No, it doesn't have native support for Nova Launcher, unfortunately.
I remember when I still had my Mate7 there was a thread I came across in those forums where they found a way to add apps, but it requires root, and sadly it still didn't work for Nova, but worked on pretty much anything else.
The workaround I used on my MT7 was to open any app first and then open the dual window launcher to choose the second app. But no luck direct from Nova

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.

look at the name of the shortcut.. it's LG launcher 2 hidden menu.. so yeah its a stock launcher hidden menu. you can use anycut or something else to launch different shortcuts that are otherwise hidden, but he's using a different launcher to launch the hidden shortcut.

Check that it is right one that you try to launch. There are 2 pretty similar names. Another one doesn't work.

I'm sure. I tried all of them.
Is there anything in the hidden menu worth doing this for?

I'm getting to the end of step two then when I try to get into the settings I get this force close when I tap that home icon that you see at the top of my homescreen (That's what the activities widget turned into). I'm on a rooted stock D801 on T-mobile

I'm only interested in changing a few settings on the LG launcher, does anybody know of a way to do basic stuff like change the alignment from 5x5 to something else?
*EDIT* found it! got it to work. you go into Home > the second hiddenmenu thing, not the first one you see.
As you can see at the bottom, no names on my dock icons. Feature_hotseat_notext did that

Google Now works great when I click on the homepage search bar that opens the Google Now screen but is one of you able to get Google Now to listen actively on the home screen to: OK Google, followed by a voice command? I am using the ViperOneM8 rom and Open Mic+ for Google Now does not seem to work
As a one step workaround I use Nova launcher and swipe up to start Google Now but like the active listening functionality.
Google's Home Launcher offers this. I use it.

Thank you for your suggestion, David but I like to keep Nova as my launcher instead of changing to the Google Home/Now Launcher.

It wasn't really a suggestion.. The Google Now Launcher is what does it.

There's currently no other way to get the always listening behavior on the homescreen.

But to use Google Home/Now Launcher. :laugh::good:
Good news! Nova Launcher has been updated and now supports the "OK, Google" hot voice word on every launcher screen.

There is also an Xposed module (search OKGoogle) for this...
Almost every third party launcher now supports this. I'm using smart launcher and I have always listening on.
Just curious how many people use different non Samsung apps on their Note 5 ?
- Keyboard ? I use Google Keyboard, I found the stock Samsung keyboard too cramped
- Text app ? I tried stock messages but didn't like it, so went back to Textra
- Themes ? I don't like the look of stock TW, so I went with the Material Dark theme
- Browser = Chrome
- Launcher = NOVA
Anyone else use different non Samsung apps ?
Another question regarding the stock messages app;
On the stock Messages app, I hate that little description that pops up for 2 seconds when about to type or reply to a Group Message ? It says like " Group messaging will now be converted, blah, blah blah " How can I turn that off, or stop it from popping up each time when replying to a group text ?
Same apps as you except I use action launcher instead of Nova. Also use Google calendar just because of the widget. the stock calendar app isnt bad.

Nova launcher pro, swiftkey keyboard, hangouts for sms, chrome browser, aosp calculator, Google calendar, Google Keep for notes, i pretty much delete every Samsung app as soon as i get root on these phones.
I use squid as my writing pad, has some cool features.
Can the google keyboard use the spen features?

Can't confirm that the Google Keyboard does but I would think it does. Swiftkey ( my keyboard of choice ) allows the use of the SPen.
I use Fleksy KB. It's the bomb diggy!

The spen feature should work with any keyboard specifically because it pops up if you hover wherever you can do text input.
SwiftKey, Opera browser, Power Amp

I am using Apex launcher but the middle circle always routes me to the default launcher. How do I change that ?
Apex has the option to be set as default launcher but this need some tweaking to happen.

Trying to use app shortcuts with Nova Launcher (got prime) and the Google apps are the only apps that shows shortcuts when long pressing the icons.
Is this a limitation in Emui?

Nope it's just that other apps didn't bother updating to support it.

Try with Twitter and see if it does work. If it does then, the apps you tried don't have that feature
