[Q] Nexus 4 on Kitkat: no new UI or Google Now - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
I just updated my Nexus 4 to Android 4.4, but it seems there has changed as good as nothing. (I was running Nova Launcher when I was updating, if that is relevant).
I don't find any of the new functions of the new android version: normally you can just swipe from the left to acces google now, but not on my Nexus. Everything seems to be just like android 4.3: the appdrawer, the homescreens, ... There are only a few things that have actually changed: the icons, the settings menu and the lockscreen.
I thought the problem could have been that I was running Nova Launcher while installing the update.
Does someone know what I can do to have the full Kitkat experience? I've already deleted Nova Launcher by now and the stock Launcher is set as default.
Could a clean install help me out?
PS: I can post some screenshots later if my explanation here isn't clear.
Thanks in advance!

Are you sure you updated? And are you sure you set Google search as your launcher in the launcher settings?
Sent from my N4, wanna know what I am doing? Check http://team-fun.eu

Search for and install Googlehome.apk

Nexus 4 KitKat update is different from Nexus 5. For example 4 is missing the new Google Experience launcher, transparent lockscreen. For GEL just install Google Home. For full transparent lockscreen flash this fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527525.
Also if you like Nova launcher, join Nova launcher beta group on Google+ and became a tester. Nova beta supports transparent bars (you need enable it in settings).

Which will direct then to all of the threads with the same content, of which they will choose the wrong one to use. This will result in endless..... Never mind. I don't know why I'm even bothering.

I'm not sure why you bothered ether since we are both technically in the right.
Forget search it's lately almost always at the top of general (excluding sticky threads). If you can find how to post a new thread I'm sure you can find a highly active thread in general.

It's just that the constant “use the search” type of replies are about as effective as the war on drugs. You can take a dealer or user off the streets, but that will not do anything to actually impact the level of drug use or distribution. Likewise, there will always be people who don't use the search, so why not just ignore them so the thread dies, or actually offer a helpful response.
I'm more in the right. But that's probably because I'm awesome.

[Q] possible to remove dock bar?

I am considering in buying a nexus 7 and I already own a gnex and loving it.
So is it possible?
You can tell me anything you wish to say about the tablet
Thanks and HV a nice day

Sure, use a different launcher.
If you are looking for general info... READ... there are lots of threads and if you are waiting for your device to show up, what else do you have to do with your time.
Then when it arrives, you will have all that info you already gleamed out of the forums and hit the road running.
OR, you can wait until you get your device and then ask a ton of questions which have already been answered be you now need the info right away.

Some help filling up the Nexus screens?

Hi guys,
First, I'm a developer who spends a lot of time with his nose into terminal windows and editors... so please forgive me if I'm used to the "boring" stuff. I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions what widgets should I use to fill few of the tablet screens. So far, the main apps I use on the tablet are the Terminal (go figure) to manage my Linux boxes and my 3 Google Apps accounts (drive, mail, etc.)
I looked on the internet at those "popular widgets" postings and they all show crappy stuff like Google Play, Beautiful Widgets, Facebook etc. With no disrespect, they are useless to me. I'm looking more into "geek" factor, like some nice tablet memory/kernel stats and other cool widgets I could make use of. I know is hard what I ask but I'm looking for input from tech people who use the tablet to manage mostly Linux related stuff, not just the Google Play library.
It sucks to have all those screens empty, thank you for your help.

You could actually design a fancy-nothing widget by yourself that could show random stuff, like stats, load, cool pictures, links to websites, etc, periodically. Resizable, and repicable. That would be nice.

I don't write Android apps. I did wrote from scratch the XDA search you use it every day and helped the guys to optimize their servers, so you can post your content easier. Thanks for the nice insults.
Yea wth?
Anyway. I suggest Android Pro Widgets. Its free but I recommend buying it for themeing ablilities. They are scrollable Widgets for Facebook, twitter, calendar, favorites, etc. I have a page dedicated to these alone. I like my main homescreen very minimalistic.
Outside of that I use some sort of weather widget. I don't listen to music often and my status bar has toggles. Not sure what else you would need.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Could try minimalistic text and create your own text widgets showing stats of the tablet.
Does anyone got any good music widgets?
Battery Monitor Widget Pro and System Tuner Pro have some decent geeky widgets. Not great though. I'd like to find some more too.

Don't worry about responses like that one. They are a dime a dozen and provide nothing to these forums/communities. Best to ignore nay sayers...
Some suggestions for widgets would definitely be a weather widget, gmail/email widget, play music widget. Just to name a few a lot of it is personal preference from what I see...

I strongly recommend Elixir Widgets 2. Highly customizable, lots of options (more than any other), sips battery and CPU.
Here is my main 'reporting' page.
Also I reduced to 3 home screens... psychological reduction in empty space.

Again only 4 columns home screen

OMG I was shocked to see the Note 3, just like the Note 2, only has a 4x5 grid on the homescreen. What I don't understand is how Samsung can develop a device with a huge screen, and then totally forget that they can make use of the extra room to place more icons. Even the original Note had 5 columns in the home screen by default (I owned the original Note, the Note 2 and now the Note 3).
I wanted to fix this using something like Assassin tools just like I did when I got my Note 2 a few months ago. Then I read about the Knox warranty void 0x1 on the Note 3. I don't want to void my warranty, although I find it completely rediculous that a user can loose warranty cause he wants to install another (modified) operating system to his device. Suppose Microsoft forbid me to install Linux on my PC!
But okay, we have to deal with it and we probably can't fix this problem (making Samsung change it's strategy) easily. So now it's becoming a challange to solve the wish for a more customizable home screen. How can we do that without root? Yes you could use a custom launcher, but I really like the Touchwiz launcher and it's widgets. Does anybody have ideas how to create a customizable grid on the Touchwiz homescreen to place icons and widgets, without the need to get the phone rooted?
Also: why can't we set the dpi per app? Same goes here, we have such nice devices with big screens, I'd love to have control over the per app dpi in Touchwiz! Is that possible without root? Anybody have a solution for that?
Or do I have to issue a ticket to the Samsung development team and clearify my wishes? And if so, will they listen?
I don't understand how you could be shocked by it, You must of already known this before buying the phone? the Samsung launcher had always been the same just like the xperia launcher etc
As for customising it if you don't want to root your phone right now when it is possible, im afraid you will have to wait it out. Try some other launchers at the moment besides I'm pretty sure most of the widgets work on different launchers

Ok I was not shocked in that kind of way (I love the Note series enough to keep buying each increment), but I can imagine that I'm not the only user with such a big screen who wished there was more room to place icons and use apps optimized for big screens. So the shock is that apparentely I am the only one complaining about this, or Samsung doesn't listen....

Fair enough that's just the Samsung launcher though, it's not the "Note3 launcher" I suggest installing nova launcher or apex and replicating the touchwiz look with themes or icon packs for now, just be patient it was only released a few days a go ^^

Samsung just says "if you want more options, install another launcher. We're not stopping you."
That's the point of Android. Don't like it, change it.

Here are a few helpful hints to minimize lag

1. Disable animations
Sure, you might miss some of the fancy animations and stuff, but it really does help out in the end to make lag go away
2. Install nova launcher
This is important! Nova launcher is quite excellent on this device from my experience. Absolutely zero lag, 60fps buttery smoothness! Plus customization
So Nova helps a lot?
100% helps
It may or may not help, but before I make Nova my default launcher, I remove all the widgets from the stock launcher.

Just freeze your default launcher with titanium. That way nova is the only launcher.

Personally I haven't really experienced a need to speed up the device. Some of the apps are kind of slow, but I've ditched s notes and lecture notes seems to be just fine.
Edit:
Actually I have noticed that copying a stuff to your clipboard as being slower than it was on the 2012 model.

From my experience I strongly recommend to not use the default oxygen os launcher.
The default launcher has two big problems with it
1) The launcher is extremely slow, when you tap an app icon there is a big delay before the app actually launches. Compare with any launcher on play store
2) The icons are two big for a 5.5 inch screen.
Please use Nova Launcher or google launcher. I use Action Launcher though

Well, I didn't close, shutdown or explode xda servers by giving my slight advice here did I mate .
Ofcourse the OP didn't ask for feedback, that doesnt mean its wrong to help out a fellow one plus two owner, People around can still help OP with the OS Launcher I am not stopping them. I am just giving my 2 piece of advice, to the OP and other OP2 mates Rajat, making them realize what they are missing of the expensive phone we all bought. Wasn't discussing and helping out each other the whole point of having an openly accessible internet and the foundation of XDA Forums. There is a reason why this is not StackOverflow like, question and answer site.
Now coming to the actual topic in discussion, I have a right to defend myself. I am not forcing anyone to use any specific launcher here, I am just Recommending . If you have actually used the Oxygen OS Launcher, you would know Rajat, that its not very well designed and is inherently flawed. It almost takes 2 seconds to launch a app after clicking on the icon. I don't want the many users of OPT to think that their device is at fault here, the launcher is the culprit and it took me 5 months to realize this, I just don't want other people go through the same.
Sorry I have to quote you here :
"Sorry to say but nobody asked feedback which " forum reply should go to which thread. Or is it so that new member can be bullied on XDA, I am just new here Rajat, I dont know how things run around here,
PS: Sorry OP I apologize on behalf of rajat339 and myself for ruining your thread. But you know we gota stand up for our self .

Yeah I'll be sure to help. I'm not much of a dev but I do know some basics. (Roms, apks, etc). Yeah action 3 is my daily driver as a matter of fact, lol.

@magicstick5 I got the following from the system after I extracted file_contexts from boot.img using AndroidKitchen:
framework.jar; framework-res.apk oxygen-framework-res.apk; libs, Launcher3 and LauncherLayout (Don't know what it is).
How should we approach this? Do we decompile the apk and go from there, because Launcher3 is the name of the Google Launcher app I think. Here are all the items we need (I hope):

If we need anything else I have the system extracted so I can upload and change anything.
