Yes

when going to app drawer, the animation doesn't look like it is coming from bottom the screen, it looks like buttons just flash... even after changing animations speed values in developer settings, still the same speed
I'm using art runtime, is this the problem? (ROM and kernel in signature)

install the previous version over the current one if u have the google play store's GNL latest version in apk form....otherwise u have to uninstall and then redownload the launcher from play store..

With Xposed GEL Settings you can do it Without flashing anything, from GEL downloaded from Play Store, but congratulations by the job.

Pixel Launcher/theme in Oreo?

Alternatively, you can install the official Pixel Launcher from here:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/pixel-launcher/
I have it running on my device without root, bear in mind that the Google Now panel will not work
And that you need to enable developer options to use the "Change Icon Shape" feature
:good:

Hi.
I've tried this method a few times and it says "app not installed" after downloading and installing it?
I'm not rooted, anything I need to be changing in settings?
Thanks

It works for me, I installed it on both stock Oreo and Nougat
This is the one I am using, its the latest on the site
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...el-launcher-odr-4023749-android-apk-download/
Although I believe there should be a new one from the official release of O on the Pixel
One thing mentioned in the comments there is that the package name conflicts with the rootless pixel launcher.
So if you have another Pixel or O launcher installed, you need to uninstall it before installing this one

There's also a modded Pixel Launcher with Google now and round icons, but not nearly as much customization as Lawnchair. That's what I'm using. Can find it on Android Police and I think in the apps section on xda

Weather widget isn't working

I've had the latest official Pixel launcher from apkmirror installed on Android M and O, and the weather widget has worked. You'll have to wait for a while for it to appear instead of the date widget. Very rarely it disappears, maybe once in a month, but it will come back soon.

I think it wants device position (GPS) and then it works... I haven't checked for how many days it keeps the weather update.

Pixel Launcher 2 Rom's AOSP

Hi guys
Today i will show you how to have the new launcher from Pixel 2.
This apk is working in Android 7.x .x
You can try in Android 6.x.x
Enjoy ( Install as normal apk )
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz8Gwis2qhfrenhFSDNqUDdWTDA/view?usp=drivesdk

Grand Prime's DPI is too small for the Pixel 2 launcher, so the search bar does not have any margins at the bottom.

I cannot get the theme, it's deleted!

Replace it with your default launcher. I think it's Launcher3. Replacing should work because the both of them have same package signature.

This problem is this:
You have the old pixel launcher installed by defect,
You need uninstall it, then install the pixel launcher 2.

The stock launcher that is preinstalled on the ROM. You have to replace it with the Pixel 2 Launcher. I am not sure about RR but on my AEX the stock launcher is Launcher3. Maybe RR is also running Launcher3 as most of the AOSP is bundled with it. So replace it from
/system/app/Launcher3.

Thank u both of u..
Uninstalled old pixel launcher solved the problem

Nova Launcher

I need to use nova launcher as default . Can anyone guide me?
I have checked the default apps but there is no option of nova launcher even I have installed it
It works only for one time when I open launcher then it redirects to stock again

Chinese ROM or others?

When using Nova Launcher, swiping up to return home (gesture navigation) first opens the recent tasks screen, moves it one app to the right, then goes to the home screen.
The default launcher works without a problem, but its interface is significantly more cluttered than Nova so I'm hoping that I could keep it

You can't then. If it is other variant then you could use because Huawei has blocked 3rd party launchers in emui 9 on Chinese variants

There is a work around to use it.
First install nova launcher
Then uninstall stock launcher using ADB.
Press on home screen it will ask for default launcher then set nova launcher as your default launcher.
Thus you can use not only nova launcher but any other launcher too.

No, I don't. I find them frustrating and pointless so I can't really give you an answer.

I've got the global version and every time i tried to install a new launcher comes back to the stock launcher and showed me this message
"Smart Recovery
Your phone has just recovered from a serious error caused by "name of the launcher it is strongly recommended that you uninstall this app to make sure your phone returns to a stable state".
I managed to install another launcher, but I do not know what I did that now I get that message

latest pixel 3 launcher for s9?

hey, what's the latest pixel 3 launcher available for the s9? I downloaded some apks from the apk mirror but they don't work.
same thing with the google phone apk

As far as I know you need the Google framework to get those apps to work.
There's a Google Phone port available here on XDA, as for the launcher I would use Lawnchair V2.

Google Framework is available as a Magisk Module under Downloads.
You can also get Digital Wellbeing from there!
