Anyone got the new Google now launcher with latest Google search update? - Nexus 7 (2013) General

I heard that the Google now launcher was available with the last Google search update but I haven't got it, am I the only one?

You need the current version of search and the now renamed Google Now Launcher

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

OK so it's not something that they push to other devices other than the nexus 5?

Installed this so big thanks to gnotelover, but one question.. How can I add more homescreens?

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

[Q] Screen Flickering & DPI mod

Had my Nexus 7 for 24 hours know & its amazing but the I've only just noticed that sometimes my screen flickers & I have to lock & unlocked my nexus 7 to stop it, is this due to the DPI mod I'm using to give me a TabletUI or is this a fault?
Thanks in advance
Seems like its a problem regarding tegra 3 devices. It should be fixed in a rom update eventually.

Take the brightness control out of Auto and see if it helps

Mine seems to flicker only when using Tapatalk. I haven't seen it do this on the home screen, browser or when playing games at all but every time I use tapatalk I see it at least once.
*edit* I also remember seeing it flicker when using the Facebook app.

Go into developer options or apps in settings and make sure to check "install unknown apps"

Erm
You can just check install apps from unknown sources in the security part of your settings. On a side note, please watch this video...

After searching it looks like nobody has successfully installed the stock ICS browser on the n7 without having to root the device.
I'll just start getting used to chrome then

To the top?

Maybe a dumb question but is there a way to jump to the top of chrome or any other app...sort of way iPad n iPhone does when click near clock?

There isn't a setting anywhere that I've found that enables the fast scroll go the top of the page iPhone style. There may be a third party app or a script to run that enables that functionality. If anyone knows of such a modification, please chime in.

I was just thinking this today. To my knowledge there isn't anything. I'm going to look on market.

No, however, some apps build in functionality for jump to top.
Just from Google responses, it looks like the Dolphin HD browser has this built in

[REQUEST] FB Messenger floating head style notifications for SMS

Specifically something that emulates the ability to 'open' a head and reply without entering the app.
I've had Floating Notifications for a little bit on my phone and it's just not what I'm looking for. I also used to use SMS Popup years ago which was quite good but I'd rather something less obtrusive that lets me chose when to see the popup rather than it just appearing and interrupting whatever I'm doing.
Is there anything out there like this? I'm sure I head of something when they first added it to FB Messenger but I can't seem to find anything.
EDIT: I've just installed SMS Extension but I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for.
