[APP][2.3+] Sword Art Online Launcher - Android Apps and Games

Sword Art Online launcher - an anime inspired menu system.
SAO Launcher is a menu that can be opened anywhere by swiping down from the top left corner. Get access to sms, contacts, apps, and more regardless of which app you're currently in. Ads can be disabled with a $4.99 In App Purchase inside Options, which also unlocks some additional features. v2.3.1 is for Android 2.3, which is no longer supported. v2.6.1 is for 4.0+.
The Sms Extension module lets you reply to sms inside the app and (optionally) receive popups when you get an sms. Just install it and SAO Launcher will do its thing.
The KitKat Theme changes the entire look and feel of the app, including the images and sounds. More themes and extensions can be found inside the Store in SAO Launcher.
You can watch a video of it in use here.

What to say, what to say... It's a menu that can be opened anywhere by swiping down from the top right/left corners. Get access to sms, contacts, apps, and more without going back to the home launcher. The 4.1 restriction is mostly because of the animations used. Ads can be disabled with a $1.99 In App Purchase inside Options.

Haha, thanks. Do you mind taking a picture of your issue? I don't get it on the (admittedly few) devices I've tested it with. I have an idea of what's going on, though.

I... wasn't expecting that, haha. Um... Hmm. I could hard code the width?
Mind testing this apk?

This looks awesome
There are some bugs though
In the market version of the launcher, only half of the icons show but in the other apk you uploaded for testing, on the bottom where the ads are supposed to be there is an error "You must have INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permissions in AndroidManifest.xml".

Well with that version works
But i have a loot of fc

It shouldn't fc
Can you reproduce it? ie: If I open this orb, it always crashes? Or it always crashes after 3sec?
If you run CyanogenMod (or a derivative) or if you have access to adb, I could immediately fix it with a stacktrace. CyanogenMod has an option in Developer Options to add "Power menu bug reports" and adb... I forget how to do it with adb, but it's 1 line command to save it to a txt file.
Uploaded a new apk - Internet permission error should be fixed and the app should stop appearing in Recent Apps (so you dont accidentally Force Stop it).

The fading isn't correct in landscape view for Settings and Apps when on top or bottom of the list
Also does the Log out button have any purpose (Because it does nothing for me)? As far as I can remember in SAO the Log Out button disappears (In the first 15 episodes when they are stuck inside SAO). The Log Out button could close the SAO launcher (Not killing the launcher itself).

Well, the fading is right in that you can scroll up/down towards the fade. It's a bit annoying with just one entry visible, though. I'll likely make the list expand to fit the entire screen, but it involves rewriting the arrows (which expect to be centered).
Update's been pushed that fixes the half-circles, fixes a crash in Options, removes the app from Recent Apps, and pre-caches some files so that it's not slow on launch (especially if you have a lot of apps and/or contacts).

I'm sorry. I wish it were possible too. I think the lines of code unavailable in 4.0.4 are "withStartAction" and "withEndAction" for animations. Basically, I can't tell the app to do something before or after an animation ends (like make the orbs visible before they start falling into place or close the app after they zoom off).
I might try back porting some of it, but it's painful having to write code twice to provide support for older devices (even though 4.0.4 isn't that old!)

thanks by the way

THIS IS REALLY REALLY REALLY AWESOME DUDE!! Please don't stop to develop this launcher :highfive:

Have been playing around with this for a bit and so far it's working superbly. Thanks, dev. ???
Only thing stopping me from fully switching from Glovebox to this is I'd like to be able to customize the icons in the applications list/not have them. I'll just have to have both on my phone then!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337

dev, you should have built this app half a year ago. Now that I don't have an android phone anymore... Though, it looks awesome. Great job.

Is there a way for the menu button to show most recent apps or all the apps?

Really cool app. Any plans on adding widget support?
Also, a direct shortcut to settings would be nice under the options tab. Persistent notification options would be good too. Great work!

This looks good. More feedback once tested for a longer time. Hows the battery usage
EDIT:
The app responds well. No additional battery drain. Only since times the hotspot does not respond. Quick restart of the app helps, I am sure next versions will be stable too. Good job Dev.

Same on nexus 4..created a custom panel for those apps which don't fit in any of the collections
---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------
Can you please increase the number of recents shown in recents panel. The default Android recents has so many apps and whereas quickr shows only a handful.
Sort of the app which I might have tried to do as a plunge into Android dev-ship
Right now I have Homeflip (BTW, also can be a bit slow but is lean and mean, I mean tiny. LIke that!!) set as only showing recent apps. Homeflip, as well as most all the launchers out there, have forgotten all about shortcuts. Homeflip is a launcher overlay, becomes the default launcher with a chosen fallback. Makes trying out launchers very easy and convenient.
I have the Xposed swipe-back app to close running apps. Very useful.
I tried an app, do not remember which one, to swipe through recent app screens (instead of snapshots or icons). Useful but not well implimented, more problems than it was worth.
I see Quickr as a stand-in for Ubuntu-like functionality because it has four possible edges. However, really need partial edges so as not to interfere with normal phone function! Then possible up to 8-12 alternatives though I would not use them all.
One edge for recent apps. I prefer a column of icons or small snapshots (take a lot more RAM).
One edge for contacts, showing pictures, info, and/or/another edge for media? Replacing Homeflip and others.
Is this app an launcher-overlay or "separate" app like most others of this type?
Functionality in which I am interested, will work?

This is not only a launcher-overlay app, but also any-app overlay. You can swipe in from edge when you are actively in any app.
This is quite brilliant, my new favorite app for multitasking. The only bugs that I've noticed are:
1) sometimes apps and shortcuts disappear from my custom panels. I've had my Hibernate Now (greenify) shortcut disappear from one panel, and also the Snapchat app disappeared from another panel. I'm not sure what would cause something like this, and it isn't something I can reproduce for a log. Temporary solution is just add the missing app/shortcut back to the panel it disappeared from. Doesn't happen very often either, just every once in a while I'll notice there are less apps and realize one is missing.
2) For some reason, Google+ doesn't show up in my list of applications. I've checked the bottom of the app list, as there are 5 or so miscellaneous apps that show up there out of alphabetic order, and it's not there either. I would really like to add Google+ to my social panel, it's one of the apps I use most.
3) Not really a bug, and no offense intended, but those folders are pretty ugly. Something like Nova's folders with just a dark circle or square would look much better.
Other than those couple of things, Quickr has been super convenient. The couple of hiccups I've had are not deal-breakers, I will continue using it. Awesome job, can't wait for more updates!!

[CONCEPT] Scrolling Side Launcher - another multitasking concept for Android

Hello xda-community,
I NEVER RECOGNISED THIS, BUT OF COURSE THE TITLE SHOULD BE "SCROLLING SIDE LAUNCHER", NOT "SCOLLING".
first, I wasn't sure where to post this, so I chose the general section. If a mod thinks there is a better place for this, please move the topic =)
Now, what do I imagine under "Scrolling Side Launcher"?
There are many approaches to achieve multitask on mobile devices, most famous ones are Samsungs Multiwindow/Pen Window, LGs Qslite/SlideAside/Splitview, Paranoid Androids Halo and last but not least the stunning xposed module by Android developer @zst123, XHalofloatingwindows.
However, none of these seems to be very useful when you are on a smartphone, on a tablet with a wide screen they can be useful.
On smartphones, its always a switch between this window and that window, moving another window to the front, maximising, minimising, closing, reopening and so on.
So, I thought about a way how to avoid most of these complications and perhaps even make multitask feeling a little bit more smooth and natural.
But, how could you achieve a fluent experience when you have several apps on screen? I thought about the Android notification bar, where you can pinch notifications to enlarge them or to minimise them. And this was how I had the idea for this concept:
I used Samsung Touchwiz (most of you hate it, I know) as a base:
1. A new icon on the homescreen (replacing the MyMagazine icon and app, because who in the world really needs that one?), so from the homescreen you just need to swipe to the right to enter SSL:
2. A new icon in the recent apps menu (this would either need a new apk, an xposed module (?) or the whole thing be part of an own rom with this one, you can get into SSL from every app:
3. Swipe an app from the recent menu to the left to add it to SSL:
4. Next image shows SSL without any app added, you can add any app by tapping the "+" symbol:
5. If you add an app, it's displayed in fullscreen, but you can pinch (tap with the fingers on the borders) it to minimise it to any size until it switches to minimised view...:
6. ...and of course the other way round:
7. If you have more apps pinched out, you can scroll thru the apps. The "active" app (the one you interacted with last) is highlighted with white borders:
8. When you scroll up, the titlebar hides itself, when you scroll down, it appears again:
9. In the menu, you can choose between different options; in the settings you can set different layout options.
10. Swipe again to the right to open the sidebar, in which you can see all apps added to SSL. Active apps have a thumbnail of the current content. In the Sidebar you can change the apps order or close an app (swipe away)
or even more like in slim recents:
Edit: important to mention is that of course the app size would scale down, otherwise it would look as awkward as in my pics (just made them with paint.net) and interaction would be bad.
That's it for the moment, I'll maybe add/change some aspects. So, what do you think?
Just edited two of the concept to be a bit more like material design. How do you like?
The concept is nice, looking forward to try it

Subscribed anyway cause it's a really nice idea!
Also, it looks a bit like slim recents, but you can actually interact with the apps (like xhalo), rather than just see a thumbnail of it.

Yep, I took this sidebar concept from slim recents
And I like that you can minimse the thumbnails in slim recents. That's useful
Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
The sidebar looks like Fancy Switcher:
By the way, you asked for a theme like this one (latest touchwizz) back in the early development of Fancy Switcher, right :laugh:?
Yes, I am a fan of touchwiz.
The sidebar is a concept you find in many apps (slim recents, fancy switcher, switchr)
It's a popular feature since its easy to handle.
First, I thought to design it like you can do all this directly in the launcher (swipe apps away, change positioning) but there would be two major problems with that: First, it would interfere with the normal gestures of the app, and second there would be a problem of space when you want to switch app position because you cannot see so much apps on the screen at the same time like in a sidebar. This would be against the concept of simple handling I want to achieve.

I love this idea
I was considering yesterday of making an Xposed mod to put app icons in the recents panel, then having a drawer to access all apps
Your idea is much better but also much harder to make
I think I'll make my one then add features from your one over time
Just to clarify, in your concept, does recents panel become the home screen?

[APP] [4.0+] [PRO] [UPDATE: 4/24/15] Widget Pager - Lock Screen widgets

Hello XDA!
I made a very nice app that allows anyone to have lock screen widgets. You can configure up to 4 widgets. I will be creating a pro version in the near future with MANY more features!
You can download the app on Google Play!
Now anyone can have a page of widgets on their lock screen!
Widget Pager
WIDGET PAGER PRO IS NOW ACTIVE!!!!
Get It On Google Play
This widget doesn't work for my phone. After I install this app, I set the widget I want to be displayed on my lock screen, but nothing happened.
I'm using Allview V1 Viper S (Walton Primo S2 rebranded for Romania), with rooted stock ROM.
PS: Excuse me for my very bad english.
Android versions
Nice job but please mention Android versions it will work with.
Good luck !!!

Did you enable the app by ticking the check box where you configured your Widgets? If so, look in the bottom left hand corner on your lock screen for the button to show your Widgets.

Can you try the updated version and report back? Thanks a bunch!
I very like your widget! It runs good on my i9300 with Android 4.4.4
However I discoverd a bug: the time-out period for the lockscreen is now the same as the time-out period in display settings. Without your widget the time-out in lockscreen is the default 5 seconds.
Could you please fix this?

I'm not a big fan of graphic design
The code itself takes some time to build so the start icon was thrown together quickly Maybe in the future I'll make it nicer.
About resizing widgets, I am making a paid pro version that will allow resizable widgets, zoomable widgets, unlimited pages of widgets, paced-anywhere-widgets, and some other things I cannot recall. I do this in my free time and need to start profiting off my work. Which is why you see ads in the free version (Even though that doesn't generate a lot of money.

@elesbb not sure why I decided to give this application a try now as I had it bookmarked for some time, but omg, I've been missing out! anyways, a couple of suggestions on this software. possibility to either move the icon for activation or have it automatically move above the keyboard when trying to the enter password for a locked device. right now when my device requires a password to unlock, the icon for activation kind of gets in the way of the key to the lower left of the screen. would be nice if the activation icon would move itself above the top row of the keyboard when opened or allow one to configure its placement. another suggestion is some way to remove the widgets from the application as there doesn't seem to be a way to remove them once added. not that big of a deal as I figured out four widgets to add, but prior to this I was at a loss to clear ones that I had added.

Hey, just wondering if you could help me get your xposed modules working?
G900V (Verizon)
NK2 stock (rooted)
Galaxy S5 Widgets Module
Samsung Multiple Widgets Module
I've been trying to get the widgets to work while using pattern lock. While set to swipe, I can add, remove, edit, etc the widgets. Set to pattern I press the +, it has me unlock device and then I can choose which widget I want to add. It only adds widgets to the lock screen while set to swipe. Any one else encounter this or know how to fix this would be greatly appreciated!
@elesbb not sure if this default behavior, but it looks like when I activate Widget Pager and leave it open the screen never goes back to sleep...

What good would having your widgets open for you to see them if the screen would just shut off when it feels like it? Its default behaviour. Either shut it off manually or close the widgets. If I didn't add that, people would complain that they couldn't read/interact quickly enough with their widget because the screen kept shutting off.

Samsung's New Notification/Lockscreen App

Hey all.. I don't think I've seen a post about this so I thought I'd be the first to give you all a heads-up on Samsung's new lock app called Good Lock. It's a fairly new app and I'm sure they'll make improvements. It pretty much changes your lockscreen, notifications tray, and recent tabs. Let me know what you think of the app.
**Apparently some rooted users are having various problems (constant reboot and randomly uninstalls itself), so keep that in mind...
You can download this in the Galaxy App store
Here are some screenshots

Saw this earlier today, haven't downloaded yet. Are your icons a previous theme or are they from this new Good Lock app?

The white outlined icons are from the theme store

I downloaded this today, and so far I like it! I wasn't sure at first, but the more that I use it, the more I enjoy it.
I like the new notifications menu. Looks a lot like stock Android. Wish u could use a custom lockscreen wallpaper, but besides that, it's pretty cool! I'm surprised that Samsung created something like this.
To answer your question, I'm pretty sure that those icons are from a previous theme. I haven't found any icon customization with this app
I tried the app, but it uninstalled itself after a bit playing around with it. It looked better than the stock lock screen and notification area (although I don't like the colours) and I'd like to keep the app. Is there a way to prevent that the app is automatically uninstalled?
In Nova Launcher pulling notification bar down is not flawless if you use gesture...
Just a warning that it doesn't work with rooted devices. I made the mistake of installing it on my rooted S7 and it caused constant reboots.
I've also uninstalled in for ithe time being because it didn't work with my Samsung led case. it kept asking for location. I've never had the uninstall problem or reboot problem. you can change the lockscreen by going to Samsung settings. I really hope they polish the app a bit more.

So far, I'm liking Good Lock. just a couple weird things. Looks like you no longer can customize the quicksettings tiles, and the recent apps switcher is much better, but if you use the button to bring it up and dismiss it (also using the button) then it goes to the Home App instead of the app I was in.

Are you rooted? If not, that explains why the reboot issue would never have happen for you.
Downloading now.
I tried it and uninstalled within minutes. The recent apps is horrible - separate chrome tabs are now nameless icons making it useless to find the tab you wanted, and I like having a preview of the open apps. Also, as mentioned, the MM notification draw pulldown bug in Nova is present, which drives me insane. And no lockscreen wallpaper choices, no thanks. The only reason I'd want to use it is the more stock android look, and that you can finally double tap a notification on the lockscreen to open it, which should be a thing on the current lockscreen anyway.

You select your wallpaper just as before from your phone settings/display and wallpaper.
So far I think I'll keep the Good Lock

I've also uninstalled it for the time being. I think they'll release a more stable version and probably get rid of the recent apps lol.

On your phone, go to your apps / Samsung folder / Galaxy Apps then download from there.

Hi there Sir Eagle. Could you upload the apk to dropbox or any? Seems like I can't download it through the GStore. Must be a country thingy.

[BACKPORT][6.0.1+] Pixel Launcher P-4275643 from Google Pixel 2

Pixel Launcher P-4275643 Backport for Android 6.0.1+​​
​
So... Here we are again, the title says it all.
This is a quick (I spent 3 hours on it) backport of the Pixel Launcher P-4275643, extracted from the Pixel 2 images. I'ved tested it on my SHIELD Tablet, and as it wasn't working, I modded it so that it'd work just fine on any Android 6.0.1+ devices.
I have implemented the Google's signature verification patch, as according to this thread so that the application doesn't Force Close on launch, as well as all the goodies from the Pixel Launcher OMR1-4113793 v4 backport.
I've tested the application in my SHIELD Tablet running official LineageOS 13.0 nightlies, as well as in my Wileyfox Swift 2 with Android 7.1.2, and seems to be working like a charm when there's no substratum overlays enabled with latest Google Play Services installed.
However, like last time I'd like to roll call all of you to please, test it and report back with any issue you find.
DOWNLOAD LINK
SMALI MODIFICATIONS
NOTE:
- DO NOT MIRROR MY FILES, please.
- The background color of the App Drawer won't look blue in Samsung devices, like last times, as I fixed it to look white.
- The apk, like last time, has been signed with my own key, so uninstall any previous versions before installing this one
- Bloggers! YouTubers! If you post links to this backport PLEASE, be sure NOT to make mirrors of it, and, it'd be awesome if you mentioned the original author in your blog posts.
- ¡Bloggeros! ¡YouTubers! Si posteais enlaces de éste backport, POR FAVOR, NO lo resubais, y, estaría genial si mencionárais quién es el autor del mismo.
- Do you want to get Android O emojis? Check this out.
- No, still no reflection.engine crashes :laugh:

Special thanks to P4Block for having to hear me screaming when the code doesn't work, and Jose (in case you read this, <3)
First of all, thanks for the port!! Finally it works for Android 6 ??
I tried in my Blackview R6 (Mediatek chip), and it works good, but sometimes, the launcher crashes doing actions like making a folder in the main screen.
But I'm sure next updates will solve this problem (or maybe it's just me ??).... Thanks so much!

Thanks for your kind comment.
I know why this happens (notice that it only crashes when the pop-up menu that handles the DeepLinks hasn't fully opened yet), and I'm already working on bringing a fix to it.
Please, be patient!
Thank you very much, was waiting for someone to fix the blue folder background on Samsung devices.
Only thing that doesn't work is the weather at the top (and yes, I enabled location permissions).

I supposed it was my device's fault since I don't have the Google app installed. But, it's probably related to this:

Im having the same exact issue on my LG G Stylo. The clock widget looks like yours missing the time and date. I have stock 6.0 for android and funny enough the version made for 7.0+ works fine but also has the same issue with the click widget. I also notice in both that one the app tray is flicked open, smoothness goes out the door.. pretty choppy. I read in the other forum people with the Galaxy S8 were getting some choppy animations with the app tray open.
Found a bug: in my home screen, if I click an app icon and move it immediately (before the vibration, indicating that I'm moving that app), I return to my previously used launcher and that designation of my default launcher gets reset. Also no Google Now
Otherwise, it's working well.
I'm using Redmi Note 4 MTK, Android 6. Thanks for developing such a lightweight launcher
It lookzs good with navigation bar but the opposite without navbar (looks ugly to me).
Btw, still i appreciate ur work dude, keep it up.
