Google Search update 2/7/14 - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

A bit of a surprise when I turned my phone on and my home screen's wallpaper changed.
And the app drawer 5 app workaround by chancing LCD Density no longer works.
Anybody else experiencing/ any work around besides reverting to older version?

Yes. Upsetting... I have one folder on screen and I like it in the center!!
On Nexus 5 but the only place where anyone has mentioned this.

I sometimes don't understand Google how they like to **** working things. Why do you even change app drawer and force me to have useless spaces between icons??

I'm also looking for a way to display 5x5 icons. What a shame this update!!!

GravityBox (KK) will allow you to change it

for 5x5 you had to change density to 316
now it only works density<315
try it yourself

Just tried 315, didn't work for me

Maybe when you restart your phone it will turn 5x4.

I made a couple last night but got bored because I suck at using Adobe Fireworks.
The Swirly one is from the internet somewhere (has a black background) which I ended up using in the end.
These are great but many if them have black backgrounds. Can't use them on different color backgrounds
Yeah all these don't work for me. All I see is a black square in the back

If you use a third-party launcher, just long hold the icon and press edit and then press on the icon and change it to the one you desire to change it to.

Notifications Mod.

Does anyone know of a mod i could apply that sets a little 1 in the corner of the icon, like HTC sense or go launcher has. Really miss that feature from HTC and am so over adding a desperate launcher.

i know AOKP has this option in their rom control settings if you consider flashing another rom.
Nova launcher pro will do this.

He said he wants icon count like go launcher.
..
I have no idea why you would want a mod that does something that a launcher can already do.
I cant imagine there would be a mod for it either. Its like trying to find a mod that makes the power button turn the screen on and off.

I want it for the aesthetics. I am happy with my theme and home screen. Don't want another launcher. I compromised with lock screen notifications. I find this even better cuz now i don't even have to unlock my phone to know whats up when I've been away from my phone for a bit.

Xposed app Settings >>>>SPLIT SCREENS!!

What's up?
Not sure if anyone has tried it yet, but I am a big fan of split screens in Gmail and settings. I used Xposed with the app settings apk and changed the dpi and dp and was able to get split screens. See screenshots below. Used 300-350 for the dpi and 800x1280 for the dp.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
I think you are the first time to use dpi setting apps... It works on any device with any rom for long time ago, not only our G Pro. For "split screens", it depends on apps' resources supporting tablet layouts or not.

It's a great app most definitely. Love the difference from hd to full hd.

No, not my first time using dpi tweaks. But first time for app specific dpi tweaks. I was just posting this in case someone was wondering if the app settings apk in Xposed worked or not.

Yeah the xda app removes the transparency layer.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
In your browser, click the icon picture. Save the icons from the popup picture viewer. Long press the icon and save. It keeps transparency.
i noticed the phone icon edges was not pretty. Here is a pretty a version. I was bored so I re-created it in ps (vector). If you need a bigger size or better quality, PM me. xda image uploader is not friendly with png.
Very coooooool

Droid-Life just posted some KitKat icons/wallpaper/UCCW widget.
Here's the link:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/1...-kit-kat-look-with-these-icons-and-wallpaper/
I didn't test this, because I am on MIUI, and I have no backup. Can anyone test this vrtheme out and tell me if phone and app drawer are properly replaced with 4.4 icons and kit kat wallpaper is added to the stock wallpapers?
You have to be in stock launcher
Thanks!! If it works I will create another thread so everybody can see it Waiting your answers!!!
Looks good, I may give these a go over Nox for a few days and see how I like them.
Looks nice
It looks pretty cool thanks :good:

Can someone tell me if that's normal.

OK,
So my nexus 7 have been rooted and unrooted a lot of times, I know how the process works.
And I don't think my problem comes from there also.
Yesterday I unrooted the device , I flashed back the factory image, the latest one, all went well.
And today I changed the lock screen widget with another one, but I noticed one thing , the kitkat lock screen shortcut to access the camera was gone.
So I deleted the widget and got the stock clock back on he lockscreen hoping it would solve my problem, but it didn't.
So I did a factory reset, and still not there.
Since I had no chance with the method that I took I reflashed the factory image, and still not there.
Like you see in the picture there is no camera shorcut at the bottom of the lock screen like its supposed to on KitKat.
What should I do?

I don't have a camera shortcut on my lock screen, and never did.

Yes. You can enable lock screen widgets in the security settings. It's not going to automatically add a camera widget though.

There is no camera lockscreen widget on the stock Nexus 7 2013 rom and there never was.
