Version with auto rotate:

Why would one want to go back to the 2.0.1 launcher? Are there problems with the 2.1 version?
Edit: Nevermind... just saw your other thread.

Big update.
Let me know about errors.

Installed, and speed is fantastic. A little torn now because I really liked the look of the phone/browser on your launcher2, but this things speed makes it a close call. Havent found a bug yet.

This thing is blazing fast compared to Launcher2.apk. Is there a way we could get one that auto rotates like there was for the G1/MT3g?

There is the original post by him. I just had to deodex the file and now I have a Launcher.apk that auto-rotates 360 degrees

Status bar in not affected of the Launcher. Only apps drawer

How do I revert to original launcher after choosing this one as the default.

download home switcher from the market or find launcher in settings/applications and clear defaults..

Great. Home switcher is awesome.

it is indeed..

Thanks Doc! Your custom launchers are the best available.

Thanks! I like it!!!! The phone is fast & smooooooth I appreciate the download, man.
Love,
Gwen

I just installed the Autorotate version from RECOVERY and i felt no change at aLL except new wallpapers.The home screen aint rotating at all and the top drawer is same old white opaque one.Am i missing something?

Same thing with me, I downloaded it and everything is the same. When the phone first booted I selected launcher to be the one I use, and nothing changed. I did however get wallpapers. Woohoo -.-

yea those two things are the problems with the launcher,
it seems that everything is good till you try to change background or go to settings for the launcher, it will be pretty cool is someone could fix it cuz its a very nice android launcher, that hasnt been done in any other android phone before.
**and with the notification bar the actual Acer liquid stream phone coming out later on this summer when i saw the youtube unbox and demo, i think the notification bar is right in the middle of the bar where you drag your applications to go up instead of being on top like other phones.
just like this

to fix the setttings force closing you have to push system/media/wallpaper and system/media/AcerDatabases into the system media folder and it will work.
You get that from the dump of the liquid. here is a link to download the dump if anyone wants to try it

Ok, so I am a ****n idiot, I need to know how I push those files without rooting, because I have an EVO™ 4g with 2.2.

hmm wonder if the entire ui widgets and all that great stuff could be ported over hmmm.....

This launcher is really cool, much better than Touchwiz and Motoblur garbage

So I installed it, set it as my default launcher for about 3min, and now I can't set a wallpaper in landscape resolution...basically I'm now stuck with a non-scrolling wallpaper.
EDIT: A reboot fixes the issue. Phew!

Hope some awesome dev ports this to the evo

I got it to not force close. Don't know if it will work for anyone else but here is what i did. Slide screen to the right to view your photos, select an album then select a photo after selecting photo to view hit the menu button and set as wallpaper. Now that you have manually selected a wallpaper you can long press on home screen without it force closing. You can not select the pre-installed wallpapers but you can select any wallpapers you manually made and you can also select live wallpapers. Let me know if it works for you.

I second that! this is quite awesome, can we place this where it might get noticed? it is in its proper place though, well I it gets noticed

good to here.

Native Launcher from G2 with 7 Home Screens/customizable Hot keys

The launcher from the Tmobile G2 now has 7 home screens, and the hot keys ( Phone and browser buttons) are customizable. The only problem is, the apk that allows you to customize the hot keys force closes every time you try to open it. Is there a way a developer can fix the apk so it doesnt force close?
Im attaching the 2 apks
Also, dont say to just get launcher pro or adw, i have them both already

That would be awesome I hope somebody can fix the .apk

i dont mean to sound like a noob, but how do you install the launcher2 apk?

What is the point of this when we have LauncherPro and ADW which allow FULL customization?

I wonder does this include the new Google voice widget?

No, you have to get the new Google Voice from here for that. Note: The dialer button doesn't work with Sense ROMs.

Anyway, i for one hate ADW AND LauncherPro. I think they make the phone look like a fake chinese knock off. I'd take Sense over anything but the AOSP Launcher which i am currently running over the newest Bakedsnack, it's like Ava's V10 Froyo that never happened. .
Good job OP, i appreciate your contribution to the community.

Honestly, ADW is almost an exact replica of this, just with tons more features.
This launcher is nice, especially the 3D drawer (better than LauncherPro's 3D drawer because of the smoothing on the top and bottom rows), and may be the best "stock" launcher.
I'm a LauncherPro Plus guy, but I'll have this one running alongside it when the orientation issue and hotkeys are fixed up.
Edit: Whoops, there's no orientation issue...I forgot forgot that its a feature in both LP and ADW, haha.

1. I didn't read his full post.
2. I was making a logical argument.
3. How do ADW and LauncherPro make the phone look cheap when they can look EXACTLY like the AOSP launcher?

maybe ADW does but launcher pro does not, in launcher pro you can customize the icons in the dock and have your own images there to make it look however you want, my launcher pro i customized to make it look almost exactly like the Stock froyo launcher, it looks great.

download it from your device then open it up with astros or preferred file manager, or just mount you device on you computer and drag the file to your sd card then put your device in charge only mode and open with astros, etc. and install

NICE! Thank you! Are you running ADW on your phone? I noticed on your home screen you don't have the standard 5 icon dock. Always fun to try something new!

You bet!
yep, ADW ex is my go-to launcher. I like launcherpro and golauncher as well, but I still find ADW ex to be the most stable and fastest home replacement for my needs.

Nice - simply elegant in it's style, much like how a black and white photo stands out in a sea of color confusion.
I like how crisp monochrome-type color schemes are, and nothing is better then something like that.
Nice background, btw

Me too - though now that I have a device capable of really using GO for what it's good for I don't know that i'll be using ADW much on this phone anymore...
Looking forward to seeing what else you cook up!

thanks for this. I like it so much better than stock...

When I installed this, it got rid of my status bar entirely... I wiped, re-installed ROM and then installed this again and it did the same thing...
I have Pauls' de-odexed ROM on my device, I'll try downloading and installing the non de-odexed version I suppose. It seems like it's working for everyone else so I may have some sort of quirk? Any suggestions? I'm wiping cache/dalvik, too.

totally agree.. I was using golauncher when I first got the phone and it is so much better than it was on my G2. always felt like it was a bit too resource hungry even for that phone, which is by no means a slouch.
to be honest, there are really only two main reasons why I prefer adw over the other home replacements: the 3D vertical app drawer is buttery smooth and works in portrait and landscape, and david1171's minimalist themes are perfect for my setup. so yeah, mainly aesthetics. performance-wise, especially on this phone, I don't think it makes much difference which launcher you use.

[APP]GS3 Touchwiz launcher porting

Hi guys, I'm trying to port SecLauncher2.apk from GS3 Rom to my SGS2 and should also work on note.
This is a test so maybe there are bugs!
If you want to try give me a feedback
push libdrawglfunction.so in /system/lib/
and SecLauncher2.apk in /system/app/

No bugs, but for someone else to play with:
- 5 icons in dock (which is fine and useful)
- 4 icons on the desktop
- 4 icons in the drawer
If someone could fix this, I believe a lot of people would kiss you.

Nice work bro, just need to resize now .

Sorry for the double post.
I think there is 5 icons but the size of the launcher is not correct for our device and we see only 4 docks.
We need to resize the launcher.

I was about to say it doesn't need a resize for us, but I see what you mean - the margins are way off and widgets get cut, but we could just scrap our huge widgets and change them out with SGS3 widgets... or resize for 5 icons, margin and use both types of widgets.
EDIT ADD: Saw your doublepost. The launcher was directly ported. The OP did not resize it for the SGS2. It's exactly the same on the S3.

Please make 5x5 grid in homescreen and drawer and we'll love you!

It was just resized for SGS2. Maaaaybe he'll take his time and add a fifth row. <3

Nice
Nice work man, if the porting will continue, i strongly believe that our note will be running s3 rom, very , very soon!

I don't have a note to test it...could someone give me some screenshot?

Guide for whoever wants to take it upon themselves and add a new column. I assume it's the same way for this touchwiz.

Excuse my AOSP icons. It's a stock rocket rom feature and no SGS3 theme has been made yet. I'm trying to google how to do it myself, but alas...

It's working great as long i don't launch any application, when i lunch an application, it force closes.
