Dear sir/madam,

I would like to thanks for such great app first.
Home++ is the greatest home replacement app so far compares to it's
competitors, but it still needs some bug fixes to make it perfect.

What disturbs me the most is the app drawer keep reloading.
Everytime I open it, all the apps reload to fill up the drawer which
takes me 6~10 sec (sometimes force close).

It will be fixed temporarily if I turn the orientation into landscape
and pull out the drawer and let it finishes reload once.
But it will happen again if I restarted the phone.

Also, it will be great if the buttons in power strip can be rearranged
freely.
And please kindly add the option for the contact button linking to
contacts, instead of forced to favourites. (a long press maybe?)

I'm using Moto Milestone 2.0.1.
I tried all combinations of options in Grasphics and Performance
settings but still no luck.
Please fix this bug.

Thanks again for the awesome app which make a big difference on my
adnroid device!!!

Thanks and regards,
Ricky Lui

+1

I'm on version 0.8.0.8 and I suffer with this too. This is the biggest
problem with the app (2nd biggest is that lack of support for live
wallpapers IMHO).

I would actually prefer to be able to keep the original functionality
- the Nexus One app menu icons come flying in instead of the old style
drawer.

Looking forward to this being fixed in Home++ which, by the way, is
great.

You can just pull up a task killer and kill the home++ app everytime
you restart the phone. It should fix this bug. I use ASTRO to kill it.
Once the hpp reload, the app drawer loads just fine again. It's an
annoying bug, but otherwise great program.

Totally LOVE Home++

I just updated to 2.1 OTA update for the Droid and the lack of
animated wallpaper support is disappointing. And I constantly get the
app-drawer reload issue to the point I added a screen and put more of
the lesser used (but still frequent enough) apps there instead.

But I'm not dropping Home++ - just hope it keeps getting better.

I completely agree! I too have the same problem with the drawer
loading all the apps each time. Otherwise, YES this is a GREAT APP
but this drives me crazy!! I have tried numerously to contact the
developer but he/she doesn't seem to give a damn about us
users!!!!!!!! A$$ Ho#e...oops (did I say that?).

It would surely be great if this AND the wallpaper issue as Greg
pointed out could/would be fixed, but with such a lack of support I'm
not going to hold my breath!

P.S. - thanks for the tip about turning landscape to load Ricky!!

You can stop it reloading if you kill the Home++ process with ASTRO. I
have to do this everytime I reboot the phone. Minor annoyance, but
this is the best looking home replacement app out there.

Did you try to disable "lazy loading" of the menu? Also keep home++ in
memory?
I did those and is perfect on my N1, no fcs.

I'm having this issue as well.

Mytouch running SuperD firmware.
H++ .0.8.0.8

I've seen behavior with lazy loading enabled and disabled.
I've seen behavior with keep h++ persistant enabled and disabled.

I also have this problem. Checked and unchecked every available option
without any succes. This drawer bahaviour is so annoying, with no
response from the developer, I finaly gave up and uninstalled Home++

I'm not certain if this helps (the developer), but the log states that
