I loved to use adw in the past but recently the updates made it unusable for me... so i am looking for a replacement...
Maybe i should just stick to an old version of adw (i unfortunatly didnt backup mine before updating)
So what are you guys using?
Ps: and please dont tell me to google or "this thread already exists" coz i want new information
Yea, ADW has started crashing on ocassions, its really annoying. Dont know what alternative is good like this.
ADW ftw! Never had an issue with it.
I for one am interested in trying the LG Optimus launcher once we get Eclair. Im an organization freak so the customizable app drawer appeals to me. Also looking forward to trying Launcher Pro Plus with Eclair. Currently using ADW and have no problems.

Have you not tried the "group" feature in ADW? Open the app drawer and press the menu button - choose group - New catalog, name it, choose apps to be in it, then when you go into the app drawer you just press the menu button and choose your new group.
I had been using Slidescreen pro since last 3 weeks and with facebook and Google reader integration working with it,i have laid Timescape and the old ADW launcher to rest in peace.
I can assure you would get a different experience once you start using it........

Yeah i use the group feature. I like it but the LG has all apps on one screen with groups seperated by heavy lines with titles. Im being fussy here is all ADW is by far my fav to date. Just looking to try something new.

damn i have to write somewhere in my profile that i started to code my own stuff when i was 15 years old ...
sure i tried to reinstall, delete settings, reset, just restart, play with different settings and i even tried to talk to it (j/k)... none of the things worked ...
can you do me a favor and try to press and hold the home key to switch between recent apps and then press the home key again?
everytime i do this i have to set it as default home again - this is way more annoying then the little crashes i experience all the time and for me it makes adw totally useless now ...

thx guys ... and wtf i cant get it to work
try LIVEHOME which is also a home screen replacement, nearly the same as adw but has a few more features, one of them is transitions, you can flick through you home screens like pages in a book (love it). Try it out.

ok after playing around a lot with settings i have to apologize to my beloved adw launcher
ok it still crashes a lot in the newer version but my main problem - that it cant remember the default home - is on the stock android homescreen too so i guess somehow my software is ****ed up *cry* ...
guess i have to reflash (god damnit this **** is more buggy then windows 95)
edit: btw livehome looks really nice ... i like that you can change the icons in the drawer
Update: after reinstall and some hours later i got crashes again and that home-button problem too.
Now i set only the adw-homescreen to "dont auto-rotate" and i have no problems now.

Missed your Wrist Watch? Now you have a new clock design and fancy buttons and new Font!
As my gift to XDA members, this app is free for limited time. If you want to support me buy it on market -->
***Icons in "add alarm" have same color as the watch, i just didnt uploaded pics for those
Link
It only takes 1 sec to click on "Thanks button".
Dear devs, plz do not add the clock to your roms. Thank you.
Credit: 4 Menu buttons are from Miuitheme/Glowbuster theme.
Thanks for you great efforts.
NOTES: App should work for most roms, some devices running gingerbread might have issues. If app finds enough fans, gingerbread version will also be added.
Instructions:
1) Clean cache in your stock Clock app and remove the old widget.
2)rebooting not necessary but recommended.
3)Copy it to your sdcard and install it with your favorite installer
4) Enjoy!

Hey,
Great looking app, can't wait to try it out.
Just installed it to my Desire HD (stock rom, 1.72 firmware) via adb and whenever I try to add the widget to my home screen, it tells me "no more room on this homescreen". This is with LauncherPRO.
On restart of my phone I also got a message saying that the process had crashed and had to force close. (app loads fine however, just not able to put the widget on)
Any suggestions?
I just tried it on my galaxy s it says no enough romm in this page in both launcher pro and touchwiz.
When i open the app it force close and keep doing the same.
I really want this watch but no luck.

There was no need to use adb! It's similar to stock but not same app. The widget will occupy the whole screen. Did you have another shortcuts on the screen when u tried?

Thanks man , looks great and attractive to me . Will give it a try now.
Btw can this directly be installed from the market? Unlike other apps which require root access plus fiddling with the adb process and commands?

Heh, only reason I used adb was because I downloaded the apk on my desktop, and my phone was plugged in but not mounted. I'm lazy like that XD
And yeah, I tried it on an empty home screen, so no other widgets on it.

It's me or there isn't a way to have it orange by now?
Thanks
Hey Adam, I've been toying around with the launcher pro settings, just found, your widget uses a 5x5 layout currently which may be why many people are having issues not being able to add this to a home screen since the default is 4x4.
Any chance of a 4x4 version?
Cheers

After all this time the honeycomb gmail widget still doesn't refresh properly when new emails come in (or always show the correct unread - bolded - items).. have cleared the cache, cleared the app data and re set up settings, forced closed (it then works for the first few emails and breaks again)...
anyone else getting this, or know of a longer term fix please? I'd really prefer to use the gmail app rather than the asus one if possible

I think what your experiencing is market has updated. It is now known as playstore and has a new icon. I've never heard of market just deleting itself.

its this. i was freaking out when it happened haha
if you dont see the Play Store, then reset the phone and it should pop up. but the Android Market app and its icon are gone.
No i mean when sometimes my wifes sk4g the market app will suddenly remove it self from her phone.... She will attempt to open it and it will say application not installed but it was there before hand

yea chances are the Play Store is already installed on the phone, just look for it.

Have you tried Fix permissions from CWM Recovery?
If so, and it's still not fixed...you need to backup your SDcard, format it, let it reinstall itself once on Android and bam.
IF STILL NOTHING, you may need to go a step further...ODIN to KJ2, clear cache partition and dalvik cache, fix permissions (just to be safe), check your mounts, then flash. Enable Wi-Fi on Default so the ROM can download the update from Android Market to Google Play after your first reboot. IF THERE'S STILL AN ISSUE AFTER THIS, sorry it has me stumped.
Ok let's get this straight.
This happened to everyone with the market first switched to Google Play, the icon on your homescreen will change to that because the system can no longer find the application Market.apk, but in your app drawer the play store will be there. Just move the play store to a shortcut on your homescreen. The reason that it comes back when u reflash is because you are just reflashing the old, unupdated market, then when you open it again it will delete the Market.apk and install the play store.

No that's not the issue. The problem is sometimes her phone will freeze and when restarted market is completely gone has nothing to do with transition to play store just the market totally removes it self

I have had apps dissappear from the phone, leaving only a generic green android icon in it's place. I am not sure why this happens, but it usually seems to be after an abnormal reboot. I was thinking it could have something to do with the the SK's seemingly sloppy implementation of putting apps on the sdcard, but the market app is probably stored on the phone, so I dunno.
anyway, were you able to get it back?

Hi all,
I have a couple of strange issues using Google calendar on my HTC u11.
1.
When a press new event button I see a 'flat' interface instead of classic one.
See screenshots attached please.
On my Nexus 7 (same accounts, same calendars, same application version) all appear normally.
2.
I cannot swipe to delete event. Swipe gesture doesn't work.
On my Nexus works perfectly.
I tried of course to clear calendar data, install fresh but nothing.
Latest Google calendar version installed of course.
Recently updated ota 1.27 but the same.
Anyone is experiencing same issued?
Thx
Not sure what you mean by flat interface, however just created an event and can swipe to delete and short swipe to tap trash can to delete. Both ways work just fine. Im on Sprint 1.28. and latest as well.
All works normal for me. Leedroid.

Look at differences between your screenshots and mine.
When you press plus button in your case you see other colored buttons.

I will change calendar app awaiting a fix ever if it's a Google calendar bug in some situations
After a lot of experiments, finally I discovered what is causing the issue.
It's an app called Nougat Quick settings: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.simonesestito.ntiles
It need accessibility permissions to allow it to create custom tiles in the quick settings bar.
I have contacted app developer that confirms this bug.
Once disabled accessibility permissions, Google calendar works fine but custom tiles stop working.
I hope this is useful to others having similar issues.
BTW Ty all for your support.

You can get custom tiles with shortcutter by @LeeDroid mate. Try it out. It doesn't interfere with any other App like GCalendar
