The new app shortcuts are only supported in 7.1

Thought so ,wonder why it comes as an update then if it's not going to work

Probably because Google is preparing it for the 7.1 DP later this month, and the scheduled update sometime in November.

The shortcuts are only for Android 7.1, and I believe only in Pixel launcher but not certain on that

Nope. Pixel Launcher AND Google Now Launcher.
It's coded into the new sdk so it will be available on to other launchers soon

TSF Launcher Crashes

TSF Launcher keeps crashing on my nexus 7 Device, I really don't understand why it keeps crashing it won't even boot up? I am on android 4.2, the reason I want this app is because a YouTuber Amando or Armando something will be releasing a Ubuntu theme for this launcher.

This was a problem with TSF, but latest version fixed this. You should upgrade to latest version.

Full 4.4 KitKat experience

Hi there,
I recently purchased my nexus 7. I used to have an XDA account from years ago.
Basically, tonight I installed the AOSP ROM released for the nexus 7 on rootzwiki forums and I found that it had the normal launcher so it seemed like a jelly bean ROM with a white theme to it. Since then I discovered I was able to download and install Google Home and that enabled me to use the new UI with the transparent status bar and nav bar. So far I like it a lot. Its quite stable with a few bugs and it will get better.
And a video on YouTube of the ROM

I would add screenshots but the xda app doesn't let me

The keyboard comes out when going to home
The keyboard comes out when going to home. Do you know how to disable it? As it's annoying.

Nope, haven't been able to find out how to either. And for me landscape mode messes up icon labels for me

I believe it's the launcher. As you can see, the Search Bar is out of place too, I have the Google Experience launcher on my n4, and it doesn't look like that. I believe this launcher wasn't N7.2 ready.

Nova pull down notifications

Is anybody using the swipe down for notifications? My phone freezes when I try to use it and I had accepted it on the accessibility tab.

Shouldn't freeze, but it will be super slow to pull down. That is a marshmallow bug that Nova's developer had submitted to Google. If it's actually freezing that's different and might be anice issue with something specific to your setup.

I'm not sure why it's happening either. Maybe I should just reset my nova launcher. The only times its worked is when I've been able to root my past phones with a similar setup on my Moto x pure, and nexus 6p.

This happened to me but then I updated to Nova Launcher beta apk and it cleared that issue. I think I had to register on Nova Launcher Google plus page.

[APP] Prism Assistant

Over the time of using HTC devices. I came to realize I used Blinkfeed for more of a news app than a Homescreen. Needless to say, finding ways of launching Blinkfeed along side another launcher can be tedious or "Rooty" routes. I found several different ways of launching or creating a shortcut for Blinkfeed in many different fassions. From using Nova launcher gesture actions to exposed module SenseToolbox. Im not a fan of rooting my new high class smartphone so i developed an easier method. This application was first designed for the HTCM7, than updated for the M8 and now revamped for the HTC10.
Prism Assistant is an intelligent shortcut to Blinkfeed or Sense Home. It has a combination of shortcuts allowed to the user for whatever they find easier to view their Blinkfeed to their advantage. Now, Sense Home needs to be installed on your device first for this application to work correctly. If your using a aosp or Cyanogenmod based custom rom, the unofficial port of Blinkfeed will work just as good. Prism Assistant will detect if Sense Home is or not installed and take action to help you.
PA allows the following for HTC10 devices
-Blinkfeed launcher shortcut
-Notification Listener shortcut
-Replace Google On Tap with Blinkfeed
You can grab Prism Assistant on Google Play here for a small fee https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.NxIndustries.Flip
Or
Free load and grab the apk here and wanna give it a test run first https://www.dropbox.com/s/u4qp6d746i9efii/PA-20.0-release.apk?dl=0
^i will update the dropbox version soon for anyone who doesn't have Google play or XDA Labs
Any comments, suggestions, and feedback welcomed.
Custom rom developers are welcomed to PM me for instructions of how to add Home Assist action provider shortcut to Sense Home if they would like the tweak baked in. Giving credit is the only requirement.

One more screenshot...
Bump.
I will be looking into making Prism Assistant a more diverse app soon by giving users a choice to choose what application to set the Home Assistant activity to so its useful to users who also use Blinkfeed.
Have had this app since it 1st came out, Flip, Flick, then Prism Assistant... great work as always

Lol I always wondered why it always had a new name. Seems like every update brought with it a name change

Prism Assistant has recieved one of its final end of life updates this weekend also making the app free to all and ads will appear in the toolbar (very easy to evade) and a minimal material design. Links have been updated and some quirks patched.
Another update will be pushed soon for final patches.
Thankyou for using prism Assistant

Camera application

Hi me and my dad have the same phones. The nexus 6p, and some of application icons such as the camera app are different. Even though they are the same version of the app and android 7.1.2. Any reasons why?
Do either of you use a custom launcher with icon packs?
