Beta5 (2013/11/28)

+ Swipe right to open Google Now

+ Quick actions on desktop

+ Edit shortcut icons and text

+ Desktop margins

+ Fix some bugs
[Android Apps and Games] power2top:
Thanks for adding this. Have few points to note:

1. Launcher lags a lot when screen transition effects is selected. With None selected, it works ok okey dokey.

2. Ability to set default Homescreen.

3. Use other launcher Themes?

4. App Drawer background transparency did not have any effect.

5. Import settings from other launchers(Helps in easy migration to this launcher).

6. lots of restarts when changing the settings. Maybe add an option to force stay in memory.

these are the ones I can think offhead right now.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Icon packs will be supported in future.

The drawer background transparency option is ok, just try it again.
[Android Apps and Games] power2top:
ok but other things like bad lagging, etc simply spoil its utility. Will try once these points(esp. performance ones) are fixed.

My device: Nexus 7 2013 (flo)

Problems:

1. Disappearing dock after exiting Google Now by pressing back or home button. If I go to Google Now by swiping the home button upwards (like usual) and then exit it by pressing home or back button, the dock will not disappear. I can reproduce this multiple times without failure.

2. Dock is in the left side of the screen when tablet is rotated. It should be in the right side.

Temporary work around for #1: disable swipe to right to access Google Now.

Edit: picture showing problem #2

Gotta report some big .. BUG I will say.

It happened already second time. After installing this launcher on my S3,the phone doesn't want to charge. Seriously,first time,after I installed it and uninstalled,phone didn't want to charge for 10 minutes,then after some battery pulling and other things it got fixed,wooh.

Yesterday,that happened again! For the whole day. I tried this launcher again,wanted to test something,and when I plugged the charger in and it again didn't want to charge. I uninstalled this launcher and problem still not solved! Then I tried battery pulling,then formatting the phone,then another charger,firmware reinstalling,20 times restarting the phone. Nothing! I thought that my battery is ****ed up already,though the phone is not even a full year. Not even half. So I left my phone charging this night in hopes that it will charge.

Today,I woke up and saw that it charged,but still not fully. I turned the phone on,it was on 90%. After 30 minutes I noticed it was already at 97% and then I understood that it got fixed,finally! I don't know what's happening,but that happened 2 times and I'm pretty sure everything's because of this launcher. Something is wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
I don't think Epic Launcher did anything about charge, you can uninstall and try again.
[Android Apps and Games] AssassinGEO:
Well,as I said,it happened when I installed this launcher first time too,it just wasn't charging first 10-15 minutes. Battery pulling solved the problem. I uninstalled it completely. And after installing it second time,everything repeated but for some quite loong time. Only waiting solved all problems.

I googled about this problem and found that half of the users having that problem got it after installing some app's. That means it was software related problem. And I think I had the same :)
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
So strange, I'll Google it.
[Android Apps and Games] fgingras:
Great launcher man!

I have a small request, if you could add the ability to hide the scroll indicator on the homescreen, it would be awesome! I love to keep nothing on my homescreen and to have everything I need in the drawer. That little white dot remaining over my dock is the only obstacle left to fully enjoy the great launcher experience.

Keep up the good work! :D
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
margin in dock please

Good launcher, but i'm missing one thing at this moment

please at margin (space) in the dock. like apex and nova have. The thing i hate about google launchers is that the dock icons are to close together

if you ad that then i would be very happy

Beta6 (2013/12/02)

+ Vertical Drawer

+ ADW icon pack support

+ Fix landscape mode bugs
[Android Apps and Games] stfudude:
Two bugs fixed :

1. Left sided dock icons in landscape orientation.

2. Dock icons disappeared after pressing back or home in the Google Now app which was called by the swipe to right in the leftmost home screen.

One bug remains, this one I didn't report before because I find it a very minor issue:

1. Folder name disappear when the launcher is in landscape mode. (landscape grid 4x6; which is the default in GEL for Nexus 7 2013)

Edit: actually in the screenshot I put in my last post the bug is present.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
The folder name cut off? Did you try smaller icon size?
[Android Apps and Games] stfudude:
I think the icon size is the default because I didn't change it. I might try a different icon size now, as a workaround. I tried icon size=53, folder names return! Previous default setting is icon size=72.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Google did not test landscape mode on phones, so the default icon size may too big for landscape mode.
[Android Apps and Games] JoWi81:
Very nice Launcher!

Very nice Launcher!

Even better it would be if:

the "app drawer shortcut" with in the "app drawer list" appears (see Picture1) [to fix the bug after deleting the "app drawer shortcut"] and

the "app drawer icon" with in the overview appears (see Picture2),

the "app shortcut" and widgets directly on the "homescreen" could place (ICS like) and

create the new "homescreen page" also via the left side.

Sorry for my bad English. :o

can we expect folders in the app drawer?

and maybe custom folders .. like a folder icon with non visable apps on the desktop (only the folder icon)

Yes, you can expect them in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
i'm getting more and more interested in Epic launcher :laugh: :good:

one thing else that i'm missing is a margin in the dock. i like to set it the same as the rest of the desktop. Google leaves to much space on the left and right side
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Ok, you can expect it in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Would it be possible to add an option to reverse the Google Now opening style, and have it swipe left for Google Now on the rightmost homescreen?

(I have my stuff on the far right)

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] _kolle_:
Hi,

Nice launcher. One note from me: wenn pressing an icon on home screen, there is a white glow around it to show that its pressed . unfortunately this is not visible when pressing icons from folders because the white background . i believe in gel from Google the highlight is a bit more grayish !? So its visible in folders .

This is no big problem but pressing icons in folders feels not the same as on home screen ;)
[Android Apps and Games] darklyscanned:
Icon editing - replacement icon too large

Hi,

Firstly let me say - this is great!

I've tried all the other KitKat launchers and this is by far (for me) the smoothest, most stable and customisable launcher on the play store.

I don't know if it's just my device (running 4.4 Omni Rom), but when I edit an icon and replace with another icon from an icon pack, the new icon appears about 20% too big (that is - it's visibly bigger than the other stock icons).

I'm running stock dpi for my device, so I don't think it's that.

Has anyone seen this problem?

Thanks ds.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Ok, I will try to use the right side in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Which icon pack did you use? Did you try another icon pack?
[Android Apps and Games] darklyscanned:
Yeah, it could be driven by the icon pack.

I've got a HOLO Icon pack and and Ice Cream Sandwhich pack and the HOLO one works fine.

Thanks for your response.

One great feature from other launchers is the ability to backup and restore desktop settings and launcher preferences, so if you could implement that - it would be awesome for us flash-a-holics.

Thanks again
[Android Apps and Games] mcnaget:
Epic launcher.

Regards ,

i must say that this is by far one of the best launcher made now the 4.4 kitkat has the meaning.

THX for this wonderful work.
[Android Apps and Games] Evo_neo:
its only problem that I havent seen a message, phone and facebook notification numbers its all that I think but this is best kit kat launcher I ve ever seen
[Android Apps and Games] bnb25:
I just bought the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3, this launcher works great on it, looks awesome. If I had to make one negative comment, It would be that there aren't many transition effects for the home screen. I'd like to have more option. LG has one that I really like called "Accordion". That would be cool on here.

crash

The launcher is small and fast, I do not need anything else.

I have found 1 issue:

I have 3 desktop, and when I tried to rearrange the desktops, the launcher has been crashed.

The workaround was to move the apps on the desktop.

Anyway I set it as default launcher. Happy to find it.

open the Drawer with option "Vertical drawer", the Launcher crashed on my N5... on N10 no Problem.
[Android Apps and Games] kicksilver:
Hi [MENTION=4906881]nikaosoft[/MENTION],

This is a really nice launcher, but I have found a bug inside it.

If you choose a wallpaper from GALLERY, the softkeys bar turns black... Although the notification bar remains transparent. Could you take a look into this?

Also, as a suggestion, do you plan on adding "Lock desktop" into Epic? That's a really nice feature to avoid seeing your homescreen all messed up after handling your phone without paying attention to the screen...

Anyway, thanks for everything.
[Android Apps and Games] tahirakramch:
+1 Made my Nexus 4 nearly same as Nexus 5

Such a great launcher. The update of Kitkat on Nexus 4 should have all this. Like transparent status bar and bottom controls. But this launcher has made Nexus 4 nearly same as Nexus 5. Good job.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Can you send me the crash log? Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
I think the transparent bug is a system bug.

The "Lock desktop" will be added in future.
[Android Apps and Games] kicksilver:
Hi,

Are you sure of this man?

Because in both KitKat and KitKat launcher + it doesn't happen... And I presume all of them are based off GEL.

Anyway, I found out that, if I zoom in a little, the transparency is kept. If I choose the wallpaper without any zooming, the bar goes opaque.

Quite weird, if you ask me.

If you want, I can reproduce this via video.

little icon packs bug found

First of all:

great launcher guys [MENTION=4906881]nikaosoft[/MENTION]!

I'm testing it and will eventually become my default in a couple of days!

All the features I need are here (especially when I'll get the prime - btw: do you have a paypal option other than google play?)

now the bug:

when you apply a new icon theme all icons that automatically applied are fine.

But everytime you edit any homescreen icon and select a custom icon from a pack

the icon is applied in a kind of zoomed version...you may notice some designs are only partially visible even if the set icon size is respected.

Tested it with many different icon packs ;)

Pls take a look at the Recorder icon in the screenshot:

It's minor, but would be a great fix for this beautiful piece of art ;)

Take care.

[Android Apps and Games] QuietusPlus:
Been using this for a while now, just bought Prime. I have a couple of feature requests

- Automatic app sorting into folders within the app drawer using the app store categories. Somewhat like com.tsanoff.appcategories in the Play Store just in the drawer. If this requires too much coding an alternative would be to hide the apps already in a folder when selecting apps in another, going through the entire list of already sorted items in rather tedious.

- Option to disable to long-press menu on icons, I find it rather counter intuitive when resizing widgets or when removing something by swiping to the top.

Thanks for this great launcher!
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Thanks for your suggestions. Will be improved in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] ccelis:
I've currently switched from Nova to Epic. Used to try several launchers only to go back to Nova but Epic is perfect for me. One question though, is there an option to keep this launcher running in the background? Nova had that in the settings.

Will be added soon;)

[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
Got it, will be fixed in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
thanks, this is really bugging me

also an option 2 back up your desktop and settings would be nice. i play a lot with custom roms

edit: and a option to re-arenge the apps in a folder
[Android Apps and Games] QuietusPlus:
Great response time, 2 days after a feature request and it's done, thanks!

EDIT: Maybe an idea would be to add an edit mode inside the app drawer, in which you can select apps (multi-select/checkboxes) and perform actions on them like hiding and assigning them to folders. This would make organizing much quicker. Not sure how you would manage apps inside folders, maybe changing from actual folders to another screen inside the app drawer (much like the apps/widgets paging pre-4.4 without tabs)

I also noticed that folders added to the desktop from the app drawer do not auto-update (not sure if this is even possible without changing the folders to widgets), minor issue though.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
The edit mode inside the drawer is difficult to implement, you can manage your drawer folders in drawer settings now (for prime users).

For the second issue, I don't understand what did you mean auto-update?
[Android Apps and Games] cyberon:
Can someone please tell me what is the standard dp icon size to match GEL icon size?

1. Add apps to drawer folder > 2. Drag folder to desktop > 3. Change contents of drawer folder > Desktop folder (step 2) doesn't change.
[Android Apps and Games] nikaosoft:
The desktop folder is just a copy of the drawer folder, so it will not change if you change the drawer folder contents.

Just as the title says. I used to tether every day on the train with my tmobile plan. I flashed manually to the official kitkat image a few days ago, and since then my tethering has been blocked by tmobile.

Has anyone else run into this and solved it?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Paten:
This is really disconcerting for me. I had my sim in a mobile hotspot with T-mobile and bought the Nexus 7 to put that sim into. I would still be able to tether with the tablet and also use SMS directly from the device instead of accessing it through a webpage. With this update, Google breaks the two features I bought this device for. Not only is this a problem but I can't seem to find a place to actually complain to Google about this and expect to get any kind of answer about it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] trjcasper:
Check the nexus 5 q&a section. There is a hack to fix this.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] elouisyoung:
I'm going to flash back to 4.3 tonight to see if i can get my tethering working again.

There is no benefit to 4.4 on my nexus 7 compared to 4.3. Actually, there is only a downside, many apps I use just crash on 4.4.

Will report back tonight if my tether starts to work again.
