Default Love Sense 3.0, but HATE the app drawer? Fix it with this app.

Not mine, just found it on Reddit, which linked me back to XDA.
XDA user "xuso" created the app called 'Alt Drawer', and it's exactly what it sounds like...A "normal" app drawer, without the 'pauses', that is very customizable, and works in landscape or portrait..

The full, ad-free version is available to download here on XDA..

Works really well.

I gotta disagree. Doesn't replace the function of the app drawer button, so you need to have a separate shortcut on your homescreen. Redundant to me.

As soon as it can remove to the default drawer button ill like it.

I hear you, but remappable rosies will be here before you know it...
I just put Alt Launcher right above the other one for now..

I can give up one icon space for the benefits...

protip:

Enable 'low quality background' for much faster scrolling.

Not sure why you guys feel the need to post about liking the new app drawer? It's fine, this thread/app obviously isn't for you....

Some of us think the new app drawer sucks and it is a cheap way to get rid of the scrolling lag that's always in it with a Sense rom (I know some of you have magic phones and have "never had lag issues")


Anyway, the app is a great idea but it is incredibly slow and laggy. Hopefully updates are incoming..

Use in combination with Spare Parts, and also setting app drawer background to 'low quality' in the app itself, and it's pretty zippy.

Oh sweet. I hate the new drawer. I like being able to scroll freely. Not this page by page thing. I have tried looking for a setting to change it several times.
