Need to get a server side update before it will work. Slowly rolling out...

All feature drop updates aren't rolling out on the go, even though you have the June feature drop update installed. It will come with an app update.

For ANYONE experiencing this issue, go to the app info for "Wallpaper & Styles app, & Google / pixel wallpaper images" app. .
Click the 3 button menu at top right of app info, click "uninstall updates", and it will instantly appear"
Many ppl sideload the beta wallpaper & styles app, n ESPECIALLY Google/Pixel wallpaper images, (I updated my 6a with the Pixel wallpaper images app from 7 and 7a to replace my Nature swept walls with the newer feathers walls,) before the June update, and after the reboot, I was missing emoji/cinematic wallpapers as well.
Soon as I uninstalled updates back 2 the factory version, everything appeared as it should

Hi. How to find this app info? I can't

I see Pixel Live Wallpaper there, I assume that is what the OP is talking about?

Sorry this doesn't work for me.
Had to 'show system apps' for it to appear and the only option I get is disable or force stop.
This is on a stock Pixel 7.
Maybe as you sideloaded the app it give you the option to uninstall.
Have to wait for it to update.
The Emoji wallpaper does work, and with the cinematic bit, just not user wallpapers

Look under show system once your in the app info section, and find Google Wallpaper Images.. uninstall updates... That's what worked for me.
The app itself is located in product/ app

I found it but it is impossible to uninstall updates. I haven't this option.

The option pops up when you tip on the three dots on the top right corner of the "App Info"->"Google Wallpaper Screen" (german name: "Emoji-Workshop: Hintergrund").
I sideloaded the App update as well and it did not work but after uninstalling the updates as described it updated itself in < 24h after a reboot.
You do not need to be logged in into the play store but the play store app has to be activated.

Pixelfying 3T

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
This is my finished setup pixel my way haha.
This is my Z3+ pick up my 3T later today :victory:

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

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?

Nova has it as a widget and you can chose whether you want date or weather

[KWGT] Pixel Search and Weather Widget

For those who prefer custom Launchers.
I prefer to use Nova instead of Pixel Launcher but persistent Nova search bar is too small on my opinion and doesn't update weather correctly. So I made my own Pixel styled search widget for KWGT.
Widget is fully customizable so you can set it up as you want including all its layers, colour etc.
KWGT Kustom Widget Pro Key is required to load preset!
Download preset from Google Drive
Also if you have Tasker you can launch Google Now Weather using this task:
Code:
Action android.intent.action.VIEW
Cat Default
Data dynact://velour/weather/ProxyActivity
Package com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
Class com.google.android.apps.gsa.velour.DynamicActivityTrampoline

You need to install KWGT and move Google_Pixel_Search_Widget.kwgt into Kustom/widgets folder. Then choose KWGT4x1 widget from your widgets gallery and place it to the screen > "click to setup..." (it opens KWGT app) > Exported tab > Google Pixel Search Widget. That's all.

Ofc you're right. I missed that point - will add requirements.
UPD
Several cosmetic improvements.
How do I get mine to display like yours? Mine doesn't sit right at the side of the screen, and doesn't extend as far to the right.

Try to resize it right after placing into home screen. And also set Layer > Scale to 70.
Was an issue with sizing settings from within the KWGT app settings. Changed to auto resizing and it all looks perfect now.

By default it is set to launch Google News & Weather. So you should install this app or set TOUCH to launch another app, shortcut etc..

And why did you post it here? It has nothing to do with KWGT and btw is not available in some countries.
I love the widget but other weather on widget and other on the app

You can always choose another weather source or try different apps, shortcuts etc. for launching.
I'm using weather.com as a source and google now weather.
Can you please post a link to the wallpaper and icon packs that you used?
This is great!
Do you have any idea how to get it to open a Google search overlay like the Nova widget can?
I googled around and it said to use activity - Google - gsa.queryentry.queryentryactivity which comes close. It opens the overlay but also the app. I would love to faithfully reproduce the native widget so I can use a better weather source. Thanks!
Icon pack name?

Touchwiz tips and tricks?

This thread is for anyone who have questions on touchwiz and hopefully we can offer answers.
I know we can swipe up or down to get in the app drawer. But is there a way to customize that swipe feature? Can I swipe down to access my status bar and notifications?

You just need to update your Touchwiz Launcher and long press on the homescreen -> settings -> swipe to open notification panel. I'll attach what I think is one of, if not the, latest versions available. Just download it and install it, or go google it yourself if you prefer to.

I don't really know why it's not available. I remember reading somewhere about this feature and I just searched for the apk in apkmirror last week.
Also, somebody uploaded an apk here in xda which enables black navbar color option in navbar settings. (Sorry, I can't remember in which thread it was/who uploaded it) I'll attach it here in case you or anybody else wants a black navigation bar.
DON'T INSTALL APK's FROM UNTRUSTED SOURCES!
Trusted APK's can be found on APKMirror!

Lockscreen wallpaper keeps reverting to stock

I seem to have an issue with my lockscreen wallpaper on my Huawei P20 Pro. No matter what I do it keeps reverting to stock within a few hours... And yes I have looked in themes and display settings and random wallpaper change is switched off.

I have noticed the same issue... I have turn off all stock lockscreen wallpapers and put my wallpapers (about 50) and after soome time it start play stock wallpapers again.
I remember in Mate 10 (or Mate 9} I could delete all stock wallpapers and only keep mine but I can't find a way to do it

I have try to delete stock wallpapers and seems to work for now but I need more time to check... You can check your own. First of all check that you have not select any stock Huawei wallpaper
Then go to lockscreen and see the first wallpaper.. scroll your finger from bottom, up to see shortcuts and scrolling photos press the "circle with the X button to delete it... Continue this until you delete all unwanted stock wallpapers. I hope that this will do the job.
1. Deselect all covers in the lockscreen settings
2. Select your picture in a gallery app, set as wallpaper, choose lockscreen only. Done

i did this , and it doesnt. omg.
delete all photos from the magazine unlock folder in the huawei folder - then check you have updates turned off for the magainze, etc - you can also pause the screens by swiping up when locked to get the mini bar for torch, calculator, etc - just press the pause button
mine has never updated since i done all this and can change lockscreeen or desktop picture when ever i want
I have the same problem except I can never display my images as covers in the locks reen. All other covers are unchecked and can't be deleted. I have read somewhere that you should deactivate and reactivate locks reen pw but it doesn't help for me.
I am not having this problem. Strange behaviour for some phones it seems.

well... yesterday somehow it started to work, after testing other themes, I reverted to the magazine lock screen and it worked... until this morning when stock started to show again... the only thing I did was to add the face recognition...
so there is smth not working correctly here... any one knows if there is a place where to report bugs at Huawei ? or is it useless to try ?

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"
