[Q] LawnChair v2 [ Folders / Icons ? ]

I am running the latest version of LawnChair and really like it. I been a Nova user for 2 years ... My only issue is I can not find any way to change the ICON of a FOLDER on the home screen. In Nova you just click/hold the folder and then you can change the name and the ICON, but with LawnChair I can only change the name not the icon. I know I can change the Global theme, but I want to change the ICON to a personal icon I have.

Any thoughts or workarounds ?
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
Open folder, press 3 dots, press icon (above name), choose your icon.
[Android Apps and Games] Thibor69:
THANK YOU !! I have been searching for hours LOL ... great :)

Any way/version (alpha or beta) to make the Android 10 full gestures work on non Pixel devices? I'm using a Nokia 8.1 running Android 10 stable

[Q] Question #2 about folders.

Is there any way to get a

FOLDER

that is in my drawer, moved out to my

HOME

screen ? .. OR .. maybe a way to create a shortcut on my

HOME

screen that points to that folder in my Drawer ? - - Currently I have my drawer full of folders that all hold the icons to my apps, But

I would like to move one of those folders out to the desktop for easier access.

Thanks for any insight.

This launcher support vertical homesceens?
[Android Apps and Games] Boskoel03:
Nope.. yet
[Android Apps and Games] Jimmmycrackcorn:
Sorry if this has been asked and answered....tried looking but didn't find it.

But is there a way to add more pages to the home screens? I can't swipe right to access more screens.....and I can't add screens.

Please help!

Can anyone give me an invitation link to the Telegram Lawnchair Beta group?

#Nevermind #IamIdiot #FirstPost #Sorry
[Android Apps and Games] Meannekes:
Just Push the App Icon or Widget to the right Edge of the Screen and wait a moment. It will create a nee page
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Looks like its time for the half hourly update to let everyone know that;

1. There is currently no weather widget.

2. There is currently no landscape mode.

3. Deletescape and a few other devs are working on it.

4. If you haven't updated to one of the new beta builds, you should. The lag is gone and there is blur for days.

Thank you for the 6 people who bother to read this. If someone posts asking for one of these things feel free to quote me in a reply to their post.
[Android Apps and Games] twc561:
Is there a build beyond 255? If so, could you send a link.
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Latest beta is 653 and you can get it on telegram Lawnchair CI

https://t.me/lawnchairci
[Android Apps and Games] Legitsu:
how about some all-apps color options some of use like it black
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Search the thread. It is coming in an upcoming release.

—————Who am I doing this for, hey me or you? ————
[Android Apps and Games] velayo:
Is that a Misfits quote?
[Android Apps and Games] sancamcal:
Can anyone upload the latest beta? Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
No. Make a telegram account and get it there or wait till official release.
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Been using 255 as daily driver. Love it.

Problem: More than occasionally, when I unlock my device, have "Launchair has stopped ... " Attempts to "report" do nothing.

Will try beta:

Hint: Somebody (with permission to do so) please upload to apkmirror. Would be of help!
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
The builds get automatically pushed to telegram nobody is uploading them anywhere else. Can everyone stop asking please? If you dont want to make a telegram just wait for the build to be uploaded to XDA Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Of course...

Thanks for this launcher with Sweet Customisations.. This might be the 1st launcher to give notification support like android o on 7.1.2...great job!!
[Android Apps and Games] le0.br4zuc4:
Is there a way to change a single app's icon? I found a the icon pack support but I'd like to change icons on the per app basis.
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Not a5 the moment.
[Android Apps and Games] skiely666:
I'm on the beta. Does anyone know where I can find a change log for it?
[Android Apps and Games] KapilKhandelwal:
Okay. Thank you

Just out of curiosity, are there any plans to make it compatible with Quickstep as well (since it's the default for all Android One devices)?

If yes, great! If not, still a great launcher. Thanks again :)
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Wat. QuickSwitch doesn't add support for launchers. If a launcher supports being the recents provider it'll be able to be set via QuickSwitch
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
does to someone work Google feed on huawei 9.1? I've installed lawnchfeed, restart the device, terminated all the lawnch service, also the Google app, restart. It still doesn't work with the swipe on the left. Someone call help me?
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Have you enabled the feed page in lawnchair settings / plug ins?

Have you removed lawnfeed from EMUIs battery optimisations?

Yes, the Google feed works with EMUI 9.1 if you do those steps
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
Thanks.. yes I've do it.

But nothing!

Also don't work Google feed if I put it on a shortcut from a singol icon app.

:crying:
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Here I have Honor 8X EMUI 9.1 (UK version) Google feed works perfectly well

Did you ask the lawnchair Devs on Telegram?
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
No i Will search that channel

Edit: solved installing pixel bridge v.3

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] tarroyo:
How would I access extended settings in lawn chair??? When long pressing on a icon, I only see 'app info" as a option.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
Unlock your desktop
[Android Apps and Games] lmservas:
Per the changelog/description for the latest v2 release Lawnchair is now compatible with Homefeeder but I cannot find any way to enable it in Lawnchair or in Homefeeder settings. Please advise!! Thx!
[Android Apps and Games] tarroyo:
Where is this setting exactly? This is my first time using Lawnchair
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
In the launcher home settings.

Long press on any empty space on your home screen to bring up the home settings pop up.

Once in settings, type "desktop" in the search bar at the top.
[Android Apps and Games] KapilKhandelwal:
Oh okay. Sorry I wasn't aware of that. So there's no way I can use the full Android 10 gestures with Lawnchair if my phone uses Quickstep and not QuickSwitch by default? Now or in the future? Just clarifying it for myself. Thanks again for your responses
[Android Apps and Games] cyberon:
Does anyone know if it's possible to fix the bad/clunky animation of Pixel decices running Android 10 December update?
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
QuickSwitch isn't a launcher. It's a module which allows you to change which launcher is the recents provider. You can use the gestures if you're on the Android 10 December update but the third party support for them isn't great, QuickSwitch is always recommend for the best gesture experience.

You gotta use QuickSwitch if you want them to be smoother.
[Android Apps and Games] cyberon:
Looks like Google is trying to get people away from other launchers on purpose, what a mess...
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Idk, I assume the third party gesture support will be better come Android R.
[Android Apps and Games] KapilKhandelwal:
I just searched Quickswitch here on XDA Labs to read about it and guess who the OP was ??

Guess I should've done my homework before asking on this thread. Lesson learnt ?

I don't know anything about rooting or flashing (I could be using these terms wrongly. That would explain why I was making little sense during this conversation). So I'll stay away from it for now. Just want to thank you and other developers here on XDA for your work. Really makes life easy for us. Also thanks for your patience. Good luck sir! ?
[Android Apps and Games] beren:
sorry if has been asked already...

from the gesture menu--> home button i can't find "app search" as option since last two updates, has been removed or it's a bug?

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] deepdvd:
Will someone that has a Telegram account please put this HomeFeeder .apk file somewhere I can download it? t.me/homefeeder/17
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Haha no worries.

Yea if you don't have much experience I'd recommend staying away from it untill you're comfortable researching it before diving in as it can be difficult and overwhelming for new comers.

If you do ever decide to give it a go though it is real fun.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
The only workaround I can think of is to manually drag the individual icons to home screen then create a new folder there by merging them.

My understanding is that in the app drawer, the "folders" are controlled by the "categories" settings, where user manually adds app to it. So I guess that makes it impossible to drag the "folder" out to home screen.
[Android Apps and Games] goviin:
Is there horizontal scrolling in app drawer?

And a dedicated icon on the desktop for opening app drawer ? (Like nova action widget icon)
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
No and yes there is a lawnchair action to open app draw (widgets / lawnchair action)

No idea if horizontal scrolling app draw is going to be added in the future.
[Android Apps and Games] arjun231291:
Swipe to back from left or right is not working on app drawer on my Android 10 OP7PRO
[Android Apps and Games] Thibor69:
Ah yes you are 100% correct. Thank you for the feedback !!

.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
You're most welcome! Happy to be of help.

Cheers!

3rd party launchers are now work with Android 10 full gestures after Dec updates. I m using playstore version of lawn chair with full gestures didn't see any issues...:)
[Android Apps and Games] drzak:
Im a little confused im on pre alpha 2.0 2546 ..

I dont understand where to get the updates because on apk mirror there's v2 and 2.0 whats the difference ..also when i installed the beta from the playstore it installed as another app im confused
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
You can join the Telegram group listed in OP. There's a link to their download channel.
[Android Apps and Games] KapilKhandelwal:
Agreed ??
[Android Apps and Games] drzak:
Is there actually 2 releases ?

Like v2 and 2.0 or im understanding wrong
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Previously it was v2 and I think it was changed to Lawnchair 2 I think.

I've always been side installing from the Telegram channel so didn't really pay attention to the Play Store listing.
[Android Apps and Games] the_Pan:
I would appreciate an F-Droid version too. :svetius:
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Why would you want lawn chair on fdroid? Have a look on telegram for librechair. Better chance of that going on fdroid than lawnchair
[Android Apps and Games] the_Pan:
Are you a guy from librechair team? If so, please open an fdroid repo for it.

I tried librechair already, but the sometimes ~12 updates a day via telegram let me change back to lawnchair v2 again for now. I really don't like this telegram-group thingy for everyhting.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
No I don't have anything to do with librechair. And also there is another telegram group which has daily updates to librechair not a lot every day. You also don't need to update to every version, if it works why would you update that regularly. Something about people just wanting to be on the latest version of everything is a head scratcher for me
[Android Apps and Games] the_Pan:
So maybe I'm on the wrong channel, could you please post the link?
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
I'll pm because I don't think it is in compliance with XDA rules to post here
[Android Apps and Games] tarroyo:
Unlocking desktop doesn't show me extended settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
Hm, when I unlock desktop I have it like this...

When is locked I have only that app info icon, as you said, so if you looking for something else as the pen icon, then I probably misunderstood your question...
[Android Apps and Games] Roydpeter:
To any developer who might see this. Please add this feature to the search bar(see my screenshot).

It's 3 options. Recentlyupdated/New/Frequently used apps tab on the search bar in the drawer. Like how Nova does it.

That way, A person can access the newly installed apps or recently updated apps by just trying to search the app from the app drawer.
[Android Apps and Games] Deaddbear:
Does anyone know how the homefeeder app is supposed to work? I have installed both homefeeder and lawnfeed apps as explained in the Play Store description, but I cannot find any way to enable homefeeder in lawnchair settings. The only option is to display Google feed.
[Android Apps and Games] Maxbmwe53:
Hi! The search bar in the dock keeps going square after i set corner radius to make it round. Is this a bug?
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
It should be in integration settings.
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
I don't have integration tab, i'm using the Google play versione!
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
You in the beta channel?
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
Nope. I use the 2.0.2589 version.
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Send a screenshot of lawnchair settings please.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
May be under Plugins
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
Thanks!

Tried Lawnchair on and off and couldn't get used to the few things missing from Nova. Now it seems that Nova is pretty abandoned and will not fix their glitchy bugs with Android 10 gestures, so I've been using Lawnchair for a day and am really getting used to it. Some questions I can't find answers to in this thread or via google...

1. Is there a way to perform what quickswitch does with adb commands alone? Not rooted and haven't rooted since Nexus 5.

2. Can someone just post the download channel location? I don't use telegram so have been getting alpha builds from apkmirror.

3. Is there a place where future features are listed/ranked outside of telegram? Mostly missing some Nova folder actions.

4. Can someone direct me to the homefeed xda thread or maybe just give me a hint as to what it does? Their site has minimal info, I can't find an apk download location and I'm curious if it's worth exploring.

Overall, I'm really liking Lawnchair now. I thought that the gestural jank was due to Google, but it's just Nova's ancient codebase not working right...Lawnchair is pretty smooth with gestures.
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Ohh it's worded differently for your local. Weird that the option isn't there, I'll let the devs know.

1. Unfortunately there isn't a way to get QuickSwitch functionality without root. I've definitely tried to see if it's possible believe me, but it requires overlaying frameworks which you need to place in /vendor or /product

2. apkmirror is the best place to get new builds outside of Telegram.

3. Like an upcoming feature list? Currently we don't have one, it's just Till and Paphon implementing features back from V1 and V2 from before the q merge and adding in features as they think of them.

4. I don't believe there is an XDA thread but I can shoot you the apk.
[Android Apps and Games] el_smurfo:
Can you give me a quick idea of what this is? I don't see any descriptions other than "modified google feed"...I installed, enabled all permissions, added as the feed provider in Lawnchair and I just get a big white screen that says "Notifications" with a settings gear. I rebooted and same.
[Android Apps and Games] Maxbmwe53:
Everybody is getting this ugly search bar desing??
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
That's Google problem, not a lawn chair problem.

Install the pixel bridge APK and that should fix the issue.

If you have a device that won't let you install the pixel bridge (like me) then simply install the aidl bridge APK
[Android Apps and Games] Notorius bunty:
I have installed this homefeeder.apk nd using playstore version of lawnchair but no option in plugins to activate this homefeeder instead of google feed dont know what is the work of this homefeeder nd cant replace google feed with this homefeeder?
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
Yea it's essentially a notification list. Kinda similar to iOS. I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] Maxbmwe53:
Pixel bridge worked like a charm! Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
I had to install the aidl bridge, but the search is still white, do I have to do something more, change some setting?
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Mine stays white, it doesn't go dark (aidl bridge) I've not changed any settings or am I aware of any settings that should be changed??? ?

Edit, I'm using a Nokia 2.2 on Android One pie if that makes any difference?
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
OK, thanks.

I was hoping it will be dark, it looks better. But it is not a big deal... I only was not sure if I missed something.

I have Nokia 6.1 with same Android One Pie.
[Android Apps and Games] Skittles9823:
I checked with deletescape and turns out custom feed stuff isn't in the playstore version yet.

It's in our q merge builds though.
[Android Apps and Games] tomaasz:
Hi, thanks for great launcher.

Are you able to add support for display:

- last used apps

- last installed apps

- last updated apps

?

[Android Apps and Games] ajsat3801:
As far as I know, systemwide darkmode is and Android 10 feature.... So I don't think it would work with pie...
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
The issue being discussed is nothing to do with system wide dark mode or android 10......…

Google's search page you open after pressing the search bar in lawn chair is most dark with white text on pie (regardless of system settings) - but it doesn't stay dark.

Sometimes it's white with white text, other times it's dark with dark text even.

Happens on Oreo, pie and android 10.

As explained earlier in the thread, this was a Google mess up on some server side updates that's never been properly fixed :(
[Android Apps and Games] continua.mente:
Good job with this launcher!

I have a request: is it possible to separate the app label settings in the home from those in the folders?

I like to hide the labels under the icons in the home, but I find convenient to have the labels inside the folders.

I collect Google Crome shortcuts in various folders and without the labels it is impossible for me to distinguish between the various shortcuts.

This function was possible in CPL, customized pixel launcher.

Can you see the difference?
[Android Apps and Games] warsaw79:
With full gestures enabled on android 10 i'm having an issue where you can't swipe up from the dock to get to recent apps at all. This also effects home swiping as well. It just does nothing when swiping from the dock. Didn't gesture support get enabled with the dec security patch on android 10 or did I hear that wrong? I'm on a pixel2xl.
[Android Apps and Games] SpaceGooner:
Since Google Fit's latest update, all Fit widgets are no longer working with Lawnchair (Lawnchair's latest Play store version). However they're still working fine with all other launchers I've tried, so it seems the incompatibility is in Lawnchair somewhere.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Android Apps and Games] el_smurfo:
It works, but it's still a bit broken. To get to recents, slide slowly up from the "pill" and stop in the center of the screen.
[Android Apps and Games] warsaw79:
ok thanks, I'll switch over to the pill until this functionality is working on full gestures. at least we know it's possible now.
[Android Apps and Games] munstey7:
I switched from the lawnchair V2 beta APK to the play store version and now lawnfeed doesn't work. It's enabled, I reinstalled the nevest version as well. Is there any way to fix it?
[Android Apps and Games] r30857:
Try install Lawnfeed, it should be work after you done

it!

And you can find the download link from play store
[Android Apps and Games] munstey7:
I have it, still doesn't work
[Android Apps and Games] r30857:
Do you have Google in your system?

I recall it need Google app to make the Lawnfeed work!
[Android Apps and Games] drugo732:
it doesn't work for me either. have advised me and works pixel bridge v.3!
[Android Apps and Games] munstey7:
Yes
[Android Apps and Games] munstey7:
Yeah I tried pixelbridge v3 and now it works
[Android Apps and Games] nighthowl:
Awesome APP!

Yes I seem to have the same problem. But the error "problem loading widget" doesn't seem to be unique to Lawnchair if you do a Google search. Although the suggested solutions don't seem to work also.

I just searched on the telegram channel. It is already reported as a known issue.
[Android Apps and Games] J_E_F_F:
I have (2) Samsing A10e phones that I am giving my inlaws, I have set them up the same, both are on the latest Android 9 release for that phone, and both have the latest playstore lawnchair v2 and lawnfeed enabled.

On one phone, the At a Glance widget shows the weather, and the other does not. All settings within lawnchair are the same. I have ensured location is enabled in the google app. I have also installed the latest lawnchair beta (a few days more recent than the playstore version) and it has the same problem, so I reverted back to the play store version. If I change the At a Glance Weather Source from Google App to Accuweather, I do get a weather display, but it is not for the current location, and it does not update. Any idea what I can check next?
[Android Apps and Games] ertank07:
lawnchair ,instagram story don't show photos and gallery picture. I removed the lawnchair program and it improved.

I spent hours. how they do not see such error.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
What exactly is the problem? Lawnchair should not effect Instagram in any way
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Lawnchair has nothing to do with Instagram

I use Instagram.

I use lawnchair V2 - and Instagram works perfectly fine when launched from lawnchair.

Coming here making a bold claim that your version of lawnchair is breaking your Instagram is a very bold claim to make - but one you should not make without an explanation and back up your claim with proof.

Just saying bad things about the launcher or development team is no proof at all.

Just use your brain logically for a second.......If lawnchair was REALLY breaking Instagram then many many more people would be reporting this issue.

Unfortunately for you, no one else has reported anything similar..........

In Desktop Settings, Hide Status Bar only works for

the Home Screen, and not when you are in the apps.

Hiding the Status Bar everywhere will be brilliant

It makes the desktop bigger in the apps
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
That's not something lawnchair would not be able to do - as third party launchers are "home screen replacement apps" that only work on the home screen, they have no control over "other apps"

You should look at third party status bar hiding apps, there are several available like this one

[Android Apps and Games] SpaceGooner:
Really loving the Lawnchair experience on my OnePlus 7T. Best third party launcher out there by far imho and I've been through many many launchers over the years (who remembers the days of ADW Launcher or SBP Shell?)

Just one new feature request from me - it would be great if we could change the text size of the At A Glance widget. The current fixed size is maybe a little small don't you think?

Otherwise many thanks devs for your great work.
