[Q] How to use 2 home apps

Hi guys!
I'm currently using amazing ADW launcher EX and I just stumbled upon launcher 8 and I would like to use both. Is there any posibility to make- for an example - home button to switch between launching one and another launcher?
Sorry for my English.

If you dont set either as default app then i thibk every time you press home button it will ask which you want to use.

Yes but I was hoping that it could work the way I mentioned. Claystone launcher works this way for example. I was hoping for some third party app that could swtich home apps in a sec

Not sure whether this is what you search for, but "Home Switcher" by ymst (free in the Play store) lets you switch between your installed launchers.

No problems here.. is data working properly and also location services?
also if you press power and then home button you can take a screenshot

The setup for the TV App has become corrupted (nobody here can tell you why)
You can go into Apps-> Sense TV (& TV) -> Force Stop & Clear Data
Reboot and try again

I get that first error message also. Don't know what's going on everything else works.

How to Get to Home Screen With Pen

Doing some research the Note 2 had a bunch of gestures you could draw with the pen, a "<" for going back, or drawing from top to bottom to go home. I am trying to find a way to get to the home screen without pressing the home button. Mainly when you have your pen out. Any suggestions?

I was gonna make a how to thread about this.
Grab this app.

I would think that app would interfere with my magazine function

Why not just tap the home button with the S pen?

You can still use the magazine by swiping starting on the screen, I like this because I am not getting accustom to starting my swipes off of the screen. So to me it feels like I no longer have that magazine function!

Tapping the home button with the S Pen just like pressing it with your finger? The goal is to alleviate the number of button presses, as to prolong the life of the home button.

I'm using Floating Toucher to get to the home screen, lock the device and other things.

Where's all the Gear Fit people.

It seems all the Best Buy stores are sold out, yet I don't see a lot of people discussing the fit. I was able to track one down from a sprint store.
I love the thing.
I can't seem to find if it has the ability to double tap screen to do things.
How do you guys like the fit?

Its pretty cool. I'm using it on my nexus and got most of the features working. I don't know what that double tap feature is. When you double tap with two fingers it opens the settings menu. And when you press the home button 2 times it opens whatever you have it set to. Maybe that helps.

What features aren't working on your Nexus? I was thinking of flashing an aosp ROM, but did not want to lose functions. How are notifications?

Am I the only one that hates the lack of swipe up to Google now

I like android 6.0 its fast, reliable and now on tap is great but I have become accustomed to swiping up to check my Google now, and I don't understand why it's gone. Can you not use now on tap and the swipe to Google now, I used to just swipe up check the weather, traffic or whatever I needed but now I have to hold it down wait for it to search a screen I don't care about then tap the Google now square or I have to go find the app. I'm sorry but I seriously hate it its terrible.

I don't know I have never had that problem maybe that's why they changed it, I feel like other people that actually use Google now and not just the search feature would miss it.

Agree, was confused when I tried swiping up, tap and hold takes much longer in my opinion than the previous swipe up

I am using nova launcher and I have set it up so swipe up will bring up google now, this way I don't miss it...

Snap.

But I think it only works from a NL screen, not while in an app.
