Helix Launcher now available on Android Market

[jice]

is there a way to transport my home icons onto the helix?

Really stable ..so far so good.
Only thing that I don't like is that if you are using better cut and drag a shorcut to the extra space on the bottom the icon dose not stay the same way you changed it with with better cut it goes back to stock...so because of that I wont be using it unless a fix comes out ...I am picky lol...but besides that its a great launcher and super stable .

Per the developer, Helix Launcher will only show if droid shows as running 2.1.

And won't install for non-rooted < 2.1 versions even if you pull it directly from their site, unfortunately.

Can't wait for 1.2

Helix Launcher is BY FAR the nicest I've seen -- Would love to see it somehow integrated with the 2.1 app tray But honestly, Helix rocks!!!

if it's 1.2, then it should work. you just need to create the custom icons a little differently. go into bettercut, create new shortcut, pick your custom icon, rename/etc, then create. if you place an icon on your desktop, then try to "edit shortcut" it wont work, it will place the icon on your default home not the helix home. a little annoying but at least they work fine doing it that way

Crashes when pressing on a app shortcut on desktop... ha fail. Hope this gets resolved. Nice browser besides that part.

Strangest Thing........

I installed Helix but it does not show up in my apps or my app uninstall program list.

The only time I ever see it is when I am in an app and hit the "Home" button. It then gives me a menu to choose either Helix, Home or HTC Sense. If I choose Helix it just gives me a bit of a different interface but not much different.

How do I access the settings on this program or even uninstall it? This is strange.

I got some icons from better cut to work but my sms ,email and contacts go back to stock if i try to put them on the extra space.....jcard how did you get yours to work ?

Latest update works for 2.0.1 roms. Using with dm 1.0 right now. No fc's.

I tried it, but I hate how it doesn't have an option for what Home++ calls "workspace looping". GDE also has the workspace looping depending on which desktop transition you choose.

Right now I prefer GDE.

Is workspace looping where you can swipe from screen 7 to screen 1?

If I was blind I would still have seen that screen shot.
