Hey all, this mod is for those who are having launcher redraws on GB. This was an issue since GB was released. For those who don't know, a redraw is, simply put, when your launcher's icons all disappear but reload after a few seconds.
Here's what you do:
1) Get your launcher moved into /system/app. You should do this from a clean flash (edit the ROM.zip, put it in, and rezip the file). You could try to manually push this, but I don't know how that'll work. You could also try to convert it into a system app by using Titanium Backup PAID (thank you shawnshine for this one).
To get the apk for your launcher, you should uninstall it and reinstall it. Once you reinstall your launcher, go to /cache and look for downloadfile.apk. That's the app you just recently downloaded (in this case, it's your launcher). Save that downloadfile.apk, rename it to whatever you want, and move it into /system/app whenever you flash a new ROM.
2) Edit the build.prop for your ROM. Use Notepad++ and add this line at the bottom, without quotes: "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1" Save the changes to your build.prop. You can manually push this and this seems to work as well.
This thread is really made so you guys could get the edited build.prop and push them yourselves. I'm including only the most recent GB ROMs.
3) Flash your ROM and enjoy less redraws. If you choose to manually push it, wipe your dalvik cache and fix permissions.
I take NO credit for any of this. jager555 was the one who mentioned #1. AntonX is the one who mentioned #2. Of course, all the build.props that have been edited belong to the respective developers who tweaked it and such.
If the developers have a problem with me posting their build.props here, please let me know, and I'll remove it.
UPDATE: Here's a short explanation of why this thread died down. When 2.3.6 was just released, I tried using this mod again to fix the build.props for all ROMs. Unfortunately, it seemed to be ineffective, so I dropped this completely. However, icy56 recently informed me that this still works on 2.3.6 (at least the newest ROMs), so I decided to pick this up again!
Below are the three most commonly used ROMs on this forum atm (Valhalla Black Edition, ICBINB 2.3.7 v2, and AOSP Style X). For those of you who haven't made the move yet, I kept the older ROMs in Older ROMs.zip.
Let me know how this works for all of you! I know it definitely made a difference on LauncherPro and GO Launcher EX.
Sick!! Thanks works great it was def an annoying issue.. I just moved the apk in root explorer and reinstalled into system app

hey just wanted to say i can attest that these settings do lessen the withdraws.
For launcherpro users, settings that have completely stopped withdraws for me are setting memory usage to low, not checking "prevent FCs", and checking "keep in memory"
EDIT: Forget this post. It was another issue.
Wouldn't using the "convert to system app" function in Titanium Backup Pro for your preferred launcher do the same thing?
I pushed it and didn't lose settings.. like I said I moved adw from data app to system app and then immediately clicked install and it reinstalled successfully
The launcher will fc if you hit home without reinstalling in system app

The only reason why I don't want to set the memory usage to "low" is because it makes my previews lag with 7 screens. Also, I've been reading that we should keep the memory usage as "high" instead.

I'm not sure. I've never tried that. I put it into the OP just in case though. Once I get someone's confirmation, I'll put it as one of the methods.

What's causing your redraws? I usually get a redraw after playing Cut the Rope for a level or two, but now it doesn't happen at all.
Yay!! It worked. I played Nova 2 for a while and my launcher didn't redraw still!

I put in the Beautiful SGS4G modded build.prop. Try manually pushing that into /system. Go into CWM, wipe your dalvik cache and fix permissions. Let your phone sit for 10-15 minutes afterwards to let the dalvik cache rebuild.
Keep in mind that wiping the dalvik cache and fixing permissions are optional, but it would be safer to do that.

Lock screen
Sorry for hijack but My lock screen is too sensitive and my phone is always unlocking in my pocket and then making calls, sending texts and changing things around, its starting to pi** me off a bit.
I need a proper lockscreen that needs a password or something to enable phone.
I bought app protector from the market but that just messes with the whole phone big time, disabled.
Just activate the additional pattern lock under android settings --> security. your phone shouldn't be able to draw a pattern specified by you

I would like to remove the se lock screen as well and replace it with stock android. I tried many apps in the market but none of them work properly. So in my search I was looking to disable it manually. Interestingly enough when I removed the phone.apk it removed the lock as well. I couldn't use the phone but at least no lockscreen . Anyways i think modifying the phone.apk is what needs to happen unfortunately i don't have the knowledge to do this yet...

Ashame lockbot does not work on the X10. I have problems with the lock as well. Sometimes i miss calls because it hangs In de top, very annoying.
Lock 2.0 from market Works for x10 and is great, a bit Luke s2u2. Full version Allied you to change settings to your likings.
i use adw launcher, dont change your settings in adw after installing lock2 otherwise the default lockscreen Comes back for some reason and you end up with a Double lockscreen. Further it is the best lock screen on the market for our phone. Hope this will help.

I'm a huge fan of goto but sometimes a lil bit laggy
I've tried all sorts of lockscreens and apps that disable the stock lockscreen. I still always end up with the stock lockscreen coming back, so I have to unlock stock and whatever lockscreen app I had installed. Some of them didn't disable the stock at all, some did but randomly the stock would come back after some time

No real solution im afraid, you can try changing your task killer to only kill apps every couple of hours and ignore the GOTO application, or uninstall it completely, this helps.
I now use Lockbot pro which i think looks better than GOTO + its got 100's of themes, but i sometimes see the SE lock screen, hardly ever, but still seen it, whereas with GOTO i never saw it.

Unfortunatly GOTO is a paid app so its against forum rules to post the .apk.
Google is your friend, or pay for it.
The only way to change the default lock screen is by tampering with the /system files. Don't think anyone has been successful in revamping it. The only progress I've seen was the arrow being changed to a different image.

I think you have set Advanced Task Killer to "kill when screen off". This setting turns on the screen when you use goto, it's some kind of bug. Just use a setting like "kill every 30 min" or something like that and goto will work fine.
btw. you should read the topics about how pointless Task Killers are on Android. They're often even making things like battery life and smoothness of the device worse. Here's one of the many topics about it on the forum
I have no lock installed but i still get the SE's lock screen and Lockbot is not there most of the time ...
Well, sometime Lockbot appears after i unlock the SE one ... which is stupid.

Hey everyone, I want to preface this with apologies if this indeed happens to be an issue previously resolved, i just cannot for the life of me seem to find any info on the subject. This is a big problem for me. For a frame of reference I am running CM7 with Fauxs kernel with the newer looking market update. Dont know when i got this update, just kinda happened, but then you know, i hate it. First of all i cant figure out how to browse all the apps like i used to. In the old market i could browse everything and see if i wanted to mess around with stuff. Now they only show the tops in certain categories or you have to search for it yourself. Hate that. Also, i am having an issue with downloading apps. The little blue download button is just not there on most apps and I am failing to figure out a reason why. some apps have it some dont. some will have it one day and not have it the next. I am really confused and need help. If you know whats wrong with me Id appreciate a hand!
Thanks,
Depressed Android User
Hmmm still having a difficult time seeing what the problem is. The only solution i can think of is to re-flash the latest CM7 Rom along with the latest gapps and make sure to wipe factory data, cache, dalvik, format/system, and fix permissions.
Hope this helps. But when i mess around with my phone too much and do something stupid, this method always works for me. Good luck sir.

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.

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?

I have tried searching but haven't found an answer.
Being a relative newbie, I like trying out different ROMS. Is there a way of saving page layouts that can be restored once the new ROM is loaded, or do all my previous pages have to be recreated by hand?

Too many variables and too much potential for config conflicts. best to recreate by hand, or flash less often

None of the backup apps will restore the widgets. This is due to the way android works. you will have to reset up the widgets each time you flash a rom.
