[Q] Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher?

Hello,
Has anyone tried the Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher released for Nexus 5 on their Note 8.0?
"To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. "
If so, is it working ok? how's the performance with the new launcher?
Thanks for your help :good:

I'm currently using the launcher as my daily driver, and aside from a couple bugs (app drawer seems crowded, and the keyboard pops up randomly upon returning to home), it runs rather well. I'm enjoying this psuedo-Kitkat UI!

Could you please post some screenshots? Thanks!

Sorry, I cant. When I try to upload screenshots, it says it has the incorrect JPEG file extension. Can you download the launcher?

Wrong section..sorry..

The launcher runs fine. and looks ok,
I have gotten too used to touchwiz to like anything else,
however, this can also be used as an app i.e hitting back button does not close it.In that way it provides most of its functionality on demand and serves good for hands-free operation when needed, though s-voice did that kinda similar too.
App Drawer does not have any menus or settings so nothing much to write home about there, other than it's obviously different.
I have it set up minimally for reading stuff only (news and books) and here are screen shots.

Hello guys,
The NokiaZLauncher seems to be released some hours ago
Its still an pre-beta app but the launcher still doesnt allow widgets but maybe in the future.
The launcher also works with gestures and learns a bit from your actions and predict it in the future to get it easier for you,
By simply drawing a Letter like T will preview a list with apps,names with the T after 4 gesture letters it is also going through google so its pretty advanced if you ask me. Its really a troll action from Nokia to microsoft lol. Have fun with the launcher since maybe not everyone know it yet because there is also nothing in the apps forum here.:laugh:
It works properly on the Nexus4 btw, non rooted and stock for the guys who really want to know.

It's telling me that it doesn't support rooted devices.

No support for rooted phones.
Slow.
Only a beta.
Almost zero customization.

It's not there at all

If you Google for the apk there are plenty of links. Perhaps try side loading it?

That's probably the best round one on FaceRepo.

No but that is cool. I'm just upset the app is gone without a trace

Hi guys. Are you talking about Wear Boy 3000 watchface for Android Wear devices?
This one?

Any chance you can host it somewhere else?

Yes actually. I think I'll upload it to XDA, maybe just to this thread, or start another. But I'm not gonna support it hard...

Still waiting for that apk...

Want this

Sorry guys, it themes that it is no more compatible with the latest Android Wear version. It just does not show in the list of the watchfaces. But since the Fallout 4 release is close, I think I'll find time to migrate it to new API.

PM Plus for Honor 7

I happened to stumble across this add-on for Phone Manager in the Play Store recently. It looks legit and seems to add a genuinely useful feature or two to PM.
Thoughts? Anyone played with this?

it's an official app
i use it daily

Yes its official... Its a bit of xprivacy feeling directly coming from huawai.

I just want to let people know this:
After I installed it, all of a sudden the smart-headset button-function, as well as music controls on my Sony Smartwatch 3, didn't work for some of my music-apps. At first I thought it was a problem in the B320 firmware, but it had worked before... However, after allowing auto-launch of my music apps in the phone manager (TIDAL, for example), it worked again.
So in case anyone finds that they can't control their music via headset or smartwatch or have other issues after installing PM Plus, go to phone manager -> app auto-lauch (this is on Marshmallow, it's called "startup manager" on Lollipop, I think) and enable the apps that cause trouble

I can not find the app in Play Store. When I open the link on my laptop, under the name of the app there is a X sign with the text "This app is incompatible with your device." When I click on the text it appears "Vodafone HUAWEI PLK-L01", my device.
Does anyone know why I got this message, why the app is not compatible with my device??

It great idea and perfect working in my OnePlus 6T.
Thank for you sharing.

Just installed it pretty cool

For some reason the app stops working for me. I'm on the 1.2.7 version, I granted root access and I selected do not optimize battery for the app and hide notification. On magisk I do set it to hide app manager after I install and set up. It works great for a short time but then for some reason it just stops. I go to the app and it says active but doesnt work, I have to stop services and then start it again. Am I doing something wrong or do people experience the same thing.

Not working for me I have oos 9.0.12 and my device is rooted how can I install. ADB method is also not working for me.

Anybody help me, it's automatically disabled,

Installed and running with all permissions granted, and the app running in my notifications tray without battery optimisations.
I don't think it works. I still see all my notification content.

Installed not my kind of thing uninstalled but still can't see notifications lol any help

Check notifications setting under lockscreen settings.
