The stock ADW app drawer looks like a big square with 4 squares inside it.
A long time ago I discovered one that looked like three ovals. Can anyone locate this or provide it? I've looked everywhere. I thought it came packaged in ADW but I guess not.
Thanks!
hi all
anyone know how to get chat heads to work right with the stock tw launcher? usually with other launchers the chat head stays until you get rid of it and it floats above other apps as well. but for some reason the chat head will be open above other apps, but when i return to the home screen the bubble always disappears, which doesn't happen with other launchers. any workaround? its slightly annoying that it doesnt work the way im used to.
thanks
Hi there, I wasn't able to find an answer to this and didn't want to hijack the "GEL coming to all 4.1+ devices?" thread under General..
When I first upgraded my Nexus 7 (2012, WiFi) tablet to KitKat and installed the GEL/latest Google Search - I had the transparent navigation bar AND status bar. However today I noticed the navigation bar at the bottom is no longer transparent, while the status bar at the top still is.
The only thing I can think of that I've changed is I've rooted my tablet with the latest SuperSU. Anyone have some ideas? Once I get home tonight I'll try unrooting it and see if that fixes it, but that seems rather odd it would break that.
Curious if anyone else has noticed this or knows of a fix? Thank you.
Install the GEL launcher again (just the launcher) and you will get it, it'll only be transparent on the homescreen though.
And unless you use Google Now a lot and perform A LOT of google searches, GEL is completely useless if you ask me.

I will try that out when I get home tonight - makes sense.
Agreed on the Launcher on all accounts - but I actually do use Now quite a bit, and love the voice capabilities. And the transparency is oh so purty :victory: Definitely not for everyone, I can see why Google hasn't pushed it out yet. My only beef is the missing Play store button at the top right corner of the app list
There is the launcher extracted from Nexus 5

Don't get me wrong.... I love Google search, but how do I get rid of the search bar from every screen? I can't drag it away. Is there a menu setting somewhere I'm missing?
Get a new Launcher i.e. Nova, very stock like but no Google Search bar, only bad part is that there's no "Now" Page to the left. GNL editor isnt update for Marshmallow yet I dont think since we dont have xposed on M.

Ah yes..... Dummy me didn't think that Google now launcher would of course be the stock launcher for a Nexus. Face palm. Might have to try out Nova. I haven't used a different launcher since my Droid Incredible days.
I'm on the new Joying 2GB RAM, Intel unit, 8 inch double din. Sometimes I find the Joying default launcher boring. I wish I could get the KLD Launcher to work on it, but I'm not sure how. So I tried a few from the Play Store.
I used Nova, but it keeps the Dock on the right hand side, instead of putting it at the bottom. Even if you try to force Landscape it keeps it on the right hand side.
I tried a bunch, but I think I found my favorite:

with nova launcher, you can't use landscape dock , but you can disable it, and display on the desk the apps you want , like this .
you can choose icon, size, label or not, etc ...
this is what i did in my car .

How did you get the app drawer icon on the bottom like that?
put your finger on the app drawer's icon (which appears often on the dock (right side) )you keep your finger on it, and slide it to the bottom of the desk .

I figured it out. Leave the dock on, just get rid of the platform, then you can pull it out. If you turn the Dock off entirely the App icon disappeared
Now I need a good clock and weather widget, basically just trying to recreate the KLD launcher

You can create a 'shortcut' or widget to any of the Nova actions (Including open app drawer) on the homescreen.
You can disable the dock, and create an app drawer icon to go anywhere.
Personally, I don't use the app drawer icon. I change Nova's button behavior so that when I press home it opens the app drawer. Look in the settings in Nova. TONS of ways to customize this to your use.
I cant seem to get Widgets to work on any of these launchers. Let me correct that, I can't get a large widget to work, like the clock or whatever. If I put a shortcut, like a playlist in Google Play Music, it works fine. If I try to put on something simple like the Clock widget, it just says no more room on the screen
I have a problem when using nova launcher.
Everytime I set it up and arrange everything the way I like it. After I restart my unit I end up with blank screen tiles (no apps, app drawer, nothing). Which almost had me stuck there since there is no way to access the settings to uninstall nova launcher. But I figured out how to open the GPS with the hardware buttons. That lets me get to the downloaded apps, after I uninstall nova launcher the problem is gone.
Not sure why this happens. But I would like to change the launcher because the stock launcher is kind of boring.
Has anyone tried this Car Launcher Pro? It is made for these units, and has trial version too. I think I'm going with that when I receive my new unit.
Sorry, can't post link here yet.
Looks cool!

I never got it from the Play Store, at one point it was built into Malaysk ROM, but I didn't like the layout
