Is it possible to remove the Google Search bar from my stock launcher. It just bugs me being there, so have to use a Apex which I don't like using a 3rd party launcher.

The OP mentioned he doesn't want a third party launcher. You can try disabling Google Search. It worked on other versions of Android but I don't know if it will still work. One thing; anything that relies on search will not work.
I want it out of there as well, I've been on android since the begining and I have an exact layout I use. That location is where my clock widget goes and there isn't a chance in hell I will use their stock launcher until it can be moved.
visually disable that "Search bar", while still having the "Ok Google"
I would love to be able to simply visually disable that "Search bar", while still having the "Ok Google" voice function working (don't mind loosing the Google Now swipe too)!
if there is an app or some hack that can be applied to stock tooted ROM, pleas let me know.
Thanks

Might as well start: Have 5 screens but they contain personal info and I'm away from a PC to edit them so here's the first 3.

I had to dump stock for nova launcher, drove me nuts that you couldn't center certain widgets on the stock launcher.

Does the stock launcher allow you to change app icons? I thought I read somewhere that you could..

Yeah, just press and hold the icon and let go. You should see a purple thing on the icon. Press it. Now you can change your icons

Mine is really basic right now as well. I had switched to Nova launcher but when I did, I lost the Knock Knock feature. It'ls pretty damn handy... I hope we see icon packs made for the stock launcher or a way to enable the gestures without needing to use the stock launcher.

I just saw instructions in one of the g2 threads to use the knock feature with nova. I can't find it now. There is another app you need to download and set up the gesture in Nova.

Is it possible to make the notification bar transparent and also the 3 touch buttons, like on stock launcher.

Not yet. There should hopefully be an update to the launchers in the play store soon to allow this.

Yeah, I'm trying to like the stock launcher, but despite how pretty it is, I missed being able to change orientation and having more icons on the screen. I feel like the icons are oversized on stock.

If your N5 is rooted and and you can install a custom rom. CatalystROM does have that option for you to disable that gesture from home. Give it a go.
Theres also an app called "Google Now Swipe Disabler" which can bind to it and do nothing. The gesture still remains though, very annoying in games!

waiting on pie controls personally
So sometimes my stock launcher glitches. Found it happens in cataclysm and stock ROM. What happens is randomly the rows turn to 6 instead of five so its closer together and more icons per page.
It fixes itself upon reboot but is there anyway to fix it otherwise without rebooting?

Do you really like the stock launcher? Nova has many more features and customizations.

I have nova and prime but don't use it. Yes I like the stock launcher more just for the OK Google.

That sounds weird. You could try to reset GEL (stock launcher) by deleting its app data. Settings -> Apps. Search the launcher and delete data and cache
Anyone here able to port Samsung Dialer??
I want the features of swipe dx to call and swipe sx to sms.
I don't want a thirdy party app.
I want the dialer wiith this feature.
Thanks in advance.
This will never happen... Maybe an imitation, but you need TouchWiz framework for this. The S4 Google Play edition can't even do that

youre welcome in advance
Just download the ExDialer from Google Play
