Lets see you Epic Desk tops. This is with:'ADW Launcher', and 'Beautiful widgets' with 'AirportOne' Skin.
Here's mine
Using manups text icons and launcherPro. Beautiful widgets small home for clock and set status bar to auto hide. New texts and email alerts show up on a counter above the text icons.
New baby so she is the featured wallpaper and mini icons right now.

Great pic. Would Manup's latest theme work? or do you have to wait for device specific builds?

When you do the 'swipe up action again the App Drawer Icon will be there. It's like a toggle.

Meh, I guess thats ok, but it kind of defeats the purpose of the whole glassy look of the launcher.

thank you SO much for that. I've been going nuts trying to figure out how to add my icons to that mini dockbar but couldn't figure out which option to enable it.

I don't use a Calendar so pardon this dumb question. From time to time I will hit or do something on my phone(I got no clue what I did) and the Stock Calendar appears,what causes the Calendar to pop up like that?
Thanks
What are you doing when this happens? Specifics

This what I am trying to figure out. So I posted here asking if there certain things "built-into" the phone that was used to make Calendar popup. Like is there some "shortcut" that causes this. It seems like I touch something on my phone screen and it pops up just not sure what I have done.
Thanks

Are you using a custom launcher or TouchWiz? On LauncherPro, you can customize a swipe action on the dock icons. Only thing I can think of is IF you were using a custom launcher and a swipe action was set to open Calendar.

Do you have a clock widget that also displays the date? If you do, they usually default to the calendar application when you touch the date, and the clock application with you touch the time.

Thanks that was it. I have Beautiful Widget Clock and Touching one area makes the Calendar pop-up.
Thanks again
Sup everyone? Is there a way to get the wallpaper to scroll across the different home screens? Is a mod needed? I used a 3rd party launcher (ApexPro) and it doesn't scroll either. All my HD wallpapers are cropped into tiny columns
atm i don't see any mod about this.
However, you can use another launcher like nova if you want this

I'm using sense.
However, i saw that with apex it will work, in the one of my friend it works..
Anyone know how to get the names of the apps to show up in the Apex apps drawer instead of just little icons. I swear Nova would allow for this.
No, I don't have that option ticked either to hide them in the settings. I'm at a loss as to why I only get the icons and not the apps name?

Ruduce the number of rows to 3. The default of 4 is too many and cuts off the names. You can find the grid settings under drawer settings. Change for portrait and landscape.

A perfect fix! Thank you sir :highfive:
Hi all,
What is the best launcher to install ?
The two things I want are to be able to hide apps, and to have to swipe up to access app drawer as opposed to having an icon for it.
I have tried a couple but the p20 original launcher always ends up taking over. Or with the Lawn launcher for some reason I could add the time/weather widget.
Thanks
Try Ruthless pixel launcher from XDA labs. (If it crashes go to settings and enable storage permission; Bug with pixel launchers on huawei phones)

Cheers, can you remove the Google search bar at bottom screen or is that there all the time? If so I'll download later!

Silly questions then.
I can't find in the settings:
Get rid of Google assistant on home page, and hide the useless apps in the app drawer I don't want to see?
Cheers!

It's right there in dock settings. "Bottom search bar" Disable the feed in the bottom of "At a glance" settings.
To hide apps simply long press, edit and tick hide app icon.

On the at a glance I only have the attached. And long pressing an app only gives me app info or some generic options?
Long press the homescreen to access settings. You sure you got the right app?

I have now, cheers! Does the date at the top pick up the weather when it syncs or will I need to download a new widget for date and weather in one?
Also how do you go about downloading different icon packs that will work with the launcher ?
Thanks for your help
Nova, Evie...there are many out there but these are my favorites. Huawei widgets don't seem to work on any custom launcher.
Evie Launcher has been my favorite for a really long time and matches both of your requirements. Plus, the ability to change Icon pack not only by pack but also one by one is a big plus. Smooth, clean and minimalistic and has a couple of cool features.

For me the best launcher which i always go back to is LawnChair and it's Google feed add-on.
It's a lot like the Pixel launcher but has a lot more settings.
Icon size, theming, weather provider, gestures, app hiding etc.
It's rapid too and fluid, and it's free
Make sure the launcher is set as the default one, if the 2nd launcher in use crashes then the only thing the system can do is revert back, if you're using lawnchair, use the latest version.
I have it installed and mine never reverts back.
Another way would be if you were rooted you could freeze the original launcher in titanium.
CPL wins hands down.

Late to the party
Most customizable. No contest
Total launcher.

Steep learning curve though
Long time on my previous phones I used Nova and Apex launcher. For 2 years now I am using Microsoft Launcher which supports icon notifications for free and I must say I'm still returning to it. I tried Evie launcher on my P20 Pro but for some reason it consumed the battery a lot. Microsoft launcher does not consume battery at all (always like 1 mAh <), its fast and stable, modern looking but different compared to "stock android looking" launchers.

I use Nova Launcher, as it gives me everything I need. If you have problems with reverting to the stock launcher you can try to lock the new launcher in resent
See this screen recording to know how
keeps on recovery from crashing all the time, ive changed the permissions as stated above as well
I use Nova, bought the prime when it was on sale awhile back for $0.50
Nova forever,
