Launcher pro Facebook widget ussues

I am running both launcher pro Facebook widget and the Facebook app widget and I have noticed that the launcher pro widget does not update properlly. I am not getting all the updates that I get with the actual Facebook app widget. Anyone else having this issue? I would rather just run the launcher pro widget instead of both Widgets as it looks a lot better. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Have you checked the refresh frequency for the LP widget from the LP menu?

I set the frecuency to refresh every five minutes. The problem is on the actual Facebook app widget I get my sisters posts but on the LP Facebook widget it will not show her posts, I can't seem to figure out why they the LP widget does not show all posts.

Me too, but it was leaving me embarrassed by not seeing updates fast enough.

I couldn't seems to get my LP widgets to update;
given up on it.
HAve decided to move to ADW EX and colorize widgets.

Have you tested Go launcher. They have a facebook widget.

I tested all. LP, GO launcher and ADW and I can say LP has best screen performance and look faster when playing with 4 homescreens in same launcher. I have no issue with my LP Facebook widget.

Download below or see attached,

Install as normal apk. I renamed my twlauncher in /system/apps to prevent it from from loading on reboot. Rebooted (by pressing home+vol_down). I have added the tested version of apk.

Is it better compared to adw launcher?speed wise i mean to ask..

I test it. And I think this launcher is pretty good (speed and smooth).
But I prefere LauncherPro
Thx for sharing.

Not preferred ....
Ya its a good launcher..smooth and fast....but it drains the battery very fast.....so not for long battery needers......I prefer zeam launcher...or tw3

question for developer?
is possible port the DianXin ROM ?

Launcher Wars

Im considering switching to the Go Launcher for some of the Go Widgets compared to the ADW Launcher EX. What are the differences between them?

I find it hard to believe nobody has used either of these.

Why not just install it and compare them yourself? GoLaucher is p good, but I've never used ADW.

go launchers good, sslauncher is better.......by far.

Ive used both and prefer ADW EX over Go Launcher. I found Go Launcher used more RAM and still felt slower. ADW EX is very fast, much faster than my stock Motoblur and it has nice customization features.

go launcher has always felt faster and smoother than adw for me

I use adw launcher ex on my arc and it runs really smooth

Go launcher all the way!

Sure, you have to try both to find out what is better for your device/rom.
For me go launcher has more features than adw launcher ex, but adw launcher ex is smoother when I open app drawer; so I prefer adw.
Actually I'm testing 360 launcher...

ADW.Launcher is my favorite. They fixed the annoying bug in the hidden dock.
Go Launcher, APEX Launcher and MIUI's launcher are good also.

In my opinion, go launcher, becouse it have task killer app

Unlocked BootLoader
Stock Kernel*
Stock Firmware*

Agree with above

I've used both when in Gingerbread so as to find the best launcher experience. I found that I actually switched back and forth quite frequently.
1. Go launcher used to be my premier until the bug was fixed in ADW.
2. Go launcher also had Go Locker and a number of additional widgets.
Bottom line, both were excellent and both received some $ from my purchase of the EX version (ADW) or for the locker skins (Go Launcher + Go Locker).
As I'm now trying out CM9 alpha, I'm staying on Trebuchet for build tests.
I think you are finding it difficult to get a full brand a list of features versus brand b list of features becuase they so closely duplicate each other. The exception is the large number of widgets and locker skins for Go. At the same time, ADW has been around for some great theme development.
When I used benchmarking applications, I couldn't tell any difference in performance, so that won't be a factor.

My opinion
Pro Launcher or Stock(TW)

I installed Apex on my Samsung Skyrocket 4g to get the real launcher in ICS but my Phone Dialer is still the same... Any suggestions to change the dialer too?

I have used both on gingerbread and i'm trying adw on honeycomb now. I think i prefer go launcher though. It's more "blingy" for me. I actually might be installing it later tonight to see how it runs under honeycomb.

Go Launcher, it feels much smoother than ADW but that's my opinion.

Go launcher
Go Launcher here. ADW always lagged more than Go Launcher on HTC legend + the widgets and customizability of Go Launcher seem better to me.

Its the matter of your device and ROM...for example im on stock 2.2 on ZTE BLADE and Go launcher lagging for me but ADW is amazingly fast. And i hate go launcher because of the big icons option...i want only big icons in dock not in drawer because it looks like corner for childs in the mall

[APP][2.1+]DX Home- very good launcher for any device!

DX Home​Very good launcher from Chinese developers!
He has many themes, lock screens etc.
I use it on 4.0.4 and he work excellent! Try it!

Will be great when authors let users delete Baidu's search widget and optimize RAM usage. Until then I'll be using QQ launcher which is similiar but has less features.

Unfortunately is laggy for my X10

The 360 launcher lags on your x10 device but does not lags on my x10 mini pro
Sent from my U20i using xda premium

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

Best Launcher ever! Xperia 206b & a workatound fix. No root needed.

Update
You can use any wallpaper you want but it shows as black, some skewed icons in app drawer bottom row. No other issues on Moto Z.
Good news: The folder bug does not exists for the Z!
I cannot find a more satisfying launcher in spite of its "no folder" bug.
The TSF was too much of a Hog.
I have moved on to TSF Shell. It has all the features of Xperia & more. Worth the price too.
If you create a folder it will not last. While the workaround fixes the loss of icons. Lossed folders are also a consequence of the initial bug.
In fact may be the cause of the bug.
Therefore folder creation is not allowed on any homescreen! !
Those on launcher pro plus OR nova launcher can put the xperia app drawer in place of the stock app drawer. Xperia drawer button in center, Nova button on right.

Xperia drawer
On the msm8960's, which includes the x, the launcher is marred by the Bootup condition where (sometimes) homepage icons/shortcuts are missing. A launcher/settings > restart launcher is a fix.
Dev is no longer supporting this launcher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103403

Can you sort apps by install time?
If you use launcher pro plus or Nova prime, you get tremendous shortcut creation features, to the level that you may add the xperia app drawer to the LPP bar instead of the stock drawer.

Anyone move on to a better launcher?
I cannot find a better.

Well I use smart launcher pro 3 for my default launcher it keeps everything organized and neat.
