Launcher 7 delay - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi!
I'm experiencing some delay in Launcher 7 lately, i have the donate version 1.0.0.90 and am using it on a Galaxy S I9000 running 2.3.4
Sometimes when I hit the homebutton everything is still black, if I try to scroll the non animated tiles show up, but it seems "frozen". I can start apps but don't get the animation for it, also the app drawer list is not showing any apps. After a while, let's say 10 seconds, the animated contact tile is showing again and all the apps are listed in the app drawer, but this only holds as long as I don't open an app and return the launcher again :/
Anyone experiencing the same issues?
Thanks in advance, Smirny

Home screen keeps restarting. Xperia x10i android 2.3.3

Last night flashed generic 2.3.3 from forum to phone. All running fine till today. Sometimes when exiting apps its like the home app has restarted. I lose the icons either side of the app drawer button then they come back. Weirdly if i go into the drawer lots of the icons have been replaced by empty space or a grey box. Then they slowly re appear. Anyone ever had this? All the menu order settings default also. Returning to my setting when what i guess is the home app finishes re loading.

[Q] Vanishing Widgets with JB

Hi,
Just got HTC One X today and immediately updated to JB. After installing my apps and setting it up, I noticed that certain widgets would disappear from my home screen (Nova Launcher) and from lock screen (WidgetLocker). Only certain widgets - Battery Widget Reborn, Power Toggles, Smooth Calendar. After a reboot, they show up as grey boxes and I would have to tap and setup the widget again. Also noticed that SwiftKey would no longer be set as default keyboard and I would have to disable/re-enable to be able to choose it again.
Messed around and it's the same behavior with the stock launcher but with that, they the widgets just disappear altogether.
I did a system erase and pretty much nothing installed, same behavior. I've played with every setting to see if that had an effect but no different.
Has anyone encountered this or have any ideas on what's going on?
Thanks in advance.

App icons disappearing from home screen (GEL)

This is an odd and extremely minor problem that I'm not really losing sleep over. But I'm curious if other people are experiencing this.
Sometimes, not all the time, when an app that I have a shortcut to on my Google Experience Launcher home screen is updated by the Play Store, its shortcut on the homescreen disappears. I can't figure out if this is for auto-updated apps, or if these are for apps that I have to manually update. But I definitely have noticed a connection between updates and icon disappearances.
Am I crazy? Or is this a bug?
Me too

I thought I was the only one! It is a very strange glitch.
I think this happens when the application icon has been updated. Some apps remove the existing icon while others leave the (old) icon but the app drawer will have the new icon.
There are a lot of app icons that are "fuzzy" on the Nexus 5 so I would expect that quite a few are updated.

[Q] Homescreen added while uninstalling an app

Whenever i try to unistall an app from the app drawer by dragging the app icon to the uninstall icon, a new homescreen automatically gets added.
While other homescreens are denoted by small dots this new homescreen is denoted by a small + sign.
I noticed this while i was on 4.4 and even now while i'm on 4.4.2.
I tried replicating the same other ICS device but it did not happen on that device.
Anyone else getting this?? Or is there something that i'm doing wrong??

Nova Launcher switches to One UI when i clear recent apps

Hi, I have a Samsung S10+ running Android 10 and One UI 2.5.
I am constantly getting an issue with Nova Launcher where if i clear my recent apps the screen refreshes and then One UI takes over and it goes to that home screen rather than Nova. If i then press the Home button again it then takes me back to Nova's home screen again and does stay there until i clear my recent apps again.
Nova is definitely set to the default launcher and when this happens i go into the Nova settings and it shows no launcher is set as default, i then set it as default but the same thing keeps happening each time.
I have tried clearing the cache from both Nova and One UI but this didn't fix anything.
Is this a know issue? It has happened for a while but wasn't that annoying but since a recent android update it seems to be happening all the time now.
Does anyone know if i can fix this?
Thanks
James

Yes , it's because since Android 10, the nav bar and recent UI are managed by your default launcher. That's really infuriating I know. But if you root your device with magisk, there is a module called QuickSwitch that allows you to set a third-party launcher as the nav bar UI provider.
Hope that helps
