Icon packs compatible with Google experience launcher. - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I really like the new nexus 5 and it's launcher but then there are certain icon packs which look really good. Most of them are compatible with 3rd party launchers. Somehow I don't want to migrate so are there icon packs for Gel??

If you are rooted, you can use an Xposed Module called "Unicon"
Otherwise, no. Unless you use Desktop Visualizer, but you will be doing each app 1 by 1

Remove search bar

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

Apex Launcher

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 same here. I miss Nova.

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.

Any way to disable the google now gesture when swiping up from home?

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

Transparent nav bar like moto x/g possible?

Is there a way from changing the background of the nav bar from solid black to a transparent color outside of the home screen / launcher... 50%....20% or even 0% like the moto x and moto g are ?

With the stock launcher the navbar is already transparent, and with Nova beta it's also transparent. It's a native feature of 4.4.
I meant other than the home screen ...

Not unless a ROM supports it.

which one? thanks!!!
On 4.4, I'm not sure as I have not played with any Roms on my N5 yet. When Paranoid Android comes out I'm sure they will support it. They have in all previous versions.
