Great Job!!!

Thanks Knut for your great Job!! Now it´s fantastic with GEL!!! thanks you for your hard work. can i donate even if i´ve the donate-version?

and a two questions:

1) would be planned for the future to have the Google Search Bar only at the homescreen?

2) for widget-scrolling would be nice if it scorlled to the first page again from the last page?

I hope you know what i mean ..... (sonst schreib ich es dir privat)

Maybe it´s a goog idea for you!!

Thanks for your answers!!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Hi thloe,

hmm yes it's possible. I got that request already. The search bar would overlap your icons and you would need to increase the row count by one. Is this really what you want?

I could do that but I don't want to spend time on "unimportant" features. I mean how often do you actually scroll through widgets? Some requests that sound easy do actually cost me a lot of time in the end (thinking of different landscape layout e.g. cost me two evenings)

You can donate through PayPal, but there is actually no need to do it. I will hear your request with or without a donation ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Acousticbeatz:
This module makes the gnl truly awesome! Thank u for ur great work! Just a little suggestion. Would it be possible to implement something to sort the apps inside the app drawer? Maybe like most recent apps or even better, sorting the apps manually. This would make the launcher nearly perfect for me.

Can we remove the margin border of homescreen?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jsilver73:
What would be amazing would be to be able to pick widgets from a list rather than the long scrolling that crashes if you try to go to quick. Don't know how much work that would be or if it's even possible?
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Crashes?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
If you swipe to fast in the widget drawer

Google now Launcher will crash

That's a known gnl bug
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jsilver73:
Oh, is it an issue with only me then, or i9505 at least?? It's easy to replicate and not ROM or kernel specific - it happens on any set up. Settings/widgets scroll not much faster than slow and get the error message 'unfortunately Google search has stopped' either that our the widget selection goes back to the start of the scroll :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Dude! Holy spaghetti! I thought you ment my app is crashing when opening the widget list. My goodness... I'm just about to upload V1.5 and you talk about crashes...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
No issues with the module

Its a gnl bug
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jsilver73:
Ah, sorry didn't mean to cause panic! Great module - thank you :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Persechini:
Is this common? doesn't happen on my N4 and on N7 only once I got a ~1sec hang
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
Only happens if you have lots of widget pages and you scroll like a mad man

Yea not so common doesn't happen every time
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jsilver73:
Lol - I don't think I really have that many widgets, and I mean, I have to be really careful (like wait at least 1 second in between pages) else crash city! Not exactly a 'mad man'. Anyhow IMO scrolling pages of widgets is kinda archaic, a list to scroll through like nova or apex would be much better ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
Hahaha, you're freaking out man! Come back from the ledge... :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] mitchst2:
Can't get the HTC one to crash in the widget drawer at all.
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
My nexus 4 will if I swipe too fast. Which I am inclined to do if I want something at the end of the list (zooper really needs to start with an 'A'). 25-30 pages is annoying to swipe through.
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
V1.5 is live

V1.5 just went live on Google Play. You may want to reboot your device ;)

I'm loving the new gestures and gesture action, I'm glad I can share it with you!

Changelog:

added:

Gestures

Swipe up left, middle, right

Swipe down left, middle, right

Swipe down to close app drawer

Swipe up to toggle between all apps and widgets

Double tap

Gesture actions

Notification bar

Quicksettings panel

App drawer

recent app

Android settings

Go to sleep

Unhide dock

Launch app

added: hide widgets (found under general)

added: margins on homescreen

added: customizable folders

added: autohide option if dock is hidden

added: change dock color even if it's not hidden

added: option to show power off button on every screen

added: increased choosable grid sizes

added: changelog found under settings menu

fixed: navigation bar action should now work even though the icons may not change because of your ROM/mods

fixed: search bar is now showing on drag from app drawer (bug introduced with recent GNL update)

fixed: flashing navigation bar buttons

fixed: hide clock now also works if no dynamic navigation bar buttons are enabled

fixed: crash from crash reports

I disabled double tap to toggle the dock because for some strange reason this action is not working with this gesture. I also made swipe down left and right free with all action, swipe up middle is limited to "open app drawer". That way you don't lose anything you had before. All of the other new features are free, too.

Thanks to everyone who helped and tested with me. Pat your shoulder! You deserve it.

If you like the update I'm always more than happy to hear a positive feedback rather than only getting negative feedback.

Don't forget to reboot your device after receiving the update! I'll push to Xposed Repo tomorrow.

Have fun and gute Nacht!
[Xposed Framework Modules] disthomuc:
Last update is breaking something

Your application is realy an excellent job and I am ashamed, that I am only writing when problems

After updating my Galaxy S3 on Android 4.3 with your new version of xposed gel I had serious problems. The launcher did not come up properly (angehalten) after waiging a bit I could login but the message appeared again and again.

It looks like the launcher is constantly crashing.

I could fall back to a previous version and it was working again.

Sorry that I cannot provide more information
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
When you mention updating your phone, are you simply talking about updating this module? Or your android version? Are you using gel/gnl or the stock launcher with your phone?

If your launcher is crashing, have you tried disabling xgels and rebooting to see if the issue persists?

A logcat would also be necessary although this doesn't sound like an issue with xgels.
[Xposed Framework Modules] disthomuc:
sorry for not being precise enough.

I mean update of xposed gel only. after unistall xgel new version and installing xgel previous version via titanium backup it was perfectly working again.

sorry i dont have any logs and I need this phone and cannot play today.
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
Ok, make sure you reboot your phone if you haven't already (after updating). Otherwise, just confirm you're using the gel/gnl launcher and not your stock launcher and send a logcat (after updating and causing the crash again) when you can.
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
I'm sorry to hear that and I'm afraid I don't know what happened. I heard those weird crashes before but it always doesn't make sense at all. If there is a possible incompatibility I always rename the settings key so that you have to set the setting again. Can you please export the xgels settings file and post it here? Also maybe the xposed log still has relevant information (xposed installer -> logs -> save to SD).

So you got the update from Google play, rebooted and ended up in a crash loop?!
[Xposed Framework Modules] disthomuc:
I am using the google experienced launcher and I did a reboot. exactly after the reboot before entering the pin the problems started. I will give it a play next weekend, when I have time to play
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Did you check the xposed log?
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
I stand corrected. This does look like an xgels issue. The dev will have to check it out.
[Xposed Framework Modules] faslane:
Awesome. at least I'm not going crazy ;)

Still LOVE it, these things happen :)

[Xposed Framework Modules] linelock:
Hi. Great app, it really eliminates the need for a custom launcher.

On this newest update I seem to have lost the ability to swipe up the hidden dock. I can hide it but there is no way to unhide the dock. In the past an up gesture unhid it and it still says under the Hide dock option "swipe up to show again". In the gesture menu the only option for swipe up middle gesture is app drawer. I have the app drawer button removed from the dock and use the dynamic home button to access the App drawer. Just wondering if this is a feature you removed from the free version or is it a bug?

Thanks for your time,

Grant.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
I had the same problem

Until I figured out that dock is hiding and unhiding correctly but I couldn't see that bcoz I didn't had anything in my dock and it was completely transparent
[Xposed Framework Modules] linelock:
Hmm my dock is loaded. thanks for the reply though :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] caalca:
Just amazing. I just would like animations. Would it be possible one day?
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Pushed V1.5.1

Pushed V1.5.1 to Google Play

fixed SystemUI crashes in case of incompatibility, [MENTION=5801244]disthomuc[/MENTION]

made toggle dock free for non donators, thanks to [MENTION=4440661]linelock[/MENTION] for the heads up

removed leftover logging

[MENTION=3375568]caalca[/MENTION] seems unimportant to me. I rather concentrate on more usefull stuff at the moment. To answer your question: One day, maybe.
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Your log doesn't make any sense to me. It's pointing to empty lines of code. I don't know what happened there. However I've made some checks and prevented NullPointerExceptions. The UI will no longer crash but the functionality will not work, too. You seem to have a not supported ROM but you said you used a previous version so this is even weirder...
[Xposed Framework Modules] disthomuc:
yes i am using latest standard rom from samsung for galaxy S3 with gel manually installed. I will check out the new version as soon as available on google play.

repo shows 1.4.1...how to get 1.5.1 manually...
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Sweet! I mean it's not working but at least it's not crashing. Still wondering why it doesn't work. Can you please provide ROM and Xposed mods you are using?

I'll sync it tonight. Just wondering, what are you planning to do? I'll push to Xposed Repo tonight as well, if you mean that.
[Xposed Framework Modules] disthomuc:

Can you believe this? 1* rating from Google Play:

It's incredible what garbage I have to go through every day. This rating btw. decreased my overall rating by 0.01. Imagine every feature request is a 1* rating.

Is it possible to flag post or even users on Google Play?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dovidhalevi:
Play auto-updated to 1.5.1. Tremendous. No real issues so far.

In folders section, set transparent preview background, looks real classy this way :)

Sometime, restarting the launcher will yield that "nothing restarted reboot immediately" message. A couple of minutes later will work normally. Did the reboot once to get the folder colors working.

So: what is the meaning of "launcher reboot?"

(Hot reboot is restarting dalvik

Normal reboot is complete reboot.)
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
Restart launcher means basically killing the Google Quicksearchbox process. So when you go to the homescreen you see it loads the process again. But this time with your new settings.

The message probably appeared because everytime the changelog is shown on startup the needsFullReboot flag is set. Because you have to do a full reboot to activate the module changes (app works right away). This is also the reason why you had to reboot to apply the folder changes.

Furthermore, when you kill the launcher but don't go back to homescreen the process is already killed. So when pressing the button again it won't kill the launcher again because it's not started, yet.

Can you add the ability to make a shortcut from an app that's in system/app?? I want to make a shortcut on gel that opens directly xperia home launcher..

Just donated to you. How do I turn on the features in the app now?
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
You've donated through PayPal not the app. I've rejected your donation. Please open XGELS and go to the Donate menu. From there you can donate in order to unlock features. There is no other way to do it.

by the way how and where do you donate?

The post right above yours.... :confused:

---------- Post added at 07:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 AM ----------

Is anyone else getting very poor framerate when in the XGELS app menu? My performance on 1.4.1 was outstanding. However after the update, 1.5 and still 1.5.1, navigating the menus looking for mods is very laggy and and takes about 2-4 seconds to open the upper left pull out menu.

Love the app, the work you put in for us, and your rapid support with issues. :highfive:

Okay

hey mate

i would advice not to let these comments/users effect you..

you give the moon to someone, he'll pro'lly want mars

[Xposed Framework Modules] mukintaras:
Hello there! Thank you A LOT for the job you've done. And aspecially for the last bit of improvements - app drawler button instead of home is incredibly usefull. But can I ask for a bit of a change?

Firstly, icon is not good vertically centerred, it should be lower. Secondly - it's the previous shape of this button, new one is 6 dots, not squares. And finnaly shadows are too strong, please make them softer.

But that's just about icon. How about changing "back" button to "home" everywhere? We don't need back both on any of desktops and on the app drawler, but home button as way to go to default desktop is pretty useful. Maybe change icon, maybe change only behaviour, maybe convert back button to app drawler button and hold "home" on it's place - I don't know, which of this options is better, but my fav if "Change home button to app button, change Back behaviour to Home behaviour, but hold the icon"

Please think about this parts, this would make this feature preciselly 94,7% better for me =)

And again thanks for you work, you're amazing :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] acabreram:
Bro if i donate you i will get the pro version??

Lol it has been a while someone quoted the OP. It was time again :)

Yes donating will only work from within the app and it will unlock all features. And yes it will be remembered across all phones but you have to use the same account on all these phones.
[Xposed Framework Modules] letmedanz:
i have a question, if anyone could help-

i've placed a power control type widget (power toggles) at the bottom of the home page.

but i am unable to pull it completely down to the bottom row.

it stays at the last but one row for some reason.

i can add single icons to the bottom row, but not any of the 'bar' widgets..

not sure, but i think this issue was non existent prior to update?

btw i have dock & everything related to dock disabled
[Xposed Framework Modules] theknut:
You mean you can't do that? Can you post a screen shot and show what you mean?
[Xposed Framework Modules] letmedanz:
Sorry... Had some issue with Tapatalk to upload pics..

Here is the screen shot

That's the lowest row it goes to..
[Xposed Framework Modules] mitchst2:
That's a widget.

Can't place widgets in the dock.
[Xposed Framework Modules] letmedanz:
i have the dock disabled..

i can place single icons, but can't pull the bar down :P

see here-
[Xposed Framework Modules] mitchst2:
I assume the same rule still applies to the dock space even when hidden

Edit

I stand corrected.

I was able to hide dock and resize DashClock widget to full screen. Try resizing the widget to stretch it into the dock area.

Edit 2

Just tried Power Toggles and was able to move it straight to the very bottom of the screen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
How many rows do you have? I've noticed that app shortcuts are placed in the middle of the grid square but that widgets are placed at the top of the square. So if you have, say, 4 rows, then your app shortcut would appear much lower than a widget that is in the same row. But if you had 10 rows, the grid squares are smaller and the shortcut and widget are pretty close, vertically.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mitchst2:
That's probably it. I've got 7 rows
[Xposed Framework Modules] letmedanz:
Thanks..

my setup is 10 rows X 5 columns..

so am guessing that should be ok?

cos i can move the dock just above where it's placed now..

just above the present widgets top line..

but can't move it below...

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ----------

ok...

that's strange indeed.

i know it works cos that's how i've been using it all these days..

could the update have changed some settings?

let me take another look and confirm with you.

thanks for your time guys
[Xposed Framework Modules] cadarn07:
Yeah, check your xgels settings and see if anything changed. Do a full reboot just in case... I just tried putting a widget at the very bottom with ten rows and it works for me too.

[MENTION=4333421]mitchst2[/MENTION] [MENTION=4732590]cadarn07[/MENTION] [MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION]

fixed!

i uninstalled the module, reinstalled & reset all settings and it's working now..

thanks for your help & sorry for unnecessarily racking your brains :P
[Xposed Framework Modules] mitchst2:
Glad you got it sorted.

Can you put widgets into the dock area on any other launchers btw?

Don't know myself as hide dock isn't a feature I ever use.

Edit

You can just tried it in holo launcher. Learn something new every day.
[Xposed Framework Modules] letmedanz:
Yep.. you can..

if the dock is disabled..

i like the real estate of the screen without the dock & the nav bar :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] dadykhoff:
I'm experiencing this too, but no where near that amount of lag. It just seems "choppy" to me, there is no significant delays in accessing anything.

I also lost some (seemingly random) settings when I updated from 1.4.1 to 1.5.1. Everything else is working flawlessly! Thank again for another great update!
[Xposed Framework Modules] ralphoberholzer:
This a great mod. Thanks for your hard work.

I was wondering if it would be possible to change the size of texts within widgets. I use Gmail widget and the text size is enormous.
[Xposed Framework Modules] BEF081056:
Great job on this. After years on stock I finally rooted over the weekend, primarily because I was frustrated with not being able to customize GEL on my Verizon SGS 4. (Don't know why it took so long!!!) Anyway, with this module plus Wanam xPosed I have all the functionality I want. Finally made it all the way through this thread and what you have accomplished in such a short time is truly amazing. Have already donated and joined donations group. Just wanted to get on and say thanks and there are a lot of folks like me who don't have your talent that truly enjoy and admire your work.
