Hello
I just bought Nova Launcher and set it to loon like Pixel Launcher, the only thing I cannot set is to show the weather info next to the search button.
Anyone knows how to set it? I already give nova location permission.
In Nova’s Settings menu is “Desktop.” Jump in there, and change the following:
Search Bar Style: Select the “G” logo with the white oval, then tap “Bar color” and set it to white. Scroll down and select the colored “G.” Finally, tick the “weather” box at the very bottom, then back out of this menu.
Note: For some users, “Weather” doesn’t show up here. Instead, it’s hidden away in Nova’s “Labs” menu—to enable this, long-press the volume down key while in the Nova Settings menu. The Labs option will appear and you can enable Weather.

Thank you! I had to enable "Labs" to see the weather option.

Stock Captivate 2.1 Éclair. ADW launcher.
I had an app freeze up the phone. Had to remove battery and restart. Now the Master Bar (or whatever it is called) at the bottom no longer has the Apps icon in it! The other two are still there.
I now have no way to get into the primary apps list--can run only those that have shortcuts on the home screens. I cannot find any way to get the Apps icon back.
Help, help help please. This is a major fail.
Make sure your desktop is unlocked first ...
tap the screen, hold, then select "launcher actions" -> open/close app drawer
you should have a link to open the apps.
then you can drag and drop the link to the dock.
Or enable the awesome option in adw settings that let's you swipe up anywhere on the screen to open the app drawer.

While on your homescreen press menu -> adw settings -> general behavior -> swipe up actions, and select open close app drawer.

OK. Cancel this question.
Out of the clear blue, it reappeared, but this really scares me. Had it not fixed itself, I would have had a serious deficiency in the phone.
except, previous shows a method (thanks) to recreate the icon, so it would not have been fatal.

Ooooooo...I like this one. Thanks.
Any other nice tricks/settings?
I installed it but the issue I am having is that when it is set as default, when the watch is woken up from motion, instead of my main window which I have set a clock showing, it displays the screen with all the windows available to choose...
My main window is check marked, but still, it's not what comes up automatically, rather the multiple window screen which wants me to choose one...
I hope I make sense.
Any ideas of how to fix that ?
btw,Nova was installed with Null v.03 ...
Thanks.
I saw that too. It brings up whatever setting you set up for "home" button. Change the Home Button setting to "None" or something you wouldn't mind coming up automatically. I have it set to the "Big Digital Clock".

Theres actually a way to disable LED for charging for the note 4, but its hidden within the settings app.
Heres how you can change the LED indicator settings.
1) download activity launcher from play store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher&hl=en
2) open app, tap on "recent activities" and change to "all activities"
3) Find the "Settings" tab, expand it and scroll down til you find "com.android.settings.Settings$DisplaySettingsTab"

I want to turn led off(Charging led) just when the screen is on and again automatically turn on when the screen goes off.
It is possible in stock ROM but now I am using Custom ROM and the led is turning on when the screen is on....

Hey guys,
So I just got myself a Vivo X Fold and I'm loving it. The OS feels so good but I was wondering if there was a way to change the icons ? Or even the launcher ? I can install other launchers but somehow can't find a way to set it to default. When I go back home it's still the stock launcher. I wouldn't mind it if I could change the icons but yeah.
Any help would be appreciated !
Thanks and have a nice day.
no and no.. no need to thank me, follow me for more tips.
This option only appears if you have created and signed into your Vivo account:
Go to Settings / Privacy / More Security Settings and toggle "allow alternative launcher". Make sure you go into the privileges for the new launcher and set it to autostart and go into battery and set it for high battery usage.
Hi, i just tried to do that with the launcher, what frcraig said, and it still goes back to the factory launcher. I created vivo account, logged in, allowed alternative launcher, set nova as default launcher and applied the battery savings settings, autostart, etc. Any other ideas?
actually i just went back in and unselected tap the home button to lock the system home screen and now it works!

Thanks a lot, it worked ! I can finally change my icons and launcher !
What alternative launchers out there support two separate screen layouts?
Or... like the stock Vivo launcher, show only one-half of the unfolded screen on the external one.

If I'm not mistaken the same place where the option to allow the launcher to be replaced is. It appears after you enable the first one.

Did you find an alternative? I'd really love to change the icons on mine.

Total Launcher is a good choice. Supports two separate home screens and you can customize everything...
