Hi, i started using themer today and modded a theme for my use. But i noticed a really annoying slow changing of the current page. I have theme where are shortcuts for jumping to other screens. But when i tap on it i have to wait more than a second to make it change (with scrolling its the same). Any help for this issue?
What version of themer are you running,also what device are you running it on m8 and what firmware ? If it is the latest version of themer there is a known delay issue, this may be related to this.Please remember this is still in beta so please report any issues you have to help make themer better,thanks
With the new version everything is ok. Only themes made for different dpi is lagging but that's understandable.

@Gnaver
Try this with any theme you use that is for a different DPI
1st get the theme all set as I should be (or till your happy with the look.
2nd now export the theme (this should now save the theme to your DPI)
3rd after exporting now set the theme again using the version you exported and see if you still have lag.
This is not 100% going to work but its 100% worth a try
Please report back if this works or not
All the best

Anyone know if Launcher Pro will look good at a higher resolution like the Atrix has? I tried LP on my Galaxy Tab and it did not look so good due to the high resolution.

I looks great. I changed it to 5 rows, instead of 4 stock, and you can fit more on each screen than a captivate. It's crazy fast too, and the transitions look great.
i just paid for the PRO version because i really liked the free version. Where do you go in and change how many rows and such? There isnt a Launcher Pro app in the menu.

You can change most launcher settings by pusing the menu button the homescreen and choosing "preferences" or something similar. There is also a shortcut there to the Android Settings menu, so don't be surprised if you click that one first.

I notice some of this as well. Nothing that gets me worked up, as this probably hasnt been optimized for dual core phones, but i definitely notice some lag.

Mine is so fast. I truly feel the unleashed speed of the tegra now.
Mine's working fine. Only problem is that on the "People" widget, contact icons dont show up. Well, only the contacts with a gmail pic show, but the ones synced with Facebook dont. Anyone else care to confirm this?
Thanks

I have had this happen on other phones. I just left the Samsung Epic 4g to get the Atrix and my Epic did the same thing. I waited a few hours (next day) and updated the "people" widget and they all appeared. Let me know if this helps.
Got a thread going in General about reboots. Launcher Pro may (or may not) be the cause.
For anyone installing, post back if the phone reboots at some point (within 24 hours) after installing Launcher Pro.

Same here, and using Folder Org for grouping apps together, along with the "show apps" as the icon, looks very slick and excellent details on the tiny icons.
Been running the paid launcher pro for more than 24 hours now and customized it to death. Im currently running it with beautiful widgets and live wallpaper, no problems encountered
Its not causing reboots for me, but it is laggy.

Had LP Paid edition for 24 hours now and also on BW and there has not been anything bad about it so far. I dont feel the laggy as much more like its smooth now. The one thing I dont like about all this is the icons are so much smaller and so is the text for some widgets since resolution is so high.
I tried to put the option for stretch icon to fit in column and width but that didn't really do anything.
Other than that LP on this is pretty nice..... so far so good.

i cannot get the pictures to sync.
Anyone with the Calibri font think they can whip up some quick dock icons for the Atrix?
Preferably like the ones from Dreamlyfe Mini set?
Bare in mind I'm using ADW, but I have noticed that Live Wallpapers make my phone feel like a brick. The second I put a static one in there my phone went into rocket mode.
Anyone having a problem setting the default Launcher? I installed Launcher Pro and it becomes the default, but I can't go in and change it back to Blur as the default with uninstalling it. HomeSwitcher or HomeSmack are not working.

Hi all,
I am using cm 7.2 the latest kang build out for our phone. I am among the minority who uses the LCD density changer application because I find the normal 240 setting to be big and bulky. I noticed that the dialer and the recent apps screens don't adjust very well.. the numbers get tiny and the recent apps and black background are tiny as well. However, recently the dialer issue was fixed in one of the nightlies and now it resides properly. I am wondering if it would be easy to make the same adjustment for the recent apps drawer?
I would like to stress that this is very much a want and NOT a need.
If it never gets implemented, there's no issue, cm is still a kick-ass rom
Also if there is something that I can do on my end to fix it myself, please let me know.
hope this is in the right place, was gonna put it in the development section but I'm not a dev so here it is

Does anyone one know if there is an app out there that can automatically switch your launcher theme every X hours? I currently am running Bionix-V 1.3.1 Fishman mod (Final 2) and use Go Launcher EX. I have several themes for the launcher, but I also use Zedge to update the wallpaper every hour for some variety. However, when the wallpaper changes, it may not match the theme, so I end up applying a new Go theme (which also applies the wallpaper for that particular theme), then I have to go back into zedge and re-apply the wallpaper from zedge. I know -- it doesn't really make any sense, but I get tired of staring at the same theme/wallpaper. If there is an app (it might have to be launcher-specific) that allows the themes to rotate automatically, I would probably stop using zedge altogether.
Anyone?
Apparently I am the lone Android user among the millions worldwide that cares about automatically switching themes. How sad.
Not at all. It's just that, as far as I can tell and have seen, such a thing doesn't exist. You would need either a plugin for an existing launcher, or such a thing built into the launcher itself. Your best bet is to contact the developers of each launcher with the suggestion. It's a good idea and I'm sure at least one of the developers would give it a shot.
Thanks
Thanks, Johnny. In a way, I was kind of hoping I was just bad at searching.
Just wanted to say i am running 2.85 beta2 whuch can be downloaded off their website. If u set the icons to "default" size there should be almist no lag. Im literally experiencing no lag... With 12 widgets (6 loaded homescreens too).

yeah, i have fiddled with ROMS and Kernels - no matter how high you overclock your phone, the GoLauncher just didn't seem optimized for use on the GNote
But I can finally say i'm happy with my phone! lol

Is it just me, or is Go Launcher laggy? The touchwiz launcher feels absolutely smooth compared to it.
It's up to Beta 4 now.
I'm just using the release version of Go Launcher and I feel it is the smoothest of the rest (TW, LPro, ADW).

Well i would assume there would be some final optimizations before they release it to the market. to me at least, beta means unfinished/unpolished product
Does installing the new beta erase all your settings and everything? Or does it just update itself?
just updates your go launcher all your stuff should still be exactly were you put it. Also beta 6 is out and is even smoother
I always used adw-ex on all my phones, it was just too leggy on the Note. I have it set to 9x9 icons with widgets on every page (5). I installed this beta and it was considerably less laggy than ADW. I'm a happy camper lol!
Great find - beta 6 Rocks!
My only ***** with Go is not maintaining sorted folders on the Widget side.
Just installed 6 as well. Don't notice any immediate change. No problems either though. I'll see how it goes over the next few days.
edit: it looks like they took down the 2.85 betas from their site... am I missing it? If not I wonder why...
Well as expected with beta releases there have been a few issues I've experienced that caused me to wait for the market release.
I.e. beta 2 messing with the dock background resulted in a "error must reinstall" type message which reset all the screens. Restore would not recover my settings.
Also in beta 4 somehow when setting the home screen it would actually dissapear.
I know the first issue was fixed but it gets old manually setting up my screens so ill wait for final release of this beta.

The official 2.85 is out in the Play Store now. I updated my beta to it and it runs better than ever, very smooth!
just installed latest from market.
seems faster BUT how come I have to press the home button twice for it to respond now? I couldn't find any settings...
UPDATE: some strange conflict with Magic Locker. Had to uninstall magic locker and now home key working ok.

yea, i was wondering the same. market shows latest update.
maybe they are making a new redesigned version? lol galaxy note specific ? not
*** EDIT ***** if you guys are running the V6 script, try the NitroLAG Nullifier - it definitely helped reduce A LOT of lag on the homescreen. and make sure in GoLauncher preferences "Advanced -----> System Persistent" is UNCHECKED.
I would love the ability to be able to bend text within themer instead of having to do it via photoshop.

Hi mate the way I bent the text in my newest theme was using themer zooper. I allowed widget over lapping.
Made the zooper widget then a put the every thing widget over the top.

Zooper is the future, there's not much that you can't do with it. Check out the G+ community for some examples and help.

To be honest when I first used themer it was looking like a stand alone launcher to theme.
But now its no different to using holo HD and uccw and zooper
In fact
Themer instead of holo HD.
Everything widget instead of uccw.
And zooper in both.
So now if that how things will pan out I think i will go back to holo HD as it has more features. Less bugs. Less crashes. Less lag. And is all round smother even when added uccw and zooper.
And in all fairness I never lost a theme due to the launcher when using holo HD uccw and zooper.
And to be honest in my opinion the bugs and crashes are getting worse NOT BETTER.
I hope thing can change for the better as I would like to use a all in one as started not 5 different apps.
As at the moment I'm using themer, zooper pro, zooper themer, uccw and widget locker as if I try to add zooper or the everything widget to widget locker it fails.
Now I'm hoping when lock screen is added to themer it will be better and over time things will be fixed but there have been many versions and yet still in beta with for me more bugs then started with.
This said there are more features then when first released.
And don't get me wrong I fully understand the difficulties in development as I built a few roms for the sony ericcson x8 and many of time I would add 1 feature which would cause 10 conflicts some where else or even a boot loop so I'm not say the themer team are not doing there best to fix because as many of you will know even when a bug is fixed their is a chance that this could cause other bugs.
And that is the the thing with development until done its unknown!
So to me in my opinion it would make sense to not add more features at this time but to focus on ironing out all the bugs and get what we all ready have stable.
Me for one would be more then happy to wait 3 months for more features but knowing that when more things do come it will be stable ( there is nothing more annoying then spending 4-6 hours on a theme and then losing it ) but one thing for sure when stable this will be without a doubt the best launcher IMO.
And I will continue to support themer as the more people help and feed back the better themer will become as in a way there is 2 part to development
1 the development its self
2 testing and reporting bugs
Which then leads to a loop
1 the development its self
2 testing and reporting bugs
3 more development
4 testing and reporting bugs
5 more development
6 testing and reporting bugs
And the loop continues till every thing is fixed.
So again to ALL USER PLEASE REPORT EVERY BUG,CRASH,GLICH to the @ThemerSupport team.
Just my opinion

I'm not saying its not mate. It just needs work as the main thing a user will look for is stability.
You could have the nicest look in the world but if not stable what is the point. For ex sample if you had a device that stopped at 2.3.6 GB but there was a unstable 4.4.2 rom for it but you keep getting a black screen. You would not use that rom for long.
And its the same with any app, themes. Widget and so on the end user wants stability.
So although though yes rom bugs are much more annoying and affect the user more.
Users regardless of what there using are all looking for 3 things and they are
1 stability
2 speed
3 look
And in that order for most smartphone user (for WP8 users start at 3 and finish at 1 lol)

In the whole I agree with Moley,more has been said about getting more themes out there than concentrating on getting the product to work,it is all about priorities.The product although in beta has good merits but there is also the downside that simple things sometimes just don't work as they should,dissapearing widgets is a pain in the arse,especially after all the time it can take to put one together,this is so frustrating,features that have been requested since almost day one still have not been implemented,while other non essential items have been added,remember this is just my opinion and no detriment to the developers as I know how hard it can be to get things right,especially since one thing corrected can throw others out I have done it myself when programming,but the problems need to be ironed out before any cosmetic changes are made,and again I say this as a fan of the programme.I work in marketing & advertising and could never get away with trying to convince any potential customer that his product doesn't work but hey it looks **** hot.As above I think priorities are wrong.Zooper can not replace themers everything widget it simply doesn't have all the thiings listed previously,to say it's the best well how long have you used it for and how many themes have you made ? because many of the problems are associated with creating the themes and many end users who only use them don't come across them.I honestly wouldn't say it is the best,yet. Given time and proper remedies for current issues it will get there.
Remember a product is only as good as the support it is given by both the developer and the end user.
