Regina Launcher? - General Questions and Answers

Seems to of been pulled off the market, unless it's just me?
Anyone else notice this? I've searched for the author as well and have come up with nothing.

Got the same prob...
Got a notification earlier saying that there were updates available, so went to the Market to update. Among the updates were also one for Regina, but it couldn't install :/ I've also tried searching, but found nothing..
I think that maybe it's about to exit beta, so pulling it from Market to launch "final" version might be necessary. I don't really see any other reason for removing it??

Would make sense. Its nearly perfect now, its performance has greatly increased

Same, they pulled it from the market. So do I think that beta time ended and the final version is close to come

Just updated my rom, reinstalling everything and the launcher wasnt there. I am very glad to know it isnt just me either. I thought it was something I did because other things were working as well. Hope it comes back soon. Developers took huge strides in improvement and has gradually became 1 of my faves.

Yup I'm looking for it and its not there :/

They temporarily pulled it due to the latest update crashing some phones.

Swype Open Beta

http://beta.swype.com/
Get swype...legally..
nice^^ gonna try it now
Hmm...3mb download or the version I already have that is only 3mb installed.... I bet it doubles in size by the time it is installed. I'll try anyway though
I stand corrected, its just a little over 4mb installed.
I DL it and its ok. its better than the normal keyboard IMO but the whole swypin thing will take some time to get use to
yeah ive been playing with swype for a couple of weeks now and i really do like it more than the stock htc. its much less laggy in my experience^^ and might be like a couple of seconds faster, and im a pretty fast typer if i get going at it =P
I've been using since the first leaked versions and love it, don't even remember how to type with the stock keypad anymore. My main gripe is that thewords you add to the user dictionary don't stay after a reboot. And I swear a lot in texts....so getting duck instead of f*ck blows...other than that, it does come up with some random words and abbreviations some times

lol i so hear you on that one, its my one and only gripe >.<
doesnt seem to work on my rooted hero. it says when I open it "some features may not work since it is for a different phone". the leaked beta worked perfectly so IDK.
I noticed the not saving dictionary thing too, but wonder if that was just the leaked versions. Just installed the beta, haven't cursed yet so hasn't been added. They seem to be moving pretty quick dev-wise, and this is much more polished and seemingly faster than the leaked versions.
looks better than the leaked version... i wonder how many people they're giving this to and how many times it can be downloaded

This happened to me as well, however I think it may have just been a bad installation and/or due to the fact I had the leaked beta version installed prior to installing this one even though I uninstalled it first. I uninstalled both swype and the application installer then rebooted my phone then reinstalled the swype installer and then swype and all is working now and I didn't get that error message.

Yup, that was it... thanks
works fine on GBHils 2.1a rom.
Agreed, no problems on Gumbo 2.1
No problems on DarchDroid v1.
I have used it for an hour now. and this is awesome. I will def purchase when it comes out..
basically everytime you install a new version of swype (leaked OR Official) you MUST uninstall the old version first through settings>manage applications
i installed swype last night. Got the email downloaded. Havenot even used it for a day and now its not working telling me to buy the full version?????
Lame

Is Froyo Stable?

so now that there is a froyo leak out for our phones, is it stable enough to update to it? i was thinking of going for the cognition v2.2 froyo, but obviously dont want a ton on unreliability problems lol...so whats the status on that?
I can't speak to cognition, but I have been running Froyo since it came out a few days ago (no root or lagfix) and it seems fine. Some have complained about lag - if it is there, it is not near as bad as stock 2.1. Others have said the browser has a memory leak - i have not run into that yet either.
Overall the plusses outway the minuses. I am happy with it so far. I have not had any crashes or FCs and the GPS is no worse then JH7. Unless i find a show stopper issue, I will keep it for now.
oh cool, so is it a final release of froyo or was it just a beta leak?

I would call it Beta. There is still stuff that looks like they ported the i9000 Rom over and they still need to do a little clean up. Some EU spellings of things, some minor bugs, Wireless AP and USB tether are present.
I think this is the 2.2 Captivate Base that they will build from. A solid Beta, but not the final.
It has been running fine for me. Once Rom Manager gets updated things will be great. Only AppsInstaller doesn't work for me but its not really that big of a deal.
This FROYO is actually very stable in that everything works perfect.............Have been running for 24 hrs barely so theres a bit more testing needed but yea its definately a GO . At first i got a couple of force closes on several of stock apps like music, phone, and a couple of others but only happend once and never happen again kind of like if it was still setting up or something but besides that and some odd color changes 2.2 is stunning i notice an overall snappier feel market 2x quiker (i dont use lag fix because it ruinned my OS a few times thats just me) and with root enabled the limitations are infinate
I've only been using it for half the day, but I have to say that samsung fixed most of the little annoying problems with this phone. We finally got the phone we paid for with the exception of lag. It's still there, but the one click lag fix solves that. All in all,i recommend the update. Especially with cognition.
cognition 2.2
I'm running the most recent release of Cognition 2.2 for Froyo with the built in one click lag fix. (Even though I really didn't even need to run the lag fix, its that smooth) It is sick. Phone is just silky smooth in all aspects. The only thing I noticed was that flash was slowing the browser down a little, but only on super large pages with tons of plug ins like huffingtonpost so I set the plug in setting to "on demand" and now I can't find a page large enough to slow down the browser. I put it next to my friends new Iphone4 and it was embarassing how much faster the Captivate was loading pages. Only things that arent working on 2.2 yet are titanium backup, which you really shouldnt use for this anyway since you don't want to install 2.1 apps on the 2.2 update, and Rom manager, but I fully expect that with the level of support we've seen from the Rom dev, he will have it updated in no time as well as an update for Titanium. Overall, I almost feel for the first time that I no longer need to scour the forums looking for ways to improve the phone. It is just sick (have I said how sick it is?) how well it runs with Cognition. GPS works perfectly, and I don't mean just getting locks. I put it on my dash and have been driving around a lot for two days and My Tracks is right on. My position does not drift off the road AT ALL anymore. No more being on other streets and otherwise just drifting around all nilly willy. GPS Test shows at least 6 or 7 locked satellites and usually 9 or 10 locked. I don't think I would get better performance out of a Garmin or Tom Tom. It does get better sat locks on the dash with a clear view of the sky rather than in the cup holder in the center console however, but that is to be expected with any GPS device. Even so, it was still fully functional in the cupholer.
I installed by Odin one click back to stock, did a GSM Master Reset via the phone keypad *2767*3855# then rooted, put the downloaded Cognition 2.2 file on my internal sd card, and then installed with Rom Manager, (works because I'm back on 2.1 at this point) I HIGHLY recommend this. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all the spare time I just freed up by not having to flash my phone a million more times
P.S. If you can, donate a few bucks to DesignGears for the work he has done with this. It's totally worth it! It's amazing that he's gotten a ROM out so fast with the release and he is constantly working on, upgrading, and tweaking his work to make it better. (which is why im sure I'll be flashing again in the future /cry)

What does that have to do with Froyo as a stable OS?

Go to pocketnow.com (full desktop version) and click through a few articles there. Muhahaha. Scrolling will become ultra slow, other apps will be forced out of memory, and you may even get a browser crash if you're lucky. That's the memory leak bug.

Go to the site and open your task manager. Is the browser not using about 100 MB of memory? Memeory leak.
The FroYo build is stable and fast. I like it.
I rolled back. It is stable - but some of the underlying features are broken. Forwarding emails does not include any comments you make. Google contact groups now work, but the listed names map to the wrong contacts.
Some nice improvements overall, but some issues are show stoppers for me. It won't crash though - or at least it didn't for me.
Has anyone tried enabling jit on this? I know it was attempted on 2.1 but no one made it past the lock screen before it bootlooped on the galaxy s. 2.2 is made for jit & it should be more stable now right? All I could find in the forums is how to do this for other phones like the droid x (sounds pretty unstable though) & im too much of a noob to figure out how to apply that to my captivate to try it.

Froyo has been pretty stable for me, and certainly better overall than 2.1 was. It still needs work to have what I would call a well-polished feel, but overall I find it to be an upgrade.
I'm hoping it is a beta, and we'll get an even better one soon

Do you think we will get touch wiz 4 in an update?

I doubt we will , samsung doesn't care nor does any other manufacturer, not even the droid x2 or the photon is running the new motorola application like the droid 3

Nope. But we have our attempts at porting it

There is a TW4 launcher you can install but it's VERY buggy, I installed the apk and about 15 minutes later just reflashed Eclipse to get rid of it. I knew my homepages would get reset but i couldnt handle the amount of glitches.
On topic, we probably won't get TW4; in-fact we probably won't even get ICS but we can hope. They did just release and OTA for TW4 to some tablet(not sure which one) so....

I only had a couple of minor bugs with TW4.5, certainly nothing that was a deal breaker. I've been running it for a couple of weeks now and am very happy with it. I'm just running a stock deodexed EE4 ROM that I debloated to my liking. Different people have different experiences with it. It's a keeper for me, though.
I use TW4 and it works perfect, well mine does at least. I always use the stock apps but re-imaged them so they have the same icons as TW4. Works good.

I used it on Froyo and did not like its alignment , but with GB EP1Q its resolved.
What bugs did you find in them?
As far as I know, TW4 is meant for Samsung's SGS2 lineup, and is built around the hardware offered in the newer device. Doubt they're going to back-port it themselves.

Q: Why are my homescreens lagging?

Every now and then my homescreens gets very sluggish and laggy, to make them turn I really need to be explicit and slow in gesturing. It seems to start at random, haven't found anything that appears to set it off.
Reebooting solves the problem, until next time of course. Getting quite annoyed with it at this point.
I have tried disabling live wallpaper and taking a look at what apparently are running, but it doesn't seems to be the problem.
It's a nexus s i9023 running 2.3.6 stock. Not rooted.
Hope there's a reply out there, thank you.

what possibly happened was you may have bunch of apps that autorun themselves when certain events occur such as when you regain network signal, receive a phone call, turn on screen, etc... over time these apps take up cpu which cause the lags you're experiencing. i would suggest rooting your phone and install Rom Toolbox or buy Autostarts app to stop some of these apps from autorunning.. The Nexus S is the easiest and most painless device to root.

I'm running almost the same apps as on my old Wildfire, and enver encountered the problem with it.
I'd prefer not to root my phone at this point. Bought just under a month ago, with the idea of running stock to see how the "pure android" experience was
I also find it hard to imagine that there isn't another way around the problem.
It just doesn't make sense to me that it takes so little to bog down the phone and that the solution is root
mine got very slow on 2.3.6 after not having done a wipe for 6-7 months. I didn't even have many apps installed. The phone runs a lot faster on ICS rooted or not.
Yeah, I've heard it should run better with ics and I'm quite tempted to just go for it with one of the many ROMs out there. Must admit I'm hoping for the official ota to arrive soon. I'd like to keep the phone unrooted so it'll recieve the official update. But if the wait proves too long I might just have to find a good ROM
Any advice for a stable no-fuzz ROM that won't cause me too many issues with stuff not working properly?
The issues with the lagging homescreens have been present in 2.3.3 as well. Was hoping 2.3.6 would fix it, but alas:-\

you can also just install advanced task killer (free on market) and kill some apps that are running and u might not need them.
Also you can try the Go lancher Ex (free on market - is a lancher that runs themes and schemes, from my experience this app make everything run smoother and faster).
Anyway like others said already custom ISC are really nice to use
cheers
Installed ADW launcher.EX and it appears to have solved the issues. Thanks for the input

What's up with liquidsmooth on my I9300 Samsung galaxy S3?

As I said in my older thread about custom roms, I've successfully installed the liquidsmooth rom on my S3, it is awesome, well it looks awesome but I have a few issues, one is minor but the other is major..
First the minor issues, I discovered that the Google play store app is missing, which made getting stuff a major challenge! Until I figured out a way to install aptoide as a replacement for it, which also wasn't easy, as liquidsmooth comes with a crappy browser that doesn't even launch.. So I had to install Firefox in some way in order to load aptoide, can't remember how I did it, it was one long hectic day yesterday.. Anyway the point is, I tried downloading and installing the play store app and it just keeps crashing when I try to load it. I tried restarting and different versions of it but to no avail, is there no hope for this?
Here's the major issue, one that might force me to abandon liquidsmooth and maybe go with the cyanogen mod, which I tried but didn't really like because of the android version it uses, 4.0.4! I mean on the stock Samsung os I was already in version 4.1.2 so I wasn't happy with having to go backwards.. I digress, the major issue I'm having is with the phone, people tried calling me and it rings once on their end then goes into a busy signal, and my phone doesn't even seem to know it happened! This is a phone first and therefore it doesn't matter how cool liquidsmooth looks and feels, without a proper phone its almost pointless! Is there a fix to this problem guys? I sure hope so.. In addition, sometimes I'm downloading something and it just freezes, none of the buttons work, forcing me to reboot the entire phone, what's up with that? Is liquidsmooth just flawed that way?
Thank you for reading, I hope you can help, I would sure appreciate it.
Peace
