im not sure i can help, but im not really understanding the issue.
are you saying, it drops the shortcut in a different location than you place it with your finger?
The white dot is my finger the light blue is where its going to be placed... Its fine when its a single icon but when trying to place a a 2x2 or larger its very hard to get it placed anywhere on the home screen

sorry, but im not sure i can even make an educated guess on that one.
it would seem to have something to do with the launcher if i had to guess, possibly your grid settings.
it either thinks there isnt enough room or there actually isnt, because of how the grid is set, and the apps you already have there.
if you cant work it out by moving some apps around to make room, or adjusting the grid settings (may not be possible on all launchers),
im not sure what else you could try.
That was my thoughts on it as well ...its the stock moto launcher... Its not doing it on nova or Apex(not wanting to lose the circle widget tho) ... I modified the apk to a 4x5 grid and minimized the dock from 82dip to 58dip which helped some allowed me to at least drop a 2x2... Thank you kindly for your input

Noticed on the Xperia x10 site that japan have realsed a new lock screen and theme.
Link below
http://www.xperiax10.net/2010/10/03...her-brings-live-wallpaper-to-your-xperia-x10/
Using it now on my x10. Im really enjoying it so far. Think I will keep it for a while.
Hmm not sure about it cant u change the live wallpaper? And end up with double lockscreens. Might have a go at editing the apk images dont like the icons

I've tested it.
Here'sd the app : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V44GIZEX
I like the black theme... but the lockscreen is laggy sometimes and the animation background freeze sometimes.
EDIT : Need to reboot once after the installation. Now there is no lag. I've also noticed a related post there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797660
Yes.
and this has been posted already yesterday, in the XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps.
tested it and I like it more than the default theme. But it is kind of difficult to unlock using just one hand. Its definitely something you can get used to but I kind of miss the dockng bar of adw launcher.

It's not that difficult, actually...
You'lll just have to drag te blob upwards. Don't have to touch the lock icon.
But the thing that I don't like about it is that I can't change wallpapers. I like the screen lock part, but I wanna use my own wallpaper =/
its the start maybe in the next version it will have the possibility to change wallpapers and other settings
I like the lock screen but I don't see myself using the launcher much... it cuts many widgets off... and I love my widgets
i like this lay out
cool stuff
But the lock screen lags, so i'm turning it off for now.
so, the lock screen can by used separately?
The best part about this launcher is if you are in the Application Drawer, click the little wrench in the right corner, and you can uninstall programs right there. Awesome.
I wonder if default lockscreen app can be overwritten directly in the file system...
perhaps this way would prevent old lockscreen "flashing"
ambient time
who uses it? if so is it draining your battery way too fast?
I've seen on mine that even when charging it the battery is being drained
thanks for the comments
Regards battery draining, no.
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
this is awesome but idk why when charging my phone and using this them the battery seems to be drained faster instead of charging
anyone has the same problem?
For me, so far ok. Not much difference and I have turn off the ambient time screen lock.
But notice that it will slow down a bit when you finish a call as it will load the ambient time home screen for a while without the icons then go back to lock screen.

Galaxy SIII is a fantastic phone, but I seem to be constantly let down by touchwiz stuff. My idea for this thread is a big, long list of annoyances and suggestions for fixing them.
For example, an annoyance: TW doesn't support sorting the app drawer by name, you have to manually sort things and that goes slow. You would have thought they'd have a better way to manage the app drawer by now, but alas, no.
Solution: AppZorter Lite is a free solution that will sort your app drawer for you. Bonus: I like a nice empty app list, so I've gotten it hidden (one thing TW does do) and just launch it from the store when I need to.
Two that I haven't solved:
1) Facebook has filled my contact list with a huge number of people I don't care about, seems to have ignored the "only sync with existing contacts". Removing facebook users is a process: hold on the user, press delete, confirm that it isn't actually deleting.
2) The default MMS app seems to send (or displays?) all picture messages as slideshows. Super lame. Is there any way to turn this out without installing a 3rd party app?
App drawer, menu, view type, alphabetical grid or list.

Trying out Pansi SMS as my sms solution, though it's a bummer that it doesn't interact with the lock screen like the native one.

The app drawer thing is why I didn't use the TW launcher on the Epic. At least now I can install Apex or Nova in the system/app folder.
Network errors, Sprints fault, not the phone.
Oh, I asked that S-Voice b*tch where she was from and she didn't understand. Guess that's what I get for hitting on my phone. :crying:

TouchWiz in general is just a piece of ****. Still running the Epic here and I cursed my phone every day until I put launcher pro on it and it was manageable. Didn't actually like my phone until I rooted and got CM9. My wife is getting the S3 upgrade but CM9 will go on as soon as it is available. She knows how ****ty TW is.

Pissed that BB had no accessories when i picked up the phone and i now have 2 micro scratches on the screen from screen sliding along a piece of paper on my desk at work.
I hate the purple/baby blue rim around the phone.
Waiting for a black TPU bumper and black metal battery cover replacement from china to resolve these issues.
Outside of that- much more impressed with the form factor than that of the EVO LTE which i traded for it. The S3 is very comfortable in hand.
Phone is way too slippery!
BTW- Touchwiz sucks! i installed Apex while waiting to check out at BestBuy.

So, is there a way to make the nav bar transparent without removing it? I want to stay on the stock rom (but I am unlocked/rooted).

I know it's possible on CM based ROMs and AOKP has an autohide feature for the nav bar. However, I'm not sure on the stock ROM. You might want to check out Xposed Framework. It can be used to theme a stock ROM, without having to mess with .apk's or anything. I know that are a lot of customization modules out there for Xposed.
Somewhere in your System Settings, depending on what ROM you are using, you should find a setting called Navigation Bar. Click setting and there should be towards the bottom of the screen an option for Navigation Bar Transparency, Turn percentage down to zero. Also if you choose to use PIE Controls your Navigation Bar defaults to hidden and then when you toggle back to Navigation Bar or close PIE, your Navigation Bar appears.

Yeah, mine is very noticeable when playing a video or something where the buttons are not on the screen.
Man, the ones in the Verizon stores when I got mine in February had the circle widgets burned in really bad.
These burns don't even make sense. Old CRTs would burn because they're shooting electrons at the glass and if they sat long enough shooting and the same place they would literally burn into the glass. LEDs are just lights, I really want to know why it does this.

If I recall, this burn in is not really burn-in per say, but that the back-lights behind the pixels are burning and decaying at different rates. Since the buttons are always white, and the area around them always dimmed, the 'burn-in' is a lot more noticeable.

It is very slight in my device. I can see where the screen has a slightly a cooler tint where the nav bar and notification bar is at. It is easiest to see when you are looking at a completely white screen.

No, but you might be using some kind of home proxy, i.e one that launches home from inside an app when you hit the home button.

Once you download and launch nova. There will be some widgets on your home screen prompting you to restore your layout from either a previous nova backup or a different launcher. Just create yourself a backup within go launcher (if it has that option) then restore from that backup. It may not restore everything depending on widgets you have currently but you won't have to start from scratch. I use nothing but nova prime.
