Hi,
I use Nova prime for some time, and I like it..
However, it now and then crashes. I don't know what the cause of the crashes is...
Since the last update there seem to be less crashes...
I made it a system app, and added an entry in build.prop so it stays in memory, but still the crashes are there. Very annoying.....
Apex gives me also the layout I like, but it stutters while switching homescreens, unless you remove the labels from the icons.
(I am on LRQ, with Hydracore OC, but on stock kernel the same happened)
I use the calender widget and google reader widget from Android Pro widgets, and a clock from Beautiful Widgets.
Anyone knows how I can get rid of the Nova crashes, or the stutter of Apex?
Thanks!

Apex under Advanced settings is keep in memory option, try that. Also with Titanium Backup you can convert Apex or Nova to a system app. I have had some success with those in the past. I found LRQ to be a little too buggy for my tastes.
I am using the beta version and dunn have any crashes. Maybe you can try it also ?
Yes it's true. the problem solve when used beta version
if on custom safe kernel, reboot recovery and fix permissions. That might fix the closures.
If on JB then probably due to memory leak. Reboot device.
Laginess can be caused by errors and processes running a lot. Check logcat for stuff.

I have tried Apex beta and it still stutters switching home screens unless you disable the icon labels or use tablet mode (is without labels)
App drawer is smooth just as the none beta.

Until now very satisfied with the Nova beta. No crashes anymore!

Recently got a nook color and rooted it with CM7 and oced it to 1.2ghz. But whenever I access the menu tray with all the applications, I noticed its a bit laggy.
How can I reduce the lag?
Thanks
you can try this: go to settings / cyanogenMod settings / performance / lock home in memory
^ didn't really help.I tried googling around for any answers and it seems I should try reinstalling CM7...
Are you using a live wallpaper?

try another launcher. maybe try launcher pro there's a free version on the market. and if its still laggy, yes re-flash and make sure you wipe your cache and dalvik
i'm using a live wallpaper and the stock ADW launcher and my scrolling is like super smooth
stock cm7 n98
hey, just wondering if I need to disable blur some how? I recently switched to launcher pro and now whenever I try to add an attachment via whatapp it force closes. Any idea why? It never showed an option to choose blur or launcher pro when hitting the home button like it did on my old phones. I had to force close the home launcher and then it loaded launcher pro.

I'm running LauncherPro and the same thing happened to me when trying to switch home apps. It just crashed and LauncherPro opened. As far as the force closes, mine doesn't do that. I did root and get rid of all Verizons bloatware before switching to LauncherPro tho
The only issue I have with launcher pro is on boot up. launcher pro force closes immediately before it will load and work.

Had trouble like this with LP and Zeam Launcher. Zeam just drained my battery and made the phone hot. Launcher Pro would FC. ADW and Go Launcher seem to work just fine.
Go launcher ex doesn't do this. Neither does ADW so far.
Go into the settings and change the launcher manually.

Oh I forgot to mention that launcher pro does take a little while to load on first boot but is fine after that

Hi all xoomers out there. The issue I'm having is this: once I launch the ADWlauncher ex app obviously the home screens change and everything changes including theme. No problem so far. The issue is whenever I hit the home button from whatever screen I'm currently on it defaults back to the stock launcher. So then I have to open the app drawer and launch ADW again to reapply its settings and theme. How do I correct this annoying feature?

Install launcher switcher from the android market (its free) then clear launcher defaults and then finally select adw as your default.
OK I will try that out and see how it goes...

I agree...the other option is to use titanium or bloat freezer to freeze your stock home app.
or find the launcher in setting >apps and clear defaults. Should allow u you to re select adw

I'm noticing my widgets disappearing after a reboot. It's there a fix?

I started to have that problem on 2.0.6 on HD with another launcher. I found it selective which Widgets did not load. Updating to the latest version of the widget sometimes helped.

Fwiw go launcher hd doesn't have a problem.
Ohhh ... better use then Nova Launcher. Smooth, fast, stable and tons of options (for beginner and advanced).
Hope i end tweaked, modified and optimized theme, based on Nova Launcher and Ultimate custom widget (UCCW). I like Nook simplicity and conciseness. Also i try then inverted version. These are my plans. This alpha i post here too, maybe someone want it.
Had a quick search online and in xda but couldn't find much, few posts on a forum elsewhere.
I'm running nova launcher and can change my home wallpaper with ease. The lock screen is a different matter.
From settings > personalisation > lock screen
I can change to any of the standard Sony wallpapers, if I try and use my own it never changes. Anyone else found this? Have I missed something obvious :s
On .534 as no update for me yet, and no requirement to root yet.
i think this problem on nova launcher. becuase i use go launcher i can change my own pict on lock screen.
try go launcher, i very reccoment go launcher + go notification. with little setting your phone will fast and smooth(i has been use apex after try go ex, i never looking to other >< just my oponion.)

Nah, just cleared the defaults and rebooted. Using the standard Sony home, still can't select any other 3rd party or user wallpaper.
I'll try go in a bit, but if even stock software can't change it then it looks to be a bug?
Edit: no change, didn't think it would. Prefer nova over go from that short test but something to play around with.
Looks like an android issue than launcher
any locksceen app installed?
Sent from my C6902 using xda app-developers app
None at all
I use pattern unlock and the stock lock screen
try to use swipe unlock?

I'm also running nova launcher and stock .534 but i haven't had a problem switching wallpapers on the lockscreen. I've used camera generated photos and zedge wallpapers.

Sorted it.
I use quickpic as an album replacement app. Cleared the defaults and use the Sony album to crop then pictures and working as it should.
Something between quickpic and the os which didn't talk well I guess.
