Sorry for not replying your message on crowdin.
For this time, we update the translation files after releasing GO Launcher to android market (maybe Tuesday or Wednesday), and recycle translated completely files on Friday. So there will be some difference between the Language pack and GO Launcher. It’s hard for us to make them match up perfectly.
Anyway, thanks for your great effort for helping us to translate GO Launcher.

Sorry, comments are closed.
Please improve the smoothness of orientation switching animation.
Go Launcher is already amazing enough, just need to streamline the code.
Thanks for bringing us this wonderful app.
+ iphone style folders
+ option to hide/remove home icon
+ dock visible under appdrawer
+ shortcut for recent and task manager
+ bigger dock icon size
Still lagging – transition Zoom When opening apps !!! PLEASE FIX IT
LG P500
Everything looks awesome I would however love to see some features similar to the ice cream sandwich launcher like there Widgets in the app drawer and multi-task manager. I think That’s about it really just optimize the code and make everything more amazing!
Thanks a lot Go Dev Team!
I think somebody else must be responsible for the translation project at crowdin. This guy jiubang never answer questions and puts incomplete translation in the market.
Very disappointed.
I will post this every day till fixed.
I have galaxy note
-Can’t move items between screens in the vertical mode
-There is no option for editing folders in App drawer
首先 设置大图标 最大那个
接着在 桌面 新建一个文件夹
然后放几个软件进去
你会发现
模糊！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！
图标多么模糊啊
Идиот,хватит лисать каждый раз одно и тоже.Ребята,ничего не добавляйте больше.
Мастер, а что это ты возникаешь-то?! Парни, побольше б анимаций крутых!! ДА и более мелких настроек как в AdwLauncher. А так все супер!
@Dev please add aphabetical sort for homescreen apps and homescreen folders also give us different transitions when opening and closing apps instead of just the zoom!! Thanks
transparent statusbar?
option to hide status bar in app drawer please
One word best describes this build… (Step to) Perfection!!!
One suggestion only… Custom size for Dock icons…
Thx for being such a good audience and tester listener.
*If anyone interested – Croatian translation for Go Launcher EX is on the market*
Hii,
Use the Galaxy Note. Works fine but why the lags in transition? The resizing of the widgets, the dock, the app drawer is all great.
Please bring smoothness to transitions of home screens, and the 5 stars are waiting.
Thanks.
Chints.
+biger icon size (like miui launcher)
+transparent status bar
+remove the empty space when the screen indicator is disabled
Awesome app
Would like to know why I have to continue to select Go launcher EX vs HTC Sense when I press the home key from within an application even though I check the box for making Go my default app? HTC Thunderbolt Gingerbread
Thanks!
1. remove the gap (empty space) on top if set not show the indicator
2. custom number of dock icons, need more than 5 on Galaxy Note (1280×800)
3. Go launcher widgets are all too small. They should make use all the precious space in mobile device!
4. optimize the memory usage and performance (too many useless transition effects!)
5. shortcut to go to “Recent” tab directly, wanna have swipe and then go into it
6. standard folder / bubble type
7. use dark menu instead of white
1. Please add the option to show/hide home button!!!!!!!!
2. Maybe improve the scrolling in landscape mode? Lagging pretty much on SGS.
3. Dark menu
4. Remove the empty space when not showing screen indicator.
Thanks really much for listening to what we want, GO DEV FTW!! By far the best android devs!
Thanks for adding custom grids in app drawer!!!!
Oh, and stock android widgets like Gmail in ICS (Android 4.0) are chooseable, but you can’t scroll them…
has the hide/show notifications feature changed? it now requires 2 swipes to show the notifications. first swipe displays the status bar and the second swipe shows the notifications. this occurs if i swipe up or down. fyi, my device is the HTC Sensation 4G
Plz fix disappearing icons after reboot on homescreen bug.
I don’t have time to make another launcher. T^T
I’m tired of saying this.
PLEASE add the ability/option to REMOVE/HIDE THE DOCKBAR like ADW Launcher EX offers. This is the 1 feature that’s holding me back from making the switch to your awesome launcher!!!!!!
THANK YOU!
Please, add more folder styles, let the users select ANY ICON as a folder as the older versions of Go Launcher worked before.
Animation for foldr open/ close would be amazing
OK. Thanks for answering me. I will be more patient from now on. I understand that it is a lot of work.
Jong Min Han there is an option to hide the dock bar it is under the gesture settings. Hope this helps you.
These ppl dont come up with any new stuff despite suggestions! Its disappointing you wait for a week for the update and u get nothing!
nice updates! can you please have and option to not lock appdrawer when using homescreen lock? i dont wanna unlock everytime i need to uninstall an app!
Good update.. lots smoother and the large icons now work much better.
@Alan. Long press on widget and tap resize.. which has been in glex for ages. look for stuff before you whine.
Gainn yeah I told him before he didn’t listen
what do they mean by message of lock screen in notification?
like many complained, please work on improving performance in landscape mode, it is too slow and laggy, I am forced to make go launcher portrait only, imo, you guys should focus on this before anything else.
@alan: I prefer the white menu the way it is!
You can apply different themes to change the menu colour.. transparent space by azooz is a good dark one..
It’ll be great if we can overlap widgets like ADW or LauncherPro
Please FIX random reboot problem!!!!!
Please make a gap between icon and an icon label smaller.
Just found that this Beta is over 4M. It’s time to trim the code.
Go Launcher is awesome! Thanks.
i installed go launcher beta 2.68 on galaxy mini and galaxy i9003 it is working flawlessly
+ 1 to not locking the app drawer.
Ability to shortcut, either by dock item or gesture, to any tab in the app drawer so that I can go to them directly.
+ 1 fix widgets sizing so they don’t leave so much empty border space!
Add ability to capture double / triple tap gestures. Maybe to even create your own custom gestures?
Please add the notisfication bar in your launcher so that we can customize our nofisfication bar easily with diffrent icons
i have xperia x10i but m fadup of default notisfication bar please do somthing
Hi dev team, the task manager with the last version of go launcher do not update on real time the running applications and i need always press the refresh button for see on real time the last applications open and i have go task manager installed on the phone and before with old version of go launcher the task manager work perfectly, please fix the problem as soon as thanks.

**********Normal size dock icon**************
Hello,
Thanks again for your great work!
I have an idea for a new feature: A CAR LAUNCHER !
A special folder with 6 big customizable shortcuts that can be launched from HOME button.
( see my example: http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/5936/carlauncher.jpg )
And some improvements ideas:
-Feature to set individual wallpaper/live wallpaper for each home screen.
-A way to remove label for customs folders on home screen.
-Configure number of lines for folder display.
-Allow to remove the empty space when the screen indicator is disabled.
Option to remove the HOME icon in the App Drawer. Transparent status bar would be nice but I don’t think the Android OS allows it.
Jonasz – you can use Desktop Virtualizer from the market (it’s free) and make that yourself very easily..
just as an example I did a WP7 style screen with go and DV..

Hi… awesome launcher.
However it would be great if we could customise the size of the dock icons alone.
I like the idea of creating a page for the car dock. What if we could hide pages, that way, they won’t show up when swiping through them. Then, we need a way to access them. Maybe, a direct page shortcut. I could then create a car dock page, maybe a page that has battery/system info widgets and then hide those and access them through a shortcut, ie, by assigning it to a gesture, dock bar item, home screen shortcut, etc. Heck, maybe even create one for when the device is locked and be able to tell go locker to use that page when locked?
Icon label showing in the folder is different for app drawer and home page. For folder in app drawer, the are 2 lines of label. For folder in home page, there is only 1 line of label.
Please make it 2 lines of label for home page folder too, thanks.
I have problem with big icons option. When enabled the application names looks like in the picture. I don’t think that it is correct.

Hello,
I love Go Launcher and I use it as my main launcher. Only issue I have with it is that when you open an app, the transition animation is a zoom. A nice feature to have would be to use default Android transitions for that particular function and have that under the effects tab. Alot of ROMs build these modes (Like the ICS transition or flying windows) and it would be nice for Go Launcher to support that. If you want an example of how it works, Launcher Pro and ADW use the “Use default Android anims” function.
Thanks!
I would like to see following improvements:
1. ADD:
a) Flexible indicator position (top and bottom)
b) Custom transition times/delays (e.g. home screen app drawer)
c) Transparency slider for background of app drawer
d) Higher amount of dock icons (>5) for Galaxy Note
…more suggestions to come.
* Please remove the empty space when screen indicator is off.
@Dimitar – try going into.. preferences>visual settings>icons> and turn off ‘Icon base’
+ Option to choose between zoom and fade effect when opening apps.
Otherwise, excellent launcher!
图标变大了模糊，有毛刺，尤其桌面上文件夹内的，能做点实事吗？从2.4版本开始就不知道你们在更新什么，都是可有可无的，
Hands down most feature-rich launcher
I would like to see optimization for speed improvements… Other than that its PerFeCT
**********Suggestions***************
Default dock icon size. Those small icon looks So old school and No one is using.
Highlight type – those square blocks looks horrible
Add the appdrawer highlight type, also glow the highlight color glows around the icon
Please black menu!
@Gainn
I have tried and still have the problem. Hope the dev will look into it.
@Dimitar
Does it happen when you choose custom icon size as well as large?
I get that issue with folders (shows the default bg of the selected theme when using a custom image) but never with icons before.
+ options to disable the icons and leave the label on, for a simpler look
可不可以点击锁定编辑的时候，禁止任何软件在桌面创建图标？？？
希望在程序 与 界面 加入层叠特效 感觉 好有人性化 使用咕咕噜噜特效时有毛刺感觉
when u choos ‘big icons’ the page indicator shows in the bottom and the space taken cant be used also if u hide it
In older versions you could long press folder in app drawer to edit. Newer versions do not have this option. Would like to see it put back in.
Wrong information in the market about the compatibilty. In Archos G8 tablets works fine.
Thx for this really cool launcher.
PLEASE ADD:
1. Option to set custom icons for folders
2. Option to use the whole screen in folder-view. Not only half of the screen. It wastes the space and you need to scroll where it would not be necessary.
3.Option to configure number of lines for folder display.
4. Option to scroll vertically in folder-view
5. Option to hide the home-button in the appdrawer
6. Remove the empty space when the screen indicator is disabled
Thank you very much!
I really appreciate the new feature for custom grid sizes in the app drawer. This is great, however I find an issue with implementation in the horizontal view. The app drawer, recent apps and running apps all have a different amount of screen real-estate associated to the icons, therefore setting the grid for the app drawer can cause appearance issues with the Recent and Running tabs. My request would be to allow the grid sizes to be changed independently for each of the three tabs. It is not a huge issue, but it does make for strange appearances.
Thanks!!
For some reason custom icon size does not work with miui…. any chance you can fix this in future releases?:)
we need “quick” transition on “horizontal scroll efect” in App drawer
Pleeeease , remove the empty space when the screen indicator is disabled. It looks terrible
The dock icon remains small at the time of custom size with an icon. I ask to be able to customize the size of the dock icon.
I want to design program go launcher
E-mail to
Thanks
I really would like to have my screenindicators just above the dock, instead of on the topside of the screen. Could you guys implement this option?
Hey dev team i have request the easy thing and your do not have make nothing…i have request one option for choose the indicator position in the home with big icon for choose if see the indicator on up of page or on down please in the next version add this option not is difficult.
Hey, guys! You’re doing probably the best launcher and other stuff ever! Thank you! Looking very much forward to get your launcher on my Galaxy tab 10.1!!!
I’ve noticed that the shutter effect in the app. drawer lags when you work in the landscape. mode. Hope it can be fixed. Thanks!
staying on 2.65 until the screen indicator gets fixed, that empty space is HORRIBLE, also hate it at the bottom, want it back up top… otherwise this app is damn near perfect on every rom I’ve used so far… so much better than launcher pro (plus even) and adwEX…
and I would like to ditto these suggestions already made by other users:
+car launcher folder (six or nine) large icons
+Feature to set individual wallpaper/live wallpaper for each home screen.
+A way to remove label for customs folders on home screen.
+Configure number of lines for folder display.
+Allow to remove the empty space when the screen indicator is disabled.
When may we see a version that works on HoneyComb? Specifically I would like to install on my Acer Iconia A100
Hey!
GO Launcher works fine on my Xperia Arc S but always when GO Launcher is activated, the Timescape Widget disapears and can not be installed to the homescreen.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and I have a problem with updating my go launcher: after having downloaded on my device the .apk file found here, each time I try to install it, it says: application NOT installed… I tried the older versions as well but neither of them worked… The market says: the application is not signed ‘properly’…???
What should I do to fix this problem?
Thanks for your help!
I HAVE REPORTED A SERIOUS BUG TWICE BUT SINCE THEN NOTHING.
If you create a direct call shortcut anywhere a small icon is created from a contact’s photo or a default icon if used if there isn’t one. If you change or add a photo to a contact the icon is not changed in the previous created direct call shortcut. EVEN IF YOU DELETE THE SHORTCUT and try to create it again the previous icon remains.
PLEASE fix this to automatically refresh the icon or add an option to refresh or rebuild the icon.
It would be great if you could add a direct video call shortcut also.
[...] Xpress Update 07/12 GoLauncher gibt's auch hier: GO Launcher | GO Ansonsten vielleicht mal einen neuen Thread aufmachen
Sonst jemand mit Erfahrung zum Update [...]
Can you support tab resolution? ex: 1280*754 ?
I have updated the latest GO EX Laucher version and now I can not edit may screens. I can not delete or move any icon/widget from the screen and when I do the long press action a message “screen locked” appears in notification bar. When I opened the notification list the message is gone and I don’t know how to edit/delete/add my icons and widgets from the screen. Also when I press the home button and all the screens show up, I don’t have the possibility to add a new screen or to remove any screen.
Please let me know if I can workaround this problem and I think this should also be fixed by Dev team.
This was not a bug. I just found the Lock Screen configuration option and disable it. Now it works just fine.
