Huawei Mate 9 Pro not liking Nova Launcher Prime - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

I have installed and configured the Nova Launcher, primer version, and everything looks fine but the phone keeps resetting to the default launcher.
I have tried changing the default launcher in EMUI and from the settings in Nova Launcher, but it always goes back to the default launcher after a while.
Is anyone else experiencing the same annoying issue? If yes, any suggestions on how to permantly fixed this?

i had the exact same issue when i first installed Nova. So i uninstalled it(just Nova, not Prime) and reinstalled and all is good.

Only if I have some live wallpaper set up and I uninstall it. Then the Nova will crash and emui resets back to original launcher

I'm using nova from the beginning and no issues at all.
I think I've read somewhere that you cannot use Huawei's widget along with nova launcher.
So maybe remove any widget that came with Huawei? Including the time widget.

I used to have this problem until I turned off all the optimisations for nova launcher.

Launcher pro FC on shortcut changes

I got launcher pro installed as a system app with proper permissions and it runs fine.
Only problem is that if you try to change the dock shortcut or add an application shortcut via the widgets menu, it will FC.
Any one get LP working 100%, am i missing some libraries or a different install procedure?
Any one having these problems with other launchers? ADW?
I am having the same problem with ADW Launcher
Same problem with LauncherPro on rooted Nook Tablet. Can add widgets with no problem, but selecting "Shortcuts" immediately brings up error window. This pretty much makes the launcher app worthless.

[Q] New 4.0 update - some bugs...

Hey all,
I have noticed ever since the new update that when I have go launcher ex running as my active launcher, at times the widgets on my home screen do not update.
Funny thing is, when I auto rotate the screen and then rotate it back to normal the widgets update. I actually have to do this to update them.
Anyone else have this issue with go launcher ex? I have contacted them but they do not reply so I figured to see if anyone in here has the same issue.
I am using the stock launcher right now. The problem does not appear to happen with the stock. Any good recommendation on a launcher to use momentarily that has no issues with the new 4.0?
I have also noticed that Go SMS has issues as well, it will at times not respond. Again with the stock launcher no issues with Go SMS.
It sounds like a bug in GoLauncherEx.
Try Nova Launcher (my favorite)

Or Apex Launcher

Bummer.... I like go launcher ex cause they don't make me pay for the premium app to categorize my app drawer apps in folders....
I've tried Go Launcher and the Nova and I like better the Nova to ICS

Can you restore apex_data to nova launcher

Hello,
I just wanted to ask if someone ever tried to restore apex_data (renamed so it fits to nova) into nova launcher. the data file stores the homescreen layout and since this is the same in both launchers i was wondering if it could work?
Reason why im asking is that im using apex launcher right now and i want to try nova but i do not want to put all the apps back on their screen position...
Cheers
Matt
not possible.. However you can use an app called desk migrate.. it is used to migrate home screen settings from one launcher too other.. it works on go launcher.. don't know if it works with other launcher too.. you can give it a try..
Sent from my fingers to your face using xda premium.!
At least on my GB phone desk migrate worked perfectly to get the Homescreens of the other launchers.
But havent tested it on ICS so far.
I have yet to get DeskMigrate to do anything in ICS. I've like to copy LauncherPro's desktops to Apex or Nova, but it does nothing. Offers which launcher to copy from, and that's it.
i guess nova settings can be restored in apex

Transparent Google Now Feed

Hey guys,now i really wanted the transparent google feed on nova launcher and i discovered a wierd way to do it but it's not permanent so hear it is :
1. Install pixel launcher and set it to default launcher
2. Install nova google companion app
3. Open nova launcher from pixel launcher
4. Swipe to left and it appears transparent but as long as you have pixel launcher as default launcher
So is there is a way to get while keeping nova launcher default or what ?
(Btw : I didn't test the above test on any other device so i don't know if it works on other devices)
I've tried almost anything I thought of, unfortunately couldn't get it using Nova as default

"Recents" display as stacks, not pages

Evening all.
My recent apps have suddenly decided to display in stack mode, not the swipeable horizontal page mode.
No idea why, don't like it, and haven't found a way to restore/change it back.
Many thanks for any help.
*EDIT* - Solved. I'm using Nova and had frozen the OP launcher in TiBU. Defrosting it (but still keeping Nova as my default launcher) fixed it.
I also use Nova and don't freeze OnePlus Launcher in Titanium Backup just because I want this recents horizontal style. It's a shame Nova doesn't have this feature natively.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Don't freeze/uninstall Oneplus Launcher. Or you could install quickswitch magisk module and install lawnchair change the recents provider to it which will give you back the horizon pages.
