RESQUEST: Remove 'Snap to Grip' desktop Icons

Hello everyone,
i've searched a lot on the web, and in XDA forum, and only found here one topic related to nexus one, about this.
Is there any app that can remove this feauture of snap to grid ?
It's a waste of space on the desktop and it limits the number of widgets we can use because it says 'not enought space on this desktop', even if it is an 1x1 widget and its visible there is space enought !
Can anyone give + info ?
Thank You.

use adw launcher and set desktop row to 8 X 8 ?

If you want more application Icons on desktop then you need More Icons Widget. its not free, but im guessing you have the same app free with less features.

Fair enough.
Off-topic: Looking back at my post, it shows that I really can't type well at all, especially in the morning...

[Q] Which launchers support transparent statusbar?

Hello! In GB roms it is possible to have transparent/ semi transparent statusbar, but unfortunately not all launchers support this. For example in Go launcher it will only show as a plain color. I know SweeterHome supports this. Which other launchers support transparent statusbar?
Thanks in advance

I think the topic owner want to say about "transparent notification bar", not Dock-bar.

In that case no launcher will do it, because the notification bar is not part of the launcher.

well try uot kitchen they have transparent notification bar...and the kitchen is easy to use.

ADW EX (and possibly the free version) will allow you to do it.
In ADW settings go to "General Behavior", then "System Preferences". Uncheck "Wallpaper Hack", and voila. You may need to restart ADW afterwards.

Whatsapp globe notification

Hi!
Not sure whether my problem affects you all or it's just my phone.
A globe notification was added to whatsapp some months ago, just like iPhone notifications, but it was only for Samsung devices. Well, I've seen it in a lot of Samsung devices except mine.
Do you have the same problem? I mean, when I receive a notification I can only see it on the status bar, not in the icon.
Thank you all.

it's dependent on the launcher, not the phone itself.
are you using stock or 3rd party launcher?

I'm using stock rom, but then I don't get it,
am I supposed to use a custom launcher to use a function that should work on stock rom?

What does a globe notification looks like?

again it has nothing to do with the ROM, it should work in the stock TW launcher (I think it's called TouchWiz Home)

I'm using Nova launcher and TeslaUnread. TeslaUnread gives the Nova launcher the ability to display notification count over the icons

Oh that, surprisingly Tesla is not showing that for Whatsapp for me. I have that on Messenger, Hangout, but not Whatsapp and other apps.
EDIT: I just realised I did not tick Whatsapp in Tesla... I will try out first

Thank you so much,
but what I was trying to say is that every device I've seen has that globe notification, and no one had another launcher, not even they were rooted!
I just don't get why I have to use some launcher to get that feature.

sorry for double post
this is what I mean
as you can see, no whatsapp notification!

Is it in the default launcher?It should be fine.

yes, it's the default one
do you guys have that globe or it's just me?

Sorry for double post! but I just want to say I've finally know how to enable it!
it only works on Whatsapp+, you can download it over there. There is an option where you can enable the counter and change the color!
thanks to everyone!

[APP] Asus Launcher for OnePlus 2 {ZenUI Launcher}

Here is the Awesome Launcher from Asus Zenfone.
The default launcher of OxygenOS felt too boring that why I ported Asus Launcher from My Old Zenfone 5 for OnePlus X/2.
Just download and install it as Normal App and it should work fine without any bugs
Working in OnePlus 2, tested by @kishan12345
Download:
Asus Launcher.apk

Enable Unknown Sources by going to Settings, scroll down to Security, and select Unknown sources. Selecting this option will allow you to install apps outside of the Google Play store. :laugh:

AnI twilight app or night filter active?

It gave me an update for the launcher from playstore and it worked out of the box. So i don't think it requires any modification to the apk.

Very good launcher thanks

Very nice launcher, thank you

i wil try it

Thank you very much for this!

You can directly download it from
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asus.launcher

the launcher is very smooth and the apps open very quick.. and the transitions are also great

Asus has just made their launcher available for every android device on the google play.

Samsung GameBox launcher

Anyone else try the new GameBox launcher? It was available for me in Galaxy Apps. Basically Game Launcher on steroids as it's an actual full-blown launcher that acts as a front end for all your games and incorporates all the Samsung game tools. Looks pretty, but I can't see using it as a full time launcher. I do have it set as a swipe action in Nova Launcher so I can access it by swiping the app drawer button.

Interesting. I had never heard of it before but it looks pretty neat. Going to give it a try.

It's not an app, it's an actual launcher. I use it like an app though by setting it via a shortcut through Nova Launcher.

Go to "Settings", "Applications", "Default Applications", "Home Screen", then select "GameBox" and hit the home key.

I have the S7 (non edge model) and was able to find and download this the other day on the Galaxy apps site but today I cant find it. is anyone else having this problem or was this originally intended only for the edge users?
*edit* never mind I found it on the google play store. it's now listed as an app that is not available in my country!

Thanks i use apex and made a icon of the app like you and it works perfect!!
Sorry for my english
