NOVA LAUNCHER WORKING

[Larry Underhill]

I'm not responsible for any results of your experiments

I have Nova Launcher working on my PC. Here's what I did :

1 Installed Nova Launcher from Play
2 (ROOT REQUIRED) Used SDMaid App Control to freeze "Launcher" , and then "My Desktop"
3. When prompted, selected "Nova Launcher"

Use Apps Settings to set Nova Launcher to full-screen and you can then use custom wallpapers.

Performance seems close to expected.

Thanks to @HypoTurtle on XDA Forums for the help.

it does not work as expected. we know how it works on android-x86.

1- Scrooling in app drawer doesnt work.
2- If you change the desktop settings in Nova Launcher Settings, app confuses and everything screw each other.
3- Both live and image wallpapers cant be set to desktop. Just black screen.
4- Some widgets are buggy, while some are ok.

Tesla unread counter plugin works though. In general it doesnt worth to install.

Anyway, thanks for info.

Before you say it doesn't work, first observe the evidence:

Where is the fullscreen option in SDMaid?
Thx.

[Larry Underhill]

Click on the icon. The screen comes up. Select full screen mode.

I don't get what you mean, but thanks anyway....

Are you rooted? In SDMaid App Control if you click on the icon for any app then you will get a screen that allows you to select to open the app in full screen mode.

I didn't see the freeze option at first with sdmaid either - it's long press on app (I guess that it's right click if your mouse/touchpad is setup for rightclick=long press; mine isn't)
