It looks just like the Lpp calendar widget, and works great so far. Do the update if you're using this home app, and you'll get the Facebook widget under Lpp widgets.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been reading some posts so I am better informed when my D2 gets here in a few days. I have noticed some posts about facebook causing problems. Since I do use facebook and twitter alot can you all explain to me;
1. What exactly is going on when facebook messing up contact lists?
2. I have heard it mentioned a few times that the widgets for facebook and twitter are bad on the battery? Can someone elaborate on this since I am new to these android phones and also anything else I might want to look out for. If so I would be appreciative. Thanks to a situation in my life this phone has to last me at LEAST two years.
I Have some long videos (2-5 minutes). I have tried sending them through email, and tried uploading them directly to facebook. When I try this it says the file size is too large. How can I get them to facebook?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've had this phone since Tuesday and it's not made it from morning to night one time. I am using it, yes, but I thought that was the point. My usual routine is wake up, check the twitter/facebook feeds, log in and check email, browse a few web pages, and get moving. today, i did all of that and took a walk and listened to a cd for an hour on the doubletwist player. i took a single photo. and made one very short phone call. it is nearly dead. it's been off the hook since 830 and it's only 3. I could do all this minus the music playing part on my blackberry, which was ancient 8830 and i would still have juice by midnight tonight. and it should be noted, blackberry constantly pushed my email--i have k9 set to manual, as i do with the facebook and twitter/social media widget. so that instantaneous access that's supposed to be so useful and exciting--i don't have it.
i've done all the usuals, turned off the bluetooth, the wifi radio, the 4g radio (the whole point of the damn phone), lowered screen brightness to the very lowest number, making it totally useless in bright daylight and i mean completely useless-can't see to answer a damn call), i have the screen lock to 15 seconds. i have the autosyncing off, i have the whole phone crippled, and it's about to die. does anyone have any suggestions? i was using launcher pro, but want to go back to the standard touchwiz--only bummer is i can't swap out the messaging icon for handcent which i installed over the regular msging app--because ppl said it uses less battery drain-- but not sure how to disable the old one. i am using live wallpapers, but again, how much of a drain can they really be overall? i turned off the animations, is this a lemon? will rooting make it better? will the new upcoming os make it better? or is 6 hours of usage all i can expect? srsly, i would like to know, because if that's the case, i will go back to the blackberry. i don't care how fancy the phone is, if you can't use all the fun things without it dying, then what's the point?
Tired of using the same old home launcher program? Want something to add some woah factor to your Evo? Well, you have came to the right place! If you have any questions, please let me know.
1) Download the following app : LauncherPro Beta - Android app on AppBrain
2)Once installed, click on the home button. You should now get this popup :
3)Make sure you click on LauncherPro
4)Now that you have that done, your screen should look like this :
5)Now, lets say you want some custom looking icons like these :
6)Go to the website www.iconfinder.com type in what kind of icon you want, kind of like Home, or anything of the sort.
7)Download them onto your computer (its easier to make a folder dedicated to all of your icons at first). Once done, put the files on your phones sd card.
8)Now, go onto the homescreen of your phone. Click and hold onto the icon you want to replace till this screen appears :
For the home screen button change, (the grid), click on app drawer.
9)You will now get this screen :
10)Select custom icon
11)Find the folder your icons are in
12)Select which one you want to use
13)Now you have this! :
Do this for anyones that you want to change!
If you havent noticed yet, the dock on the bottom scrolls down so you have these :
Want to get rid of them? Simple. Select blank, and it will dissapear. It will now look like this.
I downloaded it from the Market but it does not show in the installed applications.
So I tried again and again it said it is installed but still no icon.
But it does show as installed under settings, applications, manage Applications.
I saw a thread asking why so many people prefer LauncherPro over ADW, and I was surprised to see that one of the biggest reasons people liked LauncherPro was because of the 3D app drawer. Well being the mass follower that I am, I decided it must be better than I initially thought so I decided to try it out again. I used it for a week or so but just couldn't fall in love with it.
That being the case, I decided to start a thread asking if and why people like the 3d app drawer...I figure I must be missing something still.
So I just started using LauncherPro Plus, and now I can't make widgetlocker home my default like I used to. When I do, it just reverts my home screens back to sense.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just discovered something very strange. I had installed LauncherPro from the Market a couple of weeks ago to try it out on my Moto Droid, and was able to run it by selecting its icon from my list of apps in my app drawer. I recently downloaded an update for it, and now it no longer shows up in my app drawer. If I go to Settings:Applications:Manage Applications it shows LauncherPro as being installed... However, it is nowhere to be found. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it twice using Manage Applications, but to no avail.
Is this a problem with LauncherPro or my phone? None of my other installed applications have icons that have disappeared like this before.
What are the benefits of LauncherPro over any other UI?

View 9 Replies View RelatedNo massive complaints here, just a couple of weird things happening ever since I upgraded to LauncherPro Plus.First, sometimes when I unlock my droid the browser is magically open and waiting for me, though I never opened it in the first place. Second, the Facebook app randomly closes when I'm using it.Can't really pinpoint anything new I've done to my phone other than LauncherPro Plus.I love the launcher, so I'll keep it, but I was just curious if anyone else if having strange stuff happening to them.I am rooted - BB 0.4, Chevy LV 1.1 GHZ kernel
View 3 Replies View RelatedI love LauncherPro and Froyo, but every time I use a ROM for a few days, LP starts to bug out on me. The problem occurs when I wake up the phone or when I return to the home screen after using a program for awhile.
I have tweaked my settings quite a bit, and I can't seem to avoid this kind of behavior. My overclock settings are 785-245 and I have tried messing with the LP settings, but I can't find that golden combination.
Lots of people say LP is the best option for Froyo, and I certainly like it best... when it's working. So could someone who is having no problems please share the secret to your success?
Anyone have this combination?? It felt like with the adw it was laggy. Is there something i should change in the settings while using launcherpro? or adw? Such as the speed of flicking the homescreens, maybe theres a good set up of settings to go by?

View 10 Replies View RelatedIf it's possible to have FroydVillain 1.5 just as standard Froyo without any type of launcher like LauncherPro and ADW etc? I've been looking around and can see that you can remove LauncherPro using Titanium Backup but they always say to have another home launcher installed before doing so.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do you launch this application? On my old phone, it was listed under programs. Now on my new phone, I downloaded it and do not see it there anymore. I've looked everywhere, how does one launch this app?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a question or problem.
If I've got LauncherPro as my standard launcher I have a problem when I boot my phone up. If I do not put in my PIN in time it further boots up without the SIM loaded. That means that I can't text, use data (except for WiFi), call.
I then have to reboot the phone again and put in my PIN. That's quite annoying when you're booting the phone up, which takes a LONG time. If I lay down my phone for a few seconds when it's booting up and I pick it back up, I can reboot it because I didn't put my PIN in time...
