Evening,
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I really can't find the answer anywhere.
I'm running the latest Purity ROM which comes with the new Google launcher.
Is there anyway I can get the stock 4.4 launcher which comes with the official 4.4 image?
I can't stand the new launcher, well at least the one that has come with the ROM. Icon sizes etc are just completely wrong.
Cheers guys.

The apk for the Google Experience Launcher. Download it and install.
Honestly, it really wasnt necessary to create a new thread for this. The amount of info you could've found on the internet by simply searching something along the lines of "kitkat launcher" is quite high. Search harder next time.
That's where you're wrong. If you read my post correctly you'd see I want the launcher that came with the factory image from Google. NOT the Google experience launcher, which came with the nexus 5.
But thanks anyway.

Ah, my bad. Excuse my ignorance.
I assumed Purity, being based off of AOSP, would come with the aosp launcher, but apparently not.
Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/download/4roil3438gbz6qk/Launcher3.apk
No it came with the new launcher from the Nexus 5 port I presume.
That's spot on, thank you very much.

Anyone know a way to find designed for tablet apps in the play store. I seem to remember a drop down box that you could separate tablet apps from all. But can't seem to find anything now
I have posted in a couple threads about this and there are at least a few people on here wondering how to get the tablet apps on the Nexus 7. There is no way to do what you are saying though - the problem is that Google Play doesn't see the Nexus 7 as a tablet but just a phone. <--- that's IMO.
i think this is the app you want https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tablifiedapps.tablifiedmarket
If you open the app store and click on apps, then swipe to the left where it says top paid, top free ...etc etc. Then you will see the drop down menu that says all apps and then designed for tablets

That's what I've seen before but now my nexus won't display it just looks like it does on my phone. Tried restarting the tablet and clearing the data but still won't show that drop down box
What play store version are you running? Mines 4.3.11

That's the version I have as well. It's not cos I have a nexus 4 on the same login is it ?
I wouldn't think so, the app should detect if it's a tablet or phone. That's weird yours doesn't.

It is odd , i thought id seen it before hence starting the thread. But like you cant understand why its stopped appearing on the store now. Might see if i can raise a bug report with google about it

Here's a screenshot of mine. I dont have the "all apps" button.
Is that a modded version of the Play Store?
i cleared the data and cache in google play services then the app store and oddly the option is back now. Not sure how long for but its working and i can see designed for tablets as an option now

Dude, is there something like that as well??? I haven't sensed that anything since being on Android. I think that it provides a list of compatible apps only on the top. Well if you just get to know the trick then just share your experience here as well.

Is it note3 specific? No issues on s3
Crashes a lot less on note3 but still does funky stuff other than crash. Note2 was problematic. Lots of crashes.

I'm getting them too.
when i click a post it chooses one above and in order to click correct i have to click on the line at the very bottom of the post or it freezes and crashes
The XDA app always sucked (especially notifications), so I switched to Tapatalk after it went free. The only thing I don't much like about Tapatalk VS XDA is that you can't "mark all as read" for certain sections suchs all the "Participated (Unread)" threads; have to either ignore or read each one one-by-one
XDA Premium is really bad. Hard to fathom how they put that out. I use Tapatalk Pro/paid whatever and it is pretty reliable. I had to start over the app every time I switch screens on XDA. It used to work okay.
Is not only on note 3, I have nexus 10, I have a same problem all time crashes...... Ironic.... Xda crashes and no body fix it

lol same here, soo annoying. I hate to ditch the xda app but thinking about using the Tapatalk app, I also really really hate the new layout/ui of the xda app. I have an older backup of the premium app (think it's like 2.2.1 or some shizz) and have always found my way around on that version. 4.doh! and above is confusing and a headache!

I guess I'm in the minority, as I use the latest XDA Premium app daily without problems, and have for over a year. The only issue I have is that sometimes when I switch to another app and then back to XDA, it relaunches the app rather than going back to whatever page I was on, and even that doesn't happen very often...

Xda has been crashing ever since I've joined xda honestly they never get it right. It's a sight by developers For Developers Yet They Can't Get It Right lol

Does it just crash randomly, or is there a specifix action that causes it to crash for you guys? I'm real curious about this now, because as I've said, I've used it on 3 different phones and dozens of ROMs and I don't think I've had it crash on me even once.

I really liked the camera app on my Asus 7" HD tablet. Tried to use the same app on my phone, but its like combination of apk and odex.
Could anyone please make these two into an apk that I can use on a deodexed ROM. Please.
For some reason the mobile XDA app isn't allowing me to upload apk files. So attaching links to the files on my drop box.

Self bump to garner atleast a few more glances that could potentially turn into something productive.
You'd be better off posting it in the General Android Forums - More eyes.

I originally posted under Apps. And then one of the mods moved it here
Bumping once more after a 2 week plus wait... Hoping some dev would notice this time atleast.

Thanks a bunch sir. I'll try that out. Ironically, I never saw this before.
To get more of the nexus experience on my GPE I went ahead and installed the Google experience launcher.
I have noticed that whenever I reboot my tablet an icon will disappear from the launcher tray. Typically it is Falcon Pro, sot Twitter app.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Sent from my LG-V510 using Tapatalk
I've had the same issue with it, although it's not specific to any app. Any icon that sits in the 6th slot (far right of the dock) will disappear on reboot.
Everything else works fine with it. Are you on stock? (I am too at present) Could be a Jelly Bean + GEL compatibility issue.
Mine is a GPE, so kit Kat, maybe it's just a thing that happens when you add the apk after the fact.
