I hope that this really gets release soon. But I hate how it has trebuchet. Why? It look and functions good on phones but from the video it looks like it is not good. Idk y but still....also...how HP made the screen in being the crappy iPad size, ics might not look as good, but hey...ICS ON HP TOUCHPAD!

trebuchet is the stock launcher for CM9.
It was built by the CM team specifically for CM9.
It looks just like the stock ICS launcher so idk what you're complaining about.

His point was somewhat misdirected (at Trebuchet) when in fact it's how Google does ICS for tablets. They dont feel it's necessary to have an app-launch bar, notification pulldown, etc. I totally agree with this decision. A tablet experience should be different, but still with the same overall feel. I think it's perfect.

if that's what he meant, then he's missed the point of ICS
Woah, nice.. Excited!
Why does every Android device I've ever used seem to lag opening the app drawer? I've tried almost every 3rd-party launcher, lots of custom and stock roms and phones and tablets, and they all seem to hiccup, at least a little, opening the app drawer. I only comment because I noticed it in the CM9 video for the 10.1 and the Touchpad, despite both having excellent hardware.
So strange, I had hoped ICS would put this to rest once and for all.
(This, of course, does not in any way speak to this team's efforts to bring ICS to the Touchpad, for which I am ever grateful!)
That accent is so sexy.

Good question. Using VTL.Launcher my TP does stutter a bit on the drawer animation (not on any other animations though), but on my phone (Epic 4g) it does not stutter at all.
I'm not really fond of that type of animation anyway, so disabling it eliminates the problem.
Please post threads like this in the General section. The development fora are meant for development topics only.
Load up Nova Launcher on the TP, see if it's any better.
I'm pretty stoked about this. Hopefully we're gonna get a surprise tonight or very soon....

I'm quite impressed, I would love to try it out, seems that was running on a Desire HD. Wonder how it would run on our Rezounds

wow, really offers a lot of options and functionality. Should be interesting to see how that is implemented and what the cost looks like on release date. I read the website and there was a mention of a paid service. Might that be a monthly cost? Maybe we can hope that google will buy them out and make android that much better =)

yeah it has alot more features than most launchers would love to have it based on just the lasso selecting and the unlimited widget placement lol but overall i think it looks like the most fun just wish i could get my hands on a beta build of it
I first saw this about 2 weeks ago so hopefully it's getting close to release time.
Seen that awhile ago, i wish it was released
Yeah, I posted about this back on the 15th. They have the working model, but they have yet to make anything official regarding release date. The last thing I read was possibly early next year for a release. I can't find where I saw that, though.

There are a few working versions floating around on the net already for this. Does seem quite good and different vs the other mainstream launchers which are all quite similar
Yea it got released, it's almost 17 dollars
its pricey but the more I use it the better it is. Once you customise it to your liking its very fast, fluidic in its motions and the animations etc are great. needs more options like 5 screen limitations etc but great potential and it's quick, next to no lag. I only had a freeze once and to reboot the phone to respond otherwise it's great. v1.3 working great with the box theme

Leave your feedback. Remember, I DID NOT WRITE THE REVIEW/COMPARISON . Please don't go saying that I'm ripping off somebody's review.
In the bottom you'll see a review
-----By tcy148:
" I got the upgrade on my Sensation XE a few days ago and have been playing around with it since. It is
SO much faster than gingerbread - the screens just glide! Games and browsing is also much faster.
I've done a few benchmark tests on it - Quadrant I'm getting 2800 vs 2200 (gingerbread). Antutu 5300
vs 4800. Nenamark2 40 fps vs 24 fps! Browsermark 88K vs 72K.
Plus, I seem to have more free memory now.

So hopefully we'll get perfomance boosts on our EVO 3D !

Seems like the wallpaper won't move during transition like it did in sense 2.x and sense 4.0 .

I was more or less wondering this myself recently after using Newt's Sense 4 ROM. I was curious if there was any benefit of going backwards to 3.6 - this just answered my question. Sense 3.6 looks like a cheap plastic imitation of Sense 4. Terrible!

I think Sense 4.0 looks far more polished than it's predecessors... Plain Vanilla Android has always looked just that, plain. I know plenty of people are more visually attracted to that, but personally I've always thought AOSP ROMs looked like a 'rough draft' of Android. I've run ICS and didn't have it installed for more than an hour. Google obviously doesn't seem to spend a whole lot of time on 'presentation' versus 'performance'. Which is fine with me, as every company puts their own skin on it anyway. I know Google adds cool visual stuff here and there, like transitions and what not, but overall it looks fairly plain. This is just my personal opinion, though. That's the reason I've kept buying HTC is for Sense UI...
They both have ups and downs except for the crayola crayon UI by Sammy lol
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Personally Sense to me has always been my favorite, and in my opinion, Sense has more customization options and more traditional feel for HTC. So you'll never be able to change sense. It's always going to be alike to its predecessors. Unlike stock Android, GB Stock is wayyy different then ICS stock android

It feels like alot of clutter was removed from the system and the store was changed. Play Magazines is actually an awesome addition with reasonably priced items (.99 c for any one mag $14.99 for an annual subscription). Google Now is actually kind of scary in that it has just what you need to know when you need to know it. The 'card' system is great when you want to know about the current weather and traffic but the google seach integration sucks therefore making the sports and travel cards blow. The notification bar has been improved allowing you read whole messages and call from there, snooze alarms and whatnot. The whole thing is just....smoooth...Jelly Bean is ICS fully realized.

I don't understand what you mean by wow you? What exactly wows you? What tweaks do you want aside from being able to change the way the screen completely looks indefinitely?
I think the newness of devices gives it the wow factor more than anything. I'm pretty sure that if you went to another phone, you'd be looking for wow factor again.
For me, I really enjoy being able to control my laptop from my note while the laptop is hooked up to a projector and doing class presentations for my students. That usually gets a "wow. That's really cool you can do that"

So i just sold my SGS3 for 400 bucks and wanted to give the Optimus G a shot havent decided if I'm staying or not but am wondering the top of our page says it's rocking 4.1.1 yet my phone is on 4.0.4 and even after some menial update yesterday it's stil there. Do we have 4.1.1 or are we getting it soon?
No and maybe. Thread reported for move. There's a whole section for questions, and general isn't it.

well sorry, didnt mean to ruffle your feathers. Well this could be a reason not to keep this phone if there isnt anything definitive
I've been using the optimus G for 3 days now and I absolutely love it. I've had a gs3, note 2, and a one x. The optimus g is my favorite of the bunch. I think the screen on here is the best out there. The camera however I think blows but hey there is no such thing as a perfect device.
The lack of jelly bean really is upsetting tho, not enough for me to switch phones. The international version is supposed to get the update this month. I'm hoping we see some custom jelly bean roms after it is released cuz everyone knows att won't have it out till next year hopefully before the 2 nd quarter.

Lol, no feathers ruffled man. It's just that I like my device forum to stay nice and tidy, as do a great many others
ALL GOOD
well I just used one of my upgrades im gonna rock it for a week and see how I feel if I dont fall in love with it im gonna return it and get my upgrade back. I will give this a fair shot as the keyboard and screen are awesome. I think its the UI I hate
Give it a few days! You'll love it (the ui). And I think you're one of the few that hates the camera. There's a picture thread in General full of great pictures taken with this phone.
No, the OG camera is definitely sub par when compared to the best ones out there.
I loved the camera on the One X. The pictures from this one are noticeably worse. Usable, but not great.

Agree with this. I don't have much experience with Android phones, but I've handled the vanilla ASOP-type ROMs on my tablets. This UI skin is very unobtrusive, and doesn't bog down the phone. On top of that, you have basically the nicest specs on the market right now, in the sleekest package. This phone is a sleeper. The ROMs will come. Unfortunately, the masses may not realize what they're passing up, which means fewer ROMs. Really, though, all we need are a few good Devs. I recommend waiting to see what springs up once JB is officially released on the LGOG.
Yes, the camera is not the best, but it's not bad. For most of us, who really cares? If you're a pro photographer you shouldn't be paying attention to your cell phone's camera anyway. It's more than adequate to post crap to Instagram or whatever.

I've taken and seen some really great pictures taken with this camera lol. Since when is everyone a critic about a cellphone's camera? The pictures go to facebook/instagram or to someone else via mms. It's not like they're for a modeling agency or an art institute lol. People need to chill.
Thanks Digil!
I dont mind the camera that mich the UI is just a bit cartoonish for my tastes

Well, it is said to come out, we just don't know when.
*fingers crossed*
I really like the Optimus UI (only really liked AOSP before this), but am trying to decide between Apex Launcher and Atom Launcher...

I used to rock apex all the time then switched to nova now I'm actually back to stock

I prefer nova prime but, that's because I hate the LG implementation of the app drawer. I like most of the LG defaults.
