CPL launcher issue - Samsung Galaxy S9 Questions & Answers

Hi. I recently replaced Nova with CPL launcher. I liked how quick it was and how less RAM it consumed. Im using a s9
The issue is when i return home from an app or just goto home. I am unable to click anything on screen. The app icons are unresponsive but when i swipe it a bit from left to right or vice versa, it works.
This is really annoying. I have to swipe a bit and then click on an app icon.
Do u guys know why this happens? Any fixes?

It's probably not compatible. The developer says this
"The application was developed for devices with a 'clean' android, so the successful launch and operation of all functions on third-party shells (MIUI, EMUI, Samsung Experience, etc.) is not guaranteed"
The app also requires admin rights if you haven't enabled them.

(Q) Start menu equivalent.

One of the things I miss most from winmo is that, on WinMo, you always can access your 'all programs' drawer from the notification bar/start menu. You could use your phone heavily all day and only see the Home screen once.
I've searched high and low for an Android equivalent, but find nothing. Anyone know of anything?
Closest I've found is multitask manager, it attaches to search button, and let's you put preferred apps in it, but you can't put 'launcher' or 'rosie' in it.
Anyone know what I'm trying to describe? Or have any suggestions ?
Thanks
Also, I just realized this is probably in wrong subforum, toast or MOD, feel free to move it. Thanks. Sorry.

i am not sure the question here. are you saying you want it so that you have to go to the home screen to launch the app draw or are yous aying you dont want to have to go to the home screen to launch the app draw?
I am not sure what you are using but i dont have to go to the home screen to launch app draw. also you may try playing with launcher pro you can set up the dock to have apps on it. i use a combination of app organizer and launcher pro. I have the favorites group mapped to my dock and then i can favorite apps and get to them from that dock button. Works well for me.
I think you can set up the Power Strip app to show your app drawer.

He means he wants a universal way to access the app drawer from anywhere. In WinMo, the start icon / app drawer is always on the status bar.
Yeah, awardtour, you nailed it. Thanks. I see i accidentally used a double negative in my OP, making it confusing.
Yeah, i want to be able to launch my app drawer from the notification bar, or search button (any 'button' that is always present).
I use adw EX and LPP a lot, but have never found a way, within android, to acheive this functionality. If anyone knows, please share. Thank you.

I'm not sure of the name, but I'm pretty sure there's a gesture based app launcher on the market (or maybe here) somewhere that allows you to program a gesture to a app launcher so no matter what you're doing you can swipe the gesture and have an app menu come up. I'll see if I can find it for u.....

Zeam launcher has something like that, but you'll have to be on one of your homescreens though...

Alright, this is what I was thinking of. Create a list of apps, call up via gestures from anywhere.

It actually looks pretty cool. I think I'm gonna buy it. I'll report back and give my opinion
Did you try this app alt. drawer?

Thanks guys.

Hey, I tried wave launcher, its free on getjar right now. Its EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! !!! Thanks for the suggestions. You can launch the wave no matter where you are (i.e. browser, messaging, app, etc) and and can have the app drawer button on the wave.
Hell, without even using the wave aspect, if you just hold the hotspot for a sec (to launch wave) it'll automagically open app drawer! !!!! Pure awesomeness. Just thought I'd share and thank.

Bottom dock problem?

I feel like an idiot asking this, but I tried looking on my phone left and right...
On the bottom of the home screen with the 3 apps, the middle one directs you to all of the apps on the phone..But I lost that, and now its just a star..How do I restore it? Thanks!
PS-Any settings for this?
What rom are you running? Im going to guess cm6. If i recall from memory you just need to hit menu on the home screen then select settings. On that list goto launcher or something like that its been a while since i ran cm. Anyway there is options for the launcher and soft keys there.

I recently ran into this problem while using ADW. At your home screen long click and add a custom shortcut. then select adw launcher actions, then chose open/close app drawer.. once thats on your home screen click and drag the icon to the drawer... you should be all set, of course that is if you are using ADW
I would of never figured this out. Thanks so much my friends!

[Q] go launcher ex - screen sensitivity problems???

so, just got my phone looking and feeling pretty much how I wanted it using go launcher but I am noticed that either i have a problem with screen sensitivity or there is a problem with go. I am finding that i have to click some icons several times to launch them, seem worse in drawer.
Anyone else finding that the get the audible click but nothing happens?
EDIT: switched back to ADW and everything is back to normal, gotta be an issue with GO..
No. The only problems I've had with Go Loauncher EX is that there was a lag between the start of a horizontal swipe and the homescreens starting to swipe - resolved once I stopped the wallpaper from scrolling too, and in the app drawer sometimes a long press doesn't launch "edit mode".
Other than that it's all gravy...
odd, my problems disappeared when moving back to ADW. Cheers anyway though.
+1 haha i thought it was just me that was having this issue.when you select something on launcher it indicates the touch with the glow but nothing happens?press couple times and it will open.that is what i was having.was making think i was having lag.went back to touchwiz not a issue.
+2 Hot damn, I thought I was going crazy.
Edit: I emailed them about it but it definitely goes away with a different launcher
cool hopefully they will have a fix in no time.those guys work hard.its hard to go back to touchwiz after go.i also use there go pro messenger.built in backup etc like the laucnher.
Having the same "lag" problem.
So, we're all NOT crazy
Cant say I have had this issue and I have been using GO Launcher for quite some time now.
Yes, I noticed this bug also.
I'm using go launcher ex for some time and this came out since 2-3 weeks.
I hope they will fix it soon.

I am having the same issue here. Gestures are disabled but that didn't help (even after restarting phone). Used to have Launcher Pro Plus which didn't have this kind of behavior.
Sent dev an email though.
Same observations. Especially bad for icons in the dock. I have always disabled gestures.
+1 I also have this problem from time to time. First I tought it was me missing the right spot on the screen, but it must be a bug.

UI customization

I just got the LG G4 recently and really getting a kick out of tweaking it. I have DashClock download, and the Appsii for a side bar notification (still tweaking).
Currently I'm trying to figure out how to make my main icons on the bottom of my screen to slide down when not in use, or hide on my screen. I dont want to remove them, just have them slide away and only have the home back page and notification button on the bottom of the screen. Trying to go as clean look as possible without having to install a different launcher, want the least amount of software possible to make it run smoothly. Are there any widgets that make this possible?
Thanks in advanced!
Concept of what I'm trying to achieve.

Don't think its possible without a launcher or xposed installed. I may be wrong

That's what seems to be the case, I had Nova Launcher Prime on my last phone so I just reinstalled in on the new phone, haven't figure out how to make the dock auto hide. People say you can make the dock hide with a swipe or gesture, have yet to figure that out.

I was able to figure it out with gestures, it's really cool to make the dock hide like i want now, love it, gives my phone a super clean UI. No junk on the home page, just the soft keys, trying to figure out how to make a side dock or drawer with Nova Launcher now to bring up my apps without having to select the app drawer key that's currently sitting in my hideaway dock. Want to get rid of it there and put icons I deem more functional to my use, currently its phone, contacts, app drawer, messaging, camera. Want it to be phone, contacts, firefox, messaging, camera. But I need a way to get to my apps and so far the only way is thru the app drawer that way. Wanting to keep my home page clean and junk free.

Use a gesture from novas settings to open the app drawer

Swipe Navigation

Hey all,
I've been using an app called Swipe Navigation and heavily recommend it. For those who don't know, it's a great way of saving space at the bottom of the screen and a great way of navigating through the phone and using custom actions, if you want them. Do check it out!
For those who are using it, is there any way to get rid of the "System UI has stopped working" message? It appears about twice a day so not a big deal, but still not ideal for a €750 phone.
Thanks!
Contact the developer of the app.
Done through Play Store. I was wondering if there's some app setting which may be causing the conflict.
I loved this App on my Nexus 6P. If i remember correctly, it worked best via Xposed. Hopefully we see Xposed for 7.1.1 sooner than later.

Sadly there's no way to permanently disable the stock navbar for now, there are apps that only hide it.
I found mod in this thread for NMF26Q which also works on NMF26O. This mod is the framework mod with zero dpi navbar. This works for me. I finally got rid of navbar without systemUI crashes.
