the way VTL Launcher does it.

[Android Apps and Games] sleepyfu:
lol, sorry but if its junk why do u have the app anyway.

Download simifolder, put all the apps you want to see in it, replace the main app launch button with the folder shortcut and you are done.

I gave Zeam a try with its new 2.9.5 release on my Galaxy Tab with overcome Rom, Gingerbread version. I is great. But still frequently reloading after returning from apps. Launcher pro has an option to be kept in memory. Can we have similar option for Zeam?
[Android Apps and Games] yunuss.10:
thank you :)
[Android Apps and Games] 5hi7h34d:
Reading comprehension for the win. I initially said:

"simply hide all the junk apps" is referring to the CRAP Virgin Mobile installs that can't be uninstalled unless I root.

Replying to that you say "lol, sorry but if its junk why do u have the app anyway.", and to that I say brush up on your reading comprehension skills. It really is sad.

So, next question?
[Android Apps and Games] sleepyfu:
no root access = sad, and that was not mentioned on your OP.

first you clown other requests being ridiculous then made a request asking the launcher to do more which does not equal to minimalistic. i dont think your request is bad, but your attitude is, which was proven by the above qoute.

[via XDA premium]
[Android Apps and Games] stangri:
You should have requested that Zeam roots your phone and uninstalls all the crapware then. Your problem has nothing to do with the launcher, nor should it be solved with the launcher. This is the most ridiculous request of them all.
[Android Apps and Games] 5hi7h34d:
Two posts in a row that really can't find a good reason that my request sucked so it my fault because I don't want to root the phone.

Bravo dumbasses.
[Android Apps and Games] crubbish:
This is rude and unreasonable post. If you look through the thread you'll see that possibilty to hide apps from the drawer is one of the most (if not the most) requested feature. Whether or not people should root their phones is completely irrelevant. My Desire S is not currently rootable btw. And if/when I have it rooted would you suggest I uninstall Camera or GTalk that I never use? Back to the point: it is up to developer to consider if this feature is worth implementing. But posts like yours just cause aggravation and bad feeling with other users.
[Android Apps and Games] sleepyfu:
Ok, i just quoted myself to answer the above post.

and if you're smarter and us, maybe you could make a launcher that wow us all.

sorry, cloakt for messing up the thread. i am not replying anymore to this matter. thanks for the launcher.

Calm down fellas...its not worth it.
[Android Apps and Games] FRSP:
Modifying the system may be an option for some users, and may have other benefits as well (those annoying apps can run in the background...) but it's not for everyone or the right answer in every situation.

Why such hostility to the relatively simple idea of avoiding the clutter, while not actually doing anything to the phone beyond the bounds of what applications & end users were intended to be able to do, thus avoiding the risk of accidentally uninstalling something that had an unrealized critical role in basic phone functionality?

Conversely, a simple "that's beyond the scope of this project" would be a good reason to decline, too.

Can anyone help me?

Using Archos 70 with "screen" back/home/search/menu buttons.

Zeam 2.9.5 - upon boot the home page is shifted to the left a bit (see image attached). Once I scroll home screens left/right, it settles on the correct horizontal alignment.

Oh, did someone on internet hurt your feelings? Poor baby...
[Android Apps and Games] pibach:
Also it is a bit sluggish in scrolling compared to Laucher Pro.

Anybody can help with these two issues?

I prefer Zeam over Launcher Pro because of better dock handling and less memory usage. But these two issues above are dealbreakers...

[Android Apps and Games] manekineko:
Not sure if it always did this, and it's a pretty minor bug, but it strikes me as odd that the order of the dock icons reverses on switching from portrait to landscape.

Portrait farthest left becomes landscape farthest top, whereas the opposite would keep everything in the same place, just rotating.
[Android Apps and Games] thunderror:
More features vs. No more!

Probably the only thing Zeam needs is the ability to use custom dock backgrounds. But then, probably any more additional features would only bog it down!

A bit more perfection on the infinite scrolling would do great too ;)
[Android Apps and Games] schiznik:
you can use custom backgrounds, just open the apk and replace the existing images with your own
[Android Apps and Games] mikeandjaimie:
Most of the world reads left to right, top to bottom.. in that case, left would be top when rotated.

[Android Apps and Games] jr67:
Yeah my app drawer scrolling can get alittle laggy at times and occasionally it opens to the previous remembered scroll position even though I don't have that option selected. But those are just minor issues. Zeam is still the best launcher around.

Gap at top of widgets

Just installed Zeam and really liking how smooth it is, customisable icons would be nice on the dock though.

One larger issue I've noticed is that there is a gap above widgets places at the top of the screen, for instance the 4x2 beautifull widgets clock which in any other launcher fits perfectly with the top and sides of the screen in any other launcher shows a gap between it and the notifications bar in Zeam.

Something is awry

I seem to have this issue allasudden also. Ill post more details once I figure out what is really causing it. One thing I see right away is "phone Idle" has consumed 34% of the battery which went from 100% to 27% in a little over 4 hrs. Generally in that time span on my typical day it's still hovering around 70%+.

The only difference is I switched to using Zeam as my "work" interface where I used to use LauncherPro while I was at work.
[Android Apps and Games] mmick:
I use Zeam 2.8.8 on my Android 2.1 tablet but I would love to have the latest improvements on it. Can you compile Zeam 2.8.9 as the Android 2.1 version of Zeam 2.9.5?

About Zeam 2.9.5 (and 2.9.x) on my Acer Liquid (Android 2.2):

- I also note that with Zeam 2.9.x (used to use LauncherPRO) it consumes a lot more battery than with 2.8.x / LauncherPro

- I also have the "microSD apps with duplicated icones". Yes it it fixed with a Zeam restart but it is a glitch neverthless

I apreciate all your work! Thank you very much.

Love the launcher. I do my own theming, and would love to be able to change my app drawer dock icon,a nd the home icon on the app drawer. Whenever i do, with only replacing the two png's in the drawable-hdpi folder, no decompiling and compiling, just replacing the images in the compiled apk, the launcher won't even show up as an option anymore.

Are there any plans to make this mod-able in the future, so that end users can use custom icons? If not, no sweat on my end, just wondering.

Thx, and keep up the great work.
[Android Apps and Games] erickwill:
Yeah, you are probably using a 2.2 rom instead a 2.1.

The new Zeam uses API level 8 while Eclair (2.1) supports up level 7.

Wrong signature error

Hi!

I use the Insanity ROM which comes with Zeam 2.9.2 preinstalled. It's amazing and I love it. great work.

I'm trying to update to 2.9.5, but i get an error when installing from the market (something about a badly signed package file). Then tried to download from the first post and couldn't also update.

Is there anything speciall I should do before upgrading or is it a problem with the package?

Thank you!

[Android Apps and Games] jesssiii:
I don't know that rom or what phone you have, but if it's not at least Android 2.2 it wouldn't work.

Although, if you have 2.9.2 I think you must have Android 2.2 .

If that's the case, try placing the APK in system/app with something like Root Explorer then reboot the phone. That may work.

I have Zeam installed on both my Nook Color running Android 2.1 via AutoNooter and my unrooted HTC Evo running Android 2.2.

Android market says my nook is not compatible with Zeam I guess because of Android 2.1 but as I said above I am already running an older version of Zeam that I obtained via XDA forums.

So did Zeam at some point change to be only useable by 2.2 and above devices because I know that wasn't always the case...

And I also remember that at one point development of Zeam had stopped and now it seems to have resumed...

Thanks in advance!

[Android Apps and Games] MongooseHelix:
The "pressed" color is what will show up when you actually touch an icon to launch or drag it. The "focused" color is displayed with an icon is highlighted/focused but not pressed yet like when using a trackball(for phones that have them) to scroll to a particular icon.

[HD2 General] zerosimms:
Hey all

I (like others) have been experiencing problems when typing on the HTC HD2, keys being selected when I haven't pressed them, random words appearing and backspace going mental.

Anyway this morning I decided I want to lock my phone in landscape mode so I downloaded an application called "change screen" version 2.78 (June 17 '09)

(sorry I can't post the URL as I'm a new member)

Google this "change screen 2.78" and hit the Xda-developers link at the top of the results.

I selected the following options within the app:

Enable = Yes

Run on startup = yes

Ticked the last box only, the one with the phone laying in landscape (physical buttons to the left hand side) Then saved my settings.

The next step I took was to type out an e-mail in landscape mode.

Instantly the keys became more responsive and accurate! Result!

However what is odd, when you press a button the highlighted character is displayed, but upside down and on the opposite side of the screen. (please note, this is only the preview letter). It doesn't really bother me, I just keep an eye on the key I'm pressing and that seems to work.

I thought I would share this with you in-case you are having the same problem as I had, I'd be interested to know if this helps your typing.

if i had a phone with sense i'd be able to tell you.

it depends on if its embedded or just a package..

I was thinking more along the lines of an update.zip to actually replace those framework files.

I didn't think it would be as simple as an .apk package installation.

I have hardly done any developing for android (yet) but wouldn't a logcat or dalvik readout give you enough info on which files are dependent on sense ui?

You throw those into a zip, sign it and put it on any device with the same version of android that hasn't been butchered by the manufactuer.

Update it and voila.

I doubt HTC went through the trouble to encrypt files specifically for each device..
