Re: [APP][1.6+] Ubuntu Phone Experience
Nice!!
It still laggy sometimes and has some random fcs but its a good idea.
I recommend to add and option for the bar to show just the recents apps and not show that notification when service is running.

nice love ubuntoooo

Absolutely love this app, but sometimes it FC's or is unresponsive. Otherwise, really good slide animation and pretty good responsiveness when it works!

Hi there, so far its very fluid. Could you resize for ldpi phones please

Re: [APP][1.6+] Ubuntu Phone Experience
I'll keep an eye on this, looks very cool

upload an apk file here too. not everyone has access to playstore.

Am I just thick or how do I get the option to choose what applications I want?
EDIT: Found it, am already on Maximum. Is OP the Dev or sharing?

very nice work Buddy, keep developing this as this would be loved by a lot of people around.

The app is genius, just missing : the ability to change apps size and start it from lockscreen. It's really smooth and fast on nexus s 4.2 no lags at all :highfive:

I see you got the idea from not only ubuntu but presumably TSF Shell as well It's really great and I'll definitely buy the full version when I see some basic features added.
Also I'd recommend added support to add shortcuts to your favorite webpages, folders of applications, add a task killer, and be able to customize the look and feel. This is reallly great though, I just gotta say 5 stars man!

I have the same problem.
It would only allow me to launch system applications such as "contacts" but now 3rd party apps... So I reinstalled it, even on a different ROM and now the icons don't even show up, the trey is just empty. Any thoughts? Then when I raise my finger to where the icons should be, it force closes. Thanks!

[APP][2.1+] Apps-Beam - Your apps at a glance ! 1.1

Hi everyone,
I present you Apps-Beam (formerly "gridApps"), an easy ...really easy launcher and app manager with useful shortcuts and a random feature !
Download link: Android Market
Nice review: YouTube
See instantly all your apps at a glance and manage them directly and instantly (launch, share, informations, rate, uninstall), without scrolling ...and scrolling and coming back and forth... A time saving app !
You can even launch applications at random if you don't want to choose one in particular or want to experience randomness !
Apps-Beam displays on a large grid, tiny icons of your apps so that you can quickly access to all of them, in the blink of an eye; just click on an app to launch it and long click to share, uninstall, see information, bookmark, hide, rate on the market (with predefined custom comments to make it even easier !).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Features:
General
~~~~~~~
- Fullscreen launcher
- See all your apps at a glance, instantly, without scrolling ...and scrolling (90+ apps can be displayed in a regular screen)
- Apps listed in alphabetical order by default...change in settings to experience !
- Detect at launch when apps list has changed and update itself !
Apps
~~~~
- single click: launch
- long click: share, rate in the market, bookmark, hide, see information, uninstall
- Multiple selection to hide/bookmark/share (useful for recommendations)
- Share all your bookmarked apps (long click from bookmarks panel)
- Launch one of your application at random and see notification bar to launch another one again ...at random !
- Launch at random from your bookmarked apps ! (set in settings)
- Rate an app with predefined custom comments
- Search on the web for more information
Customization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Fullscreen
- Choose background color (see settings: slide on color picker and push colored disk in the middle)
- Custom icon size from tiny...really tiny to large 150px icons: see instantly the rendering and save your preference
- Custom size for bookmarks panel (choose a size with the slider;back;open bookmarks;save size;that's all !)
Overall
~~~~~~~
- Time saving !
Some hints
~~~~~~~
The fastest way for multiple selections (share/boomark/hide):
-sliding navigation panel
-check checkbox
-select your apps
-click on options icon in the navigation panel
-...and bam !
For options, you can also long click on any item, then "selection options".
~~~~~~~~~~~
Just put the icon of Apps-Beam on your home screen and enjoy with this new app manager concept !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(1)See an application information or clear cache or uninstall it;
-before (5 steps ~): "homescreen Menu/Settings/Application/Manage applications + wait a little/click on app"
-now (3 steps): just "click on Apps-Beam icon/long click app/information or uninstall" ...and bam !
(2)Don't know what to launch now, what app to play with...coffee break;
-before: "home launcher/scroll forth and coming/thinking twice/click on app"
-now: "click on Apps-Beam icon/menu/random app/" ...and bam !
... again ? see notification bar and click on Apps-Beam icon to be even faster !
(3)general comment for 4 stars for a favorite app
-before: "market app/search+text or menu/my apps/click on app/thinking, writing/post"
-now (predefined custom comments): "Apps-Beam app/long click on app/share/paste default text/post" ...bam !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Experience Apps-Beam on tablet or in landscape mode with 100 apps at a glance in regular screen -Galaxy S, desire HD, N1 ...
We found it useful and time saving, we just hope that if you have a lot of apps and you get rid off scrolling and if you're always looking for your apps that you will find Apps-Beam useful also .
To use notification for random app in notification bar efficiently, when you return back to Apps-Beam, push home button so that the app is maintained in background; then just pull down your notification bar and launch apps at random ...till you clear notification or you close Apps-Beam app !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Give it a try on the Android Market
Download link: Android Market
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To "batch uninstall" apps, 3 steps:
1)Slide the handle of the navigation panel (bottom) and check the box to activate multiple selection
2)select your apps
3)click options button (navigation panel or long click an item then "select options") then "uninstall"
..and there you are !
We added translucent background for color also ! Check menu/settings/background and choose your transparency level for your favorite color. It works also for custom png background images (save your custom image in "ergsap/appsbeam/background" on your sdcard and choose it via menu/background) !
Two things:
-Translucent background won't work for OS version Eclair (2.1) and below ... (incompatibility issue with translucent and fullscreen feature)
-To set your custom background color, background image has to be disabled (see menu/background/"no background" and then restart to see your favorite background color)
~ ~~~~~~~~~
Changelogs:
Version1.1 (lot of great updates!)
-to increase performance/stability we added SDCARD permission (icons are stored in sdcard/ergsap/appsbeam) & an internal database (external db were slower)

-recommend/share multiple apps
-manage hidden/bookmarked apps

Hi,
A new version is available in the Android Market with performance improvements (really faster !) and minor bug fixes that were causing load delays (link Android Market ).
Happy to see that gridApps is useful and time saving for you
Notes:
-for very first launch (after installation), gridApps synchronizes all your apps so it takes approximately 5 to 10 s for 100+ apps
-when your apps list is updated (removal or new installation), gridApps synchronize automatically when you launch it and take the same duration to reload
-else it loads almost instantly for apps list in alphabetical order ! (instant if the list is not ordered)
Changelogs:

Thanks for these ideas ; 1) and 2) are in the roadmap along with bookmark/export;
3) doesn't seem straightforward ...perhaps double tapping home-key simpler with some tricks...
I see that CM7 proposes to launch any app for "hold home button" (#homescreen menu/settings/cyano/input/Long-press home/use custom app/select/App/AppsBeam#), useful shortcut ...a replacement solution for rooted phones for the moment ?

Woah, now that looks slick. Will give it a go!
Loving this. Been using since yesterday and I have two notes on it.
First, for some reason the blue notification bubbles that explain immersive mode (see screen shot) reappear every so often even though I select OK to acknowledge them.
Second, some way to indicate the swiping direction to unlock versus open the camera would be cool, even just a single arrow next to the "unlock" text. After a day I've become accustomed to it, but at first I kept opening the camera.
Other than that this is awesome.

Second, some way to indicate the swiping direction to unlock versus open the camera would be cool, even just a single arrow next to the "unlock" text. After a day I've become accustomed to it, but at first I kept opening the camera.
Other than that this is awesome.

1) Apparently there is no way to control this behavior. This is controlled by the new Android 4.4 "Immersive mode" that allows hiding the navbar. We don't know why it keeps showing up again yet. This may be a bug in the build, it's only supposed to show up once per app install.
2) That's a good idea. We will try to implement this.

This could be an interesting feature.
One other idea I had. I LOVE the notifications on this, but could you have it so you press to view and then you could swipe either direction to dismiss?

This its a basic feature, it is already in the apk.
Does it show the content of Whatsapp messages (even with 2 or more messages)?

As far as I'm aware you have to swipe to view a notification, and swipe the other way to dismiss it. I think press to view and swipe either way to dismiss would be more intuitive.

Falling in love with this lockscreen. My major complaint is that it apparently continues to close as I've had several instances throughout the day when it didn't open until I opened the app.
Is this being worked on? Also is there an option to open a custom app instead of just the camera?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Wow, that looks cool! Reminds me of iOS's lockscreen.
App is great and after five minutes I bought the pro version. But one problem for me. After unlock there's noticeable delay in showing the home screen. I see the full empty lockscreen wallpaper for some time before fully unlocking. And maybe the clock could be little lower since it's almost touching the clear status bar

This may be caused by a memory leak, we are on it. About the app shortcuts, we don't know how to implement this in a classy way yet.
Hello,
Really nice app.
I have the same problem as Gnaver on my Galaxy S4, it take quite some times after unlocking to display the homescreen.
Great lockscreen, but I would like to see music controls, and polish language (I can help in translating)

Nope, only the first message is displayed, if there are more than one then there's something like "whatsapp - 2 messages"

No, the gestures are fine. I just can't choose which actions should be done with the gestures.
Ich weiß du bist deutsch deswegen nochmal auf deutsch
Ich kann mir nicht aussuchen, was passieren soll wenn ich eine Geste ausführe. Es ist alles ausgegraut :/

I did this already -.- everything is working fine except the problem I described above. It seem like this feature did not get unlocked. I also reinstalled the app but it didn't solve the problem. I still can't change the gesture actions.
Edit: The problem got solved Thx
App updated to 1.02:
Changelog:
1.02
- misc. fixes
- added 4.4.2 support
Application updated to 1.04
- Added direct download links for quick testing.
- Added Actionshots
- Updated descriptions
looking forward to your feedback
Application updated to 1.05!
New features:
- Added: double tap
- Added: Z slide
I still like GMDGesture Control the best. That app is just so versatile, I use it with Slide Launcher and getting to anything I want from anywhere can't be easier. Plus it's the only app that truly kills pesky apps running unnecessary background processes if you setup a gesture for "kill app" function.
[APP][4.0+] SideCuts - Gestures for your phone
Looks pretty cool, I will give it a try. Thanks
SideControl runs perfect on non rooted phones. Thats a big advantage.
About killing apps, if thats really an issue, lets see if i add some new actions in the future...
BTW, new versuion is out
1.06
- added new custom actions
- music controls: pause, play,
next, prev
- toggle wifi, sound
- unlocked some options in
free version
Closer to Samsung MultiWindows feature
Thanks for sharing !!!

I have one little sugestion that I can't find in any other "side bar launcher app" and I hope you can help
I'd like to have feature to open not only apps from sidebar but also 'shortcuts' and 'activities'. Something like you have in Nova Launcher - that you can for eg. run Slide Over activity with a gesture from Sliding Messaging App.
EDIT: My mistake! There already is feature to launch shortcuts and stuff! Great app!
Here you have the Spanish translation. There may be some mistakes since it's very late and I don't have much time (I revised it a couple of times).
Please anybody correct me if I'm wrong, but:
In "Disable Touch Areas is selected Apps" I supposed "is" was meant to be "if"
Since I haven't used the App a lot I don't know what "Opening Animation Time" is for (the translation may be different); this also applies to other words.
There is also a punctuation correction.
I don't mind testing the translated App before it is released
Thank you for the app!
*Translation Updated (1):
-Fixed some mistakes.
-Changed a few things now that I have used the App more.
-Translated some things I had forgotten.
*Translation Updated (2):
-New translation file translated
-Minor changes
Nice one. rly like it

Hi, nice app.
When selecting an image for lockscreen, image is stretched in portrait, and when rotated in landscape as well. It needs to be cropped properly..
I had some issues where screen would be locked, but rotating the phone to landscape would automatically unlock the screen.
Locking the screen while in landscape mode, sometimes works.
Good start.

I've been waiting for something like this for ages. Used it on CM on my first phone, but on my newer phones I didn't installed CM and it's almost the only thing I REALLY missed about CM
Now the review: I installed the app on my S3 mini (4.1.2, rooted, stock rom, debloated,just 1 sript currently: Malivebooster, don't know if you need further details). Enabled the lock inside the app, but when i lock the screen nothing happens. Can't really USE the app. I can enter to the settings inside the app, but when I lock the screen, still nothing.
Please fix this. I really want to use this app :laugh:
Is there a setting for invisible gesture so that people can't see your gesture?

Amazing job. Really different, clean and smooth. Just rated. Is it possible to add notification counter ? Like unread emails or texts?
Notification counter are in progress, i can't give eta but it will be done fore sure, thanks for your support !!
good app
Good app. i have just download it.
and i find direct apk file for this app
https://apksfull.com/get/com.majeur.launcher/location/2/
Thanks !
I don't really understand this kind of website, i think it's not bad as long as my app is free. Is this kind of site dangerous ?
Is it possible to replace the starting widget? Also, could there be an auto detect feature for our location? Some cities can have multiple locations, say Dallas, but they're in different states and there's no way to differentiate between them as they show up as Dallas, United States instead of Texas or Colorado (or Wisconsin).
He shouldn't have posted that. The app should be downloaded from the Play Store only so the Dev can keep track of the number of downloads and issue that are reported.

You can disable defaut widget, it s called top panel.
Go to settings/top/top panel and switch the enable/disable switch. Then you can put any widget you want.
Cities are provided by universal yahoo weather api, so i cant really do something.
Auto location is not planned, but i' ll think about that for next updates.
Thanks for your feedback.

Notification count work depending on launchers and app which wants to display notification count.
To be brieve, for example facebook app wants to tell home that there is 3 notification unviewed.
Facebook app will check which launcher is set as default and use an adapted way (Broadcast or ContentProvider) to send notification count to it.
Facebook sends count only to current default launcher, and if launcher is unkown, it do nothing.
For now facebook support only aosp launcher, samsung, sony and htc.
So to receive notification count, solid launcher has to be supported by facebook ... And i don't think it will
A library exists to make job easier to developers, developers just sends unread count, and library take care of determinate which launcher is by default and way to notify it. I'll ask to library's developer to add solid launcher. But only few recent app will support this. In the future, all apps that will use this library will be supported by Solid Launcher !

That's awesome!
Another feature I would like it would be to be possible to add my own icons, I say this because I've bookmarked my company mail and added the icon on launcher, but it would be also nice to have the possibility to change the icon for something more "clean".
Either way is one of the most cleaned and diferent launchers I've tried (and I tried them all, or almost). Very good job specially for the new perspective of launchers
