Dock background tint on stock MIUI launcher



Has anyone been able to get tinted background with a theme on stock MIUI launcher on v6, v7 or v8?
I was able to get the tinted dock with an iOS 9 theme in early days of MIUI v7 but now the same theme won't tint the dock on v6 or even v7.



Nova Launcher killing the battery! Help!



Hi Guys,

I have been using MI5 for over a month now and have noticed recently that there has been a real rapid battery drain on my phone even though on idle mode. And to my surprise, the top battery consumer is Nova Launcher. Now this is happening just since last week. There has been quite a time since I have been using Nova Prime (even on my earlier phones) and never has such bug been spotted.

Is there anyone else who has faced similar issue? If so, can someone help me with the solution?

(P.S. The app is not updated or something, I have tried clearing cache / data, even tried uninstalling-reinstalling).

Please help since Nova is my daily driver.

Thanks,
APA

New Launcher Idea

I've asked this question before but I'm looking for a Launcher alternative. Back in 1995 there was a PC operating system competing with Windows. I think it was called Xerox Tabs, but I cannot confirm that.
The home screen looked like a Franklin Daily Planner with Tabs on the side.
I'd like an Android launcher like that. I'd like to be able to customize the tabs, what opens each time you click the tab, and the over all appearance of the launcher.
I've seen something similar called Opus Dimini in iPad, but it's not a launcher. I've also used this:



But it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I think we would need more than just a theme, but really a launcher with pages that flip, and you can display anything from widgets to icons and folders.

Is anyone up to this? Or know of something that would work?
Thanks in advance.

How to setup SPMC as Launcher?



Hi guys,

I have an aftv2 rooted and using rbox pre-rooted 5.0.5 rom. I also tried pre-rooted 5.2.1 rom, and I would like to stay on this latest version, however I want to have the ability to click the home button and go directly to the homepage on SPMC.

As of right now, I tried pre-rooted rom 5.0.5 with firestarter but when pressing the home button it brings me SPMC but not on the homepage. (and it is glitchy, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't). So my understanding is that in order to achieve this, I have to setup SPMC as launcher. How can I do this? I already downloaded SPMC launcher apk, and read a lot of threads with no concrete answer. Right now it seems that the only option is to install xposed and rbox mods. Is this correct? or is there any other option?

And I assume the rbox mods to set up an alternative launcher still works on pre-rooted 5.2.1 rom?

cheers

Can't set any other launcher as default on EMUI 4.0 ANDROID 6.0.1 kiwi-L24.



Pretty much what happens is, I download it at the play store, and open the launcher. It works fine, but when I push the home button, it goes back to the stock launcher. Every time, I try to set a launcher as the default one, my screen just kind of jumps from the bottom up, and nothing happens. For the Google Now launcher, It gives me the prompt to either cancel, or go into settings. After selecting settings, it does the weird jump again. Kind of getting annoyed, since the stock Emui launcher doesn't have an app drawer. I tired it rooted, and unrooted. I do not have busybox installed, so I'm stumped. Is there hidden settings somewhere to change the default home launcher? I can't find it unlike the previous version. Maybe someone who has had the same problem as me, can shed some light into this problem. Thank you.

Nova Launcher on OP3 ?



I have nova Prime, have used Nova for years of phones. The one issue I have with it is no shadow feature on the stock icon them.. You simply can't have a colorful or brighter style wallpaper if you don't have shadows !
Does anyone else use nova launcher and agree/disagree and if not nova, what do you use instead of nova for shadow enabled icons ?

About Nova Launcher



Hey guys, I'm about to buy the Huawei Mate 8 and I was wondering; If I install Nova Launcher (and personalize to my preferences the phone - I want all my apps in a place, not in the homescreen), does it remove some important functionality? I mean, I want to use the fingerprint scanner and the camera app, I haven't used an Android phone for about 2 years or more so that's why I'm asking things that you might find obvious.

Thanks for your help :) :good: .



[Q] Is there a way to show Huawei Themes Icons on Nova Launcher? (No Root)



I'd like to know if there is a way to show the stock huawei icons which come with the themes, because I see that in other launches the icons can be aplied, but no in Nova in non root devices

Please port the marshmallow launcher of samsung for our mate 8.



Big launcher problem.



Hello, yesterday i installed sense 8 home launcher on my TURBO Clark ROM which was nice i really enjoyed the launcher. But today i decided to try another ROM so i wiped and then flashed the new ROM as usual but when it booted up, the launcher was still there and i cant find it anywhere on the phone and can't uninstall it. I later tried to wipe all my internal storage which didn't work either so now every ROM i install there's a stupid HTC launcher... How can i get it away?? Thank you.

HTC SENSE 8 BETA (LAUNCHER) - Working on Moto G 2015



Htc launched a Beta program recently for testing HTC SENSE 8 launcher for NON HTC Devices.
Someone from the beta program uploaded the apk file on apkmirror and luckily it works with our Moto G 2015 (it should work with all non HTC devices above kitkat)

Although it is in beta, it is really smooth and pretty stable.
Bugs(That I found) : Google Now on Tap Force Closes Htc Sense Launcher. Google now on tap can be used from any other app.

Status: Working on Stock optimised and Stock ROM. (Should work with other custom ROMS as well)
If it shows any error in installation:
==> check if unknown sources option is on in settings > security
==> go to Apps > All Apps > select Google Play Services > Clear Cache (And make sure you are on the latest
Google Play Services)
==> go to Apps > All Apps > select Google Play Store > Clear Cache and Force Stop
==> Make sure no other HTC application(HTC Sense 7 apps and widgets) is installed prior to this installation.

Icon Packs from playstore work perfectly. (REQUIRES ROOT)
Go to Themes app and then sign in to your htc account. If not made an account then sign up for a new account
apply any icon pack from the htc theme store.

then select the Icons.apk of your desired icon pack (Links Below) and copy it to : /data/data/com.htc.launcher/files/.htc_theme/
Replace existing Icons.apk if asked.
Go to settings > Apps > Htc Sense > force stop.

the icon packs will be applied.

I am providing icon packs(free) from playstore which are modified to work with htc sense launcher.
If you want to convert any other icon pack to make it compatible with sense launcher then below is the icon pack converter made by @BBs19 all credit goes to him/her.

Iconpack to Sense 7 Converter

How to use:
1. Download the .apk file of your iconpack. (You can use http://apk-dl.com/ if the iconpack is free)
2. Run IconPackConverter.exe
3. Select your .apk file.
4. Wait for the process to complete. You can see the current status on the top left corner of your screen.

After successfully converting your icon pack, you can follow the displayed instructions to apply the iconpack.

Requirements:
- Java 7 (JRE 1.7)
- Root (for applying the iconpack on your phone)

#How to Apply iconpacks [Root Required]#
1. Copy the converted Icons.apk to: /data/data/com.htc.launcher/files/.htc_theme/
Replace existing Icons.apk if asked.
2. Restart Sense Launcher process or reboot phone.

Nova Launcher Customization on OnePlus 3



Light Speed Animations
If you a quick-silver animation fan you will surely love this tweak. We bet you will see a remarkable change in animation performance.
Nova Settings > Look & Feel and then tap on Animation speed.
Now tweak at your will.


Hide Dirty and Misused Apps
Android Apps are cluttering the App drawers and reducing the productivity of App drawers. Now in Nova launcher hide all the unused Apps from the App drawer. To call back any apps you can use inbuilt app search function in Nova launcher to reach even hidden Apps. Cool right?
You can find these settings at Nova Settings > Apps & Widget drawers > Drawer groups section > Hide Apps

Two-paged Dock

This is me personal favorite setting in Nova launcher. It is great experiences having 2 pages in your home screen dock. In here I can have 2 rows of Apps of my choice. To access different pages just swipe the dock and you are in the new row.
To access this tweak go to Nova Settings > Dock > Dock pages.


Gestures
If you are a Nova Launcher fan surely you might be well aware of awesome gestures it has. But everyone just misses one secret gesture. It can be integrated with above tweak too. Just long tap an icon and select Edit options. Set swipe action to any specified app or App search. I personally prefer App search for the home button.
