Anyone not familiar with it should check it out. Lots of new free themes that look pretty cool and spice up ya lock screen
From the Beast : Galaxy Note
I use Go Launcher, so I got Go Locker and it was real laggy to me . .I like the fact that it was fairly customizable but with the lag it was quicker just to use the regular swipe to unlock screen and then open an app. .
There are some cool themes and if it wasnt laggy it would be great. .
Go locker is a fake unlocker, you can bypass it with home button, at least it was a few months when I tried Go locker, maybe they fixed it now.
The best lockscreen is imo JKay AOSP Deluxe.
I didn't like the lag of go locker either. Waiting patiently for 4.0 as I really liked the stock lock screen on my galaxy nexus.

1. Go Locker isn't laggy!
2. For a month now, you can set it to not be bypassed by home button. Works on Galaxy S II and Note of course!
Hmm no lag for me either. I'm digging the Spiderman theme

Gotta agree with the lag issue. It does have a lot of nice themes, but the lagginess pushed me away and back to the stock lockscreen.
I wonder why some people experience lag and some don't. Wierd. It is completely lag free for me

Yes,but you have to set Go Locker as your home launcher to bypass the Home button.....
It's not a big issue for me,Go Locker doesn't lag as far as I'm concerned,
I use Metro UI locker works just hunky dory.
I found go locker and even go launcher to have a kind of 'bloaty' feel to them. I think a lot of the skinning and theming options are tacky and intrusive, ruining a streamlined OS feel.
I've settled on zeam launcher and stock lockscreen.
Can you run go locker lock screen apps with pin set? I'd like to make calls and take pictures from from a lock screen with a pin. The iPhone can do this.

I'm not sure this install includes the apps, like Allshare. After reading and then searching,i didn't see any references to it. It looks like its just the shell. Can anyone confirm? I would hate to add any more bloatware if I don't have to. I only want Allshare.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Correct its basically just the launcher shell
Its the fully working launcher, if your saying it does not have widgets your correct but no launcher comes with widgets. I know the guy its working on getting the widgets working as well.
I like rosie and the widgets the best my self, but the launcher works well but way to much like a iphone for me.
I can't install any of these without getting an application not installed warning.
Is there a work around?
confirmed... the launcher works fine on the evo. kinda plain with just the message and app icon on the bottom but the app drawer is nice. time to jazzy up the home screens a bit
Im with u....keeps giving me the same errors. do the phone have to be rooted or something

Any way to add more than just the message and app icon?
yea i really need a link to phone if im going to use it at all. exited for the widgets though.
note for anyone switching between this and other launchers, make sure you close this one when switching back if you dont reboot your phone, it will drain resources and battery.
Yeah its easy to add more icons to the bottom as seen in these pics, just while app draw is open hit menu/edit and drag the icons down and also you can re-order the apps as well.

I just bought the captivate yesterday, What tweaks should I do and is it a must to root the phone to sideload apps? and what apps and widgets should I download, I remember some from my nexus one but Im hoping some of you can help me with great apps and games
First of all, CONGRATS on buying this sexy phone !
Ok I'd recommend you first check out the "Pimp my Captivate" thread that's stickied at the top, and download the pdf.
When you reach the step where you have to root your phone, don't.
Instead flash the Unleash the Beast rom/update
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=751182
Then continue on with the guide as normal, with the exception that you don't have to root anymore, remove the att apps, or use a side load script since there's instruction how to enable it after flashing the Unleash the Beast.
i'm not much of a gamer but depending on how old you are, you might remember labyrinth. that is a pretty fun game to me. the samsung user interface (Touchwiz 3.0) to me was pretty neat, but Launcherpro is much much better. its much more customizable, and the fact that you can have 7 screens + 3 dockbars makes it near impossible for you to run out of room for shortcuts. some people will say that you will need to have an all black background to preserve your battery life, i disagree with it, as i am running live backgrounds like Galaxy without a problem. If youre willing to pay for any apps the first one that i recommend is Beautiful Widgets as it has tons and tons of skins for the weather and clock widget on your home screen.
I rooted mine as it was a simple process, and tried a couple of the lag fixes. if you are happy with the speed of your phone, then dont mess with any of those fixes imo.
I recommend setting up Pandora if you havent already, as well as iheartradio. and ive been using ringdroid to clip songs into ringtones as well.
my captivate lags sometimes, not as smooth as the nexus, will the lag fix help? for example when i put that live wallpaper with the leaves and the water that was also on the nexus, it lags alot when moving from one homescreen page to the next.Also I saw a really great wallpaper from the original galaxy with the water rippling, is there any way to get it on the captivate and also the avatar movie from the vibrant
also is there any way to stop the phone from vibrating with the swype and samsung keyboard?
I also Agree, beautiful widgets has a weather animation, and many skins.
I paired up the Droid Does skin, with the Droid X Live wallpaper
Here's a pic

what launcher are u using with the droid x theme, adw or launcherpro, btw which one is better. I still havnt tryed adw, I had launcher pro on my n1
Launcherpro is where it's at, when you download it customize it and find the option to enable 3d app drawer- it's great!
You can find the Droid X Live Wallpaper here (many different colors)
forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6952878&postcount=13
But for the DROID does clock/weather widget, you need to download or "find" beautiful widgets.
Like I said before though, flash the unleash the beast rom, it's makes the Captivate way faster, and your life easier.
So did anyone ever tell you how to get the avatar movie from the vibrant to work on the captivate? I have the file saved on my phone but can't get it to play.

The swype options are in settings/locale and text/swype ... Or you can hit the swype key on bottom left of the keyboard.

i can hide the apps that i do not like (like moxier,and other)
so far i like it.
Lock screen is really nice. Thanks for the INfo (OP)

Thanks for sharing, it is nice and I have just downloaded. Enjoy, guys!
I like it
Wonder what damage it will do to the battery though!
So they caused the delay for 2.1 release. Probably they put hours in making this one and thought that it will all be wasted/
Now we all testing the battery.
the japanese has always something special and they keep proving this for us

There's a download link on the same page, just scroll down a bit and look closely
Besides the animated wallpaper I don't see any other reason to choose this over ADW. Does anyone know if it's possible to use the wallpaper without having to run this launcher? In other words, can I use the live wallpaper with ADW?
Really really nice.
I thought live wallpaper is only supported by 2.1 and not by 1.6 ?
Anyway the "one and only" big reason why I´m waiting for 2.1 is the change of stupid lock screen on 1.6. Doesn´t work sufficient enough for me. I tried some lock-apps too, but no app was "much better" than the original one. On every call I have to hope I can unlock the screen. But this one in this pack works perfekt. Thanks for sharing.
Only good point is live screen..ADW is far better..

well it's available only for japan... better late than never i think the apk is modded...

can somebody mod this to get only the lockscreen?

Yup, I got that too.
When I'm receiving a call it reverts back to the old lock screen, and when I'm done with the call I'll have to first unlock the default screen, and after that the AmbientTime one. Is there any way to force the AmbientTime lock screen to be used when receiving calls? If not, I guess I'll have to stick with ADW.
In the first post the wallpaper is very colorful but mine is simple! why?

The files are all put together in this thread, much easier.. The others were just discussionand you had to extract them yourself from the system dump..
Why do people who aren't mods try to act like mods...

Good launcher, but for me it isn't enough to replace Launcher Pro/Go Launcher, mostly 'cause the lack of options and customizing...
DX HomeVery good launcher from Chinese developers!
He has many themes, lock screens etc.

The 360 launcher lags on your x10 device but does not lags on my x10 mini pro

And 360 doesn't have scrollable widgets.
if u could you might want to try and fix the brightness, if u change it using the built on widget or one built into your slide down status bar that only changes the launcher thing.
its nbd but only real flaw i see
this launcher is a keeper
Possibly one of the best launchers but i dont like the icons.
Using themes icons are small. and why it says APPS in appdrawer
Came across this a while ago. I like most of the features, but the app launch transition irritates me - despite having the ability to customise page transitions and app drawer transitions, there's no launch transition option, so it's not quite my cup of tea yet.
It's the launcher from a very nice rom. DX OS. Available for quite a few phones. Also have other apps on market from the rom. Search for Tapas Mobile.

Used DxHome for a few hours , 2 things i don't like about it , can't remove search widget from 1st screen & the home-screen transitions not very smooth (a bit laggy) on my SGS II i9100G !!
I appreciate the overall appearance of the home-screen & i also loved it's default icons !!
I used to have 3.0.4 and 3.0.9 versions on my samsung galaxy s i9000.
However 3.0.9 was the last version that ever worked well for me. Since this version all I get is very slow app drawer
