Next Launcher - Thunderbolt General

Has anyone else tried Go Dev's new Next Launcher? I really like it its very smooth for the effects that it has, although I'll be glad when they start getting themes got it and more icons.

I am using it now actually and I love it. I can't wait for themes to be made for it and the next live wallpapers too.

I've been using and playing around with it since it released.
I also find it to be quite functional, usable, smooth, nice looking and user friendly.
It very much reminds me of a cross between SPB Shell and TSF Shell.
With the best aspects of each incorporated, as well as some older GO touches.
I also look forward to more themes and have even been messing around, making a few of my own.
I also took their only Live Wallpaper and modded it and made my own versions with different colored orbs behind the honeycomb effect.
There is definitely great potential with this Launcher. Hopefully as it matures, the price can drop a little.
As I have only spent this much on one launcher before, and don't plan to do it again.

Care to post your version of the lwp?

Sure, I can do that. No problem.
Did you have a color preference?
If not, then I will just post multiple color options when I do, later this evening.

A blue to match the NuSense theme would be awesome but the multi color version would be just fine if that's what you got already.

I liked SPB Shell too but they have it too where I can't use one downloaded from 4shared. This is definitely very slick and smooth though.

I never liked spb shell. I figured that for the price it should work a lot better than it did. It was almost like they were just throwing stuff in to make it seem like it's worth $15. Honestly next launcher is overpriced to but the go dev team puts out updates like juggernauts so expect it to get really good really fast.

Which one does? Spb or go? The next launcher has none at all. It is actually a smaller download than either or those launchers.

The old go launcher. I remember when it was small and then they added all that crap.

looks nice, but at $15, think i'll have to pass

Ditto, I have only one paid app on my phone and that's one that I won so it was actually free as well.
My PC software is almost all freeware as well, look up "CHEAP" in the dictionary, you'll see my picture there! :laugh:

very nice, have you tried out a one x yet, im loving it.
the screen not only looks, but feels much nicer to me
I'm picking up my one x on Sunday. They were out of the white one so I waited for it. Yea its a nice phone. I started out with an HTC phone so I've always been partial to the smoothness of sense. Never really liked touchwiz much.
Much smoother than touchwiz huh? Transitions are super smooth. Almost like iPhone smooth.

yeah i really am surprised with how fast it is, especially considering its stock.
some people call it a lagless experience, i would say its close to it.
cant wait till we get rom's going, considering its already incredible.

Don't know if anyone was aware of this yet or not.. Hoping for a port soon.

Keep hearing end of August so this looks promising. Also no one who's using the beta build mentions a speed increase. We all can assume its going to have a huge speed increase like on the Nexus.

:laugh: Yea, hopefully Samsung can tell Verizon to move it with this. I'll be surprised if a update doesn't come out before to fix any issues or if the JB update will include them. This phone is great but, their are a few issues I hate. One being the music popping.
Wait so if this comes out for the INT varient is it really that hard for developers to just transition it over to our verizon model?
I was hoping they'd add a couple unified widgets to it with the update.
I love this phone (features, screen, battery), and Touchwiz isn't as bad as people make it out to be..... but..... Is it too much to ask that they add a contacts widget (so that I don't have to use a different syncing app) and a social feed widget that go along with the email and calendar widgets? I miss having a unified feel across the board like on sense. It seems that no matter what widgets I download and install from the market, they look horrible next to Samsung's calendar widget which I've grown to like a lot.
That's really my only gripe on an otherwise great phone. Still looking forward to seeing what JB brings.

Ha that sound's about right. But I think that since we have the unlocked bootloader , devs might be able to get it to us before verizon. IDK.
I'm looking forward to this. I'm also one of those people that like TouchWiz. Way better than the motoblur I had one my droidx.
Ive become dependant of the smart alert feature, somi definitly wouldnt mind a port haha

I agree, the direct call was great. I also liked that you can take a screenshot by swiping your hand over the screen. And the little notification that there's a missed notification when picking up (causing a short vibrate). The missed notification one allowed me to turn off the LED all together and use that to let me know there was something on the phone

No, these do not change. I picked up the ones I thought were worth it already yesterday. Granny Smith, Asphalt 7, Draw Something.
Runtastic is good if you run, which I don't. Except the 5 minutes at the gym.
Looks like the only one worth something in here is OfficeSuite Pro 6... but I will know next week, when the lectures will start. Someone recommends anything from that list?

I already got Swiftkey very cheap a few months ago
World Of Goo for 25p? I'm having some of that! I paid £7 for it on Wii and loved it, so 25p to have it portable is a bargain! Hoping there'll be more great games like that available in the sale.

Uh, you have to be more specific. What do you want to do with the tablet? Are you an Apple person, or an Android person? 7'? 8.9"? 10"?
you can try the galaxy note tablet
I'm looking for an android tablet. Either a 7" or 10". I was looking between the galaxy tabs 2 both in 7" and 10". Kinda read mixed reviews.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I would YouTube galaxy2 tab vs galaxy note and use spec difference. My personal opinion the note would be my choice because galaxy tab can be hassle with fc even in basic stock. But you gotta find the difference there
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I have a tab 2 10.1. It hasn't had any fc or problems. It also doesn't have very much dev support. It runs well for me, it's rooted, and I use it for watching movies and surfing the web.
Look into the note tablet and the nexus 7. Those are better tablets as far as specs go. They probably also have more dev support. Up to you though, the tab 2 works just fine for me.

Just got myself a nexus 7. Can't give a review or anything as I haven't even unboxed it yet. Personally, I wanted the nexus 10 but its just not in my budget right now. Little brother has an account through newegg so settled for that. Same price as it is through the play store too.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda
I've had a nexus 7 for a few months now. I love it. The constant android os updates are a huge plus for me. There's pretty good dev support, too. For the price, I'm shocked at how much I like it.
There are a few bugs with the screen. Some users report a horizontal line of burnt pixels developing, and other users report blurry edges. My nexus 7 developed the horizontal line last week. I made a three minute phone call and a new nexus 7 arrived two days later. Not bad at all. I've read the screen issues have been fixed as of now.
Oh, it's also easy as heck to root and maintain. Rooting took me less than 10 minutes from start to finish.
Edit:
It depends if u really want a similar experience as the skyrocket. I imagine the Samsung tablets may be a good pick. I found the uber clean stock Android 4.2 system on the N7 was simple enough for me to bounce and forth between the skyrocket and not go bald or blind from stress.

Ah ok, hows that going so far? I can imagine everything "just works" as they say, lol
I mean yeah it works but so does android... First off I love iTunes! It's so cool plugging in phone at night and it automatically copies itself, the iPhone 5 is just so insanely fluid and fast! Camera is same as my Evo lte. Overall it's just nice having something that never stutters, no missing pics of kids due to lag, or anything like that. Idk just want something new until android is completely fluid.
I hear ya, hopefully the next version is smooth
