Ok so I couldn't find anyone having the same issue in the Leedroid rom thread, so I figured I would ask here.
Does anyone elses screen freeze on the app drawer or home screens and only unfreezes when you pull the notification bar down?
I have tried turning the screen off and then back on and going into the app drawer changing the home screen (only freezes when I get to that point).
It doesn't happen all the time either. And it has been happening since the phone was stock and even now as it is rooted. I'm trying to say, I will press power button, slide lock ring, enter pattern, screen will show up, try to spin to another home screen but screen will not move, touch buttons work and volume works and power works but screen will not move. Press app drqwer and it opens but will not move either.....drag the notification bar down and everything works again.....
Hello!
For those who can not remove the Search Bar from the Home Screen, I found a way to do it.
This is for CyanogenMod 11, KitKat 4.4.3 Build 14/06/2014:
On the Home Screen, you press and hold the screen, untill the "wallpapers/widgets/themes" options come out.
When that happens, press the three dots that look like an arrow, it will open another menu with lots of options to change.
There, the first option you can change is the Search Bar, turn it off. Press the three dots again to minimize the menu, hit back and that's it.
Hope this helped.
This is actually pretty helpful. As I never knew there was extra features like these on the new Trebuchet launcher.
Nice find!

You are welcome!
Yes, I found it by mistake, and didn't know how to get to that place again... But once I did, I wanted to share this with everyone.
Now we don't need to change the Trebuchet launcher to get rid of that. Even though it's bugged... When getting the "trebuchet has stopped" error (when adding a widget on the home screen), I just reboot the phone, and it's working again. Although even this sucks...
But at least I'm happy I found how to get rid of that annoying search bar.

Thanks a lot man, very helpful!
I hate Google search bar......
Thanks
I'm having the same issue. I just installed Cyanogenmod on my phone and when I was customizing the home screen, I saw exactly what the OP shows in his screenshots. However, after installing Google Apps, that screen has changed. It only shows the Wallpapers, Widgets and Settings buttons, and no button to expand settings. Pressing the menu button doesn't do anything either. In both cases I was using the default Android theme.
Cyanogenmod version 12.1. Android version 5.1.1
Cyanogenmod version 12.1. Android version 5.1.1

This is simple trick and worked .Thanks
works for me, thanks
Android 5.1.1
Cyanogen version 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL
You are all welcome! Glad to help.
thanks
Same question; Moto g4 stock. Do I really need to install a launcher or ROM to get rid of a single UI feature?
Hi All,
I am currently on CM11 and it's running great! But, one of the feature that i miss from stock was the ability to have the home button to always show. on CM11, when running certain apps (clash of clans, sonic, etc) the game goes to full screen and i have to swipe from top or side to get the home button to show. but, sometimes it's not that easy and i have to swipe multiple times, which is a pain with a cover on, to get the home button to show.
Is there a way around this? one of xposed module perhaps? or can Gravity Box change this setting?
Thank you!

Look for a setting to disable "immersive mode" on your ROM.
Hello Everyone,
I don't know if I am missing something, but since the button on the Blu Pure XL do not light up... I wanted to add the bottom navigation bar with the back home and switch button but I can't!
I have installed Google Now Launcher... Nothing.
I have Nova Premium... Nothing.
Any suggestions?
Thank You
My buttons never light up even if I use another launcher .. if I hold the phone a certain way in the light - i can see them. But I have a general idea where they are so I just press the general area. Most times I hit it .. sometimes it takes a couple of taps.

I am aware that the buttons do not light up... i am trying to add the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen (on screen, software), so I would not have to worry about the hardware buttons.

I have just done this so it is confirmed working. First off you need to be rooted and have busybox installed. And if you are rooted you have twrp installed so I would recommend doing a backup. Anyway download a app called soft buttons from the play store. Open the app, open menu go down to capacitive keys menu open that and click on disable capacitive keys. Once all the permissions stuff stops popping up on the screen open menu and click on virtual keys menu then click on enable virtual keys. Wait till all the permissions stop popping up on the screen then reboot your phone. Once your rebooted you will have virtual menu buttons and your regular capacitive keys will be disabled so you don't hit them on accident.
There are also options to reverse the process a far as re enabling capacitive keys and disabling virtual keys as I have decided to do because I'd rather have the 1/4 inch or whatever of screen that it takes up.
Hi,
I have a Cube t8 plus running Android 5.1
After a few days of use the menu on home screen that comes up after a long press is not working.
All that happens is a white / grey translucent square nearly the full size of the screen appears whilst the screen is pressed - no widget menu etc - this disappears after the screen is pressed again.
I have un-installed all the apps I had installed, and returned any settings I had changed but still have the same problem.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Many thanks in advance..
