Google Launcher For Android 4.4 (KitKat) on Note 3

I have just installed Google Launcher of Android 4.4 (KitKat) on Galaxy Note 3. It really works great and I like the Google Now integration.
Only thing is that on 5.7 inch screen, icons look little big...here is the initial impression:

How is the kit kat camera apk? Does it work on the note 3

Sorry but what's the point in this if you kill the pen totally in system? Or all the pen functions work?

All pen functions still work with the 4.4 Google Experience Launcher.

Well if you want everything to look better and you're rooted, install xposed and the app settings module and change the Google search app dpi to 420(that's the one I found to work the nicest with space) and the font scale to 120 and voila

No root needed. You're just downloading two apks. It's very simple. You get the upgraded search and the new Google Experience Launcher which is fun to play with. As indicated above you do lose the nice transparent status bar.

Why not just install Xposed and gravitybox. Then you can change more stuff and turn it on and of without any problems. Plus you can have 5 button navigation bar like I have.

Do you have stock Rom and stock framework and similar. I had stock and it worked.
I don't know if you need deoexed framework or something because I didn't do anything special I just downloaded the xposed framework installer then restarted my phone and it worked. Then I installed gravitybox module and other modules.

Inverted AT&T Deodexed MJ5 TouchWiz Apks

Inverted TouchWiz Apks For AT&T Stock Deodexed MJ5
I thought I'd make these fully inverted stock themed apks (somewhat stock themed anyway) like I did for the T-Mobile variant
for those that would prefer not to use a theme, but would like to use their dark counterparts.​
Warning!
These are just stock deodexed MJ5 apks with no additional mods included.
If your current apks are modded in anyway, those mods will need to be re-added to these apks.
How to
Download zip to your phone
Reboot into custom recovery
Make a backup or at least back up the apks that will be replaced.
Flash zip
Reboot
SecContacts and SecPhone apks
http://sourceforge.net/projects/not...Inverted_Stock_ContactsPhone_MJ5.zip/download
SecMms apk
http://sourceforge.net/projects/note3900t/files/Inverted ATT/Att_Inverted_Stock_Mms_MJ5.zip/download
FlashBarService apk (Multi Window)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/not...verted_Stock_FlashBarService_MJ5.zip/download
I won't have a problem sharing these, but if you would like to include them in your rom or use them as a base for a theme, please ask first.
There were hundreds of xmls edited to achieve this and not to mention digging for the smali files that also needed to be changed. I just ask for some courtesy.
Thanks and enjoy!
Oh and don't forget to smash that thanks button

Just in case.

Guys, here is the genius that helped me theme my ROM, you better click that thanks button for him.

Thanks man. The contacts in this one is a little more updated than the last one I helped you with. It also includes the smali edits needed. Feel free to grab it if you want.
And don't worry about the call recording, I posted these as just stock and will leave any additional mods to those that might want to mod them.
Thanks though.

Alright thanks buddy. I'm going to take this,mod it and put it in my next release. Thank you.

Thanks man! Very much appreciated!
As for the running MJ5 apks on MI9, I wouldn't really know since I don't have the at&t variant and don't know what was changed between those updates. Glad you're not having any issues though and I would recommend to keep backups of the apks that were replaced just in case.

By any chance can you make a hangouts inverted really like to use the hangouts as my main messaging app. If only is possible thanks for giving usa the inverted tw apps like the inverted flashbar

I'm not really into themeing store apps because they need to be redone every time they get updated and I usually don't have time to keep up with them. But, Gunthermic has one done over in the Verizon section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490100.

You must have flashed this on a odexed stock rom. This is for deodexed stock. You're gonna have to delete the odex files in the system/app folder of your phone for each of the apks you installed from here. Then reboot.

Thanks! Just found the answer to my question on your T-Mobile N3 thread. In my years of android tinkering I still haven't figured out what odex means.. lol thanks foreverloco

There's one in the T-Mobile section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2617475. I'm not sure if it'll work without issues on AT&T, so I'd suggest backing up your apk before flashing. If it doesn't work, you can try asking nijel8 if he would be willing to do the AT&T version.

System font size

Hello guys...
I want to know that is there any way to change system font size. I mean something that can change system fonts to smaller or larger as per my wish?
Hit Thanks if helped

Most phones have this ability in the settings.
If you don't, you would need root and a DPI changing app from the market. Changing the DPI can lead to bootloops if you are not careful.
Make sure you have the proper backups and know how to restore your device before playing with DPI settings.

Maybe it doesn't have it on your phone, but all the ones I have had have an option some where in settings to make the font bigger and smaller. It usually ranges from about 80% to 120%.
Take a look through all your settings and see if you have it.

This is a launcher.. so there is still needed the easy setting apk.
I'm going to move a copy of the apk over and see if it works.
Of course they are odex files for cloudyg3-1.3.
Nope still fails on us. in priv-app. installed moved to system app. No go.

Here are the files zipped up. These are from OptimusR G3 from my phone on sprint LS980.
My regular ZVD, Kit kit g2 doesn't have LG Easy Settings.

Hi,
Sorry, i couldn´t make it as installable app. Now it is only deodexed and visible in launchers.
1. Download attachment
2. Put it to internal storage of your device
3. Copy to system/app directory
4. Set right permissions (rw- r-- r--)
5. Reboot your device
Thit is maximum that my knowledge allowes me to do. Sorry i cant help you more guys.

I've tried and tried to deodex the g3 apps, but keep getting errors. I'll try it out in a minute.
Edit. 2:20pm CST USA
It shows in launcher but doesn't run. Reboot and the same. Crashes.
Do you think it might need a library?

Maybe, i dont know. But this one is from G3 ported rom and there are some differences in layout code. Tomorrow ill try make one from stock G2 rom (from V20F).

I am sorry to say it still does not work with our system. I don't get why it wont let tabbed settings. Easy settings may have something to do with the Framework-res.apk and LGE-res.apk
As it requires those. Something in the main necessity files has something in them that the system needs.

You can't imagine how thankfull i am for this!
It works for me on D855 v10h.

@renzo090513 if you use 3rd party launcher then you can directly launch settings only in list view. You always need a next two taps on 3 dots in action bar of the settings if you want to change view to card view.
Easy settings (card view) app is "hidden". Icon of this app doesn't show up in launcher. With this little app you can launch card view of the settings directly from any 3rd party launcher.
