We were talking about locking the launcher into memory using the "Resident" option in App Settings... To follow up on this, i still haven't seen a launcher redraw since i enabled "resident" for GNL (NOT Google Search). The down side is that my available memory stays pretty low and it seems a bit laggy with other things running. I may just switch it back to see if I'm imagining things or not.
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
No I get that. Was just adding that the "Google Search" is the main engine that when edited/hacked etc can cause major problems and break stuff is all.
[Xposed Framework Modules] midgarsormr:
Yessir. That was it

Everything's ok

Thanks Alex
[Xposed Framework Modules] mwrobe1:
Saw the update pushed to the Play Store...wow...100 thousand + downloads...congrats and keep up the great work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kaemo:
I've been wanting to propose this for a while, but never have. XGELS is one of those apps I find essential. It is the only reason I download Xposed. Hell, if it weren't for this app, I'd given up on GNL since forever. The negatives far outweigh the positives, in my opinion.

But I think the presentation could use some work. And since presentation is a big thing - basically the only reason "that" awful icon pack ever became famous - I thought that instead of just saying "The icon SUCKZ!1" I could actually help.

I started thinking about something that you could immediately understand and connect to XGELS. So I came up with....

​

For those of you that want the full size (desktop DPI) icon, there you go.
​

It uses the same edit icon that is present across Android, as well as Holo's home button to provide meaning as to what the app does.​

I know it's just the app icon, and that I made it sound like it was SUCH A BIG DEAL and I'm sorry. I love working with this stuff. :silly:

If that interests you [MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION] I'm always here if you need anything.

Aaaand one more thing: People have different tastes, so I went crazy and designed 10 more icons.

Hope you guys like it!

​
[Xposed Framework Modules] J:
I am a person that wants function over form any day for everything. However, the stuff listed above looks great and follows the current / upcoming android design language. I could understand Alex wanting to keep its all his work, but the icon(s) look fantastic. Job well done sir! I would welcome the app becoming slightly more "materialized" but again, function over form. I will be using the icon listed above, thank you.

Cheers, J (Mobile)
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
Really like it. Personally a google branded rather than ho might be cool too. Like the "g" with edit pen perhaps to stay with the Google brand itself since it indicates Google (GNL) can be editied. (So to speak) Its I'ts definitely staying within branding guidlemines all the same and well done. +1

How does one change the icon of an app please? I know you can pick one with xgels from packs etc but how would one apply this outside xgels? Looks great and I agree...the textual icon is dated and needs its own mark in the world that follows a brand. I agree if it was a slight more "Material" it'd be even awesome (r) but like the direction. I like the plain splash screen that already exists as is just because one can use their own image but like the app icon. And I'm not a fan of red but still looks great.

[Xposed Framework Modules] GermainZ:
You have to change the image (in res/drawables-*/) it uses. XGELS is open sources so you can clone the git repo, change the icon and compile, or decompile the APK directly/modify the icon/recompile if you don't want to mess with the Android SDK. If you're asking for an easier way, there aren't any at the moment.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kaemo:
That's what I did. I used APK Multi-Tool. The app is not tampered in any way(I know some people are very careful about that sort of thing). I just changed the drawables like GermainZ said. Here's the APK and here's proof it works.
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:

[Xposed Framework Modules] Elluel:
GNL has nothing to do with it, its just a stub. The launcher is part of the Google Search app
[Xposed Framework Modules] dario2106:
you may have to rename the application works as it does on nova launcher ?

sorry for my bad english
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
AWESOME!! Yeah the XGELS icon is very ugly. When you create a new project in Eclipse it gives you the option to create an icon for the application. So I just used the default icon and added XGELS to it :D I was wondering that nobody complained before.

Thank you so much! I actually really like the icon. Can you please check if the pencil design has changed for material design or has it not been changed. I always wanted the GNL icon and a little modification to it but I never knew what I could do. The pencil seems just perfect! I've already changed the app motto on Google Play to yours. Can you please message me the PSD file so that I can save all sizes I need? Send it to theknutcoding@gmail.com.

And would you mind designing a header, too? I made a header for Google Play in 5 minutes because it was mandatory before being able to upload new versions. So it doesn't look nice at all. Would be cool to have a nice looking one as well.

If you are not a Premium user already please also message me so that I can give it to you.

Thanks so much [MENTION=4890727]Kaemo[/MENTION]!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Elluel:
I thought about complaining.. But nah lol
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
I actually had three people designing me a new icon but I'm one picky mother****er so eventually they gave up :D

This one is perfect. I only want to make it waterproof for the new guidelines so it doesn't need to be changed in a month again.

I'm not a designer so I never tried to create a new icon.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kaemo:
The pencil is actually FROM Material Design. But it appeared way, way before L was announced, inside the Photos app. About the PSD file, there's a problem. Photoshop is a bit cumbersome to me, and most of what I do is extremely easy to do in Flash, so that's what I use. If you have Flash, I'll give you the .FLA, if you don't, don't worry. Once I get back from school I'll send you the rest of the icons.

About the header, sure! If you wanna give me a rough idea of what you want right away, that'd be fine with me as well. :)

(I've been a premium user for ages, but thank you :D )
[Xposed Framework Modules] midgarsormr:
It's fine for me...the app itself is what counts. Keep it up where it counts.

XGELS User Guide

Hello everyone! I can't believe how far XGELS has come since its release. I remember when it first launched with just a couple of options and now there are pages full of menus. The amount of customization is awesome and [MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION] has done amazing work here. The drawback is that, like the cereal isle at my local grocery store, the options can be overwhelming and it's easy to get lost trying to find a specific feature. And unless you are [MENTION=1264662]faslane[/MENTION] or others using a giant phablet :D, many of you are trying to navigate all of these options on a tiny phone screen like I am.

Because of this, I have made a User Guide of sorts and [MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION] has agreed to let me share it. This user guide is organized using the same menu structure that XGELS uses and with it, you can easily peruse all of the options XGELS has to offer or even search by keywords to find a specific control. I envision this being very useful if you are new to XGELS and just want to get a handle of what options there are and where they are located in the app. Or even if you are an XGELS veteran, you can search for specific options to tweak further.

Click the link below to be taken to the guide on Evernote - the OP will include a link soon as well - I chose Evernote because I could do a different "note" for each menu of XGELS to keep it organized with the same structure XGELS uses. And there are tags to make it easy to search. You don't need an Evernote account but if you have one, you can choose to "Join Notebook" to have the notebook show up in your list of notebooks. Make sure to sort the notes list ("View Options" at the bottom of the page for classic Evernote) by "Title (ascending)" so that the notes appear in the same order as they do in XGELS.

https://www.evernote.com/pub/cadarn07/xgels

I'll keep this updated as best I can as time allows. Any feedback is welcome!

(Gravity Box users, keep an eye out for one of these on the GB thread as well - should be done with that one soon)

[Xposed Framework Modules] soyimparable:
I uninstall xuidmod and wanam xposed and now everything is fine :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
Yeah usually is a conflict with those mod apps. I'd guess xuimod is the culprit. I've used most mods in gravity box and still do and Wanam has been stable with xgels too for the most part.
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Turn on Google Now (but I think I can fix this maybe)
[Xposed Framework Modules] AA1973:
Mine is black, too, but that's due to my choice of the CM theme, DarkMaterial by Thyrus.

[Xposed Framework Modules] dave__:
Two questions:

1) Is it possible to have folders in the App Drawer

without

adding tabs? I can't seem to toggle only folders on so then I get the row of tabs along the top.

2) Is it possible to have the created folders sort alphabetically? For example, my folder "Tasker" appears at the very first position in the app drawer even though it should be on the second page alphabetically.

BTW, the folders feature is what pushed me to buy the Premium version. Awesome app/module!

Thanks!

Dave
[Xposed Framework Modules] J:
#1 Yes. At least for me. I just open up XGEL. "App drawer" select folder. Title said folder, select icons of choosing. It places folder in top left of drawer without tabs. #2 I don't user folder(s) and have not created more than one for testing reasons. Sorry I can't help you there. Hope this helps.

[Xposed Framework Modules] FoferX:
I love the new weather widget! So great to see this excellent addition in XGELS. It appears to have a little placement issue on my Nexus 7 (2013) though, not sure what I've done differently or how I might be able to adjust it downwards a little bit?

Here's how it appears now on my screen... both the Default Search Style:

... as well as the "Android L Style:"

Is there any way to move it down a few pixels, or move the Search bar up?
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Have you made any adjustments to the dpi or are you using a modified Google Search apk (via CM theme for example)?
[Xposed Framework Modules] FoferX:
No, I haven't made adjustments to the DPI (don't even know how to.) Nor am I using a modified Google Search apk (or any theme for that matter.). My Google Search version is 3.6.14.1337016.arm.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MPAMPoULAs:

[Xposed Framework Modules] dave__:
Thanks! I figured out the folders without tabs thing. It's confusing since the slider says "Enable tabs and folders" but really only enables tabs. I can live with the folders being first in the app drawer but was curious if that's intentional design or not.

And can I install the previous version of the app and then send the bug report.....

And developer even the previous version of the aap's interface is showing but features are not working and I can confirm that it's not because of other modules I tried to disable all module and if it worked but it didn't work​

Hi developer..... I just installed the previous version of the app and the apps interface opened but the when I tap on settings tab the app is force closing again..... Is there is any solution to this....

Wondering if XGELS support app drawer open animation? And is there any way to get the Lollipop app drawer as seen in the vietnamese Nexus 9 video?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Abraam:
I was wondering if its possible to have both: ("Include App drawer option" + "Swipe through tabs") enabled at the same time?

also the "overscroll to next tab" option is great! but the transition is not very smooth like the transition within the same tab, will it get better in the next versions?

Despite these two issues, theknut, you did a great Job!

[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
Be VERY careful. Most of the time Google search updates break xgels functionality. Make sure you have a backup if you're going to try this.

This DEFINITELY breaks Xgels...just tried it. Cool find nonetheless but just know it'll break stuff currently.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hickmanje2:
I can confirm that it breaks the module. Back up your stuff.
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
I always test them because I maintain a backup every couple days (I beta test a lot of other stuff so it's necessary) but yep! BREAKAGE! LOL

But it's also good that it's leaked, it might give [MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION] some extra time to start dissecting. Major hit releases like this obfuscate the code into oblivion.

A bit off-topic, but what backup tool do you use? Which one can be used to make a full backup of my app selections, icon/folder placement, documents and preferences... hopefully automatically and wirelessly to something like Dropbox? While omitting the large media downloads like magazines and movies that I can re-download from the cloud? Does a tool like that exist? If so, I'd set it to backup nightly, if I could...

I can second the module breaks. (as expected) Replacing the Libgoogle_hotword gives you back the google anywhere options as prior. Wondering if this will be rolled out for non Lolli users.

Answering my own question, I just stumbled across this, seems legit: How to Set Up a Fully Automated App and Settings Backup on Android
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
I boot into safe strap recovery and do a backup. It'll backup the device exactly as it is. I name it uniquely with date stamp so you can tell them apart. A full backup usually takes about 20 minutes or so but will grow or shrink depending on what all is installed. Then If I mess up or anything goes wrong I just reboot back into safe strap and hit restore and select the backup name I want. You can do as many backups as your device can hold. When backing up..click on location to select internal or micro SD card as the location. I store mine on external. You could even copy that backup to a pc if you wanted...you'd just navigate to the storage location on PC (while device plugged in) and find the twrp fokder. Open it and inside is a backup folder. Each backup is inside that folder and you just copy the entire folder over for ultra safe keeping but backups aren't too big...usually 4-8GB or so....hope that helps. :)

There's other apps like helium and tibackup but I like tondo it this way. Its just as fast if not faster and are much easier to restore from.

---------- Post added at 08:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

That's one way yes..I HATE tibackup. Many tines after a flash you'll restore from it and it'll corrupt data and make your new flash completely crap. I much prefer safe strap for this, it'll restore the device to the EXACT state it was in when you did the backup and takes less than 30 minutes to backup or restore from a backup.

The 4.0 does work if you read carefully and update the .lib and .so files correctly just not with xgels.....just a reminder.
