The Cataclysm ROM has a setting to disable it, which is good for me since using the LMT pie control on the bottom of the screen totally doesn't work well with the Google Now gesture.

Hi, I'm new in this forum and also I'm a new android user. I got this phone yesterday and it came with the 4.1.2 update, it is working fine and all, but today something strange happened, my phone freezes up while I was watching a video, it rebooted itself and then, the camera app was gone, and the gallery app also seems to have disappeared, although they both appear on the settings/apps menu. I would like to know what can I do to solve this, please as I don't understand this system well.

Are you using a custom launcher? Most custom launches have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer. Check in the launcher settings for an unhide option.

Go to the app menu where you see the apps. Touch and hold your finger on the app for a second or 2 that you want back on one of your home pages. The home pages should show up and simply drag the app where ever you want it. Move your apps around like this and you can change the apps on the bar on the bottom of the screen the same way.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work out. Unfortunately, I didn't had any other choice but to factory reset my device and now I have the camera back, but thank you for the fast answer!

Who has this problem? Usually when I share from Chrome I get the legendary share via menu and I just dazzle myself sharing left and right now its gone. Instead I get a pop message that says copied to clipboard and I have to go to the app I wanna share it with and paste like I'm an iPhone user or something. Who else has this problem?

It sounds like you replaced the default share setting. Try opening the Chrome app info and 'Clear defaults'.
I tried that. But I just tried to share fro. The xda app to Pocket which I usually do through the share button now it does the same thing!? Weird!!!

This is so weird my share via menu is gone from almost the entire system. I get it when I screen shot from the notification center and in the gallery when I try to share pix or vidz.

Alright I fixed it. You need to go to Apps I. Settings and go to the 3 dot menu on top right and reset apps preferences like so. Yay!

Hello all, I'm new here - but have been reading these forums for a while. I have a Google Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.2. I would like to disable the launcher (Stock KitKat launcher) so that I can have only the Nova Launcher Premium. When I was running Android 4.4 this was easily done - I simply went to Settings-Apps-Launcher-Disable. This option is now grey and I am unable to select it. Any advise would be very welcome. Thank you.

Hit the home key, select Nova Launcher used always and restart the phone?
Thank you for your reply. I have selected Nova as my default home already but whenever I revert back to the stock launcher its full of app shortcuts and mess from installs and uninstalls which is annoying. I find every time I uninstall something I have to go back to stock to clean it up. That's why I liked the option to disable the launcher as I didn't have to bother with it.

I want to have more room on the screen and want to clear all the apps at the bottom (cellphone SMS and web)
Is there a ROM ?

You're referring to the 'dock'. Just try a launcher. Action Launcher is my favorite.

Nova launcher allows this
Some roms has "immersive" mode where it removes the top and bottom and gives you more screen real estate
Also use Nova free to do this...
I use NOVA and have the dock set to hide with a swipe up. I keep the dock hidden until I need it.

You can also do it with stock launcher and Xposed + GravityBox. I did it for a while but I didn't like the fact that back or home becomes a two step process rather than one.
Is there a ways or app that can be used to change what a soft key does.
For example to open "Utter" instead of google search when clicking on search.
I installed "Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons" for Xposed and like it but I want to change the action and clicking on search......
In other works, remapping softkeys
Thanks
There is no search button on standard softkeys anyway. Just home recent and back button. I think you may mean the nav ring but either way settings for then can be changed in most custom ROMs now a days

Like I said in my opening post I installed "Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons" for Xposed and added the search softkey in the navbar. I don't use the navring and still using stock rom.
On the AICP rom you can change them to whatever you want and also do a long press and a double press as well. It's great.
Nexus 5 powered by AICP/ElementalX/Nova Prime
Gravity box xposed has options to customise the navbar keys
