Mod Google Now Launcher

Hi,
I want to add a column in the homescreen of google now launcher, but I don't know where to start!!
Could anyone do it for me or explain me how to do it??
Thanks a lot![emoji1] [emoji4]

PS I can't attach any link or file of GNL and Google Search apks extracted from my device! If I can I try to put a link in the comments

Oh no! I can't put any link! And I can attach files only from my gallery or my camera!
However, I ve got android lollipop google now launcher and google search. Thanks

Hey DgDav99, you can install "XGEL Settings" which is an Xposed module. This will allow you to completely modify Google's Experience Launcher as if it is Nova, Apex, etc. This will allow you to add a column, and also keep the quick swipe for Google Now. Hope that helps! Just note that you obviously must have root access to install Xposed.

He mentioned that he was using Lollipop.
As of this moment, Xposed is still not functional on Lollipop so theres no way he can use XGELS.
Sorry buddy but to be able to modify the GNL, you will have to go back to 4.4 at least and then root it, install Xposed and then install XGELS.
If you don't want to do that, you can use a different launcher such as Nova Launcher as of the current beta looks a lot like GNL and is highly customisable.
The only downside is that there is no "Swipe to left for Google Now"

I think some people need to learn how the hell to read stuff before popping off at the mouth.

Sorry, I didn't explain me. I'm on kitkat 4.4.2, but I'm running the GNL of lollipop(I don't remember the version)!
However, I know xGELs module, but I prefer waiting xposed for lollipop because my phone will Be updated soon. I only would like to know if there were others methods to modify GNL (for example modifying apk...) thanks

I'm not sure if there's a way to do that but you can use Xposed Framework with Xposed GEL Settings module to accomplish what you wanna do while on KitKat 4.4.2 until your phone is updated like a previous user mentioned

You can post a link as long as you put a space in the middle, like google .com, and even putting the link in the browser, people can just take out the space.

[ROM] [CLOSED] Phoenix OS ROOTED/GAPPS (Android 6.0.1 With Windows)

I closed this thread because the rules are that if you didn't develop it you shouldn't post it. Since I didn't develop it and only added a few things, I decided to close the thread.
For those of you who like the windowing feature I am using Android 7 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/development/rom-saosp-n-t3473634 along with Taskbar from the Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farmerbb.taskbar . Taskbar allows you to have fully functional windows for all your apps. I combine it with LMT Launcher from XDA to quickly launch other apps from any screen.

Hi all you Nexus 7 flo diehards. First I am not a dev, but I would like to get testers of a Marshmallow ROM that has truly functional windowing.
The devs at Chaozhuo have released it. I have been using it for a while and it is fast and fluid and reliable.
Check their website at http://www.phoenixos.com/en_US/
For all of you with TWRP recovery I have a link to a TWRP backup made with 3.0.2-0 that will allow you to begin testing it.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3gcDbDvV4MkS1pwS3pYWTQ4WUU/view?usp=drivesdk
This is a fresh install. A few problems right now:
1 No Google Play Services or Play Store
2 No launcher, just a desktop (LMT launcher does work)
3 Not rooted but you can flash SuperSU
Give it a try and post your comments in this thread.
I am a senior XDA poster so you can trust the download.
If you're happy then please hit the thanks button. And don't forget to post here good/bad experiences.

Thanks. I find that a launcher isn't a necessity with a desktop like Windows. Also LMT launcher gives me instant access to my most used apps.

@jbaumert is working on installing GAPPS. I hope to hear from him soon.
I've sideloaded a number of apps but I agree that Play Store is necessary for full functionality.

Thank you for sharing your TWRP backup @lollyjay I have tested PhoenixOS now for a while. Of course it still has some bugs (especially the camera), but it looks very very nice and runs smoothly. Hopefully the next update features some fixes, improved translations, google services + apps and the possibility to fade out the taskbar.

Just a reminder that any app installed from the Play Store you need to manually set permissions. Settings/Apps/select the app/Permissions

Does video out through slim port adapter is possible/working?

Different Launcher
Is there a workaround to install a different launcher? I think there's a solution but for x86 PC's only. I find the desktop not so much appropriate for nexus 7 flo because of its small size (7'' only).

Nougat Debloat Script

I don't know if there is already a thread for this, but I created this debloating flashable script for my friend that owns S7 Edge, and it did the job nicely :good: so i wanted to share it with you.
I am not responsible for anything that happens, i am asking you kindly to make a nandroid backup if you don't have one, before flashing this.
NOTE
This script will also remove following apps:
SmartManager (Since i consider it to be bloat which is eating up resources.
Themes.
If you want to exclude those apps, just open updater-script, and edit it using Notepad++ and remove lines which includes those apps :good:
Download:
Nougat Debloat Flashable

Thanks bro

Thank you for your deloat script. However, It is missing the Sync Contacts. Would you please add it back to the script. Much appreciated.

Can you list the apps, I don't have root but do have package disabler

How do we use this 'tool'?
I got a completely stock S7 Edge with no root. Is this something I can use?

Yes, there's a tool in the playstore called Package Disabler Pro which let's you disable these packages. Costs a dollah or two though

Friendly advice, if you are rooted, there is no need to pay any kind of money for a Package Disabler, just get twrp and flash this script, this won't just disable bloatware like already mentioned app, This will completly remove it from your system.

Link is not working. Please check

Ask the developers of the apps and themes! ?
Andromeda is Oreo only at this point,you probably have pie. (It even says so in play store)
Swift installer works great so I'm happy

You might be right about that, but you never know. Pie restricts 3rd party theming without root access (which i hate pie). So rooting might be essential for OP if OP decides to get/already has pie.

It says in twrp "file is corrupt" install failed

same issue as previous versions, dont install or made any change in device ( Galaxy A30 with Anndroid 11 OneUI 3.1 )

Same issue... S10+... I installed on twrp as instructed but no change in the system like never installed. I put manually with root explorer...

Perfect, everything is working good on S10+. Fyi I use the incallUi 13.0.00.38 version from beta 12 as well and it's working good too
I didn't use the zip, I directly replaced apks with root explorer on my rooted device.
Thank you for your work Alexis

Everything working good on my s9+ with noble rom 1.5. I flash the zip with twrp 3.3.1.0. Thanks for the excellent work.

can you tell how to replace apks ? where to put them ?
thanks in advance.

I don't understand these zips because I thought you would have to be on android 12 api to have them work. I havent tried it yet but ive tried them in the past and it always fails. So I don't see how it can work. Maybe an explanation could help.

She probably wont tell you because on XDA whenever someone figures something out they think it makes them special or more knowledgeable and they ignore people asking.
I however don't do that. The way it works is you have to extract the apks into a select folder and than you have to have root access to put them in your system folder that already has the clock apk for example. But heres the trick no one will tell you that makes the difference. You have to sign the apk and you do with apk signer pro on the playstore for a 1 or 2 dollars or theres other ways. Than you want to keep backups of the apk and remove it out of the system folder and replace it with the new apk with the same name and 644 permissions. I did it with the clock app to test it and it worked. Its takes forever and there really isnt nothing new so its pointless in some sense. However thats how you do it. What I gave was an explanation youll notice that on a website designed for people who want to do more with their phones you see short answers without any explanation at all and the truth is because they dont want to tell anyone. They say I dont spoon feed noobs. Cant ask for ETAs because the truth is they dont know if they can figure out how to update it or fix anything. Good luck
The biggest feature is no ads with the apps however if your rooted with AdAway you shouldn't have any ads because Ive never had a an ad in the weather app. Think of this way when you ask their thinking hahaha I know something you dont know lol. Than when you figure it out youll be resentful and bitter so youll do the same thing to anyone that ask you because you'll say to yourself no one ever helped me out so they can figure out themselves and of course hahaha I know something you dont know lol. This has to stop

You guys want to a know how to get the S21 ultra Google/Samsung messages app that was only for the S21 ultra? You download it off apkmirror and install it I've been using it on my S10 lite now since it came out. You can actually use it on other phones to my S7 has it on Pixel rom Android 11.
