Home++ FTW - Page 2

I haven't had any force closes yet and I've been using this home for about a week now. Perhaps we should compile lists of apps we have running and compare them to see if any one in specific is causing the issues or if it's just performance variations.

On one occasion I tried to wake my Droid up to unlock it and the screen wouldn't display anything. The keyboard and home buttons lit up and I could tell the screen was being backlit, however there was no picture. A battery pull fixed the problem, but I'm definitely thinking Home++ was the cause of this issue as I've had the Droid a month now and haven't seen it do this before.

I still get FCs regularly. They all say that its Home++ FCing but if no one else has the issue, it HAS to be another app or widget doing it.

I have also had this issue. My screen wouldn't come on so I had to pull the battery.

I do get force closes once in awhile, but I have quite a few things running. As for Widgets, I use the weatherbug, digital clock, and battery status on the main screen. I also run a program to update Xbox live friends. I use the sports tap program but don't have the widget on any of the home screens.

I just wanted to post the creators website for those that want to follow the development cycle.

and go here to download the launcher via PC and install manually.

I guess I spoke too soon. A few minutes after I posted my last comment here I received an e-mail. I unlocked my phone only to find that Home++ had just FC'd.

Right now I'm running the Beautiful Widgets clock/weather, taskiller kill all widget, twidgit lite, and the Google Search. The only extra apps I have running in the background is My Coupons, MotoTorch LED, Battery Widget, Messaging, My Uploads, Corp Cal, and my Settings.

The ONLY thing on that list that I also have is MotoTorch. I don't even have the Google Search widget.

Interesting. Uninstalling now, I'll report back after I've had enough time to see if it makes a difference.

I have this insalled and am using one of the default wallpapers. Because of the loop around in screens, the wallpapers need to stich together nice. I'm using the green and yellow one with the green android logo in it. Does anyone have a .jpg/.png of this? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'd like to change the yellow to a more pleasing blue.
