Pie Update / Google Assistant

I'm using Nova launcher.
Is it possible to use Google Assistant without 'swipe up from home' activation?
Swipe up opens app drawer too. It's really annoying.
I've messed around with various settings to no avail.
Even swiping up from home with GA disabled prompts to enable it again. I mean, wtf?
Thanks

Reactivate Google Search on Swipe-Up in MIUI Launcher

Since the last Update of MIUI (now on 11.0.6) or any of these System-Apps my Swipe-Up gesture of the MIUI-Launcher hast changed. Before the Update on swipe up, the google search opens, now when i use this gesture the miui browser appears. This don't want the browser, i want google search back. In Settings Chrome is my default browser. Tried several things: cleared all data of Mi-Browser - no changes ; disabled mi-browser with adb - only an error message appears on swipe up.
Does anyone knows who i can get back the google search using the swipe-up gesture ?

Question Weird launcher issue

I don't know what happened, I was going to pair my smart watch (non-samsung) to my S21 Ultra but it wouldn't, so I rebooted the phone, and it rebooted with the One UI launcher instead of Nova Launcher, so I switched back to Nova, checked the default setting in Nova settings and it was still set to Nova as the default, when trying to leave the Nova settings, it again returned to One UI home, so I checked in settings for default apps, and Nova is still set to the default. So I tried force stopping One UI home, and return home, and again, it opens One UI home, it will not open Nova anymore.
I tried rebooting again, and oddly enough, Nova was the default launcher again. Figured it was just a glitch so I went on with my day and it just happened again but I haven't touched anything, it was on my desk all day untouched and when I picked it up, One UI launcher again.
Now, no matter how many times I reboot, it will always pick the One UI launcher, but the weird thing is when I'm in Nova, I can't swipe to go home because it's already on the default launcher, but when in an app, I swipe to go home and it goes to One UI home, and swiping to go home does nothing within that launcher as well.
So some how, not sure what happened, but the phone is using both launchers at the default now and there's no way to stop One UI from opening.
I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, or if there's a fix for it, but would removing One UI with ADB (if possible) cause issues? Like if I force remove this with ADB will the phone even boot to a different default launcher if One UI home isn't there anymore?
I would do more testing but this is my daily driver so I don't wanna mess with it too much, but this is really annoying that it keeps defaulting to One UI home.
I was having the same issue at first. What I did to fix it was set OneUI as default, exit the menu. Go back into that menu and then change back to Nova Launcher. Reboot. It took a couple of tries repeating the same process, but it eventually sticks. I haven't had any issues since.
Also, side note. The Samsung widgets that aren't transparent, first set them up in OneUI with the settings you want them at. Then when you go back Nova Launcher, remove the the original and readd them. There is only 1 widget that I can't get to go transparent, Reminders.

Question How to remove/hide Google Feed screen

Does anyone know how to remove/hide this additional google feed screen on the very left? I have already disabled google Discovery function in the settings so the screen now is empty with search bar. Is it possible to remove this somehow?
Not on default launcher. Stick on nova pro or another, sure.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
With Nova I noticed that the feed sometimes disappears for whatever reason.
Just by disabling Google app.
I don't have the global version so what I had was breeno feed and the way to deactivate it was by going into Settings > Breeno > Breeno Feed (off).

Swipe left for Google feed

Anyone know how to enable the Google feed when you swipe left on the home screen? Oppo seems to have removed it on the latest update.
Try changing your settings from the Google App. Menu > Settings > Your feed
Thanks but I don't see that option.
Do you mean to the left from the home screen? I'm seeing Google Discovery there. You can look for the setting "Discovery" and turn it on.
Or it is that the whole page to the left is gone?
Personally I want it removed, but I don't know how.. Anyone knows?
Hi,
I've disabled it. It's easy : you have to disable the "google" app.
Google assistant will not work anymore, but you won't have that fuXXing discover page on the left
