what device/rom are you using?, might be something to do with your ROM. I never have to restart the app on my phone, gestures have been working without any issue even after flashing multiple ROM's (eeping user data).
you can try going into settings and restart the service and don't change any any other settings in zMooth and see if it works. If it stops working again after few minutes then your ROM has some issue. The back and menu gesture require "SU" to be working, home gesture doesn't need SU, that's why it's working all the time.I'm using HD2 with Ultimate Droid 3.2.0, I've had some issues with apps previously, but clearing Dalvik's cache helped. After I cleared it second time ever today morning, menu gesture worked once, after that only home gesture is working properley. I might consider getting pro version if I were sure it will work fine

Ideally you never need to restart the service (maybe once if it shows a message to restart when you configure height and width initially).
I'm also having problems after redownloading. Olny ^ gesture works correctly. The "back" gesture worked for me only once, for the time I've been using this app. Other gestures no matter how I swipe them wont work. Superuser permission had been given correctly both times.
Anyway, this is a great idea for an application, I'm hoping it will work correctyl and will save my hardware buttons.
Same here with CoreDroid. A pity...I'm having exactly the same problem as you. Though im using Rafdroid's Desire HD rom 4.0.2
I don't use one and it actually isn't recommended to use an automatic task killer on Android.It depends on what task killer You are using, and whether it has auto killing feature. I tried Advanced Task Killer and Adao Task Killer, with and without autokillnig, and I managed being able to use menu gesture once every time I restart the zMooth service. But that can't be called a real achivement and feedback
I pushed update for Pro version to fix the height issue.But everyone beat me to it. The only other thing I can think of is to be able to move it to different areas. Its a great app I bought the full version but I'm going back to the free one because it doesn't seem to do the 10-20 height change. I will keep the subscription though I don't want a refund.
Its a great app I see this being an HD2 staple if you continue to update it.
I pushed update for Pro version to fix the height issue.
for other's where back and menu are not working on rafdroid, ultimate droid, I will try flashing these ROM's and see if I can figure out the issue.
If it's happening all the time then there might be a issue with app working with your ROM. If it's happening intermittently then your device might be doing something else in the background when you are performing gesture.Sometimes I notice a slight delay of 2-3 seconds before the software responds to my gesture.
Using HD2 with Typhoon's CM7. Anybody facing the same issue?
you don't have to really draw the complete arrow (or left/right swipe), just do quick gesture up and down. up arrow is like home symbol(like roof of your house).This is really handy!
But I would like to have home on gesture up, instead of having to draw an arrow.
Left:back
right:menu
up:home
Heck, if there's time. Why not let us create ur own gestures for app-launching ect?
And transparancy would be nice, but I see that's already been suggested.
Even if you decide not to do this, I think I'll keep this app on my phone.
will soon be.
