I have also finally pinpointed one of the force closing bugs I still have. This is not the launcher apparently exiting after another app is launched (which most of the last page has been about).

When I update apps unrelated to Zeam, I often get a force close. I get the typical vibration (first a longer one, then after a pause three short ones), there is no message about it though...

First I thought it was just when updating apps that had an icon on the dock, but when I updated "3g watchdog" and subsequently integrated it into the rom (its a system app here) with titanium pro, zeam also FCd.

Swyped on my Galaxy 3
[Android Apps and Games] Gnaver:
Yea sometimes this happens to me too...that vibration like force close of an app...but most of times its normal. For example: Im watching some pages in dolphin browser and when i end it (no just leave but exit app) theres nothing on my screen beside the wallpaper...i must wait few seconds to load all icons and widgets and then its ok (while waiting phone is unresponsible)
[Android Apps and Games] bsoplinger:
Try settings-> applications -> manage applications. Then pick your stock launcher. Long click to bring up the info / uninstall window. At the bottom find the big button that says "Clear defaults" and click that. Then touch the home button and when you get the choice of launchers pick Zeam after making sure you clicked the always use check box.

I just saw Zeam reload after updating Apps on market on my nook color. Minor bug for great launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] matt040:
I just use Zeam launcher on my Zte Blade running CM7.1.0 (android 2.3.5), it's a very smooth and lightweight launcher that I like it very much. but apparently my phone always reboot after using it and after reboot it's back to the stock launcher (ADW launcher).

I'm hoping this problem can be fix soon, coz I really like it at first sight.

[Android Apps and Games] GadgetFreak:
He is saying that these folks asking about adding the same features over and over again, even though the questions have been answered numerous times, will continue to do so, so it is not worth it to get annoyed with them and it would be better to ignore them.

I would love this as well. I love this launcher to death. I would just like the app drawer close animation from before. It's choppy and a bit too fast now. Otherwise, this is perfect for me and does everything I need in a speedy launcher.

[Android Apps and Games] splattx_x:
First of all I think your big NOs are very rude.

Second, I'm sorry but I don't understand "the idea" what is it? Is it that people can't ask questions? Or is it that people can't give ideas and suggest features that the Developer of the app will ultimately decide wether they should/can be added or not?

So far I have only seen people asking questions and suggesting features in a polite manner so I don't understand the reason to be rude.

Just relax dude, a forum is a place to SHARE ideas not to IGNORE them.

hi all , anyone have the 1.4.0 version?????? thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] lioks:
First of all, thanks to you cloakt, you made the home app I was looking for :)

I just discovered Zeam and it was exactly fitting my desire of a light and comfortable home. But I am so sorry you changed the nice shortcut bar and slider on the left. :(

I reverted to the last version because of that, I hope some customization will be possible in the future.

Anyway, thanks again for all your good work!

Re: Zeam Launcher 1.4.1 released (now in Android Market)

Zeam is the best launcher I have tried so far. Well done!

However, I do get some force closes, especially when going from landscape to portrait. Can it be solved? Is there anything I can try out to help?

Re: Zeam Launcher 1.4.2 released (now in Android Market)

Is there a way to change the number icons per row and column in te app drawer? Adw launcher has it and I had 6 by 6 and I really liked that..and option to get rid of icon labels

Also maybe make it so you can change what side the app drawer slider is on...right now its on the right but maybe make it changeable to the left or middle if you can

i like 1.4.2 .....i think it strikes the right balance
[Android Apps and Games] 71baker:
I downloaded the latest and it looks much better than before , ill give you that. There seems to be some problem with spacing of the icons though , i have the icons in this order: Handcent , Opera , Contacts and then Spotify There is almost enough space between contacts and spotify to room another icon , if i add one though another disappears , also if i hold the spotify icon i can see that its orange box is much larger than the others.

Anyway. I still maintain that an option to remove the tab at the right and use the homebutton to open apps-selection (since that is clearly possible) would be better for users of small screen phones. the icons are so small now that i often click the wrong one.

I have a backup of the previous version that im gonna revert to. Atleast i can use the 2 buttons on the bar at the bottom for something and i would still have to have icons on the screen in the latest release...

@cloakt: Is there a way to donate for your great work?

I couldn't find anything in Android Market nor your website.

Usually I don't donate for freeware.

But If some developer is that close to his "customers", you would really make me happy, if I could spend you a few Beers or some Pizza ;)
[Android Apps and Games] penfold:
i'd also be happy to donate
[Android Apps and Games] :
just a note. it doesn't disappear it adds it and then you can scroll left and right. i did notice some spacing issues on some shortcuts.. which is effected by how the dev has made his icon. but the dock will get some tweaking for sure.

thanks guys appreciate it, i will make a plan to hookup some paypal donate stuff. and as always thanks for the feedback and keep the bugs / feature requests coming

Version 1.4.2 on Moto Backflip

Thanks for the launcher. The buttons were limited to what you could select from a list. Now I can have what I want visible on every screen. I like the dark background.

The launcher stays onscreen and the icons rotate with the screen if auto-rotate is on.

As I reported earlier the weather icon still displays too wide due to the text not floating over the icon properly.

See this post for a Backflip specific problem that still exists (which I don't know that you can fix).
[Android Apps and Games] jpen:
i know i already mention a few things that i think would make this perfect but here is a list of them and a few more...

1. option to switch app drawer icon to left side or center

2. in app drawer have option to change amount in each row and column

3. option to get rid of labels on icons

4. maybe different backgrounds for the dock...launcher pro has something like that and has a kinda Mac background and it looks really cool

5. have the home button activate multi view when you are on the default screen but when not on default screen the home button brings you there

6. dont know if this is possible but ability to have some widgets in the dock...like i have the sms unread count for my sms and gmail

i like zeam the best so far because it feels smooth and the sliding app drawer but the other ones like adw and launcher pro have a few things that i like as well that zeam doesnt have...so i think if it had some of these it would def be the best

3.1.3

Not sure what version I had last, but it worked... 3.1.3 is a mess: it either reloads like crazy when doing anything but looking at the home screen, or it just never stops reloading to begin with. It even reloaded several times when I tried to slide from one home screen to the next, or return to the main homescreen by double tapping the home button (I only have two screens).

I reverted to my last saved version (3.0.3), which aparently wasn't 100% functional yet either: it doesn't center the icons in the dock bar like I prefer (3.1.0 does, on Galaxy TAB 7.0).

It would be really cool if you (the developer) could do these two things--they'd keep people from needing to use some other launcher when a new update like this disables ZEAM.

1) add release dates to the changelog on your first post, so people might be able to figure out what version they had last that worked (according to when they updated last).

2) create a repository of previous releases so people can easily reinstall to those previous working versions while you work out the kinks in the new releases.

other optional additions to your service,...

3) add a donation feature to your app (I'll donate if you do this as well as add the other two features mentioned above).

4) you also might want to add a 'complete' changelog and/or repository and/or paypal donation button to your webpage.

It's a great little app you got here, despite it's current standing, and I've been using it for almost a year. I know lots of people really appreciate it. You might as well get paid some for your effort.

PS: For you folks who want them, I located previous ZEAM versions and posted them. PM me if any have malware or other problems, they were scavanged in the wild of the web (use at your own risk)
[Android Apps and Games] ItsDace:

3.1.3 is working perfect for me. Anyway good ideas.
[Android Apps and Games] 5hi7h34d:
Tough. You'll get over it.

Why would people constantly suggest bloated ass features for a minimal high performing launcher is ridiculous. If you want eye candy get Go Launcher. If you want performance and no BS use Zeam.

Don't try to make ZEAM a bloated POS like the others.

The worst launcher ever !
[Android Apps and Games] TheCreat:
Least helpful post ever !

Seriously, why don't you let the developer know what you didn't like about it if you're taking the time to actually post here? Did it not work correctly or give any problems? Or do you just not like the minimalistic style? In the latter case I'd just recommend Go Launcher, otherwise help him fix the problems if there are any.

Horizontal scrolling in the App Drawer is really messy for me. No matter what direction i scroll. So many times i will just stay on the same page or will go the wrong direction.

So i switched back to vertical scrolling.

Is there any chance we could be able to hide Apps in the App Drawer?

And the Home Button too (would be cool to display a 4x5 Grid instead of a 4x4.5 Grid)? That way we could see more while we see less ;)

The Wallpaper in Portait mode zoom in bug is still there too.

Otherwise great launcher. Oh and i support a donation button.

I want the old animation back...please...the one from version 2.something
[Android Apps and Games] TheCreat:
I've just updated 2 apps from the market - as normal - and while doing so (to be more precise: after the first update was done installing) Zeam force closed again. I let the second update complete and exited the market. Zeam restarted and crashed again, four or five times in a row! I was about to reboot in the hope that would fix things, but when the power menu was open the crashes finally stopped, and luckily didn't resume after I closed it and went back to Zeam.

I don't know if this makes any difference, but both apps were integrated into the rom via titanium (it basically just moves them from /data/app to /system/app). I've seen Zeam crash on updates of pure user (normal) apps as well though. The updated apps were "3g Watchdog" and "Android Terminal Emulator". It's also worth a mention that whenever Zeam crashed due to an app updating, that app's icon is removed from the dock or homescreen(s). I don't think Zeam crashes when updating an app that has no icon placed anywhere, not sure though...

I hope this helps track this annoying bug down so we can enjoy this otherwise great launcher again :D
[Android Apps and Games] erickwill:
Zeam is awesome! However, the main issue that I felt in latest version was that Zeam is not too smooth as previous 3.0.7 version. For example, I need to cross the entire screen with my finger to change to the next grid. It's not too fluid as before. Please, would be wonderful to have this issue fixed, since it compromise a good experience for Zeam users.

Thanks and Regards

[Android Apps and Games] 5hi7h34d:
Only issue I've had lately on my Optimus V is it seems like every so often if I touch a dock icon whether accidentally or or on purpose the icon will highlight, the entire system seems to hang, then 10-20 secs later the icon either pops back down to the dock or it ends up on the homescreen having been moved.

Very odd and frustrating. This behavior started with the version after 3.0.7, whatever that was. (Only reason I recall is many others had other unusual issues when this version went live)

I really like this launcher. It works even faster than stock (ugly) launcher on my smart phone.

3) Lock/Unlock

[Android Apps and Games] crashff:
3.0.7 was the last stable for me. Every update since then, the launcher would continuously reload causing the screen to flicker, and icons would either disappear or 1 app would get 2+ overlaping icons belonging to other apps on the phone.

Also, sometimes when waking my phone up from standby, the screen would immediately go to the calling screen as if it were in a call (with the END option lit up in red), but with no number dialed.

This continous reboot effect was causing my battery to drain a bit faster as well.

Love the launcher overall and am VERY happy with the increase in performance on my little P509T (TMO Optimus T)

Zeam Launcher 3.1.3 crashes during launch.

Hi,

Zeam Launcher is without doubt the best launcher out there! Thank you for your great work.

I have one problem with the latest update though: Every time Zeam Launcher starts (boot or restart) I first get one error vibrate from the phone and nothing happens, then I get three error vibrates and the screen goes blank. Finally Zeam launches normally, but it takes a while. It seems like it crashes during launch every time.

I'm running it on a Samsung Indulge.
[Android Apps and Games] elbioleg:
I have exactly the same problem. We have 3 Samsung Galaxy S with this ¿bug?, one with Froyo and the other two with Gingerbread.

BTW, the launcher is awesome, I only miss the possibility of ordering my apps in the "app drawer" as I want: custom, more used, etc. Zeam only allows alphabetical ordering.

I really like this launcher. I love the 7 apps on the bottom of the screen. I have an Infuse with the dpi set at 200. This gives the infuse (which already has killer real estate) so much more screen room for your wallpaper or anything else you might want to post up there. Nice!

Orientation switch

I've been using this app for a long time now (I guess it was quite soon since I switched to android os).

I was just wondering why the app does not react to system orientation switch changes.

I know there's a specific parameter for the orientation within the app settings, that it's useful if you want your system to change orientation and Zeam not (and viceversa); but the possibility to make Zeam act as the rest of the system directly form the system switch would be nice.
