Oh... OK. I'm pickin' up what your layin' down.

Much too objective for me to understand when I'm irritated.

I happened to be clicking on this person's link when I had to reboot my tablet so I could get my browser back without clicking "OK" to an android cleanup tool. That's how it became relevant to this thread, although not to the main topic of it. You're right... it is more general than this. It should actually be prohibited.

From now on, if you agree with my point, please tell me that first - it will make me like you before I read what else you have to say.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

You are right - at this point. I HAD TO REBOOT MY TABLET for God's sake! Do you have any idea what it's like to reboot one's tablet? I have a 2013 model, so it takes in excess of a minute - and that's only AFTER several seconds of holding the power button. So between the >1 minutes startup plus the holding of the power button, that's still in excess of one minute. Maybe close to double that - or two minutes.

Nobody reboots their tablet. I think the last time I did that was like a year ago last Christmas. So this basically changed my life.

Thanks for your calming words. At least I no longer feel alone. Victimized, yes... but victimized with others.:highfive:

Virus Alert

I sent the file Velvet.apk to Google Drive and tried to download it back, but the Drive says that this file contains a virus.

Please verify this for yourselves and, if this is so, perhaps some MOD could make something to block the suspected file.

[Android Apps and Games] Andre Verissimo:
Thank you for your opinions. Sure I won't use it, no more.

But since Google says the apk has a virus, I prefer waiting for a Moderator contribution here.
[Android Apps and Games] jayRokk:
You're the only one posting about a 'virus' while everyone else is running this.

How is it that a lot of people use this but not one has complained about a virus?

C'mon man. Use common sense.
[Android Apps and Games] egingell:
Since when is Google Drive a reputable virus scanner?

Edit: Besides, you don't need Velvet.apk, you just need GoogleHome.apk - Velvet (Google Search) has been updated beyond the one in the OP.

Works on my Nexus 7 2012 on CM10.2, but there are two problems:

-the drawer icon is not the new one

-the launcher is clearly not optimized for landscape mode

As you can see, the widget handle bars go under the Google Now bar and the apps' names are not shown properly.

I think they will be fixed when the official image comes out for either N7 2012 or 2013, thanks a lot man ;) :thumbup:

[Android Apps and Games] sdancer:
My current version is 4.1.1 so I suppose it will work ????

Anyway, i am little confused with this. This luncher does not update my OS to the newer version it is just an application that will allows me to install newer android apps ?

I would prefer to update my OS with the newer version. Is that possible ? Toshiba does not offer such updates. Can I use a custom firmware or a hack to update my firmware ?

Regards,
[Android Apps and Games] egingell:
This is just a launcher - like Nova, ADW, EverythingMe, TouchWiz Home*, etc. You likely already have it installed, but you need the GoogleHome.apk installed to access and use it.

*Samsung proprietary.

If you want to put a different ROM on your tablet, I suggest you check the forum for said tablet or do some Google searching.

Any chance of getting "ok google" to work without using the google launcher? The launcher is alright. I really love the google now page but would still rather use Nova for now. Obviously, in a perfect world, I'd love to keep the "ok google" feature but it doesn't work on nova. You have to click the microphone first and then proceed to with "ok google"

Just wondering if anyone thinks this is possible. Not too sure why it wouldn't but just don't know how to make it work/have the mic always on.

It should work on 4.1+. Tested only on 4.3.

You don't need the new Google search app(I tried without it) & very likely neither the new play services.

Anyway, whether you use it or not (new search app) the integration won't work.

If you want just try the new launcher this could be useful

[Android Apps and Games] Ashalak:
Can't say I am all that impressed at the moment to be honest, I accept that most stock launchers tend to be basic but not to have a single option to change is going a little too far! Plus it doesn't work so well on a lower DPI, the dock seems to autoscale to fit 7 icons (ala tablet) and the app drawer icons are far too large given the DPI I am using, looks a little silly and they end up looking blurry!

Hopefully it can be tweaked in the not too distant future :)
[Android Apps and Games] :
It worked on my Nexus 4 by default at first, but I uninstalled and reinstalled hoping to get rid of the Google Search app crashes before I read the fix. Now, I can't get it reactivated, even under the Voice and Hotword Search settings.

I just checked it again and fixed my issue. Update the offline language pack for the US English, and the Hotword Search should be re-enabled.
