i saw my friend's one is more than 70mb,
but Wildfire is only 50mb plus.

finally i successfully install froyo on my phone,
but i felt it has a bit lag,
is it because of the phone havent 'warm up' yet?
or i have too much apps in my phone?

is it better i backup the apps,
or dl again later?

and another question is:
i plan to buy sd card tonight,
is it better i make partition for it,

and one for mp3/picture/video etc?
or it is not necessary?

i felt that the orientation is too sensitive until i got to hold my phone carefully,
if not i got to turn my head when i am typing the message.

another difference is:
they have a little bit changing on gmail apps too,
but facebook are still not supported push notification. sad.gif

Been 2 days with Go Launcher.

It's not as smooth as LauncherPro. When I flick through the app drawer, it's sluggish.

The app drawer doesn't seems to suit Wildfire's resolution. 4X4 icon with label, some of the icon label can't be display fully. However, this can be solve by disable the notification bar. But then, you unable to use the notification bar on the homescreen.

Even though you disable the notification bar, when you go to "Recent" or "Running" tab, the icon text still unable to display fully, due to the occupied space of the additional tab under the "Recent" and "Running" tab.

There's also less animation comparing to LauncherPro. In LauncherPro, when you press the app drawer icon, there's zoom in effect when you enter the app drawer. However in the Go Launcher, there's no animation whatsoever.
*
my wildfire also have a little bit lag if i am using Go Launcher, but i do not facing this problem when I am using Launcher Pro.

I tried. The app drawer don't look so good actually. Not as good as launcherpro. I didn't try the keyboard though.

i quite like the launcher pro because of the 3D interface apps drawer,
it looks nice.

Gingerbread launcher!
Mine doesn't have 3D interface apps drawer. Just like dark dark on the top and bottom. It just looks like Launcherpro. You download Android 2.3 Launcher or Gingerbread launcher? There's a lot!

no, i am using launcher pro too, we can change the setting from preferences>advanced setting. i wanna download 2.3 launcher or gingerbread, but as i know wildfire cant support it, or wildfire are supported?
