anybody please tell me how to get iphone like screen rotation transition effects in xperia x10?
i want smooth rotation in xperia x10 like iphone does
Try ADW Launcher EX (paid), LauncherPro Plus (paid) or Go Launcher EX (free). They all have smooth transitions between the screens, very fluid. You can customize the speed and type of transition animation as well.
Don't use Live Wallpapers,sometimes they may cause some lag.
If you're still not satisfied, wait until custom kernels are out and you can try these transitions without any FPS limitation
get an Iphone four...you need an iphone four..!!

Once the new custom kernels are released with the FPS cap removed, screen transitions and other animations will be as smooth or even smoother than the iPhone's. I suggest waiting, jerpelea is working hard his own, as well as zdzihu.
Guys please read.
He is talking about the iPhone/iPod screen ROTATING effect with the accelerometer. (Landscape/vertical) He wants that (I also want that if possible in the future)

I think I also saw that on some Android devices. Does anyone know which devices feature these transitions? We could try to port them... or, more specifically, ask the devs to do the work

sure?? i use LP (paid) for about 6 months now, never saw that option. you know he's talking about the transition from portrait to landscape?

Not that its much help now, but android 1.5 devices where capable of doing this with the help of the spare parts app. This feature has since been removed though. I would speculate that the version of android for smart phones that comes after gingerbread might have it natively being as it occurs in honeycomb running tablets as far as I'm aware.

Yeah probably the best way is to use a 3rd party launcher and if it doesn't support it (like ADW EX which I use) ask the dev to impliment it.

Again, he's not talking about transitions between the different homescreens, he talks about the transition from portrait to landscape mode (if you TURN your phone to one side).
And neither ADW Ex nor LPP animate this.

So don't talk about launcher such as LauncherPro(plus) or ADW and stuff, because they only can do screen transitions. (Swithing from app/screen)
I have never owned apples crap...so i do not know the trasition you speak of....sorry.

So he's referring to the whirl effect that iPhone does when you turn it sideways vs just a quick change of direction that the android does? That I haven't seen... yet anyway.

hi guys, today i got my sony ericsson xperia x10 mini, and i know a lot of you are wondering how the phone performs with different applications such as facebook, spotify, games. oh, and i also installed helix launcher!!!!
go check out my video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TohbkqZvvH0
what do you think?
I'll tell you what I think. I think you should have used the money you spent on the phone to buy a new pair of pants. And, you should stop bitting you nails.
I'm only kidding looks cool. That is accept for the low battery.
How is the battery life mate? I think the pants are cool.
lol at the pants.. a lil much perhaps?
I like my x10 better.. the mini just looks like its meant for a woman..
but not a bad video.. i have the x10 with helix as well.. looks the same only bigger..

Mini has some nice speed. Thanks for the vid and making me sad again
I bought the mini for my girlfriend and after playing around with it for a while, i have to say im pretty impressed with what that mini thing can do. It packs a hell of a punch for such a small device!
wow that thing is fast. way faster than x10. i say good buy.
Its faster because its has a way smaller screen resolution. If x10 would have a resolution like that, it wouldnt lose in terms of speed, actually i think it would be even faster..
Yes its because of the screen resolution

I have bought the x10 mini for my girl friend. She did not like the default launcher (used to my nexus one) but after installing ADW Launcher and ChompSMS she is VERY happy. It is really a powerful phone in a small package. It needs Android 2.1 though. Can't wait for that to happen.
It's not a womans phone - it's a phone for people who have no need to compensate for anything.

Hi mike, can you share your expeience on ADW or Launcherpro?
Does the font on ADW bigger than sense? Smoother? Any screenshot to share?
Did you use clock from Fancy widget? Thanks.
I can't talk about adw, but I am using launcher pro on mine. So far I'm really loving it. It's just as fast and responsive as sense if not more so. It makes better use of the screen with smaller icons, and more compact layout in the app drawer. On top of that, the pen still works in the few places that it worked before (albeit there are only few places that it does work -_-)
There is little difference between adw and launcher pro on my book so I'd expect them to perform similarly on the flyer as well, bit if nobody has tried by tomorrow I'll install it and give it a try.

I tried the LP on my HD2_SD_Android with sense build, there is no performance different on LP with CM build. But those apps that from sense (eg SMS) with small font will still be in small font. I was hoping it will change the font size when in LP but it actaully doesn't.
ADW EX is available from the market... Need to pay, but worth it for the desktop real estate.

This is my concern as well and have cause me to think twice on buying this Flyer.
Can you help confirm/share whether is there any effect/change after using the Spare part and change the LCD density? I am hoping and looking forward the customer ROM to replace Sense with CM7.

Sorry mate
Neither I use Spare part nor change the LCD density because I havent rooted my Flyer
(I understand that the LCD density can be changed via build.prop, but you will need Root Explorer, and to use Root Explorer, you need to root it, unless there is other way to do that)

Thanks for the advise, I will continue to hold my purchase decision until it get rooted. If not, I may switch to Samsung 8.9" when launch, or even Huawei Mediapad (the spec is very attractive. 7", 1.2GHz DC...) or may be SGT 7" (I played it at one of the shop yesterday and kind of like it though the speed doesn't seem to meeting 1GHz expectation but good enough and I read that this is 2nd genration of 7" SGT)
It seems as though the wallpaper no longer scrolls with Sense 3.0. This sucks, and there doesn't seem to be any sort of workaround. Not that I was going to stick with the stock launcher for long anyway but it would have been nice. The launcher isn't even semi-transparent like I hoped it would be. ROOT can't come fast enough!

Is there any option at all to turn that BS carousel off..!?. (i did read through whole thread just wondering again) had speacial pictures of family on each of the home screens that meant something to me.
Use another launcher besides sense if you want wallpaper scrolling

The wallpapers are cropped, anyone know the proper resolution?
I've used all the launchers on my android devices. Even MIUI is basically a launcher on steroids. And let's face it launchers are mostly eye candy but can also make your device easier and more pleasant to use. That being said SPB is really really nice. Looks real good on my Galaxy Nexus and I like the tablet version on the TP a lot. Expensive, yes but if you have $15.00 to waste I don't think you'll be disappointed. If the developer can provide value by continued updates and added features it will be worth the money.

can actually use multi-live wallpapers...but first you have to enable live wallpapers in the settings, and after that the performance is -bad- partly cuz it force closes everytime i'd like to change screens and it gets very stuttery....to be fair a pop-up warning does show up explaining the performance goes down, but hey ho we all like to have live wallpapers of some sort.

Unfortunately you cannot resize the widgets, hopefully it will be included in an update. I'm still using go launcher but keeping an eye on tsf.
In that in and out sidebar there's a density option, I think that might help. I could be wrong but try it out.

Yea thats the only downside but Im sure itll probably come in an update soon hopefully lol I did d/l it tho and its a nice launcher just got to learn a different way of doing things only real problem I have is if I long press the home screen it force closes it which sucks not a huge problem tho
Yeah you can resize Widgets and change the density of the apps
Edit: totally worth $16- it's butter smooth not once is there lag. It used to slightly lag at 213 density but after a recent update its silk. The best part is resizing apps and Widgets because at 213 everything can get tiny as hell. And there is landscape mode you have to manually change it.
Although this might seem like a flaw its due to tthe fact that tsf is not limited to a grid size- rather an infinite plane of room on a homescreen to put apps and whathaveyou
Totally worth the purchase
