I haven't seen anyone really mention this if someone had I apologize. In flashing and modding my Note 3i have discovered that KitKat 4.4 is a popular topic. We now have some of the apps to flash to our devices and now we have the actual stock Android launcher from KitKat 4.4!!!!!! The Google Experience Launcher is amazing by far the best stock launcher ever and one of the smoothest I have ever used also. I have been using it for a day and after set up I am currently using it as my daily. The only thing I really don't like is that you are unable to change the icons on the home screen and there are no native gestures implemented but no big deal. Now they have implemented some major changes the app drawer now contains only your apps, widgets have their own section, you can arrange and add more home screens. Google Now is actually completely incorporated into the launcher itself and the search bar is constantly listening for you to say Ok Google to start a search using voice commands through Google Now. There are 3 apk's you will have to install to make this work they are totally dependant upon each other so if one is missing it will not open or work. I will post a link for you so you can download and give it a try for yourself I hope you guys enjoy and remember I did not create this or have anything to do with it I am just sharing it. If you brick your device it's not my fault ...

The only problem I noticed is that the icons in the app drawer are huge, which makes them look blurry

I wish that app settings in xposed framework would work on this. I tried it and it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

Just a heads up that you'll need to go into Google Now's language settings and change them to English UK and then back to English US for the search function to not start crashing. I actually just left mine on English UK and haven't run into any issues.

I changed the screen density to 300 in the build prop and I like the way it looks, but when I press the home button it goes to the home screen and the keyboard pops up. Does anyone know why?
Edit... If I use samsung's keyboard this doesn't happen. So I'm now happy.
Edit 2....its popping up again.

Just a quick question, how do we change back to stock of we don't like it... Do we just uninstall the apk's and reboot? Thanks in advanced...

I have installed all three apps but I Dont have the always listening feature working. Is there a certain order that they have to be installed in? Any other special dependencies that need to be met? I've done the process of searching and changing laguages but not always listening working. The search works but I have to hit the button and it doesn't say "Say OK Google" to search. Any ideas?
If everything is installed and you have the launcher working just say Google or Ok Google while on the homescreen there is no special order to install the apps

Thanks for the help but the keyboard still pops up. I changed the screen density on my nexus 4 running also KitKat and it does the same thing.

It goes automatically to Google Launcher with no Touchwiz option. A little tinkering reveals you have to clear the defaults for Google Search.
Hey guys, i once greenified the clock app and de greeified it, and since then my alarm clock only seems to work sometimes. I alpmost missed my train to work several times.

Ok, so why exactly can't I get a Gmail Counter to show on my stock Note 3 screen? Is it that hard to do?
Thanks
Only thing I can recommend would be to download Nova and purchase nova prime and you would be able to do it then
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the response and I've already done that, but my question is really for Google developers of Android. Why can't they make a counter system part of the Android OS or at least the stock launcher.
We shouldn't need to get alternative launchers just to have a email counter. Just my opinion of course.
