[Q] Google Now Launcher - LG G Flex

Does anyone know how to install the GNL on the G Flex? It always gives me an error whenever I try to sideload it. The device I'm using is running stock 4.2 on Sprint.

Do you have unknown sources checked and what's the error. I have been using it for the last last week and just installed like any app

I tried it on my first Flex, and couldnt get it to work either, but havent tried it on this one..
I thought you need 4.3+ for it to work correctly..

I was under the impression the Gnl was only for kitkat

I think that's just the launcher style. That drove me crazy and no continuous scroll, but losing my double tap was my main reason to do it. Thinking about it you could probably just use xposed and change the dpi to fix the icons

I ran it for about 2 weeks. No issue. Maybe its cuz I have an older version from a kit kat rom that was for a GS4. As soon as you install like normal youll notice it has an update for search on the play market. It updates just fine no issue. "Ok Google" from home screen works too .
Here's a dropbox link to the one I used for a while on here.

Just download and install like normal. No need to move it to system and change permissions. Works fine with just click and install. As soo as you install dont open. Just hit home button and it will ask which for default. Click Google Home

As for dbl tap just set it in gravity box for the notification bar or download "tap tap off" on play and set it up to do the same thing.

Nova Launcher

For anyone running Nova Launch on their Gear...
How can we get some sort of actual watch functionality?
It's cool having a full-fledged launcher on my watch, but it would also be
pretty damn nifty to have a clock on my watch
Widgets are no-go, so that's out of the question...
Is a lockscreen the answer? and how could that be arranged?
I was able to get the clock/weather widget on Go Launcher Ex. The weather isn't working, but the clock is a go.

With novalauncher, move the app apk after installing from data/app to system/app and reboot. Then you can use widgets. Minimalistic text is a good widget to start with because you can customize everything about the time, date, battery etc. It was easier to set it up on my phone, export the config, push it to the watch and import it.

Looks very good!
Did You succeed with creating shortcuts to specific contacts or "quick dial" list or in any other way to see "all contacts" AND "preferred contacts" ?
I am kind of waiting for Samsung to update the firmware, but as this is not happening - I will probably root and install NOVA as I use it on Note3 anyway
Battery widget JINASYS is also very nice.
What about power use with the background - did You notice if it is shorter? - amoled screen draw no power when it is black, so I'd rather keep the background black.

You can add shortcuts, widgets, quick dials and basically anything you can do on your phone when you have the APK in the system directory. Also I am getting 2-3 days battery life from my gear atm, my wallpaper is now mostly white and it still doesn't affect it very much. The latest firmware update for the gear did wonders for battery usage.

So I switched to DK 4.0, changed my DPI to a more reasonable 320 and now this weather widget wont stop popping up on the lockscreen.
Does anyone know what to do to get rid of it?
The "Settings > Device > Lockscreen > Multiple Widgets" option appears to be gone in DK from what I can tell, and I can't long-press it away either.

Yeah I am using the GPE theme but somehow the option came back after I just flashed another theme.

[Request] Droid Ultra circle widget/launcher

Hello, I have a request that might not be possible. I've tried every circle widget/launcher combo I can find but cannot find one that works fully. Most of the launchers work they just need to be resized for our resolution. However not a single one of the circle widgets work. They always say incompatible 3rd party launcher even tho it's a moto launcher. I'll upload the one I've used up until lollipop broke it and if anyone could help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried Xwidget? There are many circle widgets (llok like Motorola Atria and other devices). They are all free.
Out of curiosity is this what you fine people are looking for?

The launcher that comes with the XT1575 is the Google Now Launcher. Hence the reason the circle widgets are incompatible. You would need to use the launcher the widget came with.
nope that is nova launcher and I'm pretty sure it would work with google now
Confirming that it works with stock Google Now launcher also just no default way to size it correctly....
I'm still assuming that it's the other one most people want
but anyways here is the link to the nexus 6 forum method

With the new Turbo 2 and Maxx2 coming out Friday, maybe we can get a direct port? They appear to have the widget in the pictures.
