air command
Sorry for the noob question, I'm waiting to get my note 3. The air command from the stylus is not launcher related right? If i change launcher they are still there?
Thanks!

No it's not related to Launcher. Will work with Nova as well as any other Launcher.

You aren't using stock launcher. Transparency only works with stock launcher.

THANK YOU!

[Q] Swipe left gooogle now on any phone?

Got a question.
On the Nexus five you can swipe to the left to get google now to come up. Is there anyway that can be added to an s4?

I'll have to try that all I want to do is even swipe up and google now appears. I use Google now allot and its a pain to have to open the app would be good to just do a gesture and it opens.

I use Nova launcher and have set double tap on screen to be google now. Very handy.

This thread has the launcher you're looking and some other 4.4 goodies.

It's not nova that does the transparency it is the G2 xposed mods. It does a ton of customizations. Check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528304 it works with a lot of launchers not just nova. (I have only tried the Google experience one and nova)

I was just going to post how did you get your notification bar too look like that. I realized that the lg one should still be intact even if you change the launcher. Good Job hopefully we can get some of that soon.

Same answer as above http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48129802&postcount=11 it is apart of the G2 Xposed mod. That thing is awesome! You can also add different items to the navigation bar. I added recent apps

I have never rooted a device before I don't trust myself to do it correctly

You will have to download the launcher yourself. Here's the link- http://www.mediafire.com/?3ina0fd8fwki5fo

Installed this so big thanks to gnotelover, but one question.. How can I add more homescreens?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Select an app or widget, and then move it to the right of the home screen and keep going. A new screen will appear.

You need to move the icon to the edge of the screen to the right, hold it there for a little. It should automatically take you to a new screen.

Thanks guys, human error... I was trying to do it with a widget, but it works with an app, not a widget..

Is this Google Now Launcher the same as the 0.10.1.920880?
Or what is the version number for this new one?

Maybe it's just me, but I tried the launcher and find it pretty lame.

Thanks Jhall8. Do you also happen to know how to stretch wallpapers too? I can't get any wallpaper to fill up the screen even very large high def images.

You're welcome. Try this app for wallpaper sizing.

Thanks again. I've tried that already but didn't bode well with my favorite walls. Tried clearing data in Google search got rid of the black bar on the right of the wallpaper but stretched way too much. Oh well.

Can anyone confirm whether the latest version of Google Search and/or the latest Google Now launcher goes back to the 6 x6 grid that Google search version 3.1.8920880.arm had? Every time I tried updating to new Search version it cuts off one of the columns which throws my whole homescreen setup and wigets off. I think the updates cut it to only 5 columns
