unfortunately for me, it fails to install....on Preview 3

you wont be able to install it without root. it does not install like a regular app. you need to place it into either /system/app/ or /system/priv-app/ then reboot for it to install itself. stock you cant do that, with root you can.

I am curious why you want to update.
On my N6 Google app 4.1.29 etc is still working. Downgrade was necessary, else the Black Google Now launcher will become white instead of black.
Secondly I need to block Google app from updating.
Maybe you need to check your settings concerning auto updates.
Play store - My apps - Google app - above right 3 dots - auto update - check box.

Yes know what you mean. Because you are complete stock, I cannot see/find a reason when update settings are correct.

updating it to 5.2 changes googles layouts for google now(more colorful and better tiles for info), and it changes your app drawerer to a side scrolling version, instead of the m up and down version. i changed mine yesterday to see what the big deal is. to be honest, google now looks much better.

I'll be honest to. I am using dpi 384. And the Black Google Now launcher. I love it and the drawer has also side scrolling.
I wish I had the power to kick Google's ass to make sure we get a marshmallow with a Light/Dark Material switch.

The problem did not dissapeared. I'd installed google app 5.2 manually and it works but in playstore it is still 5.1. Factory reset do not work

Playstore updated to new 5.9.11 and the problem solved. Thanks all. Please close the topic

Sorry, but I don't seem to see the point of this thread, @BeansTown106 has a perfectly working launcher and thread, heck you even used his apk, so why download from here when you can get it from the source?

You have to use Ressurection Remix rom. You can find it there.

If you are on stock using xposed, then download flat style bar indicator module in xposed in that you can make like that customized label.

Nice launcher
Please create a flashable zip such that the default syestem launcher gets removed and this nexus launcher comes in place of that

In my Motorola it looks great. Thank you.

Bro, I think is not necessary, just disable it or use app like link2sd to uninstall it from system.

The google search bar isn't working how can I make it work

:c

WTF

Marshmallow
Works with Android 6.0.1?

Is this a bug???? How to solve??

Udpated to latest official PIXEL launcher. Also added flashable zip. Check OP.

It's official so with apk any, but you won't be able to use google app, when you swipe left unless you flash flashable zip.

[MODULE] Chrome Home Button

Hi guys,
I was looking for a way to bring back the home button in Chrome like in the old versions, and I found a method. Now I made this module for personal use but I'd like to share it with you because it might be useful for you too.
Note: the apk file was not made by me, it was in old CM roms as system app, so don't credit me for this. I'm not the author, as years ago a similar module was already published here on xda somewhere, I just found the apk and build the new module and tested myself.
Please note: since I didn't develop this apk, I am unable to fix any kind of possible bug. I just made the module.

Feel free to report if it works on other Chrome releases, I will update the OP.

On some phones it's enabled by default, but for example on pixel stock that button doesn't exist.

Cache and data cleaned. Unfortunately unsuccessfully, maybe Chrome needs to be a system-app? It's a system app on my tablet but not on my phone.

Yes, that could be. Not sure about it, but since I have it in system folder too, maybe only as system app works.

I think for that is better use App Systemizer since it's made specifically for these kind of actions

Did you Enable a chrome flag to get that?

No, I went to settings in Chrome, selected 'homepage' and turned it on

I do not think it's a good idea to depend on using another module to use it, because without Chrome in /system, your module is completely non-functional.
Btw could you put this module in the Magisk Repo?

How to install it?

Chrome Canary has the Home Button flag in it, haven't checked Dev tho.

Can not install rootless Pixel Launcher after updating to Pie (App not installed)

Hello,
Yesterday, I updated my A2 to pie (using the VPN method) and I tried to download and install the rootless pixel launcher (launcher3-aosp-debug.apk) but during the installation it stops and an error with ,,App not installed" comes up. I know that Android Pie already uses a launcher that looks exactly like the pixel launcher but it isn't called ,,pixel launcher" in the settings (it is called ,,Quickstep") and it is missing one feature that I really like (swiping down on the home screen for notification bar). Since the app isn't labled as pixel launcher I don't really get why I can not install it.
Here is the ,,error"

}
Edit:
Installing Lawnchair 2 from apkmirror fixed my problem, it has the swipe down for notification gesture and it even comes with a dark theme for google feed (which doesn't work for the default Quickstep launcher)

find a solution?

Better try CPL (Customizable Pixel Launcher)
To install launcher3-aosp-debug.apk you need to uninstall quickstep

What I didnt mention in my thread is that I can actually install the app but I doesnt let me install the google feed addon. Do you know how to get rid of quickstep without rooting or unlocking the bootloader?

There is no way that you can uninstall system apps without root. . .
Give a try for CPL (if you are interested) . . . .

Don't delete quickstep if you use the Pie Gestures!
I did that without knowing that part of the Gestures' code is written inside the launcher.
The only way you can use a third party launcher with Gestures without loosing the animation and the ability to access the app drawer from anywhere, is having Magisk installed, the latest Lawnchair v2, and the Lawnstep Magisk Module...
I've tried everything, every stock pixel launcher apk... everything, it isn't worth the time because when an OTA comes out, you need to restore the device and unroot...
Otherwise...you are good to go!
PS: you can delete system apps without root, you need a computer and using ADB command you can do it, I don't remember the command but it's easy to find on Google.

Google at a glance.

Try with Trebuchet 15.1 (port) on pie9 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-lineageos-15-trebuchet-laucher-rom-t3667436
supports everything & is best solution for pie9..

Try this (only root):
1. Copy rootless pixel bridge apk to system\app
2. On apk properties set permissions owner: read & write, group: read, others: read.
3. Reboot.
4. Enable feed and google at a glance in the launcher configuration.
Feed and google at a glance are back, but you can't access to weather by touching it. It can be solved replacing it for the google widget.
Cheers!

The only fix that I found so far (without rooting) is to use the Lawnchair 2 launcher, you can find the apk on apkmirror (not available on google play store) . It even has the dark google feed which doesn't work on the default launcher.
I hope that this could help you.

[TUTORIAL][STOCK][PIE] AOSP Transformation [v30][All Versions]

So, you've waited for so many days for LG to push the pie update to our beloved devices but the UI/UX they delivered isn't upto your expectations and you want a ROM which has VoLTE/VoWi-Fi functionality with the AOSP goodness?
If your answer is yes, then follow the step by step instructions to modify your LG Stock ROM based on Android Pie look and feel like AOSP Pie!
I HOPE YOU'RE ROOTED!!
Step 1: Open Settings, click on the 3 dot menu on the upper right corner and click on List View.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Step 2: Install Google Dialer Framework Magisk module from Magisk download section. Then clear data of Google Play Store and search for
Phone. Install the result that says Google Inc.
Step 3: Install Messages, Calendar by Google and set all the default apps from Settings->Apps & Notifications->Default Apps
Step 4: Install Quickswitch Magisk module from Magisk download section.
Step 5: Download Lawnchair Launcher attached in this post. (Remember no other launcher will work except the one provided here, reason being
that QuickSwitch doesn't work on our device. So, I repackaged the Lawnchair Launcher with the Package name of LG Home)
Step 6: Delete LG Home from /system/priv-app/LG-Home (Delete the entire folder) and restart
Step 7: Select EasyHome on startup and open your file manager to install the Lawnchair that's uploaded here.
Step 8: Open QuickSwitch and then reboot.
Step 9: Voila, you now have AOSP Goodness!!

Quickswitch is a mod which integrates pie recents or app switcher to launcher eg lawnchair...
This is not supported in oreo as it does not work..
I tried your method... On repeated basis..
Quickswitch app was not available after installation....
Although your laenchair works... Without the quickswitch..
Well i like pie recents... Anyone have any idea how to get that on oreo? I searched alot.. Had no luck
