Erstaunlich flüssig der Launcher. Ersetzt erstmal Holo Launcher bei mir.

Nutze seit einigen Wochen den recht neuen Xperia Launcher auf dem Motorola RAZR i und bin eigentlich ganz zufrieden damit, schön, fehlerfrei und flüssig. Das einzige was Probleme macht sind Widgets: außer den eigenen Widgets für Uhr, Wetter, Walkman und Google Sound Search bekomme ich keine weiteren Widgets eingestellt; es erscheint die Meldung: "Es ist kein Platz auf diesem Startbildschirm verfügbar"

Habe reichlich in den Einstellungen gespielt, aber bekomme es nicht gelöst. Bekommt jemand Widgets mit dem Xperia Launcher zum Laufen?

 

[OOmatrixOO]

Ich kann jedes Widget erstellen. Keine Probleme. Als Raster habe ich 5x5 eingestellt.

Was mich stört, bei großen Widgets wie zum Beispiel ein 5x5 Calengoo Widget, wird das Bildschirm scrollen sehr laggy.

Hatte auf 4x4 eingestellt und gerade auf 5x5 umgestellt, leider der selbe Fehler...

Ich hatte gerade bei der Version 1.3.2 ein Phänomen was ich zuvor noch nie hatte: die drei Widgets Uhr, Wetter und Google-Musiksuche "bewegten" sich und wanderten langsam im Bildschirm herum, obwohl ich nichts gedrückt hatte. Mit dem Home-Knopf stoppte das Ganze und es erschien der Standard-Bildschirm mit den Apps und Widgets.

Habe ich da eine Funktion übersehen? Wie aktiviere ich die genannte Ansicht wieder bzw welchen Zweck hat sie?
