[Android Apps and Games] baalco:
hi, the "settings" button disappeared, so I can not add widgets and access to settings. I have only soft buttons on the phone. Any idea?
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
Got it. You can slide in the menu with a swipe from the left side of the main screen.
[Android Apps and Games] baalco:
woww, what a noob am I..... thx for the help!
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
I have a new issue. I want to change the language back to english. Seems not be possible in the settings. It uses the system language automatically i think; which in my case is german.
[Android Apps and Games] khriztianjs:

How can you set the tile's background color to the theme background color? Once I change the theme, I have to go through and change a bunch of modified tiles (the ones I changed) to the new theme color. It would be nice to just select "theme default".

[Android Apps and Games] confli©t:
hi,

help please...my contacts tile doesnt show my contact's picture, how did you guys fix this?

another ting, for single contact tile, not the one with flipping pictures of all your contacts, i can change the picture here, but how do you direct it to let's say, call my friend when i press it?

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] shinichi762142003:
thanks, good game:good:
[Android Apps and Games] doncompadre:
1. look if u bind the right application (contacts)

2. if u make a shortcut tile then choose contacts and choose there the number of the person u want to call.

then u can press the tile and it will call

[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
So how do i manage my hidden apps on the app screen now? The app screen doesn't have a slide-in menu like the main screen, only buttons for search and sorting order.

Language switching is also not available.
[Android Apps and Games] duhhh:
Click menu button
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
I have no menu button anymore with the launcher since the 1.3 update, when the slide-in menu for the main screen was introduced. I have a Nexus 4 with soft buttons, if that is important.
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
It's getting frustrating not to have direct access to apps because they're missing on the app page of the launcher. Will there be a fix any time soon?
[Android Apps and Games] yeahman45:
you have a list of all apps when you swipe left of the launcher
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
I know. But how do i re-enable hidden apps without a menu? The menu is gone since the 1.30 update.
[Android Apps and Games] yeahman45:
ah ok yup menu button is gone with latest version .. fortunately i have a physical menu button which i use... try button savior or something similar (but definitely need a proper fix for this issue)

nice wp8 replica just needs flip animations when going in/out all the menus can someone get this happening?
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
1.3.1 doesn't fix the missing menu option in app view. :mad: Or is not a bug, but a feature?
[Android Apps and Games] LaserChicken:
Great launcher! I wish I could modify the geometry of the tiles and use common icon packs--but it's still great.
[Android Apps and Games] thelarde:
In case you didn't notice: swipe from left to right in homescreen to open the menu...

Hth,

Larde.
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
As i mentioned above, it's not the menu on the homescreen that is missing, but the menu in the app view or 2nd homescreen, whatever you may call it. If your phone has hard keys you can access the menu, but with soft keys you are lost. This all worked up to <1.3.0
[Android Apps and Games] thelarde:
Oh, I never noticed that there was a menu before. But what do you need that for? Oh, you mentioned re-enabling hidden apps before. But you can do this from the menu reachable from the home screen, can't you? Open the menu, swipe right two times, last menu entry is managing hidden apps.

Or I didn't get the problem twice now, that might as well be. ;)

Regards,

Larde.
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
I can open the first menu with a swipe to right, where are 6 options. No further swiping or additional options available.
[Android Apps and Games] jurkla:
You have two menus. First one comes up when you swipe to the right on the homescreen. The second one comes up when you swipe to the left on the app drawer screen.

Go to the "App-Drawer" and swipe to the left. There is a menu where you can find the refresh, list or grid, app sort, hidden apps, batch add and app settings buttons.
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
That's interesting. On my N4 this 2nd menu is missing. On the app page i only have the title Applications on top of the page and two static buttons for sorting and searchings apps. Maybe my installation of the launcher is corrupt.
[Android Apps and Games] thelarde:
Choose the third option in the upper row. My launcher now is in german, but i guess it's called something like setup in english. The options for the desktop will come up. Then you can swipe left two times to get into the options you are looking for.
[Android Apps and Games] ahmadsamhann:

I was using this launcher for a couple of days, but it seemed that it drains a lot of battery on my xperia p. Any thoughts about batt usage? In rest, was pretty much the same as wp8, only better. Now I use apex and it doesn't evem appear on batt usage apps.
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
No problems here with my Nexus 4. It's your phone or another app that is draining the battery.
[Android Apps and Games] 2lame4fame:
notification not working for me...someone can help?(service already activate)
[Android Apps and Games] happycadaver:
With version 1.3.2 the app screen also has a slide-in menu like the home screen. Only on the other side (swipe from right). Now everything is perfect again. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Side3ffect:
Hi@all,

I really love the launcher, but after I´ve changed the default theme of the launcher like this: (can´t post outside links)

it crashes and says "launcher8 stopped". Then I have to delete the data of the app and the launcher works again, but I can´t restore my saved theme because then it get "launcher stopped" again.

I´am on a SGS3 with CM10.1

Would be great if somebody could help!

Thx in advance!

Sorry for my english, not a native speaker.
[Android Apps and Games] RCranium666:
Wish they'd make an English version of their website. Love the launcher though. Used it on my note2 and now on my s4. Amazing how smooth its gotten since the original version. It even rotates into landscape mode, but the tiles don't scale correctly, I.e. they get too large. I like it better even and my l920 with wp8.
[Android Apps and Games] fashion_live:

[Android Apps and Games] RCranium666:
There are several launcher7 tiles packs that work real well. There are threads on xda about them. There are no specific launcher8 icon packs.

[Android Apps and Games] polstein:
Just installed today, so I'm early playing mode & reading this & the show off thread.

Question - I'm hiding the notification bar at the top. Is it possible to set it so that if I'm already in Launcher8, hitting Home again will cause the notification to drop down?

Something I'm already missing?

Edit: Just noticed by accident that you can still swipe down where the bar would be to see the bar (but I still like the home button idea).

New Question (about to search for it): Any way to edit the order of Apps in a Folder, or do I have to remove/re-add to get them in Alphabetical order?
[Android Apps and Games] downset00:

[Android Apps and Games] polstein:
A problem I noticed. I'm using the News Genie widget, which is supposed to rotate & show news stories every few seconds. When I add the widget it rotates fine, but when I go to the home screen later it's stuck on 1 story & won't update.

Can anyone else confirm if it's this widget or others like it?
[Android Apps and Games] Zacharybinx34:
Hello,

First off, love the launcher and the metro style! Works great for phones, not so great for mouse and keyboard on pc =)

I have two specific problems.

1. The battery drain on my Galaxy S3 running CM10.1 is unbearable. I woke up this morning, came to work, and noticed that without much use it had drained 30% of my battery already! Any ideas?

2. The lock screen is great, however when unlocking the device the status bar has a very very awkward transition from the Windows 8 style to the CM10 style. Is there a solution for this? It looks ugly and bothers me as the transition is all jerky looking.

If I can fix these two things I will definitely stick with this launcher.

Love it! Thanks!

[Android Apps and Games] shambolic:
I have been using this for a while and like it but the other day I decided to try out it's lockscreen. Big mistake, it sent me to download anall lock screen. now I know why it has such a name! It has taken over with a very bland boring screen and I can't remove it. I tried an uninstall app and it removed the app in the app manager but the screen is still there. It's horrible, why can't it be removed? It's behaving like some kind of malicious software. Anyone know how to remove it from my Note 2?

[Android Apps and Games] makiavelo:
hello, thanks for this awesome launcher, it's closely to the real MS WP8... i bought the pro version and now I am getting this message

"You are currently using launcherwp8 throug the purchase of certified yet..."

From what I understand is that some of the license is not well, and I think it is some programming error because the PRO version is recent...It's a bit annoying because you hit the buy button and opens the play store, that you can close, but it is still uncomfortable doing all the time. This message has occurred to me three times so far...
[Android Apps and Games] Zacharybinx34:

I have enabled the Launcher8 service under the statusbar settings and selected the apps that I want it to monitor but no numbers are shown on the app tiles regardless of how many notifications I receive (I am using a Gmail binded 1x1 app tile). Does anyone have solution? Cheers.

Launcher is good, BUT!

Can i somehow remove those swipe gestures, wich open menu?

And when you press Search button(HTC Sensation) and try to search on web, it goes not to Google, but through some wierd chinese page! >Is it possible to change that?

These two are the only things i hate about this launcher.

ou, and i originally downloaded it from GooglePlay, but then i made an update from their server(in Settings>More>Check for update), and seems like the app lost connection to Play, couse in store>My Apps this launcher shows as uninstalled app. Is it good or bad, i don`t know!

How to turn off the Lock Screen

Just go inside Theme Option then swipe left. Tada! you're now presented with the Lock screen option. Do to it as you like. BTW this option has been inside Launcher 8 since forever its just not that obvious to a lot of people. Thats why i see a lot have trouble turning-off the Lockscreen. Then again maybe because everything in their forum is in Chinese. :p
[Android Apps and Games] mjriddell:
Love this Launcher! Everything was working fine until I just upgraded to Android 4.1.1 (got a used HTC One S), and now my email tiles are not showing unread counts! It's frustrating as everything was working perfectly (even showing my unread Touchdown work emails in the tile). I made sure all the settings are correct, and have emailed Support, but I'm hoping anyone has confronted and solved this problem before? I've searched and haven't seen any resolution.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] _SpAiK_:
This is more like a suggestion, but it would be nice to have all the default notification bar icons (radio and wifi signal, gps or bluetooth when active, etc.) in a dedicated tile, maybe the clock/date tile, so then we could disable android notification bar and use the embedded wp8 notification style for a full wp8 experience. What do you think?

btw, since I installed this launcher I'm in love with it, even better than miui.

How to design THEME or EDIT .anall file?

Hello Android "Wizards"!

This seems to be the still operational thread for the LAUNCHER 8...even thought the latest version (of PRO) is up to V.2.2.2...

Please correct me if I should post this elsewhere.

I understand that this thread is not run by the developer of the app but I hope he "hangs out" here occasionally and can read English?! LOL!

I want to make my own THEME for this launcher...not just by modifying it in the app but by editing the files in the theme package. There is the one file that seems to be the KEY to it all with the ".anall" extension but I can't figure out what (computer) language it's in or what I need to open and edit it.

HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS???

I LOVE this launcher and am using it successfully but I have some modifications I'd like to make.

THANKS FOR ANY HELP or SUGGESTIONS!
[Android Apps and Games] dec74n:

I have a samsung lte S3 (i9305) with rom 4.4.2 kitkat.

Just one question: on the unlock screen, it gives me the day in English, but the month in a language I do not know.

The month of March, calls him "MAPT". Can I fix this?

Why do not you give me also the month in English?

Thank you.
