Galaxy S5 :: Nova Launcher And Unread Counts With Default Samsung Apps
Jan 22, 2015
I have been using Nova Launcher on my s5 and really like it. Before I get Nova Prime I was wondering if the unread counts will work using the teslaunread plugin with the Samsung email and Samsung SMS app.
Why does the gmail app icon always show 99+ and the email icon always shows 30 emails even after I clean up my mailboxes and know for sure that I have 0 unread emails? Is there a fix for this? When I was on ios as soon as I had all emails read the counts from the app icons used to disappear.
I have an HTC One from AT&T, and I just began using Nova Launcher. How can I delete some of the stock apps like FM Radio, Stocks, AT&T apps, etc with Nova Launcher? I've gone into the App menu under settings and disabled a few, but some don't have that option. Is there any easy way to get rid of these unwanted apps?
I downloaded nova launcher from the play store and I didn't like it i can use the default launcher but it wont let me delete the nova launcher app...
When trying to delete it from play store it says: this app is devuce manager app and it has to be stopped before uninstalling (not 1 for 1 because of translation from hebrew)...
Using Nova Launcher rebooting at night while charging and also changing the wallpaper too?
It has happened two night in a row.
Just trying to figure out what's causing the change of wallpaper while charging at night. Can't figure out what's the cause...just thought Nova was the cause as I googled and saw that Nova has done it before
Nova Launcher will not show widgets in the current iteration. It gives this long winded explanation on how to show widgets. But when I follow it, you can't check the widgets you want.
I just got a galaxy s5, wanted to customize the screens and icons a bit more, read about nova launcher and downloaded. Am very happy with the screens and icons, etc. but ever since I did that I can't use google maps gps. What I try to put in an address to ask for directions it says "turn by turn navigation is only available in these location modes: high accuracy (or) device only" Then you have the option of hitting ignore, which means you still don't get directions, or settings, which takes you to the location section of settings. Location is set to on, but I can't see any place where "high accuracy" is an option and don't remember this ever being an issue with my S3 - which is why I think this is related to the Nova Launcher?how to fix it. I'll uninstall the launcher if I have to but wondering if there is an alternative.
For some reason my counter option in nova settings keeps turning itself off! It'll work fine for a day or 2 then just stop. Open up settings and it's been switched off.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5. Its not rooted. But I am running Nova Launcher as my default launcher. It causes my lock screen to kinda glitch out. The letters and numbers on the pin lock screen are turning into solid white blocks. I know if I restart my phone, it fixes it. But I'm just curious as to what causes it.
Over the weekend I decided to take a shot with Nova Launcher Prime on my LG G4. One of the things I'd like to do is have a different wallpaper on each of my screens. I've tried using Five Wallpapers, Multi Picture Live and Go Multiple Wallpaper.
I finally got my phone set up the way I wanted it using nova launcher and some icon themes. The first thing I tested was the tap to wake/sleep as I was disappointed to find out doesn't work.
I'd be willing to get a different launcher if it works with the tap feature but my first choice is to get it working with nova.
Ok I have been trying to figure this one out for a few days. I installed Nova launcher and for some reason I cant seem to find the stock messaging app in Nova. It's there in the stock launcher but nowhere to be found in Nova.
My s6 keeps periodically prompting me to choose a default launcher. Phone worked fine yesterday and now today all of a sudden it can't remember what launcher I set as a preference. Periodically when I press the home button I am asked to choose between the normal touchwhiz launcher and the touchwhiz easy launcher. It is pretty annoying. I have no 3rd party launchersupplies installed I just don't understand.
Whenever I set a wallpaper on my Moto X while using Nova the buttons are in a black bar and it looks like they aren't "on screen." But setting a wallpaper while on the Google Now launcher resolves this problem. It's kind of annoying to have to switch launchers just to change a wallpaper.
I happened to look at the memory section in settings (6.0.1) and noticed my Nexus 6P (not rooted) using an average of 2.3GB RAM within the last 3 hours - 650MB of which was Android OS and Nova closely behind at 350MB - not exactly lightweight. I haven't noticed any issues performance wise (so what's the problem you might be thinking) but my Nexus 6 never used that much for Nova. In fact, with a similar setup I have on the Nexus 6P, I would sit around 1.5GB on the Nexus 6.
I will reinstall and test again but 350MB seems to be a lot in my opinion (which isn't a technical one)...
Having issue where nova launcher "crashes" becomes inactive when coming out of sleep or clicking on the home button? I have had it since upgrading to lollipop. I have the PE version and I just got moto yo send me a code for a new phone but they are showing my walnut backed version as "unavailable" so I'm not too excited about my options.
I've been emailing with teslacoil about this issue but they can't seem to reproduce... I've done a recovery and cleared partition but haven't reset since post lollipop upgrade.
I decided this morning to root my phone and am now realizing that Nova Launcher apparantly doesn't allow you to choose the location of your backup file if you want to restore it..I keep reading that the default location where the backup file needs to be is on an SD card, how could Nova have overlooked this for Nexus 5 owner's?
Role of people using nova launcher on the Nexus 6 phones, do you just your controls and settings menu on Nova Launcher at all? If you do, what kind of district controls do you use? For example, I'm trying to set up the camera icon in my launcher if I swipe up on the camera icon to automatically launch the video camera but I can't seem to get it to work at all.
I haven't seen this addressed anywhere and I may be the only one having this issue. I downloaded the Google now launcher for my S6 today. It seems to be installed properly and I see the shortcut for it. If I go into settings and try to set it for the default launcher it's nowhere to be found. I see TouchWiz, action launcher, and Nova but no Google Now.
I upgraded OTA to Lollipop last night. (Sprint S5). No matter what I do, after a few minutes, the phone asks me what launcher to use. I've gone into the settings umpteen times, gone to Home, chose the launcher, clicked the Home key, and it sticks... for a few minutes.I'm THISCLOSE to reverting back to KitKat.
Is there a way to get the Widget selection to read correctly (the text appears to be white on a white background)? I know there is a way to do this using methods not supported by these forums but I would like to avoid that if could.
I switched over to Nova today, how to uninstall apps on it? I tried doing the usual thing of dragging the apps to delete like on TW but it just took them to the home menu.
I go to my settings and the go to my app manger scroll down find go launcher app click on it. Then I try to uninstall. Doesn't do any thing so I went to different app look at the unistall its lit up and when I'm on the go launcher app it is not so tgere for I am stuck with this app that im not happy with because I am not able to use Google...
is it possible to create folders in the app drawer of Launcher pro? Also, is it possible to create folders within folders (on homescreen or app drawer)
