How to set google now launcher as the default launcher - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all, i am using the prism barebone, as the ROM. I installed google now launcher, but i am not able to see it in the under home settings. All i see is the ZenUi launcher.

Think you have to install the google app first, then the now launcher.

i did install google app first.
I found the solution. Had to put google app and google now launcher in into auto startup, and that worked.
Thanks anyway ☺

To get the Launcher working you need Google App and the Launcher
Then u could start the Google Launcher from ZenUi Launchers App Drawer, press Homebutton and you should be ask what you prefer to use now.

[Q] Scrollable Widgets @ stock launcher?

Hey guys
I was wondering if the stock launcher does support scrollable widgets or not? Because some SE widgets do support it but I can't get the Plume (Twitter client) widget to work properly as scrollable widget. Is this a Plume specific issue or stock launcher? Which Twitter widget do you guys use as scrollable widget?

Hmm....in my opinion its the widget. Have you tried a different launcher?

I'll have to try another widget.... yes, I tried other launcher (like Go Launcher) and there I got no problem.
Would be nice if I could use the stock launcher, since my ROM is optimized to use that launcher (and the whole theme is in line with the stock launcher theme).

Nova Launcher

Anyone with Nova Launcher installed notice that sometimes when backing out of apps, it returns to the Touch wiz home screen instead of Nova Launcher? By pressing the home button, it does navigate to the Nova Launcher home screen, but it gets annoying after awhile. I did choose the option to make Nova Launcher my default, so not sure if there is another option I need to change.

I think it has nothing to do with Nova launcher, as I have seen it happen in Apex too. I remember reading some Samsung (?) apps on the Note do that in Android 4.3.
I had this problem with Kaiten Mail. I know the effect from Kaiten which on the last back returns to the first app and not to the last app. This was already the case on my Note 10.1
Setting Nova as default launcher and rebooting stop at least calling the system launcher, as Nova is then the first app started.

Thanks. A reboot seems to have done the trick. It's funny since I've had this tablet for almost a week and never had to reboot it like my old Xoom which I had to do every couple of days to clear up slowdowns .

Once I install Nova Launcher, I actually freeze TouchWiz Home with Titanium Backup (along with a bunch of other Sammy/TW apps I don't use). That way it never bothers me again.

[Q] Looking for Lockscreen Widget (Weather)

Hi,
I have a rooted N5X with Stock Rom 6.0.1.
Is there an app to set a small weather at the lockscreen?
Tried it with Chronus and C Locker with no effect.
Thanks
Koetermann
That is built into most custom roms. You might want to try one.
Thanks for your answer, but I would like to stay on Stock ROM.
Testing C Locker right now. But it's not easy. Can't unlock with Fingerprint.

the only thing I can recommend is using xposed + [APP][Xposed][L-M] Lock screen widgets
you can use any widget, any size/dimension. it's quite confusing at first but you'll get the hang of it.

What happens if i force remove ZenUI Launcher?

Does this Launcher requires a must have app for other ZenUI's features to work?
(eg: NotifPanel/QuickSettings, Lock Screen, Settings)
Since i am using Nova Launcher as my default Home Launcher, i don't think ZenUI Launcher will be of any use for me. So, i'm just wondering what will happen if you try to force remove it through Root? or even convert it to user app?

Best Launcher for theming

Hello Guys,
I am looking for a good launcher for minimalictic icons and modifications to menu. I would really like to use pixel lauchner but with the black theme of OxygenOS-Launcher and some custom icon packs. Which launcher you would suggest me for this purpose?
I added 2 images to show how I would like it. The one of the homescreen is photoshopped, the menu is original from OxygenOS withdark theme.
Thank you

I really like ZenUI from ASUS Used couple of times, on different smartphones and I kinda like it alot (fast, no buggy, also ok with customisation)
