Go Launcher Ex, impossible to go to landscape - Android General

Hi,
On my Galaxy S4, I have installed Go Launcher. Everything works good, except that Go Launcher is not going into landscape at all, it is staying in portrait mode. I have auto-rotate enabled and all the other applications (ex: Google Maps) move perfectly to landscape.
I have also noticed that the 'Digital clock' widget is not properly displayed in Go Launcher Pro on my phone. It is not properly centered, cf. attached files.
I have tried to clear cache/data and uninstall/reinstall Go Launcher, but I am still having the same problem !
Please help? how can I solve this.
My Wifi also has a S4, Go Launcher is working perfectly: it does switch to landscape and the 'Digital clock' widget is perfectly displayed (ie. no cut)
Regards, Chris

Do you have an idea, what I can do to solve this issue?
is it possible to contact Go team about this? (I have not found how on their website)

Launcher Pro Wallpaper

Is anyone else having problems with wallpaper on Launcher Pro? Using the default launcher, the wallpaper scales down to the size I set. Launcher Pro keeps it HUGE and cannot be adjusted no matter what the resolution is.
Am I doing something wrong?
I have the same problem, it happens basically with any launcher that is non stock. theres apps that can fix the problem, but seems like a quirk that we're stuck with

So I was having the same problem and figured out what causes it, and a way to generally avoid it.
what seems to be causing it: Allowing home screen rotation. It appears that as soon as you rotate, Launcher pro resizes the wp to that pixelated mess, and will not revert it back once returning to portrait. I've had it happen also while going to the home screen while having the browser in landscape
to prevent: from home screen click menu / preferences / behavior settings / -> and make sure "enable auto rotation" is unchecked. (don't worry you can still rotate in apps by activating the rotation setting in the notification bar, unchecking that box just prevents the home screen rotation)
to fix your current messed up wallpaper: click menu / settings / applications / manage applications / -> click launcher pro / click clear defaults.
this will allow you to activate touchwiz again. So hit the home screen button and select TW to complete that action. after it's done try setting your wp again. Go ahead and reset launcher pro as your default now and your wp should still look good. You should now be able to crop new wp's and have them look fine too.
you shouldnt have to do this again
all set!
That did the trick. Thanks!
I tried that but it didn't work on my evo 3d
there is another work around
open the pic you want to use
rotate your phone to landscape mode
set your wallpaper using the landscape square, not the narrow one. Let it finish.
rotate your phone back to normal
your WP should now not be that pixelated mess

[Q] Question about WidgetLocker/ADW notifier

Hi,
I have question about Widgetlocker and ADWnotifier. Is anyone can get these work to show up count in lock screen? I use Go Launcher Pro. But Widgetlocker documentation said ADWnotifier works fine without ADWlauncher, how ever I can not get it work...
(Go launcher notification works fine in home screen but not in wideget locker lock screen. )
Any one using this?
Edit:- May be I am wrong earlier, It seems working though now. Still like to hear from others. [Earlier I has GoDialer, GoSMS on lock screen now I placed default dialer, sms application option from widgetlocker options which seems working)
Exact same setup. Go Launcher Pro, Widget Locker, and ADW Notifier. Works fine. If you run into problems again, just change the icons/apps on the lockscreen.

LauncherPro: auto-rotate in app drawer puts all apps in top left corner

I'm sure this is a common issue but I can't seem to find a way to word it to yield any fruitful search results.
If you enter the app drawer in portrait orientation and then turn your phone to landscape, all the icons overlap in one spot in the top left corner. Returning to portrait puts all the icons back in their correct places. If you are in landscape mode before hitting the app drawer button, the icons draw correctly. Rotating to portrait is also fine, but attempting to go back to landscape creates the same problem.
Is this problem a known one? Is there a fix besides switching launchers (I've tried ADW, ADW Ex, GO Ex, etc., and still vastly prefer LP over all others)?
Report the problem to the developer of the launcher.

[Q] Strange issue with ADW launcher on tablet

Hi all!
Before posting i've searched in the forum for my issue with no success.
Anyway have installed adw launcher on my tablet with original rom but after some days when i enter in app drawer and rotate the tablet magically the drawer disappear
I've tried to tap the screen and the apps open correctly so the app drawer seems invisible and covered from the background.
Have tried to reboot the tablet, uninstall, re-install, delete data of adw but not solve the problem.
Anyone say how to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.

In ADW launcher, under settings, there should be a few options such as "transparency in tablet mode" - this would be available under the app drawer settings. Make sure you don't have two entirely different settings for horizontal and verticle as well.

Always On Display keeps showing missed call counter

Self explanatory.
If I've missed a call, it shows on my AoD (which is good). But even when I clear the notification and/or go to my call log and clear the counter within the launcher itself, it still shows on the AoD. Only a system restart seems to clear it.
Everything is stock on my S7.

Didn't have that problem myself but mine just doesn't work at all. Could yours have something to do with the dialer?

Quite possible, but not sure how. I use Nova Launcher and everything else is stock.

For what it's worth I'm also using Nova launcher and seeing the same issue on a new GS7.
Drives me nuts!
Doesn't it go away after going on your call logs area, or does it require a reboot?
I cant remember what I did

I've had the same issue using Nova Launcher with a Galaxy S7 Edge. It turns out it's just a conflict between the launcher and TouchWiz itself, if you go to Settings > Applications > Default Applications > Home and change it from Nova back to TouchWiz, give it a chance to load up and everything, tap on the dialler to clear the little number that appears over the icon, wait for that number to disappear then make Nova your default home launcher again and hey presto the little notification on the always-on display will be gone.

Thank you also had the same issue with my Galaxy S7 Edge with Nova Launcher ( Paid Version ). Worked exactly like you said
- Go to Settings -> Applications -> Default
- There select HOME and change it from Nova Launcher to TouchWiz.
- Check your default caller app ( that green one that comes with samsung ), delete all logs for safety
- Go back to Home as described above and change back to Nova Launcher
Thanks for Asauz!!! was driving me nuts this issue
