Kick ass work. Couldn't ask for a better launcher. I bought it the first week it came out after ice cream sandwich and I've loved it since.

Anyone who complains just doesn't know what they're doing.
[Nova Launcher] stark_br:
Agreed, but status bar and navigations look ugly while on app drawer.
[Nova Launcher] decmk:
Great update but old bug is still here.

Drawer tab scroll indicator need to be relative to tab only when isolated tab is on, in other way is still buggy.

Example.

Three tabs.

Each tab have one page of apps.

Isolated tabe is off.

Instead of three dots i have one dot in every tab.

Edit: only major bug I see is that when in drawer mode, the "transparent bar" does not match the transparency of the draw.

Calm down people its only beta... And its freaking awesome :D:D:D:D
[Nova Launcher] scottx .:
Looks fine to me. How do you mean?
[Nova Launcher] PunchTheLion:
^ Change the drawer transparency to something darker.

Yeah, only beta - thanks to the devs for this sneak peak. I love Nova and understand time taken to code something like this. Just saying only thing I've noticed.

is it working on the LG G2? rooted or stock? some are saying its working on theirs but mine is stock.

Thanks for the light folder background. Maybe in the future we can choose the color not just light and dark. Or maybe a different color for the edge of the the square once opened....

[Nova Launcher] tititake:
Working great on LG G2, nearly perfect for me.

Only one suggestion, with LG stock launcher, user could double tap desktop then lock screen, and it support double tap to wake device when screen off.

After changed to Nova, I have to double tap the status bar to do that.

Could Nova introduce a Lock Screen action, so we could link it to double tap gesture on desktop, make Lock Screen more natural?

Sorry if this has been asked, search is not working now.

Thanks!

I set Nova double tap -> Tasker task-> Secure Settings->Lock Device to do that now.

Since Tasker and Secure Settings are already installed, I don't have to install any app now. :good:

Using Beta 10 with Axiom 2.4 and Franco's kernel, I am having an issue when I cycle between hitting the 'home' button then attempt to get in my app drawer. The app drawer is empty and I have to restart Nova by 'searching' for it and restarting it from the settings. Getting back to my home screen via the back button doesn't cause this problem.
[Nova Launcher] lynseyw:
Mine is doing it too.
[Nova Launcher] just4747:
Is this supposed to work properly on a Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi for example? I am running CM9 Kang which is 4.0.3 but Nova seems messed up. Even though I set it up as 8x7, icon text is cut off, icons do not respond to taps, and you can't move or do anything to icons or widgets period. Also, when you scroll to other homescreens, the screen "cube" lines still looks very small like a phone size almost.
[Nova Launcher] the1dynasty:

Could you consider integrating this widget picker with Nova launcher? It has the look and feel of ICS, I flashed it manually and it works great.
[Nova Launcher] just4747:
+1111111111!!!!!

I've also installed this manually as system app, and it is so nice. It groups them together, looks better, and also when you press back it lets you go back to the selections instead of back to the homescreen like stock.

Gabster, does yours have the blue text like that at the top though? Mine is white like normal.. Also I have a white background instead of that nice gray..

I liked this launcher and i will also buy it when it becomes available. I have one plea though. Please don’t sacrifice the launcher speed for options. I think the smoothness of the launcher should be top priority, not that it isent now. I just love the smoothness of ICS launcher. keep up the good work.

I was wondering if anybody knows some ICS looking widgets on the market? If you do please send me a message.

Request for fling app drawer option

First of all thank you for this launcher. You have done some great work.:D

I have a request for a feature. Could you add an option to fling the pages of the app drawer? I really miss being able to scroll through the app drawer really quickly. I have about 5 pages of apps and to get to the last page should not take five gestures.

If there was an option to fling and quickly have each page flip by, then just tap to stop when you get to the page you want. I would think this could be implemented easily with Android's OnGestureListener and GestureDetector (if you do not already have a fling solution built). A light fling would just flip one page, while a hard fling would flip multiple pages.

This could even be added to scrolling through the homescreens;)

New beta (2.3 Beta 1) is working great on my GS3 running TW 4.1.2: transparent notification bar, white folders, KitKat screen indicators. Thank you Kevin for the awesome quick update with KitKat goodies.
[Nova Launcher] yomiguy:
Wow mates! I can't believe it! My phone is another one! Much cooler! LOL I usually don't install beta versions, but since I heard about transparent status bar I needed to try, and I got it in my s4!

Right now everything is working great!

Thanks Kevin!

How do you get transparent notification bar on SG3 TW 4.1.2? I thought I read somewhere that 4.3 was required and I didn't see the option when I briefly had this beta installed.
[Nova Launcher] RossFixxed:
I'm on an S4 with 4.3, beta and prime installed... No transparent status bar option. Kind of failed out of the gate for me. I'm running a google edition ROM so I assume that's the issue.

Have you tried restarting Nova to see if the icon disappears? I've never had this problem.
[Nova Launcher] Dav_prime:
The beta update is a real step toward getting the look and feel of kitkat launcher, looking forward to future tweaks. I am running nova on my N7 and stock on my N4 to compare at the moment (both running the early 4.4 AOSPA builds)

One issue I have found so far is the nav bars not dimming in app tray.

Anyway Thanks for your hard work, Just bought prime from the market so have a beer (of half a beer) on me :)

One general Question. I have multiple Gmail accounts so use the Gmail label in short-cuts to create separate links for them. If there any way to get unread counts working on these?
[Nova Launcher] donalgodon:

Is there a way to make Nova use a white background with black text rather than the standard holo gray? :confused:

[Nova Launcher] blackhand1001:
Good update but I don't think the condensed font should be set as the default. Its only going to be used on the nexus 5 by default. Its also quite ugly on lower resolution screens. Normal should be the default option in my opinion.

Also for the longest time I have wondered why cube is the default home transition. It always seemed strange to me. Would make much more sense if it was set to none (slide) by default since that's the default in android.

Well on my Note 3 I have 2.2.3 from the Play Store and the option is there, but the same install on my Nexus does not have it. I did download and install the beta APK for 2.3beta 1 and now have the transparent bar. Just not sure why it is available on my Note 3 with 2.2.3 and not on the Nexus 7 unless I install 2.3beta 1. But either way I got it now. :)

Can anyone explain why the transparent notification/status bar and transparent navigatior bar options are not available on my Galaxy S 3 running CM 10.2? Why is this feature not supported on CM 10.2?
[Nova Launcher] lanwarrior:
FYI, it has been asked in this thread and also in Google Play comment. The answer is:

1). Arrange app INSIDE folder. Folder inside drawer (not home screen) --> NEVER GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED

2). Arrange folder inside drawer --> NEVER GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED

If I am wrong, then somebody chime in, because I have searched the forums and Google and the above cannot be done. My post on this a while back also goes unanswered.
[Nova Launcher] damagedbits:
Cyanogenmod has never had a transparent navbar/statusbar. That feature is only for ROMs that support it, hence it's an issue you'd be better off taking up with your ROM dev.
[Nova Launcher] sweenish:
Tried search, came up dry

This is a bit of an issue I've been having that I would like some info on. If it's something I'm doing, I can fix it. If it needs fixing in the app, I'll put the request in through the uservoice.

Here goes:

- I apply an icon theme

- I manually theme an icon like my flashlight app (in the drawer, not just the shortcut on desktop)

- I change the icon theme

- The flashlight app icon does not change (stays on old theme)

- Any app that I manually theme, I forever have to manually theme (even though icon packs support that app)

Some other apps like the battle.net authenticator don't even theme at all unless I do it manually. And after applying a theme and trying to go back to default, Nova thinks the themed icon is now the default.

All apps on my phone are legitimate through the Play Store or Humble Bundles. I know some of the Humble Bundle apps use different activity names, but it's also an issue on my paid-for apps like Rayman Jungle Run.

The crux of the issue is that if I ever manually theme an app, Nova will never automatically theme it anymore. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this a shortcoming of Nova? I have tried uninstalling re-installing. I have cleared all data from the App Info screen.

Help is appreciated. I don't want to switch launchers over this. I find Nova fantastic in everything I want, but this is getting very annoying.

[Nova Launcher] PunchTheLion:
Noticed some people have a completely transparent bar.

On nexus 5 I only ever get a shadowed transparent bar not fully 100% transparent like some of the phones on here.

Try changing your wallpaper to a lighter background.
[Nova Launcher] PunchTheLion:
Yes I tried even 85% white. A slight shadow seems to be permanently on. It also on stock launcher but I notice people with different phones had no shadow.
[Nova Launcher] niteh@wk:
They could be running a custom ROM with status bar transparency control, like mine. I'm running a custom TW ROM and can adjust the transparency of the status bar to 100%.
[Nova Launcher] whyalwaysme:
Those image was in home screen. Can you post the app drawer screen? Just want to see your status bar and nav bar.
[Nova Launcher] starkly_raving:
The N5 has a gradient status bar. Its not going to be fully transparent.
[Nova Launcher] neerajvd:
As far as I know, this is the default behaviour of Nova icon theming. If you manually change an icon,it will remain on manual mode even if u change themes. To revert the behavior, you have to edit the icon again and set it to the built-in icon setting. This will theme the icon as per you theme when u change.

For apps which are not getting themed, is it happening for a specific icon pack or all? If it's all,then you can report to Kevin on his site. If its a specific icon pack, mail the dev of the icon pack for rectifying the activity name.

Please share your home screen resources.

Love the continued support, dev. Small Bug report.

Dock as overlay results in a delayed response on refreshing the margin-bottom value of the dock page scroll indicator. Stays at 0 until indicator animation is triggered. Never noticed with the tiny line from jellybean but maybe this is an older bug.

Not a big deal at all really, and if that's all I can find for constructive criticism of the new build.... keep up the good work sir

[Nova Launcher] TadeoNYC:
While we are on the topic of icon themes. I have a bug that I'm not sure is a fault of the theme packages from stealthychief or Nova. When I try to change folder background to a custom icon from the theme Nova stalls on the selected icon. The steps would be edit folder, edit icon, select theme, then icons list appears, and when an icon is selected it just does nothing.
[Nova Launcher] ylexot:
Arranging apps inside of a folder in the drawer can be done, but it doesn't work the way you might think and takes a few more steps. Of course, if the arrangement of your apps is that important, then you'd have to be massively lazy to be concerned with a few more steps. ;)

1) Make your folder with all of your apps in the drawer.

2) Copy that folder to your home screen.

3) Re-arrange the apps in the folder on your home screen. The apps in the folder in the drawer will now be re-arranged.

4) Remove the folder from your home screen.

5) ...

6) Profit!

Please fix the transparent status bar shadow effect on the Galaxy Note 3! I know the Note 3 is not on Android 4.4 yet, but similar to the Galaxy S4 it has a transparent status bar shadow effect turned on from the factory. As you can see in the attached screenshots, Apex Launcher implements this correctly, but Nova does not.

That is correct. If I for example the quick settings or the "recently launched apps" open, the transparency of the dock and statusbar is adjusted. not in the drawer. looks unsightly (not a bug?)
[Nova Launcher] ezio84:
No, the status bar is totally transparent, you have to set drawer transparency to 100% (or 0 and the status bar will be black too).

An option to set a black status bar (or a darker one) with a transparent drawer would be handy.

[Nova Launcher] niteh@wk:
You may need to wait for a custom KitKat ROM that has the ability to adjust the status bar transparency level. I'm looking at AOKP ROM as they are working on it. Apps cannot adjust status bar transparency level, that's in the UI framework. KitKat has an API where apps can call to turn on/off transparency but not the levels.
