runs so smooth

Johnny:

Really? I keep wondering how a custom launcher can run smoothly since...well, umm... isn't it running on top of the original launcher (i.e., so now the phone is burning cpu cycles/memory having to run TWO launchers)?

I would really like to mess around and do some detail work on my homescreen, etc. (using Nova most likely), but I'm very much in love with the speed the Motion's intrinsic launcher has now. If I 'switched' to Nova, would I be disappointed in the overall 'snappiness' of it?

The default launcher is just an app, same as anything else.

When you run Nova, it runs instead of the other launcher. Just like running Boat Browser Mini instead of your default browser, for example. One doesn't run on top of the other.

Last problem you'll have with Nova is speed. Nova's quick.

I honestly feel that Nova is snappier

Nova is the tits. Much faster, IMHO, than the regular home launcher.

Still messing around with the phone since I just got it. Still in the middle of porting all of my apps from my old phone. (and remembering that I actually bought some good apps in the past lol)

They look like standard icons to me.

Maybe he's talking about the folders?

Did you like it? Are you asking about the status bar icons? I used UOT Kitchen. And the 4g icon I customized on paint.

MotoTriumphant · February 14th, 2013, 11:30 PM

Yes was talking about the status bar icons

TransitGuy4500 · February 19th, 2013, 04:14 AM

how do you upload screenshots?

To take a screenshot you can use quick memo and hit the floppy disk icon, or hold the power and volume - down for 2 seconds and it'll take a screenshot of the desktop/app.

to upload the screenshot to the forums you can either upload it to their server as an attachment or upload the image first to a photo host. I use tinypic. Then grab the direct link and paste it here wrapping it with image tags.

Or you can push the Volume Up/Down keys simultaneously and it will take a (QuickMemo) screenshot. I've always found that to be the easiest method, though some have difficulty in hitting both buttons right at the same time.
