Hi Everyone,

I have been lurking around this forum for quite awhile now, but this is my first post. I am hoping someone with more smarts than myself can help me. My problem is, on Go Launcher EX Version 3.01 specifications, it states that you can have up to 30 screens. However, on my Motorola Photon, I have only been able to add 9 screens. Can someone out their guide me in adding more than 9 screens. I have been pulling my hair for days trying to figure this one out, and I am about ready for a toupee. Thanks in advance for your help.

Best Regards,
Bernard - Philadelphia
 
I only use 7 myself and one of them is blank, used for widget testing and the like. I tried adding more than 9 and was unable to do so. Where did you read that it can have up to 30?

Thanks for your reply CC. I saw it in a promotional video as well as their own release data.

Probably would help if you linked us to wherever you read that. In the video that's on the Android Marketplace, the guy that did the review clearly states up to 9 Homescreens

Here's a description on the Android Market:

Thanks for your reply Drex. I have attached a photo extracted from the video that is posted on Google Play website for Go Launcher EX. As you can see, it clearly states that, "The latest version of Go Launcher allows for up to 30 homescreens! Just swipe left to keep adding more!". Also, if you google with quotes "go launcher ex" and "30 screens" you will find numerous references to the discussed subject matter. I hope this helps and I really do appreciate your technical ability. Thanks again!

Thanks. I stopped the video right before that pop-up showed up. Something to take into consideration. This video looks to have been made by a user, not by The GoDev team. On top of that, it was posted over 1 year ago...so, the GoDevTeam might have done away with the 30 homescreens.
 
Thanks Drex for your quick reply. I guess since the video was posted on the Google Play website, I thought it might have been released by the GoDev team. I failed to notice the date on the video, so you may very well be right. Well, hopefully if other people are reading this, maybe they can help me get to the bottom of this dilemma. Have a great weekend Drex!

I honestly don't think it's a dilemma. I would email the Go Dev Team and ask them if they had made any changes to where 30 homescreens wasn't offered as an option anymore. It's highly likely that something was wrong with that update, so they had to revert to the 9.

Before I came back to GLEX, I was using Launcher Pro Plus for a long time. The last time I had GLEX, they had up to 10 or 12 (can't remember how many exactly) homescreens.
 
Thanks so much Drex. By the way, I did Email the GoDev team over a week ago. I guess they might take sometime before responding.
