Hi, I've just installed latest version, and some of my widgets are missing, like beautifull widgets, tv show favs, colornote. I don't have them in the widget list (home, long press widgets). Tried clearing cache and data, wiped cache and dalvik cache, restored backup. Apps are installed. Any ideas? My phone is Optimus 3D, running ICS

EDIT:

I've figured it out. I restored my apps from TITANIUM Backup but when I uninstalled them and installed from market, widget were there in widget list. :)

Hi,

I have Galaxy S4, 1920x1080 screen.

I like it Nova Launcher.

Easy,Faster launcher.

I have question to you.

Why is Wallpaper streched.

I want to make FIT HD wallpaper,

Can you fix it?

and Can you add icon shadow ?

Thanks in advance.

Are you using 2minit framework? (Judging from your modded status bar). Maybe that's the cause?

I never saw those issues on s4 but I never installed any custom frameworks.

anyway to NOT use the home screen replacement and JUST get the "missed" notifications

I like my home screen the way it is, and really dont want to add the bulk to my phone of having a whole new home screen system. Is there a way to just get the unread/missed notifications on my existing icons? or just to replace my existing icons with something from nova that has the notification count on it? Using nova launcher prime and tesla unread? I have a verizon motorola razr maxx.
[Nova Launcher] Sp1tfire:
I only have folders in my app drawer and they shrink everytime I open certain games becoming smaller and smaller. Guess it must be a bug on S4.

My homescreen redraws permanently when opening an app, using it for a while and than press the home button, aggressive desktop is activated but still the same.

[Nova Launcher] NeoMatrixJR:
It's the triple dot on the home screen that's bugging me. The one on the app drawer isn't a big deal, though it would be nice if that could also be optionally replaced with the play store (like stock). I keep hitting the triple dot on the home screen when I'm trying to open the app drawer. Muscle memory for me dictates the app drawer button should be where this triple dot menu is.

I downloaded and installed 2.2 (after removing 2.2.1 - system install) and I still don't see a place to remove this menu.
[Nova Launcher] cheese458:
does aggressive desktop give a significant performance boost? Does it also drain the battery more? massive fan of this launcher
[Nova Launcher] ylexot:
All aggressive desktop does is try to keep the launcher in memory to prevent having to redraw everything when you exit out of other applications. So, other applications may be removed from memory before the launcher. I guess you could consider that better performance for the launcher, but worse performance for your other applications. It shouldn't do anything to the battery.
[Nova Launcher] cheese458:
thanks for the quick reply. So would apps open up faster with aggressive desktop on? which would you recommend?
[Nova Launcher] killchain:
I can confirm these for 2.2.1 final. Again, isn't there a bug tracker we can use? This thread is becoming a little messy.
[Nova Launcher] mrdoug:
I would think apps would be slower, if at all, with aggressive desktop. From what I gather, Nova stays in memory, actively trumping other apps.

Thus, in my little experience, I prefer not using it. If an app I'm using consumes a lot if memory to run, I want it to get what it needs. I don't want my launcher, which I am not currently using, to take away from said app.

That said, Android seems rather smart with memory and nova is very efficient. I rarely see redraws, either way.

I'm having an issue after the recent 4.2 Update with Sense 5 on my One X. Normal wallpapers don't scroll any more, and they flicker briefly when I unlock my phone. If I turn wallpaper scrolling to "off", the flicker doesn't happen. So it looks like there's some kind of conflict going on there.

I CAN actually reproduce this in 720P mode and landscape orientation (don't know for other modes). For me, the drawer doesn't go black (it's semi-transparent in my setup), but the icons disappear just when the overscroll effect should be shown (if it's called that way).
[Nova Launcher] Rudjgaard:
Hi guys, i have a small problem with widget layout.

I'm running a rom with hybrid engine and when i place widgets i have small top and bottom margins so i can't place them exactly one under the other. The odd thing is that in widgetlocker everything works perfectly, only have probs on nova home. Also in WL i can place uccw 5x2 while nova goes max to 4x...any ideas?

Also i don't know if it's already been reported, but when drawer is in vertical scroll icon labels get all messed up towards the bottom

When are the 4.3 specific commits going to be merged. I have been sticking with trebuchet as its smoother in 4.3 and the widget loading is much much faster. The app opening animations when inside the drawer are choppy on grouper on 4.3 but smooth when using trebuchet which has the 4.3 commits.

[Nova Launcher] :
Hello, I just installed the Tesla Unread Plugin, and while it works for unread Gmail and missed phone calls, it's not picking up my unread sms messages.

I'm running 4.2.2.
[Nova Launcher] NovaSlim:
What phone & SMS app are you using, and have you checked SMS in Tesla Unread settings?

Personally I have stopped using Tesla unread after using it for the last 3 month, the notification bar does everything it does but in a less obstructive way.
[Nova Launcher] :
I'm just using the stock phone and messaging app. The missed phone calls work; it's the SMS that isn't working.

I can see how Tesla Unread might seem superfluous to some, but I kind of like the eye candy.

Stability issues greatly reduced

I don't know if it's because I reinstalled my ROM from scratch or whether it's due to the recent updates but the stability problems I've experienced before have been massively reduced.

Works very well apart from the odd widget problem.

The only problem that I can see is when vertical scrolling in the app drawer is turned on, the infinite scroll setting has no effect.
[Nova Launcher] blackhand1001:
Its because the adreno 320 can brute force through the unsmoothness on 4.3. Same with my 2013 nexus 7. However my galaxy nexus and nexus 7 2012 are noticeably less smooth in nova launcher on 4.3. I don't have this issue with trebuchet on 4.3 as it is based on the 4.3 launcher and not the 4.2 launcher. Even on adreno 320 devices rebasing the launcher will have a tremendous benefit. It no longer will need to take the soc out of lower power mode to render certain animations. On all devices the 4.3 launcher has finally eliminated the lag when Scrolling through the widgets in the app drawer. So that would be a giant benefit to merging the 4.3 commits as well.

Are your home screens redrawing (you get the background and have to wait for the icons/widgets to show up)? If not, then you won't benefit. If you are, then you might.

I got this error with a couple of apps too, when I temporarily switched to SlimBean 4.3. Although not with Nova.

I used RootExplorer and deleted the corresponding folders in data/data. So in your case the Nova Prime folder. After a reboot I was able to install the apps. This might work for you as well, although you probably want to be careful with deleting folders like that.

[Nova Launcher] bogdan1980:
These days i receive a lot of China tablets, no name, like mid001, atm7031, all winner a13-a15, allview speed etc, can't remember all. All 8 inch,900-1ghz cpu(despite rust on box it says 1.2 cpu) 512ddr, mali400. Some of them had an huge lag on app drawer on stock launcher. So i decided to install Nova, bad decision, with Nova lag is worst.

As an conclusion, you need good hardware to run Nova launcher.

Ps, i stopped all animation, greenify 2-3 tablets, root, disable startup apps, uninstall some.

Then grab an china tablet with rk3188 cube xxx name, Nova work awesome, but this one is powerful, 1.8 quad, 2gb, mali 400mp4 533mhz, it's more powerful then my crappy S3.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------

Don't blame the hardware it's not entirely true. Nova runs on Nexus S, Xperia U, Xperia S, HTC One V my Galaxy Nexus all smoothly. Chinese tabs and phone suck because 90% of them doesn't have 2d gpu acceleration in driver level. They just compile from the main source, if it booting then the product is good to go.

My friend's Advan Vandroid T5 (China made) tablet does has dual core snapdragon 1.2ghz and Adreno GPU runs 4.0.3 It SUCKS A LOT, stock launcher lags, nova lags, my past ics nexus s performed a wayyy better.

Definitely most of them don't have any software optimizations. So be careful if you're gonna buy an Chine branded phone/tablet.
[Nova Launcher] jcsy:
Yes, optimizations are key in hardware + software

Look at all the lousier generation of hardware running on iOS devices, but seemingly more "butter" effect than most android devices can do today

Dual core smoother than quad core? Its about optimizations

China brand tablets don't do it

Not on the ROM

Not on the kernel

Not on the drivers

I would think twice about one, except a xiaomi maybe or a pantech vega , but those aren't really "China"

I'm using 2.2.1 without aggressive option and I get very very very little redraws compared to other launchers

IMO, this is better than apex/trebuchet which tends to redraw a lot on the same device / ROM

The launcher is the one working its wonders here

BUG: Time wont update when notification bar on hide

Hi (not sure this is the correct place to post bugs. Apologies if wrong)

I re themed my phone yesterday (nothing fancy, i just changed some icons and activated some features from nova )

I thing i wanted was to have the notification bar gone, so i un ticked

'Show notification bar '

.

I have noticed is that i am still able to drag the notification bar down if i swipe from the top edge of screen even though it is hidden. (which i am fine with)

Problem i have is - after a few minutes the time that is shown in the notification area (top left) is completely off to all the other times on the phone.

When i tap on the time it takes me to the clock app like it should. The clock app shows the correct time, yet the drop down does not.

I have to keep going into

Date & Time

settings and toggle

'Automatic time and date'

for it to update.

Either that or i reset my phone but after a few mins (usually 10) the time starts to lag in the notification once again.

This time problem only happens when i have the

'Show notification bar '

un checked in nova Prime.

I have a Image of what i mean on media fire but i cant yet post links because im new.

If anyone needs the image i can pm you it or if you know of another way i can sneak post it let me know.

Im not sure if the attachment feature will work but please check if it does

Happens when you change the margins setting. I think only the system default and the wide margins cause this problem. The narrow margins still seem fine.

[edit]I appreciate the quick feedback after putting out a beta. I know it can be frustrating to update and find a new bug but as I'm making lots of changes and still getting familiar with ICS and the Launcher codebase it's really valuable to be able to work quickly and crowd-source the testing. Bug reports have mostly been pretty polite and understanding too which is great as it makes them much easier to read. Thanks for beta testing everyone :). Once this hits the Market there will still be beta updates as an option so I still have the freedom to break things sometimes (And you can get new features earlier).[/edit]
