Hi all,
I'm new to Xiaomi but not new to android. I've had the Mi Mix 3 for a couple of weeks now and I have to say, I'm having a love hate relationship with MIUI. I absolutely love the gestures but other things/issue are really starting to grate on me!
One of the things that's really annoying me is the dual WhatsApp 'permission denied' error.
I have dual WhatsApp installed and every possible permission has been enabled. Yet when I click on the dual WhatsApp icon in the app drawer (I have Nova Launcher installed) it states 'permission denied'.
However.........when I click on the normal WhatsApp icon, it gives me a choice of either launching my 'original' WhatsApp or the dual one. If I launch the dual WhatsApp from here, it starts up fine.
My question is...........why? Why are there two icons for the same app and why doesn't one of them work??
I've attached pictures to hopefully illustrate what I'm trying to say.

I have the same problem. It works just fine with Mi or Poco launcher, but I love Nova... I tried all the activities using QuickShortcutMaker but none of them starts the cloned app.
So it's a Nova Launcher issue?

Microsoft Launcher too, not just Nova
You can open it from the google search bar. ??????
This worked with Nova Launcher might work for others too

This worked for me! Thanks so much.
Use gesture
In nova launcher you can use gestures to open the app. When you'll try the gesture it'll ask you which copy of app you wanna open.

This is a very beautiful launcher. Maybe someone can mod this for new possibilities.
I concur, it does look nice. seems to run fine... but I am sticking with adw. not that there is anything wrong with this launcher. but once I find an app that works the way I like its hard to make me change... although, I would at least consider it for this launcher.

I dont use this launcher daily but it has very usefull things.
You can hide icons and uninstall files directly from appdrawer. Its light and speed.
Built in conversation widget is very usefull. You can enable/disable icon backgrounds...
What i want if anyone can do is removing home icon and disabling 3d effect.
Very nice launcher! I've try on my nexus ( JB ) It i stall and It start but contiusly reboot... It would be great If someone try to port it
I just tried this launcher on a x10 mini no way to use it ....it don't reboot but it seems not stable on my device

This launcher working great in my samsung galaxy gt 551, i love the smoothness and the conversation widget
such a shame that it didn't have scroll widget support :\
I downloaded and installed it on my Huawei Y300-0100 installation success but when i launch the app it keeps on crashing and I cannot use the phone anymore. Any fix for this? or the app itself is not compatible with my device?
Tried on my HTC Evo LTE no go

You realize the apk was posted in 2011 right? I doubt that you are going to receive any support on such an old post.

Hello everyone.
I searched a lot for this Launcher since I got registered in XDA and I found it on a Custom ROM at another specific forum related only to Motorola devices.
This Launcher is named as launcher3.apk, deodexed and is expected to run on any device running 4.4.x (or newer).
The way this is different from the others is the possibility of customize number of Rows and Collums on the Workspace, enable or disable Google Search Bar, resize widgets like on the Samsung phones (due some google widgets can't be resized if 4 or less colums as default on any version), clear, smooth and low battery consumption.
It also has the transparent app drawer and transparent app drawer button different from the google now launcher and older launchers that appears the ICS google launcher or the Jelly Bean one. If someone wants to edit it and recompile so that it could work in 4.3 or older versions, feel free to do it.
I hope all you enjoy it. [emoji23] [emoji23] :good:

Hi, when using themes, I've noticed Google apps do not get fully themed, any help with this issue?
I'm using emui 5 on mate 9 stock. Here's an example using XDA theme.
Notice that I've already tried a lot of themes posted here and g+ EMUI International
and always end up the same (all icons themed except Google ones)
I'm using stock launcher too.
Help is much appreciated

LOL anyone(7x "seen" and no responses haha)? Im thinking I'm the only one facing this problem, and it's driving me nuts.
Is there something I can do? Cause it is not cool to set a theme and see all icons changed except the Google ones
Enviado desde mi MHA-L09 mediante Tapatalk
Yes!
I had this issue and it was that all i was doing was changing the icon set and NOT running a new theme. So you have to choose a full theme that has the icon set you like then go back and change the wallpapers etc to the ones you want
Na, it doesn't work .
Also I found that mate 9 default themes doesn't theme those icons either, so I guess there is no way to theme that .
Only way to "theme" those icons is using another launcher, in which case it's not a real solution.

Hello,
I'm facing the same issue but only with the following 3 google apps : Docs, Slides, and Sheets.
I'm building my own theme and I can't figure out how to rename the icon for these 3 apps so that my custom icons are applied (here, using the app's package name doesn't work).
I don't have this problem with the other google apps.
Anyone have an idea?
I've installed Nova prime on my new mate 9 and have one issue left. When I put a direct dial icon on a page and try to launch it I get permission denied.
If I do a icon that does a message it works.
Not sure what to do here.
I have the same issue with nova launcher.... I have managed to find an app will do the same job exactly try it out. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codificador.speeddial

Will give it a try thanks.
The app suggested works OK.
Ur welcome

I have or had the same issue and solved it with an app as well. Although I never understood the problem. I even wrote to the Nova Launcher guys but they blame it on the Mate 9 - which I find hard to believe, since the SMS direct widget works.
If someone else has any other suggestions I'd welcome them, since I would like a direct dial without a third party app.

I can tell you it works on other devices. I am betting that the dialer doesn't set the proper permissions to be requested from nova. This is why that dev said it was the oem fault.

I know, I used Nova on my S5 and Note 4 for years .... that's why I'm so dissapointed that it doesn't work on my Mate anymore.
Would be interesting if other launchers have the same issue with the dialer? They should if it's really the OEM fault....

Hi,
Had the same problem with my Mate 8 and now Mate 9.
On my Mate 8 I managed to bypass the problem by changing to the Google Contacts app widget on the homescreen. That one now is missing on the stock ROM from Mate 9.
Will try to find another app.
Regards
A new update for nova launcher fixed the quick dile shortcut

I had the same issue, simply deleted the dialer from homescreen and copied the dialer from the drawer menu (which was working). That solved it for me.
my screen for showing all open apps and opening any one I tap, doesn't show many apps at a time
Here is the screen from my Moto,

Here s the screen from my doogee y6c that shows far more apps
Is there any way I can make the moto show open apps like the doogee screen?
Thanks
My understanding is the recents screen is now part of the launcher.
Try a different launcher, set as default, possibly disabling the stock launcher.
This is not a Motorola issue, it's a change in android.
Also it's recent apps, not running apps. The right name will help you find info.
It's not a part of the launcher. It's just an Android 9 Pie recent apps menu redesign.

Other sources say the functionality was moved into the launcher. So a 3rd party launcher could help after disabling the stock launcher.

It's not a functionality of the Moto launcher per se. Maybe they moved it under launchers control in general? If so that's an odd decision and the first I've heard of such a thing in Android. Also I don't see any alternative option in Nova launcher, which I'm using , and which is usually up to date with this kind of stuff.

I don't have a pie device currently. Just some stuff I saw looking for info.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android-pie-recent-apps-customization/
There's a Magisk module (QuickSwitch) that can be used for changing which launcher handles the recents functionality.
