Really enjoy this launcher. I'm using it on CyanogenMod 6.1 RC1 with a CDMA HTC Desire and have been LOVING it. I like how small and efficient is and the customizable icon row on the bottom is awesome.

I'm having the issue with some apps losing their icons after rebooting the phone.

I have seen it with 4 apps now. CardioTrainer, V-Planner (a non market app I use from a great developer for dive planning) and both Angry Birds (yeah I know).

I have moved some of the apps to the SD card, and some are not. Whenever I reboot these apps go back to the stock Android icon. If I revert to ADW or another launcher the issue does not happen. I've tried reinstalling the apps, moving to/from SD card to no avail. Just curious if anyone else has seen the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] jdostal:
Scratch that statement. Just did more testing and it appears that if I move the app to ther SD card Zeam does not pick up the icon. Moved a few apps back to the phone, rebooted, and the icons were there.
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
I have the same problem
[Android Apps and Games] :
what devices and roms are you running? i put some of my apps on the sdcard, rebooted phone and then they are the default android icon, but when the sdcard finishes mounting it then refreshes the workspace correctly to the required icon for the app. seems to be working fine for me.
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
Lg Optimus One with original FroYo
[Android Apps and Games] jdostal:
Let me play around with that for a bit.

I'm on a CDMA HTC Desire w/ CyanogenMod 6.1 RC1, nightly #29 I believe.

I'll mess around with that and see what happens.
[Android Apps and Games] cronot:
Two small problems with the wallpaper: It doesn't follow the same alignment and screen as the wallpaper on the lock screen, or vice-versa. Let me explain it better: I use 3 screens, and using zeam normally, I leave it on the leftmost screen (i.e. , the 1st), then suspend the phone. Turn it back on: The part of the wallpaper shown will be the one from the center (the 2nd screen), when it should be showing the 1st screen.

That's not all though. If I leave zeam on the center screen and suspend, then turn the phone back on, the lock screen will be on center screen as always, but when I unlock the screen, it becomes apparent that the wallpaper on zeam is aligned a little down below than it is on the lockscreen, because the wallpaper shifts down.

That doesn't interfere with Zeam functionally though, the latest versions have been getting better and better. This is just a little lack of polishing, rather than a real problem, I think - I know for sure that LauncherPro doesn't have that problem, not sure about ADW.
[Android Apps and Games] Lyphen:
Lock screen displaying the default home screen seems perfectly logical to me.

But, I do agree with you that the misalignment of the lock screen compared to the home screen is a bit annoying. It worked properly if you disable internal management of wallpaper (but that messes up transparency for me).
[Android Apps and Games] jdostal:
Did a fresh reinstall and tested this out. A few of the apps (V-Planner, GPSTest) are picking up the icon but others (Angry Birds, Cardio) are not. The best kind of tech problem - the intermittent one! :p I can say that being I've been on the receiving end of many of those complaints through my career now...
[Android Apps and Games] Enhdojo:
BIG THX m8!
[Android Apps and Games] :
tested this with angry birds, couldnt find cardio. and it worked fine for me :confused: intermittent bugs are the worst lol, i will keep an eye on this and try to come up with a solution if i can replicate it... thx for the help
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
I know! I'm a java programmer!

Happens to me every time I reboot!

Only with the icons of the app in the sd.

If I restart the zeam it works fine

ps: it also happens with the optimus one of my girlfriend
[Android Apps and Games] :
it happens because zeam starts before your sdcard is mounted when you boot up your phone. it cant load the icons of apps saved on your sdcard. then once your sdcard is mounted, zeam refreshes the desktop icons and the appdrawer.
[Android Apps and Games] jomil:
i dunno if it's just me but the screen seems to be unalligning itself after a while... to try and describe, im sweeping left to a screen and the widgets all look a few mm too close to the right. fixes after reboot but only for a short time... anyone else? x10i. happens with elastic screens movment both on and off.
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
it is so ... you can not fix as it does launcher pro?

I think that Launcher pro is auto-updated shortly after

another thing .... I can see the names of the app in two lines?
[Android Apps and Games] eliasn:
Maintains the previous applications screen

Great launcher!!!

Is it possible to maintain the previous applications screen (android screen with panels) instead of the new (scrollable screen)?
[Android Apps and Games] ransz28:
This is a really great launcher and its very smooth! Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] :
seems this is a common problem on devices with 2.1 (eclair). normally occurs when you exit fullscreen apps like camera or angry birds lol. havent found what is causing this yet :(

i cannot fix this issue until i can replicate the problem. it is still working correctly for me.

i do not understand
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
have you froyo??
[Android Apps and Games] :
yes i have froyo
[Android Apps and Games] evilpig:
Damn, I really wanted to try this. Got it from the market and went to open and its repeatedly force closing. I click force close and it pops up again. I'm gonna have to power down and up.

Hopefully this gets fixed

BTW Using the newest Super D on the G1
[Android Apps and Games] MillyMoo106:
i really like it! once portraint mode works i will use it all the time
[Android Apps and Games] datajosh:
I get this too but besides that, I love it! Glad to have it on the market now too so I don't have to keep checking for updates :D
[Android Apps and Games] le_lutin:
For me this bug disappeared with the last update. It's the perfect home replacement app now.
[Android Apps and Games] monkeyberry:
1.2.2 running sweet on nexus . superrrrrr smooooooth
[Android Apps and Games] datajosh:
Just checked on the latest update and it's gone for me too! Very happy now, just needs landscape support and maybe hiding apps in the drawer and it'll be perfect :D
[Android Apps and Games] monkeyberry:
hiding apps in the drawer? hmmm interesting one, never thought of that.

i vote for folders in the drawer.. that you can label yourself (and skin) and you can pack what you want where you want
[Android Apps and Games] :
what fw is the super d rom? would it be possible to get logs for the crashes? never heard of anyone with issues on the g1
[Android Apps and Games] desesan:
This is by far the best home replacement app I have used and most of what I have wanted in a home. 5*

The only thing holding me back from setting to default is the lack of customization in the two soft keys. The screens is nice, although double tap would be better.

Makes me wish I had this on 1.5. ;D

Please let us customize the shortcut keys!
[Android Apps and Games] magicdroid:
+1 for more customization options of left and right buttons (please add an option in the button action settings to add any application to either left or right button)

runs smooth!
[Android Apps and Games] crubbish:
1.2.2 is running very smooth cloakt, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] jackiechan8:
Hi, just wondering if you could implement some themes for zeam? I would love to see one like the espresso launcher :)
[Android Apps and Games] erezak:
Very nicely done. Kudos.

Hello working fine on X10.

Only the phone tab leads to a blank page (then crashes).

[Android Apps and Games] adrenalinerush12:
I love this home replacement! However, on my Droid Eris, none of the widgets work with this. They will add to the home screen, (for example the YouTube widget), but when you tap on them, they do nothing. Everything else works, just not Android widgets. On 2.1 btw. Don't know if this is a known bug or not, but it's annoying as the widgets are just sitting there as eye candy and don't do anything.
[Android Apps and Games] marvin02:
Just tried Zeam out on my Backflip and I really like it in limited testing. It seems very fast and I like the configurable buttons at the bottom of the screen.

I use bluetooth a lot and Zeam, like every other home replacement app I've tried, does not allow the full use of the few bluetooth controls. Using the stock home when I connect my stereo bluetooth headset or my car radio I can just press the play button to start the music player where it left off. The Next/Previous song and play/pause buttons work. When running Zeam these do not work.

I use a Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 bluetooth stereo headset and a Dual XDM6400 head unit with the optional Dual BTM60 Bluetooth Adapter.

Another feature that I would like to see is more choices for the buttons on the bottom row. Contacts is one option that would be nice to assign to one of these.

I will be keeping track of Zeam, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] jcrabapple:
Re: Zeam 1.2.2 released (now in Android Market)

I've used like 5 or 6 different home replacement apps trying to find the perfect one with speed and features. I was using Home ++. But then I got zeam. Wow is this thing fast or what? Great job! Option to hide the top status bar would be good. And more options for the side buttons.

This app is fantastic. Thank you!

[Android Apps and Games] htcmagic:
Running great on Nexus. Thanks Cloakt.

I have 9 screens full of widgets and is running really fast.

I had pandahome installed for speed, but this is way faster. Goodbye panda.

I was looking for a home to have the launcher button at the bottom and when clicked to show the apps and click again to hide, and this does exactly that beautifully. Like the scale animation too.

A great addition would be to have 4 customizable buttons 2 left and 2 right of the app tray launcher. Live wallpapers would be great too.

But I am way happy as it is.

Thanks again for this great work.

I'm still getting some phantom images when using the trackpad to scroll through items on the homescreens.
[Android Apps and Games] dantehho:

[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
very strange

Can you tell me where I can get your the apk for your launcher? I have a rooted Nook Color but it has no market access yet. I need to side load all the apps. Would love to try it out on this. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] 7lucca:
hi,

recently i've noticed strange thing about zeam. let's say i'm in the home screen, i launch some app for example handcent, i rotate my phone so it switches to landscape mode, then i quit handcent with "back" button to the home screen but i keep my phone in landscape mode. then i launch handcent again, of course it is in landscape mode also and once again i get back to home screen with back button and thats the moment when things mess up. when i look at the home screen the gap between the left edge of the screen and my icons widgets etc on the left side is bigger than on the right side. its like the icons on the left were shifted about 1mm to the right. its clearly visible with big widgets like snowstorm 2x4 widget which i use. i just want to know if its just me and my system (im running stock 2.1 on samsung i5700).

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Richardarkless:
System version please

Hi this is aimed at the zeam dev, I have been developing a rom for the tmobile pulse (huawei u8220 and u8230) and because the pulse has such a low amount of memory it would be cool to have this included in the rom by default

so please can you make a system version of the launcher

Sorry I cant post a link to the main thread as I am a new user
[Android Apps and Games] jomil:
Am i the only one experiencing my live wallpaper dissapearing and reverting to a default wallpaper?
[Android Apps and Games] wachalookinat:
love this!

I am running axura 2.0.5 and just wanted to drop by and say that zeam is hands down my fav alternative launcher. In my opinion better than any "paid" competetor no contest. Keep up the good work dev!:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] michi123:
Massive memory leak

Just installed Zeam and haven't read the entire thread - so forgive me if my post is redundant....

Just noticed that every time after opening the app drawer the zeam process grows by about 1-2 MB as shown in System Panel. This closes more and more background apps, until it reaches somewhere around 70-75(!) MB of RAM usage...and then force closes...a pity, since it is otherwise a great launcher...

PS: Galaxy S, 2.1
[Android Apps and Games] l0nEr:
Any chance i can hide some applications from the app drawer?
[Android Apps and Games] solox:
Dear santa, here's my wishlist:

option to chose apps to hide from the drawer

custom app/shortcut to launch on gesture
[Android Apps and Games] DrIGGI:
2 BIG Bugs:

- Zeam restarts itself after a while (after returning back from an app or game) causing lag instead of just using the already known cache.

- The scrollable Dock is very buggy: when scrolling from left to right, you need too push the icon 2 times instead of 1.

i tested zeam a while ago but uninstalled it because of these 2 major bugs, but i gave it a second try today. But the bugs are still not fixed...

So why am I the only one posting these 2 major bugs and why isn't the dev fixing them?
[Android Apps and Games] addoyle:
Never had those issues here....compared to LP Zeam is significantly better for stability.
[Android Apps and Games] DrIGGI:
I'm using it on my Galaxy S I9000 and the issue is still there, even after flashing another firmware.
[Android Apps and Games] dustrho:
I guess I can say I'm lucky as I've had no problems running it on my MT4G with Iced Glacier ROM.
[Android Apps and Games] :
this should be fixed in 2.6.1, please test :D
[Android Apps and Games] matromag:
GREAT!

it's works fine!!!

thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] xionz:
widget dock bar ?

Hy Guys,

Very good work !

Is it possible to create a widget in the same spirit as the bottom bar for use from any launcher ?

Thanks,

[Android Apps and Games] 7lucca:
now i noticed the same problem while turning camera on and going back to home screen. anyone experienced anything similar?
[Android Apps and Games] xswzaq1:
Any way to...?

1) Change icons in the dock.

2) Have a 'Contact' or 'People' icon.(unless I'm missing something)

As far a 'Contacts' are concerned, right now, I'm having to tap on a 'phone' icon in the dock, then tap the 'call history' icon, then tap the contacts icon.

Launcher Pro has an icon in the dock that takes me straight there. Is this option available in Zeam?
[Android Apps and Games] addoyle:
Just find space in the workplace and put a shortcut to people/contacts there. Then drag that icon into the dock. Simples....
[Android Apps and Games] xswzaq1:
Duh!

Somehow, I overlooked the People icon in the app drawer. I looked for it before posting this... really i did! :)
[Android Apps and Games] $aur0n:
Hi,

Thx. for great app!

Any chance for (already requested here - in this huge thread ;) ) binding single application in "Action bindings"?

I would love to have on "home" button "MultiTask Manager".
[Android Apps and Games] fredmode01:
I totally second that..
[Android Apps and Games] dreadwing:
Zeam launcher is now my default launcher, thanks for sharing your wonderful app!

Will it ever support custom dock backgrounds like launcher pro?
[Android Apps and Games] l0nEr:
Hey, im having problems creating shortcuts from Financisto.

According to the Financisto developments, they use the standard "com.android.launcher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT" intend to create the shortcut.

Is this supported in Zeam? Any way to get around this? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] parthabhatta:
Fully agree. I have already requested this in this thread and drastically need this for invoking my TaskSwitcher from any app.
[Android Apps and Games] mikep99:
Hi,

if anyone is interested in changing the dock background, you can pull the apk and change the default dock.

In the apk, the default dock resides in res\drawable-port-hdpi called dock_bg_default (same name indrawable-land-hdpi).

Once changed, push the apk back and reboot :)

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] biopsin:
Can one hide the dock all to gether like in ADW?

thanks :D 2.7.0 out...
[Android Apps and Games] 24v:
I think I asked this earlier in this thread, but maybe it was missed, or you don't like the idea?

Is it possible to make the dock hide somehow? Like right now I have double tap set to fullscreen, and that hides the notification bar. Maybe you could add the dock to that action?
[Android Apps and Games] Bec07:
Very nice, thank you!

But please add categories in the drawer :(

A nice way to do so would be:

ALL APPS | OFFICE APPS.... | GAMES

app.............|(slide screen right)...|next screen

app app app

app app app

app app app

app app app

app app app

app app app

_____........

scrollable further down

Please add a way to organize apps, this launches is so great in every other way!
[Android Apps and Games] Arbelzapf:
I'm using this launcher on my wildfire with CM 6.1.0 RC2 nightly and I love it!

My phone has never been this fast before. It's so much better than any other launcher I've tried.

2 things:

+1 on (optionally) hiding the dock in the app grid!!

and would it be possible to remove the text labels on the "action" widgets? Instead of the shortcut in the dock, I like to access my app grid with an action widget on my home screen and the double-tap gesture. And I don't think the action widgets really need text labels as the icons are already pretty distinct. removing them would help clean up my home screen (because I don't want to remove text labels altogether, which I know is already possible) :)
[Android Apps and Games] Eggcake:
Would be nice if it's possible to hide Apps in the AppDrawer.

Otherwise, great work! Replaced LauncherPRO Plus. Don't know, but it just "feels" better :D

Unread counts on dock icons

I appreciate the simplicity & speed of this launcher. I have one feature request: Unread counts for dock icons like phone, messaging, gmail. This is the only feature that I'm missing from LauncherPro.
[Android Apps and Games] mikep99:
+1 for the unread counts!

or... the ability to add SMS Unread Count widget to the dock...

[Android Apps and Games] bjcolema:
Great app especially with the latest improvements. Just waiting for indicators on the gmail, and messages icons.
[Android Apps and Games] Ihaveanepic:
Cloakt, this is a great launcher, thanks. Most everyone on here cracks me up. They are all requesting mods from either ADW our Launcher Pro. Maybe no one realizes that it will get bloated like the other launchers will all those requests? I don't know what kind of phones you all have but I have used Zeam, ADW and Launcher Pro and they are run pretty smooth in my opinion. I think most users are experiencing a placebo effect :~)

Its just funny that the first sentence he uses in his ad in the market says that Zeam is a "minimalistic" launcher but everyone wants to bloat it up? I do like Zeam a lot and it is very fast and smooth. Please don't bloat it up to much. Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] Brad103:
I agree with the above post. Often times less is better. Speed is #1 for me and while I've enjoyed all the recent updates I hope it doesn't get to bloated. Great launcher!
[Android Apps and Games] addoyle:

I think something in the update is causing hangs with the new HD2 Mytouch 4G build.
[Android Apps and Games] kaldean:
this is actually the fastest launcher, the only thing i really dont like is the dock bar i dont know if you could do anything about it to make it a little more aesthetic
[Android Apps and Games] Arbelzapf:
I hope you're not looking at me :)

The 2 things I suggested would basically remove stuff instead of bloating the application.

To be honest, I don't even why you would NOT disable the dock in the app drawer if your goal was to create a minimalistic launcher app.

It's great if you want to check the apps already in your dock while browsing the grid, but most of the time, I just think it takes up space.
[Android Apps and Games] rufiely:
+1 for unread counts
[Android Apps and Games] hachoo:
Unread Counters and Hidden Apps Drawer would make it complete.

Completely agree that bloating this up would make it essentially like ADW or LP.... why do that... if people want that, just get those ones instead of Zeam.

Ps: Thanks for the Zeaming!
[Android Apps and Games] mystichobo:
Awesome launcher.

How about the ability to choose different dock background png's?
