OOS 9.5.5 and Nova Launcher problems - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
I've update to latest 9.5.5 (GM1913) and since then I've got issue with Nova Launcher. When I try to move an icon to the dock on the bottom the icon jumps out immediately. Also, once you move an icon out of the dock you are unable to move it back there. Anyone else did run into this issue and if so how did you fix it?

Settings / Display / Resolution / change to HD+ or QHD+ but not Autoswitch

Does not make a difference, I have tested it both with beta and regular version when I tried to figure out what is going on after I updated to 9.5.5. If you are on autoswitch resolution you can take icons out of the dock but you cannot add them. As soon as you pick either FullHD or qHD it works again, exactly as Hirs_E_Fruit says.

Not having this issue at all, just tested. Resolution auto switching set to default, nova launcher beta, GM1915 here.

Same here. No problem on GM1913 @ OOS 9.5.5

Sorry, I was asking because I didn't seem to have any issues with this. Currently on beta and oss 9.5.5, gm1915

No need to apologize! Strange that not all devices are affected then... I have a gm1913.

i been nova user for past 5 years.
I might try out lawnchair everyone talks about

Nova launcher issue crops up as soon as custom DPI values are set in developer settings.
Although it definitely reverts back to normal after using FHD or qhd+.
Quite an annoying bug in OOS. I am so used to 470 DPI

ah, thank you folks. was driving me nuts too. In addition the MS Launcher had it's issues as well, simply loosing some icons in folders and on the home screen.

I also have this issue. I manage to place the icon in landscape mode:laugh::laugh:

I've just received a Nova Launcher beta update, which fixed the behaviour for me. Very strange that you and others seemingly got it much earlier than me...

Labels on Dock icons

Hi all,
Is it possible to display labels on dock icons?
I don't find the way to enable it on stock lancheur.
Cheers
Not possible ?
I don't think so.
If you don't find the icons easy to understand, you can change them with a new Theme

You can easily do that and more with Nova Launcher.

I saw it on the Porsche Design Mate 9, maybe they enabled it there because it doesn't use on screen keys, and they had to keep the aspect ratio of the main home screen similar.

Anyone else experiencing slight judder or lag?

Love the phone, but for a company to tout its performance I'd expect a buttery smooth experience. However, this is not the case. I occasionally experience a slight lag or judder while moving across screens, opening apps, opening folders, etc. I don't know if this is due to 7.0 nougat as I have heard some stories of its inefficiencies which is why its updated to 7.1 now, but I do hope that when it does get updated to 7.1 in Feb this will go away. Anyone else experiencing this?

I noticed a small lag when opening folders, so I downloaded the Google now launcher and the folder lag is gone. I also have my animations turned down to .5 seconds in developer settings.
Are you talking primarily Huawei launcher?
I personally use Nova or Google Launcher(when i can change dpi) without issue.
I was just thinking the other day, the phone is stupid smooth and figured I would have experience some type of lag. Only lag I encounter is with Chrome browser but Im the type with 99(smiley face) tabs running.

Yes, I was talking about the Huawei Launcher having a slight lag at times when opening folders. It's not bad and not consistent, but it does happen at times. The Google now launcher is butter.

I dont know if it would work but one of the first things I do is turn animations to .25/.5 under devolper options. Worth a shot if you want to stick with Huawei launcher.

Yeah I already did that too. It helps for sure. Another thing...In developer settings, right under the Window and Transition animation scale settings, there is a setting called "smallest width" that you can use to change the screen density. The higher the number, the smaller everything gets (opposite from changing the screen density in the build prop). Anyways, when I change this to my liking, the Huawei Launcher gets very choppy, but the Google now launcher is very smooth. So that's another reason to use the Google launcher or Nova.
The issue is the twin app do not work with 3rd party launchers....
I have massive scroll lag when using Google Play Games but that's it. Everything else namely the UI eye candy is buttery smooth.

I have absolutely no lag when scrolling in Google Play games.
The Mate 9 I had before this one did have lag, but I sent the it back due to GPS problems.

Thank you for reminding me of the smallest width option. Remember wanting to play with that when I got the phone but I forgot.
That needs its own thread.

I like to keep my display size on large and set the value in developer settings to 500. This keeps the navigation buttons bigger and more spread out. If I set the display to small and then adjust the value, my nav buttons get really small and very close together.
Keyboard seems to be non-responsive from time to time. I have noticed this accross multiple apps, inclusive of chrome. Have to back out and click the input area of the apps/browser for the keyboard to work again.

Now that you mention it, it happened to me as well although only once since I've owned the device (2 months).

First number I tried was 500. Will test when I get back home Monday.
Seriously someone create a thread . This is very valuable.
I don't need root now, and with the lower dpi Google now doesn't look disgusting.
Straight up blonde moment.
Changing the animation speeds in developer options makes a big difference along with the width settings.

New s8 aod working for s7 edge

Hi everyone. Today I saw on Sammobile new Always On Display APK and then I downloaded it and installed it. It works amazingly. I am on stock touchwiz with August security patch.

No. Everything is working perfectly fine.
Working flawlessly. SO BEAUTIFUL!!!
Music controls work ?
I'm lost some background effects (green leaf for exemple).
Thanks. Seems to be working fine with Nova launcher. I just wish there was a way to rotate the lock screen. I use it as my nightstand clock.
Like this every AOD was working for me, music controls didn't work with this one too. No difference
All other apk from sammobile.com/apk mostly work too like the latest touchwiz launcher.
Could someone upload the apk to googld drive or smth? I can't seem to download anything from the sight
Confirmed. Downloaded and it's working for me too.
It disables the night clock for me

It's there, just moved places actually. Even easier to activate honestly, just tap the AOD quick toggle title.
Kills my Night clock, too. Useless.

App drawer sizes NOVA LAUNCHER

I’m having two problems for drawer app sizes
1. I’ve set to 5x5 landscape but it keeps defaulting to portrait
2. Having set to 5x5 only one of my app drawers is actually 5x5 others are 3 or 4 icons wide even though there are more than 5 apps in the drawer.
I want everything to be the same how do I get them all to 5x5??
I'm using nova launcher settings to do this
Thanks

Maybe Nova just doesn't like your Nokia, try sending an email to developers. In Nova settings, scroll down to "Contact Support" and let them know your issue.

op6 beta 6 new gesture aminations

New gesture aminations its feels phone is slow like syrup. I hope it can be turned off soon
Even worse if you use rootless luncher
Works quite well for me. The animation is just as fast, its just different, some people will like it, some wont. But personally, i think, with a little tweaking in further updates, the animation will look very good. They're trying to mimics the iphone app closing animation i think.
No prob here... Using stock launcher really smooth animations... updated from stable...
I'm fine with the animations except the super slow (maybe twice as slow?) home gesture animation... Any idea how to disable or change it? I know I can turn off animations under accessibility options... But I just want the home swipe to be immediate not change everything else.

On third party launchers its bugged as hell. Phone feels cheap and laggy
Is there a way to have the old ones? These are longer and more similar to the iOS ones, what a useless change...

Oh it does, if you install OnePlus launcher 2.5 you will get oreo recents... If you uninstall completely OnePlus launcher you will lose your multitasking screen lol
When i was on ob5 i installed the new OnePlus launcher and i got the new gesture, so yes, it may work
I use nova and it's bugged as hell, OnePlus made a mistake if they trying to force us to use their launcher

Problem solved changing "animation time" in développer options. I've set it to 0.5, but you can put it off too.
(I'm French so I'm not sure if "animation time" is the exact terms

I just hope Nova somehow implements proper animations for this. Or maybe someone will make a Magisk mod or something.

You could also freeze the OnePlus Launcher if your using a different one. That will give you the Oreo recents.

This worked before the new gesture is implemented. Now if you freeze the OP Launcher, the Oreo recents will only show when you use navigation bar. The gesture will do nothing when you try to swipe "home"..
