I thought I heard that there was a way to Launch 'My Magazine' using gesture/swipe up in Nova Settings. All I see there is the APP DRAWER. Can you launch specific apps in the launch draw (like 'my magazine') using gesture/swipe up ?
as long as the app is available in the gesture settings it'll launch it. i know smart launcher does and i currently have it set for that. i'll probably change it since i use feedly far more than i'll use the my magazine app.
edit: oh snap! i didn't pay attention that i posted in the note 3 forum. i thought i was in the gn10.1 2014 forum, lol. either way it's all the same.
I found the setting for 'My Magazine' but unfortunately Swipe Up is not doing anything (& swipe up in nova says "my magazine" now). Perhaps NOVA needs a restart. Trying that next.
My gestures work -in my use i find if you make sure you touch a part of the screen not covered by a widget or button then do the motion -the action gets carried out

That was it, thanks sent. I had a widget blocking my swipe, I guess.
Glad it helped! You can even do the gestures along the furthest side of the screen and it'll work so no worries about having to leave a space open to do it!

I was just wondering if any of y'all know how to remove some apps icons from the app menu? For instance better keyboard or some live wallpapers I've installed. I just wanna remove things that you can access from the settings. Thanks for your time.

I'm running LP (not sure if TW has this feature) and if you hit the
setting button > preferences > general settings> Hidden Apps > Choose the apps you want and hide them. I hid a lot it really comes in handy like swype tips.
I don't have launcher pro (which I'm assuming LP is) I'm using the default Touchwiz.

Touchwiz is a slow, uncustomizable, piece of junk. Use lp or adw

Though I'm a fan of anderwebs, I find launcher pro to be a better product. It comes with its own widgets and is very smooth. You can also hide apps in your app drawer.
Not sent from my Vibrant using XDA App 'cause I returned it.
I also use LaucherPro but I will also actually answer your quesiton.
Go into the App List and press
Menu>View Type>Cutomizable grid
Then press
Menu>Edit
You'll see little red minus signs on icons that can be removed. When you've gotten rid of the ones you don't want, just hit Menu>Save and you're all set. Of course, this means that you'll have to move the icons of new apps if you like the alphabetical list.
Is there a way some could extract the lockscreen from QQ Launcher or recommend a lockscreen that is very similar to it? I tried to get some off the market but those never override the system lockscreens. I was hoping for a apk or even a zip for one.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I dont know what that lock screen is but i use menu lock which gives you 8 buttons. You pull the button over to open an app that you have assigned. I also use No Lock which is an app that keeps your phone from using its lock. Together it makes it to where the only lock i see is menu lock.
It is the best app i have of the over 100 i now have and the well over 500 i have tried.
Good luck.

Thanks for replying.... I forgot all about No Lock. I think I know how to get the lockscreen that I want.

Yup NoLock is great I use it to text at school and don't want an unlock screen lol
Sent from my SPH-D700
Well I think I spoke to soon. I can't disable the system's lockscreen. Even with No Lock enabled. I downloaded the QQ Launcher just for the lockscreen so that I could use it with Go Launcher. It works sometimes, but Im still getting my old system lockscreen. Its gotta be a way to disable the system lockscreen.

I've been using Apex Launcher for 3-5 days now on my phone and Nexus 10, and had a question or two about the App Drawer, if anybody has an answer. For one, I was wondering if it was possible to create a shortcut or widget to a specific drawer tab?
Second, I was wondering if it was possible to make it scroll Vertically (continuous) within a tab, then a horizontal swipe switched to the next drawer tab? I have found no ways so far to do either one.

The lack of continuous vertical scroll is the one reason why I won't use Apex on my Tablet. I just switched to Nova.

Do any of the new Note 3 features (pen or not) get impacted from using a different launcher?

The swipe up/home button press my magazine gets removed. Thats it.
You can overcome this, (Im using apex) and you can bind my magazine to a home button press if you miss it.
Using Nova Launcher Prime, all of the spen features work perfect, haven't noticed anything that is broken yet.
Can I disable My Magazine?
I'm coming from the other direction. I like the stock launcher and everything Touchwiz and S-pen related, I just want the swipe-up My Magazine feature to be disabled. Is there a way to do this without rooting or using a different launcher? Thanks in advance,
Nate

I have installed Nova on my LG G6 and looks that everything is ok except one thing: there is no possibility to add stock calendar widget because it's not listed on widgets list. Can anybody confirm that?

Yes, and it also removes the stock weather widget which I happen to like. I also noticed that that since gestures like double tapping the screen to turn it off are a premium feature it breaks that stock LG function and you can't enable it unless you buy the premium version of Nova. I as planning on buying it anyway to support the developer but that's kind of lame.

Even then the double tap feature isn't the same to shut off phone. Does something to permissions and I forget the warning. I just double tap the notification bar which taps off the screen just the same, plus that works from any application, not just the home screen.
