Hubs on ICS with Nova or Stock launcher

Hey Guys,
Has anyone managed to get the Hub look, ie. Multiple Live Wallpaper, etc. Working with Nova or the Stock launcher? If so, what settings did you use? I'm trying but can't get it working.

For me multi live wallpaper is working fine with stock launcher.....
Add 5 different wallpaper from the screen settings and in the advanced settings use "force 5 screens"....

Got it working, thanks for that.
All I need now is to be able to do what ADW lets you do and that's be able to link to other screens with a widget and then I'm set!

Let me know if you figure out a nice way to do this

Where do you find that option for advanced screen settings? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Not adding from home screen or changing from display settings menu.

you need to install "Multi Live Wallpaper" from market. This app has advanced screen settings.

Changing icons in Paranoid Android

Hi All, recently installed paranoid android, anyone got any idea how i create shortcuts with my own icons? the default launcher doesnt seem to have anywhere i can change it. and i dont wanna install another launcher ideally.

couldn't one simply long press a app's icon on the home screen and then tap EDIT? then you can search for the icon you want to replace it with. I believe that's how I did it.

You would need a custom launcher like Nova Launcher to edit your icons

You installed a completely new, and alpha, ROM. Why do you hesitate to install a new launcher?
The latest Nova launcher will even import your icon and screen layouts from the stock launcher.

Sure would like to do this with out adding a launcher as well. Not sure Nova or any other launcher can duplicate all the different looks to your homepage that Paranoid Android is mostly flashed for.
Edit: flashing a launcher will do the trick disregard the above BS.

[Q] Strange behavior with Nova Launcher

Hi there,
Just bought my beautiful Nexus 10 and rooted it only (running stock ROM JB 4.2.2).
To replace original launcher I installed Nova Launcher (free edition) and it works great!
But I noticed a strange behavior, sometimes (randomly) when turning off the screen, and then unlocking the tablet, I get back on the stock Android launcher.
I have to launch Nova.
I checked in Nova settings and it is defined as the default launcher.
I'm thinking about installing a new ROM but if anyone has an idea.
Thanks

Trebuchet has the option to turn on dock apps title. No apps or launcher can do that

Widget resizing in 4.4.2?

Just upgraded to 4.4.2 and now a couple of my widgets have changed size. Specifically Google play music and Google sound search. They used to be 4x1, but are now stick at 3x1 and cannot be changed. Is this a new launcher thing? Thx!
