Launcherpro is the only app on my phone that keeps force closing.. I keep getting launcherpro.xxx.acore or something like that saying it has force closed even when I'm not on the home screen. I could be on xda and it will close. Anybody else having this issue

I haven't had an issue with it yet. Actually I haven't seen it crash once.
Perhaps another application is having a conflict with it? or try reinstalling.

second to you, never experienced fc from launcher pro
It has never happened on my G2, however I have noticed that it force closes a lot on my friends G2...

I am using LauncherPro on a G2. It crashed on me once. But that was after I had set up 5 homescreens and then changed it to 4. It crashed, and then restarted. It has been okay since then.
Yeah I'm using 7 homescreens on launcherpro maybe its too much I also use a ton of widgets

I had the same problem constant fc's i eventually uninstalled and started using adw. I'll switch back eventually because I had the plus edition
So I finally found out the problem, I installed an older version of launcherpro and all my problems are gone

I ended up clearing all the data for launcherpro and restoring to defaults and then looking at my nexus and reordering again and it works perfectly now
Try a different version of Launcher PRO.
The version I'm using has been great. Check my signature.
Launcher pro plus works great on mine.

hi, im perm rooted with s=off and a clockwork recovery, when ever i default a launcher with the app "home switcher" it never sticks. i was wondering if anyone else has the same problem
Home switcher says right in the download that it doesn't work with Froyo... however, it does work with some ROMS better than others as I've been playing with on my Evo for about 4 months. Sometimes it acts just like you describe. Sometimes it lets me actually stick with a default. Blame the author... he isn't updating it.
Oh wow thanks I didn't even see that lol but yeah I switched to homeshack and it works!

Actually, it does work with Froyo even though it says that in the Market (that's probably the official line, so we can't ***** about it). If you read comments & online there are plenty confirmed working w/Froyo.
I had it on my MT4G and it worked fine until I permrooted w/S=OFF. Now any time the phone restarts I have to choose the default launcher again.
So, OP is correct, but since it's officially not supported... Glad you found an alternative.
oops didnt refresh page before posting
Fyi, I've tried Home Manager and it doesn't stick either.
Sent from my ROOTED HTC Glacier using XDA App
Home Switcher has an app made for Froyo (HomeSwitcher for Froyo) I use it and it works very good. There is an added step to take before it sticks but it never fails.
Why do you need a home switcher? Its not hard to change defaults through your settings.

Anyone running this combo able to help me or with a small experiment?
When you reboot, as soon as you get back to the swipe to unlock screen swipe and sit at your home screen. Do you flash to an all black screen for a few seconds? I think I have isolated this to L Pro, doesn't do it on stock launcher, but want to see if its just me.
It looks an awful lot like what visionary would do when you had it set to root at boot.
Anyway, thanks for your input.

I've had the same problem using LauncherPro. I'd get a black screen that I had to sit and wait until it fixed itself on boot if I unlocked the screen too fast. There was also instances where the quick reply from chompSMS would cause the launcher to have a black screen. Navigation was difficult because I couldn't see anything. I eventually stopped using LauncherPro and went back to stock.
Don't get me wrong, LauncherPro is an amazing launcher alternative and this wasn't the reason why I stopped using it.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Thanks a ton. Glad to know its not just me. Was contemplating flashing back to stock and re-rooting to try to correct it. I can live with it I suppose, just really love the calendar widget. Hopefully it will be corrected in a patch.

I've noticed this as well. But when in a program the accelerometer is fine but on the homescreen there is a slight lag.

Anyone having issues with widgets loading in 2.3.3?
My twitter widget will not load. Even stranger, I cannot add any applications to any screen. Very odd.
I'm running on ADW. Is ADW the real issue?

All my widgets disappeared and I had to place them back...

how did you get them back? a long press does nothing for me now!

Only problem I am having with 2.3.3 is the screen colors. It's terrible, definitely gotta get use to it..
Widgets work fine. Try a reboot or a battery pull.
Works fine here, using LauncherPro Plus.
I chose to clear the dalvik cache before rebooting, after applying the update. Perhaps that helped me?

Haven't used ADW in a long time but isn't there an option to lock your screens? Which in turn wouldn't allow you to modify anything.
Press menu and check that out.
no problem here. all widgets work fine and i didnt have to mess with them at all.
This happened to me today but I'm still on 2.3.2...

This. From the home screen you can also press:
Menu>Add
To add a widget.
Menu>More>Unlock Desktop
To unlock the home screen if locked.

The few widgets I use are working the same. Only problem I ran into was having to reinstall Swype.
Running on stock android.
Not sure how it got locked, but the unlock feature did the trick.

Get rid of Sense launcher. Use LauncherPro, ADW or GoLauncher.

I'm on CM7 so I don't have Sense anymore. When I did I would get that loading screen frequently. Not sure about the Desire port fixing it but if you haven't tried it yet and like Sense then you should def give it a try.

I just flashed desire z rom, the problem is gone. I am glad because I love sense, and its got lots of compatibility and skins and bhtc account. Its amazing but stock is still bad

That's not really a solution.

I disagree it's not a solution, it is a possible solution. It's a round about way of saying that the launcher itself is slow loading, and that a different launcher will alleviate the problem.
You're assuming the launcher is slow loading for other reasons then that it just is. It certainly won't hurt to try a different launcher and see if that fixes the issue the OP has.
I am an app dev, not a hacker but i noticed between dz software and shift software, the same loading screen happens whenever you change themes. So many htc took a shorcut and made the launcher occasionally reload the sense "theme" i would not know how to fix this in the stock roms but, thats information i do have.
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk
Could be that you just have too many widgets on your homescreen that it reloads every time you press home.

I run tsf shell and next launcher and adw ex 99 percent of the time though so far I've only run tsf and next on my g2. I have experienced the exact same issue while running both launchers. I'm rooted and have over 30 apps frozen including the stock launcher.
I'm having an issue where after running my phone for awhile my launcher will lock up and refuse to do anything, or it will run so slow that it's impossible to use. The strange thing is I can still drag the notification window down and go into settings and do whatever in there and everything functions fine and is smooth, so I know there's some issue with the launcher. A reboot fixes it for awhile but it has come back several times. Another weird thing to note is the launcher isn't force closing. It will continue to run and never force close.
This thread isn't about me having a buggy phone and need to return it (though anything is possible) but it's about me thinking I have caused this issue myself by freezing something I shouldn't and now I'm getting this. At first I thought it was tsf shell so I downloaded next and froze tsf and it happened on next so I know it's not the launcher itself. Based on my thinking that it's something I froze I have since defrosted the LG home app and after a couple hours have yet to have the issue. But I'll keep this thread posted on what happens.
If someone else has had this and fixed it please post...if you are having it and didn't know what to do and you froze LG home try defrosting it and post your results. I know from experience that sometimes these phones on the stock roms can bug out when you freeze certain stock apps so I'm trying to troubleshoot. Thanks.

Sounds like you froze the stock launcher and the phone bugged out. Just leave the stock launcher unfroze.. No telling how many lg system enhancements depend on it.
As for me, I never freeze apps. I just remove them using root explorer. Usually isn't hard to find out what apps are safe or unsafe to remove.

I also think it's a UI function that uses the launcher. I have not used a shell and a launcher together before but I'll try it later w/out freezing. The LG launcher.
