After i updated my G5 (H850) to Android 7.0 (v20a-EUR-XX), the Google app has been renamed to Launcher3, and when it shows weather-information from Google Now in the Notification-drawer, it also says Launcher3! I always thought that Launcher3 was the launcher that OnePlus used on their phones and it's strange to see that the name Launcher3 has totally replaced the name Google from my app list and notification-drawer. Can anyone explain me this? See the attached screenshot.
Same here...

I realize this has been a topic that's been talked about a lot, especially since the LG G5 was release in April, so I apologize in advance. But I couldn't find anything that relates to my problem. This is one thing that continues to blow my mind - I don't have any option for Home and app drawer in my settings.
I've been reading article after article about the LG Smartworld app where you can download the older 4.0 Home and app drawer, however it seems performance is sub-par with it and is buggy on the G5. Also, articles state that LG finally released the UX 5.0 Home and app drawer, so why would I settle for the older version? Here's where this doesn't make sense to me, because it seems like this issue has been solved and done with - but I still don't have this option. There is no "App Updates" selection in Settings > About > Software Update. There is no "Update Center" option in About, which leads me to believe this update is for unbranded, non carrier versions of the G5. I have received one update since I bought the phone and that was just a security patch update; further checking Software Update tells me I'm up to date. I cannot for the life of me understand why I cannot find any information about this. Is AT&T blocking this update or something? AT&T blocked updates for me with my Nexus 6 and I had to perform a factory reset with my SIM removed, set up the phone via WiFi, and instantly received the update. Will I have to do something similar in order to get the UX 5.0 Home and app drawer? This is so frustrating, any insight will be greatly appreciated.
Yeah, I also have no "update center" option on my AT&T device. I run nova launcher but still had 4.0 Home and app Drawer just to have the option. After an update that was said to include UX 5.0 I removed 4.0 only to find there was no 5.0 or app drawer. Like you I look and look baut can not find anyway to obtain UX 5.0 with app drawer. I've re-installed 4.0 and continue to use Nova as it my preferred launcher anyway.
But I would like to know how I can obtain UX5.0 if anyone knows or can share the APK.
Did you figure out anything about the app drawer on AT&T?
I have sprint, but not 5.0 app drawer. My app drawer is 4.80..you could download lg world and look around
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/lgele...elease/smartworld-5-1-2-android-apk-download/
UX 5.0 is the entire SystemUi not a launcher. The stock launcher pre-installed is part of UX 5.0 so if you want the app drawer back you will have to install the LG Smart World app and search for LG Home 4.0 install it and you will get you app drawer back or you can install a 3rd party launcher from the play store which is what I did I never use the stock launcher all because of limited features. I use Action Launcher which is the best launcher I have found so far. You can go here

If you base on EMUI, then it cannot be mentioned as AOSP-based...

There is no actual Interface Change, it is mostly theming And app replacement.. the title is missleading , untrue and needs to be changed.

I am not able to change it. :|
emui baseed rom.
removing some stock apps, adding some google apps, theming some elements and labeling it as aosp style rom.
this is just ridiculous.
btw have u tested it or can you provide some screenshots !!!!!!
I am using Poco Launcher and installed Pixel icon pack. However after some time, some icons revert back to the default Poco icons while the rest stayed as it is. Why is this so?
I'm having the same issue. Mostly happens with the facebook & messenger app icons.
Same exact problem, Facebook, Messenger and Google Podcasts
It seems it has something to do with the recent release of miui 10 . .
Same thing happens with themes.If you apply a non pre-installed theme.After some time it reverts back to stock
Is there any icon pack confirmed to work fine with poco launcher? i tried borealis and h20 , they all have some icons reverting to default
Got the same issue. Tried it with H20 and Viral and it seems to be happening solely with the Facebook and Messenger icon.
Has anyone found a fix yet?
Got the exact same issue. Anyone else?
It's not just Facebook and messenger, I've noticed Google play store reverted back to original as well.
annoyingly, over time they all revert back to stock.
I'm having the exact same issue with pixelful icon pack, but I've noticed that the gallery icon also changes back to stock sometimes, it also happened with the play store once.
i have same thing with icons and themes , all back to classic , even the poco theme
looks like im not the only one here hahaha have the same problem too
This seems to happen when an app updates from play store. Bug in the launcher.
Poco Launcher was updated recently to version 2.6.3.7.
This bug should be fixed.
Hello,
Recently I have find out that my phone is deleting all of my shortcuts on my home screen after Android updates... So for example every Chrome shortcut link icon on home screen or contact shortcut gets deleted / is missing after Android Update of my phone. Does any of you guys have an idea what could be going on? Thank you in advance.
Phone:
Device: OnePlus 7T Pro
Android: Android 11

Are you using the stock launcher? This happened with the MS launcher for a while.

No, I was asking if you are using the default 1+ launcher, which apparently you are.
I was referring to alternative launchers (home screen) such as Lawnchair, MS, Nova, and others.
looking at the play store reviews ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.oneplus.launcherlooking ) it seems you aren't the only one with issues.
try a different launcher

Thank you for your answer. The link does not work for me... Which launcher do you recommend?
Nova has a huge fan base and is well liked
I haven't used Lawnchair for a while, but it used to be very pixel like
I've been using the MS launcher for several years because I like how it handles the app drawer and home buttons.
Try various ones. If you don't like it just go to settings/default apps, change the Home app back to OnePlus then delete the one you didn't like and try another.
Okay I have recieved an update because phone is not mine, but the owner of the phone already tried changing the launcher to google now launcher. It did not fix an issue. And just to add something to the post the shortcuts are missing after every reboot of the phone and not after updates it was my bad at the first post.
Sorry, of it is happening with the Google launcher and the OnePlus launcher after each reboot try asking in the OnePlus community

Hi there - I have recently purchased the MiPad5pro and have a few questions about the tablet and MiUi in general as this is my first Xiaomi device. I'm running the latest available version for MiUi for the pad5pro in China.
1. Has anyone been able to get Novalauncher to work? I get an error saying only those launchers verified by Xiaomi are allowed. Is that a miui issue or a miui for pad issue? Any other launchers recommended? I use Oneplus for my phone and have it set up with novalauncher that allows me to have the google shelf when swiping to the left from the home screen. I'd love to have that feature on my mipad.
2. is there a way to natively translate text on the screen? For eg: ColorOs has a built in screen translater that allows you to translate any part of the screen or the entire screen. Anything similar available for miui natively?or any apps that you'd recommend that aren't loaded with ads?
3. without root, is there a way to remove miAI and make Google assistant the default assistant app and get it to work in all the apps?for example, the miui clock app has a mic option for assistant but it triggers miai even though I have set Google assistant as my default ai app. Also, every time the tab is restarted, it defaults to miai as the default ai app instead of the previously set Google assistant.
Happy to answer any questions anyone might have if they are looking at buying this tablet.
Yes I am on the same CN stock ROM (do we have any other choice atm?). I am hating MIUI every minute of the day...
1. You can choose Nova as your default launcher. But you have to do so from Nova, not MIUI settings.
2. Sorry I don't know... I gather you're talking about an app that reads a text off a picture? You tried the stock Gallary app (the purple one)? If you didn't find the function in the app, then maybe it's not possible without a 3rd party app?
3. My pad is rooted, but I've tried what you asked... It looks like your choice of the detault assistant app (I tried google) stays after reboot. I set the detault through 'default app' on settings.
I hope we will be out of this misery soon. MIUI (Chinese version) is a torture.

Thanks. I don't hate the MiUi, it serves my purposes, just hoping to get a few of these issues fixed.
Was able to get Nova sorted like you mentioned, but Nova didn't work too well as it doesn't fully move to landscape mode.
#2 is the one I need most, so hopefully if someone else has an app they can recommend. It is not just about a picture, but about text in any app. Hoping for a 3rd party app that can be used that doesn't have a bunch of ads every time you use it.
I removed MiAi using this method along with some other Chinese language apps
It seems safe and you can re install or re enable the apps of you have any problems.

I have the solution to 3.
Without root, it's just a matter of getting the permissions correct.
Xiaomi has a privacy setting in the Google permissions that grants the permissions without confirming with google. That's why you can't get the default assistant to stick.
This will fix it. Give google always allow on device info inside the Google app, not assistant app.
Enjoy.
