[Q] di11igaf's rom v5.2 menu problems

I just flashed di11igaf's rom v5.2 and if you go to the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=897416) and look at the screen shots, there is a five icon home screen menu that's silver. I flashed specifically for that, and as soon as it loaded up after flashing, I got the three icon one. Any ideas on why or how to fix it?

is that launcherpro? i think theres a option to use that or the android launcher as default when you hit the home button

There was launcher, launchpro and twlaunch, and I picked launcher

Thats why... You need to pick launcherpro. If you already set default, then download an app called home switcher or home manager and clear defaults then choose launcherpro. Then go press menu>Preferences and custumize it however you want. Btw launcherpro is just and app and can be downloaded from the market onto any phone and rom. And anyways most roms have it already, just because it isnt on the picture doesn't mean it isnt in the rom. And next time you can just as this in the rom thread and you would have got a faster response.

I thought that could be the problem so i just went into recovery and flashed again and I picked twlauncher and then launcher pro and it gave me the different menu. I then refreshed the window on my laptop and you gave me a confirmation, so thanks. I still dont have the cool sliver mesh menu so if theres any ideas about that, its appreciated but if not, thanks for your help.

go into the prferences and advanced setting then choose dock then custom dock and u should have the custom docks in your album to choose from then use launcherpro icons

Thanks but I recently switched too firefly and the dock its great so I'm gunna stick with that, but thanks anyways.

[Q] Can't Add World Clock Widget to Homescreen?

I am using Launcher Pro Plus on my brand new Bionic. I have an empty screen and am trying to add the World Clock widget, yet it keeps telling me I have no room and won't let me add it? Has anyone else run across this issue? Any feedback?

I downloaded home switcher and went back to the stock home screen to test. I was able to add it there with no problem. Ths widget must not be compatible with launcher pro?

[Q] create shortcut to Xperia Home

Hi,
I'm just trying out the 4.4 stock launcher and like it quite a lot, but sometimes I want to switch to the Xperia Home launcher. As I don't see an icon for it in the app drawer, I was wondering if it's possible to create a shortcut to it on my homescreen? Can this be done with stock launcher, or I'd need something like Apex to be able to do this kind of thing? I am rooted if that helps.

Download an app called Home Switcher and place that on your home screen.

Thanks, I guess this is a workaround. Hadn't thought of looking at apps, was used to using a Galaxy Nexus with Apex so never really ran into launcher limitations before and was hoping this is something that Android might be able to do natively.
I did manage to find a couple more apps that are supposed to let you create shortcuts to apps or activities, will try them out (though it looks like they create a widget rather than a "real" shortcut so i won't be able to place it in a folder...)

Apex launcher + notifier - but no notification

Hi guys, I'm using the Apex Launcher Pro in combination with Notifier enabled, but no notifications show in the dock. Anyone know if I have to give some sort of permissions.

Dual App with another launcher

Hi everyone,
I have a small problem when changing the default launcher. If I change the stock to another one (nova or lawnchair) I lose the dual WhatsApp app. I only can see one shortcut to WhatsApp so I only can use one.
Has anyone change the launcher and have two apps??
Thanks everyone!!!!!

Firstly delete the dual app and try this... Switch to lawn chair or nova then setup the dual app from scratch and your second shortcut should appear.

Ok, i intended about changing launcher, not about dual apps. Maybe some update can change this issue. Are you in Nova's beta program?

Yes. I can change the launcher. But the dual shortcut disappear. Even if I do it before or after changing the launcher.

i m using nova launcher and also using 2 facebook accounts.. u can try this trick. keep the smart sidebar option on and select the dual app in it..it will show no matter whichever launcher u r using..

You can try this. Lock the cloned app in memory on recent apps. Now change the default launcher to your favourite one. And that's it. You can launch rhe cloned app from recent apps whenever you want.

I have Samsung S10 launcher enabled as default launcher and still using both WhatsApp easily .
For any launcher , Enable dual WhatsApp in side bar , u can also set as floating window
Go to Settings > convenience aid > smart side bar
in side bar settings choose a both WhatsApp and cloned whatsapp

This is just a workaround. There should be no issue accessing cloned apps outside default launcher in the first place.
