I don't have the google feed, just some Smart Assistant thing?

Please post a screenshot of this option in launcher setting. Thanks

I also have Google feed enabled and didn't found any option in launcher settings to change or disable it.

I would like to know how to turn this on as I also just have some smart assistant thing when I swipe across.
I've changed to Action Pixel launcher to get the Google feed enabled but I feel that none of the launchers i've tried so far are as smooth or responsive as the stock ColorOS launcher.

But are you sure that you have the stock coloros launcher? Check it.

Yes, i'm sure. But I think it may depend on the operator's branding. My phone is branded for Vodafone, perhaps Oppo does some things on their request.

Can you pleas show us the feed?

In this whole thread is just one Picture. One of a home screen with a Google searchbar.
No Google feed so far.

This is an animated gif, not a picture. If you can't see animation, try to change your browser.

Very curious to find out if installing the launcher version from devices with Google Feed will enable it on devices without Google Feed. Can someone with one of these regional/branded devices check the version number of their launcher?
On certain Huawei phones it was possible to enable the feed by ADB disabling HiBoard. Unfortunately disabling Oppo's feed with ADB does not enable the Google Feed.

The version number is visible in the screenshot in the attachment.

..i have color os version 7.2 (11_A.30) and google feed is only available as a choice (option) in smart assistant settings, simply swiping from left to right opens assistant and you have to choose ( predefined ) from settings ( icon on the top right hand side )

Having the same trouble. Clueless here. Anyone had the same issue and fixed it? Oppo A72 here on Android 10 coloros 7.1

Switched off the Google news feed but when I swipe from left to right, I still have Google but its blank.. anyway.of changing it to another app or switching it off completely?

Hi,
I found a way to "disable" the Google feed without installing another launcher.
If you hide the Google App in the Privacy Settings, when you swipe left, nothing happens. The icon at the bottom which indicates how many pages there are is still visible but honestly it doesn't bother me much.
Hopefully, Oppo will add the option to hide the Google Feed page.
Cheers

Swipe left for Google Now

I tried searching for this and didn't find it, and I'm really curious about it.
Is it possible for the swipe left to google now (which looks incredibly smooth in the KitKat videos) to be implemented into launchers such as nova and apex? Or is that going to be a stock launcher only thing?
Just to clarify, I'm asking if a future version of Nova/apex will be able to copycat this design, not just implement another gesture that opens the google now app. The beauty of these launchers now is that they appear very similar to aosp, but they have many more features. Will that no longer be possible after this change?
Nova (paid) already has gestures that you can set to launch any app. There are 9 gestures although swipe left isn't one of them - not that it matters

Right, I guess that is one option, but it is more jarring to switch to a totally different app than the swipe gesture that it looks like KItKat has. That seem so fluid, almost like it's just another home screen.

From what I was reading, I believe that in 4.4 it actually IS another screen. I mean it's not just that the app is hidden in the background and uncovered by a gesture, it is an option to have google now to take up a page in the layout.

Nova right now cant do anything like the google launcher for kk. When you swipe right there is an actual google now home page.

It sure is first you've got too activate Google now its in the Google search settings somewhere

i really hope that nova will implement this and all the other cool stuff from the new kk launcher... something like a more customizable stock launcher
The google launcher is basically an extension of the Google search app. Kind of like Facebook home. I doubt nova will be able to integrate this unless the build it themselves into nova. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013...e-kitkats-primary-interface-is-google-search/

I suppose an app like GMD gestures could help you achieve the same effect

I think it would be cool if you can swipe left to any app of your choice, even if the app has to go on pause.

Remove what? The launcher? You can just install Apex launcher and use that instead if you wanted. If you really wanted to remove it you will need to uninstall it through titanium backup, but I wouldn't recommend that.

Lock Screen Wallpaper

Anyone figure this one out yet? I have been scratching my head trying to be able to change mine. I followed some guys instructions on Reddit, but that didn't work for me. Wondering if anyone else had figured it out.

Here's how to change it:
Long press on an empty area of the home screen
At the bottom, choose "Lockscreen Wallpaper"
Make your selection
Hit "Set For LockScreen Wallpaper"

The lockscreen wallpaper is kind of annoying, but the persistent "This device is HD capable" notification is driving me out of my mind.

Unfortunately, I didn't (well, at least not for what you're seeing in that screenshot). If you visit plus.google.com in Chrome, it offers to put a link to the site on your home screen. So, that icon just opens the web version of Google+. I did install Google+ earlier today, but because I had to sign it myself to remove the conflicting permissions (it conflicts with the improperly built Gallery app), Google's servers rejected the client. IMO, the only chances we have of getting a working Google+ installed are 1) if the phone is rooted, then we should be able to replace the Gallery app with a non-broken one, or 2) Lenovo needs to fix it. Option 2 might happen by accident if they ever decide to release Android 7.
Looks like you can only change the lock screen wallpaper to a static picture, no live wallpapers unfortunately. On other phones you can.
Also, I can install and use Google+ just fine it seems, perhaps because I installed their latest December update.

My stock launcher somehow become corrupted, every second, I get "Unfortuantely Launcher has stopped working". It was a ***** to get to the Google Play store between saying, "ok" and having the message pop again in 1 second. So I was able to get into Play store and install another Launcher that is near the original Launcher_3. However, it does not have that LockScreen Walpaper mode.
I don't know how to fix and reinstate the original launcher. Even after trashing and reinstalling it, it still doesn't work.
Any insight?

Search device app

Hi,
The Emui has an cool new feature, by swiping down on the main page you open a device-search option(app?). Does anybody know the name of this app so I could trigger it with another launcher like Nova? It is like the SFinder on Samsung, does it have options ton configure what you want to search?
Do you mean the 'HiBoard'?
Tap and hold on home screen, click 'More settings' button. You can enable or disable the HiBoard.
It does have a setting button on right upper corner.

No I mean this Feature on EMUI 5.0 when you swipe down on any screen and it shows a search field on top and you can search for Apps, Contacts, Messages etc.

Is this feature working for you, using the emui launcher?
I can't get it working. Is there any option to activate it?
That feature only works if you have selected standard in settings-home screen style.

In Germany we have no HiBoard Option. But i think, what he mean is the searchbar when you swipe down on the homescreen. @soky001, Can you share a screenvideo of this option?
Gesendet von meinem MHA-L29 mit Tapatalk
Yes thats exactly what I mean, on Standard Launcher ( not the Drawer-Variant ) just swipe down anywhere on screen and you get a searchbox where you can type what you want to search and then get e.g. Contacts suggested.
Sorry guys that I cant post a video of this, thats because I am new to this forum and just don't know how to do this..
HIBOARD is awesome only thing it lacks now is daily events and schedules option also

Hi soky001,
The device-search option you are talking about is unfortunately not an app. It is already a built-in feature in the Huawei Home launcher and is not going to be triggered in any other launcher apps unless you edit it with that feature. It also don't have any options or settings on your 2nd question. Hope I helped.
I found it
its called global search
Global search
About global search Use global search to find apps, contacts, and messages on your phone.Swipe down on a blank part of the home screen to open the global search window and then enter your search terms
If its hard to get
Just make a new blank page and swipe down to get the search bar

It is an old feature, since emui 4 i think.
I had it on my mate 7
Turn off scroll down search function in emui
Lol i actually wana turn this feature off. Any suggestions on how to do this without using another launcher. Got my first huawei (mate 10 pro) and while I'm liking emui this scroll down is getting annoying as I mistakingly activate it when I'm trying to check notifcations

Seriously, its really annoying. There is no workaround for it. Only option is to set the homescreen style to standard instead of drawer. Sad.
It's necroposting day today, kids. It's the hivision app you speak of
It's HiSearch on Mate 9, EMUI 9.0.1
If you don't have root, use ADB from PC (search on XDA for Minimal ADB and Fastboot thread with installation) and use the command:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.search
f you ever want to re-enable back, use:
Code:
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.huawei.search
Edit:
If you disable instead of 'uninstalling':
Code:
adb shell pm disable-user com.huawei.search
then you can re-enable if needed from Settings/Apps: Disabled & Show system proccesses

Got the APK and it installs and works fine on Huawei.
Thanks for the launcher!
It's smooth, it's light. If there is per icon customization (gesture and icon change) and grid size over 10+ then it will be my goer.
Does thisone work for multi screen phones like the LG G8x ?
Is there a option to remove or customize the search bar under dock?
Please disregard.

Sure take your time.
I also wish the grid setting could be independent of each other: the home page, the dock, and the drawer.
Then the 10+ column on homepage would not mess up the search bar (which is in the dock).

Question How can I remove this from home Screen?

It is not possible without root or another launcher.

Lawnchair or nova your best bet
I used Niagara for a couple of days and paid for the full version this morning. Love the 'empty' screen!

Are you using a Pixel 7?
Your best bet for fixing the flashlight issue is to probably install a Pixel Launcher, stock or modded and customize your At A Glance settings. As for the lock screen weather, not so sure you can turn that one off.

It was the same on my 4XL. It's nuts that they put that on the homescreen. Every morning when I turn the phone on, I have to swipe left to get to the homescreen I want to use. I don't want to root, or change the launcher. Back in the day, I was able to choose the homescreen page I wanted.
