Maybe a problem of writing on sdcard. Could you plug on a pc and run a checkdisk on your cards by right clicking and choose check drive?

not sure it it will help but worth a try.

Also you could try uninstall/reinstall alogcat or any logcat you use (if not using adb, but i wasn't following ...)

Try also to revoke, if not using adb, superusrer permission for alogcat or any and try again.

Edit:

Btw some custom kernel have an option to disable the log... did you check?
[Nova Launcher] pauljblo:
heres the file

got it working heres the log
[Nova Launcher] rashidkhan:
I've got exactly the same problem but even standalone app shortcuts are disappearing from home screens not inside a folder as well as app shortcuts from inside folders, for example Facebook shortcut disappeared in last reboot and its not on the sdcard. This has started happening since about a month now. Definitely a bug in the last update that needs to be fixed.

[Nova Launcher] rashidkhan:
What do you mean? "Have a try" of what?

no answer for my problem:confused:

forgot, I using LG nitro HD, rom Pac-man & stock rom have same problem.
[Nova Launcher] eilu1183:
I seem to be having a weird bug (using latest version)… some folders seem to be sorted randomly, most are alphabetical. I can hit menu and tap sort, but when the phone reboots (or I restart the launcher), they're back to their odd arrangement.

Not all folders are affected, and the sorting looks as if it's by order of installation, from oldest to newest (not 100% sure on that). I'd like to have them stay alphabetical. It's hard looking for apps when they look jumbled.
[Nova Launcher] n0j0e:
Doesnt work. Still vibrating! :(
[Nova Launcher] cammel:
I have the same problem of some apps/icons disappearing from a folder after reboot, but I find out that this happens only with apps that are installed into the external sd card. I tried with apex launcher and this doesn't happens so I think it is a bug with nova launcher..

EDIT :

I just went back to 2.1 version of nova and now everything is fine, no more disappearing icons on folders after reboot! :D

Hi everyone!

No problems here with the latest (according to Play Store) Prime version, just a suggestion.

In every launcher I had used, I've noticed that although you can change the app's icon in the desktop, you can't change (manually) the app's icon in the drawer.

All you can do is choose an icon theme, which will change massively every app's icon in the drawer. The problem with that, is that some icons don't change (even though the dev has created icons for them), which is a little bit disturbing. I know that this might be the dev's (who created the theme) fault, but if there was an option like the one I proposed above, this fault could be skipped.

I think it would have been awesome if we had something like that. :)
[Nova Launcher] Wullie32:
You can do this in Prime by going into the drawer and dragging the icons into the Edit settings in the top right hand corner, then pressing the icon in the pop up that appears.
[Nova Launcher] panos_ts:
Wow thanks for the answer and sorry for the fail! :good:
[Nova Launcher] jne67:
Anyone else have problems with drawer folder groups losing their content? I'm using Nova Prime 2.1.1 and after reboot (at least i think a reboot is needed) many of the apps I've put in drawer folder groups are gone and appear in the normal drawer instead. This happens all the time.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Read. The. Thread... If you looked back like two or three pages (or used the thread search function) you see that a few of us have been discussing it quite a bit. I'm looking through possible errors now, to see if there's a bug, or if this problem is only plaguing select devices. The S4 seems to be having the most issues with this.

*But seriously, I know you're new, but please get in the habit of reading back a few pages (or searching) before posting. We're all here to help, but we need everyone to do their part, and a quick scan through the last few pages ends up saving everyone headaches. :)

[Nova Launcher] Nucleotide:
I'm using the latest version of Prime and keep having this issue:

To fix it I just need to go back into Nova Settings, Folders, and choose the folder background again. Not a huge issue but thought I'd report just in case.
[Nova Launcher] danbiehl:
Having an issue where Widget names aren't being displayed in the drawer on my Atrix 2 running Nova Prime 2.1.1 and unrooted ICS 4.0.4.
[Nova Launcher] polobunny:
Seems like a theme issue. You're not running a completely stock rom are you?
[Nova Launcher] Frankie_Ho:
i m using LG G PRO now!

i love this launcher and i bought it:)

however, i got some problems here that has not been happened in my nexus 4

when i install some tools apps, for example floating notification, swipe home, swapps, smart statusbar and even the fb messenger chat head, the nova launcher will become very lag on the home screen, but every other things are smooth, even the app drawer, it just happens in the home screen:(

how can i fix this or this can't be fixed now?

sorry for my bad english but i reli need some help:(
[Nova Launcher] danbiehl:
It would make sense if it is just a conflict with the Motorola UI. My Atrix 2 is unrooted, running the standard ICS update that was released by Motorola last October, so not stock rom but still the official update.
[Nova Launcher] polobunny:
That seems like this could be the problem. :(

Is anyone else having a problem with the Play Store music library widget? Mine isn't displaying correctly in Nova.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
I have a dumb question... You've enabled it and set it up, right? It only works with certain apps, so if you're looking for it to give you an unread count for Twitter, for instance - it's not going to do that. Just double check to make sure you have things set up properly.
[Nova Launcher] dagoban:
Yes, I did.

It perfectly works on my gf's Samsung I9000, but not on my Razr I

[Nova Launcher] stick1300:
I totally forgot that you can set a folder to open on a swipe! I just set it up to open with a swipe, added a tap action to open the original app, then changed the icon to the app I want (Chrome, in this case). Brilliant! Thanks for reminding me!
[Nova Launcher] Ci-Fi:
I'm not seeing this option in Nova Settings...
[Nova Launcher] polobunny:
Long press icon in dock then edit it, you'll see.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
It's not in settings. Just long press an icon, select Edit, and a swipe action box will be in the edit window. Select 'swipe to open folder' and then select a tap action.

[Nova Launcher] Lownita:
Is it possible that nova launcher prime is causing random reboots while I use the phase beam live wallpaper? I am asking this because I am on a nexus 4 with custom rom and narrowed it down (I think) to the wallpaper. Now that no one else on this rom seems to have this problem, I was thinking that perhaps the launcher in correlation with my settings and this live wallpaper may be causing random reboots. Is there any way I can find out?

Thanks!

Tesla Unread no longer showing Kaiten mail?

I've noticed that Tesla unread no longer displays my Kaiten mail numbers.

This was working a little bit ago, but I can't narrow down when it stopped.

It almost coincides with the June 18 update of Kaiten mail...

Has anyone else encountered this?

I've double checked settings, un-install/re-install, etc, etc, etc,.

Upgrade No launcher

Hi all, i've this fantastic app installed on my Nexus 4 rooted with Slim Bean (latest 4.2.2 build 6), how i can upgrade the included Nova Launcher to the new version?

I just need to erase the apk from the Slim Center menu or i can simply overwrite everything installing the new one? I don't want doing something wrong, lose my settings or hang the phone since i'm a newb.

I don't have any Gapps installed, i don't have playstore so i can use othe apk file only provided by the creator.

Any tips and help is appreciated.

ps: Just sent an e-mail to the slim bean creator too, to be sure.

What does the "Long-press Menu" feature in "Gestures and Buttons" actually do?

I can't find a button that triggers the selected action...

EDIT: Ah, settings button. Seems to work outside launcher settings only :D

Yes, it's called Menu button actually. :p
[Nova Launcher] divers:
Will Nova have some "exotic" type of interfaces, that completely do not correspond to "Pure Google" android UI?
[Nova Launcher] polobunny:
Being built from AOSP launcher, I would say chances are very veeeery slim.

Anyway now it keeps a good balance between being customisable and style+lightness. So i'm not disappointed )

Can you add trasparent status bar also for HTC one ?
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
You're person number one hundred that is requesting the transparent status bar, and the answer is still no, and you don't win a prize.

P. S. If you want one so bad, flash CM ROM on your phone, then you can transparent anything you want.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------

First of all, you haven't disclosed the name of custom ROM that you're using. And the answer is no, base on two pieces of information you provided. It's unheard of that the combo of phase beam wallpaper and nova launcher cause random booting on custom or stock ROM. It's more likely has something to do with your system setting. If you moved many of your apps on the SD Card, and your internal storage is low, I did notice that will cause nova launcher to reboot randomly. But I've never heard nor seen phase beam wallpaper causing any trouble while running nova launcher.
[Nova Launcher] Lownita:
Thanks mate! My internal storage was indeed low, around 800 mb left. I will delete some things and see what happens. Rom is sabermod. But the strange thing is, without the wallpaper I don't get reboots anymore.

unusable launcher

unstable buggy launcher, unusable due app icons missing from homescreen bug

i paid for this launcher but its unusable & i didnt even got a response from developer when i emailed, neither did i got a response on my previous post, disappointed!:(
[Nova Launcher] gruntparty:
I am running on the latests version of nova (2.1.1) and im having app icons disappearing from folders, usually on reboots. I also emailed this dev in the past about another app of his (quicksshd) and he never replied to me as well.
[Nova Launcher] Namoi:
Well try another one... i recon i did sadly...
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Cool stories guys... Honestly, posts like these are completely useless. Neither of you have provided any semblance of information, related to your problem(s). There's no information about which device you're using, which ROM (if any) you're running, which icon pack (if any) you're having problems with...nothing. Essentially, all you guys are doing is complaining about something that may or may not be an issue we, in the community, could help you with.

Based on your posts, I'd have to assume that you have Kevin no information as well, which is probably why he didn't respond to you. In fact, most of the people reporting problems, rarely (if ever) provide useful information. Kevin can't fix a bug, based simply on innocuous, non-informative complaints.

So please, if you're going to post about bugs, do so properly, and provide all the information you can. Otherwise, your post is fairly useless.
[Nova Launcher] gruntparty:
I beg to differ, by stating something is going on others who MAY be experiencing this problem will reply back, and once there are multiple reports of the same issue, THEN its worth time to try to debug out. So its not useless at all. I've been experiencing this problem for the past month and frankly i wouldn't have posted a reply here if i didn't see that another individual was having the same issues as me. Well guess what, somebody else is having similar problems like me, so might as well back him up. Also, someone else in my respective phone's forums also had their icons disappearing too.

Side note, its not right to ignore an email of a customer who paid for a product. I gave benefit of doubt that he may have missed it, so no biggie.

You want info, look in my signature, it says exactly what i'm using on my phone right now. Also no icon pack, just stock Nova Prime. Also its posted in his changelog that he "Fix shortcuts installed from third party apps". Maybe this is the problem. I dunno. Didn't have this issue in the previous stable version. :rolleyes:
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
I understand your point, and I'm not saying that it's wrong to ask if others are having the same problem, but posting no information - many people access the forums via app, so we can't view sig info - doesn't help anyone. It doesn't help you get good responses, and it doesn't give anyone else the ability to troubleshoot with you. I'm more than happy to help (as are many here), but I can't so anything without information. simply posting a problem, or responding to someone else by saying "I have the same problem", is about as useful as me saying that I like rhubarb pie, and someone saying "I agree"... If you'd like some troubleshooting help (since Kevin doesn't post anything except releases here), more info will be needed.

I disagree though with your take on your (and others) "customer" status. App developers are often not corporations - they "sell" a product, and we purchase it, under the "as-is" assumption. No app developer guarantees continued support or updates, so it's a little naive to take the stance of a customer. What we're really doing is donating to a developer, to reward his/her hard work, and the price point of an app is what they feel that hard work is worth. Believing that any of us are customers in the traditional sense is wrong, because it implies that the developers' time belongs to us, and that he/she owes us a certain level of consumer support - which they don't.
[Nova Launcher] Lownita:
After testing I can now safely say that nova launcher in correlation with a live wallpaper makes my phone reboot randomly. If I switch the wallpaper or use stock launcher, reboots are gone. I even set up nova from scratch again and the same happened.
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
You are running Sabermod ROM you said, so is your device nexus 7? For future reference, if you want speedy help, make sure you list all the software and hardware you're running, so people that are trying to help you out know where to start.
[Nova Launcher] Lownita:
Sorry! Yes, I am running saber mod, latest build, on a nexus 4! :)
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
Okay, go to the link below, it may explain the problem you're having right now. It's not that I don't believe what you're saying about nova launcher and live wallpaper not being true. I just think the cause is something else bigger down the line, mainly because your problem is an isolated case. Also Google "Nexus 4 random reboot issue."

Might be, but my phone never rebooted while idle, only when I was using it. And never did while not using the said combination of wallpaper and launcher :)

Why?

I've been following this thread since I first installed Nova.over a year ago back when 1.0 betas were running.

This thread is well over 1000 posts. I would guesstimate, 20% of the posts involve..

- I've seen this on competitor launcher, make this happen, or why don't you have it.

- I didn't read the faq, didn't do a search, or I'm restating an issue that has already been addressed.

Please, do me a favor, please do a search first if you're having an issue.

If you are having an issue, please be as specific as possible when you make a post. This includes what Rom you are using, and if at all possible, what steps you go thru to duplicate this issue.

There a many people on this thread and xda in general that are more than willing to help people with problems they may have.

I don't post much, I use the thanks button when I feel appropriate, and I use the search feature quite often.

Please, use the search function

Please, stop asking asking for "This does this, why doesn't Nova"

There is a location for you to ask for features.

If I'm off base, send me a PM, (always keep the thread on topic)

I've had my share of issues with Nova, I paid for the prime features, but I always try to due my diligence before clogging up the thread. It just seems that in the past month or two the thread has gotten more clogged down with random........

To kevin@TeslaCoil

Here is a bug report: I'm using Rootbox v4.1 JB 4.2.2 ROM on SGS2 with stock Kernel no mods, no icon packs etc, everything is stock vanilla. I am your paid customer from Google play & have been since quite some time. I have never had this issue but facing this issue since your June 19 release. The issue is that app shortcuts disappear from home screens (within folders or outside doesn't matter) on reboot. The apps haven't been moved into sdcard etc, for example Facebook, I have saved a backup & restore works but until next reboot & then its the same story again, app shortcuts disappear randomly & there is no pattern. This behavior doesn't happen on stock launcher. Several other members have also reported the same issue. Please can you investigate this as a bug & issue a fix as soon as you can as its making the phone unusable.

Kind regards
[Nova Launcher] zelendel:
You know everyone I have seen report this issue has one thing in that is the same. They are all using the same rom. Ever think it is a rom issue and not the app. IF it was the app then more people would be seeing this. I think alot of people are forgetting that most apps are made to work on stock roms and the things custom roms do can break the app. Not the apps fault.
[Nova Launcher] rashidkhan:
I have already raised it in Rootbox forum & its not a ROM issue because the stock launcher works perfectly fine in this ROM. It is most definitely a Nova Launcher issue. Is there any reason why you want to deflect this reported bug without even thinking logically? You know things do occasionally go wrong in software & nothing is perfect.
[Nova Launcher] chikimonke:
There may not be anything technically wrong with the ROM or launcher, but rather a bit of code that one has that the other doesn't like. Being that it does seem it's always those that are running Rootbox that seem to have the issue, I would guess there's something there that doesn't agree. Now being that the installed user base is much larger for Nova, and it works without this issue on many other ROMs and devices, it seems to me that it would still be up to the maintainer of the ROM to make sure there's nothing in the ROM code that would be causing this. Just my 2¢
[Nova Launcher] zelendel:
Hmm logically? Ok lets think logically. The app which works on thousands of devices without issue. Causes issues for some users. The common thread of those users is a custom OS setup. Where does logic take you?

Now comparing it to the stock launcher is pointless as the coding is very different between the two and it is even installed in a different directory all together. Most likely even with a hard coded setup to keep it in the memory.

Now I have been troubleshooting program issues for many years as I am sure you can tell. Stop and think for a min. If it is working for thousands of others without this issue then what about the setup of a set of users could be causing this issue?
[Nova Launcher] rashidkhan:
First of all who says that this issue is only happening to Rootbox ROM users? This is your own deduction.

Second of all, you should stop talking on behalf of others & only talk about your own experiences because others can express themselves & they have not made you their spokesperson. If you aren't experiencing an issue doesn't automatically mean no one else is facing this issue or it doesn't exist. This report was for the Author of this software as only he can look into these issues & resolve them & so far your responses hasn't reality helped besides wasting time.

Thirdly, even if we take your analogy that Nova has a problem with Rootbox ROM then it is still Nova launchers responsibility to work around this issue & come up with a fix because Rootbox is working fine as far as its concerned.

The bug does EXIST!:mad:
[Nova Launcher] zelendel:
Ok I have had enough of your attitude against others and the dev of this app. It is not his responsibility to make the app work on a custom rom. As long as it works on stock roms then the rest is up to you.

Now I would advise you check your tone. disrespecting posts are not helping you.
[Nova Launcher] rashidkhan:
I never disrespect anyone, can you show me where have I disrespected anyone at all? I posted a bug report & you started responding for some reason. In any case respect has to be earned and here HELPING others earns their respect, so far I haven't seen you helping.

Again you speak on behalf of others & even the developer. One should not speak on behalf of others unless others appoint this decree!

By the way the developer himself uses custom ROMs as mentioned in an interview and I bought nova prime app to help the developer's business as well as get customer support. I'm not going to entertain any further time wasting responses from you & I'm not expecting any further comments. Thanks & chill.
