what launcher are you using?

I'm using go launcher ex -I love the way the app drawer is organized, but recently after some update is started freezing from time to time...so I'm looking for a new one.
what do you recommend?

There is a thread similar to this in the themes section with some valuable input.

tried searching for it and didn't find anything relevant - can you please post a link?

You sure you're on the latest update?
I use go launcher also, and have no problems.
I even uninstalled tw, and go launcher is my only launcher.
If you have titanium backup pro, try freezing tw, and see if that stops the issues you're having.

I'd be especially careful when freezing TW. Make sure that you NEVER delete your launcher, because if you do even accidentally, you're screwed.

I did that once. Whole damn screen stayed black. I was trying out several launchers and was using sbp shell and did not like it. I messed around not paying attention and deleted it before switching default launchers. For like a half hour I just kept hitting buttons and through the grace of god got the little use this by default pop up for my launchers. I must say the whole experience sucked.

That sucks. I usually delete tw and what ever launcher comes with my custom roms because I love zeam launcher. I never encountered a tw related problem though

Same here, tw gets uninstalled as soon as I make sure go launcher is working properly.
I just freeze it for a couple days, and if nothing happens, I just smack that uninstall button!

[Q] My Buddies

I was curious if there was any way we can get the my buddies widget to work with GTG's rom. I liked it when I had it and I do enjoy removing the bloat but some of the widgets I actually used hehe. Anyone have any idea how we could get this working?
Side note, my task manager widget does not work and was wondering if anyone had a fix/zip so I can use. I am running Infused 2.0.2 w infusion kernel and the touchwiz30.apk.

All mine work?

yea that's what I plan. I tried the tw 4.5 and needless to say it was freezing way too much for me. Like at least 10 times a day too much lol. Now I presume my widgets are all botched. fml.

Have you dropped the scaling down. And shut off the higher oc values? Typically that kind of thing is result of pushing the phone too high.

I agree with eollie, only time I've seen what you described is when I tried overclocking to 2ghz!

i used tegrak OC back when it didn't have the run for a minute and see whether stable option. And I had set on boot, OC to 1.65 just to see what happened. It turned on and then blurry freeze. Had to clear cache, and dalvik. Surprisingly, it worked.

[Q] multitouch problems?

I'm running seans SKYICS 12.5
I used to use alot of emulators, such as gameboid. And I never had a problem playing games like super marios world. But now I can't seem to hold in A to run, and the D pad to move at the same time so I can actually run. Any suggestions on how to fix this? With using the emulator and noticing that problem, I'm now seeing it elsewhere, like when I type on the keyboard. I recently switched to swiftkey over swype and I thought it was just the new keyboard wasn't as quick as swype.. So I switched back to swype for a minute and it seems to be a multi touch problem..

I would try going to the latest update, I'm running the 13ish update with no multi touch problems.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Its a non wipe update just clear cache, install zip and reboot let cache build up and fix permissions.
Here's the thread with exact instructions and download link.

Are you sure? I read the change log and it says he's on base 5 now.. I'm on base 4 with update 12.5
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

You can update without base 5 several people have done it and confirmed its working fine, just update as usual. If you want his new base you could always flash, the only downside is if you update base you need to wipe, Happy flashing.

I just updated. Problem persists. I guess I should rephrase. Multitouch works, but not very well. Like I have a delay before what I'm second pressing will kick in. It might as well not work. Idk. I never had this problem on GB. Might be a ICS thing since seans roms are basically perfect.

I can't find any settings to mess with the touch input. Probably has something to do with sensitivity and such.

MIUI Screen Setups

So thanks to StrumerJohn and Bleelas we now have a close to stable working version of MIUI! HUGE thanks to those two guys!
MIUI - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028368
I'm starting this topic because I use to run MIUI every once in a while on my original Droid and I have one non-functional issue with it; app icons being all over since there is no app drawer!
So, I ask anyone and everyone to post screenies of their MIUI screens so myself and others can get some ideas on how to customize homescreens on this awesome version of MIUI on the GS3.
THANKS!

Here is mine in no particular order order

When I ran it on my dx and incredible, I would make folders or use ftl launcher. You could still use all the miui icons with that launcher and still have an app drawer.
I loved that rom, gotta flash this once soon.

I'll post a screen shot when i switch to MIUI once it's deemed stable. I ran it for over a year on my dx and the way I had it was my 4 main icons on home and my left screen was 16 most used apps with four folders of other stuff at the bottom. MIUI is an awesome rom, and i am definitely watching the build thread. You could also just install apex launcher from MIUI if you wanted to....

On the last page of the thread someone mentions a random reboot. I am sure they are close to finishing, I am just waiting on that "final" build.
I am anxious to see where this thread goes, because I love getting ideas from others.
