Just an update on the project since it's been alittle quiet, as a side note, once an awhile, check the message board for blog updates.

The LTS update from the beginning was to be a polished, stable, bug fixing accomplishment for Sapphyx Launcher. I intended it to be released by spring but its looking alittle longer than expected. Because of the delay, their will be more beta updates to check in on the new changes ive been working on. The hard thing about this project is getting what we have stable and than having to start over because of adding new features to compete against new launcher core features releasing in the wild (Such as now, Predicted Actions). I look at how we can implement that into our current setup and try a few things and settle on a final product with the feedback from the playstore and telegram channel. I also monitor feedback and bug reports sent to the issue reporter.

Right now, I'm focusing on a few important aspects of the launcher. Some new, some old.

The OLD

-How to make the launcher settings still feel original but feel stock like and not confusing. How to take our current implementation but don't make it feel intimidating.

-Light/Dark theme. We've experimented with this several times. Im currently working on allowing users to choose a dark or light theme for the launcher settings. Possible trigger by current time as well.

-What to consider a premium feature, what to call users in with that they would usually need to pay for and what to go about differently than other launcher products.

-Swift feeds interface, quality and customization

The NEW

-A new App Predictions/Recents system that does not rely on the Pixel system

-Swift App Actions. (Very different than Lawnchwair's current approach and the Pixel Launcher.)

-Access hidden apps from the app drawer edge menu and still use them from a different list.

-New Context Pages. Rayne Context Page is in development. It will be a competitive extension to the One Plus Shelf.

I hope to approach all of these features correctly in the next beta and hope to hear back from the user base.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
New beta update on the playstore is available.

This update implements the following

-Reverted changes made to add a dark theme. It's currently not to our standards so it was shutoff. A new dark mode will be worked on.

-Implemented new recent apps list. It's rather still experimental but still relying on the pixel launcher prediction list. This list only updates after a launcher restart atm. Apps are logged as a recent app from the app drawer. This list also has a clear function and listed horizontally and separated from the Sapphyx App Drawer view.

-Swift App Actions modified slightly to improve looks and functionality. Added a Chrome Resume action when Chrome app is detected on device.

-Actions and Recent apps now use font package applied to launcher. Also adapt to launcher drawer background automatically.

Il be focusing on recent apps improvements and the launcher settings in next beta
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
The next update will release on the stable channel to get everyone caught up on changes. Il be making some major changes to the styles and colors used in the Sapphyx Launcher settings as well so it's based on the guidelines for Pixel like appearance. Working on alot of things in the background to get everything up to snuff.

If you are using Android Q, I am going to say you may experience problems with Sapphyx Launcher and im not to worried about those problems at this time until the OS is set to be a stable release.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
Some major UX changes headed to Sapphyx Launcher
[Android Apps and Games] TiTiB:
Looks good! Thx Nx Biotic
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
Been messing around with tablet configuration. Minor prep for what's to come. But focusing on the UX alot.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
Feeling lazy
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
It's no Google feed but it's the same information. Swiftfeed will be getting maintenance done in the next update to support Google Now feed support. Ive opted in the decision to remove yahoo as a default news provider because the image quality is dirt to the sizes we need.

As a replacement, I've integrated a new feed from Google that uses keywords to find news related to. You add some keywords (ex: World, technology, mobile, phones, people) and your feed will generate on what you've requested. The only difference between Google now and this is that their are no preview images yet. Im trying to figure out if thats an option yet.

Im also working on a new context pager chooser activity that will also have a new preview image so you can see what it looks like. Lots of new things headed to Sapphyx Launcher. Their are alot of developers giving me some really good advice and that's all it takes to put something in the right direction
[Android Apps and Games] TiTiB:
I would prefer no image preview—I don't need a pic (just headline/summary) to decide what I want to *read* (the whole point is to find out what you want to read about, right ?). IMO, unless it's "entertainment" "news", no pic is necessary.

Plus, without a pic (unless it's a tiny tiny thumbnail) we'll be able to see more results in the page—something I'm *always* for. As it is now there are only 4, FOUR, items on the entire page.

I have in the past always disabled news feeds in launchers because they weren't configurable to have no preview pic.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
New update went live today. This update was mostly maintenance and house keeping to the launcher settings. A few things got moved around and cleaned up. There's a new about section, back and restore has its own minibar panel and Swiftfeed got google news support.

Also

Sapphyx Launcher Premium is free for a week

Sapphyx Launcher Onyx is half off for the week.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
New update today

-Completely rebuilt how context pages are handled and managed. Built a small API to help myself manage the pages better and for the launcher to build the pages correctly when users interact with them. This should prevent blank pages, freezes and gesture interference. Ive said that before so fingers crossed.

-Gestures are now blocked on context pages. This includes swipe up and down gestures that would usually interfere with Swiftfeed news UX.

-New Context Pages preference page. Page settings preference automatically determines if page has settings available. Includes new color preference i put together binded with adaptive colors.

-Searching for apps in the App Drawer now hides Swift Actions and Predicted Apps when searchbar is focused allocating more space.

-New defaults set for the Swift Actionbar and Gestures because of gesture fixes.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
I did release another update on top of the previous update as a hotfix yesterday on Google Play only just to see a few results. This hotfix will be included abit later on xda labs.

Id like to take the time to thank the handfuls of users who actively communicate feedback and request and have helped me get Sapphyx Launcher to were it currently stands.

I know it has its flaws. I understand I ignore some request for good reason. I know I haven't fixed a few current request but it takes time to figure out how to approach said fix or feature request without it hurting another launcher project. If said feature exist on Lawnchair, i may decide to ignore the request for that reason. Every launcher has a reason to exist. We don't need duplicates of pixel launcher and features, we want new and exciting twist and features to allow custom launchers to stand out.

Thankyou again
[Android Apps and Games] AngelDespair1:
Thank you for what you have done and continue to do, sorry I lost out on beta a lot of my stuff was hacked and I've had trouble getting it all back. Most of it I did but still have a lot broken. Thank you again for everything, keep up the great work.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
Just an update to the project. I am taking a break from all projects in June and will resume operations shortly after my schedule has cleared.

The LTS Update will be finished. This will include alot of changes (id say fixes but changes bring bugs to discover).
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
I am currently working on the next milestone to Sapphyx Launcher.

In the meantime, any of my long term users could do me a favor and take some time to fill out this Google form i put together? Its basically apart of my feedback program that allows the community to put a say in whats to come in the next update.

Hi
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
I no longer support this launcher at this time. With Android upgrading fast and this launcher being based on Pixel launcher, things got outdated and broke fast.

If your not here to talk shop, hi!
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EgyCode:
Hello,

I've a strange issue since I updated my SIM card to support 4G months ago, I've issue with 2G network the signal is very bad, I can here the caller but they can't hear me and I want to force 3G network only which is not supported in the chinese version and this really is very annoying..

I've searched for that and I found a secrete code that allow setting the preferred network type from hidden project menu but when I enter the code nothing show..

I tried this code which didn't work and the other one show the project menu but without the network type option!

So please I want to rebrand my phone from the chinese version H60-L12 to the international version H60-L04, but I've read that there is hardware difference between both variants and I just want to confirm if it is ok to rebrand the phone..

Edit: I forgot to mention that when I insert the SIM card in the second slot which support 2G only there is no issue and the signal perception is very good even inside my house and away from the windows!

Waiting for few weeks to see this thing. thanks :D

Btw i want to see if there any bug left here :p
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A (PRIME) ROMs, Kernels, Recove] subsam-:
I tried this ROM and this stands as the best ROM I've tested so far out of the available ROMs for this phone. I, however have some questions.

1. Is there a way to keep notification LED from blinking after you've turned the screen on and then off? (without clearing the notification. In MIUI it does stop.)

2. I did an improper backup (basically just copied the whole "Downloads" folder to my PC before moving it back, as I did for other folders (Documents, Pictures etc.)) and somehow the phone doesn't detect the files/folders in that specific "Download" folder. Even did a whole wipe after clearing cache/data for the download manager failed and still, it doesn't detect the files. However, it detects the files in "Documents" and other folders just fine. Is there anything I can do to try and work around the problem?

3. The Internet is noticeably slow (when sending files in WhatsApp/Telegram or when downloading files) and I'm not sure if this is a known bug or there's some settings that I set wrong in my phone. I haven't restarted the router though, so perhaps that might fix the problem. But I'll keep the question here just in case someone else has the problem too.

4. I don't know how to get rid of this problem, where apps won't receive notifications after some time when the phone is in idle mode, until you manually launch it. How do I take care of this problem?

Thanks for your work in providing this ROM!

where is android oreo for redmi note 5a
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A (PRIME) ROMs, Kernels, Recove] subsam-:
I have decided to uninstall this ROM as numerous issues arose.

1. The Internet has gotten really unstable and would be really slow to the point that it's unusable at all and it's really infuriating.

2. The system would hang for a minute, every 5 minutes. Nothing's more infuriating than that.

3. Doesn't work well with Magisk.

Please try to avoid this ROM until the dev takes care of the problem.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
Yes, it does in fact work.

Sorta.

Pre requisites: ROOT, File explorer of your choice that uses root and make sure in the settings to enable hidden folders.

You'll need to clear out substratum to make sure there isn't anything lingering and then select your overlay and build/enable them.

Once you do you'll need to open up your file explorer and go to

Data/media/0/.substratum

(If you don't see .substratum you didn't enable hidden folders)

You should have the overlay apks inside. Select all, copy and go to

System/app

And paste your apks inside of it then reboot.

Once your phone boots back up go into substratum and inside of the manager you should see your overlays. Select them and enable them! You may have to reboot for the overlays to properly work as usual

Aaaaaand Substratum already has a beta working! https://play.google.com/apps/testing/projekt.substratum/join

Happy modding!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
So far themes that work:

Pi Dark: System, GPS, Settings, and System UI work flawlessly

Swift Dark/Black: All apps except for system/UI work

Sai's Oreo Theme: Android system (stock blue only) System UI and QS tiles only!! Anything else will cause your phone to bootloop. You'll need to boot into twrp, mount storage and go into your system/system/app folder and delete the APK's that caused it to loop
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] azpatterson3:
Gave it a shot... Long story short.... Bootloop..... Reflashed factory image.

My stupid fault. I followed directions from another source. May try again after the next update.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
so i tried this yesterday and got into a bootloop. followed directions and all but now my phone doesnt connect to my laptop when i plug it in via usb. so now i'm not able to use fasboot to flash the imgs. im running out of ideas to try.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
You may have to use different cables or pc. I assume your SDK/platform-tools is up to date?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
yes my platform-tools is up to date. i tried another laptop and cables. still not seeing my phone. im getting a unknown usb device (Device descriptor request failed ). think my phone is done:crying:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] azpatterson3:
Can you boot into bootloader? Power + volume down?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
yes im able to boot into bootloader and twrp.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] azpatterson3:
Don't think your phone is a goner but can't understand why it isn't being seen as a fastboot device while in bootloader mode.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
i didnt think so neither but nothing i tried working i also have a friend of mines hes a developer and even he dont understand why its not being recognized in adb/fastboot
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
If you can get into twrp mount your storage, go into system/system/app and you should see the theme apks inside of it. Delete them and reboot
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
Substratum is working now without needing to manually copy paste the files. I'd still do a titanium backup before messing with themes
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
I did see the apks I removed 3 of them and rebooted. That didn't do nothing. Still boot looping and now it's just stuck at the TWRP bootup screen. And my laptop wasn't seeing my phone when plugged in. I tried numerous computers. I did a RMA yesterday. It was unlocked from VZW so I know the replacement will end my rooting and having fun with the phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cozzeck:
Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I have the latest 997 version and I checked to make sure it was installing the apk's into the system folder. I'm using pi dark by the way
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
That's extremely odd
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cosmo100292:
I would clear everything out, uninstall and reinstall substratum and try reapplying the overlay. Reboot, re apply the overlay and it should come up in the manager section in substratum
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] holla420:
I can still boot into bootloader/fastboot mode to bad I can't get USB to read my phone
