The only issue its in beta and chinese language only. An xda member called Looki75 done a english translation on an old beta version.
However there has been a few updates since then so I have decided to do a translation on the latest beta.
Also for your information the beta version has a firewall service built into LBE so no need for droidwall.

0 new UI, friendly appearance
1 to increase communication Firewall: Supports intelligent interception original algorithm block spam messages, while black and white lists of telephone-based connectivity and night quiet mode
(2) increase the flow monitoring: You can now more accurately state that use of the Internet traffic, while the network firewall (need ROOT privileges) supports case 3G/wifi
3 to move the software to increase functionality, more software will be a key move to SD card or phone memory (ROOT user support for a key move)
4 increase the bulk uninstall feature, a key to uninstall multiple applications (ROOT users)
5 increase the power optimization feature: You can clearly see the power of the hardware and software and can make the corresponding measures, such as lowering the screen brightness and turn off the wireless network.
6 increase in task management function, a key optimization of memory
7 increase the garbage collection function, a key to clear the cache
8 increased acceleration power, easy to optimize the boot time (ROOT users)
9 Fixed feature is not active defense in the new CM7 kernel boot problems

I'd like to start by saying this isn't my app. I'm just sharing its existence with users here, since I know many of us want to use GEL badly, but it lacks some core features we all have grown to require before considering using a launcher as our daily driver.

Description
This is the new KitKat Launcher compiled straight from AOSP. KitKat Launcher+ focuses on clean and stable features that keep true to the stock KitKat experience. Great customization without having to deal with all the bloat commonly found in other launchers. Guaranteed to be fast and smooth.
Please Note: KitKat Launcher+ is available for devices with Android 4.1.2. and later. However, since AOSP is directed to Android 4.4 you will have the best experience on Android 4.4 and on Google devices (Nexus 4/5). Officially AOSP Launcher3 does not support landscape mode or tablets. Your milage will vary.
Feel free to e-mail me about bugs and crashes but only when you were able to reproduce the bug and/or have an error message. If the launcher crashes from the start it might not be compatible with your device!

Gonna try this one, I just update to 4.4.2 and my GEL is gone, but there are some things I didn't like about it anyways example, the icon size looks awful in nexus 4, tends to be slow sometimes, hope this offer the best of both words, gel transparency and faster access to Google now and better looking icons for my nexus 4 + some Google to turn off some features.
Reporting back after testing.
I can't add forum shortcuts (tapatalk pro)? Others with same problem? Thought it maybe was because I hadn't purchased the pro version, but no luck!

Why does it need to have permission to make phone calls?

When you visit XDA on your phone...
Tapatalk limits your view/capabilities too much for me, & lets you be even more of a nOOb!
Xda app is bug ridden.
Ad blocking via a host file or a script like PurePerfomance & the like is a MUST on a any browser on xda! I tried Chrome on bone stock ...94 and it was useless! It would freeze up until all the ad crap was done, not to mention the "This is a Trap..." BS.
Yet WITH ad blocking it is the only browser, I know of, that does complete editing on xda!
Update
The newest 4.3.5 is a great departure from this. The history cannot be added the Quick access, has an awkward interface and has a short & poor memory.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/boat-browser-hd-lux-screen-brightness-t2821205
Maxthon HD, its legacy is Miren, is my favorite "display" browser.
Stay close to the Quick access / home to keep freezing to an acceptable rate. When a freeze happens just hold your recent apps key (GravityBox) to kill & restart. Quick access is a customizable favorits/home that defaults when you close all tabs.
Best ( mandatory) settings:
Turn everything off including fetch mode.
Txt size: large to ex large.
Web links display: normal
Open links: open in current is a must. Open in new & set as current is a must for file uploads only (moto x no ULs at all).
Zoom: close.
With the proper settings you can toggle to a edit/upload mode and back to the best forum display mode.

Not to be confused with the non tablet version or the Pioneer version which are useless! The pioneer is really very nice & perhaps less buggy than hd, but cut & paste do not work!
Also choose the 2010 style/theme at the lower left.
P M notifications are turned off by default.
Choose user cp > edit options > forum display > linear newest, so you do not have to press that tiny little arrow to get the latest post. I use the forum display changer to go another mode to view the op on a long thread.
I was on my Wife's m to DL this wonderful cam http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2427015 . Her m is unrooted. What a frustrating experience! If I were demo'ing out the same at a vzw store, I would think what a POS!

It limits your view of what is on the forum.
How do you jump to other phone forums? With a browser compact view of forums is easy. I could go on but try Marathon HD. The customizable quick access (their version of favorites) default home page is so handy!
BTW I never use fetch mode. It causes freezing on xda.

https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-fix-android-12-link-handling/
I don't really have a problem with Android 12's default behavior in this respect, but it's good to have options.
Among all the fantastic features and changes that Android 12 brings along, it also introduces some rather controversial changes. We have already talked about how Android 12’s new background app limitations can run havoc on apps like Termux. Another annoying change in Android 12 is the way it handles external links. If you’ve recently upgraded to Android 12, you probably would have noticed that when opening links, you no longer get that familiar “Open with” dialogue. Links will either automatically open in their corresponding apps or take you straight to Google Chrome or your default browser. If you’re not a fan of this change and want to restore the way things were in older Android versions, read on.
Starting with Android 12, Google now only allows “verified links” to be opened in external apps. Verified links allow app developers to ensure that only their app can handle links from their domain. If a link is non-verified, Android 12 will open it in the default browser, instead of showing you the app selection dialogue. But thankfully there’s an app called Better Open With that lets you get around Android 12’s new link handling behavior.
How to fix the handling of links on Android 12 with “Better Open With”
Download the “Beter Open With” app from the Play Store.
Now on your Android 12 phone navigate to Settings > Default apps > Browser app.

}
Set Better Open With as your default browser.
Now go to Settings > Default apps > Opening links and turn off the “Open supported link” toggle for every app that supports verified links.
That’s it. Now whenever you open a link, you’ll see the familiar Complete Action With dialogue listing out all the apps that can handle that link — just like in previous Android versions.
Even if you’re not running Android 12, “Better Open With” is still a great replacement for the system app chooser as it gives you more customizations and control.

Nice app. I've been using it for a couple of years and didn't see any difference when moved to A12 as the app is my "a must". That's why I was so surprised when I read the the news about A12 unusual link handling.
Happy to know I'm on the right side.
Thank you. very helpful for me 🤝🏼

Android 13 will make switching between user profiles a whole lot easierA few weeks ago, we learned that Google was planning to introduce a new keyguard profile switcher in Android 13. At the time, we saw screenshots showcasing what the feature could look like upon release. And now that Google has released the first Android 13 Developer Preview builds to its Pixel devices, we have some additional info.
As seen previously, the keyguard profile switcher will appear as a drop-down menu on the lock screen PIN/password/pattern entry page. Tapping on the drop-down menu will open up a list of user profiles on the device, allowing you to switch profiles even before unlocking the device. According to Esper, the keyguard profile switcher is disabled by default but is controlled by the SystemUI boolean ‘config_enableBouncerUserSwitcher’. Here’s what it looks like once enabled:
Screenshots: Esper
At the moment, we’re not sure if this new keyguard profile switcher will be available on Android 13 for both phones and tablets. It makes little sense for Google to release it for phones because they’re typically single-user devices. But it will prove to be a handy addition on tablets, as they’re often shared by multiple users.
Speaking of guest profiles, Android 13 is also making it easier for users to install apps while setting up a guest profile. Users will now see a new option called “Install available apps” when setting up a guest profile. Tapping on it will open a list of available apps, allowing users to easily install them in the guest profile. Thankfully, data will not be shared between the owner and guest profiles, which means that guest profile users will need to sign in to the installed apps following the setup.
Screenshots: Esper
Along with the keyguard profile switcher and the new guest profile setup option, Android 13 also enables lock screen rotation on large screen devices. As Esper notes, “Android’s framework configuration controlling lock screen rotation has been set to “false” by default for years, but it is now enabled by default.” However, the lock screen will only rotate on large screen devices. Here’s what it looks like:

These aren’t the only new features and changes included in Android 13 DP1. In case you missed our previous coverage, Android 13 DP1 also introduces a Gboard-like clipboard auto clear feature, two new home screen layouts for the Pixel launcher, a Camera Obfuscator app, a redesigned media player UI, and more. You can learn more about these features by following the respective links.
