MIUI system Launcher Alfa - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I try to install MIUI system Launcher alfa, that I also have on Redmi note 7, and I can not install it.
I want to have swipe up to app drawer like Poco or Nova Launcher have..
Is anyone using this option and how to setup or install MIUI system Launcher alfa to have swipe up to app drawer..?

Won't happen on Chinese ROM. Try Poco Launcher, that will work.

Pixel Launcher w/ swipe-right feature [no root]

You can now install a modded Pixel Launcher with swipe-right (Google Now-feed) feature on Moto G5 - no root access necessary!
App shortcuts won't work, tho (only Android 7.1.x).
Important: uninstall original Pixel Launcher first (if installed as user-app apk)! Download
Enjoy!

MIUI 11 and APP Drawer

I really hoped that we will get swipe up to app drawer with MIUI 11 in system Launcher but we not..
I found the way how to activate it anyway..
For all those who also want to have app drawer I will write instructions..
First download from play store and install Activity Launcher..
Also download from Google and install MIUI system Launcher alfa latest version..
Open Activity Launcher, wait to load apps ,then go to system Launcher and open HOME..
You will get to choose between swipe up and normal launcher.. choose swipe up and you will have swipe up to app drawer..
For me working fine , without bugs..
Check the attachment.. follow screenshots..
Just download and install the following:

or use Poco Launcher it's more better and also the same

Question Is there a fix for gestures when using a custom launcher?

So I tried using Nova Launcher and then disabling gestures but they don't work at all anymore. Every time I reboot my phone again, the home/back buttons come back again. Any fixes for that?
I use nova launcher and the gestures work perfectly, so only the gestures in the nova launcher. If you want to use native gestures, you must use the poco launcher.
In order to provide gestures properly the app needs to have privileged permissions. This means it needs to be a system app. A custom ROM (on a different phone) had an app called quick switch which changed the chosen launcher to a system app and then rebooting.
In short: try to use root and an app to make nova launcher a system app

I will try that and report back. I don't think it will fix the problem with rebooting+ home buttons appear again but at least making it usable without a third party app (using Fluid Navigation Gestures)
I found a way. For anybody wondering, here are two links with a tutorial on how to do it:
MIUI 12.0 - MIUI 12.0/12.1/12.2/12.5 STABLE RELEASE
Hi, can someone tell why my mi9t pro give me "up to date" when yesterday realised a new 12.5? And is it save if i download manually and install directly from "choose update package" to move from 12.0.6.0 QFKCNXM to 12.5.4.0 RFKCNXM? Hello =>...
xiaomi.eu
MIUI 12.0 - MIUI 12.0/12.1/12.2/12.5 STABLE RELEASE
Thank you... If the only way to make an App 'System' is to create a specific Magisk module ... I honestly don't know if I'm capable of it !! :-\ I made the Magisk module for you => MiRadio-v1.1-Magisk.zip ;) EDIT: Update to v1.1 -> Added "com.miui.fmservice" app

Maybe this can get stickied for people to have it idk.

You cannot use Gestures in any launcher other than the default MIUI launcher.

To further this: it can be done if the app is a system app and supports providing recent apps (built for android 10+). Maybe try rooting and converting the Poco Launcher to a system app?
My Mi 11x is rooted and running Xiaomi.eu rom stable Miui 12.5.4.0. Strangely because of altered file structure in android 11 root files cannot be altered. My device is rooted with Magisk.
If anybody can help about how to overcome this problem it will be greatly appreciated...

How is this related to the full screen gestures thread?
to paste nova launcher app into /system/app in order to convert it into system app (to enable android gesture with nova launcher)

Well I tried this by moving Nova launcher apk file into system/app folder and changing permission to rw-r-r. But still full-screen gesture support is disabled every time I set nova as the default launcher. Any solution that u know of?

Yes that does work but i wanted something with recents support.
I'm looking for the same thing, it's agonizing not being able to choose the apps grid from the drawer, and I also don't understand why Lawnchair didn't add support even if it's experimental to android 13

Doesn´t work with quickswitch!
You can install it but the recents are very glittery and no smooth as it should!

without quickswitch the launcher is poorly integrated into the system, it is preferable to use the stock launcher than a launcher that is blinking because it is conflicting

thanks! Just tried it out but seems like lawnchair crashes when tried to swipe up from nav bar (have an OP11) and opening app animation are really stuttery. I might have to wait till things are a bit more polished before hopping back on this.
