Just wanted to post this over here for anyone who missed it. It's the Launcher for the Xperia Arc. I did not do any development or hacking to get this to work. Just reposting it here for you guys and letting you know it works great on the G2x! I am running Eaglesblood 2.4. The digital clock widgets are giving me problems but other than that everything else works great.

Thanks for the tip. Does the corners work with ours?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Corners appear to work fine for me. Just hoping alphabetical setting will stick which it didn't on the old m11 launcher.

Alphabetical setting stuck with mine after a reboot.
doesnt install on my G2x, not even through root explorer. I have weapon G2x 2.8 rom

Did you make sure to download the correct 800x480 version? It should work, if it doesn't, then it's something either you're doing or that you've done to your ROM previously. I simply installed the APK as an app.
Tried all launchers with corners. Especially 800 x 480. would not install as app
Sent from my LG G2x
Anyone know how to remove app shortcuts from the corners if you add more than one? Long press doesn't.
EDIT: I'm a moron. Got it. JBoogie used a version of this launcher on one of his Defy ROMS based on CM. I thought it was pretty slick.

I just flashed over to a new rom, and it is beautiful, but I really like that Nexus S menu with the fading on the top and bottom... and the way it goes up and down and not side to side. Is there any patch for this for the Evo?
Thanks,

I'm also interested in this.

I think what you are referring to is the app drawer, get adw ex in the market... it's simply awesome, or try the free version.
Launcher pro or adw are in my opinion the best two launchers/home replacements. They have a ton of customizations.
Edit: or just look for Gingerbread launcher in the market...
Or flash a gingerbread rom. Evervolv is awesome. Cm-7 is really nice also.

Personally, I would reccomend the CM7 mod. Evervolv gave me a lot of issues and force closes, along with no market access, and I manually had to install apps via downloading the apk file.

There are convincing-looking (and free) Gingerbread launchers in the marketplace. My Galaxy S 4G has looked like the one in the post, but certainly isn't running 2.3, and I suspect that's what we're seeing. Whether it's deceptive or just a poor understanding of what Gingerbread is -- that's another question.
Hey, it's my first post! Woot woot.
I sent him an email via craigs list asking for pics.. see if he sends some back.

The base firmware is 2.2, as I stated it has been modified, I uninstalled the TouchWiz UI and replaced the Froyo launcher with the Gingerbread launcher. I can install a full version of Gingerbread, so the base reads 2.3.

No, true TW 4 for some gestures requires the new hardware that supports multi-touch, and uses the gyrometer for tilt.
It's just TW4 without those features.
Theme
I am making a full GB theme, the problem is that I can't change the fon't colors at the menu because apktool never recompiles framework-res, so I had to keep the same old popup menu. Other than that, it is amazing

I tried it, loved it, til I tried using camera. Neither one of my camera's would work with it. Just black screen then fc. Seems a lot like adw ex. without paying the $3. looks like it has potential. Went back to ADW and camera worked fine.
SPB Shell 3D is still my favorite... but I gotta say that new app drawer with all those snazzy effects is pretty darn impressive... Go Dev Team is amazing.
That strange never had any camera issues at all their could be setting that needs to be change on it.

Yeah as always with me I'm sure it is something stupid. I will have to give it another shot and check it out more. But sure enough something to do with go launcher froze up my camera.I'm using MIUI, could be a factor too.
ps... I think it's actually up to v2.37 in the market
For those of you who like/love the lock screen of Sense 3.0 then this app is for you. Its called Agile Lock and it has tons of options/settings for things such as changing the font of the lock screen, of course being able to have the 4 app shortcuts on the lockscreen just like Sense 3.0, and much more. I spoke to the dev/one of the devs behind this masterpiece (Bo Zhang) and he seems pretty cool and he said if I/we have any ideas to help improve this app then feel free to email him @ [email protected].
This app can be found in the Android Market by typing in "Agile Lock". There is a free version and a paid version, but I definitely recommend buying the paid version.

Why doesn't it work? Try emailing Bo and tell him. I'm pretty sure he'll make it work. He seems very understanding. I emailed him about 2 ideas and he said one of the ideas will be implemented in the next release and the other will be in the one after that. I just finish emailing him. He's awake!
Edit: I just caught on to what you said. Sounds like its an issue with CM7. Maybe you can contact one of the devs and ask them how to make it work. They should be more than willing to make it work since CM is about personalization.

Did you restore specifically for this app or you just like the stock rom? I'm on the stock rom also and I personally don't have any issues with it. I honestly must of had one random reboot in opposed to 5-10 on Froyo.

XDA member Sarni84 mentioned that same issue. I'm on the non rooted Gingerbread OTA so I can't check right now plus I'm at work, but when I get home I can extract the CM7 file to my computer and search through it. In the meanwhile go to the CM7 posting and see if anyone has found a solution or can find a solution. I usually get home around 5-6pm Eastern.

Is there any way someone can port touchwiz 4.0 from the T-Mobile galaxy s 2 to work with our kj6 roms? (Valahalla, octane v3, etc). I know about touchwiz 4.5 but its very unstable on my phone for some reason and its app sorting in the app drawer does not work. I love how smooth tw4 is compared to others like launcher pro and adw and I just think it looks soo much better. I appreciate it if anyone can help. I'm sure other memebers would like this as well.

The 4.5 comes from the fact that it was a modified version of 4. This launcher automatically comes configured with the stay in ram feature selected- it's been awhile but I am sure that Launcherpro has that feature as well, but it is by default off. Try disabling that and see if it just fc's the launcher (thus resulting in a restart of the launcher) as opposed to your phone crashing. Thats really the only thing that would separate it from other launchers. You can turn the 3d effects off as well to help with the ram. I always make sure to kill passive processes- then again I do not use octane so I am not sure how it runs.
I never had problems with the app drawer. You can change the sorting preferences in the preferences menu of the launcher. It is by default on unrestricted, but you can change it to alphabetical.

I tried turning that off, launcher won't even open anymore so I had to reinstall it. Tried running it for a day but it just doesn't work on my phone which is currently running valahlla final. I have the app drawer set to alphabetical but it still doesn't sort properly. If I install a lot of new apps or delete a lot of apps, there are lots of blank spaces and the only way to get rid of the spaces is to manually move each app one by one which is really a big pain. I just want stock touchwiz 4. I hope someone can get it to work on this phone. After playing with my brother's galaxy s 2, none of the launchers on the market feel anywhere close to that smooth.

Yeah go launcher is pretty good. Still isn't as fast as launcher pro though. I really wish we had a stock touchwiz 4 launcher for this phone. Tw4.5 freezes too much and no other launcher out there really comes close to how fluid tw4 is. I've tried like every launcher in the market too.
