Are you able to to get to the Google Now panel by swiping right? The way I read the XDA article about this release of the launcher, as long as you are on a Pixel or Nexus device, root is not required (even though I have root) and it is not required to be installed as a system app.
Quote from the XDA article:
"All you have to do is download the Pixel Launcher that we uploaded below and install it onto your device. It doesn’t need to be installed onto the system partition (meaning it doesn’t need root), and if you already have the Pixel Launcher installed then it will just install right on top of it. Enjoy!"
I have tried installing the new launcher over the older one I had installed and doing a clean install of the the new .apk you referenced and the .apk referenced in the XDA article and I cannot get swipe to the right to take me to the Google Now panel. The calendar/weather widget is working fine so I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Any ideas?

I think XDA post means that Pixel 2 launcher itself doesn't require root to work, but the google now feature still need root access.

Thanks for your response. Some additional research I did (which I won't bore everyone with for such a small issue) also seems to indicate that Google Now will work with the new Pixel Launcher without it being installed as a system app. If it ends up that it does need to be installed as a System app I'm going to switch back to Launcher3, which lets Google Now work without Launcher3 being installed as a System app, and it has some other nice features.

There is a rootless mod version here . However, the vanilla pixel 2 launcher still need to be installed as a system app.

I saw that earlier, I really don't want to do a bunch of work arounds. If I get no other by the time I wake up tomorrow afternoon I'm going back to launcher3. It worked perfectly for me without modifications and I have it backed up with Titanium Backup so it's just I simple restore to get back to where I was. Thanks.

Seems to work out of the box with version 1.2. No work arounds required

Absolutely, Launcher3 version 2.1 works great but I have seen some decreased battery life using it. I like the new calendar/weather widget and the bottom search bar in the new Pixel launcher from the Pixel 2 so that is why I switched. Both of those work great after I installed the new Pixel launcher and my battery life increased quite dramatically, but I can't get swipe right to access the Google Now panel to work. From the XDA article here, the way I read it is if you have a Pixel or Nexus phone the .apk does not have to be installed as a system app for the Google Now panel to work:
"We should note that the Google Now panel will not work if you install the official version below on a non-Google Nexus or Pixel device as the Pixel Launcher needs to be installed as a system app in order for it to show the Google Now panel"
It indicates the same in the install instructions:
"It doesn’t need to be installed onto the system partition (meaning it doesn’t need root)"
There is a modded version that allows the Google Now panel to work on non Pixel and Nexus devises but I have a Nexus so I don't think I should need to use the modded version:
"Alternatively, you can install this modified version of the Google Pixel Launcher by XDA Senior Member paphonb. His version works on non-Google devices and allows you to use the Google Now panel"
Maybe I am just reading it incorrectly but it reads that the unmodified version will allow swipe right to access the Google Now panel.

mine swipes right.

That's the modded version from the XDA article I linked. I was hoping to go with the official unmodded version but it appears that that is not going to work. Thanks.

The original one will show Google now if you use Titanium (or similar app) to make it a system app.

I use Magisk for root. Do you know if making it a system app with Titanium Backup will mess up passing the SafetyNet check?

I converted it to a system app using Titanium Backup and it doesn't appear to have affected the SafetyNet status. If Launcher3 is updated to include the calendar/weather widget and the bottom search bar I'll probably switch back as I like some of the other features it offers.

I actually just found that there is a Magisk module called "App Systemizer" that would have probably done what you where looking for also.

guys there is a link to the newest google wallpapers.on this youtube video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97-4GjMzOgw
i installed them and it fixed the white "G" in the search bar to the multicolored one.
it looks amazing

Thanks for the tip. I'm pretty new to Magisk and I haven't taken a look at any of the modules yet. I will need to do so soon.

Wrong times in Now Cards
Hello everyone. The application is installed as a system. Everything works as well, except for the time of the sports cards. Shows my upcoming games with a wrong time zone, not my local time. This happens only on the preview of the football match itself (shows 2:45 PM). When clicking on the card with the additional information, the correct time is displayed (in this case 21:45). See attached images.
Where to search for the problem - in Pixel Launcher, in Google App, or my account? If it matters, I delete the data of both apps and set them up again without success ...
By returning an old version of Pixel Launcher this problem is gone.

What is the best way to get the Pixel bottom Navbar? I see a lot of screenshots with the Pixel Navbar. I'm running Pixel 2 Launcher, rooted.

Highly the final version !!! I prefer to stay for the moment on MOKEE

I know they're different, which is exactly why I asked. If they were the same I'd already know the answer. I wanted to see if I need to replace the zx128 one. The response I received from him didn't imply that he's even working on Donut support until it's officially released.
Thanks for the info. I'm gonna try it when CM 4.2 is released.
wow, an app manager that actually has batch install!!
curvefish never seizes to amaze me.

got this app, and its rly rly cool .
I really like this app, but wished it also backed up settings, like home screen icons, call logs etc.. otherwise I need to still continue using mybackup pro.
When restoring the apps with this app, do they show up under 'downloads' in the market?

Pretty sure that's a NO. While I don't have this app, I've read that the only way to show under "My Downloads" is to install through the Market.

No, cause you need to download app with Market to show up in My Downloads. Or have a root access.
Changes v1.4.3:
AppControl moved to Android SDK 1.6
Tested for QVGA screens
Added new header size for QVGA
Added search for Installer, you can search with software or hardware keyboard.
I just dl'd this and was uninstalling and getting a refund within an hour- it fc'd everytime I opened it on my rooted phone. I did read it does not play nice with Locale, but I am not sure that is why it constantly crashed- chris
Im willing to give it a go again, but need to know what is causing the fc's- another app? The rom im using? what?- chris
Just un-installed Locale, now dl'ing app control again- will update with results- chris

It works good with installed locale. I don't know what happened to you, can you send log when it force closed, you can get it with log collector. Send email to: curvefish [at] gmail.com
Liked it because of the mass install but is there anyway to make the installation automated?
didn't keep the app because I have to monitor the installation process and keep clicking install & done.

I would also like to see a automated batch install process. I currently use a script I made and use with Gscript.
Also, is there an option to store an older version of an app when installing a newer version? With all of the ROM updates I would like to be able to store older versions of some of my apps. That way if I update to a newer version and it doesn't work I can revert to the older version that did work.
If it would do those two things I would purchase it.

I'm currently working on batch install, but you should have root to make it works.

Sure you can make backup of your apps, and then get back to older version if you need.
And new features that will come soon is: backup and restore to/from email.

So, I could actually have four versions of the same app - the current version and three older versions - and, install the one I want without disturbing the others?

Downloading this to see what you did! How do you intend to "fix" GoogleSearch?
I have Velvet installed on my cm-10.2 (user app). It would FC almost immediately using the libgoogle_recognizer_jni_1.so from the thread. This is closed-source armv7 stuff so sort of cuts us out.
EDITED POST: What I thought was happening was simply wrong: Not the 4.4 Velvet. With what I did have, the following still valid:
That armv7 precompiled close source stuff kills us (if Google is to support "older" devices, it needs to make armv6 precompiled jni's available or make it all open source so we can do them!). However, when I was experimenting with my current configuration, somehow, Google Search's speech input came up. "Initializing en-US." (I have that srec but NOT symlinked in), and then ... it took my voice and used it. Just once, but it did do it! Not an illusion. So maybe this can be fixed up.
EDIT: Conspicous by it absense is the "PrebuiltGMSCore." I did install that, user upgrade to my previous gmscore. Needed by Play and the thread claims that its "prebuilt" version is required by Google Now.
Ext2 partition with cronmod causes boot loop, but nice integration of Google now
nvm. my partitions were messed up
Google Search FC Fix
Hey heres how to fix google search forces closes! Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
Enjoy

This has been bandied about on the thread, sometimes successful, sometimes not.
In our case, I doubt you will see any benefit. I tried it. First off, there is no offline recognition currently working on our device. No off-line options in settings (if one can get that far), no language kits, nothing.
At our stage, Google Search FC trying to initialize/access off-line voice recognition which is armv7 compiled. Bingo. Edit: The Rashed's old modded version apparently neutralized that call. Clicking mic would, of course, FC.

I have Velvet installed on my cm-10.2 (user app). It would FC almost immediately using the libgoogle_recognizer_jni_1.so from the thread. This is closed-source armv7 stuff so sort of cuts us out. However ... brainstorm: Extracted the jni from Rashed's Jan 7 GoogleNow.apk and lo and behold, it starts up, one can do searches, access cards, etc. I can get online voice recognition into it using the voice search assistant widget shortcut and I have that using overlays covering Google Search's mic icons (which are guaranteed FC). Not the most fluid but the thing works.
With the thread's JNI, launcher worked, Google Search FC in a loop. WIth Rashed's, launcher does not find Google Search (which really is the launcher--GoogleHome is a stub and maybe the wallpapers).
With the thread's JNI, I could get to settings->voice if I did it quick enough (before the FC). Offline options not shown. With Rashed's jni, setting->voice FC immediately.

The voice recognition did work for me a few times. I dont know how, but it did. Unfortunately, the FC.
Fortunately, I was able to get a screenshot before the FC popup.

Different thing: I installed it but can't get over the initial settings because the Android keyboard gets FC all the time. Just a corrupt download?
I tried to edit the rom via the Oone editor and install the keyboard i normally use as user app but that won'T help me get over the damn initial settings
Is there actually a way to set a different keyboard than the AOSP as default?
Edit: Found the solution 3 seconds after posting -.- I didn't have the German pack in the LatinME installed, but chosen in the initial settings. That made it crash.
However the question how to set an alternative keyboard as default still interests me, though it might be a little OT

If you want to set alternative keyboard as default, you first have to install it in phone memory and not SD card.
Then i guess, that's it. Now select the keyboard and enjoy!

That's not what I meant I meant rather somehting like replacing the stock keyboard with an alternative (MessagEase in my case), so that it basically 'identifies' this as stock keyboard.

Just place the apk in /system/app/ and change permission to rw-r--r--
Or simply install the app and make it a system app through apps like Link2SD or /system/app mover

Umm.. i have already included the statusbar and the navigation bar gradient. And yes, its a bit messy in some of the apps. I guess because of the Holo light theme. what if i edit the Holo light background to make it black in the statusbar area?

I have included Google+, Gmail, YouTube, Hangouts, and Search as they don't show up in the market currently.
Modified the updater script to enable the navigation bar and set the default density to 240. Patch is still pending to enable the status bar, so currently there is no status bar even with full gapps.

Yes sir, if you use the leanback gapps it will go through the pairing tutorial automatically, if you don't use gapps or you try other full gapps (make sure they don't have maps), then just push the bottom button to initiate pairing.
It runs good, fast and smooth. As you mentioned mic is not working. Another issue so far, when you uninstall an apps it doesn't remove/uninstall. Thanks for your great work. Nice to see someone is working on nexusplayer. :thumbup:

I noticed the uninstall failure last night too. I'll try to logact and see what's wrong.
EDIT: Uploading a new gapps package had to remove the CanvasPackageInstaller.apk and just let the regular PackageInstaller take care of it
Hello, thanks for building this and the recovery. I dirty flashed this over stock and it's working good , it seems snappier than stock . Live TV through kodi plays better now , it wasn't very watchable before, even the HDhomerun view app plays the video better .. Thanks..
Hello, your cm20150420 build will not install , I get , signature verification failed . so I reflashed your build from 0419 and new gapps to fix the apps not uninstalling problem. Thanks..
I got that as well figured it was my fault... Is there a link to the older build?
Hey @dhacker29 !
I'd like to thank you for this, and at the same time ask if we had access to LeanBack App source, or if you are adding them in post-build?
Also, would you at all be interested in taking a look at creating something similar to this for the ADT-1? (The developer box that Google sent out after IO in 2014). We have ADT-1 kernel source, & a repacked CWM Recovery, but no device tree, which makes Custom ROMs fairly hard to do.

Unfortunately Google shipped the leanback launcher as a prebuilt in the proprietary blobs package so no source to modify there. Without having the adt-1 it would be hard to build a device tree. What are the specs? Processor graphics chip etc

That sucks.
Spec list here: http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2jlz3z/the_developer_adt1_vs_the_nexus_player_vs_amazon/
Note: they say that some have the Tegra K1, but I've had a few, and friends have a few, and I have only seen Tegra 4's.
I had previously heard of extracting a device tree from a boot IMG I don't know if that still applies, I'll try to find a link.
Its pretty awesome actually compared to the NP. If you want one, jut Google it, and fill out the ADT request form. When they ask what you will do with it, just fill I'm something like "security research/app developement", and with your history, you are bound to get one. I have links to self made CWM images, but I doubt they'd help you much. I can also provide system dumps, etc. Just let me know if your interested.
Does this have cm's "Move app to SD"

Im using xda app and I don't see the screenshot tab.
So far I installed and used the full gapps package. I found no status bar or navigation bar, and the cursor has a black box at times. Runs good though, remote to, except for voice. Using trebuchet to play with it. Are you planning on adding status bar and navigation in or do you advise using the leanback launcher? I liked using my mouse to navigate while i was on lollirock, but can't because of this and can't go backwards from most screens.
Any way to root using recovery?

The statusbar should be present if you used the full android gapps. Also, if you want soft keys, add this to your build.prop

[ZIP] Updated Emoji + Google Keyboard Installer from Android 6.0.1 [12-07-2015]

Straight to the point, here is a flashable ZIP of the emoji set from Android 6.0.1.
Pulled from Nexus 6P 6.0.1 factory images.
Tested on Moto X Pure Edition running Android 6.0.
This may or may not work on versions prior to 6.0.
Test at your own risk. And it you do, MAKE. A. NANDROID.
What this replaces/updates:
/system/font/NotoColorEmoji.ttf
/system/font/NotoSerif-Bold.ttf
/system/font/NotoSerif-BoldItalic.ttf
/system/font/NotoSerif-Italic.ttf
/system/font/NotoSerif-Regular.ttf
EDIT: Added updated Google Keyboard 4.1.23104.2431559 (arm64) which displays all emoji selections. This was taken from the 6P factory image and de-odexed. This is for ARM64 devices only!
EDIT 2: Added ARM variant of Google Keyboard 4.1.23103.2419427 for devices that are not 64-bit. This was taken from the Nexus 5 (not 5X) factory image and de-odexed.

Google Keyboard version 4.1.23104.2431559 or newer is needed to show them all.
OP updated with the needed version. For now I've only come across the ARM64 variant.

Well, maybe we can take the keyboard from n6 or n5 factory images, which are not 64bit? My guess is that it will be a 6.0+ compatible tho :/

So you have to use Google keyboard to view these emojis?
Another confirmation of it working on 5.1.1. Only works on the Google Keyboard for sending. I can look back at old texts and now see the emojis. I honestly don't care too much about emoji, but my brother and a friend wouldn't stop using them, so thanks for this OP!
Can this be used on an unrooted system?

I know this thread is for Moto Style, but... You know... I tested on Galaxy S5 running 5.0 and Google keyboard doesn't work. The fonts work though.
I'm on the newest CM12.1 nightly for the Samsung Note 2. The emoji work great. The keyboard won't stop crashing. I'll try wiping /system and extracting the .zip and just install the keyboard through APK. I'll report back soon.

I'm using a Note 2 also, running a lollipop 5.1.1 rom, and I also get repeated force closes. Someone on this thread has a Note 2 and the AOSP 6.0.1 keyboard they're using crashes for him and me as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/aosp-keyboard-android-6-0-1-r3-t3266333/page2
I wonder what it is about the Note 2? We're all running different roms but the common element is the Note 2 device itself.
The weird thing is this:
I've been using the modded Google keyboard from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/mod-google-keyboard-updated-ios-9-1-t3232213
I uninstall it and then install these new Marshmallow keyboards (this one and 2 others that have come out around the same time). All result in keyboard crashes.
Here's the weird part: I remove the crashing keyboards and reboot. Verify it's gone, no longer in system/app, not in the manage apps list. When I try to reinstall my original keyboard apk it asks if I want to install an update to the existing app, which is weird because the app no longer exists! Clicking on install eventually results in the not very helpful "App not installed" message. Attempting to reinstall the apk using terminal emulator gave a little more info "Invalid URI". I assume restoring my nandroid backup would sort everything out but I can get my old keyboard back by copying a copy of it's installed folder (which I had saved) back into data/app (I never installed it as a system app), manually reset permissions of the files and subfolders and change owner to 1000 - System and reboot.
I have no idea what part of the system thinks the new keyboard is still installed.
Thanks for this. Working fine on my S6
So if I'm on stock MM MXP , do I flash both keyboard and emoji set?

Flash the font if you want to see the new emoji set instead of blank or crossed out boxes when someone uses them.
Flash the keyboard if you want to use the new emoji set (You'll also need to flash the font zip to use them.)

I'm not sure how the layout on those devices are for system apps, but on Nexus and Moto X Style and Pure it's as follows
Code:
/system
--/app
---/GoogleKeyboard
----GoogleKeyboard.apk
-----/lib
------/arm (or arm64)
-------libraryfile1.so
-------libraryfile2.so
You guys might have to move the library files from "/system/app/GoogleKeyboard/lib or lib64/arm or arm64" to "/system/lib or lib64" depending on your device's architecture.

My existing keyboard has the same structure you show above. There is no lib folder in my /system. This package uses the name LatinImeGoogle, same as my existing google keyboard. I just found an empty folder called LatinImeGoogle in data/lib-app. I wonder if that's causing any of my strange behavior.

[Theme][Substratum][01/11/2017] SwypeRow Theme

Hi.
This theme permanently adds the number row to the Swype Keyboard. Doing that it also adds two left\right arrow that allow to move into the text, and it allows the secondary character to be always present on every Swype theme:
- version 1.1 tested with the version of swype 3.1.2.3 (27/07/2017 in the Play Store). It should work also with older version, but i didn't tested. The version 2.0 of the theme is compatible with the version 3.2.2.3 of Swype (tested on 01/11/2017).
- It should work with a lot of languages, i've tried only italian and english (confirmed dutch and german from other users).
- This adds the number row and you can't remove that. In order to remove the number row you have to unistall the theme: advantage of this, you'll get the secondary character using the number row with all swype themes.
- Added the left\right arrows.
For details see this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-swype-row-t3297733
See the attached file for the result.
Sources: coming.
An incredible BIG THANKS to @djdarkknight96 on the Substratum section here on XDA. He helped me a lot with this.
I have installed Substratum 562 from Google Play and this Theme, but the Theme tells me it needs Substratum version 712.

I can't seem to get it to install. This is my first time with Substratum, so I may have some fundamental error. But, installation proceeds smoothly, but then ends with:
"The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name"
I tried uninstalling, which acts like it works, but installation again gives the above error message.
This is on a rooted Samsung Tab S3, with the Samsung Substratum add-on. Substratum is 815. Ideas, please.

It's the theme that gives error, or the substratum app? Also, if you get the error you shouldn't be able to uninstall the app, because it shouldn't be installed..

First, thanks so much for the original Xposed module and now this "fix" for Nougat. I didn't realize how much I needed it until I became stuck on a Nougat tablet and had to function without it.
This may be info overload, but this is what I'm seeing. I hope you can diagnose. I believe the error comes from Substratum itself, since it says your theme cannot be installed. Don't think I ever get to the theme. In order of events, I get the duplicate package message on first installation, so I figure there's some remnant of the theme so I uninstall it, which seems to work (I know: doesn't make sense if it was never installed). Then I try to install again and same error message.
I'm pretty bad at posting IMGUR pics, but here's an attempt to show you what I see. I select the theme checkbox on the right and then press the "paintbrush" icon at bottom right. It then shows options to install or uninstall. First I install, error; then try to uninstall, seemingly good; install again, error. I've also included a screen shot of the notification that says the theme compiled with no errors.
Should I select, or not select, the "toggle overlays" switch?

So, you get error installing it. Try uninstalling the app (not from the substratum app, uninstall the Swype row app) and then try installing it. It's enough to check the check box of this theme.
Sent from ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk
Still no joy. I tried uninstalling (via the system app remover) the theme. Retried installation with the same result.
Next, uninstalled the theme, Substratum itself, the Samsung add-on. Rebooted.
Installed Substratum 815 from the Play Store. Launched it and installed the Samsung add-on. As expected, it showed no themes. Installed "SwypeRow_Theme_1.1.apk". All good so far. Substratum shows the theme available.
But installation yields the same failure. I notice though that the system notifications show successful compilation and installation. I've also included a snapshot of the Substratum system settings in case there's some clue there. I appreciate all your help!
I don't know a lot about substratum. In the xposed thread there was an user that was using the Samsung add-on, he said that he did a lot of install-uninstall things before getting all good. Maybe try asking him.

I have Swype installed and enabled the substratum theme without error for Swype but the keyboard remains unmodified. Any ideas? Thanks.

I'm glad Nuance/Swype fixed the numbers + secondary idiosyncrasies, but those arrows that @robertogl adds in his mod are very very useful.
I never could get Substratum to work on my rooted Samsung Tab S3, despite help from the author. So I could never implement the Swype theme. With the advent of real Xposed for Nougat, I reverted to Swype 2.2 and re-installed the old Xposed module. Victory!
@robertogl I know you've moved on to a theming approach, but if you're ever inclined to update the Xposed module, you'd have one happy user here.
