+4 and if you go to his site you can get the Helix Launcher 2 for the Droid (do NOT get the Launcher 2 from the Market, that will NOT work). See the thread at http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...13-video-new-helixlauncher-2-coming-soon.html
I thought there were problems with the Helix Launcher 2. Is that incorrect?
As usual, you're correct, Hook! Helix Launcher 2 has been reported to be a resource hog and force closes all the time. The issues are discussed here http://www.droidforums.net/forum/te...lix-launcher2-keeps-looping-forced-close.html, which is one of many threads about the issue. Regular Helix Launcher is awesome though and I highly recommend it.
Only partially correct. The Helix Launcher 2 from the Market won't work on the Droid. On my unrooted 2.1, Launcher 2 from the donation site works fine. Yes, I've had some FCs, maybe 3 a week, but that was the same (for me) with GDE and Home++.
It does use power; I'm seeing 9% at the moment. About the same as Phone Idle.
