I've recently installed Apex Launcher on my N7 and am very pleased with the extreme customization options with the exception of one thing, its petty, but it bothers me.
With the Apex Launcher lock screen, there is no option to directly unlock to google now. Does anyone know of a workaround to make that happen?
I have looked all over the Apex options but cannot find any answer. Thanks

AFAIK, Apex Launcher does not have a custom lock screen It still uses the stock one, or whatever custom lockscreen you are using.
Maybe you have installed a custom one? Or are you using a ROM with a customizable lockscreen?
Lockscreen is part of the rom, look in your rom's lockscreen settings if you're on a rom with a customisable lockscreen eg. CM10, AOKP, CNA based roms
What are you talking about? Apex doesn't affect the lockscreen. I m on stock with apex n I can slide it up n unlock to Google just fine.

Instead of starting a new thread about apex launcher I hope I can borrow your thread.
I have a question about Apex and N7, on my other devices I can hide the statusbar, but not on N7.
It works fine with Nova, but it lacks some settings.
Can you all hide the statusbar with apex and Nexus 7?

Under behavior settings I have a swipe up gesture set to toggle status bar. Works. I swipe up and status bar shows. swipe up again and it hides.
Not sure if it would help, but somewhere under Apex's options is the ability to use Beta updates instead of Stable. The latest Beta updates were re-build with Jellybean launcher standards instead, which may help with things I guess.
I just install ADW launcher, since as a themer this launcher is the iconmask feature (great feature not supported by recent launcher like nova and apex).
Anyway, is there an official thread or something I can post requested and questions ?
All I found were threads on adw theme, etc, but nothing with devs on OP...
Maybe I can ask my questions here waiting for a good guy to link me to the official thread.
I'm on android 4.2 I have 3 questions :
- When I'm in adw settings and try to get back to home pressing the back softkey, it gets stuck at the settings menu screen you guys know why ?
- according to this screenshot I lost my dock icons ? Although I ain't touching anything related to the dock in the settings. Any idea ?
- Concerning gesture, I set the 1 finger swipe down gesture to show/open notification bar, (I previously hide it in the settings) and when I swipe down the notification bar shows but doesn't open. Plus on 4.2, the 2 fingers swipe down gesture open the notification bar showing directly the toggles, but here nothing... :'(
Can you ADW users help me on this one ?
Thanks a bunch folks !
Been a while since I used ADW. Maybe try this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975764
There are a bunch of them, just search google for "xda adw".
Yep that's what I said a bunch of thread but nothing official ?

Hi, I just recently updated to the official cm11 nightly, however I find that the nova launcher is basically still themed as JB instead of KK.
Both the status bar and navigation bar are pure solid black instead of half transparent. Is there a way to fix this? I tried to download those themes for nova launcher and none of them make it half transparent like stock launcher does.

Subscribe for Nova Launcher Beta on G+ (Google for how to do it).

Problem solved, you da man!
Hello guys. I noticed that there is no option to hide apps in apps drawer after upgrading to kitkat. Any solution for this problem? No other launchers I just want default touchwiz. Thanks

You can probably create a folder and banish icons to it. Or see if the Galaxy Launcher on Google Play is close enough.
Updated to the 7.1.1 beta today. Are the round icons only appear on Pixel phones. Every article I've read said that was a feature in the beta. I am completely stock and my Icons aren't round. Am I missing something? Love the new camera update and the app shortcuts.
It's pixel launcher's privilege.. I think I saw an apk at Apkmirror yesterday about icons and pixel launcher too.
These should do the job.
I installed latest Pixel launcher apk and latest round icons app
So far the only round icon with white background I'm seeing is the calendar.
Now, regarding pixel launcher...I don't know how to make the swipe option work.
