I this post i will add apks that have been optimized for speed, first out is the launcher 2 from UEKM7 rom.
Should be functional on all TW roms

Manual install to system/app with adb or copy paste with root explorer.
As usual, make a backup... better safe than sorry.

Launcher 2 for deodexed roms:

File size before optimization: 15.4 MB
File size after optimization: 1.20 MB, Super opt: 0.99 MB, Android 3.2 0.48MB

Updates 7 aug:
1: Enabled HW acceleration
2: Beta, ASUS 3.2 launcher 2, tweaked, 487Kb



Download:

They put a load of wallpapers in the apk...
And i took them out and tweaked it a bit.

Was the hardwareAccelerated flag enabled in the manifest xml? It was pretty jittery before and now its smooth as silk, from what I have seen in other apps that flag is usually what resolves it. Anyways, great work man, the launcher is loads more responsive now!

This is such a great improvement. I can't believe it's not included by default with the ROMs.

Thanks Doc!

Awesome work. I just installed this, renamed my old launcher to launcher2.apk.bak, and put yours in its place. When I did this, all my widgets say "problem loading widget" i tried doing a reboot, but didn't change anything...any ideas?

Move the "problem loading widget" to the trash bin, and re-add them. Worked for me.

    Remove them from your screen and then put them back on your screen. You will be good to go bro.
