Android 2.1 & Timescape as home by default

I have finally updated to Android 2.1 but i cannot find the option under Timescape that sets it as default for home. In 1.6 there was an option to do that which changed the home screen to integrate Timescape with the desktop. Does anyone know how to enable this feature in 2.1?
They removed it in 2.1, i think becouse the Performance it was a bit laggy sometimes.

i dont want use jit, any solution??
Hi,
I don't seem to have any problems when using live wallpapers.
But there are some that request more system resources then others.
Which launcher are you using ?
The stock one, ADW, ...
Have you tried other LW's ?
What you also can do, is install a program that monitors you're free RAM. (Mini info is nice)
Perhaps you have to many widgets or programs that eat away you're memory and cause the lag.

[Q] Timescape & music player widget on other launchers

Hi, I have Wolfbreak's GB installed on my x10. Is it possible to make the timescape and music player widgets available to other launchers as well? I can only see these widgets on SE's ARC launcher, but not on other launchers. Really love these new widgets from SE. Thanks in advance
Any developers out there care to comment? I did a little search around this forum and found that people have asked this question before, but have yet to receive an answer. I'm not looking for a solution now, just wondering if its possible. Thanks.
Hi,
Im in the same boat as you. I want to use these widget on other launchers but can only see in Sony Launcher.
Anyone know how to add the widget on other launchers?
Thanks
I know that it's a missing when some widgets can't be use on another launcher but I think this problem caused by widgets' settings. Some widgets are set up just to run with Stock launcher only.
it doesnt work like that ..i think we need to modify the framework accordingly for installing the widgets on other launchers ...
Hope its right
thnk me if it helped
Well, is there any other widgets/apps that will provide similar functionality?
Also I think many ppl would appreasiate it if someone would modify the timescape widget to work with other launchers, I do think SE is onto something there, one glance and I'm up to date...
;-)
Thanks
SE lock their widgets so they cannot be installed on any other launcher, it really annoys me becuase the stock launcher is useless (Not being able to even add more homescreens is a joke)
I would like to know if anone is actively working on this problem as quite a few people are asking about it.
Now that timescape is becoming more user friendly...with more extensions for more content....I would really like to have the widget but I refuse to use the poor excuse of the stock launcher.
This would be a good project to work on....lets see if anyone is listening

I dedicated some time previously to working on it to no avail. I BELIEVE its coded in the smali code, but if its forced to run on other launchers it doesn't work properly:
Timescape can't scroll [well can scroll but you can't see] and MIGHT take you to the wrong message/facebookthing/w.e. and only refreshes when you reboot...
Music player the little icon thing [thumbnail] does not change and the thing bar does not actively move [the time bar] and the buttons are glitchy
you name it, errors come. I gave up :L

Same issue bro. I use ADW Launcher EX... I want those features...
Would be great to have the freedom of using timescape on other launchers. the only reason i still have the stock launcher is because timescape and the music widget only work on it I guess it was a trap that was well thought of
I think pheel is the only one to have made some advancement on this project (that too, on my request ) but it faded out 2-3 months back. Hope with the senior devs (yes, greg, bring 'em on!) we can see some progress!!

Xperia Ray default theme and app drawer

Hello all.
I recently bought Xperia Ray. So far I feel good about my purchase, but there is a minor problem, for which I cant find a solution.
I really like the looks and performance of Ray's default theme (its called Timescape if I Googled ir right). The problem is, that Timescape's appdrawer dont have tabs on top of it (I mean the menu with 3 options - All, Recent, Running). is it possible to add this menu to the default theme's appdrawer?
use go launcher instead
I am using GO Launcher at the moment.
Anyway, I kinda prefer the default one, so, if there is any chance of making default appdrawer to show thos tabs, i would really appreaciate any help.
EDIT: The main reason, why I like Timescape, is because of the widgets - music playing widget and Pic&Video preview widget. If I use GO Launcher, I must use additional widgets like Winamp, which, tbh, I dont like.
AFAIK, that would require a lot of developer skills to add those tabs to default launcher
and its not called timescape, its called sony ericsson home
timescape is just an application from SE
I see. Thanks for the answer, will try to tweak GO Launcher so I actually start to like it...

[Q] Rotation for homescreens and appdrawer

This question goes out to all the theme builders and rom builders and ofcourse the home pro's.
My question is simple, its there anyway possible that you can get rotation for youre homescreen and appdrawer with a launcher that is homemade?
I have not done the launcher and well i dont think the developer has the time either. Everyone wants him to put in the rotation on his rom but i only want it on the launcher cause thats the only thing i have installed atm.
I know there is launcher that supports this but i dont like them that much, launcher pro is good but i hate the appdrawer on that launcher. And Go launcher has also i bad appdrawer.
And the launcher im referring to is SPlauncher , it can be downloaded here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457061.
So is there anyone out there who has the free time and would like to help me if this is possible?
Thx in advance.
And once again i do not own this launcher it is made by dragon7780.
