Anyone out there use PA & Unified Remote? Currently on 1.992 and I can't seem to get the Unified Remote remote widget to work. I drop it on the screen, I choose my remote, and then it immediately drops back to the app drawer. Tried using alogrec to see if anything interestng happened, but PA doesn't seem to log much.
Any advice on how to fix?

When I first started the nexus up, the homepage had a dynamic library widget ...ie where all of the media was scroll able (a movie section, magazine, books, and music and I could scroll through all the choices in their own categories). Now, I just see pictures of some media that I've used recently and that's it. It's ticking me off ... I even wiped my nexus and started from scratch but that dynamic my library widget return; I'm left with the static/picture only one. Is there a fix for this?
My library didn't work when I used a different home launcher like apex or nova...

I figured apex had something to do with it ... so I just wiped my nexus and started from scratch but the widget still isn't working the way it was when I first got it. I really liked that scrolling widget.
Anyone?

kodiak, how did u deodex it?
You don't need to deodex. Grab the 4.2.1-TabletUI.zip from the following link (Post 912) and apply in recovery. Laucher is messed up but Nova Launcher free works great.

you could also install paranoid android, where you can choose which layout (phone, phablet, tablet...) you wish to use, you can even set layouts for individual apps or app groups (e.g. Launcher + google mail in tablet mode, other apps stay phablet)

I am currently running paranoid androids latet rom, and the main thing I'm struggling with is that the 3 buttons (back, home, and the 3rd button that brings up recent apps) are centered, when I want them on the let side. Does the patch fix that?
Also, is there a way to remove the lock screen tiles? I think I saw other threads saying that this change was related to the lawsuit but didn't find anything that allows you to take those off. At the very least I'd want to change the font if I have to keep it.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Yes the tablet patch takes the 2 seperate nav bar and task bar and puts them to the bottom like they should be imho.
I dont even run the lock screen so I cant answer that question.

In Paranoid settings, change the UI to Tablet UI (mid) and you'll have the navigation bar buttons to the left hand side like you want.
Also, the way to get rid of the lockscreen tiles is to install Lockscreen Policy.

I set up the Quick Remote with a custom controller that combined my TV, 360, and Roku remotes into one. However, if I select Quick Remote from the pulldown quick menu, it doesn't show my remote.
Also, somehow, Quick Remote was added to my lock screen and made default. It also doesn't show my custom remote and I can't figure out how to get it off my lock screen.
Is there any way to get the quick menu version of the app and/or the lockscreen app to show your custom remote?
How do I remove it from my lock screen?
Thanks.
Edit: I found out how to remove it from my lock screen. There's an option in Quick Remote (the main app) to "Auto Display at Home". This will automatically add the quick remote widget to the lock screen when you are connected to your home wifi.
I'm having this same issue. Help would be appreciated.

So I'm trying to open a widget from a widget, here's what I'm working with. For the Harmony icons, I want to be able to tap them and have them open up another window that shows all the activities that are on that hub, with a different icon for the current activity. I can't seem to find a way to open another widget from tapping on one of them, is it possible? I've also played with trying to set up a Tasker Scene, but it doesn't seem like I can change icons in there. Thoughts?

Hi All,
I have a couple of Nexus Players and all work just great. My friend just bought one, and all is good except one issue - long pressing the Select button on Home screen does not activate the Rearrange mode, to move icons around.
Seems like the remote is OK, because when we used it in Kodi, it recognized long press and popped-up the context menu. But I could be mistaken here.
Updated to latest, non-rooted.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Does he have the current version of the Leanback Launcher (1.1.5.2775444) installed? The details can be be checked from Settings >> Apps >> System apps >> Leanback Launcher. If not, have him check Google Play >> My Apps for updates.
Thanks, although everything was updated will check anyway.
As far as I know, you can't rearrange anything unless you are rooted and running a custom rom, but I am not 100% on this. I remember I was trying to do the same thing awhile back when I got my Nexus player, but even with custom rom the rearrangement options are limited. I ended up using a different launcher Top TV Launcher to have more control and not the excess bloat from the Leanback launcher.
Rearranging is for sure possible, and it's a well-documented feature (long-press/move icons/hit save&exit/done). I have it working fine on two of my players, NOT having it is a problem, which I am trying to solve.
And, after a long-while, an answer - it works indeed, IF the Android TV Launcher is updated to the latest version! Somehow on this player it was not updated, and it was not showing up in the list of My Apps, I found it by accident, searching for "Launcher" in the Google Play store!
