No updates this week, im taking some time to rewrite the app drawer to support more functionality and bring a smoother and fluent experience.

In the next update, users will find that the recent apps have been merged in the app drawer tabs along with user created app groups. What this means is that your primary tab and secondary tab can now be modified to show recent apps or groups or both along with or without your main list of apps. this brings a new handful of options as a user for organization and access to your apps.

This is going to take awhile to implement as a stable feature so the next update will release on the beta channel to further test functionality.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
There will be a new update on the beta channel this week for Insider preview users. This update will allow users to test out new changes to the app drawer, a new settings sheet, improvements to performance, theme options and a few other things under the hood to prep for bigger changes.

The app drawer has been revamped to allow users to include recent apps and groups in each tab. The drawer now gathers application data in a smarter way so we have more control over what information is gathered by launcher sheets. A new theme option to dodge app colors for popup menus and use the theme option as well as the adaptive icon drawables.

Improved theme options powered by Monet library

and more
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:

[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
The gca telegram team has issued some warnings with this week's beta update and the issues will be corrected later on in the week.

These issues include the following...

-Drawer Tabs reset themselves and copy the tabs from the launcher sheet menu

-Groups may not appear correctly in the secondary tab

-Pulling down on the refresh action in the drawer pulldown toolbar will replicate the app list

-Sometimes creating a secondary tab will recreate the app list

-Statusbar may not correctly theme against wallpapers

-Groups Icons not properly theming based on personalization settings

Il try to have these things cleared up next week.

I've working on this launcher for about 3 years and it's been a learning curve for me so I just ask my followers to just be patient with bugs as I bounce between my professional and hobby life.

I can say the next beta update will have a handful of important fixes.

Reddit - Dive into anything

www.reddit.com

Recently opened up a reddit for GCA Launcher so users can target issues and request in a more organized way. sometimes an email or telegram cannot be the solution.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
At the beginning of this week, another update was published for GCA Launcher to focus on app drawer performance and a revised icon view.

The revised iconview has subtracted 4 physical views from the custom view I built to manage launcher icons and badges. This new view draws badges in the canvas instead of using image views (similar to how launcher3 handles dots) This cleared up a bunch of performance issues and brought to the table cleaner badges and a physical way to move badges around (pro feature coming later). This will also open gateways to more customization to how icons look in the shelf and app drawer. (We could possibly bring a more material you like personalization to the table for icons)

By replacing the icon view, this freed up alot of memory dedicated to search in the app drawer. I also rewrote the logic in the adapter of how the data is handled while searching so that probably took a tole to on things.

The app drawer also got a fine tuning using a new adapter that combines recent apps, Groups and All apps into a more integrated list. This did get rid of dividers but it made the system breath alittle bit better.

The new icon view also brought a few changes to Group icons which now look cleaner and use a native grid view for its sheet.

Horizontal, and Smart grid types were removed in this update. This cause havok to the current adapter and no longer supported it. I will be looking at adding a quick apps sheet to replace the list view drawer type soon

Bit of an update on development. Il be doing a vidoc this month to explain the progress of GCA Launcher development and we're headed but il be posting that on our reddit and social media. Today, Il talk about some changes headed to GCA Launcher.

2022 is almost here and I'd like to be wrapped up with general development. Where everything should belong as far as settings, device optimization, customization, personalization and so on. That would lead us to focusing on bug fixes, improvements and translations in 2022 of which that time, id like to start on some new projects.

In the next update, we're gonna be focusing on some bigger improvements.

The first thing I'm starting with is the widget chooser. Right now, it's broken on some devices so you have to use the system action to select a widget from the apps popup menu. I have since than rewritten it to be a completely new interface that's straight forward. all the widgets are listed (including the default gca homescreen widget) and you simply select one, modify the homescreen size and your down. You can browse and preview the widgets in real time going forward.

Icon Packs, Icon Shapes, Fonts and Icon customization will be held in one activity were users can preview these changes in real time. This will be classified as Iconics which will be moved from the launcher settings to its own section. we want to separate icon personalization from launcher personalization.

Folders will be revamped to be more accessible from the app drawer, sheets and gestures. When we added them to the app drawer, that was a big jump in development and allowing users to have better access to them. Going forward, we would like to focus on personalization abit. Users will be able to use the Window to access those apps or a new bottomsheet that users can toggle that blends well in the app drawer environment. Transitioning is smooth and takes up less memory. We would also like to modify the group icons, label and list seamlessly. This would allow users to use an icon pack folder icons that don't receive much attention these days in launchers to theme groups based on their current theme.

These are some of the major improvements coming soon to GCA and alot more as development continues. This update is scheduled to release before 2022.

A preview of the new widget system
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
hello everyone, its been alittle hard to keep tabs on all the forums I have available now. Just a visual update on GCA Launcher development.

Right now, i have plans to release the final update for 2021 in December for gca launcher. not to say development will come to an end but to a stand still leaving the launcher in a state i believe is affordable todo so (I just really want to work in something new soon) To prepare for that, GCA Launchers insider previews are now available via beta signup on Google Play. Here's the lay down of changes from the last time i posted.

The launcher is being optimized for android 12 as well as a side release of a new android go variant in December. As the original plan was to release this launcher as an android go exclusive, things changed... alot! so an android exclusive version is in the works but stripped... very stripped.

Widgets have been reworked. alot of work goes behind the scenes to make widgets work the way we want them to and so im gonna keep pressing to make them compatible with GCA Launcher. alot of work goes into making widgets compatible with a 3rd party launcher that's not pixel.

MonetCompat has been integrated to bring the android 1e theming system to all with some optional tweaks to manage by the user and what pallets to use.

Launcher sheets have been redesigned similar to windows 11 sheets. they detach at the margins of the screen to allow me to add features in untapped space and layers.

The app drawer has integrated recent apps and groups into the app list (similar to how action launcher handles its folder sytem. the app drawer now has a letter quick scroller feature and is more condensed in style.

Groups now allow users to customize the group icon as well as its category color. users who purchased the icon modifier add on can tap into icon packs and set the group icon to whatever they want.

Gestures have been reworked to be more sensitive to user engagement and allow for more customizable options in the future.

users can swipe from the edge of the screen as if they were opening a nav drawer to open the quick apps sheet.

Swipe down on an app in the shelf to open the glance sheet.

The startup activity was reworked to be inspired by nova launcher.

The launcher settings interface has been cleaned up and remastered with our own preference api.

There's alot going on here and my best advice is to try it out for yourself.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
The Insider previews (Beta updates) have come to an end and users will see the next update towards the end of November / intro to December. This will be classified as the end of the year update and will lead us into the next year of development which will focus on quality of life, performance, and translation support.

Material You and MonetCompat will be a big focus in the next few weeks as development in the background continues.

we'll see big improvements for performance, icons, customization and user desktop interface.
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
Next update will be delayed due to some changes allowing native support for android 12, Changes being reworked for the add on store and general development that's being alittle difficult
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
It's been awhile since we updated this thread. Figure I would update community here at xda what GCA Launcher development is up to.

For 2022, Development is focused on performance, reliability and finishing a few experimental features in GCA Launcher we've been tinkering with since early last year. Our problems are obvious, Performance suffers heavily, unfinished features introduced last year, navigation that really didn't make sense and we tried to hard in some areas. In GCA Launchers next major update, we're looking a few core areas that need much needed help.

The application packaging list has been slightly revamped to run in the background to process package updates, badges, app updates and icon changes faster. This was abit difficult to achieve a stable performance across the board as we are processing with the launcher app class and not package manager. we do this to achieve multi user app support, dual apps, work apps, correct badges and app shortcuts but it can be abit of a hassle to handle properly. we've been struggling to support older devices but the next gen 6+ gig of ram devices are pretty flawless (ironic how gca was initially for android go)

Icons have been a big focus lately. with new popup menus, notification previews, icon editing, blacklist, icon pack toggling and icon crafting. it's all about customization and style when it comes to GCA Launchers latest batch of updates. We've even gon as far as introducing our own Material you icon mutations to match the wallpaper. unlike lawnchair and pixel launcher, GCA will extract the primary wallpaper color and mutate the icons with the color and generate new icons based on the style. You can use the stock app icons or a preferred icon pack.

GCA Launcher uses MonetCompat android library for material you theming and palette generation. Users can customize the palettes in the color schemes activity settings.

GCA Launcher is starting to look like a competitive launcher on the market but we lack in performance currently and its a big focus in 2022.

We have alot of changes coming to badges, gestures, the shelf, widgets and more. The previews below are some of what where currently working on.

The latest update available for GCA Launcher is in the Beta Channel on Google Play. Enjoy
[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
GCA Launcher 3.0 will go into development towards the end of summer which will bring changes requested by the user base and partners that have supported me with the project for several years. This will include taking away complicated UX design i spent much time on that just doesn't fit or takes up to much memory.

I cant wait to begin development and show it off when the time comes.

The latest updates have proven to be very successful and i thank those who have stuck around long enough to see it evolve.

Hi,

I suspected my secondary camera is faulty and my unit is already out of warranty. I just wonder if it is possible to replace the secondary camera with a new one. If it is not, then I think I have to send to service center for repair :(. Which it would be more expensive.

Thanks & regards,

Daneal
[P3600 Software Upgrading] desolateone:
You need to weigh up the cost of needing the secondary camera as compared to the cost of having it repaired. :confused:

At the least you should have it investigated by a reputeable repairer so that you actually know the cost that would be involved, obviously it will cost you money to have it looked at. :p

Secondary camera issue

Assume that the secondary camera is ACTUALLY not faulty but it just 'lack' of certain driver. As I noticed in previous posting in this forum, user reported that there's a driver called ATI that can be used to fix camera related problem. I'm not sure whether this is a could be the exact problem on why the secondary camera doesn't work. :confused:

Anyone could comment about this ? Thanks.

Regards,

Daneal

Hi everyone, I'm new in the forum, in fact I don't even know if this is the right section to publish my question, however, I just installed a data monitoring application that also allows you to see which hosts the device connects to, I have examined the majority of them, all legitimate except for the one (10.xx.xx.xx) which seems to be a private address (in my LAN, but in my LAN there is no device with that IP, so much so that if I go to 4G (mobile connection) the IP address remains unchanged and used). So I wanted to ask an opinion from those more experienced than I am about what this address could be. Thanks in advance, I hope you can clarify my doubts.

(Samsung S8+, latest security update, Android 9.0)

Edit: I found out that the IP address is associated with the rmnet0 interface, which I believe is likely to be that of the mobile data, confirmed? (I remove the photo as it indicates my IP)

How to create my Custom Applet for storing data in SE and access it via NFC? Similar to Google Applet....

I'm currently working on a POC to Storing custom data into Secure Element and I want to access the same with an NFC reader.

I checked a lot of APIs and ways to make that possible and came often to the point that we have to root our device or to be certified by Google to create officially an NFCEE to access the secure element with NFC or to have an Applet available, which has the same location inside the eSE as the Google Wallet Applet.

I have a tecno wx4 phone and I tried to install the TWRP recovery thought adb, and it all went how it should have. But when I tried to boot it I got the this screen:

"Orange State

Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted

Your device will boot in 5 seconds"

And I've googled about it but all solutions I found required the phone to actually boot into the OS or the recovery mode, and this phone just keeps on rebooting to this screen every 5 seconds, and it does that even when I try to boot into recovery mode, just sends me back to that screen, and the adb terminal can't detect the phone on this state.

If anyone has had a problem like this and found a solution, please help me because I ran out of ideas...

PS: I did everything I needed prior to this, enabled adb debugging, unlocked OEM through the OS first, but once I unlocked through fastboot I kept having that screen.

I searched and didn't find answer to this question.

While I understand there are still some things to work out between 6.1 on Hermes, how does Wm6.1 perform on Hermes versus on Kaiser?

Or, is it just not a fair comparison?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kaalgoosy:
Depends on why you're asking this question. Flashed several 6.1 roms on the hermes before it crapped out, just got the kaiser a few days ago and flashed even more 6.1 roms on it, guess what, not a huge difference in performance. Yea the kaiser has more zip, but it's hardly a revolution. In fact, I went back to schaps wm6 4.30. If you like wm 6.1 though, stick with the hermes for now, it's more than adequate
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ai6908:
Performance wise its all the same. The only advantage i see is more RAM, which means i can use touchflo applications more easily in a kaiser than a hermes. Also in opinion this means less resets! But they are all crapy usual WM LOL.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rotaflex:
Kasier vs Hermes

That's good to know. I am using a variant of Schaps 4.31 (WM6) for some time now. Looking into to flash a WM6.1 mainly for zippier response on my Hermes and also comtemplating to get a Kasier. After seeing a few YouTube demos on Kaiser showing how smooth and fast the Kaiser is was tempting me to get a Kaiser. Perhaps I should hold for now and go to HTC diamond later.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rotaflex:
Kaiser vs Hermes

thedogger,

Thank you very much for the insight. It does sounds like Kaiser is a refinement of Hermes whch provides the stability that everyone using Hermes has been screaming.

Again, thanks. Your experience in the switch and insight is very helpful.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kaalgoosy:
I agree with thedogger with all the pro's and con's with the Kaiser, all that said, if you're due for an upgrade or can find a kaiser within around 150 american or less, it's definitely worth an upgrade. The Kaiser just feels more sophistocated; much more stable, Gps is a huge plus, faster installs, brighter screen, tilt keyboard feels awesome, etc...I wouldn't worry about the Diamond($$$), all I've heard so far is that it's kinda slow for a next gen phone. After a week with the kaiser, its the best upgrade I made so far for the pricetag.
