[Q] Nova Launcher (Double click home) - General Questions and Answers

I really like the nova launcher but i seeming to find one thing that drives me crazy. When i press the home key twice, it opens up all the homescreens to edit. Is there a way to disable or stop it from doing this?

How to change some buttons on homescreen?

Hi guys!
I've got a question about making the homescreen your own.
I'm talking about the call and browser button next to the menu button.
Is there a way to change these two into other buttons?
Cause I use the opera mini browser instead of the usual browser.
Thnx!

You should get a pop-up message when pressing the browser button on the Gingerbread homescreen asking which browser to use (if you have more than one installed).

Click to collapse
Dude, that wasnt the question
OT: I don't think it's possible, I havent found a way
You can change your homescreen icons, but you need a home screen replacement app.
Something like Go Launcher or ADW Launcher. Both are amazing home screen replacements that let you modify and change your home screen to your liking.
Either of those apps will allow you to change the bottom buttons.
Actually, if i'm not mistaken, even with the stock home screen, you should be able to long press the icons in the bottom bar and drag them off the menu bar. You can replace them with whatever app you want by doing the same - long press and drag into the space for the menu.

[Q] Any mods to make the home button open the app drawer?

Is there any way to make it so when you're on the homescreen (and only the home screen) that when you push the home capacitive button the app drawer opens? The home button would work exactly the same everywhere else but the homescreen, which is where it would open the app drawer.
Coming from a Galaxy Nexus I constantly find myself hitting the home button accidentally.
Could someone help me out? Thank you in advanced.
The only way I know of is to change your launcher, pretty much all of the launchers have that option. Nova, Apex and so on, of course, you lose the Sense widgets.

That's the problem, I actually enjoy Sense. I don't want to lose it.

[Q] Lock app Home Screen

I have a stock ASUS TF300T, with the 4.2.XXX software update from ASUS is there a way to lock the home screen or an app or something simple to keep from bumping the apps and widgets around?
Yeah, but not with the stock launcher just open google play and search apex launcher or nova launcher and install 1 of them
Press the home button you should see a dialog pop up choose apex/nova and click always
On apex just press the "apex menu button" or just your devices menu button and press " lock desktop"
For nova not really know that but it should be in the menu as well

Nova Launcher Frequently Used Apps Menu

I'm using Nova Launcher 5.5.1. On the bottom-half right edge of the screen is a line, if you touch it this menu appears. I don't know what this menu is called in Nova Settings. Does anyone know how to completely turn this off? I keep accidentally pressing it.
Its from Sesame Shortcuts. Go in to settings and turn off screen edge.
Thanks!

Question Just got a J716F, how can I change launcher?

Just trying to make my new tablet with China ROM feel like home, and want to use my normal launcher "Action Launcher" couldn't figure out how to override the gesture, so turned on the navigation buttons, but the home button does do anything. Anyone know how I can fix the home button, or override the home gesture?
Also the quick tiles, I notice that it doesn't use standard android quick tiles, so the apps that usually have quick tiles don't show up. Can I add more tiles?
Tablet did OTA update to 13.0.364, and I do have L1 windvine. Anything else I should do?
Nova Launcher works great for me. You can then set it to the default launcher. I keep the Lenovo gestures and have added a home button to the home screen.
