LauncherPro FTW! - EVO 4G General

I just switched from sense to Launcher Pro Beta, and I must say that it is amazing... It's just so much more predictable and useful, not to mention faster and smoother. On top of that, from what I have heard, it is great for battery life, just switched so I haven't had a chance to test that out yet.
If you haven't given it a shot yet, download it from the market and try it out, I promise you will not regret it. Its MUCH better than sense. I never had a problem with sense, but I just figured Id try something new, and it paid off...
P.S Does anybody know if the new software patch that came out today will be included in any of the developers roms? I'm not to sure how that stuff works.

ADW.Launcher is also a worthy alternative, imo. Very customizable.

There should be an updated DamageControl out tonight built off the OTA.
And yes, LauncherPro is definitely the best launcher that I've used! I love it!

I downloaded this from the market to try it out but it doesn't look like anything has changed. How do I switch to it and possibly back?

Press the Home key, and you should get an option to select between HTC Sense, Launcher, and LauncherPro. If that doesn't work, just download Home Switcher from the Market.

There we go, thank you.

I loved the extra speed and how the shortcuts were laid out. I also liked that you didnt have to have the writing under each icon. BUT I missed my full screen calendar, toggle widgets, etc. So Im back to sense. I dont have access to these when using a different launcher. Am I doing something wrong?

You can't use HTC widgets outside of the Sense launcher. However, there are replacement widgets in the Market for almost everything you are missing. For example, Pure Grid Calendar Widget and Weather & Toggle Widgets.

I played around with it after that post, but just couldnt get it how I wanted it AGAIN. So Im back to sense haha. I really need 6 icons on the dock at the bottom to avoid extra icons on my home screen. I also wanted a 4G toggle to match the rest, and that doesnt seem to be out. The only one out (that I could find) is a light bulb..

You know with LauncherPro you can change it to 5 rows of icons (20 total) on the screen at once, right? You can potentially have 28 more slots than with Sense.

Im talking about JUST the dock at the bottom. Not shortcuts added to the screen itself. Right now I have the rosie bar at the bottom that launches my app drawer/phone/etc. Then I have 4 icons above it. Handcent, Gmail, Internet and People. With LauncherPro I can have all 4 of those on the dock, but then the 5th spot is taken by either the app drawer or phone. I want both. I know you can do the scroll thing, but its not the same. I just like a simple look and wanted everything I have now on my HOME screen.
Here is the setup now. I want all of the same access on the home screen, and it cant be done with LauncerPro. 5 short cuts on the dock and then a random widget on the screen just wouldnt look as clean.

Edit-And the 4G toggle thing is something I really wanted to. If I could get one to match the rest of the toggles, I would be happy with LauncherPro.

ADW.Launcher works pretty good.
A few things I like:
- You can make as many columns and rows of Icons as you want per screen (up to 8 x 8, so that would be 64 icons per screen).
- Swipe down anywhere on a screen to make the top bar come down

Modding The Wing w/ Stock T-Mobile Rom.

Simple question here. I'm guessing i'm one of the very few people here (if not the only one) that hasn't done any hard-spl type modification to my Wing/Herald. So that means I am using the stock T-Mobile rom that came with the phone. My question is, what kind of useful (or just cool in general) .cab files work well with it?
So far I have the slide to unlock, pcshutXP, battery status, digital clock, keyboard skins, a custom black theme and more. I checked the thread with all the .cab files and found all those. Unfortunately, alot of them don't have descriptions so I didn't know what most of them did.
I'm not really looking for anything in particular except something cool that can give me the weather on my today screen and maybe a better alarm program.
Thanks in advance.
right now i have BatteryStatus with the clock extension, then under it HTC Home with weather, launcher, and profile options.
Black WM6.1 theme
Jivetalk - IM program, amazing
removed the tray launcher thing
i can't really think of anything else i've done, i spent forever trying to figure out batterystatus themes and how to get rid of the launch tray, so it seems like i spent a lot of time customizing, but i can't think of anything else.
If anything, I wanna get rid of the T-Zones in the launch tray. But I wanna keep the rest of the things down there. Any idea how? Also, can you give me the .cab file for the HTC Home with weather thing you use? What exactly is it, just weather that displays on your today page? Also, what's the Black WM6.1 theme look like? Any chance of a screen shot or something?
Thanks.

You can use any registry editor to do it. Just go to HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet and delete both keys 4 and 5 there, then do soft-reset.

I definitely wouldn't mind having mine look a little similar to yours, lol. Do me a favor and pm me the black theme and htc home. Battery status I already have. Yours might be different though? This is something you did with the stock tmobile rom though, right?

yeah i'm on the stock ROM
Cool, I pm'd you back. I also like how it has "Messaging" on the left side and "Contacts" on the other. That's what I originally wanted to do. I don't need the Calander on there since it's already on my today. A few things though. I use battery status. I don't see it on yours. Am I overlooking it or is yours different? Also, i'd prefer to keep the tray I have on the bottom. That's how I open Palringo and lock/unlock my phone. Unless there's another way do to it on yours. Are you able to change the icons that display on the Today screen?
Also, I have palringo. So I don't need JiveTalk.
And technically, I wouldn't lose any of my data on my phone when I use this right? Cause it's not really updating or anything?
i want the stock
right now im on the touch it 4.1 and i want to go back to the stock rom. ive used the RUU but it just goes to 1% and then the phone restarts and then the process comes up as an error. can anyone help?
BTW wyldstallyns2589, I was able to change the weather to fahrenheit. I don't know how I overlooked it, but I found it! Hit the weather tab, then click on the city. Then, click your city in the list and hit menu on the bottom right. From there, you go to weather options. From there, you'll see where you're able to change it from one to the other.
You've been a big help. Thanks alot, I mean it. My phone looks alot better than it did. Any idea if I can get the clock a big smaller? I like it big, but it being THAT big.. it takes up alot of room, lol.

No problem. the clock will not go any smaller, that is why i have switched to batterystatus for my clock.
and i had palringo, but jivetalk is so much better, i suggest you at least try it out. the only thing it doesn't do better than palringo is when your phone is on vibrate it doesn't vibrate

Helixlauncher(2) on Desire

Has anyone tried to install the Helixlauncher or Helixlauncher2 app created for the Nexus One on their Desire? I'm curious because it seems the stock android 2.1 launcher2 from the Nexus One is removed from the Desire rom, and I really like the look of it and don't think I will use the Sense widgets anyway to save battery.

It does't work that method any more when you try it just starts sense again they have taken the launcher out, Helixauncher2 app works nice from the market place i like how you can drag things either side of the all programs launcher.
If anyone wants to try these things and wants to change easy from one to the other so you can set one as default download home switcher from the market place then you can use which ever you like.
Home Switcher doesn't give me an option for default Android.
It will when you install helixlauncher 2.

So does it mean that if I install HELIXLAUNCHER2 & Home Switcher from Android Market. Then I should be able 2 have standard android 2.1 or what... Your help is appreciated friend...

Tried it for a day and it froze on me twice. Never had my Desire freeze on me before and i installed nothing else new so i'm putting it down to this. Removing!
This kills weather animation if you switch back to Sense, and seriously why would you buy HTC and not use Sense it is the best UI around and once rooted will be completely customised.
How ever on other android devices this would be a great app.

This works fine for me i been using Helix for 4 days now with no issues, if you install Helix 2 and home switcher when you launch home switcher you have a choice of using Helixlauncher2(stock 2.1 android like the Nexus) or Sense UI.
I switch between the 2 all the time and have had no problems with it at all, one day i might prefer sense the other nexus style just depends
In the picture below what i like with helixlauncher you can drag things either side of the launcher and they stay there as you move about the screens, which i like and it saves 4 icons on your main screen.

If any body knows if Helix Launcher & Home Switcher are uninstall-able & if after uninstall if leaves any ill-affect (as one of the post above says it destroys something in weather animation)...

I tried Helix again and this time not got any freezes but now my icons when i press the menu button are all there but the text is really far to the right. So you see 1 and a half letters for each item lol.
I find it odd as it works perfectly for me you are getting helix launcher 2 and not just helix launcher.

Yes I'm not that slow. I guess its possibly conflicting with some sort of app or setting.
I have them both working side-by-side without a single quirk. Removed it first time so this is a typical reinstall.

Managed to reproduce the error again. Something to do with the screen rotation not sure what i did but once the text is stuck it requires a restart of Helix 2 or the phone.

I am having this issue too. I think it has something to do with using 3D apps like openGL games where the screen automatically rotates, because the Helix launcher is also 3D accelerated but then back in portrait mode.
This issue also exists with custom 2.1 roms on Hero when you use the Google gallery.

ADW or LauncherPro

Been looking a ADW over @ modaco!
Now we've got 2.1, anyone here tried Launcherpro?
I've tried both.
Launcher Pro is very slick however you are stuck with 4 x 4 icons as far as I can tell.
ADW you can put more icons on the screen and can also lock it into portrait by using the persistence option, so that's what I use now (even though I'd previously paid for Launcher Pro on my last phone, d'oh).
Been messing with ADW over the last hour, I've got so much more screen space, i'm not sure what to do with it all
Also sorted my fancy widget, which 2.1 really screwed up.

Can you guys export your adw settings regards to icons nd widgets? I've been trying but cant seem to get it right. Looks aweful.
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
I've tried ADW after reading this and it looks like it has real potential but I have a daft question. How do you add icons to the desktop? I've tried dragging them from the drawer as per the stock launcher but they just disappear and I've tried creating shortcuts but that just seems to launch the app.
Toute, if holding your finger on the screen and choosing shortcut -then application-then choose app- launches the app then some thing is wrong and I recommend reinstalling adw
It should work in the same way as the standard launcher, except dragging from the app menu-which has never worked for me

See, I told you it was a daft question, many thanks Fazziebear
When in ADW in landscape look to the right side of screen you should see a vertical bar with two shortcut icons and what looks like a grid.
Tap the grid this will launch the ADW app drawer (black backround etc) scroll to the app you want then just tap it.
This is an awesome bit of kit, it's like have two phones, trying to set it up so i've got the Dell launcher for work and ADW for play. Sought of 'SPAS-12' with pump or auto.

Thanks Checkbox, that's pretty much the same as the drop down drawer, neither is too convenient when you have loads of apps. Besides, I've got 5 screens to play with, it would be criminal not to fill them all up with my most used apps. I can separate them by type this way too, general/work/games/photography/technical etc.
If you want the look of ADW in 'Streak Launcher' try Multicon Widget http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.h9kdroid.multicon
Awesome
Running launcher pro and its awesome. I thought it was possible to change the location of the of the dock to one of the four sides of the screen (top, bottm, left, and right). Has this feature been removed or am I missing something?
thanks cheers.
launcher pro or go launcher if u want resizeable widgets
launcher pro if u want 6 x 8 icons
go launch if u want 30 desktops

Not so awesome under Stage UI. The icons are not spaced correctly. The icons show up in groups of four and don't look like it flows like the Multicon homepage shows. Also there's wasted space between Fancy Widget and the Multicon icons.
My favourite is Sweeter home is still in beta but it has loads of themes and totally transforms the look of the streak

Instal ADW with Gingerbread theme (the backround looks fantastic on Streak)
Instal Launcherpro and use that, you then have Launcherpro with a backround that i can't find or replicate properly, looks awesome.

Hacked ADW w/ Large MIUI'ish dock

Updated to ADW latest github
I hacked up ADW launcher to have a MIUI'sih dock. It's nothing special but I kinda dig it so i figured id dump it here to share. I'm pretty sure it will only work in portrait mode because i never use landscape i didn't bother modding that source.
Thanks to Anderweb for having such a great open source project!
Thanks to Jrizzill for having such great icons!
- ADWSettings->Main Dock Style->5 Icons has been changed, to have 4 large icons as in pictures below. You must have ADWSettings->UI Settings->Dockbar checked to have swipe gesture open/close app drawer properly.
- Get icons here.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-d1-miui/88474-miui-themed-icons.html
- To open/close the app drawer, swipe the dock apps.
- To add a MIUI icon to the dock
1) long press, select custom shortcut
2) press pick your activity, press applications, select application
3) click the icon to the left of the "pick your activity" button, navigate to the one you want to use, click ok.
4) drag and drop it into the dock.
- Use desktop visualizer (1x1 small) for other desktop shortcuts.

OMG this is exactly what I've been looking for. Seriously when i switched from the Incredible to the Fascinate, the one thing I really missed was MIUI and having the large dock. I've been trying to hack launcher pro but this is great! Thank you so much.
Does this need root?
Awesome!
There are only a few bugs that I have found.
- For some reason I can't seem to trash anything on the screen :O Drag to the top of the screen and nothing happens, just reappears on the bottom.
- Sometimes when hitting the home button it forgets what apps are in the dock until I open the tray and close it.
Not sure if those have to do with the version that you compiled, or ADW itself. Anyhow not trying to get down on ya, considering this is exactly what I was looking for!
Can't wait for 2.2 MIUI!

don't believe so
For all those out there using blackhole rom's if you are using the embedded ADW then you can't install this for some reason. I had to reinstall a clean rom with TW and then install this APK.
EDIT:
Sorry for the double post
Glad you guys like it. I will try and fix/tweak a few things. Also will try to make it so that it can be installed side by side with stock ADW.
1) haven't had that happen with missing dock apps. try using the old dock implementation, that's the config i'm using? will mess around with it.
2) do you see the trash icon appear at the top of the screen? try and drag it all the way up to the top and drop it there. it works for me.
3) you don't need root, but if you are using some ROM with ADW pre-installed, just remove it from /system/app and drop this apk in there.

Odd, how do I implement the old dock config? Also yes the trash can appears, I drag the icon up, it turns red then it reappears at the original location just does not want me to change the setup haha
hmm weird with the delete.
make sure that this is not checked.

Ok, found it. Still seems to have the same issue sometimes. Once in a while only 2 icons in the tray will appear in the center, until I open the app drawer then close it. Once I do that all is good again.
i updated a new build, try that one.
How do I use these icons in adw? Step by step if possible.
updated to 1.3.1 and added some instructions.
tried using desktop virtualizer to make the other icons. It works but there small. How do I make them larger. I'm using the icons in the link you provided.
Thanks
The large icons in the dock seem a bit fuzzy.Am I the only one having this problem?
I used hd icons btw
updated to latest github commits.

Hi,
You've done a fantastic job.
But can you build a version with dock bar like the dock on mac os? It should look like this image below

MIUI
icons in this launcher are bad, can you port MIUI ADW theme for this? becouse theme haves good icons from MIUI and can you made dock from MIUI(screen indicator, dock style). If this`ll complete, launcher`ll looks pretty good) thanks!

* LE: I made a mistake, it's working now. Agree with with the fuzzy icons in the dock. And also, is there a way to increase the number of rows? I like the icons to have also their labels, and only this is how it will going to work. Thanks.
Can we change the dockbar??

[Q] LauncherPro Error?

Hey all, I've got a question. I'm running stock root on my NC with LauncherPro, and for whatever reason, I can't change the shortcuts on the dock. I want to change them to programs I actually have - by default, I don't have a messaging or phone app. Whenever I try to change the shortcut (by holding down on the icon and then going to change it), LauncherPro launches the previous app I had open. Has anyone else had this problem?
I am open to switching launchers - I just use LauncherPro on my phone so I know how to work it. I'm looking for a really fast, minimalistic-launcher. GoLauncher is too feature heavy, and it makes my NC lag. Zeam launcher also lags a lot. I want something very snappy and fluid, even if it is lacking in features.

Make sure your homepage isn't locked.... then long press one of the ones you want to get rid of and delete it... then the others
Then you can add the ones you want
What do you mean, locked? I've tried doing just that - long pressing and removing it, but it doesn't work.

When you push menu on the home page, there is an option to lock the homepage so you don't accidently mess it up. It is a toggle so just tap it to unlock.
Oh, is there? I can't for the life of me find it. Whenever I press home, lock isn't one of the options.

Not home, menu once you are on the home screen. It may not be on the first menu, you may have to push more or advanced or something, but it is there.
Yeah, that's what I'm doing. I looked under all of the settings - from advanced settings to Appearence, and there's no lock home screen option, or anything like it in Launcherpro.

Well, obviously it is locked so launcher pro must have that setting somewhere. Look in their documentation. For most the other launchers it is in menu on home screen, not in settings.
I installed ADW launcher and uninstalled launcher pro. The lock option is there, but it doesn't change a thing - even with it unlocked, it, still launching the previous app instead of letting me edit the shortcut.
You say you are on rooted stock. Which dock are you talking about? The stock dock or the one that comes with the launcher? Its been a long time since I used stock and cannot picture what you are trying to do.

I have two docks, so to speak - the default Nook one, pictured here (just without that arrow in the middle. NOT the book dock, the black bar at the bottom)
{
"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"
}
And then I have the launcher dock - right now, the ADW launcher dock. Whenever I go to change the short cut on the launcher dock, whether it's ADW or LauncherPro, it kicks me out of the settings window and throws me to the previous program I was using. I tried "unlocking" the dock in the ADW options like suggested, but it still happens.
Ok that thing you have pictured is not a dock, it is the status bar and should always be there even if you have another launcher loaded. The dock is a black bar above that. And on my system you change what is on the adw dock by dragging shortcuts off and on to it. But in order to do that the desktop must be unlocked. Your description of going to a settings window in adw to change shortcuts on the dock does not compute for me.
