[Q] CM7 Launcher pro & scrolling - Legend General

Is there a way to make the launcher pro scrolling speed as smooth as CM6.1? I had a wonderful smooth as water scrolling between homescreens and in the app drawer, now it runs worse than htc sense.... anyone other noticing this issue?

Hey there im running CM7.0 #17 and I got no problems here running launcher pro. Maybey u should reflash the rom and then see if it's smooth?

Have you tried it with CM6.1?

I had the same problem with CM7. There are a number of people reporting weaker performance with LP on CM7. The developer has been working on an update so hopefully it'll solve the problems but there's no eta.
I switched to ADWex for now. When LP's fixed, I'll switch back for the widgets.
EDIT: The LP developer (Fede) just posted the following: I've just finished fixing the 3D drawer for Gingerbread, it will be included in next update. Also added a fix for the graphic performance under Gingerbread. Hopefully this means will see the update soon!

For me the app drawer is super smooth, at least as smooth as in CM6.1. Normally my Legend is OC'ed @825MHz but even @600 its not doing such a bad job (running build 13). I do not use the 3D drawer but I'm guessing none of you are.

I have no smoothness problems on CM7 (nightly #19) I'm not using the 3D drawer though.

Mines running awesome with 2d app drawer and fancy homescreen transitions.

Mine is running at 806MHz. I'm not saying that it makes 2 frames per second, but on CM6.1 launcher pro was EXTREMELY smooth (like >45fps) even at 600MHz. Now it runs just acceptable for my taste only when overclocked, something between 25 and 30fps I think. Not enough reactive for my liking...
(oh, in the case that now someone tells that TV has such a 'low' framerate and we all think that TV programs are smooth, the legend does not have motion blur )

Choppy scrolling

On my vibrant, which I smashed , the launcher+ and launched pro 3rd app draw was super smooth. With the mt4g it is very choppy. Is that a gpu issue and is there any remedy?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
This is one thing I miss from the Vibrant as well. I'm not really sure if it's a GPU thing or a touch screen accuracy/tracking thing. My Nexus (HTC made as you know) is similar to the MT4G with choppier scrolling than the Vibrant... so it might be something similar with all HTC phones. The Vibrant was definitely the smoothest android phone I've seen though... (graphically at least)

I dont have any lag in my app draw. I did with the stock draw though, thats the reason I use launcher pro. That lag can ruin your overall impressions of the phone for sure...maybe its a ROM issue? I am running the unthemed iced ROM.
At any rate hopefully it will get better for you all after a few more optimized ROMs hit.
I was running a live wallpaper. As soon as I turn it off the app draw lag reduced by 95%. Yeah the stock sense draw lags regardless.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
So is your scrolling as smooth as the Vibrant's now? I'm not running a live wallpaper but there's still no way my MT4G scrolling in any menu and the launcher pro app launcher is anywhere near as smooth as the Vibrant was...

Weird... it runs amazingly well for me. Better than ADW, in fact.

Yep been using launcher pro plus and I have no lag.
Like all the others...no lag on teh roxxorz's end.
You guys sure? This is a very widely known issue and happens on both my EVO/CM7 and N1/Stock 2.3.3.
LP + Froyo with the 3D app drawer used to run at what seemed a smooth 50+ fps. Now it's around half that, definitely took a visual hit. The zooming app drawer transition also took a hit. I've tried every kernel/governor and it's the same.

Yep LP + CM7 suck. CM7 Open source...LP closed source platform, Team win win does not like to play with anything closed source... least thats what I was told months ago. I found a way to make ADW ex match my LP set up ... only thing missing is widgets.
I hope LP re write fixes this

LPP runs better IMHO on any rom other than CM7. I've ran Mikfroyo, fresh, warm
I only have one issue with LP on CM7. Whenever I reboot, it lags big time and then LP force closes. After the FC it starts right back up and then it runs flawlessly.

This is my understanding as well, it seems we will have to wait for the developers of LP to optimize for GB. There is a HUGE performance difference between 2.2 & 2.3 w/ LP
Fine for me on latest Nightly, however, you could always just wait for the rewrite update, which should be like any week now...

That's because none of those ROMs are gingerbread, all sense ROMs are still froyo

Mine seems to run fairly smooth, however, I also get the crash when I boot the phone, and it seems to occasionally lag a bit, but after a while it'll fix itself and be smooth once more.
OK so just wanted to give my opinion yes Lp does run smooth on GB but it doesnt feal as smooth by when i am running adw EX. And yes i know that adw ex is already rewritten for GB. But as soon as LP rewrites for GB going straight back to LPP. I just love those widgets. BUt i sure love the fluxed icons theme for adw. Is there a way to install the flux theme to LP?
I just tried adw ex on cm7 and it felt just the same as launcher pro plus on cm7.

CM6 Final vs CM7 RC4

I have been on the cm7 RC for about a month now. However its really not running optimally. I getting tired of the naggs. So I nandroid restored to my backup to cm6. Man what a difference. It's so much smoother. I know cm7 is not complete yet but froyo is still runs very well. Any of you guys feel the samek? Who is still rocking froyo?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Nope. Not here. Still on rc2 and I'd say its stable enough. I didn't think cyanogen would even go this far on rc.
Edit: I've found one unstable thing on my n1. The sense preview lags and choppy.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Yes froyo is miles smoother than cm7 and ginger bread stock. Scrolling apps, lists, webpages, everything is by far smoother on froyo. Makes a tough decision which ROM I want to run:-(
Cm7 rc4 has been as smooth as any 2.2 rom I've tried...now only if battery life was better than 10 hours I'd say it was perfect.

Seriously, I have stayed of CM7 for now, since they haven't resolved the call wonkiness issue. I'll wait for CM7 final, or even 7.1. 6.1 is rock solid and by far the best ROM I have used in a loooong time. NO gingerbread for me yet. Stability first.

i find cm7 RC4 to be extremely good on battery. i can go 12 hours and still be at 60% rather easily. but i just find RC4 laggy and choppy. try loading a tapatalk thread with 30 posts, and scroll that sucker. now try it on froyo, its like a totally different phone, one's smooth, one's chunky as hell.
Battery life sux. But loading huge threads and fora is not a problem at all for me. Everything is snappy and awesome.

People face choppy scrolling because they don't wipe properly when coming to a new rom. Its a know fact that when you switch a rom, you've to wipe atleast 3 times before flashing the new .zip.
This is simply because, 80% of the first wipe doesn't wipe at all. ( both Amon_RA and CWR)
Always wipe 3-4 times and you'll never face the choppiness issue on any CM Roms.

Got tired of plain Android and CM7 wonks and other CM7/GB bugs, and tried Sense-based Froyo. What a difference. Going to stay there until (hopefully) a fully functional Sense GB port will be out.
What's the most stable Sense UI ROM?
eViL's NXSense 1.26. It's the only fully functional Sense ROM, unfortunately.
If you don't mind not having native hotspot capabilities - you can also install Desire HD ports (MM SuperHybrid 1.7 and eViL's 1.1beta).

I've always experienced lag when using adw launcher that comes with CM. Try giving launcher pro a go if you haven't. It made a difference for me.

i use launcher pro exclusively for the last 10 months or so...paid version. it is smoother for sure. but my scroll issues are ont necessarily home screen related. load any tapatalk thread, and it scrolls in chunks. handcent text items in a long list scrolls in chunks.
another bug in cm7, if you have battery text shown in the status bar, once you plug in to charge, after 20 minutes the homescreens become super laggy and skip. this continues until charge is complete, or you unplug. or if you turn off the percent text, scroll returns to normal smooth. i looked at the source code, and this new implementation is different than cm6 battery percent text version. seems using broadcast receivers, etc, or possibly the animation speed, is causing this issue.
i may edit the source to turn off batt percent when plugged in, since that's how cm6 functioned, and see if that fixes it. but i've been lazy pulling down the source.

An interesting development on the laggy app drawer issue

I know I'm not the only one with the problem of the laggy app drawer. When you first open it, it's perfectly smooth. Then, if you leave it alone for a second and use it again, it's extremely slow. It happens on any Acer-based rom, including unrooted stock.
Well, here's an interesting fact: This only happens with a static wallpaper. The issue goes away with a live wallpaper.
Why is this happening? Is it a problem with the launcher or the rom?

Wow, that is interesting.
I have noticed that some people experience this issue, and some of them don't. My app drawer does get slow and laggy, but its more just a bit choppy than anything else. It doesn't really bother me so I never worried about it too much.
To be honest, I hadn't noticed that either. However, based on your description, it sounds like the live wallpaper prevents the cpu governor from underclocking (by virtue of the fact that it's more cpu-intensive, thus requiring the cpu to operate at a higher clock), thus preventing initial lag. Just hazarding a guess, though.
finally a thread about this. Here's what I know. I don't think its the CPU scaling because I've tried to fix this. It still happens even when I force it to 1.4 ghz+ the only rom without this problem is virtuous xoom. And it doenst seem to be the launcher. I've tried swapping them around
stock rooted 3.2 and cant make it happan, using reg walpapper. Did not see on previous versions.
I have seen this on other 3.2 tablets... I assume its a gpu thing or just a bug in 3.2

looks like it is hc 3.2 issue - i wasn't experiencing this on hc 3.1 roms
i was trying as well find out the reason...
only thing what i found out - when the lag is there - killing any of running apss will kill the lag for some seconds as well and the app drawer become smooth again.
tested with quick system info pro.
Its the otherway round for me.......the app drawer lags a lot when i use live wallpaper and lags a little less when i use a static wallpaper....i think it depends on the kind of (live or static) wallpaper used on the device.....

It just always lags for me, but as I said earlier, it isn't enough to piss me off or anything. It's only a slight lag.
Everytime I see lag I just tell myself ics will be open source and one of our fine devs will make this awesome

Curious
I dont have a app drawer that lags but out of curiosity would someone with a laggy app drawer plug in a mouse to their unit and scroll the app drawer using that mouse. See if it makes a difference.
app draw lag
Could you explain app draw lag for me please?

XXLPB and Go Launcher

Ive recently installed both for first time and am getting some lag whilst using touch screen. Im trying to work out if its go launcher or this ics rom or a recently installed app. Any existing go launcher users would welcome your feedback.

The LPB kernel has funky scrolling; you'll have to adjust the way you swipe, or get used to it.
It's slow on all Samsung leaked ICS ROMS.
I'm using it on andyX 5.2 and is very smooth. Rarely some slight cogging.

Have to agree with the above. I installed the stock xxlpb and I found it almost sticky like when scrolling and it was near impossible when the phone was flat on it's back. I then installed AndyX 5.2 today and it's near perfect so far.

Same here.
Using GoLauncher on 2.3.x for ages, no lag issues.
Though, IIRC it's on the S2 ICS that while TW has no lag, any other launcher will experience lag while scolling the homescreen.
No idea why, LBP didn't work at all for me, so I can't really try, I'm hoping for the next leak to come soon.
Flash the LP6 kernel to LPB to resolve the scrolling issue.
