Thank you

Thank you @Mano_60, you made my day !
PS: For some reason I can't get it to stick , it gets replaced after some time by the OS one. I allowed all the asked permissions and more...
Any ideas?

Did you give it autostrart and all those (frustrating) permission ?

Yes I changed back using the default one, mainly because this is not a system wide replacement.
You can configure Nova on slide down to open this

I does not appear in my autostart application list.
I gave all the permissions I could find, it seems that it has something to do with the accessibility permission that goes off from time to time.

been a while, but i think you go to the home screen, hit menu, edit
it should zoom out and show previews of the windows with an "X" icon on the upper corner. form there you should be able to delete and add screens.
You're a god..... thx

Replacing Icons ?

Hello all,
I am running Check Rom V6 right now. I have 5 icons, dialer, contacts, messaging, home, and apps. I was wondering if someone could guide me on how to use these icons. They are all in a .png format. Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

What launcher are you using? Most allow you to replace icons with ones of your choosing, you'll just have to put them on your sdcard.
If you're wanting to theme icons at the system level, or your launcher doesn't allow you to select a custom icon, then you'll have to modify apks.

Send me the icons and I'll make a flashable .zip for you that will change them, hassle free ( plus a recovery one so you can revert them if you don't like them ).
It's 2 minutes of work
Edit : I figure you want to change them while using Touchwiz, because replacement launchers do it easily anyway
Thank You Sir!!!!
I have uploaded the contacts messaing apps and all icons i dont need the dialer as it is stock look in the newest 2.3.6 builds

Edit : K, it's done

CWM -> Install update from sdcard ( don't worry about "enter the Vertumus world" text, I just edited Vert's zip a bit )
tested on my phone and works like a charm
Now I just need to wait till my CheckROM v6 finishes downloading so I can make a restore zip for you.
I'm not sure what the default icons are in new version and I need it anyway
Check this post later on. Post a screenshot when you flash it
Sir dont worry about the the restore packages i have a backup. I will post a screen shot thank you soo much though

Not strictly true - although it is an app drawer replacement.
Can change icons and names with this, my favourite ever app ever of all time ever.
As I've posted before, if there's an easier way to edit icons/text and retain functionality, I have yet to find it.
Especially because I couldn't modify an apk if my life was at stake...

Actually, the easiest way is using vrtheme, no need to modify apks or use anything else than the Touchwiz launcher itself

Thanks, I'll take your word for it. But I don't use TW launcher, and the app I refer to gives me a list view - a dealbreaker for me, was looking for a listview forever and a day, and I'll never go back

Mate are you serious ?
You have the list view in touchwiz too
Open appdrawer -> options button ( the one to the left of the home button ) -> List View...

Not joking, sorry. Haven't used nor installed TW launcher for about 7 months.
Live and learn - glad to be corrected, and not worried about my ignorance being on public display. Can hardly backtrack now can I?
Can you edit icons and app names there too?

Nah, Touchwiz basically sucks for everything I checked out that alternate app drawer app, it looks cool, pretty customizable I'm sure MIUI users adore it XD

Borderlight Live Wallpaper for Poco F1?

Borderline live wallpaper seems very nice.
Wonder if poco f1 will have such thing?
Even though it's really meant for amoled screens, tried it on my Poco F1 anyways. Looks nice. Have to play a little with settings to get the corners and notch right. Go for it. ?
Copy this and import using app.

Pretty nice and very simple to setup. Just open the notch settings and play with the slider till u r happy with the result. Same for top and bottom round corners
Thanks to the developer for adapting this to all notch phones.

Ya, it is simple. I have tried and it works very nice. Only two problems encountered.
1. Not working for Lockscreen
2. I can't keep borderline going on. Even I add it to the whitelist for my cleaner app. Oncw click clean, it crashed.

Changing icons and grid size

Hi All,
I'm new to this forum. Currently using pixel 3 on nova and don't plan to root. I really like the UI on stock pixel three but three things are driving me nuts.
No notification numbers
Cant use icon packs
Unable to change grid size
That huge bat that comes with new navigation gestures (I do like the idea though)
Question is, are there any lightweight launchers that can do all that? Plus if possible still have new pixel gestures but with a transparent navigation bar? I'm currently using nova, although I like it, I would want something that closely mimics the pixel 3 UI. Anything a out there that does all that. Thanks for the help!
Dav
Check this forum for TulsaDiver's P3 launcher mod script. I've not wanted to move away from the stock launcher but couldn't stand the search bar, grid size and icon labels. He put in a ton of work and built an ADB based solution.
Edit: Just saw that you said you don't want to root. This sort of thing is why you root.
What about Lawnchair v2? I've been using it since the day I got my P3, and I think it does all the things you mentioned.

Lawnchair v2 does, too, if you mean the swipe up from the bottom of the screen behavior, and the hold down/move the home "pill" back and forth behavior.

What I mean is when you open multitask (sliding up from bottom) with default launcher you get some quick access to most used apps and also multitask (that 2 things at same time), also the sliding option is integrated, so if you slide half way it opens multitask with quick acces, and if you slide up until the end, it open the app box.
I didnt find any way to replicate that.
Well, no third party launcher can do what you want... yet.
If you want to keep the stock launcher and change icons, root is the way to go, sadly.

UI questions

Hi, I'm bought this phone recently and my previous one was a galaxy S5.
So when I moved to poco f1 a lot of features were missing so I have several problems:
1. I noticed that I can't see notifications (like whatsapp) in the notifications bar AND in the lock screen.
2. I can't open new folder in the launcher (only in the home screen).
3. notch disable.
Can I fix these problems somehow? (New rom?something else?)
please help me! I'm getting frustrated with this phone and I just bought it...
Thank you!

Yes for 1 and 3
Dont know for 2 but you get a laucher that alows that if the default one doesnt (I am on Pixel Experience so I can not check it)
Yeah Lineage OS fixes all the issues. You get notifications on the lockscreen and you get the icon for the first notification, after a 2nd notification comes in, it will change to a dot to show that you have multiple notifications. You can disable the notch by going to developer options and look for 'Simulate a display with a cutout' and select 'Hide'. I dont use the launcher that comes with it, I always install Nova Launcher, I've been using that launcher on all my phones for years. The free version is still very good, no need to buy the premium version. The included launcher with Lineage can probably handle folders normally, ive just never used it long enough to know if it does.
