FYI, you can make Nova Launcher function pretty much exactly like Pixel Launcher. Just a thought...

Hello,
I tested today Google Experience Launcher, it has a nice feature, when you swip with your finger to left, than you see Google Now.
I want that to, but only with Nova Launcher, how is that posible?
Unfortanely, I don't like the Google Experience Launcher, only the Google Now function when you swipe with your finger to the right.
Many thanks my friends!

from what i tried with the Nova launcher is that you can get the transparency but nothing else...the Google Now side i think that is a closed source
Pff, I never don't have luck.
Oke, thanks man, It should be a nice feature with Nova Launcher.
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.
Thanks in advance.

Furthermore, I love the new "normalise icon" feature. It works beautifully.
+1 for Nova. If you got the $50 credit, get Nova Prime (paid), although test out the free one first to see if you like it.
I like Action Launcher 3 better than Nova but the latter is as good as it gets if you want to set up the phone old school. Realistically everyone should have a second launcher installed off the market just to get the backup for a corrupt stock launcher. You don't have to use it but if the stock launcher is hosed Android will start the phone up with the second which will allow you to get through your day and deal with the fix later.
Perhaps someone else will flesh this out for you but the reason people are saying install another launcher may be because you didn't used to be able to rid yourself of the search bar without root on Nexus devices. Not sure if this has changed since I only screwed around with it when it first came out for about the 5 minutes it took to figure out I hated it and haven't looked back since. Maybe that has changed though...
the gesture capabilities are nice on Nova too. i do a double tap to launch the Play Store for App updates.

You should download the screen off app and bind the double tap to turn off the screen. That for off and the fingerprint for on, you'll never have to touch the power button (but double tapping the power button for quick camera is still pretty awesome, so you probably will - lol).
any non root/rom ways to get screen to turn on with double tap or something by touching the screen?

You can use nova/screen on to turn it off and it doesn't require root. To turn on, you can use the fingerprint sensor.

Screen Off and Lock Apps break Nexus Imprint

The only thing I do not like about Nova is that it does not play nice with Google Now. Or at least that is the case on my tablet.

Have you ever had the launcher go bad? I never had that happen.
Nova launcher is reporting bug with pulling down notification shade and says Google is aware. This is marshmallow only.

Twice. Once when switching themes and once with an app conflict that hosed ADW. I normally have multiple launchers installed as I like to switch things up but it also comes in handy when the chips are down.

OK, so third party launchers? I always keep stock launcher active. I'm going to give the stock launcher a decent chance but that bar might drive me to Nova or action.

That doesn't make any sense. I've been using it for a few days and I've had no problems with Imprint at all.
Update: I take that back. So, I just played with it a little bit and you're right. If I power off via the button, imprint allows me to power on and unlock immediately. If I double-tap to power off, when I touch the sensor, it still asks for the pin code.
I personally like the Google Now launcher. I don't see what's wrong with the search bar at the top, personally. I'm not a fan of the newest skin they put on it, though. The launcher, as a whole, though us functional and minimal, which is what I prefer. Having google now with a swipe to the right is a bonus.
Can anyone tell me how to remove the Google search bar on home page in stock launcher
Is it even possible??
I never use it
And want to replace it pixel widget
Yes that would help me too

Yeah, I tried it too, deactivate the Google app makes the buttons go away and it stops functioning but it will still be visible.
Alternatively you can install another launcher, that certainly does the job.
I did put a new launcher
Nova launcher pro
But lost my previous launcher backup and now it just too much headache

Nova launcher allow U to import setting and shortcuts from another launcher on 1st setup.
Hey, sorry if this has been asked before somewhere -- is there any more or less up to date APK of the Google Now Launcher? Unfortunately in Play Store is says my device is not compatible.
Check apkmirror for a download.
Not sure if it needs to be modded to run on other devices, haven't used it since the Pixel Launcher came out.
Thank you! I just found one Pixel Launcher so far. Its great but the Problem is that everytime I go to my homescreen the app icons above the Google search bar jump up and down slightly 4 or 5 times, really annoying couldnt find a way to deactivate that.
