I was testing some launcher (Smart Launcher 3 Pro) and it is permanently showing the home buttons.
I disabled it on the Hide Home Button setting, but after removing the app the home buttons are permanently showing on my stock launcher.
What am I missing, how do I revert it to normal?
I've practically enabled hide home button on every app but its stuck on my stock launcher

I'm sorry I don't understand your question. Are you trying to get rid of your navigation bar? Or just on certain app?
Let me rephrase it.
I was testing a downloaded launcher which has the home buttons permanently shown.
After uninstalling and reverting to the stock launcher, the home buttons were stuck to being shown permanently.
Im talking about home button on the launcher not on apps
I even tried hiding all the home buttons on all apps, but since my issue is with my stock launcher. It didn't work

You can't hide the home buttons on stock launcher.

Something weird just happened to me. Before I was on Gingerblur and when I press the home button, the screen would go back o default screen. If I started off from the default screen and then pressed the home button. then the Dub screens would appear. Now that option is gone. The only why I can bring up my sub screens is if I press the app drawer icon in motoblur. If I press the home screen, nothing happens. Is this a bug or can this be easily corrected in the settings. Please advise. Thanls
Once you install gingerblur you get the stock gingerbread launcher which does no support that function. Try installing ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro from the Market.

I reverted back to stock so now all I have done to the phone is aRoot. It worked in the beginning, but now it doesn't.
I am going to pick up a Nook Touch tomorrow as it looks like an amazing upgrade from my Kindle 3rd Generation especially once rooted. Reading some RSS feeds (preloaded via wifi) out in the sun will be great.
My question is, once you install an alternate launcher like ADW, does it stay the launcher even after rebooting? All the videos show launching apps via a PC which is not feasible in a real work scenario.
Also, how do you then run the stock B&N reader app? Does this just show up as an app that you can launch?
Thanks!
After I installed ADW. On reboot, the Nook asks which launcher you want to start in. Choose ADW. The problem is that once you go to the default Home screen, you can't get back to ADW.
A fix for this (which is what I did) was to install SoftKeys. Set up SoftKeys so that the SoftKeys Home screen goes to ADW. Then make sure that SoftKeys is accessible in the notification bar.
Now, whenever I'm back to B&N's crappy default home screen, I just click on the SoftKeys link in the notification bar, then use SofKeys Home button to take me back to ADW.
There is probably an easier way, but this works.
set ADW as your default launcher. also, using softkeys, set it up so that a hard press of the "n" button will just bring you to your home screen (adw).
you can access the nook's native files by pressing the 'arrow' button underneath your launcher.
AW Launcher
Install SoftKey, Under settings select run as service, and place it in the notification bar. this way even if you are in the B&N default screen you push the softkey home button and it allows you to go the AW launcher without the need to reboot.
Dear,
Since i'm experimentating with my homescreen and using different launchers i deleted the button just above my dock to go to all apps. currently i'm using nova launcher and i don't know how i can add the button again.
Quiet irritating as i can't go to all my apps....
U should be able to add a new shortcut to the home screen labeled app drawer and the you can put that back in the original location
Indeed you need to hold the homescreen, the pick widget and there are soms widget of nova launcher included the app drawer! Thx mate!
I was looking in to the settings from nova launcher!

Hi,
I have recently installed iLauncher which has removed the Google search bar widget from the top of the home screen. I am also aware that other launchers like nova can do this.
However, I am still unable to figure out how to remove the same google search bar that appears when I enter the app switcher (recent apps). This app switcher being what appears when you press the right hand side square button at the bottom of the screen on the home screen, where you can close the apps you have running.
I have no clue how to remove the search bar from here and it is very annoying, as it is on the switcher but not on my home screen and I do not want it on either.
I have included screenshots of my home screen and the switcher so you see what I mean.
Thanks.

It depends on the custom ROM you're running, most custom ROM's have their own settings menu to configure options that are usually not found in AOSP. You have to search there and see if there's a menu for recent apps and the option to show or hide search on recent apps should be there.
Xposed and GravityBox is always an option

I am not running a custom ROM though, just stock marshmallow with a different launcher installed.
Is there really no way to remove the search bar from recent apps?
You can do either of the above or request the launcher dev to include it. That's 3 options, just for you.
Nova Launcher allows this to be removed
Hello guys,
On all launchers back button is visible on the home screen. Is there a way to adjust this?
On stock launcher back button shows up only if there is something to back. If you are in the app per example.
Thanks
Nope there is no current way to get rid of it. Any non-stock launcher currently, will have an always on back button due to how Google implemented it. IIRC it had something to do with it being a root level function kind of like the swipe in Google Now/Feed panel found on the stock launcher.
