Not all icons updating on P beta - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

I've noticed that on the P beta, when I change the icon shape in the default launcher, some change, but others don't. However, in multitasking they're all correct. Does this happen to anyone else?

[Q] Wallpaper size issue,

Hi,
I have recently installed 4.4.2 and my launcher is Go Launcher Ex,
The problem is with the wallpaper which is goes all the way under the screen keys and notification bar,
Since it’s a white wallpaper it makes the status bar almost invisible,
This didn’t happen to me on 4.2.2 where the status bar remains with black background,
Does anyone knows how to change this?
Thanks,
Ok , I guess this was quick…
I have managed to resolve this by going into Go Launcher “common settings” then remove the checkbox from “3D Core(Beta)”
Thanks,
This is an attempt to mimic the behavior found in the Google Experience Launcher. To make the nav bar see through. Since this is the behavior most Launchers are working toward, it might be a better idea not to use white wallpapers. Who knows when it won't be a switch anymore.

Status Quick Setting Icons Gone?!?!?

I have no idea how this happened. Running 7.1.1 Nova Launcher with KLWP background.
The quick settings icons are all gone besides wifi and carrier data.
Any ideas on what may have caused this? Any solutions?

Not sure where those are gone...
Maybe a workaround:
Tap on the pen between your photo and the gear icon, you can edit: add/remove quick tiles from here.
Are all your icons here?
Good luck...
I had that happen to me on Nova Launcher when I enabled Dark Icons for the Notification Bar under look and feel when I was using a dark theme or night mode, don't remember which. The icons were still there but I couldn't see them until I disabled dark icons.
Thank you guys, I was able to get the icons back by going through the pencil and re-adding them.

I'm running Nova and I don't have that issue.
You might need to tweak the settings but I came from a LG G6 and my settings just worked.
hi, in settings what have you got your display settings as? default with default font? are you in immersive with nav bar dropping away after a few seconds or is it static? thanks
Fixed: some conflict (I guess) between settings in Nova/Evia and immersive and resized Navbar. so I just went back to stock settings and restored a nova backup and all is well.

Android 11, oxygen 11 final, default launcher won't stick

I noticed on the android 11 final version, and with a fresh install that when setting a home launcher that ain't the OnePlus original launcher. after different amount of time the when going to home, the phone keeps asking for the "what app to set to default"
So with the OnePlus launcher it sticks and won't ask ever again for default launcher.
But with 4 different launchers, Microsoft, Nova and more, after second and more, up to 20 times going to home screen, it asks for what app to set to default launcher?
Any one more than me experiencing this issue?
It's quite annoying to keep seeing the default launcher.... So please write here if you having this issue.
There's another thread regarding that issue and I've posted an answer: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83684893&postcount=5.
I had this problem too. I solved it by setting Nova Launcher as default in the Nova Launcher settings... Afterwards i can see it in my OP8pro standard apps as well...
Cheers
Clark
I did that too. However, sometimes the machine switches to the OP Launcher - it must be some kind of error in the system.
Have Nova as default and still watching 11 behavior...
Deliting the launcher and reinstalling, then first time it says would u want nova launcher as default say yes and solved at least for me. Hope messages from developers
I don't know what happened to my phone, but since a few weeks I didn't experienced this issue anymore.

Sideloaded icons missing on 4k Max

Has anyone else noticed that the icons for any side-loaded apps on the new 4k max are display as a generic dark-colored icon and not the app's proper icon?
True, but not for all application. Some apps has icons, but display a simple icons. Like e.g. the droid robot, or other simple icons. But some apps icons OK, like AFRd.
This is a problem with FireOS7 not looking for icons in the standard folder that most nonFireOS apps use.
This is an explanation and way to fix. But you will have to redo this everytime you update the app. A bit of a hassle. You can use a costum launcher that hides the problem.
How to Fix Missing or Broken Icons for Sideloaded Apps on Amazon Fire TV
There appears to be a bug on select Amazon Fire TV devices that prevents the icon of some sideloaded apps to display correctly on the Home screen and Apps screen. Instead of the app icon appearing, a gray icon with a slash through it appears.

Does anyone know if using a different launcher, like Wolf launcher, will have all the proper icons displayed w/o having to modify each APK?

Yes Wolf Launcher (ATV Launcher), leanback, etc show the icons of sideloaded apps properly.
The custom launchers were created with Android in mind, and look for the icons in the standard folders.
The broken icons is just a quirk of how Amazon decided to build the FireLauncher for FireOS7.
Make sure to check the news about the newest FireOS update disabling custom launcher use. You'll need to disable updates if you want to use them.
