[Q] How To Add Shortcut on the Bottom Row of Homescreen

Accidentally when I replace original MMS.apk with modified from padlad, I have lost message shortcut on the bottom row of homescreen. You can see it on the attachment.
How can I place the message shortcut on that row again? I have tried all tricks but it seems impossible.
Thank you for your help.

Thank you very much, Dr. Ketan!

Using rooted India ICS Note

Read above.

In my opinion Use Nova launcher. So much possibility to customize it for your test. You can put up-to 15 apps on scroleble bottom dock. TW is good but i never use it because missing auto rotate feature. In nova launcher you can use your phone in landscape too. try Nova launcher I bet you will never use TW again.
Cheers....
(If you like Nova launcher dont forgate to press thanks button)
.

I could not figure out the instructions that's why I asked again. I press option and then press edit.what next?

I am on the TW launcher(default Samsung note launcher).
It does not allow dragging anything to the bottom(fixed) row.
I tried Nova launcher too, but did not like it. Guess, the only solution is to go try some other launchers.
They require root permission, but no issues, I am already rooted.
Will a launcher slow down the system, or its sort of a replacement to TW launcher?

I tried Launcher Pro, as well as Apex. Did not like them. The widget list available in Touchwiz(like SPlanner) do not show up at all on third party launchers.
Looks like I will stick to my default TW!

I have created video guide will update it when i m in office, just leave a pm to me if i forget.

Trebuchet launcher hide apps

Does anybody know if theres a way to hide apps in the trebuchet launcher app drawer? I know other lauchers like Holo and Nova can do it, but it would be nice if the stock launcher for CM10 could do it too.

Nope. Cant be done.

Well, thanks for the to-the-point answer.
I figured as the primary launcher for such a customizable ROM like CM10, that might be something they looked into.
Any recommendations on launchers that can do this for free?

But like the androidlost app is able to hide itself from the app drawer, why can't I do that with other apps?

i know iam ressurecting an very old thread but its one of the first results searching for trebuchet and hiding apps in google so i think i shoult write the solution here.
i dont know for 10.0 but in 10.1 it CAN be done
unfortuante its an awefully hidden option
you have to go to setting - launcher - app - hideapps
i knew i saw it today when i walked trough the menus lol
upside it always shows all apps and you can simple toggle on of (unlike samsung touchwiz option)
but sadly the launcher is really the weak point here when it comes to organizing apps

Yeah haha, they finally put it into cm 10.1. That's why this thread died.

To anyone who might still want to hide apps in cm 12. and above ,just go to launcher options and down click protect app. Do what is neccessary and select apps you want to hide and protect

A little help please.

I come from an S5 to the note 5. Very nice phone but takes getting use to. My question is with the S5 in the app drawer there were 3 little dots in the top right corner you clicked on that and it had an option to hide apps you clicked on that and the app you wanted to hide and done now no one could see your app icon well this phone doesn't seem to have that option or if it does I can't find it any help please or is there an app that will allow you to hide your app icons?

Sort of the same concept, hit the top right corner - Edit - then disable the apps you want to hide.
If you still want to use it but have it hidden then I'm not sure.
I think there are launchers with that option available.

Nova Launcher

with note5 samsung has removed hide apps feature.. Also you can access three dots menu by touching and holding back capacitive key in the compaitable app or window..

I downloaded nova launcher prime cause the free one wouldn't let you hide your app icons. Wish the phone still had the feature like it did before. But all works now I can hide my icons. It's not that I don't use the apps I want to hide it's that I don't want everyone seeing what apps I have like my kids to start lol.

hi,
you will be surprised. I would guess about 95 % of the Samsung apps widgets work with Nova Prime I should know as i just again checked my Nova launcher widgets and most of Samsung apps widgets in TouchWiz, i can pin widget, in Nova.
good luck

Pixel Launcher APK

Hi Guys,
Just installed the Google Pixel Launcher to get more Google and less EUI feeling.
Found it @ http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...-launcher-7-1-1-3359438-android-apk-download/

Settings -> apps -> at the end of the window "default apps" -> launcher and select the default launcher

Just an FYI -
There are quite a few launchers you can try to see which one works best for you. Here's a couple other ones I've tried:
Nova Launcher
Action Launcher
Some of them have some nice/extra features with folders and theme settings (some parts required paid app). I'm currently running the HTC launcher (had to install several APKs). Lacks some of the newer features but looks better than EMUI.

Thanx for the info. I have one problem with this launcher the Google search bar doesn't work. Were you able to het that working?

Need to have Google app installed

For anyone that's having crash when choosing wallpaper, you just have to install Google's wallpaper app. It works without the pixel launcher too and has some beautiful wallpapers!

Hi
Hi i installed this launcher but i have a problem , i dont want to see the LeApps and other chinesee apps is there a way to hide them with another appplication like Nova launcher has the Hide Apps ? Thank you

I have found the Pixel launcher to be buggy. I'm all in on Nova Launcher. Custom icons, layout, tweaks, etc.

I really love this laucher. No problems whatsoever. Clean and simple.
If you want to use Google cards (swiping right from homescreen) install it as system app.

I haven't done anything else, just installed it as system app. If it is not system app, then cards will not work.

Launcher?

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)

Get rid of Google assistant on home page, and hide the useless apps in the app drawer I don't want to see?

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.

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,
