Active Launcher for Stock 2.1 ROM
THIS LAUNCHER IS AS SMOOTH AS THE STOCK X8 LAUNCHER IN STOCK ROM. DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT PROBABLY BECAUSE IT IS OPTIMIZED TO RUN ON ORIGINAL SONY ERICSSON ROMS AND SONY ERICSSON ENVIRONMENT. THIS WORKS WITH STOCK ROM
Reccomendations:
*Do not install as system app - it does not like to be a system app
*Do not uninstall the stock x8 launcher - it works good with it and don't worry only one launcher will be running at an instance, unless a FC happens.
What's new
*"up arrow"
*Active Launcher features
Bugs [ONLY IN STOCK 2.1 ROM]
*Can't add folder - but to be honest who gives a damn, if your using the original x8 launcher you woudn't even have this or all the other feature.
*Can only add app shortcut, not other shortcuts for example "Manage Application" shortcut - Again you can't do this with stock x8 launcher
Someone already did this.....?

Yes I was about to mention this...
The difference here is that u have the 4 corners and also you do not need to flash this with all the other facebook inside xperia stuff (Which don't work properly).
you just install this apk as normal.
Wow, that's cool! But I'm on stock ROM. I don't think it will work. Anyway, nice share!

Oh, I like its smoothness (when you first flash with no apps), but I then hate its UI (status bar is eukkk).
Ever try GCZ? I heard its supposed to be like stock SE UI

Thank you so much _Sparks, just a question, I only use 2 widgets, so 5 screens are too much. And it even has 4 corners to store apps! So can I edit the apk to make launcher has only 3, or 1 screen? If I can, how to do that?

You can edit it but you need to change the integers file just search in xda, i think u need apk manager and android sdk
If u need me to i can make one with 3 screens for u when i have time

Excellent !
Thanks !
Hey!
As all of you guys know that Stock ICS ROM is little buggy and lags so i want to play with some CUSTOM ROM
Which is the best CUSTOM ROM based on ICS for ST15i for LOCKED BOOTLOADER ONLY
You should use the Search button. Anyway, THESE four ROMs are flashable with a locked bootloader.
Thanks but want to know the best from the 4 suggested by you.:beer:

No such thing as the best this and the best that.
Everyone had different needs, preferences etc so what others like doesnt mean u'll like it too.
Try them all and decide for yourself.

For this you have to root . Then download Rom toolbox lite from play store . Or simply install cm9

What Rom Toolbox got to do with changing the SemcPhone.apk???? tell us how you can use Rom Toolbox to change it???
right, I read that you want to get rid of 4 corners and I thought you mean like in the whole UI. sorry for misleading info.
Firstly, this is not my work.It's something i came across.
PIE controls is one of the coolest features of paranoid android 2.99, but only few can switch to pa 2.99.
So this is for those with locked bootloaders or on other roms,
all u need is to be rooted.
It offers you every bit of customization, from color to animation to even your own icons and you can also select which apps should have the pie control and which shouldn't.

You should update the OP and give proper credits, this is a work of noname81. And it's called LMT Launcher. Not a work of Paranroid Team I believe.

Level two pie controls on LMT launcher only work for me if the desktop isn't expanded. On expanded desktop mode, only level one works.

Its a core new feature of the new paranoid android.!
Well. Its a really good app
Perfect for people with small hand and big device lol.
Any idea, how to get the REAL Paranoid-Pie? I mean, there is a difference between LMT and the PA-Pie.

I assume that this LMT is more for people who prefer to stcik to a stock rom or a rom that's doesn't support "PIE control" (for whatever reason )..
Honestly it's not the same, but you can find the core functionnality.
I just hope google guys will hire these people who had this idea and put "Pie control" in the next Android releases.
Awesome

This app is called LMT launcher, google about it, you'll find videos and official xda link. Install the app from there, super easy to use.
I've edited a pair of apps to be compatible with Multi-Window on the Galaxy Note 2. Attachments provided. Feel free to leave any suggestions of apps you want to be supported in Multi-Window. This is for those who don't want to root their phone/ don't have JB 4.1.2, but want more Multi-Window apps.
You have to uninstall your old app and replace them with these new apps in order for them to work.
Updated the XDA App on account of it not working. Sorry for the inconvenience. For some reason it wont show up in the Multi_Window list, but it will still do Multi_Window.
So I FINALLY made a video on how to do this yourself http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kiP95zEp0w&feature=c4-overview&list=UUUD6o-3OCYLZQOTbC9WeWSQ

If you have a device that supports Multi-Window, such as the Galaxy Note 1, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Tab 10.1, then pressing and holding the back button would bring up a list of compatible apps. Basically its running two apps at the same time on the same screen.
