LauncherPro problem...

Whenever I try to change one of the dock icons it only changes the one on the far left. is there anyway to fix this?

How are you trying to change them?
Press and hold the icon/location in the dock that your want to replace. It'll pop up the selection for what you want.
I've changed mine from the defaults to what I wanted and then with the latest update back to the same apps I docked but using the default "ghosted" icons that come with the app.

That's what I'm doing, but it doesn't matter which icon i press it only changes the first one.

Weird...
Have you tried uninstalling and re-downloading and installing?

Just tried this myself (didn't know you could even change the icons before) and it does the same thing for me. I tried to change the Messaging icon to GMail, and it changed the Phone icon on the left instead. Confirmed as far as I'm concerned.

mine change, no problem. droid incredible.

are you running CM?

Just set up LauncherPro myself yesterday and all icons are changing fine for me. G1 running SuperE 1.0.2 at the moment...
And the person with the Incredible can't be running CM because as far as I know, the Incredible is still unrooted.

That was my point.... You're not running CM either. It's not a problem with LauncherPro. It's a problem with LauncherPro and CM. Anyone not running CM will work fine. Anyone running any CM5.0.7+ will have problems. THis is the point I'm trying to make.

[Q] Is anyone else having issues with Launcher Pro?

I downloaded Launcher Pro to test it out today, and I simply cannot do anything. I can make a custom dock and set widgets, and that's about it. I change the number of screens, it restarts and instead of doing what I put it reverts to almost default. Oh, and custom icons are working as well. I'm on an Infuse of course, Froyo 2.2 up to the latest update Samsung released, and I'm on a stock rom (rooted.) If anyone could help it'd be greatly appreciated, because it's very frustrating to pay almost $4 only to have something not work.

I've used it without any issue on rooted stock 2.2 and currently on CM7 without issue. Have you tried uninstalling the program from the application menu and download the .apk again from the Market? You might want to reboot the phone and clear the cache as well before reinstalling.

For some reason it just won't work :/ I emailed the Launcher Pro team in hopes of getting a refund. Wish me luck.

For some reason lately it's been just crashing as soon as my phone turns on so I have to restart a few times to even use my phone... And it hasn't even updated! I don't get it.

Upgraded to ICS, now wat?

was on gingerbread. waited and waited for the OTA updated. ended up rooting. ice cream sandwich update came out and couldn't get it OTA. used Kies and installed the update. finally, now have ICS. lost root access. so anyone out there with the official ics? recommend what to do now!

I'd flash a ROM. I recommend CM10 to have Jelly Bean! There are a lot of ROMS in the dev section. Go choose one. Make sure you flash a recovery!

I'll second the recommendation to go to a JB based rom.

any convincing wins for the JB release? as i am pretty content with what i have on ICS. everything has been smooth so far, nothing buggy at all.
improvements todo: root, remove bloatware, get wifi tethering to work (currently broadcasts signal but devices cannot connect - says connection is unsuccessful)
here are my screenshots (if i should get something else):
1. Lock screen - I noticed the text notification that appears turned black in ics, which i like. it just blends in with my lock screen wallpaper. going for the simple dark black wallpaper for longer battery life? i guess haha
farm9.staticflickr.com/8250/8453732470_8826585926.jpg
2. Screen 1 - man that weather widget that comes with Eye in the Sky is the best weather app! plain simple
farm9.staticflickr.com/8251/8453732494_45cd46759f.jpg
3. Screen 2 - My home screen with a black google search bar that came with ics, yay! also using Widgetsoid with those widgets that i happen to use quite often.
farm9.staticflickr.com/8381/8453732504_333f2afecf.jpg
4. Screen 3 - Well more Widgetsoid action going here. This is my utilities section. I just decided to turn my regular icons into the widgetsoid theme. The weather is actually USB tethering now here. I am enjoying the sound recorder and flashlight of easy access.
farm9.staticflickr.com/8385/8453732484_e8fef3b090.jpg
so yep, recommend widgetsoid and eye in the sky. AND I AM A NOOB ON XDA CAN'T POST LINKS OR PICS

Swype is a little slow in messaging for some reason. A weird icon appears every time at the top of notifications indicating 'Swype in use' so that may be making swype a bit more laggy. ANYONE EXPERIENCE THIS? this new icon appears in ics and not gingerbread. what about JB?

There is the Tweaked ICS rom also if you do like ICS. It's already debloated and optimized. The Swpye icon can be diasbled in the swype options.
Also you can disable most the bloatware now that you are on the stock ICS. Go to settings > apps > select "all" and disable what you want (if it can be).
As for JB, they are all pretty good (bug free). I'm currently using Slim Bean 3.1 with the inverted packages, but you really can't go wrong with any of them. Try them and find out. But you still have to flash CWM and make a backup with it first thing.
GL and enjoy.

Some may need to have the updates uninstalled first, it's in the same location.

it seems like i was able to do a lot of stuff already without rooting. thanks to the disable app feature in ICS, it is pretty much like titanium backup. ended up bypassing the built-in hotspot check and can tether wifi.
well, i ended up rooting. so what am i to use root features on?
guess i can only think of AdFree. also, i can permanently remove disabled apps. anything else to take advantage of root access?

If you go to a Jellybean based rom, most of them have button light notifications. "What is that?", you may ask...
The blaze doesn't have an LED to visually notify you if a call came or a message came...sure, the screen can activate when the call is coming, but if you're in the other room and don't hear it, or if the phone is on silent and you don't see it, you'll never know about it until you actually check your phone by turning on the screen...
Which many people do INCESSANTLY.
Button light notifications can enable the back/home/voice/settings LED to light up so you can be notified of it. It's nice to have.
Also, Google Now works by default with JellyBean, no funny business required. I had Google Now on rooted ICS and I liked it, but the only one that works on ICS for our phone is of course a much older version of Now, and it doesn't support certain features.
Google now is great, check it out on youtube or something.

This might get asked a lot but how is the battery life on JB??
For ICS, I'm currently charging about once every 1.5 days. I usually charge it at night, sometimes I can skip one night and charge it the night after. Sometimes I do use the phone a lot during the day and need to charge it within the next night, maybe even within half a day, but rarely. Sometimes I just charge it at work, so ~1.5 days. To get the 2 days worth, I'm usually Airplane mode-ing it when I'm definitely not going to be looking at my phone, such as at work except for breaks - I can probably go 2.5 days like this, but I still charge at 2.
How does JB compare?

This is from cm10

[Q] Similar problems with all JB ROMS. is it a hardware issue?

Pretty much every time I flash a JB ROM my infuse is fine for a few days. Sometimes even a week. Perhaps a bit laggy, but I guess that's expected given the outdated hardware.
Then eventually I start getting having these two issues
1) random shut offs - in this case the phone sometimes will not boot unless I pull the battery and put it back in.
2) or an error that reads something like "unfortunately System UI has stopped"
I can press "okay" and then get the error again over and over. I can only get out of it by pulling the battery, or holding the power button down.
I did go back to GB for a while and did not have any of these problems.
All my apps are installed from the play store, not restored from a backup. I do not overclock or undervolt.
I'd simply blame hardware, except I don't seem to have problems with GB.

This has always happened to me as well. I would say that its due to incompatibility with JB. Wasn't so bad on ICS but I found that on JB I would be reflashing after only about 2 weeks because it got so bad.

Try Paranoid Android 4.1.2 pa_infuse4g-2.53-04NOV2012-152548 . I have been using that with no issues except the Video camera being crap (photos just fine though), and you have to toggle wifi on and off to get it working. 4.2.2 roms don't work that well on really any phone I have tried even the Gnex I own had issues. I upgraded from AEON straight to Paranoid Android using their upgrade steps listed on their page. No problems no errors didn't even loose my IMEI.
I have tried the newest 4.2.2 roms from liquid, Cyan, and paranoid android. 4.2.2 roms acted badly for me in general I can't remember if I ever got that exact error. I Keep on wiping and going back to my 4.1.2 PA nandroid backup. I kinda think it might be a general 4.2.2 issue dunno.
Also saw this on the latest Beanstalk out 4-10 (so I think you should stick to 4.1.2 roms which of course don't get updated anymore)
Trouble Alerts/Workarounds:
Status bar/Notification Drawer - There seems to be a bug with the 4.2.2 status bar/notification drawer freezing. It is happening on numerous phones at random and there is not a fix available yet. Workaround - Numerous ways to workaround this issue, but easiest in my opinion is to go to settings - system settings - PIE - Enable/Disable PIE. This restarts systemUI and unfreezes the status bar.

Does anyone know what sh means? Android os is destroying my battery life.

I hope you have now the latest JB ROMS update, and every thing is working fine.

tweaked 3.2 question problems . . . can't make calls

I was running tweaked 3.0 on FP5 and was experiencing lots of lag. I decided to upgrade to 3.2 to see if anything happens.
To do this:
1. Used ODEN to install tweaked 3.2. (I did not clear cache)
2. Reinstalled Samsung keyboard and visual voicemail.
3. Switched theme to black and blue
The phone kicked it's lag problem. I could click the applications button and don't have to watch the spinning circle (loading) for 30 seconds before getting to the apps. When I tried to make a call, the application phone (process com.sec.android.app.dialertab) stops unexpectedly. All I can do is force close.
I decided to install stock to try and get the phone to work and soft bricked it. I odened EP4 stock and got back to working phone. Woo Hoo.
I started reinstalling apps and now the phone won't work. I't crashes on open... what can I do? not install tweaked 3.2?

--

So does the phone crash when on stock or no? Can you get a logcat of the FC? Might show why it's all angry and what not. If you can shoot it my way

Having a better night

The phone does not crash on stock ROM and I figured out what to do to keep it from crashing, I think... besides, I have no idea how to get a logcat. someone tried to explaine it once, but my brain melted and I never was able to figure it out.
Fix:
I went back to EP4 ROM via ODEN. I then took 2 OTA updates to get to FP5.
I then used ODEN to add CWM and tweaked 3.2
Last night when I added the software I also added Visual Voice mail and the Samsung keyboard. Unfortunatly, the keyboard I founf on my PC would not install so I download it again. Somehow the one I downloaded was not the one that was supposed to be on the phone and I think that was what was killing it. The new keyboard had multiple languages including Russian. For now I have not loaded Samsung keyboard.
I also want to load Visual Voicemail and the stock screen capture. I am afraid of killing the ability to make calls and view contacts. where can i get the samsung keyboard, visual voicemail app and stock screen capture app for FP5?
On a side note, despite the phone working good and showing no sines of lag, the Youtube app crashes every so often. I'll probably uninstall it.
Another thing of note that might just be a theme issue or might be by design: I'm on black and blue theme and the 4 home buttons, phone, contacts, messaging, and apps are not evenly spaced right and left. they seem a bit squished together.
Almost forgot...I can't get haptic feedback to work. It works in Stock ROM and worked yesterday in tweaked 3.0 before I monkey'd with the phone.

Well at least there was an improvement
Not sure why haptic would stop... and the launcher thing is odd - screenshot?
You should be able to pull the needed apks for VVM and keyboard from the zip full of apks in the Tweaked 3.2 OP - or you could use tweaktools. Sorry for all the troubles!

Is there a way to disable/eable haptic in the ROM that I failed to notice? I did see the toggle in the android settings.

Haptic feedback
I managed to find a setting for haptic feedback in the TMS Parts > General which does not seem to do much of anything.
I did find tactile feedback for the lock screen. Now I can unlock the phone without looking. I also have tactile feedback on the keyboard. I'm missing it on the home screens.
Maybe this is a desired function of the ROM?

Hmm...
Yeah the haptic bit in tsmparts doesn't seem to do much - it did at one point (likely the Froyo days) but I forget about it and leave it in there it seems lol - have you tried going into sound settings? I think there is a haptic or vibrate type option in there that you can turn on/off, though I'm not 100% on that one.
