Is there the possibility to install Google Discover instead of Samsung Free on the S5E?
I'm on UI 3.1, apparently it is possible on some phones, but has the S5E been left out?
Cheers all!
Nova Launcher and the Nova Google Companion app.

Hi.. I am looking to install google now launcher on my AT&T Galaxy S5.. I was just wondering will there any issues with using the launcher and Google Now.. I am big fan of them both. Also when Google updates either of these, will i be able to update in Play Store?? I am asking this because I am side loading the launcher. Response is appreciated.
I tried to but can't, maybe change to Nexus 5 in build.prop.
For now you will have to side load any update to that app until Google makes it available for non nexus devices. As you probably already know sideloading works perfectly fine

I want to run Nova Launcher (or any other launcher of that sort) on my Gear 2 Neo running Adroid Wear 1.3, but every time I sideload it, it crashes. Any ideas? Also, if anyone knows how to flash the null rom onto the Gear 2 please let me know. Thank you
Isn't Nova Launcher made for phones? I don't think its made for watches.
Yeah, most apks that are made for phones will crash on Wear.
So i recently purchased the P8 lite as a substitute for my Z3 which is currently at Sony repair for a new display and I was very surprised about what I got for such a low price (169€ @mediamarkt). I always used Nova Launcher on my Z3 cuz I just really liked the UI of it and since Huawei UI isn't my cup of tea I decided to install Nova Launcher again. After manualy updating to Marshmallow (which is available as a beta) I wasn't able to set Nova as my default launcher. Since you're NEVER the only one with a problem on an android device, here is my contribution to our wonderful community!
It's actually quite easy...
1. Settings>Apps>Advanced>Default app settings>Launcher
2. Select your launcher!
If you use Google Now Launcher you need to have the Google App installed.
I faced this problem because my phone language was German and the translations aren't really appropriate.
For German people you can find the Setting here:
Einstellungen>Apps>Erweitert>Standard-App Einstellungen>Übersicht
I hope that this helps some people with the same device
A Thank you would be nice
Hello.
I have a Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) and I use the Google Now Launcher. I rely on having the google app to the left of the main home screen for notifications about traffic, weather and news. I like having it there a lot. Today I noticed that it was no longer accessible from there.
I looked this up and it sounds like Google plan to discontinue the Google Now Launcher and replace it with the "Pixel Launcher". But naturally, my device is not supported by this new app.
I downloaded and installed this, and it seems like the Pixel Launcher (or something similar to it, nearly identical) works on my device now. It was very convenient to have because I do not want to Root my phone.
At first the side-panel Google app worked with this (bootleg?) Pixel Launcher, but after I was done customizing my home screens it stopped working. I checked all the options like "Google app to the left of main screen" and such things, and they didn't change anything. It only started working again when I re-booted the phone.
My question is: what made it stop? Can I still get the Google side-panel to open on the original Now launcher (with which I am more used)? I like the Pixel launcher but I prefer to use officially-supported apps so I can get updates for them, and I don't believe the one I downloaded (from the link above) will get any updates.
Any help would be appreciated.
Just downgrade to the old Google Now Launcher
