[Q] Launcher, Music, and Best Music Mod - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I have four(4) questions for all of you!
1. Which is the single most innovative launcher that works on our SG3? I'm talking innovative. Like SSLauncher, Sweeterhome et all. Please don't say Launcher Pro and ADW and stuff
2. Does the newest versions of ADW not let u change icons? Or am i dumb enough to not be able to figure it out. Please help me.
3. When i listen to music, there is always a buzz at the start or end of a song. Like the recording buzz. How can i get rid of that? Any mod or equalizer settings?
4. The best mod Music listeners? I'm currently using Beats by Contradictor

Hey, I'm not actually part of this forum but I used to own an I5800 and played around with it for a while.
1.) Launchers? You said quite a few there already. But maybe search for something called Sliderscreen through Google (its not on Play Store anymore). Or go for Launcher 7/LauncherWP8 (if you're on 2.2+)? Those two are quite unique.
2.) Yep, the new ADW doesn't allow you to change individual icons. You'll have to find a workaround for that. I know there's an app that let's you create shortcuts to apps that allows you to select your own picture but the name escapes my memory :L I'll update my post once I find it.
EDIT: Yup, found the app. Desktop VisualiseR. The link is here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr
3.) I'm not quite sure of the answer. I never had a buzz whenever I listened to music. Proper equaliser presets are only available is 2.3+ I believe (or so I've seen in all those other music apps).
4.) Sorry but I don't know about this one either :/
Hope I helped though (in one way or another)

[Request] [App] [Mod] Car Home

hey everybody,
just got my brand new cardock and played a bit with the 2.2 brand new car home..
It's pretty cool and easy to use but there's something that can make it maybe even better : what about those empty spots on the "second" page? You've got maps, settings, brightness and then 3 empties...
I'm wondering if there's any dev out there willing to mod the app and try to get those empty spots customizable;
What if we could set a direct sms , or direct call, or custom app launch on one of those empty spots? Maybe even better if we could have more than 2 pages...
This is just an idea, but I hoestly don't have the needed tech skilss to make this happen so... anybody willing to contribute/help/make the dream come true?
Everybody's contribution is well appreciated
This is somethine also I want. I want spotify on that second page.
/Söder
Agreed. Would be nice to add apps to those empty spots.

Has anyone dug into the code and see if the carhome has shortcut intents?
Since there's no way to actually modifiy from the UI, I think that's how google may have coded it.
This is a great idea for a mod. I've used the Car Dock V.2 app in the past, but went back to the stock Car Home. I have zero skill in coding, but I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler to create a car home app that retains the look of the Google app, but with some similar functionality to Car Dock V.2 (long press icons to add shortcut, change icon, etc... and add maybe add extra screens). I don't know about the rest of you, but the Exit Car home annoys me too. I much preferred it in 2.1 when you could go into the standard launcher, but the home key would take you back to the car home. Just a couple of thoughts.
I know this is my first post, but I really think the car app is one of those where the stock app, just misses the boat.
So, glad to see some of you feel the same needing of a better car dock app...
I really hoped holiday time could bring a dev/coder to take a look at this thread, but it seems like some more advertising is indeed needed!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Looks like Car Home is proprietary Google software like GMail. I couldn't find any source and/or the ability to use shortcut intents
Prof-KOS is probably right, would be easier just to make a look alike
I think Google did a very disappointing job on with car dock in froyo
For now I have configured one screen of adw launcher with things I need for car mode. Then I have installed dock nothingness to disable the car home. And also car dock settings app to switch on-off Bluetooth etc...
Is it possible to even color the car dock icons, maybe with a morph???
Hey guys, did you try custom car home?
It's doing pretty much what I was looking for so if anybody is interested may give it a try
Let me know your thoughts, It's pretty basic but usefull for me

Google just updated the Android Car Home, now it's a stand alone app and customizable.
Great! Too bad I can't update through the market with CM6, guess because it's a system app..
Could anybody post the app or remind me the adb commands to do the trick?

[EDIT]
I pulled out the apk if anybody should need it...
I had two Car Home 2.2's in Titanium Backup-- one was "CarHomeGoogle.apk" and one was "CarHomeLauncher.apk"
I deleted both of them, and now there's no icon for Car Home-- I have a feeling I shouldn't have deleted CarHomeLauncher, but I forgot I needed to reboot after I removed CarHomeGoogle. D'oh.
Anyone have that launcher apk?

[APP] StriPad, another application launcher

I'm looking for beta-testers now, in order to refine my application and maybe find bugs.
This launcher is described and downloadable on my web site dystroy.org/stripad/
In a few words, it is designed to be efficient and greatly minimize the time needed to find and launch your applications (or to uninstall them).
If you could take the time to visit, test and comment this launcher...
[screenshots not possible for a forum newcomer...]
Hey I had a look at the screenshots, what an Awesome innovative idea! .
I wouldn't want to replace my home screen with it though. Maybe you might want to get into contact with some launchers (Launcher Pro etc) about making it an option to replace the app drawer with your StriPad?
I love this launcher!
I'll test this. This is my new favorite launcher. I've been looking for something like this ever since I went Android. Your launcher is a welcome change.
I love that it's only 63KB, fast, minimalist and low on resources.
I hate having a 1-2MB app just to launch other apps.
I don't use widgets or screens.
I had a FC while holding down a strip to change the color.
I also only see half of the color wheel when changing colors. I have a low resolution phone. 320x240
Checking the Processes I only see
Process CPU Mem.
system_server 129% 0Ko
com.google.process.gapps 129% 0Ko
com.android.phone 129% 0Ko
Took a look at it, not a bad idea, still rather launcher pro.
Good Idea.
But hard to use and could be prettier.
But I am looking forward for updates.
Awesome idea, but I use too many widgets for it to replace my current launcher. I'll be checking back for updates
Awesome work bro!
Thanks for your replies !
@lunigma : can you reproduce the problem and get me the stack-trace ? Do you know how to do it ? What you see on the process list is strange. What device do you have and with what version of Android ?
@TuRDMaN : if enough people are interested I'll continue my work. I'm currently working on an integration of the widgets (the stripes could be all retracted to the left, leaving the background to widgets).

The APP is funny, cool man, great work, i will still looking in this thread for up's.
OK.
I must admit that I'm not any more able to find the time and motivation to work on this project.
So, except if I find people willing to develop it (as open source), I won't finish it and I'll remain the sole user...

Would you consider making this into an "app drawer" replacement? Or maybe 2 versions. Full launcher version and app drawer replacement version. I think it would be an awesome app drawer. But I personally would not want to replace my launcher with this. It is a great idea though. and thanks for sharing.

Please don't drop this! I love the concept and the fact that it's so conservative on resources.
I'm using Stripad as main Launcher and Quickdesk for some widgets.
There are two flaws, though. On my Samsung Spica, it displays sometimes 8, sometimes 9 bars. The processes windows becomes empty after 3 or 4 seconds.
Again, I think this app is too good for you to drop. Please reconsider.

UPDATED 5/17
Hi all.
Let me start off by saying. . . I have no knowledge of porting or modding and was extreemely lucky to get this far. I need some dev help!
Here is my attempt at porting a landscape only 3d launcher for our tab. Works on 2.2-2.3.3.
It is a beta/alpha version.
I say beta/apha because some things dont work yet, but it runs very smooth. So I am calling it that.
This was originaly a launcher for anouther tablet (advent vega tab) and I believe it is called 3d Home Launcher Screen for Vega. It was designed for use with a Tegra processor.
Here is a link to vid of it running natively on its original device.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-4k62ln4j4
Did some tinkering, reading, hacking, slashing and harassing. . . . . lots of cursing
And. . . .
I got it installed and MOSTLY working . A few thing still need work.
Let it settle in. It has its own cache, and needs to build it. Restart the launcher maybe twice over an hour period. Its been running smooth, finding and playing all audio/video files. It created its own audio and video thumbnails.
®Music app DOES currently play music. It is visually stunning.
®Video app DOES play video.
*No google search bar. Thats okay. It was kinda cool tho. It caused FC's. Anything that caused fc's has been taken out of the uploaded version.
*Animated Weather widget shows weather but doesn't show the three days of the week buttons. It's just a black box that now turns to the next city. Maybe font is not installed. I am looking for it.
*It dissables two soft buttons. The search button and menu button. Long pressing the search key still brings up voice search. And pressing menu in apps still works. Pressing search button in an app still works.
Download launchkey and remap the long press search key to open search instead of voice search
*Button on right of task bar does nothing, I took out the Guide. It was for the original Tablet. Maybe it could be modded to open another app?
*Dock bar seems a little visually kooky. Black boxes under each icon where it is supposed to say name of each. Maybe font is not installed. I am looking for it. Also maybe this is because it is for a 10 inch tab screen and ours is 7.
Maybe a few things more but I cannot remember.
Guys, I think I am getting close, but would like some help, please, as I have no idea what I am doing.
®download both zips, unzip both and install all files. Sorry bout two zips. XDA has a size limit. Can anyone help make a CWM Recovery flashable zip? There is alot to install, and I dont want anyone missing an apk.
®works on any dpi.
®there are more widgets but currently they cause the forceclosures
®let it "settle"
®Devs focus on the *'s this is what I need the most help in

I have on my Desire ages ago. Have they actually updated it or does it work fine?
| Don't Revive Me Bro! |
I dont know if they updated it, but it works smooth on my 2.2.3 beta 2 overcome.
Netfront life screen: my only gripes so far is no orientation change. And the annoying need to click on the desired icon, it scolls to "home" then you gotta click again to open it.
And it would be awsome to have the circle centered in landscape on the middle bottom, or middle?
Kinda why i want the 3d launcher ported
I guess running netfront and circle launcher is the best 3d we are gonna get till someone ports the 3d launcher.
I've just been trying Claystone Launcher from the market, its a beta but works ok, no landscape mode, and app draw is slow and laggy, but other features are very good, i follow this and hope it will be nice and fast at some later date.
More info here:http://www.appbrain.com/app/claystone-launcher-%28beta%29/com.claystoneinc
It's from Advent Vega Tablet. i raised the same question some time back but no one seems to be interested.
I dont know why. It looks freakin sweet. I just think the people who, unlike me, can just dont want to. Everyone else waits for other people to do it. I bet if i had it posted available to instal right now, the download counter would be smoking.
Cmon guys, take a look and give some input. If you dont wanna do it teach me how. Id love to learn how to port things like this.
Here is a youtube vid on it running natively on its original tab.

For correcting the link.
I ripped the stock launcher out of a toshiba and its a pretty sweet launcher. Its definetly different that anyrhing we have available now.
If you wanna check it out, i can pm or email it to you as i cant upload.
It works great on any lcd desity, i have it on 182 right now. Using this in conjucture with circle launcher makes my tab visualy awsome and very unique.
I also have the dell stage launcher its a great portrait launcher because unfortunatly its resolution allows you to see part of each screen to the left and right in landscape mode. Still works in landscape mode, tho.
It is also diff than the regular old adw launcher. It has some widgets also.
I am in the process of ripping out every stock launcher i can find and trying to get it to work on the tab.
I am gonna start a new thread soon with all these in one spot that work on the tab. I am not gonna include launchers you can find on the market. Except in passing mention.
Do you think that thread is a good idea?

[Request] original Tochwiz optimizing for 182dpi [Please Vote]

Hello guys!
Would somebody create a port of the original Galaxy Tab TouchWiz that is optimized for use with 182dpi? I think 8x8 rows would be nice.
Why to Hell original TW?
Because I like the original Launcher very much but as you all know, it does not work well with 182 (or similar) dpi-mode.
What do you think? let me know.
Is anybody able or interested to do this? Because of the view counter I'm thinking there are a few people who want to see a port of this.
I would do it by myself but i'm no programmer and not able to do this.
i can make this happen
but make at least 30 to 50 persons vote for it and i'll make it
Yes kOsh. I know you can do it. You did/do also a awesome job with the TW4. So i hope there are other peopel those whant to have the simple and original "look&feel" of the standart TW from the Tab.
Basicly the Homescreen is just a simple modification of the Stock GB launcher. Maybe it is possible to port it also for other devices.
For me, the point is that the app-drawer and the two "main positions" (next to the app-drawer button) are customizable. But the Launcher have still to be fast as hell like the original, combined with the usability of the 182dpi-mode.
I hope the best!

[Q] Some annoying issues regarding the phone.

Hey,
I just got my myTouch 4G Slide, and I have a few annoying issues. It could be due to the fact that I bought it in China (it even has some apps with Chinese names).
I don't like the "genius" button - I won't use that, and it doesn't work whatsoever. Is there a way to replace its function with, say, search button (like I had on my previous Android phone)?
Music: firstly, I don't even have a music application - I have to open it with the File Explorer (so I can't multitask). Could be because it's Chinese. The main problem is that the music is played from the speaker in the back of the phone. I like to sometimes listen to music without earphones. Is it possible to play music from the same speaker I use to talk?
When I scroll the applications menu, it "jumps" rather than scrolls smoothly - kinda like the difference between scrolling with the mouse wheel, and hitting "Page Down". Is it also a Chinese issue?
Pictures: so far I'm loving the camera. The only issue is that the pictures it produces are named IMG001, IMG002 and so on. That's really annoying. Is it possible to have the pictures named like on my previous phone, which was simply the time it was taken (yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss)?
Thanks a lot for all helpers!

The music icon in the app drawer is one of the apps hidden by Rosie (Sense Launcher). /system/customize/MNS/default.xml has the hidden app list in it.
I don't know if it's possibly to play music through the front-facing speaker at this time, though there's no reason why it can't be. A fun project for someone.

Yea, that's the way it's supposed to be. I don't like it either. You have to edit the Sense launcher directly to change it.
I just spent all day digging around in a decompiled Rosie.apk (Sense launcher) pulling out Kidzone by it's teeth. I've been fixing that kind of stuff since before the sun came up today, funny you should post those questions.

[*]Pictures: so far I'm loving the camera. The only issue is that the pictures it produces are named IMG001, IMG002 and so on. That's really annoying. Is it possible to have the pictures named like on my previous phone, which was simply the time it was taken (yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss)?
Thanks a lot for all helpers!

Dunno about this one. I don't think it's a native option, but don't see why it couldn't be written in after the fact.
Thanks for the reply.
Firstly I think we can be sure all the things I posted in OP are solvable - simply because (I think) Android is a Turing-complete machine
As for the "genius" key, I suppose it requires root etc.? Well I guess I would have to root it sometime
For music, how do I un-hide it, then? It really makes no sense to hide such a basic application!
I hope you'll keep me and the rest of the forum updated with the other stuff mentioned. Best of luck!
Have a nice weekend,
Ron.
Can't you get google music from the market? If not, download a room, pull the apk and install it. And this phone is much much much much better rooted. Thanks six btw, enjoying the rom.

The music icon is in the media room icon, along with video player, slacker radio and a couple other items. It took me a while to find it when I got my phone last month.

You have to... i dunno wut da fuhhh T Mo did with this "OS Overlay?"
So, are there any available solutions to the presented problems (except for the first one)?
In addition, I think that when I firstly got the phone and got a call, I got two circles (accept/reject), which I had to drag to a ring (a bit similar to the lock screen). Now it just gives me the standard accept-reject buttons. I couldn't find anything about it in the settings - what have gone wrong?
I believe the answering screen alters depending on whether your screen was locked, or unlocked, at the moment you received your call. Correct me if I'm wrong...
Anyone knows why they removed the Stocks app? Or it is hidden? If hidden how to enable it?

How did you root it and what did you install in it?
I'm just a bit scared of doing that.
