Go Launcher Weather Widget

I have the Go Launcher Weather Widget running on Nova but it seems I always have to update the app manually. I have checked my settings and it updates the location just not the temperature.. is it because Im not using the correct launcher? I like Go Launcher because it is really simple and clean.
Any suggestions?

Launcher lag

Hi everyone, I just bought my g pro for about a week now n I discovered a very annoying problem!
I m currently using nova launcher, it's very smooth except when some kind of apps being installed and running. I dunno how to name this kind of apps. These apps are for example sidebar, swapps, floating notification, glovebox, swipe home or even the Facebook messenger chat head. When these apps re activated, the launcher will lag in home screen, but when u open the other apps or the app drawer, they re actually smooth, the lag will only exist in home screen. It is not only in nova launcher cut also other launcher even the lg launcher..
Do u guysn hv this problem?
How can i solve that?
Sorry for my bad English but reli need some help

I dont have any lag at all on stock launcher. Possibly you could clear the cache and resolve this. Or a factory reset. On some androids ive even heard of pulling the battery to do a hard shutdown has given desirable effects when having lag problems though I dont know why that would work. Hope you get it solved.

Not only me having this problem but my friend too
He is not using the g pro buy instead gk
So I think it maybe a rom bug

What part of the world are you located? It could be a thermal issue. Also do you have the cup optimization setting turn on?

4.3 notification center???

As I know Google added this feature to 4.3,but I can't see it after I upgraded to 4.3, and some apps e.g. apex launcher will prompt a single notification on status bar, u can't dismiss it, just show u "touch for more information. ......."
Any body know how to fix it??

Seriously, proofreading is a good thing to get into the habit of. What do you mean there is no notification center? And when I get a notification from Apex Launcher when it's freshly installed, I can dismiss it. Everything from 4.3 and the files you flashed will have everything that Google intended to be in the phone.

Sorry big brother,let me make the question more simple.
How to dissmiss this???
I faced it on 4.3 on every boot,even I disabled the notification per app.
And Brother, Thankyou your well speak, I use android from 1.6 to 4.3, thanks your senior reply.

That's a Apex launcher question. Address it to developer and use the stock launcher in the meanwhile. Or even better, Nova launcher.

Thanks, apex just released an update for this fix.

In the update notes on market it says
Ongoing notification when keep in memory is enabled (Android 4.3)

Kitkat 4.4 launcher on the Galaxy Note 3

I tried the other method on xda and notice that Google now was freezing up on voice command. Here is the method that got it fully working on my Verizon Galaxy Note 3
1. Download and extract the two files.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/j8h0siy229ixsni/4.4 launcher.zip
2. Install both apk files
3. Enjoy
Update: If you are having trouble getting the "Ok Google" voice activation to work, here is something to try.
1. In the Google launcher, go into settings > voice > offline speech recognition.
It may say there are no language packages installed, but in reality, it just needs to be updated. It seems to be buggy, but this is how I got it updated.
2. Select the "all" tab.
3. Install the English (us) package if it will let you.
If it doesn't, download English (UK), select the "installed" tab, and the us package should now show up as installed. To make sure the English (us) is updated, simply uninstall and download it again.
Once this is updated, you should be able to press the home button and see "OK Google" in the Google now search bar. Hope this helps!

Does this include Google now on the home screen like on the Nexus 5?

If you move an icon or widget to the next screen, it will add a screen. To have additional screens, you have to have something on it. If they are blank, they are deleted.

Awesome ... thank you for the info. Great find this launcher is butter

I certainly see this being a love/hate thing. I like more control of my launcher, so I am sticking with Nova. I do like the swipe to Google Now and the "Ok Google" options, though. I setup a gesture in Nova for Google Now, but don't know of any solutions for the "Ok Google" option. I would LOVE to be able to get the "Ok Google" to work with the phone on or off.

I like this launcher, it does run very smooth but I ended up going back to Nova. I like a little more customization with my launcher and Nova Prime gives me everything I could need and more. It is still a nice launcher though, to bad it doesn't have some more options.

Love it. Had some problems with it crashing or google search crashing randomly so I tried some of the version on the market which are quite good. Some little stability fixes for devices and such but for the most part 100% AOSP.

I was able to install this on my note 3, but I wasn't able to install the 2nd APK. Also, the notification bubbles no longer show up on my email, messages, Facebook, etc..... Does anyone know what could be wrong? I am not rooted.

Notification bubbles are a touchwiz feature that's why they don't show up

Put LG widgets in third party launcher

Hi, is there a way to put LG health and smart notice widgets on third party launchers? I am thinking in apex launchers, which is the one I am using now.
And in case it's not possible (or needs root, I didn't rooted yet), is there a way to open LG health app if you are not using stock launcher? I can't find the app icon in the apps list.

If you're using Nova Launcher,
Hold somewhere on the desktop
Add
Shortcut
Activities
LG Health

I don't think that it's possible to use the widgets but the app itself works. Its a shame I reaalylike it
I'm listening in if anyone has a fix

I would love to see. LG Health widget or app

There is a way to use Google Now Launcher and probably any other third party launcher and use LG Health. You'll have to download an app called Anycut which creates shortcuts. Create a shortcut and choose 'activity' and it'll let you choose LG Health. Smart Notice is unfortunately not possible yet...but I'm sure someone will figure it out.

I wonder if there is possibly some sort of hack to get the LG widgets into other launchers. I really like the calendar widget and the weather widgets are nice, too. They're the only reason I use the stock launcher.

I agree, I like the stock Weather widget and would love to be able to use it with Nova or Action Launcher.

BUMP...
I'd like to know this too. I like having an email widget to use with LG's built-in email app for my various non-Gmail accounts. However, I cannot use the widget with Nova launcher. I was able to use Samsung's email widget (w/ Nova) on my prior Note 2 device.
Can this be done if I root?

Hi, I'm waiting for the same thing... put smart notice on nova launcher... no idea?

did anyone find a solution for this?

Up....
Anyone now?

How about now? Lol.
But seriously, I'm really surprised this hasn't been achieved with ANY stock launcher widgets. Back when I had a Razr HD, the circle widget was one of those on the wish list, but never happened also. The closest resolution was to find a "clone" 3rd party app.
Does anyone have a "technical" explanation as to why this is not possible?
