LPP force closes... - Motorola Droid X2

I am very disappointed in Launcher Pro Plus as after about a week of use, it begins to force close almost every time I power on my phone. What a good launcher to try? Thanks in advance!
I am on the P3Droid rooted GB!

Alright Then Well There's ADW Which Is Cool And There Is GOLauncher EX. Those Are The Top Two. I'm Using LPP, Sorry You're Having Issues With It.

I too had major issues with LPP on the X2. I was a long time LPP user, but switched to Go Launcher and I haven't looked back. I've been using it for a little over a month and I haven't had a single force close or redraw. I won't be going back to LPP anytime soon.
The only thing I missed from LPP when I switched were the calendar and agenda widgets that were built into LPP. I downloaded Colorized Widgets (free) and the widgets are nearly identical to LPP.

I was using the FB and Twitter widgets. Not sure if they were causing the issues! I would get freezes that sometimes turned into force closes. Attempted to contact the Dev..., UH but you know how that's goes sometimes with some of these guys!

It was FC on me everytime I swiped to switch screens - made it completely unusable for me. I have tried them all, and nothing beats ADW EX in my opinion.
Rock solid.

Same thing is happening to me. I already bought LPP from the market, it was like $3, I really don't want to shell out another $3 or $4, I think developers should be fixing problems with their apps. I've bought so many apps for a purpose and then later they stop working because of a new android version, or they just become buggy altogether.

Go Launcher EX is free and has all the features of the paid versions of LPP and ADW. Plus, the GO team is constantly updating it.

Im sure the widgets have something to do with it.. I have been using LPP since day 1 on gb and not had had a single FC or issue with it.. Its FAST, and i have a few widgets on it:
-the weather channel
-Scorebook
-Sticky Notes
-Touch Calendar Pro
-Digital Clock Widget
-BT/AP/Wifi/GPS On/Off
not a single issue.. also have a few shortcut icons there.
I even had the 3d effect on for a while, but i turned it off cause i liked the bigger icons top and bottom instead of the fold over effect.. which is nifty tho.

I run launcher pro and only have had 2 force closes since I updated to gb

Is it me or does it not have an option to hide the status bar? I just tried it out after using LP for a half day and immediately had to switch back. Using Launcher Pro since I updated to GB yesterday, it seems nice, but I haven't found many good themes for it to entice me to get the premium version. On the other hand I came from ADW, and while it seems like LP is better in a few ways, ADW has a large awesome list of themes you can install which has been tempting me to return to it.

Launcher Pro bogging down?

It seems like LP bogs down SO much after a while.. to the point where everything hangs. I revert to the TouchWiz Launcher and it's like night and day, with the same widgets + feeds and updates.
What gives? Anyone else notice the same?
Yeah I notice it for sure. I haven't noticed it since the lag fix, but it has only been a couple days.
Launcher pro is way quicker than touch wiz for me. Before and after I applied the lag fix. I also try and reset my phone every other day our so.

I did one of the lagfixes but I undid it and decided to do a factory format. I don't notice much difference, except for when LP lags up the whole phone. I've gone back to the TWL and things are snappy again.

I've never seen the need to reset every other day. But I do notice LP seems really fast with transitions.. but there are some bugs here and there like the preview cards getting jumbled together and such.
Uh. use ADW Launcher? no problems with it with lagfix, I don't know why so many users of the Vibrant community dislike ADW Launcher and is mainly biased towards Launcher Pro.
the only thing i liked about ADW was the option to make more icons fit on the screen. other than that i think TWlauncher is smoother and less buggy. plus the multicons app does what i liked from ADW anyway
Lp is the best! I hate that adw replaces the menu> settings with its own preferences....stupid. Plus lp is faster than anything else

I have nothing against ADW, but I'm using LP right now so that's why I posed the question.
I use launcher pro for one reason. I love the calendar widget. I do notice that it gets a little laggy every once and a while and most of the time a reboot takes care of it.

Seems like you have a pretty big grudge against ADW Launcher. Using another launcher would "solve" your problem. What does LP have to offer that is making you stick with LP? Both are great launchers and the winner depends on the users' personality.
@disturk: It replaces the notifications button on the menu. Is notifications on your menu really necessary? Plus. I believe LP also replaces one button with Settings.
@bromat80: There are other alternatives to the widget, and if a launcher is lagging me then to my opinion it wouldn't be worth having if it lags. At least not until the developer fixes the problem. Try CalWidget as a alternative if you were to experiment with another launcher.

I was referring to being on the home screen..stock is menu, bottom right is settings for phone...lp keeps this whereas adw puts adw settings on the bottom right and moves phone settings to the bottom middle...(unless they've changed it..haven't used adw in a month)

I guess what I was getting to is that I like both ADW and Launcher Pro equally and what makes me choose LP is the calendar widget. The lag doesn't bother me. I was just pointing out that I do notice that it does get laggy and normally a reboot takes care of it.
I personally find Launcher Pro more elegant.
No lag that I notice.

Whoa whoa, whats with the attitude bro? if the OP likes a certain product and want to support it, he can do whatever he wants. It sounds like you are the one with the grudge against LP. I personally like LP because it does 3D App Drawer and 5 icons columns on desktop. AND it's fast as **** on my phone.

Yea, launcher pro all the way, my phone used to lag with touch wiz all the time.
LP here. Absolutely no issues at all. Incredible.
Hands down TouchWiz is most definitely the fastest launcher of them all. I see no reason to use third party launcher other than to customize a few things. Does TouchWiz look like the iPhone? Yes! Does the Vibrant overall look like a better version of the iPhone clone? Yes!! lol. Do I love my Vibrant with all of my hear? *$#@ YES!!! but that is besides the point I am trying to get at
Launcher Pro sucks in my opinion, and is much much slower than TW. You can tell by that it takes a few seconds longer to initially load the icons when going into Applications. Transitions just aren't as fast either.
ADW is probably a tad bit faster, but you still can not compare it to TW. I do wish that I had an option to go back and forth between stock and TW. Hopefully that will be made available in 2.2.
I would say stick with TW, make life easy
You can change the speed at which the applications load in the drawer on lp. I don't think anything is farr than instantaneous
I prefer lp because I don't like the side to side scroll in the app tray. I have my speed set higher than the default values for lp and experience no lag.

[Q] Motoblur Launcher

is there a way to get the motoblur launcher back, i kinda liked it, i'm rooted with ADEO

motoblur is not half as bad as 99% of the people who complain about it say it is..
Its much better than most of the custom launchers in just performance alone. Turn on live wallpapers on all other launchers and notice how crappy the performance is on anything but Motoblur..

i havent really noticed that. I'm running launcher pro with the nexus live wallpaper and it's running fine. The thing i didnt like about the moto home launcher is the inability to change the dock icons and that when scrolling thru screens you have to wait a second to get into the app drawer, just little annoying things like that.

That's true, but in all other performance-related issues LauncherPro and ADW perform *MUCH* better than Motoblur. It's quicker in almost every regard...almost instant to the touch. Motoblur is delayed in almost everything you do.
I'm all about making things look good, and motoblur looks like a flaming turd at my front door...
LauncherPro FTW!
I restored motoblur launcher after instaled gingerblur 1.3, motorblur is way better than the gingerlike launcher IMO

With higher res, 5x4 would be great

Love the new higher resolution on the 3VO, but one thing I have noticed it seems too tall for only 4 icons top to bottom, seems like it could almost handle 5 rows tall ?
Could custom Rom allow that change ?
Sent from my EVO-3D waiting for Myn's ROM
Not even a custom rom, Launcher-Pro ADW_Launcher etc has the ability to handle additional icon rows/cols if I remember right.

effect in what way?
the only thing is, if you choose ADW as your launcher(or probably any other launcher), when you hit the personalize button, it wont do anything. Meaning you cant change the options for lockscreen and stuff.
I dont know how much memory ADW takes up, but I see no ill effect (plus we have more memory than previous evo 4G anyway)
It doesnt slow my phone down at all (had it on evo 4G didnt slow it down either)
HOWEVER, all you have to do is change back to the sense launcher, do your changes, then set ADW back to your standard launcher. Easy
I really suggest you try it if you want to truly customize your homescreen,its literally like about 100more features to ADW than the standard sense,even with it being 3.0
When I had my Evo 4G there was something you could flash on top of a custom ROM to allow 5x4 for sense so I'm sure it'll be possible eventually.
With ADW/AWD ( always get that wrong, sorry) I had my share of problems ranging from FC's (Force Close) every so often restarting the entire launcher.
But my #1 main issue with it happened no matter what ROM i'd be using. The icon bars would randomly disappear and would not re-appear till I reboot the phone. Even when I tried to restore backups of the launcher (build in feature) it wouldnt fix it till I reboot.
Never had that with Launcher Pro, and LP seemed cleaner all in all.
Both are good dont get me wrong, but in my personal experience one certainly was better than the other.

I use LPP and love it, got the 5x4 setup going on. its great.
I agree HTC kinda messed that up. It's okay for most widgets but definitely too much space for apps. And multicon (my saving grace on the EVO) looks messed up...

What is your favorite/most used launcher

I personally like launcher pro but since development has slowed to just about a stop i am using adw. How is go launcher and windows 7 launcher?
Launcher Pro and Beautiful Widgets is my fave combination.
I still prefer this to Sense.
I use Go and Beautiful WIdgets. GO seems to be developing pretty strongly, and it does just about anything I want it to. And it works well in conjunction with the other GO apps like dialer and sms.
ADW here... I've used it on my Dinc and now on my TB... Rock solid.
I've been using ADW lately and I'm very pleased with it.

ADW EX here. I've been glad I switched since the day it came out. Just seems smoother overall than stock ADW. I was an LP user for a while but seemed like it started getting bloated with things I'd never use. It may have gotten better recently as I haven't tried it since EX came out but for me, after using LP, ADW, and ADW EX, my personal choice has been EX and I haven't found a reason to move on.
I prefer LP. It keeps things simple and I can back it up which is convenient when flashing.
lol...I remember when adw and LP first came on the scene - a lot of people loved them for their simplicity - then the feature wars began...
ADW EX for me.
GOLauncher ftw. Hands down the best launcher from not only a visually impressive setup but a functionalvone as well. Im taking gulps of the go dev teams koolaid. I use launcher gowns contacts and dialer. Need more themes but other than that best imo.

What functions or features are you guys using to justify using a launcher?
I hate that the HTC mail and HTC messaging icons don't show the counts, at least I couldn't figure out how to do it on launcher pro.
i'm using launcher pro now but I'm probably going back to the windows 7 launcher. It's simplicity is refreshing, the only downside is I don't get to see my p retty wallpapers as much, but I find it more useful

They just released some sort of themeing API so we should see a lot more a lot faster.
I hate they got rid of the dark icons in the default set, they had both white and black and a few weeks back an update removed all the black versions.

I think smoothness, options of dock/screens and app drawer customization are the most important for me. So is displaying counts and hiding the notifications bar.

Same for me except I prefer Sense over it. If I'm on a vanilla ROM, you can bet I'd be using Launcher Pro and Beautiful Widgets.
I'm using GO Launcher EX (just discovered it this week), I think I'm in love, runs awesome on my CM7 1.2 TBolt, totally customizable, just switched to GO SMS as well from Handcent and am loving it too.
I had been using LPro forever and am glad I decided to try GO.

Just trying out adw ex launcher now y'all got me going over to the market to check out this go launcher...
Probably stick with adw since I just bought 3 themes.
Go Launcher EX and FancyWidgets Pro.
i prefer Launcher Pro because of the menu system at the bottom of the screen. i hate putting shortcuts/widgets on the screen(like to keep it clutter free) so it's nice to that menu at the bottom.
i know that go launcher ex is similiar, but i don't like the 5 screen thing and i don't like those dots it puts in the upper center of the screen indicating which screen you're on.
adw i have never cared for because of it's menu system setup at the bottom.
as for Windows 7 launcher... if that intrigues you why do you have a Thunderbolt?

Issue with Nova Launcher (newbie)

This is my first android experience. I got the Note 2 and decided to try out Nova launcher after so many raving reviews. I download and installed it but whenever I click on my gmail widget, the theme reverts back to touchwiz. Everything seems to be okay. Is it not compatible with gmail? Or am I missing something (setting?) Thanks

Yes, I did. But any time I click on my gmail widget, it reverts back. Once I hit the Nova shortcut icon, Nova comes back. I'd love to be able to use this launcher. I'm trying to stay away from rooting at this time. If it requires it, I'll just use stock TW for now.

If that's true, that's a bummer.. I've already uninstalled Nova but my agenda widget was working fine. It was the gmail widget that was causing TW to reappear after I closed out from the gmail widget. Don't use that many widgets, (mail, calendar, agenda, task) but if they dont play nice with Nova, I'll have to stick with TW.

Not True. I have Nova (prime) installed and have been able to use every widget. (it may be helpful to enable widget overlaping in the settings.)
Having the same problem on my SIII but I'm rooted and it only happens when I use the back button to get out of apps, it will back out of the app to touchwiz. I have nova as default so as soon as i hit the home button nova is back. It didn't start until I updated to Jelly Bean. On ICS nova was running smooth as butter.
Nova crashes a lot. I am rooted and have sent crash logs to the Dev and sent seperate emails and have heard nothing back. I like it but when looking through widgets in the drawer it crashes, when resizing from time to time it crashes and when attempting to move a widget yup it crashes. Not all the time but more than it should.
I'm using Nova Prime and not rooted and all of my widgets are working fine.
First try to remove the widget and add it again with nova.
Second clear the default action for TW (in application)
Last i advise you to freeze TW : in application too, normaly the button for uninstal is changed by a "Disable" button.
Try apex. Almost same deal as nova but I like it a little better

Same thing happens here! I've tried everything. I think it might be having too many things widgets or some issues with custom home screen grids.
I thought it might be the snote page widget and this slide show widget. Removed both and now it doesn't crash when resizing.
When scrolling through widgets in the app drawer.... I found awesome widgets pro to be causing the problem so I just uninstalled that.
Really hope they fix this since I'm missing my slide show widgets-tried several and my snote widget.
Never going back to touchwiz though ha!
Mines the paid version if that helps. I really really like nova and the landscape mode. Just the issue with the widgets really bugs me, and the few hours I've spend trying to solve it.!
I have APW as well. It has been hit or miss with crashes. I restored the other day and things have been good for the most part. I am a heavy widget used which I am sure is the problem.

I know this phenomenon as well...and here´s my "solution": This was my experience everytime I got a new Samsung phone. Suddenly, Android jumps back from Nova to TW (e.g. Site Buddy on the Note). And it ALWAYS stopped this behavior after a few days of usage. It was always that easy :laugh:
