I have been using this for several weeks on 10 and I think it works great. It is a little confusing on the setup, but not too bad.

How you finding the battery drain? I've heard some say it's fine and others say that it's a hog.

No battery drain at all! Now if you left your phone with the edge lighting going for a "long" time....not sure. But as it is I have no battery drain at all from this app.

Good stuff. Does Google assistant work when you say "ok google"? It's a problem with a lot of apks like NotifyBuddy etc, so looking for an alternative.

Sorry but I don't ever talk to my phone...seems silly to me... unless I am driving and "need" to reply to a text, then Textra with Gboard does it for me.

Fair enough. I find it extremely handy when on the go.

Edit: Resolved - For over 10 years, I have been using the BACK button to close activities. All of them. When I want to return to the launcher, I just press BACK from withing the given app until I get 'back' to the launcher. Why wouldn't I do this? It's how you close an app. Well, I hit the HOME button instead of using BACK to exit the app gracefully like I do for all other apps I run.. and.. AOE works. I don't get it. I'm not much of an Android developer, and I hate everything Google has done to Android in the last 5 years, but what gives here? I assume (and I can see) that the backgroud service still runs after the activity closes, so why would I want to leave the activity open and return to the launcher without gracefully closing the current activity? Anyway.. if I leave the activity open, it seems to work as expected, but not if I close the activity. Go figure.

I am using Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 on OnePlus 7 Pro. I've tried Plus Beat, True Edge, and now Always On Edge. I can't get any of them to work. Plus Beat came the closest by repeatedly flashing the lock screen, but I really want to use AOE and I would like to see the edge 'horizon' lights. I've given AOE every permission and accessibility service I know how to, and it still does not work.
Is it possible to use AOE on One Plus 7 Pro with Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 (Android Q10 based, and goes on top of OOS 10.3.8)?

[Q] Google Now Launcher APK?

Perhaps a noob question but I figured I might as well ask before trying it and messing something up.
Is there a Google Now Launcher APK that's been confirmed to work on the G3? all the APKs I find are in articles and links from months ago and I just want to have the most recent information and APK(s) available.
Loving the G3 just would like Google Now Launcher and preferably the n5 dialer/camera apps. If all this is located somewhere and I'm just being an idiot, please point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
andrej
Google camera is in the play store, the others should be findable, I'll check when I get home for you

Yes! Thanks to both of you
I tried the Google Camera but not surprisingly the LG app takes much better photos. Now if I could just get the Dialer to look less hideous
...I just need a GPE ROM already
Thanks again!
andrej
I assume it is working ok? Love the device, and I'm going to try to time with the stock launcher for at least a couple of days, but probably going to this launcher soon.
Thanks.

Works fine so far here. I'm curious about if there will be a difference in battery usage/wakelocks

I'd recommend Swipe Dialer. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mb.swipedial.donate
It can look almost stock Android.

Can you use Knock Code with the Google Now launcher? Only had it for a few days, but really like that feature.

Thanks for posting the suggestion. I'm using nova and thought I lost knock off completely. Still works in the notification area though.
No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.
Just a note...Smart Launcher 2 let's you use knock off (on any phone).

Bixby Voice update

Has anyone else gotten it and tried it out?
It's actually pretty great. It's a lot more conversational style than Google assistant. I've used it quite a few times to send texts etc and it dictates very well!!
Haven't tested out the voice unlock, I use fingerprint too much...
Did mine too, been playing with it the past couple hours... Not sure if I'll keep using it, but I'll give it a week and see? I like Google Assistant better, so far, but I like being able to turn on bluetooth and wifi with just saying. But, Bixby won't use my 3rd party music player, email, or SMS (text) app....So, that's useless for me.
Like I said, I'll give it a week and see?? It also depends on the battery usage too.
Oh yeah, didn't think about 3rd party stuff. That sucks.
I like the rewards points for doing stuff with it. Now they're giving points as Samsung pay points

[Question] Always on display support?

As per topic..
anyone knows or have a single bit of idea is native always on display is ever gonna come for this device ?
7T does not have it as well. So my guess: nope.
Which is really amazing/pitiful imho
I wouldn't hold your breath...
very bumped ...
no AOD no notification lights ...
at least what they can do is make the ring pulsate in shorter intervals..
how can anyone know if there is any missed calls or msgs if the phone is not picked up.
remembered they mentioned it was coming.. in May ? June? ...

I use an app called always on amoled it can uses a bit of battery though but it's the closest I've found to something similar to what Samsung has.

Oh really? That's strange mine is fine. I have the T-Mobile variant btw.
Pixel pulse was my go to alternative for AOD notifications but since it doesn't support 10 yet I just have to deal with missed notifications. First one plus device and probably my last. They make great devices if you SETTLE for less than what mid-range phones offer. I wish I had a Instagram and Twitter I'd call it the CEO. Tell him give us AOD if it takes up battery life that's our choice. It's ignorant honestly. Live and learn I guess. Back to LG or Samsung sadly next time I upgrade. 2 years probably

Use NotifyBuddy apk. You won't have google assistant via "ok google" but it's an option for now

i've d/led and unlocked it.
while it is nice with customisations and does the job.
it drains quite a lot of batt indeed..
and .. the device remains warm to the touch with it running..

Could be one of the adaptive battery settings; known troublemakers. This feature though has eluded me for over a year on the 10+ And not a clue why even after spending a bunch of time playing with it

I tried that apk on the 10+ running on Pie, no joy and that apk itself was a real bloody pain.... grrrrr.
For whatever reason(s) edge lighting has never worked. I could try playing with it again... last couple times were a waste of time.
Probably a apk conflict or settings issue but I never found it... meh.
OP, Thanks for reminding me of this gremlin
Hope you find a solution here as it may backwards applicable.

Lol, that's reassuring. A long history of fail.
I just looked over my settings and it should be active.
Damned if I see it anymore (it works for a couple days once, long, long ago).
I reset it to factory load, the only possible option left; no power management is active.
I'll double check my blocked apks just for amusement.
Guess I'll wait and see if this takes:laugh:

That function has always been a major fail. So much so that I have it off ( phone wise ) .
Opposite of the OOS 11 , the horizon light works everytime for notifications

Bah-ha-ha-ha... it never uses any battery (yes, well) so I completely forgot it was enabled.
Guess it could be one of the mystery apks under Android Services sucking battery though.
Thanks for reminding to pull it's plug!

Zippo raid it be for sure.
I have something like 86 blocked apks now. All but 6 or so of those are never needed. Lol, less run time, less trouble.
Sometimes with new apps I'll block them until I sort them out or throw them out.

Annoying Home app refresh

Hey there, first time posting here.
Recently bought this phone, great piece of tech ( the only smartphone under 6.5" worthy of spending money on)
At the beginning the battery was performing poorly, but after the latest July update it has been quite a pleasurable surprise to get great battery life and not having to charge the phone every day. Everything alright till now, untill the phone occasionally started to freeze straight after unlocking it without the possibility to interact with, unless I would lock\unlock it again (really annoying especially when in a hurry).
But the most frustrating (for some weird reason) is the Home app refresh. I'm currently using Nova launcher Prime, and if I return home, it randomly refreshes the launcher looking like there's a memory management issue. Feels like having a really old android phone...
Anyone else having the same problems?
Any fix? (Please don't tell me to switch to the super boring stock launcher).
Thanks for the attention.
