Change the grid size in default launcher?

I'm rooted using Kangabean. I changed the DPI to 400. Widgets look a little strange. How do I change the grid size of the default launcher? I don't want to use a different launcher. I don't want to lose Google Now and the active listening abilities.
Thanks.

You will have to wait for a modified stock launcher or a rom with that feature for that bro, you can`t change the grid in the stock launcher afaik. Look here for a mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps when its available.

Ohh just to let you know, a DPI of 410 works a little better for me. But its totally according to taste.

Been using these w/ Apex for a while now. I'm sure they're good for Nova also. I think they are a buck fifty or something like that..........worth it IMO. Cheers!

There are so many wow! I like a lot of them, but have refrained from using them on KitKat because I like the Google stock 4.4 look so much. I'll eventually get tired of it and start using icon packs. Here are some I really dig:
- flatastico
- portal
- romow round
- click ui
- miui4
- spectre
- flatro
- tendere
- umbra
- fade
- holo
- banx
I found the theme "Glass Pyramid 3D Icon" recently that I really like.

I use Stealth personally.

Yep, Stealth is my fave too. The dev has a website where 10 themes works out really cheap
And he updates them regularly.

Anyone know this wallpaper ?!

Hey Guys,
I had to backup my Nexus 5 and restore it - I didn't realise that it wouldn't keep all the wallpapers etc.
I thought that this wallpaper was a standard wallpaper that came with the Nexus 5...im 90% sure it does...but it's nowhere to be found under the pictures or wallpapers - very weird.
None-the-less, does anyone know where this is from!? It is a panoramic picture so everytime you move across screens more of the pic shows - in my opinion one of the nicest ones out there!
Many thanks,
Jeremy

Hey Mate - it was a widget for 'light flow' because i was having problems with the app and the developer wanted to keep a log of what was happening to identify bugs !

Oh, haha, thanks. It would be awesome to have a widget of incoming/outgoing connections, which I for some reason thought that was.

Transparent Launcher for Non-rooted Phones?

Is there a basic launcher that allows trasparency on non-rooted Nexus 5? I used Holo Beta from the playstore before but it does not seem to work on Kit Kat. 4.4.2
Thanks folks!

I think you need more details than this? If you're non-rooted, does that mean you are on stock ROM as well?
If you're on stock, the base standard out-of-the-box launcher supports transparent navigation bar and status bar? You can't get much more basic than out-of-the-box!
If you don't mean navigation bar and status bar, which transparency are you referring to?
Or do you mean "basic" as in lighter and simpler than the stock launcher?
Action launcher
All of the major launchers have transparent top and bottoms. If not download nova beta, apex, etc. They should be up to date by now. My personal favorite is nova but it is your choice.
Hope this helps, please clarify if this is not what you were asking.
Yeah I kind of posted without checking what I wrote... Duh.... I meant transparent themes.... I was on carbon 4.2.2 on my galaxy s2. I may end up just rooting to get more goodies... I am loving stock right now. Got 4.5hours sot yesterday!

[Q] Launcher tweaks

Moving to the Nexus 5 from a Galaxy Nexus. (It's in the mail)
I'm using Nova Launcher Pro on the Galaxy because I just don't enjoy the low grid size of the GP stock launcher. I'm guessing I'll only be even more frustrated on the bigger screen, but I'd really like to stick to the stock launcher if possible.
So my question, is there anyway to just tweak the stock launcher to to a different grid size without all the other changes that come with the custom launchers?
Thanks.
Yes, Install xposed framework and a module called xposed gel settings.
