Hey dkl1, how's it going?
Not sure on that rom....never ran it. However, I am running Go Launcher Ex and there is an option to resize icons as well as have a 4x5 screeen instead of the standard 4x4 screen....just a thought

Hey great, man! yeah, i think i had that launcher then and perhaps that's where it was ..
i'll give it a shot...
stay cool!
Sure! How do you like that CM9 rom? Any better/worse than Decks Reloaded?
I just started playing with Go Launcher EX about 2 or 3 days ago....there is A LOT of customization with that! Wow! Didn't realize it til I tried it.
But glad you got it working!!

Hey Mikestony! Sorry to be a couple days late on this thread but as they say "better late than nnnever"
Indeed there IS a lot of customizing one can do! I have had it on a couple roms I've ran and have liked it.
As far as my liking this CM9 vs Deck's Reloaded, I'd have to say that I think I like the Deck's a bit better. For me, this CM9 seems to be a little laggy much of the time. Don't know, maybe there is a tweak or two I can do but I am prolly gonna go on to something else when I've got time!

One thing I like about golauncher is you can save your page setups in memory, then when you go to another rom and re install the launcher, you can restore your setup. If the apps are there, the pages show up as they were before.
Hey, now that's nice. Now here's a curve ball....I converted my Go Launcher to a system app and backed it up with TB. If/when I go to a different rom, can I restore Go Launcher? (which is now a system app) and also restore data?
Or, do I not even take that chance, and before I flash a new rom, convert Go back to a user app?
Now that will scramble your brain eh? It scrambles mine!

Just thought of something though, we always tell folk not to restore system apps, the ones in red, seems like they don't play across roms...
Tb already restores apps, i am not sure what the advantage is to what you did.
however, if no one trys anything, then we never learn anything, right? and curiosity is good, right? unless you are a cat...

hmmm...yeah well maybe not nowI'm a simple sort of guy, make a nand and try it and see if it works, then tell us if it works or not...
Running Decks Reloaded is sweet enough for me. I don't flash alot of roms. I've only ran 2 for any length of time...MikG and now Decks. I tried the AOKP rom for about a day...Maybe when Decks gets updated I'll try it and post back but honestly, I probably wont remember---doh!
Yeah, about not restoring system apps....that was my curiosity ....maybe it wont kill me but kill my phone....Thankfully, we have nand backups!!

That's one of the reasons I converted Go to a system app.

That would make sense as nothing has changed as far as system apps.
Interesting tho!

Well, I know he is way smarter than I am on this.
Did he say to back it up and restore it as well as make it a system app?
And, like I mentioned, I have seen where folk were talking about restoring it to the same app, so that might not be a problem at all.
No but that quote was from a different context..not about flashing different roms tho.
If you get time this is the thread I pulled that quote from.

Yes he is very smart. Him and the whole Team Dirt crew.
Good to see you over here sometimes Dust!
If by studies, you mean schoolwork, I'm not in school.
