I just flashed this via TWRP on my rooted BLU Life One X 2016 running Lollipop 5.1.1 and it works fine. The Google Now swipe feature wasn't working at first but then I updated to the latest Google app and now it works fine. Haven't tried the daily wall paper feature as I don't think I'll use this as my daily launcher (I prefer Nova).

One thing to note: When I try to disable App suggestions in settings, it force closes.

Widget picker causes force close on LG V10... Cannot pick widgets.
[Android Apps and Games] pdgpereira:
Very impressed with this launcher so far. Flashed the zip on my N6P NPD90G.

Would like to set the time interval to change wallpapers and maybe buffer in a few prior to the switch. But just the sheer amount of wallpapers is amazing.

The transition in the new app drawer is very fluid. Going into the google now not so much. There's a little hesitation fading out the home contents.

Widget page just rocks on the scrolling action.
[Android Apps and Games] vastateofmind:
I flashed the .zip in TWRP on my rooted Nexus 6 running 7/30 version of PureNexus Marshmallow ROM. Works perfectly, or almost so -- I've seen some reports that folks can click on the calendar widget at upper right of homescreen and go direct to Calendar, however, nothing happens when I click on the Calendar. Certainly not a deal-breaker...otherwise works flawlessly, including the daily wallpaper feature. I wasn't sure about these changes when I first read the reports yesterday, but having done a hands-on now, I prefer the Nexus Launcher over the Google Now Launcher. I always love Nova, and often switch back to it for icon packs, but I like what I see here.

Found the fix After applying the theme, you need to go to:

/data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/databases/

Delete: app_icons.db_journal app_icons.db

Then "Force Stop" the Google App.

[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Hi, guys...

I've just got around to flashing this (via TWRP custom recovery) on my HTC One M8 phone and my HTC manufactured Nexus 9 (data encrypted) tablet.

See screenshot attachmemts below.

Both devices are running systemless rooted Marshmallow, Android 6.x (and Sense 7.0 on the M8.)

No difficulties or complications flashing and both devices rebooted without problems (with the expected

"Android is upgrading...1 of 2"

message).

--------------------

On both devices, everything seems to work.... Google Cards slides out from the left as on the officially available version of the Google Now Launcher, and the new Wallpaper Picker provides access to some very nice wallpapers.

--------------------

It's not going to replace Nova Pro for sheer configurability, but then, it's difficult to imagine any Launcher that could!

It's functional minimalism has a certain appeal/charm, and I think I'm going to stick with it for a while, not least because of some of the excellent wallpapers available via it.

Thanks to [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] for making it available. Great job.

Rgrds,

Ged.

Has anyone figured out why there it's frosted on the bottom of the UI? Is it because I didn't use the flash method?
[Android Apps and Games] Empty Hand:
I read somewhere that the frosted UI only appears if you are running Android N.
[Android Apps and Games] Won't be druv:
Yes they are massive. Even changing the screen resolution natively on android n leaves the icons a reasonable size but the text too small. Changing the text size through accessibility makes the text too large. The icons are simply massive to start with. I wonder why?
[Android Apps and Games] fmc000:
Same device, different ROM (SlimSaber 6.0.1), same result. Amazing launcher!
[Android Apps and Games] iaTa:

Does any one tried it Huawei shot x running lollipop 5.1.1 ?

[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Apparently you need to be running Marshmallow or higher.

---EDIT---

Sorry, scratch that. It's nothing to do with Lollipop.

I've just installed the NexusLauncher APK on my ageing Nexus 7 2012 also running Lollipop 5.1.1 and it works.

So I'm not sure what the problem could be with your Huawei.

---------- Post added at 12:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 AM ----------

I believe that when using this launcher you need to have Google Calendar installed for the desktop date to work properly.
[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Hi, guys...

Regarding the stuck date widget problem.

It's just recently turned midnight Sunday 7th August here in the UK... And like others have reported, the Date Widget has not updated to reflect this fact.

Both my Nexus 9 tablet and my HTC One M8 phone thinks it's still Saturday 6th August.

---------------

However... I've discovered that if you simply rotate your device from portrait to landscape and back again, the widget will redraw with the correct date. No need to reboot the device or force-stop the launcher.

You must have the "Allow Homescreen Rotation" setting enabled for this to work. Long press the Nexus Launcher homescreen to access it's settings.

Hope this is of some use.

Rgrds,

Ged.

The Google search when you swipe to the left side of the screen doesn't work for me. Using Nexus 5x stock room but rooted. I installed the APK files rather than flashing it in TWRP, would this be why?
[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Hi, The1nonly1...

Yep. That would indeed be the reason why.

The NexusLauncher APK need to be in /system to allow access to Google Now.

If you're rooted, and you're comfortable manually pushing the files, you can you use a root capable Android file manager, and copy the APKs to their respective locations...

/system/priv-app/NexusLauncherPrebuilt

/system/app/WallpaperPickerGooglePrebuilt

...and set the correct permissions.

It's just a whole lot easier (and safer!) to simply flash the package via TWRP.

Rgrds,

Ged.
[Android Apps and Games] The1nonly1:
Thanks. I'll uninstall and flash with TWRP.
[Android Apps and Games] LuPoM:
It may feel like a bit of a noob question, but can I flash the zip on my unrooted stock Nexus 6?

Edit: tried looking around, without finding anything specific.

I love the launcher and would like to keep the swipe to left google functionality.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Hi, LuPoM...

Root is arguably less important than having a Custom Recovery (such as TWRP) installed... however, people whose devices have TWRP installed generally tend to also be rooted.

------------------------------------------

This is actually an interesting question, because I notice that opening the Leaked_NexusLauncher.zip with a zip app, it appears to be digitally signed by Google.

See screenshot attachment at the end of this post.

Now, whether this means it could be theoretically flashed via your devices Stock Recovery, I really don't know.

My gut instinct says... Probably not. I haven't been near a Stock Recovery on any device for quite a while, so I'm not sure if it's possible.

So, I suspect you'll need a Custom Recovery installed, or know how to remote boot TWRP from a PC/laptop with fastboot (eg. fastboot boot <NAME_OF_TWRP_FILE.IMG>). Either of which will necessitate unlocking your devices bootloader, and the consequent factory reset of your device - ie., it will wipe everything you have stored on the internal storage.

------------------------------------------

If you're 100% factory stock, with a locked bootloader, no root and Stock Recovery, and wish to keep your device that way... then your only hope is if it's installable via your devices Stock Recovery, which **may** be possible because the zip, as I've said, does appear to be digitally signed by Google.

However, it should be noted, and that if it is possible... then without root access, you'll have no way of uninstalling/removing it later, if you decide you don't like it or if it causes unforeseen problems.

You'll be stuck with it!!

------------------------------------------

One final point... Flashing anything to /system or modifying /system in anyway will prevent future OTA system updates installing on your device.

This doesn't matter so much if you're device isn't scheduled to receive further OTAs from Google or you know how to restore your device back to unmodified stock, either with a previously created Nandroid backup or using fastboot to flash a Nexus 6 Factory Image.

Hope this helps.

Rgrds,

Ged.
[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Bit of an update to this...

If you have a clock widget on the same homescreen as the date widget, as midnight rolls around and as the clock widget flips over from 23:59 to 00:00, the date widget seems to update correctly.

---------------------------------

As last midnight approached, I had my HTC One M8 phone and my Nexus 9 tablet, sitting side by side.

Both devices running this launcher, and both with the

Digital Clock Widget Xperia

installed.

But it was only my M8 that had the clock widget dropped onto the primary homescreen... And it was only my M8 that correctly updated the date widget at exactly midnight.

The Nexus 9 stubbornly refused to update the date widget... until I rotated it to landscape and back again to portrait, forcing a screen redraw.

Whilst I haven't tested it, I suspect this should work for any clock widget, not just the Xperia one.

This might explain why some people haven't experienced this problem... If they routinely have a clock widget on the homescreen.

Rgrds,

Ged.

How to Uninstall it

Please tell me the procedure to uninstall it , if i flash the .zip file ?
[Android Apps and Games] GedBlake:
Hi, Richadali...

You'll obviously need to be rooted, and you'll also need a root capable Android file manager installed, such as ES File Manager or X-plore File Manager... Both available in Google Play Store.

Some root capable file managers need to be set as Mount-Writable (in it's settings) or the equivalent, to allow changes to /system.

And then it's just a simple matter of locating two folders, in two locations, and deleting them and their contents.

These are....

/system/priv-app/NexusLauncherPrebuilt

/system/app/WallpaperPickerGooglePrebuilt

See screenshot attachments at the end of this post.

Then reboot your device.

[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] macallik:
I remember during the Idol 3 launch that there were issues initially (DTTW not working, snapchat bugs, etc) that were addressed in subsequent updates. These things were swept under the rug for reviewers but for people who actually owned the phone, they were able to benefit.

Currently my main concern is the camera and I was curious if anyone has heard any news on Alcatel working to try and improve the OIS or low-light capabilities via software (if that is even possible).
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
I don't have this exactly device, but I have the twin brother (Vodafone Smart Platinum 7) and I wrote to a Vodafone customer manager about this.

They told me they will talk with the people in the software department, and maybe in a future they can improve a little the software, but the lack of hardware can't be fixed with software.

My main complain was that the photos most of the time are blurry when trying to see the details, and that we have no stabilization for 60fps and 2K-4K.

;)
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] macallik:
Thanks. I've heard good things about the Vodafone version. I currently have the Idol 3, and coming from the Nexus 4 before that, it was a big improvement in terms of photo quality. I've been using my Idol 3 for photos a lot recently and although it is great for well-lit, non-moving objects, I have become more aware of the lower quality pics in low-light and blurry pics in general when there is slight movement. I think the Idol 4S is a step up in terms of quality but still leaves something to be desired overall.

Recently I ended up getting a reasonably-priced digital camera which takes great photos. It really illustrated how good a camera can be. I might just get the Idol 4S and carry my digital camera with me for special occasions.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] gee2012:
Updated yesterday to version 010 02 with the august security patches with the Mobile Upgrade Q desktop programm. Camera seems better imo opinion (at least with sufficient light!) and overall performance seems faster and snappier then before. Caution: upgrading with Q will flash the whole rom and wipes the device!. Idol 4S 6070K Netherlands. Realy love the devices`s performance and especialy the great speakers :)
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] macallik:
Saw a video review with a blind comparison to the S7 for photos/videos.

Lowlight is pretty meh and video bounces around a lot, but the well lit areas really give the S7 a run for it's money.

It sounds like the key to using the camera is A) Good lighting and B)Keep a steady hand
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
Pretty much is about the steady hand, because with this you can make nice pictures.

I attach some pictures I made with the phone.
