Don't get me wrong...I'm completely torn. Henry is the best player I've ever seen, who hasn't been World Player of the Year (Casillas is up there too), and I love seeing him back in London, but I live in Newark, and go to the crap Red Bulls games all the time, just to see him, so I don't know what to do, lol. I'm a Real Madrid and Roma fan at heart, but I LOVE watching Arsenal football, so I hope the boys can make a good run at it the rest of the season. :)

Is there anyway to change the app drawer icon on this launcher?

Great launcher by the way
[Nova Launcher] Piccles:
Yes. Move the icon to one of your homescreens, long press the icon, select edit, select replacement icon.
[Nova Launcher] Nephilim:
Is that Nova or the stock launcher in the pic? Because I am using the newest Nova update and it does not have the google label.
[Nova Launcher] Piccles:
Newest nova. 10. I'm running cm9... Not sure if that makes a difference.
[Nova Launcher] Nephilim:
That's so odd, All i have on the right side is the little magnifying glass instead of the google label. When I click on it to open the search function the google lablel is there though. Makes no sense.
[Nova Launcher] vanilla ice:
I absolutely love this launcher. But is it possible to make the icons on the homescreen bigger? Any help will be nice. Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] Ryandi:
Sorry if this has been reported before. The margin of the right-most homescreen is always messed up after opening app drawer, restarting the launcher fixes the issue. Look at the Google Search widget.

Medium Margin, before opening app drawer:

Setting margin to 'None' proves to be hacky at best by looking at the overscroll effect.

Hi, I don't know if this was mentioned earlier but I think I found a bug.

Perhaps someone could confirm the behavior, to see if its not specific to me:

I have set up 2 Homescreens. If I am on the second, and I press the home button, so that I return to the first one, it jumps to the first one, but the wallpaper is still set like I am on the second one.

Can someone reproduce this?

Edit: To clarify, the wallpaper is shifted to the left. Same behavior if in App drawer and pressing home button.

Edit 2: Problem does not occur anymore after a reboot of the phone. Will watch out when problem occurs again.

Is there any way to aply an icon pack?

Currently only see to change the icons of home screens and 1 by 1.... :confused:
[Nova Launcher] gabster21:
Also noticed the wallpaper will be misaligned with your home screen if you have an

even

number of screens. Solution I found was to add a screen to make it an odd number, then the wallpaper gets centered properly.
[Nova Launcher] GooTz66:
You would have to run a theme or customer ROM. Other than that it is swapping out icons one by one.

Widgets cut off and not re-sizable

Great Launcher. Using it with Evervolv ICS. I know its beta and not complaining below, just pointing out some bugs that should probably be corrected.

I have noticed when using a grid size larger that 5x5, some of my widgets are cutoff. It doesn't matter what my margins are set too. Also, some of them are not re-sizable as others are. Case-in-point: Beautiful Widgets Beautiful Home Weather is cut-off and not re-sizable. If it was re-sizable, it would fix the cutoff issue.

FYI...The widget is re-sizable using Go Launcher, so not being a re-sizable widget is not the case.

Also, the drag to remove option is not working. You have to use the long-press option, which takes longer and requires 2 touches on the screen.
[Nova Launcher] KingJoshu:
Lately I've been having all of my widgets freeze completely until I go into Nova Settings and restart the launcher that way. Anyone else seen this?
[Nova Launcher] JonesWTF:
Yep, I've been getting this a whole lot. Also crashes a lot on most ICS roms for the GS2. It's probably the rom, but I thought it was worth mentioning, just in case.

Can you add sms unread notification or lost call? Great launcher however
[Nova Launcher] CSGirl:
I did a search and didn't see a mention of this. I love that we can rote the home screen to landscape. But is there any way to enable it to go back to vertical if you flip it totally upside down? That doesn't seem to work. My Galaxy Nexus has the charging port on the bottom, so it's easier to use my existing phone docks and just put it upside down, since it's won't fit with the usb sticking out the bottom. I know this works in Honeycomb, but I wasn't sure it was something that could be made to work with ICS or not. Thanks!

I do have the issue with some widgets being cut off, too, but I've only noticed it when I flipped to horizontal. Even if I move them down the screen, they're still cut off. Let me know if a screenshot would be helpful.
[Nova Launcher] webmastir:
Don't think that's the easiest thing to accomplish anymore due to restrictions Google put on the main apps (like gmail etc). Hope I'm wrong though.

[Nova Launcher] marcran75:
You must not have read the rules that you agreed to follow when you joined XDA. It is clearly stated that you are not to ask for ETA's.
[Nova Launcher] AakashKaushal98:
I am only asking for the stable version , as it is already in beta .. That's why I am asking the date for stable build ..., sorry for breaking the rules of XDA...
[Nova Launcher] niteh@wk:
No one knows except the author. You can send email to the author in the PlayStore. Beta is working perfectly for me. Is there a reason you're asking for stable release date?
[Nova Launcher] AakashKaushal98:
First of all thanks for replying me , I am also using latest matterinova 24 which is very good but as you know beta includes many bugs but stable will not include these bugs that's why Nova team is taking time to release the stable build , that's why I am asking the date of stable version...
[Nova Launcher] zelendel:
That is not really the case. The stable still may contain bugs that went unnoticed. Mix in different versions of Android act very differently and add in custom roms. So bugs may still be around

[Nova Launcher] AakashKaushal98:

Back to Android, after a few months off with a JB iPhone 6 Plus.

Anyways, I installed Nova + prime, but for some reason, the left screen isn't there anymore ? I am on a OnePlus One, running official CM12. Last year running Nova, I could make a screen on the left, but it's gone now ?
[Nova Launcher] JerryGNYC:
If you do a 2-finger pinch inwards to get the homescreen previews, you should get the + in the upper-right corner to add a screen. This is for the stable version.
[Nova Launcher] nIGhT-SoN:
I must say there is some lag here too, thank god I don't usually use it. xD

[Nova Launcher] Goncalo29:
Hi, is it possible to change how Nova scrolls the wallpaper?

I use 3 home screens, and I would like to add blur to the first and third ones (where I have a calendar widget and some icons, to make them easier to see), but not on the main screen.

But just editing the wallpaper doesn't work because Nova doesn't scroll the wallpaper entirely from screen to screen.

This launcher getting heavy in ram with new updates even though i only have one page and one widget only :( please how to optimize and fix jt
[Nova Launcher] SJMarty:
I'm running #materinova.26 on my stock and rooted Note 4.

If I create a "Reboot" shortcut using Secure Settings, the shortcut works one time and only one time. After the reboot, if I tap the icon, nothing happens. No error, nothing.

If I create a "Reboot Toggle" shortcut using Elixir2, the shortcut also only works one time. With this one, after the reboot, if I tap the icon, I get the "Unfortunately, Elixir has stopped" message.

I'm running the paid/pro version of both Secure Settings and Elixir2. The apps worked fine under the release version of NLP - they only display these issues running the beta.

Can anyone else confirm this behavior?

[Nova Launcher] adelancker:
I love the new Nova, even though I think some things in the settings are somewhat cluttered (such as icon sizes).

I was wondering if you can open the app drawer above the dock, so the dock remains visible?

Is that already possible or is it a feature that might be added in a future release?

Thanks in advance
[Nova Launcher] vitoski:
Hey.

I have the same problem and it only appears when I have full immersive mode enabled (notification bar and navigation bar are both hidden). The moment you bring back both bars (either by swiping from the top or bottom) pull notification bar works just fine. If both bars dissappear the gesture for pulling notification bar stops working again.

Other gestures work just fine.

Checked accessibility menu and there is no Nova Launcher. It has never been there and I do not believe it has anything to do with that.

I tried another program (GMD gesture) and it works just fine irrespective from impressive mode.

Big delay to show widget previous.

If you add a widget tapping home, and you want to add one at the end in alphabetical, for example world clock in my list, if you start scrolling from first page, Nova can generate the previous before you scroll the last page (first screenshot), but if you scroll left to visualize the last page of widgets, as the first, the previous is non available (second screenshot).

If you have a lot of widgets, this delay is annoying…

Blame google. That is how the new launcher3 is set up, Nova is built of source code provided by Google. They are so worried about stupid animations and fugly material design over function and ease of use...

[Nova Launcher] AdiSimpson:
really great beta :good:, i hope the final uses not so much ram.
[Nova Launcher] andrewilley:
Ah, so THAT's why some parts of the new Nova look like that. I had assumed Kevin was just blinding aping Google's design foibles - which seemed odd given his wonderful attention to detail and user-interface improvements elsewhere - but if he's just using the raw Lollipop code for that screen then that explains why it is so unfriendly to use.

Personally, I think I'd suggest he goes back to the old code completely for that screen, as that new homepage editor has absolutely no redeeming qualities over the old format as far as I can tell, it's worse in every single respect.

Andre
[Nova Launcher] AakashKaushal98:
Plzzz add more animations in nova launcher also is there any planning of theme store in the nova..??
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
Original Nova was based on launcher 2, the trebuchet launcher. Just going to take time to rewrite all the code that makes Nova so great. You can always revert back, I'm on Nova prime 3.3. Newer is not always better, if Kevin didn't update to launcher 3 or release a public beta, users would be calling for his head saying he abandoned the project and robbed them. People think once you pay for something they are entitled to a lifetime of free updates. The Dev here is a 1 man show not a corporation like Google that literally has 1000s of people contributing to their stuff. And Google still can't release a stable build of anything. Lol

[Nova Launcher] jazzespresso:
i don't think so it is related to launcher3, if so neither HTC or LG or TouchWiz does not do that, I am just saying....consider that if you have many apps, thus many widgetd, it should remember where you left off on widget pages to avoid scrolling pages and pages....that's quite stupid..same stuff happens on app drawer too....
[Nova Launcher] ylexot:
Actually, I would much rather have the REALLY old way where each app that has widgets is listed individually. When you select the app, you get the list of all of the widgets associated with that app. For example, I have HD Widgets which has several pages of widget choices, but with the old way, it would just show one entry for HD Widgets (20) where the number in the parenthesis is how many widgets are associated with it.
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
Those launchers are not built off launcher 3. They are their own builds, they are built are the specific framework of those devices. Your issue can be fixed, just going to take time to implement the code.

I am having the same problem with Secure Settings. TF101 with KatKiss (Lollipop 5.1).

HOWEVER, the same problem occurs with Launcher 3, and since materinanova is based on Launcher3 - #blamegoogle :eek: :p
[Nova Launcher] ylexot:
I don't think Nova 3.3 worked that way. I think you have to go back to the 2.X series, but I could be wrong. The reality is that I deal with widgets so incredibly infrequently, that I really don't care how it is set up because a minor inconvenience on a very rare occurrence.
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
I'm on 3.3 and Nova remembers my last position in drawer, widgets and my widgets are not paginated into 5000 screens, just scroll thru vertically and if an app includes 25 widgets they are all linked so I don't need to search all 25 for the 1 i want. Launcher 3 and new Nova is like going back to the stone age in my opinion, plus it is ugly as hell. I'll let the fanboy pooh and ah over stupid animations, bad shading, and horrible color schemes.

[Nova Launcher] myhamstring:
Question on dock height, specifically editing a pref file perhaps?

I've been a Nova user for a very long time. However, I'm increasingly annoyed that the Dock Height settings of "medium" and "large" are too restrictive. I want to make the designated dock area taller. Allow for more space to put a custom dock behind it, a way to make the page indicator dots not quite so smashed up looking. Is there a way to edit some sort of file to increase pixel height or something?
[Nova Launcher] Pfeffernuss:
Which is not handy when you've hidden the app there...

Apps I put on the homescreen I often hide in the app drawer. That way the app drawer (already divided into three sections) keeps clean and all three sections only consist of one page.

Now, when wanting to add such a hidden app to the homescreen it's a hassle. Settings, drawer, hide apps option, unhide the wanted app, drag app icon to homescreen, hide app again. A simple Add App, like there used to be, would be much much easier and faster.
[Nova Launcher] jazzespresso:
I am not sure, but like you said, HD Widgets comes with over 10+ widget, and some other apps comes more than one widgets, and if you consider that if you have many apps and their associated widgets, the widget section gets considerably long, many pages....top of it, Nova seems like having issue loading widget pages (always has been like that), and occasionally Nova beta crashes on me when I scrolling widget page a bit faster..

A lot of launchers like that, they bring a lot of good features, but if you ask me no one paying attention to widget section, they (developers) all left pretty much the same (launcher3)..
