slow down app drawer open/close speed - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to slow down the app drawer's opening and closing speed? I prefer it to be smooth and slow instead of lightning fast haha.

Try changing the animation scales in developer options

Did you try all 3 animations?
Other option, try a different launcher

yep!

I've tried all three but no go. I really want to just use google launcher, so if anyone knows how to modify the app drawer open and closing speed let me know!

How does it not? It's a standard Android feature.
Menu -> Settings ->Display -> Animation -> No animations
Or did you mean the Launcher Menu (Drawer)? Because you aren't being very specific.

What Launcher??

Hey guys
What launcher is everyone using? I seem to have some lag scrolling between screens on go launcher!!
Roll on custom roms

same question here
adw is almost unusable
I found the same thing pretty much, that's why I've kept with TW for now, and to be honest, this is the only device I can actually cope with Touch Wiz on lol.

Hey guys.. found a solution for now..
Im using launcherpro and i bumped all the opening speeds up to max etc, now theres no lag when opening stuff!
thanks I'll try
think i may of been to quick off the mark.. still some lag on scrolling
Yeah, LP has been the best performing launcher on all my devices to date and i too bump all the speeds to ten but i get lag, ill just twiddle thunbs till ICS
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Exactly the same here, Launcher Pro is no match for the stock TW....
The same here GoLauncher EX was too laggy...TW seems to run smoother than others---

I use Go Launcher EX and don't find it lags at all. I did use Titanium backup to stop TouchWiz launcher and its widgets from running.
Also you can download Spare Parts Pro for free and set Windows and Transition Animations to fast, this will speed up all the animations on the phone.
Hey I'm also using GoLauncher and at first there was a little lag but I solved it in this way:
Goto Preferences, Screen settings, Screen Transition Effects, Custom, and set Speed = 25 and Elastic = 55.
I've done that and its very usable, still stutters on drawing a GoWidget but I only have one so it's all good
I'd say increasing the speed would cause more stutter as its trying to redraw faster, so slower is the key.
I can't wait until they fully utilise the gpu as that seems to be causing the issue, either that or the fact that I haven't fully disabled TouchWiz..

hmm, my note should arrive either later this week or early next week. i might try out shell3d to see if it works well with the note.
Try zeam launcher and disable wallpaper scrolling in the settings. The smoothest launcher I was able to use on the note.

It's CM10.1 + paranoidandroid + aokp so the extra system overhead causes the lag.

I was just bout to say the same....... I'm sure with some tweaking, I can reduce this lag. Just have to wait and see. My OG is asleep on the Welcome Screen for the night, because that is how I usually do to let it ALL settle in. Although, I flashed the NoA2SD version straight up, so I don't know if that will make a difference. Either way, it is still PAC-man 4.2.2 on the OG. Can't say it hasn't been done.
Sweetness presented to us again from the great Wambo,nice stuff brother.
Like the NBA Jam game, Wambo is on fire! We are getting ROMs on the OG Evo I'd thought I'd never see.

To help a little with the lag, I go to settings/developer options, scroll down towards the middle & turn off the animations. Change all 3 from 1x to off. I think it makes a difference, you might not.
And by the way, I'll say it here too, thanks a sh!t ton for this Eric, love this on my og. Running great still, thanks bro!
Sent from my SPH-l900 using JellyBombed Tapatalk 2
No problem man. I appreciate it. As I said, as long as I have to use this phone, its gonna get 4.2.2. I saw the light with the Note2 for a little bit and there was nothing quite like it. I'm hooked on jellybean. :beer:
P.S. my default action is always turning animations to off, then sideloading Nova and disabling there too. Yes. Works like a champ here.
Yea I always either turn off animation or set it to.5x

Side load=have a backup copy from play store in an app folder on my sdcard. Go into file explorer and tap to install.
I meant to add it into the ROM, but I got lazy. Its a lot smoother than Trebuchet imho.

Not necessarily sideloading it makes it smoother, I mean nova in general. In Nova Settings - Look and Feel - Scroll Speed and Animation Speed set to faster than light.

Change the grid size in default launcher?

I'm rooted using Kangabean. I changed the DPI to 400. Widgets look a little strange. How do I change the grid size of the default launcher? I don't want to use a different launcher. I don't want to lose Google Now and the active listening abilities.
Thanks.

You will have to wait for a modified stock launcher or a rom with that feature for that bro, you can`t change the grid in the stock launcher afaik. Look here for a mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps when its available.

I've found this launcher, kitkat and ART compiler to be sweet bliss. Swipe to left is buttery smooth with ART and 4.4.

If I install this GEL apk and end up not liking it, it is just a simple matter of uninstalling it or do I have to install the original launcher back?

Just clear defaults. Just like any other launcher. So you'll be good. If you have kitkat, you can do it from here (within settings>home):
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
I just installed it and did not realize how large all the icons are now. is there a way around this? otherwise I may have to go back to the original kitkat launcher?
what other differences are there?
I do like the google now swipe right though.

The icons come with the launcher. Solution for smaller ones is to use a different launcher.

Grab an icon and drag it to the right, off the edge of the screen. The GE launcher will create a new home screen for you to drop it on. Drag back to the left and it will remove the unused home screen.
After weeks use of this launcher, there is only one annoyance. The launcher keeps adding a page for reasons I'm not sure of and the page indicator is a plus sign instead of a dot. Can't figure out why it keeps doing that. I have to fix it by adding an icon on the screen and taking it out to have it disappear. See Screenshot.

Happens to me on occasion. I actually think it's by design. It's not always there on mine, it's almost like a hint or tip. It's not always there.
That's the best I got...

have you installed new app? it seems to happen from what I've noticed on new app install on the stock launcher also.
if you select the stock launcher and get rid of the app off the home screen it seems to go away
Re up
Can somebody re up? It appears the link in the op goes to an empty folder. Thanks in advance.
