Thanks. This isn't working for me. I followed the procedure and al it did was remove the ability to view recent apps completely for me. Did you uninstall the OP Launcher before installing the older version OP Launcher? Or did you simply download and install the older OP Launcher without uninstalling the newer version first? Also, I don't appear to have the ability to uninstall OP Launcher.

You should be able to disable the OnePlus launcher with ADB. Give that a try.

You don't really need to uninstall OP Launcher. Just go into the App Info and click on the 3-dot menu in the top-right corner, you'll see the "Uninstall Updates" option.
install an older version from apkmirror on top and you're all set!

I use Widgetlocker and i try it with titanium backup, I can uninstall htc lockscreen but I dont find how to remove AOSP lockscreen

Try 'No Lock' from the Play Store:

Removing the initialization of the AOSP lockscreen in android.policy.jar would be easy...but dont know if it will cause further issues.

@akaSStalkALEX this posst is for how to enable google assistant not the launcher. And for that also you need to have custom recovery installed and its for androind 7.0+.
Heres apk you can install dont need root just google page on left is not working it needs to be installed as system app to be working.

For activate weather goto settings>apps>show system apps from top right menu>find pixel launcher app and grant all permission and it will work.

I granted all the permissions already and its still not working. I am using xperia z2 existenz 5.0 deodexed
after opening the menu the background is white in colour .. that's pretty annoying , will it be possible for me to change it to black , or may be transparent ??
Works like a charm on my Z3 existenz 5.6.5 no problem at all
For peeps who's fail or got issue please give info what ROM, odex / deodex I'm sure it'll help Dev while porting an app
can we get 5 apps on the dock? like the real pixel?

Okay, thank you very much for the clarification, I got it. What do you think will there be any possibility to work it without root in future?
Hey is the shortcuts function included in this version?
It doesn't work for me!
How come it only has 4 icons in dock and not 5. Grid size is also 4x5
I revert back to leaked Launcher3 coz have 5 apps on the dock
simple solution for who want 5 apps on te dock is edit the display density to 280 dpi
unrooted device: adb shell wm density 280
Plz add 4x5 drawer app and hide app options
Everything working fine on my Z5.
Thanks a lot!

Reduce your device's dpi to a lower dpi than the current one.

Pixel Launcher/theme in Oreo?

Is any chance to instal Google Pixel Launcher on Oreo without rooting?

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.

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

Alternate launcher???

Has anyone been able to run an alternate launcher?
I see this empty list on the Default App / Home Screen Apps setting...
PS I have the RMX1991 Chinese version.
Same here, hope it will be fixed in some updates, or maybe some genius might find a way to root this device
