[Q] Where's the ask any question thread ? ;) regardless here are mine.. - AT&T LG G3

So I just fired up my G3 yesterday & notice some of my apps are not showing in the launcher..
Gmail & Hangouts for example..
I have the all apps list sorted Alphabetically & none hidden when I check show/hide apps..
If I search for Gmail or Hangouts they're there.. but are not showing in the launcher all apps..
I am not using a custom launcher..
WTF is going on ?

They're in the folder labeled Google in the app drawer.

Did you open the "Google" folder in the app drawer? Although it doesn't make much sense it appears first in the app drawer when it's sorted alphabetically.

App that changes App names?

is there an app that changes app names? I found "App name editor" but that only changes app names on your "home screen" or "desktop(s)" as i call it. I'd like to change the name in the app screen. for instance "hide my sms" doesnt do me much good if the name implies exactly what its doing. any such app?
I don't know of any app like that, but I would imagine you're going to have to use a 3rd party launcher to be able to edit app names in the app drawer. You may want to check out LauncherPro - it looks very similar to the stock launcher, but lets you customize all sorts of things. One feature is the ability to hide certain apps from showing up in your app drawer at all. Would this solve your problem, and you could still put a link to the app on your homescreen (with a changed name or even without the name, just the icon).

ADW Launcher EX has a edit option which can rename app name & change icon.
Maybe try that.

in the app drawer, or just on the homescreen? I know LauncherPro can do both on the homescreen, don't know about the app drawer.

Lost in Market for a damn calendar and tasks widget...

I needed to fully reinstall my Note2. But couldnt able to get the backup because my phone was in bootloop...
Anyways, after I reinstall everything, there was this widget missing, it was a calendar and tasks widget. Cant find it, i have checked the installed and purchased applications of my all but not in there.. it should be out of market in the period after I installed it..
A few reminders of it screens:
@ first of all it is a widget.
@ Sync with google tasks and other calendars.
@ You can add tasks and tasks add themself to google tasks in your account.
@ You can also select to add event to your calendar list.
@
@ Scrollable agenda style widget which is transparent
There is a line on top,on top of the line there are 3-4 buttons, refresh, settings etc. Under the line starts the tasks and calendar. You can select to show the tasks seperate from date event and show them on top of the list.
@ When you tap on the settings button on the widget, you can change the transparency level and color of the widget. You can also put a transparent light or dark background of the widget.
@ I became really obsessed about this and looking for this for 3 days... where the f.is this...! Please help !!!
@ No it is NOT
Astrid, gtasks, apw, simple calendar widget, acalendar, tasks and widget, tasks list, agenda manager, tasks free, calendar agenda widget...
@ it is really very small and free software... and believe me I have purchased the biz calendar but this on is better as a widget !! It at least includes the tasks list of google account.....
Please anyone if you used some kind of this I will immediately install and try that..
I will also share this perfect one and tell you guys if I find it first....
I will update the list that are NOT the ones I am talking about...
THANK YOU !!!

I am using Nowa launcher along with my Omega Rom v18.
Seriously, this became something I am now obsessed with... it's really very bad that you cant remember the name when it's on the tip of your tongue...
You could try in Note2 (GT-N7100) forum in Q & A section. They will help you for sure.
By the way, this is Note1 (GT-N7000) app and theme section.. you might be mistaken..!!!!!
Sounds like splanner to me. Only app to sync with facebook and google and google tasks.
Did you have this widget on your launcher previously or have you opted for a new firmware?
Google splanner widget and see. Since you are so obsessed thought you wouldve done it by now.
Also yeah i naturally assumed you were talking about the original note as this is our forum.

Searching for special launcher feature

Hi Folks,
I just wanted to know if there's a launcher that shows the app shortcuts either ONLY on the Homescreen or in the drawer when it has not been placed on the Homescreen. For Example the telephone app has no function in the drawer, because its always on the main side of the Homescreen.
I would find this very useful!
thanks in advance
P.s. after posting i realized that this is not the right forum for this but i don't know how to delete or transfer it. Sorry bout that dear Admin.

I know that you can hide Apps in the drawer. But i don't really get what you mean with hiding groups. I want Apps to AUTOMATICALLY "hide" when i place an app to homescreen.

your are right, you don't like it(launcher) or anything else?
And few questions and suggestions:
What's the language of the app ? In video it is in Chinese.
This app is a launcher, and will it support/ display notification count on the app icons ?
Add different app drawer styles options.
Make app drawer transparent and style like below screenshot.
The current drawer of ur launcher is too old style.
The screenshot given is stock marshmallow look with transparent background. Icons also is stock marshmallow. Now all are looking for stock material design. So requesting u to make it like that.
Your concept is very good I like it. The only thing I don't like is the icons and the drawer style

Currently, it's only support English and French.
Now, the product is mainly used launcher technology, but aims to implement the user's exclusive space to protect the privacy of host user.
So we don't support notification count on the app icons, but we will consider added it later.

If u guys update the app with notification count badge support and transparent background app drawer with stock style and stock icons, sure I will use this app. As I said I'm looking for this type app earlier and didn't find one. So I'm interested in this app if u guys do as I said to improve the looks and functions. And add lock option to the blabla settings.
And Why blabla is accessing internet ? For what need ?

Well used this privacy guard launcher for few days.
The working is smooth as compared to other launchers. But the icon are too big and there is no option for changing the size. No icon pack can be applied on this app. App drawer is little bit confusing looks like messed . App drawer not like stock grid style. App drawer is transparent that a good thing. No notification badge feature for unread count . Every time we need to lock the screen to switch between profiles, will be good if any swipe features to switch between profiles from the main screen itself.
This app is not available on playstore , I'm from Indian .

Yes icon size on desktop is too big.
It's great if you provide icon pack. But you need to add option to choose stock system icon pack also
I mean app drawer like Nova launcher with transparent background.
Sometimes your app automatically close and system launcher will come to work.
Notification count badge on app icon is important one don't miss that in the update.

Just now I checked the Nova Launcher, its whole layout is inherit from android origin design.
But Our app drawer added alphabetical layout.

[APP][Launcher]Google Pixel launcher - Leaked (Updated 9/16)

Google Pixel Launcher​
Google Pixel launcher leaked, Here is what has changed since Nexus launcher
The latest update does not bring much in terms of UI changes but small questions. "Minor changes" like navigation bar being transparent with more apps in the app drawer and icon size, a bit smaller.
>>The search bar on the top of app drawer “Search Apps” is a bit smaller but erratic device to device, which will be fixed with future versions.
>> Pixel launcher now supports landscape mode unlike the Google Now launcher, though you need to toggle the setting from the settings menu.
>>The app has been split into two parts, first one being the main app launcher and the second one being the Wallpaper interface.
Thanks for sharing.
Quickly tested, it is too simple as launcher not enough basic features, i.e. too stock for me.
Not able to change date position or color.
Not able to display apps in another way that a list.
