Do you get the same behaviour whether you use the 'back' or 'home' buttons to exit the app? There's a Nova setting to 'always return to default screen' if you use the home key. This should not affect the back key.
[Nova Launcher] ew:
Thanks for the reply. I don't have it set to always return to the home screen, but the back key does land me on the home screen. I also see a flicker sometimes. I asked the same question on the CyanogenMod thread and somebody reported the same issue with Apex. Like I thought it seems to be related to CyanogenMod...

Motorola Circles Widget

Hi,

Would it be possible to support Motorola Circles widget in this launcher. Currently it works only with Moto Blur launcher. But I love to use Nova. So can something be done for this?
[Nova Launcher] ylexot:
...and the 1-month countdown clock before people start complaining about Nova not being supported resets again. :D
[Nova Launcher] qu3becker:
Can't do that. Those widgets are embedded in the Motoblur (TouchWiz, Sense, LG Optimus UI...) launcher.

Some people said that importing the layout from the stock non-aosp launchers could work but in my experience it doesn't work.

Otherwise you could try this as a alternative: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.vineetsirohi.customwidget&hl=en & https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=motoblurclock.uccwskin.dsaif&hl=en

[Nova Launcher] tjw344:
totally agreed; should I have polished it more for you. I'm not criticizing (Fix scroll of app rate vs background rate), I am trying to offer genuine areas of improvement. not some extra perk that doesnt make it perfect. (forget I said anything)

Feedback for the developer is great, it's the way it came across is all I think. Like why would you criticize an early beta for not being polished?

re: widgets in the dock:

Awesome! When I add my Smart Shortcuts as a widget, they won't go to the dock - but if I go to 'shortcuts' and pull a Smart Shortcut from there, I can move it to the dock! That should have been a goddamn no-brainer... gnngh... but thank you!

At least 2 personally purchased licenses, 4 coworkers who'll buy it on my say-so, and at least dozens of purchases from my blogs' readers when I do a write-up on your launcher, once it's out of beta. Great work, sir!

I've been experiencing a weird issue with the home button. When pressed it takes me to my homescreen. When double pressed it takes me to my far left screen but there are no icons or widgets. I can scroll between my 5 screens and all of them are blank until I press the home button again which takes me back to my normal homescreen. Strange. Anyone else experiencing this issue or a similar one? Toying with the home button functionality setting didn't help unfortunately.

Still lovin the hell outta Nova!
[Nova Launcher] jradish:
Hello, let me first say I love the launcher, its so buttery smooth. I'm having a problem though, let me first tell you how I installed this.

First I installed just using the APK, and not putting it in my /system. Then I saw that I needed to install the .zip for it to be a system app. I installed the zip in CWM. When I rebooted back up, I had two different nova launcher's running. I force closed the system one I believe ( I still had no widget previews) and everything was working fine.

I''ve been running gummynex for a while now, and I just decided to flash franco's kernel. After I flashed franco's kernel, I'm getting nova launcher force closes constantly and I can't do anything other than pull the status bar down and go into camera. I just installed the novauninstall.zip in cwm and that didn't do anything. I tried going into camera and then pressing home to hopefully have the option of going into the stock launcher, but it does not give me the option. I didn't do a backup before I flashed so now I'm reaching out for any help so I don't have to revert to a old old backup.

Thanks

Try going to the app folder inside system with root explorer or something similar and erase nova launcher

Then reboot and install again

[Nova Launcher] jradish:
How would I get into root explorer on my phone? Is there anyway I can browse the system using my computer.

I can actually get into ES zip viewer because I still had franco's kernel in my status bar, but it will not let me do anything besides view the zip, going up or back just closes the program! The recent app's actually works too, because I can keep going back into ES zip viewer.
[Nova Launcher] Coderedpl:
Seems like youre missing stock launcher itself. Try to reflash gummy without wiping
[Nova Launcher] zombieflanders:
Name-calling isn't necessary, folks. Respectfully disagree and point out why. Being a beta doesn't make it immune to that. Since the dev seems open to constructive criticism (why else would he create a thread), I consider this an open beta, and therefore suggestions should be allowed, or even encouraged.

Lets try to keep atleast one thread in the Nexus section civilized alright?

Does anyone have Beta5 zip? this seems to be the most stable build for me.

[Nova Launcher] jradish:
This worked. Thanks for the help. I was able to install uninstallnova.zip and then uninstalled nova launcher apk afterwards. I moved the apk to /system and then installed it again, and I still don't see the widget previews. I'm not sure what im doing wrong to make it a system app
[Nova Launcher] fclifton:
I just installed this launcher today. Very nice. I was looking for something that allowed a landscape home screen.

I use Widgetsoid to create a widget that is basically an app launcher that stays in the notification screen. I would like to add the voice search icon to it, but I can't find the nice voice search icon/app that is in Nova. Is it possible that it can be added to my Widgetsoid widget?

Thanks!

I have a estar mid 7114 tablet. it´s a 7 inch tablet and i don´t know how to enable de tablet ui mod with nova prime. Can you help me?
[Nova Launcher] !crazy:
I think you cannot do that with Nova. Your ROM has to support the option. For some things it is enough to change DPI..
[Nova Launcher] enigma1981:
I see what you mean shrome... to prevent the widgets moving around when you show/hide the bar, yes?

For SGS3 users the setting it like that is pretty straight forward... hide the status bar and then disable the gesture to show it... we can pull down the status bar from the top of a full screen app anyway...

Would be handy for other devices that don't have that feature :)

Hi. Is there any way to swipe from left to right on the Apps menu in order to access apps starting at the end of the alphabet quickly?

[Nova Launcher] manekineko:
Just dropping a quick bug report:

Bug Description:

When your desktop is locked, when you long-press an app in the app drawer, nothing happens at all.

Expected result:

Best result should be that it should bring up the regular interface, only without the option to drop onto the desktop, but still letting you uninstall it, or access the grouping menu.

Simpler approach that would still be correct is at least it should bring up the regular desktop is locked dialog, giving you the opportunity to unlock it so you can long-press.
[Nova Launcher] rayblo:
tried this one before not my favorite
[Nova Launcher] mattdm:
You could do that with Tasker. Just make a screen off task, and then in Nova settings, go to Gestures and Buttons --> [whichever gesture you want] --> Shortcuts --> Task Shortcut --> [the screen off task you created]

It still vibrates here.

You're right, just tested now.

But when I saw manekineko's post yesterday, I tried too and it did nothing.

Might be a ROM issue :silly:
[Nova Launcher] :
I just installed the latest version v2.0.2b2 (bought prime version long time ago).

This launcher is absolutely the best out there! But there is one small bug noticed, ie. some widgets got resized to weird size across reboot, eg. aCalendar 4x4 widget (then manually resized to 4x5 in Nova), and PhotoGrid 4x4 widget (also manually resized to fill the screen with 4x5 in Nova). Both of the widgets somehow got resized to thinner or with bigger black borders after every reboot, resulting I've to re-add the widgets to make it perfect again.

I'm on Galaxy Note 2 (4.1.2) and with almost default setting with Nova Launcher (homescreen 4x5).

Can you please help to look into this issue? Many thanks for great support :)

Has anyone taken a look at 91 Launcher? The launcher itself is crap, laggy and rudamentary compared to Nova, but...it's "cube in" and "cube out" transition effects are awesome! They're not really cube effects. Rather, the "cube in" effect is a near-perfect rendition of the Touchwiz "glass panel" effect, and the "cube out" effect is the exactly the Sense "carousel" effect. I would pay a lot of money to see these effects implemented in Nova. :fingers-crossed:
