You can do that but developer recommends not to. Better is to go into CM performance setting and lock home in ran (not sure of exact name but it is something like that)

Update requested!!!

Hi,

Request:
Is there a way you can come with an update which can keep the phone app and its service related stuffs in the memory to have it run "a lot quicker" (Just like the home or massaging app that can be kept in memory!!!)

Reason:
Try this for yourself and see...

As long as I use the original "Gingerbread Launcher" in my Mytouch 3g gingreyoshi 1.2 (2.3.4) my <phone app> pops up anywhere between <instantly to 2 seconds> (Fully).
BUT as soon as I switch to your ADW-EX Launcher it takes anywhere between 3-5 Seconds to load up (Fully).

My Understanding was:
Your Launcher is far more complete and heavier than the "Stuck Gingerbread Launcher"; causing the system to force Close the phone app and its related services like "Android Core Apps" service and such!!!

Solution:
Trying to keep the phone app and its related services in the memory to keep it from getting killed by the system.

Conclusion:
Your Launcher will be remained the best.

Appreciated,
Amir.

So the game would kill the ADW apps?

Hi

Does anyone know if there is a way to organise apps/icons within a folder? I like to keep them in order A-Z - but if I install a new app it looks like I have to just start again...

Any ideas?

Cheers!

So a friend of mine talked me into coming back to ADW after a stint with LP.

I will admit that ADW Ex feels much more nimble now and I am very happy with that.

I have a problem though.
I run MIUI for my rom and LOVE its theme function. Every part of the theme transfers into ADW except the Icons. It really kind of bugging me that half of my icons are themed properly and the other half get switched to ADWs default icons. This did not use to happen. It seems as though version 1.3.3 broke something.

Is there a any way to change this back, or maybe just add the function to not use ANY ADW Icon themes?

Here is the MIUI thread discussing this.

Can I make suggestions for this great app here? Ok lets try...: You can think about making a tasker plugin that choose what group of apps show on apps list. Do you understand....?

I mean, include tasker integration for the groups of app list

I second this. I've been using MIUI ROM for a while with the normal ADW Launcher (free version) and I've been able to theme icons through MIUI Theme manager, but since I've upgraded to ADW Launcher Ex it's no longer possible to do so. Is there any workaround to overcome this or we should wait for an updated ADW Ex version?

Freemantig · Aug 14, 2011

android 3.2 fix please.

using adw ex and ivwasbwondering if there are any plans for 3.2 support. I can't use it since my transformer updated. When you go to adw settings they're missing. Just blank boxes.

Dexter_prog · Aug 21, 2011

Found a bug. If you rename or remove the label of your desktop icons manually and reboot the phone, the labels are reset to the stock ones.

I'm using ADW launcher ex

Anyone know how to add docks to and adw theme I am making?

Why does the dev never respond to emails? I've sent him 2 so far without response, and one of them was a week ago. I've read in reviews that he doesn't respond to anyone's emails. I want a refund because it barely does anything better than the free version...How can I contact him?

Can anyone help with creating a theme? I followed the tutorial everything compiles fine so far. APK is on my phone and I see the standard template theme. Now I wanted to add a icon. Only problem is that when I choose my icon pack I get a force close.

What might be my problem?

Skilover · Oct 24, 2011

The way the color works in the drawer, the only color that really can be dark is black. For example, no way to do dark purple, because to get the "alpha" to cover the background, it ends up the color wheel color, and those are not dark colors--other than black. It would work better with a full color selection chart, that included darkness, and then the alpha control separate.

Thats gonna be hard lol when he first started he responded to loads of emails but with the number of emails he gets now he never has chance to check them anymore. What I can suggest though if old anderwebs still uses it lol is to hit him up on twitter you may most likely get a word out of him on their. Well more luck than sending him a pm here lol
