I use ADW..

1) its free

2) its packed with features (more than launcher pro, gestures etc)

3) really customisable

4) I find it really fast

5) my battery lasts about 2 days (with light use)

6) heaps of cool themes available (free and paid)

I tried out Launcher Pro version and various other free launchers.. they were o.k, but missed all the great features I found in adw.

anyway, just my 2c if you want to pay for it then Launcher Pro (full) is great, if you want a great free launcher I don't think you will find better than adw.

launcher pro - saves battery better than stock home or adw

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
i just installed adw and it seems quite good and responsive! thumbs up for adw
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] darebak666:
For long time I used ADW. With ADW Launcher after I came home in the evening the baterry was 30-40%.

Few calls/sms, short time internet browsing via EDGE.

With same pgms, usage etc. but with Launcher pro instead of ADW I came home with 70-80%. Few days testing.

Seems the ADW is pretty much eating the battery.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Soulj4h:
I agree completely. ADW used to cause my battery to drain. Launcher Pro which I have purchased does not seem to do that and in fact saves my battery. It's awesome :).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
I usually get about 2 days on my phone running ADW (once I even got 3 days but with very little actual use.. a bit of music and one or 2 calls/sms's and Wifi on and live wallpaper and minimal syncing, email and mediascape) still 3 days was pretty good I thought.

But I might give Launcher pro another shot and see if I can improve on that, might get 4 days out of the phone!! :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
O.k.. so I just bought Launcher Pro paid.. first impressions..after using adw for months..

yes its pretty snappy, seems just a little quicker than ADW.. :D

looks pretty good "straight out of the box" but where are the themes?? :mad:

some o.k widgets included in the paid version, calender and messages etc.. but meh.. nicer ones are available. :rolleyes:

has to restart every time you make even the slightest change (adw does this automatically without much disruption) :rolleyes:

still playing with it but so far for the tiny bit of speed increase I prefer the look and themability of adw.. still need more time to check battery use and possibly work out how to find and install themes.. must be simple.. but I couldn't find it in the last 5 min. :confused:

will try to add more as I discover.. (so far my money is still on adw but I will give LP a fair trial, after all.. I payed for it :rolleyes:)

EDIT: o.k.. so themes on Launcher pro.. um.. WTF? you have to buy another application? for $1.99 to install custom icons and docs.. excuse me but I think adw is looking better and better... someone please correct me.. :mad:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] VooDoo`:
at launcher pro I miss the swipe gestures on homescreen and the behavior of the adw's fastdock. there are also less settings and the appdrawer is uglier.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
So, I know that LP is a bit snappier as I also as many other realized that LP is more battery friendly. But that doesn't mean that ADW is much laggier because it isn't, it is just alittle slower and from what I saw myself using it, it becomes slower depending on the theme, background apps and Live Wpapers.

ADW for sure has more option when it comes to looking good, but as I said on first post, because of the limited resources of our minis we should stick with something that makes our mini fast and longlasting battery.

Just my 2 cents
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] F3niX:
I feel launcher pro is better

But for me both LP and Default SE launcher give same battery life - 2 to 3 days
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
Best Launcher is Zeam. Very low on resource consumption. Has many customisable settings (Including Swipe gestures). Can attach as many icons as shortcut in the dockbar and the dockbar is scrollable. I use six dock shortcuts plus app tray launcher seven in total whereas ADW allows only four plus one. You can customise up & down swipes, bind Home button like ADW and all these with an installer of 495kb as against 2.42Mb of ADW launcher. Only thing I could find in ADW launcher is it gives an option for resizing of widgets on Homescreen which is not available in Zeam.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
Well.. after playing with Launcher pro for a day.. I am starting to like it, I discovered that you can just copy any .png files (the correct size) to your SD card and use them for icons and dock bar (pretty cool), I feel it could still benefit from built in theme support like adw (but then I guess it might not be as responsive.. perhaps the difference between the speed of LP and adw is the themes, and lack of control to what happens to the Launcher with the themes) the Widgets that come with LP paid are quite nice too (I used to use timescape for my facebook widget but the LP one is so much nicer, almost worth buying it just for that!) I thought I would miss the swipe gesture in adw (to hide the info bar) but in LP you can assign any/all icons on the dock with swipe actions to either hide the info bar, open apps.. display missed calls/new messages etc.. pretty sweet!

I have decided to stick with LP for now (and I was an avid adw fan) I plan to have fun making my own custom icon set and dock bar.. I am still a big fan of adw for its ease of use, price (free) and themes.. still well worth checking out if you want to switch the look/theme of your phone on a daily basis.

LauncherPro on 2.1 for 1.6 ADW
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bahkyp:
Thanks. Not Free :( will keep looking

In a follow up to earlier post, Zend much better (100-20% 43Hours) with;

1 wifi off.

2 ATK,

3. auosync off.

Lost radio (phone signal) twice? Still trying for 3 days battery life.

Probably giving Launch Pro a go this battery cycle.

(BTW don't know what SonyEricsson fixed. My X1 WM6.5 is now on day 9 of charge with 24% battery including a 1/2 hour google maps session that accounted for 20% drop, could SE tweak power usage on X10 as well please.)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
I know everyone hates it (including myself), but if you want to conserve the battery stick to the stock SE launcher.

rule of thumb - the smaller a home launcher (file size), the less power it sucks.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sanjay_bandaru:
hey I got beautiful widget and will be posting it soon
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
on 1.6 I didn't notice any difference in battery use between Stock and ADW (and I used stock for several months)... Thats not saying the rule of thumb is wrong.. just that SE ain't the best at writing software.. I would guess LP gives better battery results than the stock launcher on 2.1.. at least thats what I convinced myself of because I hate the stock launcher so much! and I find 2-3 days is more than enough on Launcher Pro) :D

best homescreen replacement

Launcher pro for me as its the fastest. Homescreen 3d is not really a home replacement because it just shows your app drawer in a 3d. You have no home screens at all, no widgets ..nothing. It's very much a work in progress for me.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] VooDoo`:
there is a update for adw :-)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bahkyp:
Listing battery life.

X10 mini, 2.1 android, ATK and generally no; BG data, wifi, gps or pull email.

ADW, 1 100-10% 28 hours ** not with ATK or no BGdata, 4 100-19% 41.5 Hours

Zeam, 2 100-18% 42 Hours, 5 100-20% 53 hours, 9 100-22% 68 Hours.

Launcher 3 Pro, 100-21% 46 hours

Go Launcher, 6 100-16% 61 hours. (Removing, auto starts so can't test other homes screens)

Stock, 7 100-16% 72 hours

dxTop Lite, 8 100-26% 50 hours (Removing, home > up > left > down gets back to home, not to the screen left of home? 3D eyecandy also annoying.)

But battery seems to be improving with each charge. Will cycle and edit as appropriate.

X1 wm6.5, 100-13% 212 hours (8 days 20 hours). Received 2 sms. No calls, wifi / gps off. 100-38% 8 days. 100-10% 311 hours (12 days 23 Hours). Received 1 call.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] desh_iit:
Hi,

I have tried a lot of launcher like ADW,LP, Zeam, 3D launcher(even I made one basic launcher for me). Mostly I liked all of them(not 3d one). Currently after installing " go launcher " I removed all my launchers and using this new launcher. Features that makes this one unique -

1) home screen - just keep on adding (not limited to 7)-so I can basically make most of my screens clean.

2)app drawer is unique the most recent apps and currently running apps tabs are really useful.

3)I can actually rearrange the drawer's apps with long press, animation is nice(like iphone, you know)

4)I can change the bg of app drawer..wow I waited for this a long.

I don't want to use other launchers(i happily removed them:p)

I'd love to have shortcuts on different screens on my desktop which is something what Launcher Pro can do. But on the other hand i love how ADW manage app drawer...

So, is there launcher which can handle both, or ADW can somehow make such shortcuts like Launcher Pro/Launcher Pro can hide apps and have background with wallpaper?

I don't have access to a PPC Mac so I haven't had a chance to test this. However I did attempt to develop Heimdall with support for PPC Macs.

You'll have to download the source package and make the following modifications:

In OutboundPacket.h after line 22:

Add the line:

In InboundPacket.h after line 22:

Add the same line:

Then follow the instructions to compile (don't forget you need the libusb-1.0 SDK) and run Heimdall as usual you should hopefully be able to get Heimdall running on your G4.
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
Wow thanks! Unfortunately I have no experienc in programming but ill see what I can do
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
Well I can add the lines to both files but have no idea how to compile everything. I know you left instructions but it looks like jibberish to me....lol
[Captivate General] Benjamin Dobell:
Yeah. If you have no experience whatsoever compiling software then this might be a bit of a stretch.

First you need to install all the build tools. Whilst all of XCode technically isn't necessary, it's easiest if you just install the whole of XCode using the installer. XCode is probably included on your original OS X disk but if not you can download it for free from Apple's website.

Once you've installed XCode you need to install libusb 1.0.8 (http://www.libusb.org/). Then you need to get the Heimdall intel binaries and follow the instructions to install them. The intel binaries obviously won't work but it also makes some other changes which are required.

Then you need to use terminal to navigate (i.e cd) to the directory where you extracted the Heimdall source code. Once there you need to type:

If it complains on the first step, then type the following and retry:

If you need more help it would be good if you could post in the Galaxy S Heimdall thread so other users can easily find and benefit from the answers I give.

Make sure your phone is off.

If you have stock bootloaders hold volume up and volume down while plugging in your usb cord. If you guys have gingerbread bootloaders hold volume up and press the power button. If those don't work you might need to try a usb jig, www.mobiletechvideos.com sells them for around $5. There are youtube videos showing how to make a usb jig yourself for a couple bucks if you would rather do that.

Ps: this thread is super old. Just search next time, there are plenty of other threads covering this.

Note: I am in no way associated with the authors of this ROM.

While perusing ROM Manager this morning I stumbled upon a new entry. Attempts to uncover any useful details about the 0.0.4 release of Lithium Mod proved fruitless, and yet curiosity got the best of me (as it musually does with my Inc). I've installed It and thus far am impressed with a lean, stable AOSP build with some interesting tweaks built in.

Please reply with any usage reports or pertinent details concerning this release, whether it be stock or modded in any way you see fit.

Obligatory link:

Attributes discovered thus far:

-Customized power menu

-Nifty boot animation

-15 second boot time

-310MB free memory on boot

-Red Clock font I can't change?
