If you have anything to apologize for, it's for thinking Jellybean came out before Eclair... WidgetLocker is at least as old as Eclair, because that's when I started using it.. In 2010... When Jellybean came out on 2012 it came with a feature that had been in WidgetLocker for at least two years.

The best parts of Android cone from OEM forks and third party apps. We can thank HTC for the quick toggles, for example. The idea with a two-pane notification shade with quick toggles on the right was not originally in stock Android. Sense had it before. Multi user, now in stock Lollipop, was in Titanium Backup (and done better).

Best Launcher

To be true this is the best launcher i have used till date.. It is very fast and light launcher... :)
[Nova Launcher] guitardoc64:
I'm very happy with Nova. I didn't really start to use it until I got the Nexus 6 and found out quick that I didn't like Google Now. Shortly after, I bought Nova Prime. It just works.
[Nova Launcher] nageshv24:
For some odd reason after upgrading my S4 to lollipop, gestures like swipe down for pull down notifications and double tap for Expanded notifications is not working.

I think this is Crapwiz issue but still hoping for a fix from Nova developers.
[Nova Launcher] xproz:
can you add some different folder animation?
[Nova Launcher] jineshpatel30:
indeed !

i almost got frustrated bcz when this feature ( even though having too many requests ) didn't get priority for years :p

anyways now final waiting for some more days ;)
[Nova Launcher] :
How do you fix this? I reinstalled G Now today and then uninstalled it again and that crap appears. It didn't appear before.

Thank you.
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
What was I thinking? I've forgotten the evolution order of Android device. It's interesting to know what you said about the WL though. The style of widget locker hasn't change since I first purchased it, which make me assume that it's based on ics or jb aosp screen locker.
[Nova Launcher] 1234himanshu:
Best launcher ever with lollipop icons :D
[Nova Launcher] seanspotatobusiness:
I have a couple of questions about folders in Nova:

1. Is it possible to have folders within folders? and

2 Is it possible to have apps in the app drawer in more than one folder (sometimes apps fit into more than one category simultaneously)?
[Nova Launcher] DirkStorck:
[MENTION=2587550]kevin@TeslaCoil[/MENTION] I think swipe gestures are one of the outstanding features of this fantastic launcher! "gestures like swipe down for pull down notifications" are one of my most favorite. Could that be fixed to work with Lollipo again?

Thank you!
[Nova Launcher] :
1 no, 2 no

He probably doesn't read the thread, but he knows it, and he will solve it as always. The question is when..
[Nova Launcher] wickedninjalo:
All gestures work for me. I'm running BlissPop on my OnePlus One
[Nova Launcher] geovass:
That's because you are not running Lollipop.

Sent from my Galaxy Note Edge
[Nova Launcher] ALFA SOFT:
amazing app Thanks .
[Nova Launcher] calexchelse:
On the second issue, you can have an app in one folder, and keep it in the original folder, but not 2 created folders. If that helps
[Nova Launcher] vanisleguy1976:
Then explain this:

---------- Post added at 01:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

The correct answer is actually yes, and yes. You can have folders within folders, and you can have apps in multiple folders.

Hey VanisleGuy, thanks a lot! Can you tell me whether it's possible to have the same shortcut in two different folders in the main app drawer? I know you've shown it on the home screen but I was hoping to achieve this in the app drawer.
[Nova Launcher] vanisleguy1976:
Yep! Here you go:

Swipe down to Expand Notifications & Double Tap to Expand quick settings works flawlessly for me on 5.0.2 Lolipop(SlimLP)/Nova Prime 3.3

p.s [MENTION=228991]geovass[/MENTION] , Bliss

Pop

is a lolipop based custom Rom. In case you couldn't figure that out by the existance of "Pop" in the Rom name, the first search result on xda clearly shows a lolipop in their Rom emblem http://xdaforums.com/sitesearch.php?q=BlissPop one plus one
[Nova Launcher] scottjb:
It probably is specific to Samsung. I am running CM12, 5.0.2, and the gestures work fine.
[Nova Launcher] nageshv24:
The issue is only with Lollipop touchwiz ROM I guess. The gestures were working fine when I had CM12 on my S4.

Hope somehow this gets fixed soon as I use only Nova launcher and for me gestures is what I like most, especially for one handed use.
[Nova Launcher] topcaser:
I asked Kevin via email regarding this issue. He told me that he is aware of this bug but he did not get Lollipop on his Samsung device. He will fix that as soon as he gets it.

[Nova Launcher] wickedninjalo:
Last time I checked 5.0.2 was lollipop, and so is blisspop.

On another note. Ignorance isn't Bliss, is just makes you look foolish and lazy. That's why I use that magic search thing that's usually shaped like a magnifying glass.... I swear it must be voodoo powered that's why people are afraid of it.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Guys, let's stop this pissing contest. Gestures work fine on Lollipop... They just don't seem to be working on Samsung devices. It's really not a Nova issue though - it's clearly a Samsung problem/planned feature. Kevin is aware of the issue, and he'll fix it. There's no point in arguing, and there's no point in continuing to report it as a bug, because it's not one. Since we can't force Samsung to correct their (obviously planned) handling of third party launchers, we just have to wait until Kevin corrects the problem for them. He's just one person though, trying to undo the work of dozens of coders, so it may take some time. Be patient or find another launcher to use in the meantime.
[Nova Launcher] nixie2121:
quick question. I just did a full wipe of my device and reinstalled Nova prime. I had a pinch out gesture to toggle ring/vibrate. I can no longer find this option. Does anyone know how to set this up?

thanks
[Nova Launcher] bombadier:
Send some error reports but I just had a fc fest with nova today out the blue had to wipe the cache a few times and install/reinstall a few times to get it working again lost my backups as well, all in all a rather bizarre turn of events, hope the logs can explain what happened
[Nova Launcher] Telyx:
Best I can do is bring up the sound settings panel... I can't find a way to just toggle ring/vibrate.
[Nova Launcher] nixie2121:
Wow...must have been something in my old rom (pure shamu) that chroma does not have!!!
[Nova Launcher] funnydevs:
Is possibile to reduce space between icons on app drawer???
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
No, not really. You could change the icon size or the grid layout, but there aren't any padding options for the drawer.
[Nova Launcher] dragontology:
It's much older. I was using it on Eclair. He's added themes since then, but when I started using it, the Android lock screen in stock Android was two round sliders, one for unlock and the other to toggle silent. And the time and date above. Back then, the Android status bar was white!
[Nova Launcher] funnydevs:
mmm,ok. Any ideas for the future to implement this feature???
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
I'm really not sure. Kevin develops Nova... I'm just a user like everyone else. There have been a lot of calls for drawer sorting, and I believe Kevin's working on it, and maybe he'll also add some additional features, like the one you're looking for.
[Nova Launcher] Protonus:
Is anyone else, unable to get to the feedback page, located here:

? It fails to resolve for me from multiple PC's. Looks like a DNS issue, I can't ping or tracert it at all.

Works fine for me.
[Nova Launcher] funnydevs:

[Nova Launcher] androidnandroid:
Touchwiz lollipop room problem

Agreed the problem with only touchwiz rom lollipop... None of the launcher supporting this gesture.. Hope someone fix it
[Nova Launcher] NovaSlim:
There haven't been Nova updates for a while, so I decided to try Action Launcher 3 which the android press is hyping like no tomorrow to see if it is any better.

Turns out to be a waste of time(glad I didn't spend any money on it), for any "amazing feature" AL3 have, Nova have an equal or superior feature aside from the gimmicky swipe app for pop up widget/quick list(found app search to be better)/quick theme(just make your folder background transparent seem better to me). I am now happily back on Nova Prime :D
[Nova Launcher] vanisleguy1976:
If you had switched from Nova you'd have needed to find a new username [emoji13]
[Nova Launcher] catman51:
Looks like Nova will be getting a lot of new customers, if you've been following the Apex thread. He just shot himself in the foot!
[Nova Launcher] adl:
Holy crap, bloatware / adds even in the pro version? Why on earth would anybody do that?? :confused:
[Nova Launcher] catman51:
Dumb move.
[Nova Launcher] Frank Westlake:
How do we know when this application has been updated, is it announced here?

Frank
[Nova Launcher] khaytsus:
The Play store?
[Nova Launcher] irish_711:
Like the other user said, or in settings scroll down to Nova Launcher Prime [app version] --Check for updates...-- and tap it.

And before it gets too far, let's keep Apex drama in the Apex thread.
[Nova Launcher] Frank Westlake:
I don't have access to the play store because of the license agreement, which means I can't purchase Nova.

Frank
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Can you access the Play Store via the Web, or no? If so, you can download the free version that way, and then see if Nova Settings has a purchase option in-app. I'll actually push this up to Kevin for you, too see if he can include a purchase feature, if it's not there already.
[Nova Launcher] machhho:
Nova launcher is the best launcher I have ever used but it is missing a very important feature which is a Tablet UI mode option
[Nova Launcher] priyam basak:
The app will notify you.

You can get updates from playstore as well as beta update if you have opted for it.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
Sorry for my English. I installed Nova Launcher Prime on Oneplus One (Android 4.4.4) together with the stock launcher (Trebuchet) and Aviate. My problem is that Nova Launcher Prime doesn't remain the default launcher. For example, everytime I close all applications, I get the window with the choice between Trebuchet, Nova Launcher and Aviate, even if Nova Launcher has been selected as default launcher. What can I do?
[Nova Launcher] Primokorn:
Settings > Home: Is Nova checked?
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
It was checked, but everytime I use another launcher, also for one session only, this setting is deleted and, when I want to come back to Nova, I'm asked to choose the launcher again.
[Nova Launcher] Mervingio:
Not sure if that ask and answer many times sorry for not read the whole thread but scince back to Nova on N6 is constantly FC on stock start with minutes but custom is instant any ideas?

clear dalvik and cache too any other launcher work but not Nova.
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
Nova launcher dev has an app call "homesmack" in the play store you call download for free. The app's purpose is to establish the default app. Check it out and see if that helps. If that doesn't work for you, the last line of solution is to freeze the other launchers.
[Nova Launcher] paradoxiumwind:
I changed the app drawer to "show pages as cards", but I have this grey area on the drawer that I can't seem to change to white to match the rest - there's no option I can see for that colour.

https://i.imgur.com/7ZdOCVU.png

is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks
[Nova Launcher] khaytsus:
Sure; don't use task killers. Android interprets the homescreen (perhaps any default intent) as crashing and it'll clear the default.
[Nova Launcher] texmex7265:
i love this launcher, thanks a lot for it. the bottom icon dock seems a lot smaller than the stock launcher dock. is there anyways you could add an option to make the dock a little bigger to the same size as the stock launcher?
[Nova Launcher] swivlehendie:
In beta 10 (and maybe 9, i never installed it) the icons have a lot of space betweem them. Its like when you edit the margin for the desktop, the dock just stays all spread out. I hope i'm making sense
[Nova Launcher] inzaghi75:
With the latest Beta10 Launcher my batt drain is too high in sleep mode (40mA). With ADW Launcher I have no problems.
[Nova Launcher] tjw344:
I wanted to post again to see if I am the only one that this bothers. I wish the scroll rate of the screen was that same as the rate at which I move my fingers across the screen. Currently the screen moves slightly faster than my finger does. I think it would be better if it was the same rate.
[Nova Launcher] Nitemare_real:
Hello, I'm using beta10.

I've read that beta8 solved a issue named "Fix no text in landscape"... I assume this text is icon text.

But I have this problem with beta10, when landscape mode, I can't see icon text.
[Nova Launcher] just4747:
Also, I am still often getting the no-widget-update issue where the widgets don't respond to any visual change until you clear cache on Nova and Force Stop it. Been happening to me since the first few releases and have now gone though many wipes and ROMs since, with the issue sticking around (so I know it's not my setup).

Just now, I clicked volume up a few times while watching my AudioManager Pro widget. The sliders for the phone and alert volumes went u the first two notches, then stopped visually responding right after. The volume still rises with the rocker buttons, but the widget stops showing the sliders moving. I have to go stop Nova each time this happens as it affects all widgets.

I just don't understand how not many more people are experiencing this so often like me, just a few.
[Nova Launcher] nklenchik:
Idk if I'm the only one having this problem, but the launcher never stays in memory. Every time I hit home after going to another app, it has to reset itself.
[Nova Launcher] Neejay:
Nope, same here. What phone are you on?
[Nova Launcher] daman215:
I think he means like this, the first picture is stock and the second is nova.On stock the icons are compact together more and nova there stretch also the divider is a little higher
[Nova Launcher] Skunk Ape1:
To each his own... I have short stubby fingers and find the spread out docks see more accurate for me. With the stock launcher my fat fingers would commonly hit two buttons. Thus happens much less often now.

I also like to not add a bunch more features or settings options as this will likely make the launcher resource dependent. Also the more things you shove into this, the more likelihood of issues.

Let's just let the Dev work on the bugs for now and worry about the cosmetics later. Then add features after everything it's fixed. It's probably more difficult to fix things when you are constantly adding features.
[Nova Launcher] mfish123:
Im loving this launcher....fast and silly smooth.

Are there any plans or is it even possible to do vertical transitions in the app drawer? If so, I'd like to suggest considering adding the vertical "waterfall" transition like the one in go launcher ex. Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] stu5797:
I agree about the vertical "waterfall" transition to the app drawer. I am not a fan of scrolling to the right to see all my apps on differ pages. This is the only thing I need for it to be my absolute favorite launcher. What a great job by this developer!
[Nova Launcher] asd87:
NOT HAPPY

I had to do a data wipe to get this thing to stop FC looping...did not like...I couldn't do anything! but now it works fine after the wipe...now I have to go and download and set up everything again.
[Nova Launcher] mhwarfield:
Funny you should mention this. I've been experiencing the exact same problem and been meaning to post about it but just hadn't worked up the screenshots. I have now...

For reference... Width Margin is set to "Disabled" and the Desktop Grid is set to 4x4 and it is set to display labels under the icons.

First image is from Trebuchet (stock looks identical) and second image is NovaLauncher beta 10. Looks like a spacing an margin problem to me. Trebuchet is spread further apart and nearer to the edge. Note the switcher widgets on either side are taller on Trebuchet than NovaLauncher as well, and the left one is much closer to the left edge of the display.
[Nova Launcher] TheBiles:
Loving this on AOKP. I'd love to see this on the Market so I could give you my money!
[Nova Launcher] cynkrzy:
Sweet!

Late to the Part as usual, I finally broke down and bought and installed Widget Locker which I'm guessing is from the same Dev, lovin it,

So I expect I need to give this one a test t'boot!
[Nova Launcher] kimboinatl:
+1 on this. The one thing I don't like about the new ICS app drawer is that I have to swipe every time I want to go to the next page of apps. With the old drawer I could just swipe once and let it scroll all the way to the bottom (or put my finger down to stop it). Or if this could be done horizontally that would be fine too.
[Nova Launcher] TheBiles:
The icon labels disappear when you add 7 rows. Can we get that fixed?
[Nova Launcher] the1dynasty:
PLEASE leave the app drawer with the stock ICS scrolling... if anything, add an option so people can do the "waterfall scrolling" like mentioned a few posts up... but please don't make it the only option... i really disliked that on GB and i prefer how the scrolling goes into the widgets! ty :)
[Nova Launcher] biggad:
Mine doesn't either. :confused:
[Nova Launcher] dedalum:
Same problem here, tochwiz rom on note 4 lollipop, and the gestures not working finr, please fix it

[Nova Launcher] KreAch3R:
Hello,

Does anybody what file (drawable / layout / color etc) affects the divider/separator line between the different settings (Desktop Grid - <here> - Width margin)?

I want to edit it and for the life of me, I can't figure out which file it is. Is it taking the resource from android? If so, it should still somehow depict that in a layout .xml, doesn't it?

I know this isn't the usual kind of questions for this thread, but I would be grateful if anyone could answer. I would try to ask the developer about it, but I can't find any contact info for him.

Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] cywingnut:
Anybody know a fix for the folder icon appearing like that? I try restarting Nova launcher but it still appears like that.

It only happens to icons of folders within a folder. Current workaround I found was when I reboot my device completely. Is this a known bug?
[Nova Launcher] fclifton:
is that the color of your home screen? I can see my home screen around the edges where you have grey.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
I just tried a similar app with no result. Consider that, if I set Aviate or Trebuchet like default launchers, there's absolutely no problem. So I suppose this is something regarding Nova Launcher and Cyanogenmod.
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
In nova, under the advance setting, did you check the aggressive desktop mode? That option keeps the launcher in memory, which may help you out with your issue.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
Maybe you're right, but this doesn't happen when Trebuchet or Aviate are set like default launchers.

---------- Post added at 09:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 AM ----------

Just tried: no results!
[Nova Launcher] NovaSlim:
Your setting on these two pages? If you set Nova Launcher as always in the choice window, it should always apply unless something is wrong with your Rom.
[Nova Launcher] NovaSlim:
That's something a Rom Developer should be providing, asking Nova to do that and you get a very buggy and bloated launcher.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
Exactly like in your screenshots! The problem is that if I choose Aviate or Trebuchet just once, when I close all applications, I don't come back to Nova Launcher homescreen, but I get the window in which I have to choose again between Nova launcher, Aviate and Trebuchet. This doesn't happen if I have Trebuchet or Aviate as default launchers. The issue regards Nova Launcher only.
[Nova Launcher] androidnandroid:
Samsung has to fix it.. Nova can't do anything in it
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
Another question, after you switched over to NOVA launcher, did you killed all the tasks opened by the previous launcher? I have to ask just to be sure.
[Nova Launcher] parsifal968:
Moto G 2 2014 Lollipop with Nova Launcher Prime 3.3:

have the problem of some icons disappearing from folders in app drawer after reboot, this happens only with apps that are installed into the external sd card. They reset to default tab in app drawer.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, but there's no difference.

However, there's something new happening: yesterday I brought the mobile back to its factory settings and then reinstalled all my apps. Now also Aviate and Trebuchet reveal the same problem as in Nova Launcher: none of these three launchers keeps its default settings.

For example, if I use any of these launchers as the default one, and then I temporarily switch to another one, the originally selected launcher does not appear as the default one any longer.

In short, if Nova has been chosen as the default launcher and you then switch to Aviate, selecting 'just once', Nova loses its default state. As a consequence, when using Aviate, if I select 'home', I'm unable to go back to the Nova desktop and I have to go through the launcher selection process again.

I know that someone says this is a regular occurrence, but I'm not sure. What do you think about?
[Nova Launcher] :
If nova doesn't stay the default launcher, there is one way if you use only nova, and you are rooted:

Froze in titanium all other launchers, so that you have only nova. It will always stay default because there is no any other.. Tested..
[Nova Launcher] catman51:
Home switcher in the Play store. Not a cure, but a quick way to switch.
[Nova Launcher] Moondroid:
pre-3.3 versions

According to some, the December update (3.3) is responsible for losing Nova Launcher as the default. I've been running versions 3.1 and 3.2 (on ICS and KK) with no problems at all. I don't know much of anything about this site, but you can download older versions here:

[Nova Launcher] Robles23:
Question/Suggestion to developer.

I love Nova Launcher. I've been a fan for quite some time. Perhaps the most popular launcher out there and all icon packs are compatible. I have one small request to the developer. I dont know how difficult this suggestion would be or if its possible at all.

Could you make the status bar completely transparent as the one on the Samsung S5 or Note 4 stock launcher? I notice that there is a small shadow on top.

Feedback would be great! Thanks
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
If you're expecting the dev's feed back, he no longer browse this thread in case you miss the post. Transparent status bar is a ROM dependent issue, search this thread and you will find the similar discussions that many people already gone over.
[Nova Launcher] Tameghe:
Thanks to all! At this point I prefer to remain with this minor inconvenience, waiting for the next update of Nova, and without no default launcher, so I can switch from one to another simply by the "home" key. ;)
[Nova Launcher] hawkwind212:
Is that your goal all along? Switching from one launcher to another by pressing the "home" key?
