Go Launcher EX 2.1

Hi,
Anybody using Go Launcher EX 2.1 here?
A colleague mentionned it to me and I tried it out, looks very good, a lot of options from Launcherpro are in it and homescreens can be easily moved around.
However I have some bugs, and I was wondering if anyone else has these?
- when I drag & drop a shortcut, it just gets duplicated
- when I create a folder I can't drag anything in it, shortcut just gets duplicated on the homescreen, not even in the folder
- when I take a backup and restore it again, all my screens are empty. Widgets and icons are gone, only dock settings and app drawer settings are restored
cheers

Install v2.2...

there's no 2.2 on the market...
funny thing is that I uninstalled and reinstalled the 2.1 again (2nd time) and this time everything works
Unless it's a new version but then the version info is wrong because it says still 2.1, both on market and application itself
Cheers

I used to, but went back to LeuncherPro because of lots of lags and tweaks.

HTC Desire HD Default Icons

Hi I have dhd but when installing apps then transfering them to the memory card, when having custom folders on the home screen restaring the device causes the icons to show as the standard default android icons. Is there anyway of making keep the original app ones?
Thanks

I have the same issue as well.

I have found a solution that although it works for me is perhaps not ideal.
If you change the 'skin' to something other than the one you are using, this seems to sort the problem. You can then change back to your original.
The only other thing I had to do was to then change the wallpaper back to what I wanted, but this does not make any difference to the solution.
Let me know if this works for you.

when you transfer apps to sd card..u get those icons because apps need to load from the card then.. Give a min or 2.. Then theyvr bsck to normal

This issue is not that simple. Even if the phone is on for days, the icons don't change. Even selecting them to open the app makes no difference.
The only way I can resolve this issue is to do what I said in my previous post. I have also found that if HTC Sense has to force close and restart, then the correct app icons appear.

good tip changing skin..

Changing the skin works..

Sorting your applications on SGS2

Hey everybody
just got to play with my new sgs2 all day, and noticed whenever i sort my application in folders, and reboot the phone.. my application will go randomly so its not sorted anymore.. either its a bug or ?
but the folders that i put out on the homescreen is still as it was before, but going in the application menu, everything is just random after a reboot. really change..
so how do u guys sort your stuff, i do it by games, appz, tools & widgets, navigation and Samsung(bloatware
application menu just look like a mess

I haven't experienced such problem. My apps stay exactly as I organise them.

Menus sorted in order stay as they are after a reboot .
But installing new apps may move some around .

Try "touchwiz appsorter" from market.

One of the weaker points of touchwiz, the seemingly random placement of apps in the appdraer, along with the horizontal scrolling of the app drawer (who thought of that, seriously?), there is an app in the market called touchwiz app sorter which sorts the apps but for a real nice launcher try go launcher, it sorts apps, in the tray, by running apps, alphabetically etc etc

I quite like dxtoplite it also organizes alphabetically or by genre or running etc and u get 5 home screens in a diamond formation really nice interface too

mine does sometimes the same that OP's gs2 does. it flips all the apps in the folder vice versa, eg superuser was first in the folder and now its in last place there.
happens randomly after reboot and im running rooted KF1

glade to hear im not the only one experiencing this!
i give op on sorting in the app drawer, so im just gonna use home screen from now on..
something weird i also notice is, if u have app drawer to show as list, and drag one of the items out to homescreen, it sometimes drag a totally different app lol

Well there's plenty of apps available in the play store, and most of them come with widgets. Try a few of them, you'll probably like them!

Already had a look , and I am not a fan of them . Not interested in third party apps , I want the stock S4 weather widget back that is why I posted this thread to figure out what has happened to it and get it back .

This happened to me, the weather widget disappeared, i was using new zealands metservice one and was stumpped for days....
So, have you recently moved it to sdcard in the application manager recently as that was what i did and it disappeared, when i moved it back device storage and then the widget was back.

THANK YOU ! you have led me in the right direction , turns out I have disabled the widget in the applications section and have completely forgot about it . Also the weather widget only works with the TouchWiz not the Nova Launcher .
