Some feedback

First of all great launcher!

1. What about getting "Dominant Color" of the icon as an option for tile's background? It is one time operation so it should not really affect performance.

2. Noticed a bug when pressing tiles. It is some kind of shadow. My suggestion is to remove it, or resize to be consistent with a whole tile(and maybe change its color to the tile's color too).

I've been playing around with some of the tiles available on earlier posts and i've made a couple myself too! I've got it yesterday and been really excited about it, I love how fast it scrolls!.

I have a question, Can anyone tell me which widgets are running ok on their devices as I cant get my stock widgets for my S3 to work. cheers

First want to say thank you for this great launcher, definitly has a big potential.
Just saw a "bug" that make me come back to my old launcher. When you choose a image for the tile background, better to have the option to crop the picture to fit perfectly, not resize the image to tile size, it distort the image and looks weird.
Love the drawer in JB/ICS style, if you add the opacity option on drawer would be perfect!
And a option to use a tile as the drawer button.
Im excited with this project for real. Congratulations!

Sorry for my bad English by the way XD

Dont know if it is just me but when i apply defaults for a single color background to be applied for every app, once i place it, it is still placing them at random colors. Do i need to reboot or something? Other than that, awesome launcher. Wont switch to win8 anymore. :)

Yes, that or it switched to None for background, and then I cannot restore defaults by clearing app data. Still no solution to using custom icons via an icon app like Glaskart that I posted above.

But....... it is still beta, and awesome already.

Thank you guys so much for the info, and this is an amazing launcher which has massive potential!. So far so good.

bugs : 1. When rebooting my phone, all icons come as question marks, i have to edit the app setting like changing the rows etc and it'll restart the launcher and then it starts running fine.

2. When going through my widgets to choose which one i want to place, as i scroll it FC's and relaunches the launcher again. Out of every 3 times I scroll through the widgets I get 2 FC's


Question : I have the screenshot of the Eye in the sky widget which is not the same pixel ratio as the icons, I want to get it to make it fit with the icons as that would make the widget look much more authentic.

Thanks! and keep up the good work!

hello OP , thanks for the great launcher :)

Btw, can I push this launcher to system/app to be default launcher ?
do I need system/lib file ?
or should I convert it with TitaniumBackUp ?

tabs are ok, but we need an option to hide them, or at least confugure their's colors. and it also still no actions we can bind for home button

Tiles show only text if their size is less than 1/4 screen width. Why?

PS. Suggestions.
1. Infinite vertical nova scrolling in drawer.
2. Draw wallpapers down to the screen bottom for PA compatibility.
3. Centered titles on tiles (not left-aligned).

This is the best now. Vertikal scrolling is so cool. Now I can use Nexus 7 with one finger only.

This is a bug and will be fixed next version :)

This can already be done under settings :)

You can definitely push it to system/app and it should work :)

This is a great launcher.

One thing I cannot figure out. I've been using the Glaskart theme with Nova Prime, and most of the apps have an icon, but there are some that do not. In Nova, I can select any icon during edit from the Glaskart choices. I have the newest 0.57 beta.

When I try to change icons in the Tile Launcher by "select image" it takes me to the Gallery to select. I do have Glaskart chosen under Settings, General, Icon pack. Does anyone know how to do this? Is this another feature that is not implemented yet?

Choosing any icon from icon packs will be implemented soon :)

tabs are ok, but we need an option to hide them, or at least confugure their's colors. and it also still no actions we can bind for home button

There is already an option to hide them under settings. You must only have 1 screen.

All you have to do is resize the widget tile after you've selected the image and the image will readjust.
