I just updated to the latest version of Google Play Music and got the new UI, it looks good and everything, but there's one problem, the homescreen widget changed from 4x1 to 3x1 for some reason. Now, It looks crappy and I want the 4x1 widget back. I have already uninstalled updates/force stop/disable re enabled/rebooted, no luck. I don't know why this is happening now 0or if it is happening to any others, but yeah, I thought the play music widget was resizable 4x1, now it is a unresizeable 3x1. Help please! How do I get it back to 4x1?
Rooted Nexus 7, Stock Jellybean 4.2.2
I also have Nova launcher installed so I checked and on Nova launcher the widget was 4x1 instead of 3x1, the correct size it was before I updated the play music app, which can also be resizes on Nova launcher. What could be causing the problem? Should I clear data/uninstall updates/force stop other applications besides the music app (I already tried those things on the music app.) Like Google services, framework, etc?
The top screenshot is the Nova launcher app drawer /widget section, the bottom is the stock launcher app drawer/widget section.

One more thing, I noticed when I go into landscape that on the stock launcher widget section, the play music widget changes from 3x1 to 4x2, and you can see the way it is. Did I do something wrong or is this hot not working correctly?
How do I fix this!?

Hi,
Is anyone using the new Google experience launcher (on KitKat 4.4), if so when you rotate the device so the home screen is in landscape mode do you have the top row of app icons hidden under the Google search bar.
I have cleared data and cache for the launcher and Google search app (the two apps needed for the new launcher) but still have the problem.
The search app is the official update from the play store and the launcher app I sideloaded.

Search bar in landscape mode

I've been getting this issue as well. I believe in landscape mode, the search bar is not supposed to be visible (or at least not supposed to be a bar) and to fit in with the animation, it is supposed to glide off the top of the screen.
But I wouldn't know how to fix this.
new BUG!!

Hi guys,
Now that bug has been fixed with new 0.10 APK of the Launcher and new Google Now but...
now there's a new several bug:
The icon in lower right angle of the App Dock is disappearing on every reboot, hopefully that BigG will fix this ASAP.
thank you in advance for any extra effort
bye

Please ignore my spelling mistakes. English is not my native language.
For anyone wanting to make the stock ASUS Launcher look a bit more like stock Lollipop, I found an icon pack called LolliPop Colored on the Play Store. Applied via the icon packs setting in the launcher, it doesn't do anything other than change the wallpaper and app drawer icon. I then use the standard Nexus blue wallpaper.
You can get the same result by using the Google Now launcher. Plus it's an official app. You'll also get the "Okay google" function from any screen using this launcher instead.

Sure you can use google now, or nova or apex. That's not the point. For various reasons some people, myself included, want to use the stock Asus launcher. This is just a way to have it slightly nearer in appearance to stock lollipop's material design. Oh, and "OK Google" from any screen is available in the stock launcher too - it's an option in Google settings.

Sorry, I don't know how to share links for google play store apps (there's no sharing option like there is on apple app store). But if you search "LolliPop Colored theme" it will be top of the search results (it's by Alper Selzer)
I installed xposed framework yesterday. Using gravitybox module to activate softkeys (and expanded desktop so that can hide them again easily). Then used Xstana module to change the ASUS softkeys and status bar icons to Lollipop style. With WM Density changed to 270 (on my 550) I now have the stock ASUS Launcher just how I want it
Im still not root but i envy those navigation bars
guess have to get one too hehe
iphone
Now we can easily get iphone looks without any file, in latest ASUS launcher.

Because you have ASUS Apps on your ZenFone 2, not Google Apps.
Nova launcher with glim icon pack
I have all Google app installed I think.
What do you mean by Google App ?
Asus say me to see whith Google but Google says me to see whith ASUS.
Thnaks for your help.
What apps' icons are you talking about? If you mean things like settings, dialer and downloads, then you have ASUS versions instead of Google/AOSP, so the icons are different. Using Google Now launcher won't change those icons.
This probably sounds like such a dumb question, but how can I get the google search bar on the home screen, to be the slide over style like the pixel so it isn't taking up so much space. I have Google Assistant installed, and I don't see a setting in Google app to make it the smaller icon
You need to have the beta version of Nova Launcher installed, then select the Google pill as the Search bar style. Check out the video in this guide...

You need the leaked Nexus launcher zip. Works like a charm, search for it on these forums. Anyway, it's much less complicated than the approach below.

Any idea how to enable round icons on Galaxy S8 like tbe ones on the Pixel? I do not want to use custom launcher. I have installed Pixel Launcher and Pixel launcher icons but still does not give me the round icons for many apps like Youtube, Play Store, Play Music, etc. I hope someone could help me out.
Use nova launcher and a pixel icon pack. Works fine for me
There is no way to have them round.
That being said, samsung did include a frame option in an attempt to make the icons unified as look.
You can find that option in settings - display - icon frames.

I don't believe that there is no way. I have seen before that it's like a one line of code that triggers the use of round icons of the app as long as the app itself supported it. I just can't seem to find that thread now.
