using a different launcher while on sense based rom

i noticed when i first installed nova launcher that i would not get the unread count on the icons on the lockscreen say when i got a text or something. but now for some reason i do get the notification badge (but it doesnt always stay updated, says 1 even though i already opened the message)
so basically my question is, is sense kinda still running in the background when im using nova launcher? is it technically not supposed to show the notification badge when im not using the sense launcher like when im using nova launcher instead.
can anyone with nova launcher confirm with me if they still get the notification badges on the lockscreen if you are using a sense rom?
thanks

Wallpaper Carousal Not Working in MiUi8

Hello,
The wallpaper carousal in my unrooted Mi5 doesn't seem to work. The lock screen shows only the default, offline 8 wallpapers.
I also tried clearing the cache and data of the carousal app (also tried a restart after that). Any clue about how to fix this?

Which launcher do you use?

It's the default launcher provided by MiUi.
Btw, it's a bit stupid that I am answering my own question, but the issue was resolved when I got an OTA two days ago The version I have now is 8.0.5.0

Good to know it works now
I was asking about the launcher because when you have custom launcher set as default, Wallpaper Carousel cannot access wallpapers and symptoms are just how you described. Xiaomi says that this is "known error"

Below feedback i wrote to Xiaomi
Changing wallpaper on Lockscreen is unique feature of Xiaomi but it's not working. I google lot on solution, still it is not working. Many users reported that the wallpaper is not changing on lockscreen. I tried both on default launcher and lightning launcher still not working. Did many troubleshooting like installed old versions, Autostart, no restrictions in battery saving, allowing all permissions etc still not working. My device is Redmi Note 4 rooted with Android 7.0 with MiUi 9.6.3.0.

Duplicate notifications on lockscreen?!

I've been using the K20 pro since October and been wondering why does it display duplicate notifications on the lockscreen.
The notifications duplicated are only for third party apps like Whatsapp, Outlook etc. I've tried to enable disable lockscreen notifications both on MIUI 10 and 11 but this remains the same. Anyone else facing the same problem? And how to fix it, if anyone knows the fix for it?

I am experiencing the same identical problem on my Mi note 10

It's the theme , change it, there are some themes with bug of duplicate notificationd

Have already tried changing the theme too. It's the same on stock theme as well. ?

I'm experiencing the same with mi Redmi Note 8 Pro (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/redmi-note-8-pro-repeated-lockscreen-t4123141), it works well with stock theme lockscreen, but I receive repeated notifications with ANY custom theme (even with official themes).
It's hard for me to believe EVERY theme is buggy, there's sth else. I can't figure out what though.

Question Gesture and custom launcher

Hello, I have a problem with the navigation gestures and the custom launcher, Nova launcher in this case, but all the tested launchers had this problem. When I return to the home page and I tap on an application quickly after, the screen flashes and the application does not launch. But while waiting half a second after having returned to the home page, I do not have this problem.
The navigation bar doesn't trigger the problem and the One Ui launcher works fine.
Does anyone have this problem?
Watch my video to see the problem more precisely.
Eyah

Yeah. Nova devs said it's a Google limitation that they put on 3rd party launchers. So we have to wait til Google let's 3rd party launchers have some sort of access to something.
If you noticed, the lower corner have the white marking to activate google assistant that pops up.

This problem is also on Android 10 on most devices... Its a shame google doesnt dort this out...

You can have third party gestures 100 percent working on any Samsung phone if you install Hexed from the Play Store, create a custom theme and in the theme preferences check Navbar height and set it to 0DP. After you build the theme the navbar will be gone and you can use something like Vivid Navigation gestures for your navigation. You can even hide the battery icon and keep the percentage. I highly recommend the app.

I thought it was fixed with Android 11
I could be satisfied with the One Ui launcher but we can't at all install icon packs that come from the play store... Damn I begin to regret my OnePlus 7 Pro

I've thought the same... Its strange... Yes in terms of launcher oneplus is nice but thery Update policy ****ed me up... Had the 7t pro mclaren that im using as second phone and they said Android 11 on December 2020, now its february and nothing... Also security patch is November 2020. Samsung is way better innterms of update/camera/battery abd build quality...

Android 12 beta 5 "live space" doesn't show temperature

Hi! I update my pixel 5 to beta 5 but the Pixel Launcher doesn't show temperature. I see that other devices can show It probably flag something. Can anyone help me to fix?

It's gone for now. Hopefully it will come back in the release version.

I have noticed that my P5 has been much more sensitive to temperature on the beta 5. It never overheated on A11, so I'm hoping this won't be a thing with A12.

i've enabled the new weather widget as shown in:
Here's a look at the Assistant weather widget in the Google App
Ahead of the Android 12 public release, we have spotted evidence of a brand new Assistant weather widget. Here's what it looks like.
www.xda-developers.com
but it still wont solve the live space weather issue
if you are rooted you can enable this receiver in google app = "com.google.android.apps.search.assistant.verticals.snapshot.widgets.weather.WeatherWidget_Receiver"
edit: after google update, now widget support material ui colors..
edit 2: added the new pill widget, receiver:
"com.google.android.apps.search.assistant.verticals.snapshot.widgets.weather.FreeFormWeatherWidget_Receiver"
