So I have managed to install SR4 and get Xposed/Gravity Box going. I have installed the AndroidN-ify Module and get Google Assistant going and have installed Pixel Launcher. Only problem is that the long press on icons does not pop up the menus. Now is this something that is only part of N or is it part of the Launcher? Also Google Now Cards do not pop up when I swipe home screen.
Thanks for any help.

I believe it's system integration, nova however have it included as you can see in my screenshot. Did you download the apk or flash it? I found flashing the launcher gave me the swipe to Google.
Forgot

I installed all. 7.1.1
Hmm maybe try and flash it. Dilemma is I like both the swipe and the long press. So it would seem that I have a choice to make. Oh and how do you enable the long press function in Nova?
I am having trouble getting Google Assistant unlock the screen but if screen is on it works fine.
It's the nova beta

Just like official n not all apps support it yet. XDA labs recently updated to support it. Even the usual Google apps still haven't implemented it

Yes I have Nova Beta, Nova Prime as well and XDA Labs. But when I press on icons do not get mini menus.

How did you guys get the new google pixel persistent search bar uptop on nova launcher? I thought that was a pixel launcher exclusive? Also, if you have the widget, can you change it to display weather rather than just the date like on the pixel?

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?

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.

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)

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.

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.

Most customizable. No contest
Total launcher.

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,

Hi guys!
I have installed the new android 10 FW on my s10.
I tried to use an alternative launcher (Microsoft Launcher) but the new Animations and gesture automatically change to the old.
There Is a way to have the new gesture with alternative Launcher?
We need to wait until Samsung update the new gestures to other launchers like google did it for the pixel.
So do you think Samsung will update this?
Days/weeks/months?

Probably not further than a month.
You could try following the tutorial here:

It seems to work for me, but has to be redone after a reboot...

Had to give up on Nova, too glitchy, much better using stock launcher
Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk
yeah, its better to stay on stock launcher if you want to use gestures. i think the next update from Samsung will fix this for 3rd party launchers
Today I got new update on my s10+ snap and still no works. I'm hungry for that.
Probably we should ask Samsung directly for that. I spammed Samsung twitter channel for this kaka. Your turn?
We need numbers to get attention

Hello!
I just recently got my OnePlus 10 (exchanged for S22U) and couldn't find any answer to it:
If I choose number or dot for notifications, it will only appear a dot and if I choose only number, no notification will appear on the app icon at all.
Nova Launcher is unusable, and I don't want only dot on the icon. For my workflow, I need to see the number on the icon.
Can you help me please?
Well thank you
Why is Nova Launcher unusable?
on android 12 is there a glitch when opening a home right?
I don't know what you talk about, sorry.
Since android 12 there is a problem with Nova launcher. Do you use another launcher?

Nova ftw
When I switch between home and recents, especially when closing an app or moving from one app to the homescreen, you get a little pop up of the most recent recent app flash up, it's not the end of the world but it's annoying.
I'm using lawn chair but noticed the same with pixel rootless, not sure what other launchers exhibit this issue, maybe it's just oos11 being a bit crap
