dxTop Pro: Free App of the Day / Go Launcher killer? - Epic 4G General

http://androidspin.com/2011/08/30/amazonappstore-free-app-of-the-day-%E2%80%93-dxtop-pro-home-alternative/
Wow. I had not heard too much about this home replacement, but it is really different enough from the pack (LPP, ADW, Go) that I figured i'd laud it here.

I was going to completely pass on this until I saw this from you. Thanks for the heads up, the screens of it look pretty cool.

Strange, in Android Market is free and has good reviews. In Amazon Marketplace its $2.99 (free for today) and has awful reviews...
Kind of conflicted here.

I seem to notice many of the 'free apps of the day' have bad reviews because people CONSTANTLY complain about permissions. Always asking "why does this need SD card access, why does this need GPS" blah blah blah. Then they rate it 1 star.
It's rediculous.

Wasn't it the first home replacement ?

DX Top is home replacement app and not a launcher like GO.
Its nice but it eats up ram and cpu and battery.I used to use app like these when i first started messing with android but now i know better.
But good lookin for this post,we do need posts like these that promote good apps but no spam.

Yeah, it feels bulkier than go, but I figure I'll try for a while. Was getting a bit bored.
I saw it's been around a bit, all the themes and then threads were circa 2009!
Is there a difference between a home replacement and a launcher? (App drawer, screens, etc)

No,launchers(Pro launcher,Zeam,GO,etc..) are just what the name implies.They are light and don't have big imprint on system resources.
Now Home Replacements while similar to Launchers use a lot more ram,cpu and battery.
Home Replacement is not just a launcher but complete android overhaul kinda like Sense,Twiz,Breeze UI etc..
I don't discourage people from using them because they offer a lot of visual eye candy but will drain your battery faster(in most cases).With GO Launcher you can get nice visual effects and good performance-i tried almost all of them and GO is the best i found,Zeam is nice too but don't look as good.
For those that wanna try Home Replacements there is Panda Home,Home++,LG Home,Metro UI just to name a few.
Here is a good article on Launchers/HM Replacements http://kschang.hubpages.com/hub/Droid-Home-Replacement-App-Comparison it has almost all Launchers and home Replacements.

If you bored with Epic try SPB Shell you will feel like you have a new phone.Wave Launcher is another unique one it mimics WebOS.

Where did you learn that "Home Replacements" are different than "Launchers?"
I'm not arguing that you're wrong, but what I've read contradicts whatyou say, so i'd like to be sure I know what I'm talking about

You may be right idk,but to me there is a difference between two because apps like Dxtop and Panda Home do more things than launchers but with GO,Pro and ADW that line seams to be blurring.

[Q] What do you think of the new market?

To me it just seems much more cluttered and slower.
The slower part really doesn't bother me as much as the cluttering.
Plus the "carousal" hangs too low allowing only a few apps to be seen at a time.
I expected better functionality not a "prettier" design.

The design really is awful. Some complaints:
1. Why isn't the full description shown? It's one of the most important things! And you only get maybe 12 words by default. Useless and annoying to be forced to hit "more" every single time.
2. The labels are just as annoying. Single words without a description would have been fine, we end up seeing more text about what a generic UI labels means instead of what the actual app you are looking at does.
3. Bring back the old tabs. Way too much information at one time. As you said it's cluttered.
4. Again like you said, the top carousel occupies up to 1/2 of the screen. Why?
That said, the new Market looks A LOT better in landscape. Still has a lot of the same problems but at least the huge space that the carousel takes up is a little more forgiving in that orientation.

So, others think the new market is flawed but their opinions are "stupid and crappy" and if they don't like the new market, they should "code one themselves" and "stop whining"?
However, you like the new market just fine and, of course, your opinion is not "stupid and crappy" at all.
Got it.
There are both good and bad on the new market. It seems like they rushed it out instead of trying it for a while to see if they even like it. I agree that not being able to see the whole description without hitting the more button is bad. The more button should be used to view the other less useful stuff at the bottom of the page like the developers email and similar products and not the product description that you are trying to view. I do like the new look, but do agree the carousel hangs too low and does not allow for more apps to be viewed on the screen. I do like the looks of the new market, but they could have done some things differently to make it a better user experience. I know that this is what it is and I will deal with it, but I do have the right to complain about the things I don't like. I will deal with because I have to, but I feel that a lot of folks are going to complain and that another update fixing some of these issues is imminent.

There are a lot of devs that are royally pissed off about this update, people outside the US were having almost all of their orders declined and in turn losing money.
how do u install the new market
I already dumped it myself. To much going on. Half the screen is gone by the carousel. It will prolly grow on us once we are all forced to have it.

Change is good? There's good change and then there's bad change. I usually love any change - I don't love this.
Dear Google,
As much as I like change, this new market design is simply atrocious. Nobody is going to use the scrolling view on top, and it takes 2/3 of the screen. You tried to fit a square in a circle, and did so poorly. It reminds me of a xbox marketplace; just a bunch of graphic throw up. Now, I like having everything on one page, but why minimize the description? The most important part of buying and or upgrading is the description.
On top of that, the placement and order of the pages feel like a maze to me. There is no indication how far back you can go in the application without being sent to your home screen.
While I am sure this app will serve its purpose, I really do expect more from Google come next market update.
From,
A concerned Android enthusiast
How do i get it? i still have the old one...

As someone who has owned an iPhone4, only thing better is the camera, and I guess the screen, but I don't really care about that.. Show them ANYTHING ELSE and they will be impressed.
Also, I bet when the Evo was announced, the person making the announcement was able to get a data connection on their phone.

.... why doesn't the iphone have widgets? such a fail. Thats the biggest thing its lacking imho.
Hm... Widgets. 'Nuff said. I'd like to see an iPhone search the App Store from the phone's homescreen. Or for that matter do anything besides open its programs. I would have thought the big clock and weather widget on the main Sense screen would be enough, that was honestly part of why I chose the Evo over the Epic. (that and a dislike of Samsung after my horrible experiences with my last phone)
edit: yes, show him custom ROM loading and backup, plus how easy it is compared to the iPhone.
steve jobs.. dont believe in widgets!
Wireless tether, hulu, and Angry Birds. When I first got my evo the Iphone people would eventually default back to "I got angry birds" since that was the only thing their phone could do that mine couldn't. I suppose you could show them qik even though it sucks, it is definatly going to be the future of phone callls.

Pre 3 seems like a winner

WebOS simply bests android and ios in usability. Hopefully the crap that was wrong with the OS was hopefully solved. The way multitasking is handled is best among the mobile OS' that alone sets it above the others. Androids great and has a huge following. Same for IOS just too constricted. I dont need yall to agree either.
Anyway its my kind of OS.
I don't think I can agree with that. The new webos may be able to compete when its launched.. truthfully I've got my hopes a little raised but meh.
Let's just hope its not another disaster.

While I am not particularly interested in WebOs at this point I will say this...tablet is ok..Pre3 is nothing impressive..
I mean they are going with the same cpu as the mytouch 4g over-clocked to 1.4ghz and wait till summer to release it? thats not really going to stand out much against all the dual core phones...
If they released it now it would have been pretty good..by summer its a yawn...

lol.. well.. only more than 3% of the android apps have to be "good" in order to beat palms 100% of 5,000+.
but thats not the point. no one cares about # of apps (except poor W7 Phones).
seriously, no body switched phones for # of "apps". cough apple, cough, if 3% of Apple's App Store (+400,000) was useful, there would be over 12,000 useful iphone apps, and no one wants 12,000 apps on their phones.
but, i actually think the Pre will do good because Android is a POS getting their act together (we have to wait until 2.3 or 3.0+ for native Android video chat? are you sh*ting me?, wake up Mountain View, CA, you might be late, but you still missed the boat.). We have 4G (WiMax/LTE/etc), we want video chat on our phones, full web browsing, corporate email/calendars, and other standard features, and we want it to work, period.
The HP Pre 3 will hit a sweet spot of phone features vs. carrier support vs. developers. It probably will not be popular (overall), but, if you needed it, I'm sure it will work.
after that, its anyones game... blackberry, android, webos, ios, w7.. (+/- 3 years from now.)

McDonalds sells billions of burgers every year worldwide. Does that make them the best hamburgers in the world? Hardly.
Not to mention, how many of those apps are not actually apps? For example search for adw launcher, you get 100 themes or more... they're not functional apps.
posted from my nook color using the official xda app

Made a discovery about myself.

Hello
Well if you guys remember I had a thread saying I had a bunch of apps.
Well I have a problem.
I have on Titanium 309 user apps backed up
I hate how it takes like an hour to restore.
Okay here's my problem I use like 1/10 of them and that's it. All the others are apps that are games that I keep because I like showing off my phone and having a bunch of apps and such to my friends and don't want them to say I have a boring phone. The other reason is because I "think they will be necessary at one point" but that point hasn't come. For example I have shazam pro and haven't used it.
I have asphalt 5 and my friend is the only one that uses it.
Almost all my friends have android phones and while most of them have like 2 games compared to like the 150 I have they are happy and don't care. I do?
I would love to use the adwex vertical new drawer but my friends will say "its so gay it looks like an iphone" so I switched to launcherpro.
Its almost like I have all those things to please everyone else but im not pleased with that
So should I delete all my backups and just download apps I use and not care if I don't have cool games and things? Since I don't use them?

If you have room stay with them. I myself have delete the game(s) as soon as im finished with it.

We should start an "appaholic" support group. I have had this problem for over 2 yrs now. The nice thing about my G1 towards the end was I couldn't install too many apps even with app2sd it would run out of space around 75 or so. Now I clean my phone every 6 weeks and I keep it that way for about a week. But then I fall off the wagon again. I just can't stop so I guess I'll just keep cleaning and reloading because new apps keep coming out and I just gotta have em.
Its comforting to know I am not alone......

OP, once you have that crap off your phone, ADW EX setup properly and a handful of really good apps... your phone will both look better and run so much better.
If you need some docks/icons there is a good thread in the android theme section (not the vibrant section). I use the Vertical New app drawer and random transitions. Beautiful.

Really guys?
- Purpose of this tread is not to complain about LWP. That's why its called "Atrix Trade In" and asks "what is the best way to go about trading in an Atrix." For purposes of this thread, it doesn't matter WHY I'm doing, just the best WAY to do it.
- I know standard ways of selling a phone. Just like you can sell anything else. I'm not an idiot. That's why I asked for the BEST way to sell the phone i.e. some exchange that I may not know about where people exchange devices etc, or potential some return program through AT&T that I may not know about.
No need to be complete d$&#s.

Really?? Sure sounds like you're one. Selling a great phone like this just because you cant figure out how to use lwp properly.(and its not that big of a deal anyway)

Then why did you put the LWP part in your OP in caps?
Either your trolling, or you just don't get it?...

I'm so confused. I'm using my Atrix right now, and I've definitely got a live wallpaper going right now.
Also, if you're really gonna sell it, Craigslist. I've sold a couple smart phones and plenty of music gear within 24 hours or less for a good price. Just make sure to put up pictures and your phone number, and if possible have original packaging and proof of purchase.

What the op means is he wants gingerbread, gingerbread brought along hardware acceleration. Hes going to trade his new phone because there is a tiny amount of lag in the launcher while using an ornamental wall paper. Well I am a ****, so I'll go ahead and say it, you are an impatient moron. You are asking a developer website how to trade a phone... GOOGLE IT.. on your google phone.

Well at least you'll admit it - that's the first step, I guess. Moron? Do you even know what the word moron means? Apparently I have "mild retardation" because I asked how to sell a phone. That makes sense.
And this is General Atrix forum. Development questions go in the Development forum. XDA, true, began as a development forum but has obviously expanded. Check the rest of the threads in this General Atrix forum - most have nothing to do with development. If anyone has mild retardation, it seems to be you, because apparently you can't read (note: illiteracy is a sign of mental retardation).
Thanks for the tip on Craig's list! I'll check that out. The lag comes in when you use a launcher with animations with LWP. LWP works, just not well enough for my tastes (I bought "the most powerful smart phone in the world" so things like this wouldn't be an issue).
The OP isn't really looking for help. This is just an attempt to take a jab at the Atrix veiled as a request for assistance.
At least that's my take on it.

You're probably partially right, just bc I am pretty frustrated - but I was really wondering.

You had to google, that, didn't you?
Also, illiteracy has nothing to do with mental retardation, at all.

This site is called xda developers just so you know, and this is the general section... Not the useless section. (note: thats Q/A )
The atrix general forum is filled with confused people asking for help and giving advice. There are questions about the atrix in mexico, how to enable 1080p recording, how to get better battery life. Then there is you... Asking how to trade the atrix. Just say it to yourself... How to trade the atrix...
I'm glad your just discovering the interwebz but scooby doo is less confused then you.

Mine runs SPB Shell and live wall paper without a hint of lag or a hicup of any sort.
Simply put....from your short ass first post it looks like this is the biggest problem you have with your atrix.
Just sayin'.

Side track.. That's cool... I think spb mobile is pretty badass. I thought with all that hardware acceleration it would be horrible on battery but it used about as much as adw which is practically nothing.
Goes to show op, worlds most powerful phone is pretty f*cking powerful. Let the software mature, or jump ship the nexus is a great phone. Just whatever you do don't tell us
