How to enable app shortcut ? it only shows widget & app info, i've grant all permission but nothing change

Can I just ask how you managed to force enable the search bar in the app drawer? Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] paphonb:
Assuming you're on 7.1+, just set it as default launcher and shortcuts will work.

Some smali editing and a little bit knowledge of how numbers are stored.

Use Titanium Backup to backup the data from 3.2. Uninstall 3.2. Install 4.0.3. Use Titanium Backup to restore data-only to 4.0.3. Done.

[Android Apps and Games] osm0sis:
It's not happening here and nobody has reported anything like that before. So if there's something real happening it should show up in your logcat. Probably still not this launcher, but it'll be there.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Using a HTC One M9 running android 8.1 with this launcher, nova and the sense launcher installed and that doesn't get hot at all.

I've never ever heard of a launcher making a device get hot.......:eek:

I doubt this launcher would cause that because every HTC owner would be complaining and they are not.:eek:

If something is making your device hot, provide proper logs so someone can help you properly, and don't be so quick to blame this launcher for doing something its not likely to be capable of......

Google search "how to take an android logcat" provide the logs as requested and someone will tell you what the problem is.

[Android Apps and Games] p4l0m0_01:
Sorry. Sure you are right an it's another process causing that. It wasn't my intention neither to blame this launcher nor the work of anyone. First thing i have done when i downloaded it was give thanks. [emoji120]
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Don't blame the "bloody" launcher.........

Its been posted all over this thread for over two weeks or more that the developers laptop suffered a failure and the newer versions of this launcher had a different signing to the older versions of this launcher.

It's was also mentioned hundreds of times you would loose data and set up information updating from the older version of this launcher to the newer version of this launcher.

If you didn't know that or you failed to read those warnings, that's on you, not the bloody launcher.

It was explained to you how to update this without loosing your data and you chose to do something different and ignore that advice, without using the suggested app or rooting your device (which are the only known ways of updating this launcher without loosing your set up data)

So, you can be angry, but you can only be angry with yourself.

You have no one to blame for losing your data only yourself, and what you did is on you, not this bloody launcher.

FYI

If you think we going to sit back and let you swear about this launcher, you are wrong.

How you have the audacity to ignore the given advice and do your own thing and then try to blame the launcher is beyond me :eek:

Do the right thing now.

Apologize to the developer for your tantrum, and I suggest when people try to help you and make suggestions, don't be so quick to rush off and do your own thing as it usually ends in tears.

[Android Apps and Games] stavros3006:
Great job on the launcher!

Any chance to make the app scrollbar follow the phone's default accent color? Right now on my Nexus 6P the scrollbar in the app drawer is Pixel blue, but in the widget picker it goes back to the default Nexus green.

Also, any chance to make the icons slightly bigger? On the 6P they look really tiny with large spacing between them (on the Pixel the screen ratio is 18:9, so kinda makes sense) but on a 16:9 ratio it looks like unused space.

[Android Apps and Games] Stampyron:
Why won't these people search? I've said before, the widget picker DOES NOThave anything to do with the launcher, it's your ROM!

---------- Post added at 02:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------

How do you fix a bug when you don't give any information??
[Android Apps and Games] osm0sis:
This can't be entirely true, since the "Use dark theme" Customization affects it, and in fact with the dark theme the scroll bar is Pixel blue, so it being AOSP green with the light theme does appear to be an oversight that [MENTION=6018897]paphonb[/MENTION] could correct. :good:

[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Xperia E5 (android 6.0) and Xperia L1 (android 7.1.1) doesn't crash when pressing search apps in app draw.

So theres no bug to fix.......
[Android Apps and Games] osm0sis:
Ah, lucky, not so on my OP5T on OOS OB3 where it's AOSP green. So the launcher must pull the accent color from the ROM, but still is able to modify it since dark theme makes it Pixel blue as I said. Definitely something that could be looked into. :good:

[Android Apps and Games] rtimoff:
I have used this launcher from beginning on Z5 Compact, now I using it on my XZ1 Compact. No problems at all. Thanks for your work!
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
That attitude is acceptable when hundreds of users are posting repetitive and unnecessary questions in this thread over and over and over again, without searching the thread, reading a few previous comments or reading a few previous pages of the thread before posting.

We have all tried to be polite and say stuff like "sorry, that's already been asked and it's not happening" or "the development team explained that on comment number xxx if you care to check"

All of which is proof that....

1. No one is reading previous comments before commenting.

2. No one is checking the last few pages of the thread before commenting.

3. No one is reading the OP.

4. No one is using the XDA search facility.

5. Worst of all, people are now posting in this thread as they are confusing this pixel launcher with another pixel launcher by someone else that has icon pack support and other features this one doesn't have, so proof that people are not even checking they are even posting in the correct thread before they post!!

6. Users are getting quite angry when told their questions have been answered around 4500 times in this thread already....There's no need for that attitude either, they are the ones who haven't bothered to search before posting.

7. I'm sorry but I even lost all ability to be polite to someone who's going to post two comments after this post if this launcher can have icon pack support.

8. Icon pack support has been requested 8 times on every page of this thread!!!! Since the very first comment :eek::eek::eek:
[Android Apps and Games] AxiK.:
There other ports out there supporting icon packs. Search already

shortcuts and adaptive icons dont work on my moto g4 running stock 7.0
[Android Apps and Games] Lurensu:
Obviously they don't, shortcuts require android 7.1 (api level 25). We live in 2018, you can search on google.

Never seen so many lazy people as on this thread
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
App Shortcuts require android 7.1 minimum. :eek:

You obviously would rather make yourself look silly and moan about this launcher rather than make a quick Google search to check if shortcuts work on your android 7.0 device?

Oh dear.:eek:

You don't need to be an android expert to know those things, and it's very simple to check, which you obviously havent done.

I've been kind enough to give you some Information about app shortcuts, to save you making yourself look silly in the future

Is there a way to force adaptive icons in old app icons like nova launcher does? I'm on android 8.1

Some icons have round icon shape but they can't be a square, squircle, teardrop, etc like the others
[Android Apps and Games] DeeStyles:
I'm beginning to think people are posting about Icon Pack Support on every page to troll and rile everyone up who says stop asking. I have a hard time believing that anyone who wants to customize their phone won't read through comments on a thread to ensure they don't risk needing a factory reset or bricking their phones if there is a known issue for their phone/ROM.

Then again... Common sense isn't very common these days...
[Android Apps and Games] krisu253:
[MENTION=6018897]paphonb[/MENTION]

Is it possible to implement a fix that will prevent apps which aren't supporting adaptive style from being wrapped in white boxes? I tried to decompile the app and fix it myself but failed. Also if you don't want to do it could you tell me how to do it myself?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Yeah, I agree. I love this launcher, it's smooth and stable. But after updating to Oreo, some apps have double white border which look bad. Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] Lurensu:
If you're rooted with magisk you can install the "adaptive icons round mask" module.

[Android Apps and Games] stavros3006:
I've been active on many threads on many forums for the last 12+ years, around 8 years on XDA only, I know how searching a thread works. But when that search doesn't give any relevant feedback, I try to post it again by giving a bit more detail than the previous posters on the matter.

What XDA in particular has been suffering from throughout the years were always the "developer advocates" that jump into slaying people who ask questions with irrelevant info such as "do not ask for ETAs!", "it's a free app, if you don't like it go somewhere else" and what not else.

As for my questions, for the scrollbar issue, I did try first Amir's launcher and on that one both the app drawer's and the widget drawer's scrollbars were Pixel blue, ignoring my Nexus' green accent color, so it means it can be controlled. For the icon scaling issue, hundreds of people have mistaken it for requesting custom icon packs, completely missing the point.

I never post anything ludacris besides suggestions that would make apps look more polished and professional no matter how free they are.

[Android Apps and Games] Stampyron:
There are reasons why people "jump into slaying people". One of the reasons is because some people try to be helpful, but give wrong information because either they don't fully understand the question, or they thought the issue posted by someone was the same issue they knew, but actually it's only similar, so they get confused.

As for the widget scrollbar being green, I admit that I honestly thought it was because of the ROM as some ROMs follow AOSP green accent and some ROMs follow pixel blue accent so I thought it was because of that.

The weather not working in at a glance......

Extensively tested on six Android devices and only one device (Samsung A5 2015 running Android 6.0.1) does not display the weather.

But

I have found this IS NOT an issue with this little launcher.

The weather also doesn't work on the Amir pixel launcher, the other rootless pixel launcher, the AOSP launcher 3 launcher and lean launcher, which is based on Amir's pixel launcher.

So the weather refuses to work on that device alone, and works perfectly fine on other Android 6.0 devices.

Just something I felt I should share and be made known to others facing similar problems who might assume this is a launcher issue, now proved otherwise.

Please see my screenshot below.

[Android Apps and Games] kopitalk:
I notice the weather info has got nothing to do with the launcher, but all to do with the Google app. I didn't give any permission to the launcher, but set everything right to the Google app, and my weather info is updated accordingly.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Thank you for your reply, and that's the reason I made this comment.

I've done all those settings, and it works fine on five other devices, just not this Samsung.

All devices have the same Google app, same permissions, same settings.

The only reason I tried the other launchers is to see what result I got, and on the Samsung, it doesn't work at all.

Now I'm no expert, but that tells me if it's not working on the other launchers as well as this one, then it's something amiss with that device, rather that a Google app or launcher issue which others keep complaining about, which as you quite rightly pointed out, is nothing to do with this launcher...........

[Android Apps and Games] x2k13:
Root your phone and replace the default launcher with this one (or any of the various forks). Make sure you can revert that procedure if needed (backup...). And AFAIK this launcher doesn't have that option, amirzaidi's and lean launcher (which is a fork of amirzaidi's) have it, though.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
There's plenty of information in this thread about what to do if you have a pixel launcher already installed, and unfortunately there is no option to remove the search bar on this launcher, but you can on other "pixel" launchers that are available.

I suggest just having a browse of this threads last few pages as all the information you are asking has been asked and answered many times already - what you are asking is some of the most regular asked questions in this thread.

The developer isn't adding icon pack support to this launcher.

There are other pixel launchers that you can add icon packs to, but not this one.

This is answered like on every page of this thread, if you care to look.

Now I think my comments a few pages back were totally justified, and I also said after that comment someone would post asking for icon pack support.

Read and search before posting.
