Basically my app drawer is now empty and I cant figure why... Google settings app is the only exception.
The rest of my apps do not show yet they are still in application manager and all work fine
- I have checked through Nova settings, restarted and reinstalled did nothing.
- I then found that even after defrosting Touchwiz, the TW app drawer was also empty.
- I then reinstalled Google Play & Services but still the app drawer doesn't show any of my apps.
Using Nova Prime 4.3-beta7
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 Int Lte
Rooted Lollipop 5.0.1 Stock ROM
Can anyone advise if they have experienced this issue, at the very least this issue is logged.

It's been about a month since I updated to 4.1.1 and before the update I was able to hide whichever apps I wanted from the app drawer and was able to toggle hidden apps on and off. After the update all of my apps that were hidden are gone from the app drawer. And if I try the same tactic of hiding an app it disappears all the same. I can still navigate and open apps through a launcher but how can I get things back to normal. Any help? Thanks!
So I switched to nova launcher and now my recent apps is buggy. Once I clear all and I go ahead and use apps again and open recent apps, I see nothing. I have to reopen it several times to see anything....have anyone experience this?
Yes I've had that too. I'm using nova now also but can't remember if I was having the issue using lg launcher or not
I'm having this issue too, not sure if it's too blame on nova or something else though?
On 10a with the stock launcher I have to hit the recent apps button then hit it again to see what's open.
Confirmed this issue. Sometimes, hitting recents app goes to home screen instead of recent app screen.
I have no problem when using Nova and the Recent Apps list on my stock UK International SIM Free G3 when on both 10a and 10e.
Same here.
Stock, rooted.
Happens infrequently on my nexus 5 also.
So I updated my nexus to 5.0.2 today and all went well, not rooted or unlocked bootloader, stock everything. So everything looks fine except for the launcher. The app drawer in android L is supposed to be a white square with apps, but unfortunately mine looks like the app drawer from kitkat even though I updated to android L. Also on the homescreen, the menu icons are supposed to be transparent, well mine is not they are encapsulated by a black bar. I already tried wiping the cache via recovery and still no luck. Checked app updates and there was nothing.
Forgot to mention, chrome is supposed to create tabs in the recent apps drawer, but instead it looks like the one from android kitkat. I feel like this was an incomplete installation. Factory reset is last resort for me so are there any easier fixes out there? I do not want to unlock bootloader/root either.
Thanks!
I think you need to install the google now launcher from the play store, that will give you the white app drawer & should sort the icons on home screen as well. The launcher that lollipop comes with on nexus 7 is pretty much the same launcher that was in kitkat.
The chrome setting merge tabs & apps is only on phones at the moment AFAIK & not on tablet as yet.
I'm on OOS 5.0.1 with an unlocked bootloader and un-rooted. Lately I've been having issues with the Google Now Launcher where it would "blink" like it does when the app is updated and from time to time my app drawer would be empty except for the Google app (see screenshot).
Last night I found that the launcher was completely gone and the phone had defaulted to the OnePlus launcher. I went to the play store to try to reinstall it but could not find it. I then went to the play store on my desktop and searched for the launcher and it was available. I tried installing it from the desktop but nothing happened on my phone. Any ideas on whats going on?
I have been using Evie launcher even with DP11 but with recent update few days ago it is borked, even though I set it as default launcher and when I try to get recent apps by clicking on square in dock it FC's and when I look at app info in the fc warning it shows as pixel launcher not Evie, I did factory reset as well but it did not help, any ideas.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The Pixel Launcher still handles app switching even if you use another launcher, and its been broken for me too on DP4.
