FYI

The date and weather works fine in this launcher on 6.0 MM.

The "bug" in 6.0 was fixed several releases ago, so I assume you have either not given google calendar or this launcher correct permissions to view the date or weather.

I can confirm I've just checked on 4 different 6.0 devices, date and weather working correctly.
[Android Apps and Games] Ash225:
Yes you are right but i am using miui 9 based on android 6.0.1 in my redmi 3s and its not working i will attach ss for the same
[Android Apps and Games] Micjmiu:
Weather status not shown

I am currently using a Xiaomi Mi 5x with version 4.0.2 which was working perfectly fine until last week or so when it stopped showing the weather status. Updating it to 4.0.3 still have not rectified this issue. I have enabled all necessary permissions however, I could be wrong in this but I highly doubt I missed a crucial permission. Has this affected anyone else ?

In addition, I am having a real issue with my wallpaper as I have to crop it before setting it as my wallpaper. Once set and chosen, it only takes a few hours before it explodes and I have to swipe to the next screen to see the rest of the wall paper when it should be only on one. Is anyone else encountering this bug as well ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Its been mentioned that you must give this launcher the correct permissions in google calendar and the google app for the date and weather to work.

The "bug" in android 6.0 has already been fixed two versions ago, so I assume your permissions are not granted correctly.

I've also tested this on my three kids devices (all on 6.0) and date and weather working correctly.

Goto device settings.

Apps

Google

Select all permissions.

Goto google app.

Open it.

Press the three dots in corner.

Goto settings.

Widget.

Turn weather on and off and back on again.

Reboot device

Now should work.

I trust you on these but i have granted all the available permission to this launcher google apps and calender but its not working for me
[Android Apps and Games] CharlieMHz:
First I want to thank OP for making this launcher, I really love it!

However there's one little bug for me, which is that whenever I try to turn off "Force round icons" in "Customizations" the launcher just crashes and restarts, and nothing changes. Some apps still have that adaptive icon white background around the app icon.

I'm using a Redmi Note 3 on Nitrogen OS Oreo

Did you give all permissions to the launcher? If you did, then did you turn on location?:silly:
[Android Apps and Games] knjigo:
This is a great launcher and I like it a lot.

The problem is that some apps disappeare from main screen and from app drawer after rebooting my phone.

It would be nice if someone could fix this
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
It would be great if you gave an indication of what device and android version you have, or do you expect us to try to help/advise you by guessing what device/android version you have?

Do you honestly expect the dev to fix that problem if he doesn't know what device or android version you have?

FYI

I have five different devices here, various android versions and I've never seen apps just disappear from the desktop or app draw. Ever.

I'm not dissmissing your report, but come on........

Help us to help you and give us something to work with........:eek:
[Android Apps and Games] knjigo:
The device is Motorola Moto z. Currently running stock 7.1.1 android.

But I have this issue on different custom ROMs that already had integrated pixel launcher.

For example ressurection remix ROM based on lineage 14.1 ROM.

I also had this issue on different Oreo based custom ROMs.

The strange thing is that always same apps are dissapearing. For example es file explorer and Sonos app are always gone, after restart.

In order to start this app, I have to go to Google play, search and start from there.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
I have a HTC One M9 that was recently running resurrection remix android 7.1.2, the pixel launcher worked great.

That device is now running lineage OS 15.1 (android 8.1) and the pixel launcher runs great.

I also have a Samsung A5 with multi boot so I can run the stock 7.1.1 rom or lineage 14.1 and 15.0.

The pixel launcher runs great on that device too.

Sony Xperia L1, stock 7.1.1, no issues running this launcher.

STK Sync 5e stock 6.0, no issues again.

Sony Xperia E5, stock 6.0, no issues.

Could be an issue with that device so let's see if another Moto Z owner can confirm that?
[Android Apps and Games] Stampyron:
Nerver ever seen an issue like that on my mido.

[Android Apps and Games] shubhamsharma0990:
From your home screen screenshot it seems there is no "at a glance" widget. Did you check if you disable that in launcher's settings.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
The Sony L1 and the Samsung A5 2015 are my own daily and work phones.

The STK is my wife's and the HTC M9 and Sony E5 belong to my kids, although they are not now in daily use, I just mess around with them lol :laugh:

[MENTION=6018897]paphonb[/MENTION] , thanks for your fixes, dragging icons is okay now, but I'm still getting crash on the settings menu open.

I have granted all permission location permission too and even my device location is turned on to high accuracy but the weather is not displayed in the home screen (see screenshot) hlep me if i have missed something
[Android Apps and Games] Micjmiu:
Hey man it works now!!! Not sure what exactly happened. I had all the necessary permissions approved for both the app setting as well as the app itself as you have noted previously and presently, although that time around it worked out.

Thanks for your help.

Try waiting for ten minutes for the GPS to lock
[Android Apps and Games] knjigo:
I ask the question in Moto z forum but still no answer. I'm not sure but I think the problem might be my external sd card. I formatted this as internal memory. So some apps might be using this external sd card for saving some settings.

I formated this external sd card as portable memory now, and after that a couple of apps just dissapeare from the main screen.

Let see what's happens after reboot
[Android Apps and Games] Ash225:
It works now finally what i did is that went to Google app and searched for weather and it displayed the weather in my area and then when i went back to my home screen voila weather is showing up i didn't even turned on my location ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Stampyron:
Maybe because your location was already locked.:) If your GPS is off for about half an hour, the weather will disappear.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Apps installed on SD is known to cause them to disappear from the device (on some android versions)

I should have mentioned the devices I use all have SD cards formatted as internal storage.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

You need to uninstall the pixel launcher in your system, which needs root
[Android Apps and Games] -MB-:
Installed the pixel 2 rootless launcher on a Mi Note 3, but after getting the Background app off the Play stoe, I cannot for the life of me get the bg Image to scale properly, either it is zoomed in, or i zoomit out in selection screen, and all I see is a portion of it in the top left of the corner, with the rest being black.
[Android Apps and Games] Sheetzie03:
You aren't going to get icon support, so please STOP ASKING! other devs have this same launcher with it, go there, but this Dev does not, accept it or move on. Or use the pixel launcher mod app found in the apps section, it allows you to add icon support to any pixel/launcher 3/Aosp based launcher. But I just dont understand why people continue asking and mentioning that 'they are frustrated with the lack of features' SMH SMH remember the base of this launcher is the STOCK pixel 2 launcher. So anything on top of what comes with the Verision you get on the PlayStore, consider it a plus.

Another thing, I see so many user mentioning issues, even complaining, surprise surprise, well a lot of them aren't actually the launcher, it's related to the specific phone you have, combined with whatever Android version you have. Consider this going forward, please. If something is wrong, it doesn't automatically mean it's the launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] c20h25n3o:
OP5T here, no lag whatsoever, Running 8.0.0
[Android Apps and Games] Sheetzie03:
sorry but I have to say this, please don't take it personal:

You may not have meant to be demanding but it kinda came off that way imo

As far as being impatient, come on man, you need to show some patience. Please do not forget that this is xda, where these devs do this for free on their own time, and they of course don't owe you, me, or anyone anything. Please try to remember this going forward, I know I would absolutely not want to come off like that towards any developer. Then they could end up getting fed up, which I don't blame them, considering how often these types of things happen, and they leave xda. Not sure if you know this, more of them continue to leave and go to Google plus, Telegram, or else where, unfortunately. But again, I don't blame them.

Lastly, consider that just because you are having an issue, it doesn't necessarily mean it's the launcher. A lot of times, its the specific phone, combined with the android version that could cause the issue.

Good day.

Please add capability to apply 3rd party icon packs under customisation.

[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Very well done.

Thumbs up, round of applause.

It had to be said.

I've said it several times and been told off for telling people to use the search.

Unfortunately the net has made people lazy.

They don't want to search, they don't want to read a few pages of this thread before posting, heaven forbid the answer might just be there....

They post a repetitive question and then get angry and upset when we tell it's been asked and answered a million times.

On the issue/bug thing, because I have three kids in their late teens and early 20s, I have half a dozen android 6.0 and 7.0 devices laying around because they want to change their phones every few months.

Take my 21yr old middle son.

He has spent £800 on three different Samsung devices in the last four months alone......

So when people post here that this or that isn't working in MM, i can pick up a Sony Xperia E5, Samsung J5 or several other 6.0 device and try it.

I haven't had any issues on any device I've tried this launcher on, and reply with that news, but then they get angry and accuse you of dismissing the issue but still blame this launcher, and that sucks.

The worst thing is there does seem to be a handful of devices that have issues running this launcher, and it's down to those devices because I see the exact same devices complained about in the lawnchair and nova launcher threads.

One plus, xiamoi and certain Motorola devices just don't seem to like any pixel based launcher for some reason.

If anyone doesn't believe me, pop and look In the lawn chair and nova launcher threads here on XDA or the G+ nova launcher community.

Full of complaints from users of one plus 3s and 5s, Xiomomi devices and Moto X and Z.

Bit of a coincidence I think, but it's still nothing to do with this excellent launcher.

Why do we bother?

PLEASE READ THE PREVIOUS FEW PAGES

We have asked users to stop requesting icon pack support hundreds of times.

Its asked 3000 times a week in this thread and not one person who's asked for icon pack support can be bothered to read or search the thread before making a new post.

For the 3 millionth time, Icon support isn't coming to this this launcher, ever.

That's the decision of the developer, and was made right from page one of this thread.

Saying you didn't know is NO excuse, its asked nine times on every page of this thread and there's only so many times we are prepared help people who just can't be bothered to check something before posting.
[Android Apps and Games] osm0sis:

This should be added to the FAQ in the OP with a "Want icon packs? Install this add-on:

---------- Post added at 02:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 AM ----------

Well, the problem is people don't even care to read the op. I think most of these posts come after amir zaidi made his launcher, and it supports icon pack. So then the same people who tried amir zaidis launcher go and try paphonb's launcher and after they tried paphonb's launcher they're like "Amir zaidis launcher support icon pack so why can't paphonb support icon pack too?" Then they log on to XDA and ask paphonb to support icon pack without searching why there was no icon support.
[Android Apps and Games] osm0sis:
Right but if it's in the OP, those who are literate can find it easily, and those who are lazy and post anyway we can just respond with a perfunctory "read the OP".

Being on 7.0 (Moto G5/Motorola sucks), icon pack support of this Pixel launcher mod would make a lot of sense - because there's nothing like this with e.g. backport shortcuts. That's why I currently use Lawnchair but it hasn't got full Pixel launcher experience yet.

You get what google sends you unfortunately.

Just make sure you have the latest Google app, and remember the Google feed belongs to and is controlled by google, not this launcher......

The feed darkening to match a dark wallpaper is a pixel 2 exclusive feature, and obvious this and other pixel based launchers don't have Google's API to do that.

Hi!

Enviado desde mi ONEPLUS A5000 mediante Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
It still puzzles me why people keep asking how to change the Google feed or they see different feeds/menus and options in the feed they see.

So let me explain.

This launcher is "modded" so you have the swipe right function of the Google feed without having this launcher installed as a system app.

This launcher doesn't control the google feed, the Google app does.

You get what google sends you when you swipe right.

You can't pick and choose what style of feed or types of menu you see in that feed unfortunately, its all controlled by a google server, not this launcher.

The reason you see different menus or different looking feeds is because there's around 10 or 11 different styles of Google feed at the moment, and the Google server sends you a version of the feed that they deem compatible with how you are accessing that feed.

They also take your android version, Google app verdion and type of device you use into consideration.

The Pixel 2 device has special features to change the feed style according to colour of homescreen wallpaper, and uses a special API to do that.

Obviously this launcher, the other pixel launcher, lawnchair and nova don't have access to those new APIs that's why the feed looks alot different on this and those other launchers to the real pixel 2 launcher feed on a pixel 2 device.......
