[VTL Launcher] Bottom position in landscape and Portrait [04/13/2011] - Nook Color Themes and Apps

I have been waiting on this for quite a while. VTL Launcher! A scrolling dock bar across the bottom in landscape and portrait orientation. Gojimi of the GTablet devs has done it again. Still beta but works great and is built using ADW Launcher source.
I installed it earlier today on my GTab and loved it, so decided to give it a shot on the Nook and it works great on it too. As I said, it is still beta so there are a lot more features to be implemented over the coming releases.

Be sure to give gojimi a big old thanks for all his great work when ya go to grab it!
Have fun..... HTR

Quick question. How do you install this because when I download it, its a zip file not apk? Do you need adb?

I just don't get that at all, can you not click on the 2nd link in the 1st post that I provided? If you read the link url you can see that it is supposed to be an apk. What browser are you using?

Hmm I'm using opera on the nook and when I go to download it it gives me the file as launcher.zip. I've also tried to download on the computer using IE and I get a zip file as well. Tried dolphin and it downloads as an apk so thats weird but thanks for your help.

That's very strange. Must be an Opera thing, you could have most likely downloaded it as a zip file then renamed it to .apk afterwards. When all else fails you should try the stock Android browser which is what I always use for downloading.
Glad to hear ya finally got it downloaded as an apk.

I can confirm that you do have to rename it to APK if you downloaded as a zip from Opera Mobile

This launcher is nice. Thanks for the link.
I'm getting a bug where it defaults to a dock that looks like the original ADW one. Anyone else getting that? Restarting the launcher fixes it.

Liking this currently. Thanks

I've had the same thing happen to me several times - the dock reverts back to the default, and restarting the app fixes it.
Other than that the launcher is perfect for me, thanks for posting it!

I have had that happen a time or two and all I did to fix it was rotate my nook to portrait mode then back to landscape.
Just a heads up, v1.4 beta is now available from same thread. Has a few fixes and a few new features. Most notably, right and left side docks.
Don't know if the aforementioned bug was fixed in this release or not. Let me know if that bug pops back up, will do the same for y'all if it happens to me.
Sent from my GTablet running CM7

The addition of side docks and a centered bottom dock finally made me switch. So far its good

It's interesting and pretty slick already... I tried it for about an hour and then went back to Zeam.
I wish someone would create a launcher that let me specify which edge of the screen I want the dock on and then have it stay there even when rotated from portrait to landscape and vice-versa. The icons themselves should rotate, of course, so they are always facing up, but I want them to rotate in place, not move to another "wall" when I rotate the device.

bump: A lot of the bugs have been fixed in v1.5

So far so good... I was using Launcher Pro, but I've been dissatisfied with it for awhile, was about to move to ADW when I saw this, which is so much better for the Nook... thank you much!

How is the speed and stability on this compared to Eugene's RC1 froyo?Any improvements?
Also is this using ADW Launcher or did someone finally make a build with the stock nexus launcher? I personally can't stand using any additional Launchers, they've never run smooth in my experience with them.
love the rom super smooth but it can't read my sdcard .. now im thinking its cuz my sdcard isn't formatted to fat32 .. am i right ?

Yes it's adw. It runs pretty smooth though.
Loving this rom as well... consistently getting 8's on linpack.
As far as SDCard it was driving me nuts.. If you back up all your data from the card than select on card and format I was able to get it to be seen. Recopied data to card and it was working like a charm.
(Yes i had it partitioned with ext. Formating in windows, common problem people have, did not work and our recovery does not have easy user interface to clear out partitions like the G1.)
What's the difference between this and eugenes? Just wondering if its worth using this instead of eugenes because I hate having to wipe and set my phone up all over again.

When I scroll through my list, they disappear and then come back after I stop my scroll.
I really like this ROM and it is the fastest ROM I have installed yet. Very noticeably faster!
I would also like to be able to wake the device with the track button, small feature but by no means a show stopper! I might look into this further and see if I can add this myself.
Kudos to Eugene and Clay as always!

just use nandroid. it backs up current rom and restores perfectly. but you can only use it on that particular rom. its great to test out new roms and good back to old faithful quickly and easily.

For me the most welcome change is... *drumroll*.. folders! lol. The drag and drop kind, the ICS imitating kind. Mmm. I love the ease of use with these folders and I had tried all kinds of programs and such. After installing ICS on my Captivate and using the folders I was just not satisfied with anything less.
The "trash can" you are talk bout.. Is that the "drag, hold, drop to unistall"? Because it is still there, hasnt gone anywhere with this update. If you are not seeing it check your settings.
In addition to the ICS folders there are other random ICS features/thingies built into the new ADW EX. I love love love the new update, disappointed to hear you dont.
EDIT: Oh and you asked about the hidden dockbar.. I never used it myself but I think I read in the "setup" for the new ADW EX that it is still there, it just behaves differently now since you can scroll the dockbar (on phones, on tablets you wont have to scroll because there will be enough room for all the icons).

I just checked and I could not find the option to move the trash can to the bottom either, maybe that option has been removed. Personally I prefer it on top and always had it there.. Hopefully you will see the value of ADW EX after playing around with it a little, but hey everybody likes things differently right? Good luck.

Yeah some of the new features look nice, but i've already caused trouble...
One new bug btw. Set 5 icons on main dock bar, rotate in potrait and landscape, and tell me why this new update ****ed up the order. Previous version did it correctly, this version orders them differently
im sure liking the new one... tho one thing that is bugging me is i cant seem to edit the icon in the dock... been trying to get the ICS app draw icon there but i cannot edit the icon pic.... hmm
honestly I'm using this ICS 3d mint theme on the market for CM7 with the new ADW and its awesome it really looks beautiful and also the new scrolling dock bar really helps get rid of all the annoying widgets that are memory hogs.

These are the post I like most. First, you have a guy passionate about his phone and the app. Secondly, you get a good explanation/changelog about the new version, and C. You find the answer to simple questions to things like settings because people are so annoyed by the post. Don't kill the guys passion, just tell him why he's wrong so we can all benefit.

Trebuchet for Prime

I went ahead and compiled CM9's Trebuchet Launcher to work with within the Prime. You will need to put this in the /system/app folder and give it proper rights.. Otherwise it will error out while trying to add widgets
BTW I have removed all the wallpapers and non-working preferences from this release.

Nice, i'll give this a go when i get my new prime.
Will you be updating this as they release new versions ?
Might be an Idea to stick the version number in the title ..

Yea I figured that out and updated the OP.. you need to put the apk in the system folder and give it the proper permissions
So uninstall it and put it in your system/app folder then using root browser or explorer change the permissions to match the rest of the files in the system/app folder

ROM impressions - TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION

Hi,
I wanted to express my opinion about the TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION rom.
The ROM is perfectly smooth - just works out of the box. It may appear deceptively simple, but the long update list in Development thread's OP provides a good explanation why it works so well.
If you had spent some time running Hybrid or Collective Troposphere ICS ROMs then you will be surprised to see the ATT boot animation (though I'm sure that if it's not to your liking then it can be replaced with any other animations that had been posted in different threads )
And another great thing about this ROM is the developer response time - appdroid is actively monitoring the thread and before I had time to load the stock rom there was an update for mms FC that was reported - now that's impressive.
The only issue that I had observe is phone hanging when trying to restart the phone. Happened two times but on third reboot it was ok. Didn't seem to be reported by anyone else so may be just my phone?
Oh, and if you are as adventurous as I am - don't try flashing Tablet Mode UI fix - I already did That will FC System UI and Launcher. From everything I've read in Hybrid thread I knew that this couldn't work, but just had to try (perhaps the fact that I got tablet UI working really well in Troposphere ROM contributed to the desire to make this attempt)
Edit - both of the issues listed above are gone, kind of. Did the exact same steps as earlier and this time rebooted fine without hanging. That part is for sure. As for the Tablet mod - it works fine at the DPI above 213. Again, make sure you flash TabUI_all_DPI.zip as this is the one I tested. 320 DPI is too big, but I think 240 should work fine.
Edit2 - Tablet UI works! Just not with default launcher. I was able to get 213 DPI resolution to work with Go Launcher, but Nova should also work
If you are a new user like me and cannot post in Development thread then you are welcome to add your impressions here. Other senior contributors are also welcome
I don't intent to move all of TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION-related discussion here, especially since appdroid is monitoring his thread very closely. But it's nice to finally have a voice.

That's great news. Will give it another try.
I assume that you loaded the new Tablet UI enabler zip (TabUI_all_DPI.zip) and ran it at <= 213 DPI?
Edit - did you also observe hanging on shutdown/reboot?

Thank you. I got it all working now, just had to load another launcher (go launcher) BEFORE loading tha tablet UI (though I used the latest multi-DPI zip) and it worked fine at 213 DPI. If you can, please post in Development thread as people are asking and I still can't post there. I will PM Jay (appdroid) too.
Love this rom. there's just something about it like. Flashed A couple of roms but always found myself nandroiding back to gb. Been on this since last night and after a full run today I like it a lot.
Only thing I changed was the launcher to apex. Just needed something that looked stock but gave me more grid space. Works great.
Swapped the mms.apk with the one from tye noteworthy thread and no more fc there.
Now I just need to get tethering working.

Thank you. And of course if you want to run at or below 213 DPI you need to replace contacts app. But then again, if you don't care about samsung dialer commands (like #*2263#) then might as well replace the whole dialer, as at that resolution some dialer buttons in stock dialer are partially cut off.

Tried both before posting - none works.
Of course your post is a clear indication that it works for you. That means it's just my system then.
I think its a fantastic ROM so far. I had a couple FC's when doing the initial contacts sync with gmail and then when trying to put weather on the lockscreen. Other than that this ROM is fantastic. I think this might be one I stick with until the second leak comes out or the official ICS push.....Thanks DEV's!!!!!!

Same here. Though I might miss some of the tools available in other ROMs
Sometimes I wish we had a sticky thread with ALL the updates available globally (i.e. rom-independent) so we could get those as needed. Just like we have for Accessories forum.

Guys please rate the ROM if you think its running smooth! Plus RC1.1 out with fixes!

[Q] Landscape Rosie

If I pull the rosie.apk out of a rom that has the landscape homescreen mode working and put it in my system/app folder and change permissions will that allow my phone to go into landscape or are there other changes that need to be made?
I am running the Fresh rom atm and it's the only thing bugging me.
Thanks.

It depends on if you are running a deodexed version of the ROM currently. If yes, then, it should work as you described. If it is still ODEXED, then, no it won't.

Thanks, I did see that but I didn't like the idea of another app running in the background when I could just change one out. If I wasn't unlocked and rooted I would use that.
In case anyone wants it I pulled the .apk out of flex360's rom. Thanks flex360.
This, I believe, also has the ultrasmooth mod.
If posting this is against the rules or whatever let me know and I'll remove it. Just thought it would save people having to download a 500+mb rom if they are running a deodex rom and want the landscape rosie.
I kind of thought this would make the lockscreen rotate too but it doesn't... I have my phone sitting on the kickstand at work and I turn it on to look at the weather on the lockscreen which is why I originally wanted it rotated.

either this apk doesn't play well with viper, or I installed it wrong. I dropped it in /system/app and set permissions, but just got a black screen on reboot. Luckily, I was able to install apex from the play store from my computer, and once that installed, I was able to launch root explorer and change back to the backup rosie.apk I made before I pushed the new one. How are you supposed to install this?
Weird. Maybe some roms have changes not compatible or something. I did exactly what you did and it worked fine for me on the fresh 5.1.1 rom. I just renamed my original and put this one in system>app and changed permissions. After a reboot it worked.
I assume you meant system>app.

eh - if it really bothered me, I'd ask about it in the viper thread. Definitely weird though.

Possible, but I don't know what else to try. Root explorer's pretty basic when it comes to cutting and pasting files.

you might be right, but it's smooth enough for me
If its still odexed first delete the Rosie.odex file in root explorer then place your new Rosie in there. If you have modified the Rosie make sure it is signed. Signature verification has not been disabled in any of the roms that are out I don't believe.

I agree with Flex360. I'm an Android nub learning slowly here. Tried a few of the new roms and his is just...ultra smooth.
Crazy good battery life too, do the one click root. Then install and you are g2g.
Thanks Flex! I can't post on developer yet, 8 more posts! woot.

I really do like his rom but i want the menu mod. If i flash the menu mod i lose the power menu mod and maybe something else...not sure. It's hard to choose, lol. I'm glad we have so many cool ROM options.
