Lost all walls!

I upgraded this from 2.01 and lost all my walls, icons, etc. When I restored profile it did not restore, so went back to 2.01 and it restored and everything was there. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] plnghiepla:
It's very beautiful! thanks
[Android Apps and Games] dualmoon:
Been using this one now for a while. tried a lot of other launchers but I keep coming back to this one (zedge being a close second). There aren't enough themes though, is there any way to add support for our own themes?

Captivate//Serendipity//Swype
[Android Apps and Games] lexluthor:
Is there a way to enable wrap around to go directly between the first and last screens? If not, that's something that should definitely be added.

It's needed, especially if using a transition like windmill.
[Android Apps and Games] kam333:
excellent update (v2.11)

sorted almost all issues, especially the app draw & stability

many thanks
[Android Apps and Games] pritishd:
Thanks for the update. Like the new transitions with regards to the following

"Fixed issues while change orientation of home screen"

I am using a 5*4 grid size, so when I viewing it vertically it's fine. However when I view it horizontally, my widgets overlap with each other
[Android Apps and Games] Bandis710:
I completely agree with the above ! I really realy like go launcher ex, but the only reason why I am not using it on a daily basis , is the fact that custom icons look very ugly ( pixelated , jagged, low res) it can nnot be the icons set I am using cause I have tested 35 iconssets and all had the same problem in go launcher ex( and all all are look ing great in launcher pro and adw launcher) ..

I do not know if it is device specific, my device is the galaxy s I9000 ..
[Android Apps and Games] troyolson92:
I would really like to try this launcher as it seems cool. But it doesn't work.

I sent 3 emails to developer and no response. when I go to menu, preferences, or on home screen and try to add an application shortcut the screen for those options trys to open and closes very quickly. No FC's, just a very fast screen flash. Without being able to get to preferences it's basically no good for me.

Any suggestions?

I am using Samsung Epic with Bonsia Rom.
[Android Apps and Games] cynikalJ:
Absolutely love the new go launcher. Smooth as silk. I am converted from Launcher Pro
[Android Apps and Games] Czechton:
It can't be device specific since plenty of other people (including me) have the same issue on a variety of devices. For the moment it seems the only workaround for getting smooth custom icons is to resize the icons in an image editor to 60x60 and then use them.

At the moment this is my only annoyance with this launcher, otherwise it is AWESOME!:)
[Android Apps and Games] Soccer_Dad:
A heads up - I'm still in testing, but I may be seeing a problem with the last update. I have had multiple lockups (battery pull style). I had problems with the gallery. I had consistent problems opening the market and installing/updating. I couldn't get a barcode scanner to work. Looking at task manager, the Go Launcher would occasionally consume huge cpu's and go into the red.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the backup of Go Launcher EX from the earlier version, without the fancy transitions, and everything is, once again, as smooth as silk.
[Android Apps and Games] troyolson92:
Seems way to much work to do and very little support. By the time this is complete and working right the others will be better. Good try.
[Android Apps and Games] iamnik:
Hmmm, the latest update seems to consume massive amounts of battery, so uninstalling. It's a shame because I loved this launcher, everything is perfect except for two things: Would like a better home>app drawer transition, and for the home screen rotation to be faster.

Will check on it again when the next iteration is released.
[Android Apps and Games] d0nald01:
when using DPI at like 240 and going to show preview screen will have blank space on the sides, maybe you can make it take up the whole screen
[Android Apps and Games] Czechton:
So now that I've used this for an entire day I will have to regretfully uninstall it due to the huge amount of battery it drained (60% according to the battery usage stats).

I will definitely give the next iteration a try in the hope that this issue is fixed .
[Android Apps and Games] Madnessx9:
Since the last update i've had the same issue. I since uninstalled and reinstalled which fixed it but the next day my phone started rebooting itself randomly until i stopped using it again.

I've not had any issues with Go Launcher Ex apart form this new update. If anything my battery would drain only 40% for the whole day rather than 70%-80% as normal

Edit*

Seems a new update has been released which fixes the crashes apparently
[Android Apps and Games] thefatkid76:
Today's update seems to have fixed the battery issues on my Fascinate. Usually use 30-40% during a day. Was going through 70-90% since last update. Today has been pretty normal.

Well done!

Release the new version to solve freeze problems on droid, droid 2 and droid x.
[Android Apps and Games] programatix:
Hi,

There seems to be a problem with the Dock. I can't seem to replicate the problem on purpose but it keeps on happening since the first release of Go Launcher Ex.

The the problem happens if I tap on a shortcut on the Dock which is not the default Dock. After running the shortcut and returning to the Homescreen (normally by pressing the Home button), the Dock returns to the default Dock, instead of the Dock which it was in. Then if I swipe the Dock left or right, it moves to either left or right of the Dock which it was supposed to be at. Example,

Say 1 2 3 are docks 1, 2 and 3. I'll put "[ ]" to represent the dock I am viewing

1) Go to dock 1.

[1] 2 3

2) Tap any shortcut. App starts and do something. Then return to Homescreen. Upon returning, it shows (can't really reproduce. It might or might not happen),

1 [2] 3

3) I swipe Dock to left, instead of getting

[1] 2 3

I'll get,

1 2 [3]
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
Release the new version 2.13.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
So reviews please .. does this home redraw often on CM7?
[Android Apps and Games] fjelsten:
Excellent update on Samsung Galaxy S.

I'd like the screen rotation to work also in the vertical app drawer.

Edit: Sorry, I meant the horizontal app drawer
[Android Apps and Games] Xemantic:
I love this launcher and really don't mean to sound ungrateful because I'd pay for it if I had to but how come you won't fix the custom icon issue? the icons from the themes work fine but I still can't select custom icons I wanna use because the crop tool cuts them off and they look like crap, Just wondering if you're gonna fix it, no disrespect.
[Android Apps and Games] pprabhu06:
thanks .................:)
[Android Apps and Games] limezone:
I have experienced both 1 & 2. The recent upgrade seems to have made things better but I can't say it works flawlessly.

I love this launcher! Thank you SO much. I can't imagine ever using a different one.

[Android Apps and Games] limezone:
That's why I dumped Wigetsoid. Not that I have anything against it, but everything Widgetsoid does, I can do with something else, that's more stable.
[Android Apps and Games] Pickx:
Just wanted to say that the latest update is very impressive

Clearly there are some very aggressive and talented developers behind this software.
[Android Apps and Games] iamnik:
Just downloaded the latest update. Pinch out now works incredibly smooth. havn't been able to test battery life yet.

BIG THANKS TO THE DEVELOPERS!!

7 hours past and I see the GO Launcher used 15% of my battery. Ermm not sure if that's good. =X
[Android Apps and Games] pikachu01:
Switching between horizontal and vertical orientation is a bit slow on the home screen. Is there a way to make it faster (as fast as Launcher Pro does?)
[Android Apps and Games] TiwitAnoid:
Great update...everything seems to work flawlessly ...thanks so much go team..

I had an issue before where after reboot the landscape mode icons would be messed up and I had to restore the backup to fix it...I haven't tested that after the last update yet ...will give feed back if the problem persist .... would love to see more dock styles and maybe animation when u press an icon but. I understand that could drain more of the battery ..more transitions and more wallpapers would be great ....

Fantastic work go team...looking forword to more updates

[Android Apps and Games] pikachu01:
I tested Go Launcher on my Toshiba Folio and I found that the font size in the App Drawer too big, making the titles shorter than they should be. E.g.

Home Screen Switcher becomes:

Hom.Sc.

Is there a way to reduce the font size?
[Android Apps and Games] walda:
Hi, switched from LauncherProPlus to ADW Ex and now to GO.

Is it possible to

* improve Scrolling speed in App Drawer? (5x5)

* keep folders on top in App Drawer even if icons were sorted? Or make an own Tab for folders?

* Double Tap function on desktop - like existing swipe up/down on screen

* chooseable folder icon in App Drawer

Thanks :D

Change "sideways" sensitivity?

Hi guys

Tried searching this thread in vain...

Here's what I'm experiencing: When I try to scroll up and down in my scrollable widgets (Plume, Pure Calendar etc.) I often experience that instead of scrolling up or down the screens start changing. I feel like I have to be extremely accurate in the vertical motion to scroll up and down. I'm coming from LauncherPro Plus where this was not an issue. Can I adjust this? Or could this be a setting for a future release?

Thanks for a great product :-)

./kroogar
[Android Apps and Games] stepchild:
I'm having same issue. Really hard to scroll the widgets.

I do like this launcher, except for that and I wish it had over lapping for widgets.

That's pretty cute.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] cotc2001:
I love my desire HD but one thing i'm having problems with is this so i'm wondering if anyone knows of a app that would solve the problem.

If I put my Desire HD into the brodit active car charger for streaming audio to my bluetooth car stero. after a while the screen will shut down so I can access menu's etc without pressing the top button again.

Now I know I can set the power settings to not turn off screen if on charge but it will still dim it.

What I need to know is that does anyone know of any app that you can specify that if

X app is running and is on charge then keep screen on at full brightness

A bit like if you were running something like copilot then it doesn't turn off the screen
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] wbbigdave:
you could try using something like "settings profile", which has abilities to create different profiles and activate them based on a set of rules.

This gives you some serious configuration options including screen timeout, set to never, seeing if that works for me.

If you want some really deep system config then you could always give "tasker" a go.

Also forget to mention, settings profile can do some really cool stuff with rules, for example I have one rule which says,

If phone is on charge and can see wireless SSID X then change profile to Bed, where screen rotation is locked. As the SSID is my home router and the charger is next to my bed.

I then have another rule which turns off all notifications except my alarm after 11 oclock on a weekday.

And i only scratch the surface of it.

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] pinn___________:
Tasker would make sense here. Incredibly powerful tool to automate basically any task you can think of.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Yoshi_523:
Widgetsoid, silly name but seriously the best set of toggle/power/control widgets I've ever used. So customisable, even the free version. Highly reccomended. For Widgetsoid you'd choose either the widget for keep screen always on or the other widget for keep screen on when charger connected. Widgetsoid is highly reccomended. For example create a widget for Wi-Fi, APN(data), Bluetooth and GPS. Toggle these off when you aren't using your phone such as overnight and save heaps of power.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVMENOR:
Battery was 28% last night, the phone gained 3% overnight when It usually drains 2%, no usb connection as you can see in the graphic. What could cause this behavior? I’m just curious.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
Perhaps its an issue with your battery controller. It was projecting a certain loss of battery but when it did not after waking from sleep it assumed it had charged and displayed a higher %?

That is completely conjecture based in no fact other than those made up by me, so please take it with a grain of salt. =)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i'll keep saying this, but nobody wants to look at the nexus s battery driver code. seems the phone is based off voltage tables, which fluctuate under load, and hence when you charge to 100% and unplug, it drops to 97%. because the voltage drop.

same could apply to this situation, very often you can see your voltage drop like that. especially if you left the phone idle all night after using it hard prior. voltage drops then increases;).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVMENOR:
Yes, I was using maps very hardly (at least in comparison to the rest of the day) and that’s the reason of the fast drop in the graphic, then the phone went sleep for almost 7 hours. I’ll take a look at what you’re saying about voltage tables. Very interesting info here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
you were using maps right around the time of that drop? then yes that's the reason. i wasnt directing the "code review" to you lol, just more of a general thing that was discussed in the forum previously. sorry:)

but this would definitely show, in my opinion, why there is also the 100% to 97% drop when taking the phone off the charger. voltage drop always ocurrs here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVMENOR:
No reason to be sorry about, I didn’t take it that way; I just like to learn new stuff about how things work.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
its the battery meter. you probably rebooted. the battery meter in android is known to be inaccurate. sometimes after a reboot it can gain or lose percentage. ive gained 25% before after rebooting! in reality, you didnt gain anything, its just the meter being off by a bit.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knytphal:
I just want to know how you get nearly 4 days of use out of a charge!

Don't you use your phone? :p
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVMENOR:
I haven’t seen this after reboot, this happened after awake and it wasn’t sudden. Phone without signal in the graphic is the “airplane-mode” It wasn’t off. I know that battery didn’t gain any charge, of course, It’s just the weird behavior of android reading battery information.

lol, yeah, It was a very quiet week.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
it would be awesome if you could test this if you dont mind. turn your screen brightness to max, make sure your on 3g and not wifi, open google maps and scroll in one direction for about a minute or 2, check the battery percent and voltage. then turn off the screen, leave it sit for a few minutes, then see the percent and voltage readings.

maybe try a test a few times just for fun...you wanna place as much load on the phone as possible, so maybe even turn on the camera flash?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
does any body else has an easier way, or can recommend a market app to test the battery life by using full features?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVMENOR:
Quick test here:

Beginning with 3728 mV, stress the phone a little and It drops to 3622 mV, then I let the phone sleep for couple of minutes and after wake it battery shows 3730 mV. It seems to show higher values than those that were present before sending the phone to sleep. What could be said about that?

I’ll do another test with full charge and more stress, but for the moment, my phone is charging, yeah…. Finally.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
its too bad my app (my sig) doesnt work for the nexus s, because i just recently added real time voltage vs current graphing, taking 2 second readings, for these exact circunstances. its fun doing these types of tests on my n1. but the battery driver and model is too different in the nexus s to use the app...:(

n1 doesnt use voltage at all for percent readings, but my hunch from code was the nexus s does. that's why i was so curious. check out some screens though for fun:). you can really do some interesting tests with such high sample rates.

I really hope so, but it will be hard to do because the zune actually lets you run unsigned apps, it just reboots afterwards. The phone might not even have the silverlight commands to run something like this. sorry, but it probably won't be done.
