Re: [APP 4.0+] Nova Launcher - 2.0.1beta4 Feb 13 2013

I am having one issue with the remove clock labs option:

When I select the option to remove clock from desktop but not drawer, it works perfectly, but when I select the option to only remove the clock only when on the default homescreen of the desktop, it will not work and the clock remains at all times.

Running rooted deodexed stock Note 2

---------- Post added at 05:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------

It's in labs: go to nova settings and hold down volume button and labs options should appear in menu list. You must also be rooted to use the remove clock option.

You lose HTC sense widgets when you don't use the sense/rosie launcher, as they rely on the sense framework. You'll have to find replacement widgets - APW for calendar/sms/bookmarks/etc and HDwidgets or uccw for weather/clocks work great.
[Nova Launcher] !crazy:
Re: [APP 4.0+] Nova Launcher - 2.0.1beta4 Feb 13 2013

That are proprietary features of HTC Sense GUI.

You could try HD Widgets (nice HD clocks and weather, no animations.) and beautiful Widgets (IMO not so nice clocks but it has animated wallpaper which works similar to how sense weather widget works. Like you'll see fog or rain if that's the actual time.).

6 x 6 desktop grid, all margins set to 'none'. Using Chronus (or cLock by now) and Minimalistic Text (just for the background) that should go from edge to edge.

I don't know if it's clearly seen on the screenshots, but the only way I found to get rid of this gap is to have dock enabled and no status bar - in all other cases, the gap is there.

Re: [APP 4.0+] Nova Launcher - 2.0.1beta4 Feb 13 2013

I was having this exact same problem. I contacted their support and was told that battery saver, task killer or permission management apps are usually to blame.

It turned out an app I have called Android Assistant was terminating the HD Widget process, even though I had disabled any task killing function. Apparently it kills processes that stay in memory for a long time (invariably HDW would stop updating late in the day). I had to tell AA to ignore HDW. Since doing that, I haven't had any problems with updating. It also solved a similar issue I was having with a sports score widget.

only thing that is missing that I would love is being able to remove the margins and the ability to swipe up on the dock icons to toggle the notification bar like I do with launcher pro now.

I've updated the known issues list in the second post.

That would be great. kevin@teslacoilsw.com Also Android's official guidelines are here: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design.html

I don't mind unmodified distribution however please do not modify the APK. Doing so will prevent updates from being installed and users will contact me (or you) about it. If you're changing the config in /data/data that's fine, but please don't modify/resign the APK itself.

Not confirmed. Widgets are updated by the widget provider (Beautiful Widgets, Fancy Widgets, etc). Nova just displays them. I have no reason to believe Nova is ignoring widget updates.

This is mentioned in the known issues list.

Thanks a lot. Won't be touching the apk now that I found the config file!

[Nova Launcher] cheez99:
Can I make a suggestion? I'd like to see the tablet screen transition animation as an option. It should be built right in somewhere on ICS, I would think. For instance, if you do the 160 dpi hack and give it the tablet UI, you can see the transition animation. It isn't quite scaled right, but it's basically the same thing that Honeycomb had.
[Nova Launcher] Nordpolcamper:
Great work on this Launcher^^

It works perfect and I dont have any complaints so far, but I do have a suggestion.

In my opinion this launcher and well....all the other launchers out there lack some nice animations. We do have the power in our phones, why not make it a little more beautiful^^

I would like more options for homescreen transition. There were many suggest and i would give all of them a +1.

Furthermore it would be nice, if you could choose an effect how apps are opened. I think something like that is possible in ADWLauncher Ex.

Great work^^

Re: [APP 4.0+] Nova Launcher - 2.0.1beta4 Feb 13 2013

Cool. Hopefully that works. I've had Android Assistant installed forever and it played nice with HDW until just a couple off weeks ago (perhaps a recent update in one or the other changed things).

What I don't understand is HDW runs both a process and a service. Only the process got killed. I would think the service would be the one responsible for updating.

Also, has anyone noticed that if you increase the size of the homescreen grid and then add or tap and hold on icons on the bottom row the icons will disappear? This tends to happen alot in the last few updates, only way to fix it is to change the grid size and then change it back but then it happens again if I try to do the same thing later. Kind of hard to explain, hope it makes sense

Because there is a considerable delay between opening Google Search & SwiftKey popping up during which time I can manually scroll through my app drawer for the app I want. Idk if the lag is just for my phone or not so that is why I use Conjure & not Google. Also I didn't insists that such a feature be added.

Did you set your transparency to full or just 50%? If you didn't

Try settings your status bar transparency to like 50%

Edit. noticed that your app drawer is still 50 percent. So the issue is on my side.

Please don't add more useless stuff and effects. This is more then enough. If you try to satisfy everyone, with time this great launcher will become bloated sh* like some others. Better concentrate on performance, security, code clean up for easier maintenance.

People are ****ed up, with same wishes which go in this direction 'Oh please, please, I like my background to become red when I fart, and then it should call my girlfriend. Could you please add this? And it would be nice if one could position panel so that it goes from bottom left to top right corner, launcher xžnj has this. And yes, when I launch browser I want app drawer to show up temporary and dissapers with jinny from bottle effect or whatever.'

Guys and girls, there are already super bloated launchers there, why not use one of them? Maybe you do not understand that, but the code gets bigger and bigger with the time, and useless features, and it is harder and harder to debug and to maintain. Nova will become slow shiny **** it this continues.
