Screenshots, find in Atachments.
Apps port:

and Google Search (Velvet)
Enjoy

Thanks
Just one question -
Does it support folder inside the app drawer ?

Its almost the same like previous one.

It's android L. It just looks the same for now because we don't have the material UI...

When do we get material?

The only difference is the sound it makes when you activate voice search and the margin width and height between the home screen and the search bar (it's less). The only thing I was waiting for was the new app drawer icon- but I guess that's only with Material, so it's pretty much L exclusive at this point.

I had the same problem .... I first made sure my language was English (US) and then I did a few reboots... It finally worked... I had to say OK google in a weird accent (lol) .... Basically the hotword detection was so bad that I continued using my old launcher (The Z2 home port) as wanted google now launcher only for hotword detection(which did not work properly)

Google Android 4.4 apk's

http://goo.gl/Rwk5FO
http://goo.gl/Zfz7mb
(note: velvet.apk is google search, latinimegoogle.apk is keyboard)
These are all taken from the following two URLs:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/3...om-the-nexus-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...4-4-with-gmail-style-ui-and-a-slide-out-menu/
All of them work for me on CM10.2 11/1 nightly except
-- to get exchange email working disable the old *exchange* under apps before seeing up the new email app.
-- Photosphere also crashes if you try to use it, and my camera FC'd after taking a picture. The new Gallery works great though.
-- Deskclock will not install
-- Voice search (using Google Now) will crash before it brings up a response unless you >> Hold down on homescreen, select settings, select Voice, change the voice (to English - UK for example). (update - better fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46994076#post46994076)
To get Google Home working
To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. (Cheers to Phandroid for figuring that out.)

Update: Got it working now with the OP fix link.
One question though is I thought you would be able to say, "OK Google" from home screen and it will start to do a search. Do I need the 4.4 home screen for this to work?

Yeah, I've been using Open Mic +. It's pretty good and no need to use a different launcher. You can also customize it instead of saying "Ok Google." I just changed my activation word to "Google" and it automatically opens up Google Search and listens to what you want to say. Pretty convenient. You can turn it off and on. Just google it. I believe it's also in the play store.

Very minimal if any drain. I'm actually using the 2.4 version. 3.5 is the latest, and I'm not sure how good that one is, but I've had no issues with mine. Also, people complaining about slow start up time isn't true. The 3-5 seconds it takes is only when you first start the app. After that, every time you say your hotword, it opens up quite fast and ready to listen. That's for 2.4 at least. I'm sure 3.5 has to be better.

[Guide]LG launcher hidden settings

There is a pretty simple way to go in these launcher settings.
1. Download and install Launcher Pro from Google Play (you don't need to set it as default launcher or anything)
2. Add Activities widget to your LG Launcher home screen. Search for Home - com.lge.launcher2.hiddenmenu.LGHomeHiddenMenuActiv ity
3. Voilà now you have access to hidden settings from your Home screen. If you change your settings they will keep even after restarting your phone.

Those just look like a non polished interface for your custom launcher. My guess is that they aren't LG launcher specific, they are Launcher PRO specific...
In which case you're telling us that a custom launcher has more features than the integrated one, which isn't really news to anyone on XDA mate.

It doesn't get rid of the ring but you can set to launch nothing.
