If I am not wrong you are using an older version of OnePlus Launcher for the multitasking.
In this there is no option to get an app locked. You have to update the OnePlus Launcher to the latest one to get the option.
This has been my own experience.
If someone else knows a version of OnePlus Lancher which has the lock option, please provide the version.

Thats right. I'm using the older version 2.5.1, because Im unable to update it to the newer version,
I download the several apk with ver.3.X.X but when I try to install it, every single apk with ver. 3.X.X failed to install for me.

This was going to be my suggestion as well. Because that's what I had to do.
Uninstall updates for launcher, Restart the phone and then update the launcher from PlayStore.

Could you upload an apk? Is it just the apk or are there any other tweaks you did?

Here is an arm 64 bit version for our Honor 8's. Let us all know how it goes.
Update: Too large to upload. So here is the link from apkmirror. Of course, one uses at their own risk.
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...p-6-13-5-16-alpha-arm64-android-apk-download/
How in the world did you get that working? Installing this apk just updates the version of the Google app I had.. I don't have any personalization in the settings window.
Nothing changed for me. Maybe it's because I have UK English or something else, but I'm running Nougat on my Honor 8, so not sure what else it could be.
Changed to US English and cleared the local data cache. Made no difference...
Any ideas?
Yes, very interesting.
I tried installing that too, but didn't work for me.
I think people are trying to figure out what triggers it. Could be location, language, some combination of settings, or some lucky number in the IMEI.
But hey, that's cool, enjoy it.
Hopefully it will roll out to everyone soon.
Still nothing on mine. Have tried all sorts.
Has anyone else gotten this to work by installing the Google Alpha that was linked? If so, what did you do to get it working?

Nothing for me
Which model did you have ? pixel launcher?
Common sense that, this kind of apk need to be install in system app folder to make it work.

FRD-L09C432B360 (UK phone), and I'm running Action Launcher 3. However, I did install the latest release of Pixel Launcher, in case it's tied into that, but didn't make any difference.

Oneplus launcher on Nexus 6p

Oneplus's​ most recent beta update introduced an update to oxygenos's launcher which made it look and feel almost exactly the same as the pixel launcher. Which got me wondering for us 6p users with the death of Google now launcher could we get this running? Many may be asking why not just use the pixel launcher well one massive reason native icon pack support. (Not the biggest fan of nova) so this seems the best option for me personally any help would be appreciated

I will just add that this apk has been installed and crashes when i attempt to open it. It has also been installed into root directory with the same outcome any suggestions?

Did you try going it to app settings and granting it all permission? On 7.1.2 stock it hangs slightly longer before crashing, could do that then clear the cache and see if it starts up

Did you get running, still working on it, or was that statement a lie???
Seriously, how far did you get? Could a custom ROM build in the support for the OP launcher? I don't want to start the investigation from scratch

ZE552KL WW_14.2020.1703 update disable theme, need earlier SystemUI

Seems like theming is no longer possible on WW_14.2020.1703. All themes can't be downloaded, instead, it sends 'waiting' message that seems to last forever. Anyone experiencing this? If by any chance. SystemUI apk from earlier version of android N could be shared, preferably from 1701, it would be much appreciated. I'd like to go back to a theme that brings me closest to stock android quick setting appearance.

If you have rooted, just disable themes app, change the apk in system with an older version released at the end of last year, enable and wipe data. If app crashes, wipe theme app data, disable, reboot and enable.

I also tried to install compatible themes (according to developers description from Playstore) with Asus launcher but no luck. I don't have root. Is there another method without root access ?
I like Asus launcher but i hate his icons/notifications

Icon packs does a better job for that. You don't need themes. I prefer icon pqcks from Sourabh Gupta. He updates icons frequently and all his icon packs has 5700+ icons. His latest Android O Icon Pack is pretty awesome. It is paid though.

I'm afraid that's not possible without root unless Asus re-enable the option in future update. I think the transparency of quick setting might cause issue(s) with currently available themes. And you're right, quick setting with the rounded toggles and notifs, especially in lock screen, are painfully ugly.
Hi guys, there's a fresh post https://www.xda-developers.com/downgrade-an-app-android-no-root/ , anyone has successfully downgraded to earlier version of zenui with third party theme support?

Google search bar

Hi all.
I tried to google answer and haven't found anything useful.
Is there any chance to remove Google search bar from main screen? I tried to disable app, but after rebooting bar is still there. Just inactive. Read somewhere that it's built into stock launcher. So only way to remove it is to change launcher? No other way with/without root?
Yes, without root you can only use another launcher. I can recommend you Nova Launcher.

Yup, if root, search with root explorer in system, system/priv-app /velvet , then rename velvet ,add .bak, like this velvet.bak or delete. I hope this helps, Saludos.
EDIT: is the only way to eliminate the google search bar that I know.

I did exactly as you said. Rebooted phone. Google app is missing from app list, but still have search bar on home screen. It's just inactive (clicking on it does nothing).

Forgot to mention. I have Oreo 8.0. Tried with Pixel Launcher, but still can't remove it. Will try Xposed method now or will wait for Oreo 8.1 update?
Anyway - thanks for your help
edit: Tried Xposed with "Google search bar destroyer" and "GEL settings" modules. None of them work. So before 8.1 update arrive on our phones I'm going to try other launchers. Starting with Nova.

I tried and failed to remove the google search bar, too... I ended up with Microsoft Launcher and find it works very well for what I want. I have not used Nova launcher for about 10 years I would say so I have no ideas on it now. But you could do worse than MS Launcher.
Don't over complicate things and be stubborn about staying on stock launcher. Nova is a great alternative, and I'm sure there are others out there as well. Apart from solving this particular issue you will have much more control of your home screens and app drawer.

Because its conflict with ur stock miui launcher.
thanks, but is there a solution ? If it's in conflict, no one should be able to install the Alpha or Beta.

Let me know:good:
So I'm back with some feedback, I deactivated the system launcher and attempted to install the Alpha version - "app not installed", same result with the Beta. Then I completely deinstalled the system launcher (after installing Poco launcher), and finally managed to install the Beta version from apk mirror website, but it kept crashing. I'm using Poco for now as I want an app drawer.

Install xposed if you haven't already and then CustoMIUIzer. There is a setting to downgrade apps. Just got the app drawer launcher working. Backup first if you don't have xposed installed. Just in case
Cheers
I'm gonna try that for sure, gonna come back with feedback later today.

New version released today (August 8, 2019) - ALPHA-4.12.1151-08072050 (41201151). It has no App Drawer.
Latest version witch has App Drawer is "ALPHA-4.10.6.1043-06261633 (41061043)".
Wonder if they have given up on App Drawer for good... it's sad, I really like this App Drawer...

It still have app drawer if installed on top of previous version with app drawer. There is no option to select app drawer or the classic one. Now have share button when long press an icon and "search for apps" at bottom of app drawer.

Wow! it works! I was uninstalling previous version and installing new one (witch I thought was the right procedure), and I was getting a Launcher without App Drawer.
So, we have to first install "ALPHA-4.10.6.1043-06261633 (41061043)", then we have to enable App Drawer (option in chinese in Launcher settings), to finally install "ALPHA-4.12.1151-08072050 (41201151)" and still have App Drawer (with new search option!!).
Thanks for your tip! It's really good news to see they are still working on App Drawer!
Hello,
Don't install the version ALPHA-4.16.0.1457-01131743 from January 19, 2020, its force close.
