Is there a launcher recommended for the A3? I really just don't like the app draw and the inability to put things in folders.
I've also got root & a few magisk mods going. Anything you recommend?

If you want the recents menu in android pie to work correctly with third party launchers you need QuickSwitch magisk module only certain launchers are compatible with it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-quickswitch-universal-quickstep-t3884797
If you like miui or emui, I suggest to use cool miui launcher or cool emui launcher. Both are similar.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mi.launcher.cool
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emui.launcher.cool
Its good to use having theme, wallpaper store and have option to take backup also. Try once. I got a cool emui mod without ad version. If you need that, just let me know. I can share.
I use Nova Launcher
Lawnchair v2 from APK Mirror along with the Quickswitch module. You get the recents and overview suggestions from Quickstep as well as the many customization options.

To the hardworking developers, with due respect, i have been using PAC ROM since long time on my LG OG, one thing i am missing from the very first day is the customize able rows and columns both in the Home Screen and App Drawer, and Re size able icons, specially in 4.4 build the icons are so big and have an order of 5 columns, so they don't look good, if the respected developers could please consider my demand. thanks to all in advance!
Use Nova launcher
I really recommend using Apex Launcher (would give link, but new member here), as it supports icon and font themes, easy to pick up and customize!

If you want to keep stock launcher (Google Now Launcher), Bexton has made an awesome Xposed Module that adds the features you want.

I use Apex since a few years, too. For me it's the best launcher. The customizability is great. Besides there are a lot of themes at play store.
Apex is the answer, have not needed anything else after first try
Hi XDA,
Im using Nexus 6 5.1.1 rooted with xposed, i have unicon installed which is great. But i remember long time ago i had the option to choose icon for each and every app which now is gone from the app for some reason.
I'm looking for a way to change the icon such as unicon does, change the icon from the system itselft. Im using Google now launcher and i dont want to switch it to Nova or any other launchers out there.
Tried Xposed GEL settings but i cant to get any icon change with it.
Do you know any other programs i can try?
Try Nova.

Too much trouble to read the OP?
@torecdude I don't believe you have options though. Unicon hasn't been updated in almost 2 years and doesn't have support for the newest Xposed Frameworks. The Pro version of the Xposed GEL settings supports icon packs, but not individually and not system wide, just for the launcher itself. Besides a 3rd party launcher, you're stuck with all or nothing solutions per individual basis. I don't understand the reluntance to a 3rd party launcher like Nova or Apex though. What does the stock launcher offer that they do not?

I Did notice Unicon Beta is expanding so maybe finally it will get updated. Anyways, ill might try Nova sometimes, im just very pleased with Now launcher because im a stock freak with my nexus 6. But if there's no other way to change icons per app perhaps ill try Nova some day.

Ugly fix to working in nougat. It may crashes a lot in the first. But seems it can work in the last. Try at your own risk.
//updated in 2017-1-5
Now it supports customize dock and desktop column size
//updated in 2017-1-5
App renaming is now supported
//update in 2017-1-3
Per app icon set is supported
//updated in 2016-12-29
It's been renamed to Pixel Settings cause it supports icon pack now. There might be problems here and there so just try it out. I'm gonna keep working.
If there is any problem email me [email protected] or post reply.
Donation is appreciated. Thanks.

Which version of pixel launcher you are using, I am using android 6.0 and pixel launcher 7.1.1-3359438. The dock is always there...
By shortcuts, he wanted to say the new 7.1 shortcuts on long press. Use Nova launcher, it has the ability to set the transparency and shortcuts works

Working with Pixel launcher. Please add this to Google Now launcher. The Pixel launcher annoying is the lack of choice of main screen. Better Google Now.

long pressing on apps, provide us new quick actions that just works on Google pixel's phone, some custom launchers such as action launcher 3 and nova launcher, already provided this feature but I want this on native pixel launcher, hope you can do that ?.

Hi guys I was just wondering if substratum works with our v10?
Using it now

I mean I don't want to sound like a noob but what's the setup that you have. I've tried theming and only certain icons get themed on the stock launcher. I'm going to ask the obvious but do you use another launcher to fully get substratum working properly?
Substratum mostly works fine with the v10. I'm not sure if it works better than Layers though. All the themes I've tried cant theme Settings though. I dont use the stock launcher, I prefer Action Launcher Pro 3 and Smart Launcher Pro, with OmniSwitch for recents, tasks switching, etc.
Hi folks,
Bored of stock Xperia launcher?
Here's the best alternative, Lawnchair.
Google play version is outdated but you'll find latest update here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/delet...627-ci-q-merge-android-apk-download/download/
You will need Lawnfeed to enable Google left panel: https://lawnchair.app/lawnfeed/?ref=lawnchair
Enjoy
I like the way that Lawnchair Launcher looks overall, but I do not like that I can not hide the dock. I prefer having a full screen look where possible.
I like it but I don't like the clock, I wish you could get rid of that and use your own..

What???
No clock nor dock...
You should try the settings ?
Show me where...
in the settings. I did not see anything for hiding either dock or clock. I must have missed something or it simply did not jump out and bite me to make it obvious as to what was needed to be done.
Edited to correct misspelling.

Dock, first option.
Delete the clock like any widget, long press it and move on delete option.

I went into the Dock settings and I saw nothing that said "Hide Dock".
I have Nova Launcher now and I can Peek a Boo the dock with a swipe gesture so that it is not always present and disappears when not needed.
That is what I am looking for here. Am I missing something here?
Hey great, thanks for pointing that out...have a look at what I've done...if Lawnchair 2 did a clock like that I would be happy...or if you could mod the clock, colour it, resize it, change the padding around it, and the icons for the weather....so I could make it look like that..
Either way, it looks a million times better than the Xperia launcher so thanks for the advice...
Happy to be able to create folders in the app drawer.
Anybody knows how to get rid of the white line below the dock?

Via adb, you could try:
wm overscan 0,0,0,-30
And to revert:
wm overscan 0,0,0,0
Bear in mind that this simply moves the nav bar below the bezel, some full screen apps react differently to this. Good luck.
I also like the Lawnchair Launcher a lot, but it cannot work with gestures navigation without quickswitch magisk moudle， which is pity like all other launchers

I'm sorry that I forgot this is Xperia 1 ll thread, So glad to see that Xperia 1 II can finally use third-party launchers with navigation gestures. I still can't do that with Xperia 1 55.1.A.8.1 firmware.:crying:
