launcher suggestions of 10 Q - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

As the title says, I've made the switch to HavocOS. I love it except for the default launcher. I was actually starting to just get used to app drawer in Miui. But I felt need to see what else is being developed for for my rn5p.
I need some suggestions on open source, free with configurable options. I don't need anything crazy like prime or what have you. Something simple but enough customization, clean and to the point.
Everything I have found I am not found of, nor was it free. Any suggestions would be alright, alright, alright.
Its Heineken, not Heineken't.

Got my OnePlus3, missing features...

Hi,
Just switched on OP3 from OPOne.
Actually, a bit disappointed, as some very good app and features are missing in OP3, namely:
- dialer is not integrated with TrueDialer. That option was available in the latest version on OPO, very useful.
- no User Profiles feature, also used a lot
- after removing google search bar can not move any icon on that free space, bug?
Any suggestions, how to handle these issues?
Other then that pretty interesting and decent phone.
Thanks!
Yup it this issue also in my op3
u can download true dialer u can pm me for an apk
i use in place of the real dialer with no issues
about the launcher, u can use Nove Launcher in place of also, it is a great launcher, i use google now card instead of the search bar

Yeah, the integrated TrueDialer is no longer an option, but you can download the app and set as default dialer. I side loaded the Google dialer, which is working perfectly. I absolutely love the Google ID function.
There is an ability to have User accounts. It's in the system settings. Not sure if this is what you're referring to?
And not sure about the Google search bar empty space either. I use Nova. Lol.
True Dialer and profiles are Cyanogen features, not specific to the OPO. I find the one plus launcher limited also so I use Nova launcher.
What is the best app for profile switcher? The one in OPO was pretty handy, even though with some bugs.
I also use nova, and plan to use it on my OP3 when it arrives, and I really detest TrueDialer. It was a piece of bloatware of Cyanogen, so I'm glad I don't have to remove it and replace it with the AOSP dialer, so glad to know it's gone
About the profiles, I didn't use them that much, but I guess we'll need to check the settings as js said.

I got it running and no issues with the ROM itself, I like it alot, but the whole playstore and getting aurora to work made me give up, I was not able to get my preferred playstore apps.

Solution: Uninstall Aurora and reinstall it from F-Droid.
Before I dive in, 2 questions:
- I'm still runnin the december update, do I need to update to the januari update before I can flash Calyx?
- Is there a way to backup my current install?
Edit: I bit the bullet anyways, first updating to the Januari update, painless process, btw. I decided that I didn't care about a backup.
First impressions: Very nice looking and I saw pretty quickly that within CalyxOS you can back stuff up outside of the bootloader.
Had the 'Aurora store' bug, fixed after reinstalling it.
Gonna love exploring the OS in the coming days.
I have one question about a launcher: I have the paid version of Nova Launcher, and I'm logged into Aurora anonymously, so I can't DL paid apps. Does anyone have an alternative to Nova Launcher? I absolutely love this app (the gestures etc. are a dream) so preferably a FOSS alternative with close to the same functionality would be awesome. I have been able to migrate to FOSS/free apps for all of my paid ones, but I still can't find anything better as a launcher.
Edit2: Might have been nice for them to put a warning before flashing that it will completely wipe your phone.. I made a few last minute backups on the internal storage before flashing. Everything is lost now. Luckily I back stuff up often, but I still lost stuff, so a warning from them might've been nice.
Edit3: I now can't log into my google account (for retrieving my whatsapp backup Fixed by using another phone and copying the local backup to my Pixel) because it can't connect to the server... know error apparently, but I can't find a fix for it.
Why oh, why, do I always decide to try this stuff on a sunday evening when I should go to bed...

Just got the februari update.. the most painless update I've ever had on a smartphone. Really digging CalyxOS.
About the adblockers; I already run a 'normal' VPN, so VPN based ablocking won't work, right?
Some other random questions:
Any suggestions for (preferably FOSS) keyboards? I currently use love swiftkey, but I refuse to sign up to download skins, can't seem to restore my backup, and I don't trust Microsoft. I can't seem to find a lot of open source ones.
I also have some shared calendars from google that I unfortunately need to use, but I don't want to sign in to google on my phone. Any tips to get this to work? I can import regular google calendars into my nextcloud, but not the shared ones.

About the adblockers with VPN - you can utilize "Secure DNS" option in Android. I highly recommend NextDNS or BlahDNS for no-logging, adblocking DNS service.
As for the keyboards, there are AnysoftKeyboard (has swipe), OpenBoard and FlorisBoard. I am using Anysoftkeyboard and I am pretty happy. I'm beta testing it, and new version should be out soon. Also, Calyx has a firewall feature that allows you to block internet access for any app you want. Just go to the Settings -> Apps and then Data Usage and you can block Swiftkey from there. Calyx Team is currently working on a better UI for firewall, should be out in the following months.

I'm liking Anysoftkeyboard so far. I only wish you could remove the smilie and voice buttons, that would make the spacebar a bit wider.
Will the scureDNS stuff work nicely with a VPN, since they use their own ones, AFAIK. I got it to work, just wondering if it doen't mess with the security of the VPN.

You can delete the smiley button. Look in "bottom" layouts, and pick minimal or classic

I love using Anysoft Keyboard
I just tried calyxos first time it today myself for 8 hours today. It ha sbeen very nice so far, although most of that 8 hours went in to setting everything up.
Soemthing I hate is that the google camera apk from aurora store is super old.. Ibut that is not calyxos fault.. Probably not that the small arrow to lower the keyboard is ont he left side and doesnt seem to be adjustable either..?
Will have to look around for some safe place to download a more recent gcam or I guess use some port.. Too bad I heard the ports are always buggy and bad and since I got a true pixel for the first time ever I was looking forward to run it with the best possible camera software.

I went ahead and installed the latest official Google camera software from apkmirror. I didnt want to go through the rabbithole of finding what port is the least broken, while also getting the latest and greatest update wise..
Altough now that I've used it for a few days im suspecting I don't have HDR. I cant find any options with HDR anywhere in the app, so maybe something wrong as I heard that if you run googles own gcam on custom roms (I guess calyxos as well?) You loose HDR?
Also its quite annoying that you have to use Google photos to o preview the pictures and I don't want to use that.

I can just say that downloading the version 8.1 linked in the thread I referred to in my previous post should make you happy... I just tried it and all seems to be working without any hassle. And it does not look like leading you to a rabbithole.

I guess that is why people are porting the app. I have working HDR (at least the option is here and can be switched, how to make sure that hdr is ok btw?) and I can check the photos with the alternative gallery apps, or at least with the default gallery. There is an option in GCam to allow using gallery other that Google Photo.
May I ask why Google photo is a problem? Looks like you can block all privacy-concerning behaviors...
Then, more generally, I am running CalyxOS with default microG settings on this device since two weeks and everything is just perfect. All is working perfectly and the battery consumtion is really good.
Great job! Perfect ROM for me on this device.

Exciting! I just went ahead and downloaded the gcam mod you linked to, latest version.
I was already quite happy with the camera just moving from a xiaomi Mi 8 with lineage - using the f-droid open camera only.. Totally worthless experience imo..
At first glance there is definetly more options here including HDR. However the third party picture viewer is still not optional..
Honestly you are right I could use google photos and just remove internet access but I would rather not.. But if Im forced I guess I must.. Did you do anything special to get third party gallerys to work?
About the calyxos on pixel 4a 5g .. I absolutely LOOOOVE it man.. It is lightyears ahead of lineage experience that Ive had past 2 years. Love it!

Question 3rd party launcher (Nova) - Not being able to tap icons for a short time after returning to the home screen

Title says it all ... I had already reported this in another thread somewhere ...
However, I was not aware that this is actually a Google issue, explained here:

Many of you probably knew this, I did not ...
Still, I used Nova on OnePlus 8 pro as well and there such issues were NOT present.
Anyway, looks like we'll just have to accept it.
I've not experienced these issues on my P6P. I'm trying it now and Chrome and Pocket Casts seem to open up immediately. Same with the other listed issues: Clear All is there, and the animations look just a fluid.
Nova is working fine on my P6P, i can return to the home screen and open something else instantly.
Gestures have worked fine with Nova for some time, they worked from the off on my Pixel 5 and that was in October 2020.

I know the delay you're referring to, it's certainly a minor annoyance but not enough of a deal breaker for me to no longer use Nova - the benefits outweigh such a con!
I'm intrigued by QuickSwitch but see Nova isn't supported so unsure if this would even be able to help?

Question OnePlus Launcher

Maybe I didn't search hard enough, but anyone know if it's possible to install the OnePlus launcher on the Pixel 6 Pro? I successfully installed, but it refused to load, even one install that was reported to work on any Android phone. I'm using ProtonAOSP with gapps.
I bought a Pixel 6 Pro out of love for its superior night camera which is fabulous for catching northern lights here in Alaska, but I absolutely love the OxygenOS launcher on my OnePlus 8 Pro. It's a weird request, I know.
All I have to say is,"why?"
Coming from One+ and Samsung..... All users flash roms to come to a Pixel UI and you want a OP launcher on a Pixel? I'm stumped
I'd recommend Nova7 as it's a better fit for phones than OP launcher.
If it's a tinkering matter I totally understand,but, OP on Pixel?
You can also try lawnchair launcher 12. I was missing a few things after moving from 1+ 8 pro to P6 but lawnchair did the trick for me. Basically a pixel launcher with some more customization.

Which features exactly are you looking for?
There are several available launchers on a Pixel, I can't think of any feature set that OP has that is not available, since you can customize about anything, including icons and how animations/gestures work.
As others have said. What's the point?
Anyway, installing the APK will not be sufficient as the OnePlus launcher also relies on a number of native libraries.
You will need figure out exactly which libraries and make them available in /system/lib(64) via a Magisk module.
Too much hassle for what ...
Specifically, I really like this one touch close all apps button. It's a good visual decluttering for me versus memory issue. If I feel overwhelmed by everything I have open, tap the one button and it all feels clean again.

Closing the apps in that way is not recommended and actually worsens battery use. Doesn't do anything for memory use either really as the phone has plenty and manages it well enough. This is why it has been gotten rid of in later versions of Android.

I remember using this on my pixel 2xl. Hasn't been updated in a minute though but it will do the job
One thing i like most about One plus launcher is to hide apps with fingerprint.
Left swipe to reveal but with fingerprint.
Is there any launcher which has this feature?
Check out Ruthless Launcher
Google Play Link
It has a clear all button on the left most page of the app switcher.
Also has app locker function with fingerprint unlock.
Dev is really responsive on Telegram and the app receives frequent updates.
It's customisable - app icons support, grid options etc, loads of features including At-A-Glance and Google Feed etc. Been using it for a few years now.

Question Oneui 5 beta broke my app switcher, please help

So now my app switcher only works about 10% of the time, the rest of time it will show all the open apps as tiny little icons that don't do anything and I can't switch to any app, only go to the home screen.... I'm on the latest alpha of lawnchair and had no problems before the update. And it happens folded or open
I uploaded a video of it happening. Any help would be appreciated

I am also on the UI5 beta.
I can't directly suggest anything that solves your problem. But I can at least give you a little insight. I am using Nova Launcher. I already knew that with Android 12L and 13, Nova Launcher didn't support the new taskbar. So I also assume any other new switching features are also unsupported while using Nova Launcher. So why am I replying? The more traditional app switching works just fine for me while using Nova Launcher.
I'll be interested to learn whether other users of the full UI5 beta are having the same experience so we can understand if your experience is an anomaly or a general beta bug.
But if it is a general bug, you might want to use a third party launcher until the next beta or the imminent general release.
If this needs to be explored further, I can also try changing my launcher to Samsung's default to see whether I have the same experience as you. But first let's see what others have to say.

I also asked my question in the lawnchair telegram group and they said it's a bug with the good lock apps from Samsung and lawnchair not playing right together on the beta. So I guess I'm going to switch to nova. I used to have nova and gave it up for foss but I always missed it.

Since I've made this thread I've tried nova, action, Niagara, neo, lawnchair V2, Microsoft launcher, and I think a couple more and all have app switching broken for me.
So I made a bug report with the Samsung members app thing. Not sure if it's worth much considering how much I've debloated this device because idk how much data they can still get from me.
