Nexus 5 Experience Launcher Simplified - Droid Ultra General

With the Google search updates the experience launcher from the nexus 5 works without crashes anymore on all devices 4.1+ . Enjoy.
1) install these 2 files.

2) press home and set as "always"
3) (optional) disable stock launcher and reboot to clear the stock launcher out of memory.
4) Profit.

How do the new step-by-step Google Now voice commands work with touchless control?

They're unaffected

Yup. That's been that way for all 3rd party launchers on the last couple generations of Moto device. Chronus makes a good substitute. It's the one from cyanogen and can be downloaded free on the play store.

Just grab an icon as if you were going to throw it onto to the next page (that doesn't yet exist). Video here if you need: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIAXMfOD7aI

Did you change your dpi or put it into actual tablet mode? If so, you need either the modified play store apk or to change your dpi back to stock.

That app are compatible with my nexus 7, like the above comment said check your ppi setting.
Since the latest version of play store changes how it detect device model.

it looks like its an ICON/theme so you need to have nova or another third party launcher in order for it to work and to be chosen

Question.
HDX 8.9 with 14.3.2.3.2. Rooted w/ Towelroot and have SuperSU installed. The HDXPosed module is installed and activated. Installed GPlay w/ KindleFree (wouldn't work with other methods and I'm sure I followed the instructions down to a T). Installed latest versions of Apex and Nova launcher. With Apex, I can only get the default wallpaper to show up; with Nova, can't use any wallpapers. Attempting to use any Live Wallpaper will lead to the "Live Wallpaper Picker has stopped" error. Attempting to use a wallpaper of my own by navigating to it via ES FIle Explorer leads to my selecting it successfully, but there's no change to the background.
Is this because I accidentally let the device update to 14.3.2.3.2? Seems like almost everyone else was able to change their wallpapers to their heart's content.
Edit: Saw a thread in the Android Dev forums, and one person recommended the "Image 2 Wallpaper" app. It worked beautifully. Still not sure why normal launchers can't change the wallpaper, though.

Google notifications

I was wondering if anyone can help me with this. Every once in a while I get a pop up notification from Google. Opening it, it directs me to Google settings. Is it telling me I need to change something? I didn't think so. Everything seems to be working fine. More annoyingly, I can't swipe it away. It seems the only way to get rid of it is to reboot the phone. Can anyone enlighten me as to what's going on here?
Thanks very much for any help & here is screen shot of what I'm talking about.

See this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3366469 It seems to be something to do with Nova launcher.

Thanks very much for that. Narrowing it down to something to do with Nova launcher is a start at least. I'll research further. It's still very annoying though!

Hmm I occasionally get this pop up when I say ok Google from the lock screen with ok Google always on enabled. It appears for a couple of seconds then goes away, I thought it was to say Google now is recording audio?

Anybody received the customizable Google Search widget update?

Hello
I was looking for the customizable Google Search widget update when I first heard the news about it.
I have realized that I am now using much more recent version of the same. .
But I still could not get the overflow menu in the widget to customize it.
Did anyone got luck with that?
I am in the Google app beta and have it

I am not in the beta channel but having even more recent build of the same.
I didn't get any overflow menu to customize it.
Are you using stock launcher ?

Am i using incompatible version ?
I am not getting the overflow menu.
It seems to be tied to the main account on a phone. I just set up my partner's new S8 and the custom option appeared. Not on my S8 or G6. I don't think it's phone specific, but rather tied to an account that has it activated. Very frustrating.
