Something’s up with the app drawer.  At first, I thought I was going crazy, but I’ve had some more time to play with it.  Currently using LLX 8.8.6 – mecure (r1257), but I believe this started at least one update before that version

Any time I try to launch an app that is already running from the app drawer, LL just returns me to my home page.  If I have a shortcut on my homescreen and try to relaunch the app from there, it works fine.  If I relaunch the app from Android’s recent apps list (long press home), then the app launches fine.  If I kill the app from the recent apps list and then try to launch from the app drawer, then the app launches fine.

First of all, I love Lightning Launcher and love the newest updates. As soon as I saw LLX hit the Play Store, I didn’t hesitate for a second to purchase.

Found a couple of issues with LLX so far. When starting it the first time and it loads my configuration from the original Lightning Launcher a couple things are missed.

1) Screen gestures aren’t imported. I use swipe up to open my app drawer and double tap to show my status bar. Neither worked after the first load and I had to set them up again.

2) Hidden apps in the app drawer are no longer hidden after switching to LLX. I had to rehide them.

3) When applying an update to an app from the Play Store that has an updated icon, LLX won’t update the icon. I tried hitting refresh, but that didn’t do it. I eventually got it to update by going to customize and selecting to use the default icon again. This can be replicated by reverting to the originally installed version of YouTube which has a white block with YouTube written in red and then updating to the newest version which had a red button with a white arrow in it for the icon.

Keep up the great work! You have, by far, one of the best, most customizable and fastest launchers on the market.
