For everyone that wants proper unread counts in TeslaUnread for WhatsApp, be sure to email WhatsApp and get them to sort it out. The issue is on their side and unless you're vocal, they won't fix it.

Would love gestures
[Nova Launcher] psohn:
Great work so far. It definitely works better than go launcher with ICS.

The only bugs I have encountered so far are disappearing widgets on 6th panel, the Google search bar sometimes comes back underneath other widgets (I deleted it from the main page), and previous app draw pages blank after adding from home screen with long press and the draw was already on a later page.

Three features I'd like to see are already planned (margins, infinite scroll, and gestures) and the rest are:

- Home key press with second option (home then preview, etc)

- Vertical scroll in app draw (swipe left/right will move you to next category)

- New app draw categories (games, frequently used, etc)

The above listed/ranked according to my preference/priority. :)
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
^^^ The missing widgets seems to be a known issue, when using more than 5 screens...a few people have mentioned it, so I'm sure it's being worked on. As for the Search widget; try dragging it all the way to the last screen on the right, drop it, then long-press it, and choose "remove" I had that issue with Beta 2 or 3, and that's how I fixed it (some others had success with that work-around too). :)

[Nova Launcher] Skilover:
Problem: Running Axiom 2.2 on Galaxy Nexus - it would appear that the Email widget simply kills Nova--I have no idea why. Basically what happens is after a while the fonts get messed up, and the page with the Email widget on it gets wiped clean--and the one next to it generally loses one or two widgets as well. I am using all 7 possible pages--I haven't tried this with say, 5 pages, and email. However, I've tried 7 pages and other widgets on page 7 with no problems at all. I am not running that many widgets considering the pages--many of them take up almost the whole screen--calendars, todo lists, etc.

EDIT: hadn't realized it's a known issue with widgets on pages 6 & 7--however, it definitely works to some extent--maybe not with big widgets like email.

My other request is a better system to add icons to tray -- lots of the third party products (eg. GO) allow you to long press the empty spaces and shows a list of all apps etc. Right now you have to find a blank spot on a page, then drag the icon from there to the tray.

I'm using folders on my Nova Launcher Homescreen. Everytime I restart my Galaxy Nexus the Icons inside the Folders are reordered. Don't know why? I'm changing them back and after a restart the icons are reordered again :(

Still you should use Wallpaper Wizardii to set a wallpaper, default Android system for setting a wallpaper is crap.

If your wallpaper is the same resolution as your phone, there shouldn't be any problems. I'm using a Galaxy Nexus and my wallpapers are 1440x1280. There is no zooming at all.
[Nova Launcher] bmtdan:
It's a touchwiz bug
[Nova Launcher] sabret00the:
That explains it. I have no zooming whenever I use Sense to set the wallpaper or when my Tasker script changes my wallpaper randomly on the hour. It's generally a case of being as large as possible at the smallest length.

[Nova Launcher] jujuburi:
My phone's resolution is 720x1280. And that is not Galaxy Nexus's resolution, it's those scrollable walls that makes it 1440.

And no its NOT a Touch Wiz bug. If it were then I'd not be able to set my walls properly with other launchers.
[Nova Launcher] carlos67:
This launcher is due an update. There are lots of feature requests in user forum with high number of votes. There are lots of stuff that could/should be added to really polish this launcher up a bit.

I have voted for infinite app drawer scrolling. It's just plain silly that this isn't already included like with Apex & touchwiz. It's not as if this feature would slow the launcher down in any way.

Rant over :p

noobie here with android.

basically, I'm on a galaxy nexus running JB 4.1.2 and i've downloaded Nova launcher prime.

If you could PM with instructions, that would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance!
[Nova Launcher] xda6969:
So for your phone, you will create wallpapers that are 1280x720. You need to include the area behind the homes screens to the left and right of your main home screen...even if you don't scroll because that is the way Android works. I agree, it is not a Touch Wiz bug. The reason other launchers behave differently is because they may have an special wallpaper option. Nova uses the Android default which works perfectly providing you create wallpapers that are the same resolution as your phone. Just make sure when you create them, you have your object of focus in the center.

Does anybody know how to set a single screen non-scrollable wallpaper? I have a GS3(1280x720) and I have a 1280x720 wallpaper, but I can only crop it in a weird format, so I can't use the whole wallpaper. I know apex launcher has this option, but I can't find it in nova launcher. BTW I have prime, and I still can't find the feature.
[Nova Launcher] JCJ77:
Hopefully this answers your question (if I understand what you are asking)

1. I also use Nova and I know the "weird format" your talking about. Go to nova settings>desktop and scroll down until you see "scroll". Under wallpaper scrolling, if you choose "off", the wallpaper no longer scrolls - but you can still have multiple screens for apps, widgets, etc.

2. If you download "quickpic" from the play store, the crop option isn't the same weird format as in nova. The crop option is actually a full square so you can manipulate the wallpaper/pic you want to use.

I don't know if this helps for what you were asking. If so, cool. :fingers-crossed: If not, sorry bout that. :D

[Nova Launcher] Testraindrop:
Thats a rom feature, there is a setting for that eg in CM10.
[Nova Launcher] manekineko:
Is it a bug that when the home screen is locked, that the app drawer is also locked?

It's a bit annoying because I can't uninstall apps or bring up their app info when the app drawer is locked.

Furthermore, when you try and change the home screens when it's locked, it gives the option to unlock by holding, but the app drawer doesn't.
[Nova Launcher] Ennox:
Makes sense, since it came with that 4.0.4. update on my phone. Since there's no custom-rom or toor available, I wonder what to do...

Since MagicLocker has an option to disable home-button-unlock that actually works I hoped it could be done with Nova to spare me another app. Oh well...
[Nova Launcher] tbessie:
I would hope that the few bugs and tweaky bits in Nova would be fixed before a major upgrade and/or adding of features; eg. Nova forgetting the last drawer selected from time to time as I've mentioned.

I've emailed Kevin about this one, but no word back.

I set up nova launcher prime on my nexus 7.

Problem: after closing an app with 'back' button I often end up on stock launcher. Is there a way to avoid this?
[Nova Launcher] tbessie:
Does the Nexus 7 ask you to choose a launcher when it starts up?

If yes, and you select NovaLauncher, you should select the "Always do this" (or whatever it says) option.

That's what I had to do on my Galaxy Nexus phone anyway.

Yes, I already did this. Selected nova and 'always'. Did not solve it. Strange thing.

Try clearing defaults from the stock launcher, if that fails, freeze it with titanium backup (assuming you're rooted)

[Nova Launcher] JCJ77:
Yes there is...it sounds like your looking for the app drawer to be transparent. Go into nova settings>drawer. Under "background transparency", slide the line completely to the right. Exit out of settings and go back into your apps - you should see your wallpaper behind the apps. Let me know if this is what you were looking for.

Nova Launcher vs. Nova Launcher Prime

i'm a bit confused about Nova Launcher and the different versions. I have NovaLauncher prime v1.1.4 but when i check for updates it tells me i can update to 1.3.2 but when i install 1.3.2 it's the regular version, I assume it is because v1.3.2 has less features than 1.1.4. reading the OP it shows that v1.1.4 was at a beta stage and clearly that 1.3.2 is the most recent version.

on google play the regular version is at 1.3.2 but for the prime version it's at v1.1 but i have v.1.4. can someone please verify?
[Nova Launcher] Fr33L4nc3r:
Nova Prime is just a licence key, not the main program and does not get updated very often contrary to Nova Launcher.

I see what you mean. The behaviour of the stock launcher is similar to what you are describing. AFAIK, there is no way to use the entire wallpaper to fit in one screen in Nova. I haven't used Apex so I am not really sure if it does that. I am gonna take your word on it.

Actually not. If you switch to the HTC Sense 4-launcher (Rosie), it has transparency in the notification bar.

That's because it's controlled by the ROM. In this case Sense which reserves the rights to transparency and other such effects for itself. The code for transparency is within the Sense framework which Nova has no access to.
