Is Google Experience Launcher (GEL) working on xperia sp? - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to know whether Google Experience Launcher is working with xperia sp. Because every time I try, it shows that 'Google search has force closed'.

Nope
I just tried it on stock 4.1.2, not working. Google search justs fcs.
Apparently in the beta version of nova launcher there is an option for a kikkat styled launcher... Check that out.

Only works on 4.2 - up, for example CyanogenMod 10.2. Works even with the "OK Google" voice command

Not google launcher.
This is kit kat launcher prime .

[R] Xperia Home ICS Version

I search everywhere but i don't find this launcher for my Nexus S, someone can link me (if exist)?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557091
I think that's what your looking for. Works on gingerbread and up. Pretty sweet launcher...doesn't play well with many widgets though unless your on GB ROM I've noticed. Hope I could help.

Thanks for the link it's the lighter/faster/smoother launcher I ever tried(after launcher pro, apex, nova, holo, trebuchet, stock...)! It lacks number of options but I'll still keep it.
Thanks again

Did you ever find an ICS version with resizeable widgets? If so share the love!

Stock Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher & Google Apps Extracted

NOTE
1 Just install the apks as a normal app unless you wanna push it to /system/app and make it a system app.
2 It should work for all the devices with Android 4.2 or above.
3 Anyway, if you are on Android 4.1 or below, you may still give it a try if there is no 'error parsing package' occurred.
4 The fix has to be extracted to replace the previous lib under system/lib, do not flash it.
5 If you are pushing the apks to /system/app or replacing the lib, ensure that the permission is set to rw-r--r-- to avoid FC.
Stock Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher --- Here’s what you’ll need to install:
1 PreBuiltGmsCore (Google Play Services 4.0) Download [Mirror]
2 Velvet (Google Search) Download [Mirror]
3 GoogleHome (Google Launcher) Download [Mirror]
UPDATE 1: Google Search Force Close fix:
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, for me I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US. (you may have to redo this step every time you restart --- if you experienced FC --- for non-rooted users)
OR
Please extract and replace the /system/lib/libgoogle_recognizer_jni.so with the one downloaded from THIS or THIS LINK. (permanent fix --- for rooted users)
UPDATE 2: "Ok, Google" search feature fix:
If anyone has a problem with the "Ok, Google" search feature, you have to get the English (US) language update. Under "Language and Input" --- "Voice Search"/ "Google Now Settings" --- "Voice", tap "Offline Speech Recognition" --- "All" and tap "English (US)" to update. After it is done, press home and it should be working! If you've cleared data on the app, it'll erase the update and you'll need to do this again.
Google Apps Extracted:
Contact and dialer are not added because they did not work while calculator and map are not added due to parsing error~The apps may not fit every screen perfectly due to different screen resolution
Calendar Download [Mirror]
Clock Download [Mirror]
If you're getting an install prompt instead of the update one, chances are this APK will refuse to install. This happens because this package's pname is com.android.deskclock, and yours is probably com.google.android.clock, so it's not installing as an update but rather as a separate app, and then failing because the same provider name has already been declared. The only way around this would be to freeze/uninstall the stock clock, as far as I can tell, which requires root. You may need to clear data for the Clock app after installation - otherwise it may FC on start.

Simple answer is "TEST" and spread the word.
Everything installs fine. Doesn't work properly on landscape though. Don't think its made for tablets waiting for it from nexus 7
Yes, in landscape widgets are hiding under a search bar and every time when I get back to home its launches my keyboard :?

Definitely not made for a tablet since its from the n5 factory image but a nice preview. Search bar is not centered but ok google works. I think that the launcher is not in aosp though from what I've read.

Just install Apex and make it default. I suppose that Trebuchet is integrated with CM, so you can't remove it maybe (you will have problems if Trebuchet.apk is missing I guess).
I froze it in TB and made nova launcher default and only one.
No problems, except in settings-homescreen I get nova settings and I lost crt off effect upon lock.

launcher for my old phone

Hey guys ,is there any launcher like nova ,go ,tsf shell which i can install on my phone ? Because i can not install nova launcher .
I prefer Apex launcher but you need least Android 4.0.
and without root there's no other way to get 4.0 , i guess
Try KitKat launcher 4.4, it's better than the Google one.

If you're looking for a fast launcher, Zeam launcher's always nice

For sure, the new kitkat launcher is smooth , light and more efficient than previous 4.3 or less versions.

Yeah, you are right. Go to settings-->> about phone-->>
There you find info about your phone. Also some five letters name of firmware, for example: "XXJVT", "DDJUT" etc.
Find the CF-Root for the specified firmware and flash using Odin. Now, you have rooted your device and install the ROM you want.
It's amazing how android is powerful, even dead we always can resurrect the system
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
I think that it is difficult to find a launcher for android versions below 4.0. For the best like nova or apex you have to upgrade to CM9+.

Replace Google Now in long press mid key

I am using cm12.1 without gapps. I am more fond of Aptoide.
My only concern is that I want some v assistant app to pop up while long pressing my mid onscreen key.
Is there any v assistant I can use which will fit in the description, as I won't be using Google Now, coz I don't have play framework installed, and also don't want to as well

Install Xposed framework then install GravityBox module to get what you want and more
Or flash another rom that has this customization such as AICP
