[Q] Google Now Launcher Widgets Gone - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Just updated to 4.4.2 on my Note 3 and downloaded the Google Now Launcher.
My Action Memo, S Note, etc widgets don't show up in this launcher. Is that normal? Is there a way to fix this?
I'm running stock
Thanks!

Same problem here... by the looks of thinks noone even cares enough to even reply.

[Q] Touchwiz features on Google Edition ROM

Hi all,
I really want to use the Google Edition ROM on my i9505 - but a couple of things keep me on the bloaty Touchwiz ROM.
1) Touchwiz Camera
2) Touchwiz Video Player
There are other things, but if these 2 were working on Google Edition I would be there in a flash.
Does anyone know if these are working?
The other alternative is to get Google Now 'OK Google' working with my Nova Launcher .... but looks quite far off.
I recently updated to the S5 video player and that works perfectly on the S4.
Any help appreciated.
Many thanks.
I was in the same boat, would like a rom like cyanogenmod but I was to use features like gestures, air view etc and the camera app is way better than the stock app.
Anyway I installed Omega rom which is the same as the s4 stock rom with touchwiz but lets you deselect all the bloatware before installing, so I've got all the samsung features but without the crap. Also downloaded the google launcher which is nice
Thanks a lot. I've used the Omega ROM a while ago, but didn't think about it for this.
Does the Google Launchers allow you to change the grid layout on the home screen? I want 5 columns and 6 rows if possible.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You could use Nova, looks like the Google launcher but way more customisable (you can change the columns/rows), dont think there google now integration on the home screen though.
Another couple of options are to try the AOSP themed touchwiz roms. You can keep all the touch wiz features and have the vanilla android look. Or you can also dual boot a touchwiz rom and CM11 to get the best of both worlds.
Thanks.
I'm already using Nova ... even paid for the extras. What I really want is Touchwiz with the 'always on' OK Google command.

Launcher Question

Hey Gang! So I just flashed AOSP Lollipop (LiquidSmooth) and love it.
Wondering if there's any launcher that has the big icon look of the Google Now launcher WITHOUT Google Now on the left of the home screen. Is there a way to turn that off on the stock launcher?
It becomes such a battery hog if I'm constantly checking it without even realizing.

Anybody else getting lag using the Google Now 4x4 Widget?

Was there an update or something? Because all of a sudden the widget completely destroys my battery and FPS when scrolling on the Google Now Launcher. I got rid of it and now everything works fine. Im on stock no root and have factory reset like 5 times until i figured out it was the widget.
Edit* To replicate, try using the G Now 4x4 widget using the Gnow Launcher and try scrolling on the launcher.
Yes - I'm having the same sort of problem on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 following an update yesterday (25th Feb). If I have the 4x4 widget installed in Nova Launcher, then it crashes and lags like crazy. If I remove the widget, then it's all fine.
Will just have to hope that Google become aware of the problem, and fix it quickly.
Cheers,
Steve.
Same problems here. Nexus 6P with Nova launcher too. I had to uninstall updates to the Google app, then update to a version from a few days ago (5.9.33.19), and now all is good again (including widget). Hope an update fixes the issues soon.
Im gonna guess that this only effects people who are beta testing the Google app.
Actually I was getting some lag I thought was from Nova Launcher. Also the C-SPAN App was stuttering if it was not in the foreground. I deleted the widget and everything is back to normal.
i think i was getting the same problem too. phone was laggy and also google now was draining my battery big time
