We have just finished the first release of Go Launcher.
Uploaded onto Google Market. It seems most of users like it.
We are very glad to hear your opinion. Please help us to make it better. Thanks.
Go Launcher is an amazing home replacement app for Android .
-Extremely smooth scrolling
-Convenient icon pop-menu
-Gesture supported
-Useful app drawer to uninstall apps and kill tasks
-Removable screen previews (Up to 30 screens)
Guys~ Let me explain something most of users may concern about:
1. Q: GO Launcher(GL) restart (redraw) sometimes after quitting from other app?
A: It's android's feature that system automatically kill some processes whenever available memory is low. When you see redraw/restart, it means GL has been removed from memory due to the app you just run which might be consuming too much resource (such as games...).. That's the same reason that GL becomes little bit laggy when system's used memory reachs about 250M. In the next two release, we will consider provide a 'keep-in-memory' option to user (like LP already did). That way, android won't kill GL even in case of low memory and you will get better feel of 'speed'.
2. What are the new features of next release? (tomorrow...)
Q:
A. Support scrollable widget and widget resizing!
B. Icons won't be missing and stay the same spot after upgrading.
C. Much faster switching between tabs in function chart.
D. Fix some crash issues for Droid phones
E. Support folder in app drawer.
F. (available two releases later) Theme save and restore.
Also, recommend 'GO SMS' and 'GO Weather' developed by other folks in Dev team. .New Arrivals.
If you like Go Launcher, recommend it to your friends .
We will keep working and make the best launcher for you !
Please check updates from Google Market.
Any feedback please email to [email protected] in case I might be missing questions here in forum. Thanks!

Glad you like it. Choosing dock icon (even app icon) from gallery will be in next release. Actually, it will not be just use gallery pic. It's beyond that. :--)
Great work! Looks very promising. Thank you so much.
Can you add the option to turn off vibrations when adding icons, removing home screens etc.

Waaaaay MIUI... Liking it though

I like you app drawer (or function chart as you call it). But it would be nice if there is a possibility to have less apps on one site (for example only 6 on second page). This isn't possible now, because when you move an app to another page one from the next page comes to the page you moved an app away.
Is there any way to make scrollable widgets work ?
Screen Shot?
Yeah i like this launcher, MIUI Style I love it.
Ok, i'm a big fan of LauncherPro, but I must say that GO Launcher really has a lot of potential. IT IS AWESOME and very refreshing.
Anyway, I think it would be even more awesome with some adjustment
some of the settings are quite... confusing i think. I expected "turn on screen rotation" to turn the screen orientation but instead it is actually the drawer's mode... which is weird.
also, I can has bigger homescreen icon? :< or something like same size icons of MIUI roms.
Resizing widgets would make this launcher awesome.

BTW i think it still need polishing... FC on me.
but as I said, i would love to see this launcher improving.
Missing animation between homescreen and preview.
Got a FC when i start Go Launcher from the drawer.
Drag and Drop to Dock, native folder support and multilanguage would be nice
Very promising launcher! Keep it up devs!
Just my 2 cents, would it be good if the function chart (or app drawer) can be made into a loop (similar like the dock)? So after the last page we'll return to the first one (without having to flip back several times).
Another minor issue on my HTC Legend (mdpi) the font size on "Add to desktop" looks way too big imho. Maybe you can consider to polish the text as well (e.g. Shortcut instead of ShortCut, Homescreen settings (I think more appropriate as compared to setting)).
Just my 2 cents
Looks real cool. The only thing that keeps me with launcherpro is widget resizing.
Another essential thing that I miss is an option to use images as custom icons for docked apps.
Also I'd highly recommend speeding up the "function chart" scrolling speed.
One more thing that comes to my mind is that item from a homescreen is deleted only when dragged over trash icon. Would be way more convenient if the action was performed when dragged over dock (not only trash icon). That's "cosmetics" tho ;]
Apart from that, incredible work. Love the MIUI style.
Keep up the good work!
Can someone post some screenshots?

I agree with everyone... VERY promising... i would love to see folder support in the app drawer as well as hiding apps (or hiding folder) I'll keep my eye on it for sure.. cant quite take over launcher pro plus yet

keeps getting better, thanks!
One thing I mentioned in email I wanted to bring up here for others feedback is that if I choose to not have the screen indicator at the top of the screen, and I hide the status bar, the few pixels reserved for the screen identifier should be given back/not used anymore.
I wont keep repeating how great work you guys deliver
1 point of improvement:
On my X10 it's impossible to resize the widgets...
Sorry, it works, this plonker forgot to enable it in settings
Cheers,
Arnold
I really like this launcher guys,great stuff. ill be honest, im still sticking with launcherpro FOR NOW, but im closely watching this app because its got great potential.
just a little suggestion: adding option to configure the press-icon highlight color...a lot of people are anal about their phone's appearance and the current yellow color can really counter-act with some peoples theme
just one mans opinion......keep up the great work!
I love your apps and this launcher is awsome.
Now i need a loooot of custom icons <----- any idea?
Add alphabet sorting in the app drawer folders
I really really like your apps
Actually I'm using all of them
Keep it up
BTW u got the best GUIs I've ever seen on an android apps

Finally someone has done it!
Congratulation on this excellent home replacement. You are the first and only person to create in my opinion a better Home replacement than the default Galaxy S one. Doesn't need much improvement, maybe spring load the first and last app draw screens.
Very nice, and my thanks.
Add ability to choose custom docks and more homescreen rows x columns and im switching from lp.

Nice launcher, really smooth. I've set the app drawer scrolling to portrait and I would really like the possibility to swype between all, recent and running apps.
Just a suggestion i'm already really appreciating your work!
Nice launcher and getting better constantly. However, I have had a problem of misplaced text label for the drawer taps for all the versions so far (see attached image). I have lcddensity=220 on Froyo, and have not tried on the standard 240.
It's a bit laggy for me at the moment and all widgets are gone after every reboot...
Too bad, because I love this launcher.

The drawer's animation ruins all it's smoothness. Can you create an option to switch the drawers animation off ? Or change it with something smoother.
I really like this launcher, it's pretty clever.
I must say I do love this launcher, however after running it a couple of days it's showing up as a large battery consumer on my Droid Pro. (And unfortunanlty I can't afford to lose anymore battery on this device). LauncherPro normally runs 3-5% of my battery, and your launcher is pulling 10-12%.
Again, I'm a big fan, and definitely think this has potential, but until you guys can shave off some battery usage, I'm going to have to go back to LPro.

I am in doubt going back to lpp too for the same reason. After setting go launcher as my defàult launcher, i lose around 8 till 10% an hour, which is way too much...

I'm having problems with my widgets not visually updating correctly on Galaxy Spica 2.2 (CM 6.1.1 alpha 8.2)
You can see an example here (look at the date of the calendar widget)
I have this on all my widgets, including the power widget
hi
just updated from modaco rom and it is already a hundred times better. just have a few questions.
I use to have a lot more wigets or choices in the widgets. The main two i notice is the main clock widget which when tapped takes u to an app where u can view world clocks, weather and an alarm clock.
Also the calander had a lot more choices in size and shape.
Does any one know how i can get them back? Does it have something to do with the sense/rose thing. I had a choice and chose the Launcher and dont know how to change it back.
I believe i had more screens to chose from. i have 5 now but use to have 7.
cheers.
When clicking on the clock widget it opens to the world clock by default.
Is there a way to change this action so it will open to another option, say the alarm or the timer...?
nope theres no other way
Yea the timer or alarm would be more frequently used for me than the world clock.
For me I'm not a jet setter!
I found a work-around solution, but I'm pretty sure this will only work if you are rooted. I'm currently using an HTC Sensation 4G, running the Elegancia ROM. I use Root Explorer and SQLite Editor (both available in the Android store. They are not free, but well worth the price!)
Here's what I did:
Open data/data/com.htc.android.worldclock/databases
Open the carousel.db
Open the tasks table
Edit the is_removable field, changing the 0 to 1 for the World Clock and the Desk Clock
I then went into the Clock application, removed the World Clock and Desk Clock tabs, moved the alarm to the first slot, and when I re-opened, the alarm popped up first. I didn't try just reordering the various clocks with the World Clock and Desk Clock remaining in the tabs.
Hope this helps somebody!

Great clock, but after latest update doesn't work correctly.
When I set an alarm I can see the icon in the notification area and the next alarm time in the app and on the widget, but if I turn screen off and unlock the device there is no next alarm time on the widget or in the app, also the icon in the notification area is gone. I can only see the alarm if I go to the app and select alarms.
I tried setting an alarm using another alarm app and that worked. It showed next alarm on the widget and in the app (clock JB+), also the icon in the notification area.
The widget also stopped updating the time a few times..
I love the look of the app and bought the +-version after 5 minutes of testing the free one, but can't use it before these bugs are fixed. Please fix them ASAP.
Samsung Galaxy S III with JB 4.1.1
Edit: Nevermind, found the culprit. Green Power's wifi management was somehow messing with the clock...
nice clock
thanks awesome!
i was searching 4.2 clock for gb :good:
JB+ Alarm settings don't stick on Sprint SGS3. Alarm keeps kicking off with both the notification icon and the clock widget indicator disappearing. However in settings panel it still shows the alarm as active, and toggling on/off /on brings back the proper display - untill something else takes focus. Disabling the JB+ alarm and then setting a stock "Touchwiz" alarm is a work around for now.
All things considered I still love this clock, and hope this gets resolved in a future release.
Edit: NVM - I cleared cache and dalvic cache, fixed permissions, and then froze all touchwiz clocks. After a reboot now this clock's alarm appears to work perfectly. Color me a completely happy camper.

Hi there !
I encounter the same issue where the alarm icon disapears from the notification/status bar and alarm indication disappears from the widget clock on my non-rooted stock Orange Galaxy Note 2.
It seems Mutepoint has found a way to reestablish proper functionning however I wonder how I can clear the cache, clear the dalvic cache and fix the permissions.
Could you help please ?
Thank you very much !
Do you think it would be possible to mod Clock JB+ to add math solving to turn off/snooze? That would be awesome.
My phone is rooted so I used Titanium Backup to "freeze" all the TouchWiz clocks. I clear cache, dalvic cache, and fix permissions using TWRP custom recovery. Bye the way the clock has been working flawlessly since I did these things last week... not a single alarm failure or glitch at all.

@Mobileillusion, Like the newer DeskClock on JB, is it possible to give an option to:
a) shake/snooze to dismiss an alarm
b) hide the alarm icon.
Thanks for this app
Good job, works very well, thanks
Thanks @Mobileillusion for making a great app! But I have a problem, I have CyanogenMod 7.2 on Galaxy Mini S5570L, and installed the application, but when I want to put the widget on my desktop, I can not see the Clock JB widget in the list of widgets ... What I can do?Thanks!

Have you installed the app on the SD card? I think by default app is installed on phone but I don't know if CyanogenMod 7.2 has some tweak to change this. Thank you for asking!

Yeah, That was it. I configured the parameter pmInstallLocation to install all applications on the external card, so I installed it on the internal memory and then the widget appeared, thank you!
Request for next update, if possible:
- Allow custom color option for the widget texts (let the user choose the color that he wants from the color picker)
- Allow custom opacity/transparency option for the widget texts(let the user make his text more transparent or opaque)
- Add text shadow options for the widget texts (if the user has white text and bright background this will be very helpful)
I really want to make my widget black and a bit transparent. If you cannot do this then it's ok and thanks anyway.
