Great app! Seriously, this flies on my HD2. I kinda miss the 3d effect of the app drawer from my Gingerbread ROM, but the ability to kill apps from there is a fair trade. Both would be nice, but beggars can't be picky...

Here's a video of it. Sorry for the quality, had to record it using girlfriend's iPhone.

Hi, I really like your work, I have a wish, can you add an option to set icon background in the drawer, like touchwiz3 I mean, thanks :D
[Android Apps and Games] DeezNotes:
I agree. An icon background like TouchWiz, ADW Launcher (which is main-screen only) and MIUI would be very nice.

Also the ability to make the icons bigger. Some of us with screens 4" and bigger could use icons that are slightly larger than the Android default. ADW also has this feature for the home screen only. It would be nice if this worked on both the home screens and the app drawer. Honestly, I'm okay with getting rid of the app drawer altogether (like MIUI).
[Android Apps and Games] :
LOL!

I like the comment. Anyways I think this a great launcher just thought I would like to put my two cents in for what I would like to see.

1) I would like to see the MIUI approach to adding short cuts to the dock, for all the launchers I have tried I have not seen one where you can have four short cuts on the dockbar with out space issues.

2)The ability to change the in drawer home button, and the placement of said home button in the Home drawer.

Besides that I love this launcher, It's simple, designed great and pleasing to the eye.
[Android Apps and Games] panteraz:
Thanks for the video!

I can see that you are tipping the button from the upper side for video purposes. When live and in a hurry I need almost 8 times to open an app! From side keeping the phone one hand.

Please fix it go laucher developers!!! :D
[Android Apps and Games] Kernow_joe:
love the launcher however are you able to have a folder as a dock link? not seen any mention of it maybe I'm missing something?
[Android Apps and Games] seboj:
As far as I can tell, there's no way to put a folder on the dock. At least no way that I've found.
[Android Apps and Games] Kernow_joe:
I've tried don't think its supported, would be amazing if it was
[Android Apps and Games] DerEineDa:
True! Opening an app from the app drawer is a real pain! It's just way too sensitive. If you move your finger just one pixel, the launcher seems to register a "scroll attempt".

Sometimes I have to hit an icon around 10 times before I manage to open the app. I think other launchers have some kind of "threshold", so that moving the finger just a few pixels is still registered as a "click" instead of a "scroll attempt". Go Launcher is just way too sensitive there. It seems to be very hard to touch an icon without letting the device register a movement of your finger in the process of touching the screen.

By the way, I am using an Xperia X8. But I don't think it's dependent of the device.
[Android Apps and Games] syrenz:
When I try to open an app in the app drawer I seem to have to tap it multiple times before it goes into anything. (it's fine outside off app drawer). Also reinitializing gets annoying :(
[Android Apps and Games] nonpaq:
Same here with multiple taps to launch any app in the drawer. Very hard to tap without a slight movement. Find it easier if i set the drawer to scroll vertically instead of horizontally.

Currently running on HD2 with MDJ CM7 Gingerbread.
[Android Apps and Games] qazokm123:
Same here. Tot i have sensitive hands !
[Android Apps and Games] qazokm123:
Great Launcher. Working well on my DHD.

-Any chance to make App Drawer (horizontal) LOOP around.?
[Android Apps and Games] seboj:
Yeah, after seeing all the posts about it, I don't think it's device or ROM specific. Hopefully the dev can get it cleared up, it's the only problem I have with GO.
[Android Apps and Games] teltel:
trying to use it with i9000,

want to customize dock icons but cant find the best size,

if i try to replace a custom icon, then the system stretch the icon and causing bad looking.

whats the ideal icon size?
[Android Apps and Games] dadams312:
I'm running the latest updated version of go launcher and it keeps adding widgets to the homescreen. went to bed last night and woke up to having 3 beautiful widget weathers all sitting on top of each other.

yesterday I went to check my scorecenter widget and it had added a second one of those too.

this is about the 3rd time i've had this happen.
[Android Apps and Games] NewbDroid:
Home screen folders

I love Go Launcher. It is simply one of the best launchers out there and my experience with it has been excellent so far.

However, I am running into one small but significant problem. When I create a folder in my Applications Drawer (e.g. utilities) and add it to my home screen, the home screen folder does not 'refresh'. What I mean by this is if I added 'utilities' by dragging the folder to the home screen today with 10 apps in it, downloaded another 5 apps today and added them to the folder through the apps drawer, the home screen folder displays only the previous 10 apps instead of the 15 apps it should have. This is annoying as everytime I add a new app to a folder through my app drawer I have to go to my home screen, delete the 'utilities' folder and drag and drop again from my app drawer to get a refreshed list of apps.

Is there any way to fix it? Because this would be PERFECT.

Running this on Samsung Captivate, Android 2.2, rooted.

Thanks in advance!

I've a problem with icon, when I set a personal icon in home, GOlauncher re-size it in a bad resolution (see image below)

yes, have the same problem and cant get help here?

i even tried to replace /drawable-hdpi png files and cant see my custom icons in the app when i install it.

[Android Apps and Games] jodeltje:
Is there a way to disable the elastic/bouncy effect when scrolling pages? it's especially no use to me because I use just one screen. Which now bounces left and right... which is kind of weird.

thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ramatomo:
preferences> display option> bouncy effect

(maybe, my menu is in italian)
[Android Apps and Games] jodeltje:
thanks, but I already have that set to 0, that just makes the slower, not less bouncy, seems odd, I know.
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
In the latest version I have no problem with " initializing, please wait " - nor with an extra home screen being added automatically.

Excellent. SGS

App Drawer icons too sensitive - interpret touch as swipe

Hi,

This app would be perfect if it weren't so hard to select icons in the app drawer. Sometimes I end up pressing the screen 3 or 4 times. The icons are very sensitive and interpret my touch as a swipe. I'm on a Desire HD, running CyanogenMod 7 (Gingerbread) nightly builds.
[Android Apps and Games] syrenz:
Trying to make docks the right size for Go launcher since LP size is a bit off. Here's one I made if anyone wants to use:

Alignment is fine (I should fix up some minor stuff that are slightly off in the actual look - not really visible on my phone though :shrug:).
[Android Apps and Games] MacGuy2006:
Dock Notifications?

Any chance Go Launcher will get the ability to show notifications on icons in the dock?

I hide my notifications bar (way too busy looking). It would be great to be able to see notifications for K-9 email, SMS and Google Voicemail on the dock icons, like ADW Notifier.

(Being able to make the dock a bit larger would be great too.)
[Android Apps and Games] POQbum:
There is already that option in the latest version.

> I also agree I would like to see a slightly larger dock ^^

The developer(s) for this has been really great on adding suggested features, hopefully that will be added soon- I'm sure there's a lot of other things to consider but it would be nice to have easier to see and touch main icons, especially for phone and text which is 80% of my droid use.

I'm going to have to agree with a lot of the hype- love this launcher. I completely uninstalled the default on my rooted incredible (HTC Sense)- this is much more customizable, making it easier for me to use and get to things that I want to.
[Android Apps and Games] chrisa86:
I have an issue with widgets on homescreens - they'll often move, duplicate or sometimes duplicate behind other widgets?!
[Android Apps and Games] Walker Street:
App Drawer icons too sensitive - I give up!

The icons are very sensitive and interpret my touch as a swipe. I'm on a Desire HD, running CyanogenMod 7 (Gingerbread) nightly builds.[/QUOTE]

I just came back from driving. I was sitting in the car trying to press the Google Navigation icon in the App Drawer 10x without success. The icon just bobbed back and forth. It's like I have only a millimetre target in order to touch the icon successfully, otherwise I get interpreted as a swipe.

Back to MIUI or Launcher Pro. This is such a pity.... I would use Go Launcher in a heartbeat if not for this problem. I will upgrade my rating from 1 star to 5 starts on the Market if this is fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] hachoo:
Great Launcher. It lags sometimes and sometimes does suck up a lot of battery (random really). My main issue is with the usability of the app drawer icons near the side of the screen. It recognises presses of the icons on the side as moving the screen(swiping horizontally) rather than opening the apps. Not sure how that can be fixed though, without going into vertical mode that is.
[Android Apps and Games] obyn:
i would also just like to thank you for "go sms" and "go launcher".

as well as express my dire want for "go dialer".
[Android Apps and Games] syrenz:
While we're at it: GoMusic ;)

[/QUOTE]

I have this problem as well and using the app drawer tends to annoy me since it keeps sliding up and down way too fast. Very hard to select an app.
[Android Apps and Games] FixedTheFernBack:
This is a major issue for me at the moment. I love this launcher and recommend it over any other launcher i've tried (had LPP and ADW for months each and spent a good amount of time with Zeam) but the "bobbing back and forth" issue in the app drawer really bothers me. It makes me not go into the app drawer actually i'm finding myself using my search button to open apps. It's not an issue on the scrolling dock, so if the app drawer scrolled with the same sensitivity as the dock i'd be thrilled.

Also i really happen to like the dock icons that are built in, i just wish there were more. It would be great to have these styled icons for facebook, dropbox, some sort of file icon, twitter, maps and navigation, maybe a little reddit alien.

Anyways, great job so far. Please fix the app drawer!
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
How do those of your from LauncherPro Plus users, who uses its widgets, switch over to GO Launcher without those widgets? I want to know your alternative apps to replace those widgets that you left behind with LauncherPro to switch to GO Launcher. :)

[Android Apps and Games] punkmonkey1984:
Yeah id like to see this get fixed as well, great other wise tho.
[Android Apps and Games] zyker:
This is my current launcher after using LP plus. It's a great launcher but I'm having the common issue as the other users. I need to touch a few time on the icon before getting the app launched. It's getting worst due to my tiny X10 mini pro screen.

BTW good job to the developer(s). I'm waiting for further updates of the app.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
Ahh thank you so much! :)
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
Ok, update: the extra home screen is back. :(
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
With that said ... may I know if there are like "icon packs" for GO Launcher?
[Android Apps and Games] julipsydreams:
this launcher is fast which is great, but it never works right for me :-(

sometimes widgets show up, sometimes they don't.

sometimes i can load a custom dock icon for an app, and sometimes i cant.

if these problems/glitches could be solved for me i may never switch back to LPP
[Android Apps and Games] ap_android:
excellent launcher

really it work excellent on gt-i5801, I LIKE THE application drawer tabs to kill the background running applications, clear history, modify shortcut ! now i didn't need task killer applications, overlay shortcuts which can handle from any screen , activity shortcuts made this application the best launcher ..
[Android Apps and Games] chrisa86:
Whilst I have lots of issues with widgets on homescreens I really like the app drawer, the drag and drop + folders is something I really want but haven't seen elsewhere.

Frankly if that were a standalone item it'd be brilliant.

[Android Apps and Games] lexluthor:
Im having an issue with this version that I didn't have the other one.

Occasionally when I hit home to go back to my main home screen, I get there and the screen is totally blank. After a few seconds or if I go to a side screen and back, my icons come back.

Anyone else seen this?
[Android Apps and Games] stalkachu:
Installed on my Dell Streak, all working very nicely, new theme icon choices are nice, although the original icons for desktop shortcuts seem to have disappeared? Not sure what happened to them, but can't seem to use 'replace' to get them anymore.

Couple of sizing problems (normal for a streak, I know) - the dock bars for the themes usually only extend to about the fourth item in the dock, meaning I have to disable them manually. Plus with the wooden theme, because of that, there are two normal size drawers and one super-massive one, which looks a bit odd.

Otherwise...all good. Any more problems, will let you know!

THANKS FOR THE UPGRADE!

Take care,

Stalks
[Android Apps and Games] stalkachu:
Oh, and on further inspection, the dockbar is also misaligned, which it wasn't in the old Go Launcher. The notification bubbles are correctly placed, but the five icons are shifted ever so slightly towards the left, making everything else seem strange.

Few more teething issues, but I'll give them a chance to settle down before judging further. ^_^

Oh! And the Screens menu is also presuming your resolution is smaller than the Streak's screen. So it will stack

ZZZ

ZZZ

Rather than

ZZZZZ

Z

Etc.

Just letting you know, thanks again!

Take care,

I just upgraded to GO Launcher EX, and the problem with tapping on things in the app drawer is gone for me. It very rarely registers a scroll event now.

The themes are pretty cool. Be awesome if we could get the GO themes to match up with CM7's themes.

I upgraded to Go Launcher EX but I'm still having problem with the notification for SMS. It's ok for the email. BTW, I'm using Go SMS app.
[Android Apps and Games] DerEineDa:

[Android Apps and Games] paranoid2007:
Yeah, I also have problems with notifications. I wonder, what that GoLauncher EX notification app is good for, if you can't chose your favorite messaging app? Very strange...
[Android Apps and Games] martino2k6:
Same here, scrolling is pretty good and so is moving stuff around in the app drawer. Before it was just a pain.

Not had time to test out the notifications so far.

[Android Apps and Games] Soccer_Dad:
Go Launcher EX is my favorite launcher. Two things really seal the deal for me.

First is the ability to have any number of home screens. I can have one screen for GPS apps, one for work-related folders and documents, one for games, etc.

Second is that amazing scrolling dock ribbon on the bottom. Default gives you 15 buttons to play with. That frees my screens from some of the more mundane app links, and allows me to have more widgets visible. The other great feature is the ability to double the number of links with the gesture response feature. I have a direct link to "settings" on the dock, which is pretty standard, but I have configured the "slide up" app for the same location to be the specific "battery setting" shortcut. Similarly, Astro is the main icon (used most of the time by me) but Gallery is the secondary gesture response, in case I want to browse pictures instead of all file types.

Great work!

I try to change the wallpaper to one from my own gallery. No matter how big or small I set the selection area, only a portion of the selection is shown on the display (as if I had selected a smaller area from the original picture). As a note, bug doesn't depend on type of image or original size.

Attached two images: one with the picture on the TW launcher, and one on the Go launcher. My original image has the same size (in pixels) as the display.

Can I somehow solve the problem manually?
