Hello guys.
I experience an annoying bug which im not able to fix in and way.
The dock of nova launcher (prime, version 2.2.2) is hella buggy! I cant add icons, i cant move icons and the background is black, showing traces of Evers movement i do like swiping to the right or left.
Does some1 know a fix or something? Its very annoying and i would like to customize my homescreen.
EDIT:
I have this bug on every launcher. Even the stock one (trebuchet, running carbonrom with android 4.3.1)
Uninstall it and download the apk I hope it works

Did you fix it? I can move the icons out of the dock but can't add them again!
I have the same problem... !!
I've had it on other ROM's before, but not sure exactly what caused it. I can remove icons from the launcher dock, but cannot add / replace them with anything. They seem to stack up on the dock, but do not actually launch anything.
Running CarbonROM -- Nova Launcher seemed to be ok. I added a coule modules to Xposed Framework, but haven't been able to figure out exactly what broke it yet. I'll keep messing with it. If I find the solution, I will let you know.
If anyone has any input, please advise!
Edit: I disabled all of the Xposed framework modules+reboot -- still didn't work. Uninstalled all framework modules and framework+reboot then uninstalled+reinstalled nova launcher. I still have the same problem, but it's not a problem directly related to nova as I have the same locked dock issue with all launchers. Going to restore from a backup and see if I can recreate the problem.
Update: Apparently the only backup I had had a broken dock also, so it had nothing to do with anything in Xposed as far as I know. I sure would like to know how to fix it if it ever happens again tho!
A possible fix
I had a similar problem running Paranoid Android on my Nexus 4. After a bit I discovered that it only happened when I had the navigation bar hidden, hope that can fix your problem too.

I deactivate Immersive mode, so I can edit the dock in Nova; after I edited it, I reactivet Immersive mode.

Unhidden the soft keys/navigation bar, the dock became OK.
When you fixed the dock, you can hide the soft keys again.
PS: I use a Galaxy Nexus.

I find mini apps tray (show / hide dock at bottom), with apps showed that I couldn't modify, quite annoying. Searched internet for solution - modifying it or removing it fully, but no success...
Does anybody have an idea how to remove or modify this tray?
Thanks.
I've no clue what you are referring to. "Mini Apps Tray" is a feature of Touchwiz UX 4.0 though.
Hehe, what you see is the apps you have used recently. Do some search on YouTube on Honeycomb and watch so you can see how honeycomb work and how you use it

Sorry, I obviously didn't explain it good. I'm not referring to left side pop-up bar that shows recent apps, but the downside one with taskbar, calendar, clock, mini music...

On the bottom in that pic? That is touchwiz.... hasn't been released yet. So unless you are sleeping with somebody at Samsung who hooked you up, I'm confused.
How do you have mini apps tray when its not released yet?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
To the direct left of the time display on the bottom bar, sometimes little notification app icons are shown there - kinda like in windows task tray. For instance, someone at bestbuy installed some speedometer app on the tab and it showed a little icon in that area. When you tapped it it said, enable gps for speedo to work (well I'm getting a little off topic) Anyway, I could not figure out how to get it out of there and it started to annoy me because it was a really ugly icon...
EDIT: Now that I reread the original post, it does seem like he is talking about the touchwiz app tray...
Am interested to know if there has been any progress with modifiying the Touchwiz Mini Apps tray. Is it possible to add Apps to it as I can't find a way to do it at the moment?
Thanks
ive tryed an failed dono bout anyone else though
you can remove them easily and romove the miniaps tray but i cant get anything to run as a miniapp or even put a shortcut there :L

you can get them to run because it is just more then adding an app to make it work. Samsung has kept this source to themselves. so we cant change those apps until they do.

The Screenshot feature was built into the Samsung touchwiz launcher on the Galaxy Tab 10.1. There isnt one on the Tablet S yet.
no screens till now !!! wierd

Yeah, its a 10.1 thing. I'd hit that button far too much on accident, it seems silly to have it so available. I'm glad I traded my Galaxy for the Tablet S, the quick launch icons at the top are FAR more useful.
Have any of you found a way to screen cap yet?

Hi,
What's the simplest way to get a landscape picture to show completely as a wallpaper? Have tried a few on the tablet wesites but you're always asked to crop it using gallery or quickpic (if installed)
Can you please let me know a simple way to do this, or the resolution I need to alter pictures to, in order to make them fit the screen nicely?
Many thanks.

There are many threads about getting wallpapers to fit the tablet standard (1200x800) resolution. Especially, in the Xoom forums. Also, there's an app in the market called 'droidiris', which has many great hd wallpapers for tablets. Check it out! And 'all wallpapers' is good too. Just google like "android tablet wallpaper format", or something. I can't remember the 'tricks' off hand.

Hi,
I have a strange problem with my Xperia S: I have constantly popup windows opening, showing the location of (I guess) the nearest cell phone tower. I already tried to turn off all location settings, but the popup still appears, sometimes every 2 minutes.
I also did a firmware upgrade already, no success either. Does anyone have an idea where those popups are coming from???
i do have the same problem..........can someone help us out?

Goo to know that I am not the only one
Can you maybe post a list of apps that you have installed? Maybe an app is responsible for those annoying pop up messages?
Did you configure Mcafee in your phone ? Because mine shows them whem i try to locate the phone using mcafee site .
Nope, I de-installed the McAffee app as one of the first things actually...

Has anyone found a solution for this, its driving me insane, during my trip home in the car from work, I have to have the phone on silent to combat the constant updates!!
Did you check the solution with swapping SIM to older phone?
NO CHANGE
I tried putting my sim in an old S40 Nokia and disabled cell info display as well as deleted all info channels (including CH50), but still getting these Cell Broadcast messages. Looks like we all have to wait until ICS for things to improve.
I tried the sim swapping thing but it didn't work I'm still getting the pop ups is quite annoying
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
The new Cell Broadcast option in the latest 6.0.A.3.73 firmware should resolve the problem I think.

I also tried with no luck. I assume because our device isn't on the official list. I also tried changing the device selector in LMT app settings, but also no luck.
wow...Pie is cool.
I'm sure the rest of the program is nice, but I'm already using swipepad and its extensions..... I thin k I'm good!
I had no problems with gestures. I believe I used the sensation device manager. It is pretty cool, but now I only use one screen, and it is basically empty. You could also try glove box on the market as it works pretty well.

I've been using Swipe pad and its extensions for a while.... I'm trying out this new one called Swapps. It has the options to do favorite apps, recent apps and all apps... I just use it for all apps because I like the way its designed. I am using swipe pad for almost everything but after discovering LMT, I am wanting to get the most out of that
Were you ever able to get gestures to work? I cant get mine to work... wondering whats my problem.

Oh man I thought I was going crazy for not getting it to work... Glad to others have the same issue.
Sent from somewhere between being awake and asleep.
LMT does have a pretty high learning curve. I can't get it to bring up the phone dialer. When I assign the "phone app" to a pie piece, the screen just goes blank after I select it.
I did find that making the piecontrol activation area thickness a lot wider than default makes it much easier to not accidentally get the Apex/Nova launcher menu.
Hi, this is my first real thread and I hope this helps or makes someone's day
Apps like Snapchat, Instagram, Kik, among others are behind on material design. Their launch icons are not material. I am not claiming that I have found this, but I'd like to share this.
First, you will need APK Editor Pro, in the Play Store. When you open it, it will say
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you have APK with you downloaded, use it. If not use APK from app(system apps can't be used, you'll have to extract the apk or convert to user app or uninstall and reinstall).
Pick the app's icon you are going to change. I chose ROM Toolbox Pro.
When you click it, it will say this..
You'll want to click simple edit.
When you do that, you'll come up with this---
NOW read very carefully there are two ways of replacing the image.
Way 1: Find the HDPI folders.
Android apps have these folders that contain the images of the app. You can find them usually by clicking /RES folder. In ROM Toolbox Pro, the app icon is here.
We got lucky, but in some apps you'll have to replace it multiple times for multiple DPI and HDPI's.
Click the little pencil and box right next to the floppy disk(save) icon and replace the image with absolutely any image you want. I changed it already, but for the sake of this tutorial, I'll change it again.
As you can see I've already downloaded and done some apps, I'll show then at the end.
Once you pick an image,
Hit the save button.
Way Two:
Go to images, find the launcher icon, replace and save.
HINT: the name is usually either: appicon ic_launcher_icon or something along that line.
Hit the save button.
It will come up with this.
Click install and you have your custom/materialized icon!
Gallery:
Disclaimer: IF THE APP UPDATES YOU WILL HAVE TO REPEAT THIS PROCESS. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BROKEN APKS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND YOU INFLICT. GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE.
If anyone wants my APK's just ask and I'll see what I can do.

Nice post but kinda useless as apps are constantly updated so you be doing this a lot.
There is a better solution which is Desktop Visualizer from playstore.
You will only have to do the process once and it's done.

I get what you're saying, but for me, I want material design icons on stock TouchWiz, and this allows me to do it. Plus, you can change it to absolutely anything, so that's honestly my point. Using this gives us extra freedom and customization to our Android devices.
