My Honor 6+ always seems to round off icons and place then on a colored background. Even when I use the Google Now Launcher, for a more stock-like experience.
Can I stop EMUI 3.0 from messing with icons?
Thanks

If google now launcher supports icon packs , then you can .
It doesn't directly, but I found a theme for EMUI3 that helps.. Here ...

Use nova launcher and Moonshine icon pack.
Using any other launcher and the Home button always takes me back to Emui honor launcher !! Set default home to 3rd party launcher but always goes back to Emui......
Regards as always
EMUI always changes your icons (the emui theme is always in use), even when you are using another lauchner. The theme engine is always at work, it either changes your icons completely or uses some kind of overlay to change the look,
You can try my "Clean" them from here, I made it because of this behavior (it does not mess with the icons because it does not use any):

You need to set the home launcher in the settings/Manage apps/Default apps page.

Yep, did that and pressing the centre circle home key loads huawei home back.

I tried searching for this and didn't find it, and I'm really curious about it.
Is it possible for the swipe left to google now (which looks incredibly smooth in the KitKat videos) to be implemented into launchers such as nova and apex? Or is that going to be a stock launcher only thing?
Just to clarify, I'm asking if a future version of Nova/apex will be able to copycat this design, not just implement another gesture that opens the google now app. The beauty of these launchers now is that they appear very similar to aosp, but they have many more features. Will that no longer be possible after this change?
Nova (paid) already has gestures that you can set to launch any app. There are 9 gestures although swipe left isn't one of them - not that it matters

Right, I guess that is one option, but it is more jarring to switch to a totally different app than the swipe gesture that it looks like KItKat has. That seem so fluid, almost like it's just another home screen.

From what I was reading, I believe that in 4.4 it actually IS another screen. I mean it's not just that the app is hidden in the background and uncovered by a gesture, it is an option to have google now to take up a page in the layout.

Nova right now cant do anything like the google launcher for kk. When you swipe right there is an actual google now home page.

It sure is first you've got too activate Google now its in the Google search settings somewhere

i really hope that nova will implement this and all the other cool stuff from the new kk launcher... something like a more customizable stock launcher
The google launcher is basically an extension of the Google search app. Kind of like Facebook home. I doubt nova will be able to integrate this unless the build it themselves into nova. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013...e-kitkats-primary-interface-is-google-search/

I suppose an app like GMD gestures could help you achieve the same effect

I think it would be cool if you can swipe left to any app of your choice, even if the app has to go on pause.

Remove what? The launcher? You can just install Apex launcher and use that instead if you wanted. If you really wanted to remove it you will need to uninstall it through titanium backup, but I wouldn't recommend that.

Hi I have a problem with my 8gb moto g occasionally the apps disappear I can click somewhere on the screen and it will start that app but can't see anything.
Seems like that's a glitch with the launcher. Try switching to nova launcher or apex launcher (you can download them from google play). You'll get more features from them too.

You're welcome, it seems that the default firmware on the moto g has issues with transparency in general, because sometimes chrome graphically glitches like this too. Maybe try a custom rom like cyanogenmod if you get more issues.

Hi i'd like to try and keep the phone standard don't want to void the warranty by putting a custom ROM on there anyway I'm on nova launcher now it is working great love the resizable widgets, thanks so much for your help. This is a very strange problem my last phone was a Chinese dual sim phone the standard launcher on that worked perfect I suppose for the great price of this phone we can expect a few small issues.
Talking about transparency... I noticed it with incoming call contact image. It displays only half of the image and the part where are the buttons is black.

Hi i'd say the only solution if you don't want to install a different launcher is to wait for Motorola to release a software update. As for the home menu, you can change your default launcher with that and network operator just let's you automatically or manually select your operator.
Hello everyone,
since Saturday I got a new Xperia Z5 after using my beloved Galaxy S2 for 4 (or 5?) years.
Honestly, I didn't want a new phone, but it was just too slow and finally didn't function any more.
So now I am personalizing my new Phone, but am really disturbed by the app menu.
Apps on different pages, where I have to scroll and look for an app? What is this? 2010?
I am so used to the list view on TouchWiz and Cyanogenmod.
How do I get that onto my Xperia Z5 Phone?
Here are some screenshots for clarification. (sorry I can't post links yet)
I have this: googledrive.com/host/0B71qahVEwjt5X1RPY2pSVmdPWmc/gridview
(currently using Google Now Launcher, which is at least closer to what I want)
I want this: androidbeat.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/CM13-app-drawer.png
Or what would even be better, but I guess not possible, this: cdn.cultofandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/applistview.jpg
I hope you know what I mean and can help me.
BR,
Rastla
quite easy to do with another launcher. You can do it with nova launcher how you want it.
And wth!? Nothing easier than a Sony ui menu. Almost complete stock Android. You should even have a quick search bar on top, you can move your apps in the app draw where you want them to be etc.
It's all a little more overviewed compared to Samsung, that's one reason I love sony's ui so much

stock sony ui doesn't have a search bar at top (only the google now launcher).
its just that old grid view i know from early android days. i would even go so far, to compare it to windows 98.
it's impractical and definitively not good overviewed imho.
what can be more practical than a simple A-Z list?

I settled for the Google Now Launcher and the alphabetical icons since it's not too different from the stock launcher and has no ads

Nice. It's really good. I've tried the previous one(month ago maybe), but the big Google widget just driver me crazy and I delete it 10 minutes after that.

Ofc not..
I like the slide up animation and the smooth feeling of it, but compared to e.g. Nova Launcher - it's not even close.
I know there's a hype on this launcher, but can somebody tell me - what's so great in it?
Also - Google App does not appear on the left side.

I can't get why someone should tell you what is great and what is not in this launcher? If you like it, use it, if not, then there are tons of other launchers. And let's not forget that "great" is not same for everyone and all have different liking and needs.

Transparent dock background not working on beta 10. Shows first but disappears after i slide up to drawer. And the animation is pretty awkward from light transparent to whiteish to black.
Pretty sure this is just a link to the APK by team blacked out, which is originally in a zip file so you can flash it as a system app allowing the slide left Google now functionality to remain

not really, the home gesture doesnt work if you use the two-side return method.
i changed it to sliding from bottom (left is multi task, home then back on the right)
so the home launcher can be set to an alternate one without issues/phone reverting to the inbuilt launcher? double tap to wake works? thanks
