I'll check this later... There are currently quite a few things which changed for the worse with 5.1.0, and I'm trying to sort them out in the order of (my) priorities

But I wasn't sure yifan would agree to me distributing my binary version of his launcher, so I just left my stuff on github in source files (and on my KT to be used in my extensions ^_^ ). Maybe ixtab could include my changes to his published version, 'cause I wasn't able to create update.bin packages last time I tried. |

Install the extension WaffleTodos. As soon as the keyboard shows up to enter a todo in the list, the application crashes with error "The selected application could not be started. Please try again." |

After reboot or framework restart I can enter any submenu in launcher, but only once. No matter if I clicked on anything in it, all submenus disappear from that point. |

Thanks, this resolved the problem. Orientation submenu now works all the time.

Version 1.2.0 (Firmware 5.1.0)
Ok, here's an update.
I re-integrated the orientation stuff into the distribution, and re-activated the integration as a Reader Plugin (so you get the Launcher again inside the normal ebook reader). Note 1: Upside-down orientation doesn't work (except if combined with jbpatch) Note 2: This still does not show the launcher menu in WAF applications, such as the browser. Note 3: all Json menus are now treated as "dynamic", so no more need to explicitly specify it (but you still can). Source code is here: https://bitbucket.org/ixtab/ktlauncher ... and the binary is attached. Enjoy! @JustAMan: do you want commit access to the repository? Update: The file attached here did not work on all devices. There is a fixed version here. Last edited by ixtab; 05-08-2012 at 06:23 PM. |

Hmm, I can send pull request I suppose...
I don't have 5.1.0 on my KT and don't plan to upgrade right now (as upgrading might theoretically involve some de-bricking thus taking some more time than 15 minutes), so I won't be able to test the code completely... and I always failed to make update.bin to install. |

You can safely remove the code to enable/disable refreshOnTurn from setorientation.sh as the new firmware does not lock after 6 pages refresh. You could use the code from the original launcher 1.0 which doesn't need setorientation.sh at all. Last edited by wolftail; 05-02-2012 at 09:38 AM. |
