Anyone tried to use the Google enhanced launcher? From N5? - Asus Transformer TF701

I have a nexus 5, and love the newer KK launcher. I have my tf701 ordered and shipped but not delivered yet. Just wondering if anybody tried using the launcher?

Looks like it works with other tablets and phones too. It adds a Google now screen if you swipe all the way to the left and makes the bottom bar through. I don't it would hurt anything seeing as it is just an APK. Shouldn't need root or anything like that.

I thought it needed KitKat to work?

I think it will work on anything with jelly bean or newer. I'm not a hundred percent sure though. When I get my tablet in I will install it and give it a try.
Here's another thread about it.

I think a lot of it had to do with the Google Play services that were provided now. If you update completely Google now Google Voice, I think the google it. Launcher installed with just one apk.

I'm still on version 0.9.6.886092 because i can't update the google now launcher, probably because the TF701 doesn't has 4.4 yet. But it works fine =)
Edit: I've tried it again and now I'm running the latest version of the Google now launcher.

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

Alright I think I have figured out that you cannot review content that was downloaded using the other market I think? Yeah it is pretty confusing if anyone could clarify this a bit more?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

New Go Launcher HD beta

As I use GO Launcher on my Galaxy S 2, thought I would try the tablet version

If only TW was this smooth...

cool will definately try this!!
sadly it aint really usable for me. im running the CM9 alpha and it seems like it doesn't recognize my tab as a tab. it thinks its a phone and tells me to get the phone version of go launcher for a better experience...bummer...
Tried this but adw still feels nicer...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
So have had for a day so far and it is still in beta as some widgets don't seem to working. I was a bit hopeful as was so smooth. Am still with stock as am willing to wait till ICS so this new launcher may not be relevant soon anyway but thought might be worth highlighting to those on stock.
Quick question but is there a tablet version of ADW versus a regular phone version. Just had trouble positioning widgets.
I'he installed this one. Seems very good. Waiting for updates and more setting options.

I use Go Launcher HD on my Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, but didn't like it as much on my 8.9. That was a few beta's ago though. Guess I'll give it another try.

I'm running the modded one now it feels great. I recommend it. Not that my recommendation means anything. It is nice having one that is meant for a tablet.
Give Apex a try
Cannot use the mouse wheel while using usb otg. On stock its working though. Will miss the theming though.

The download in the OP's post is 404
The download from the Play Store makes my Stock albeit rooted 8.9 unresponsive from the unlock screen, leaving me no option to reboot with a very loooooong press of the power button.

Just flashed a custom 4.2.2 N7 rom and sure enough, it's there - interesting enough, it's showing up also on my HTC DI2 running GingerBread (custom rom written over a year ago,) no prompt or option to cancel/postpone or decline, just auto-updated (except that it did not have the Location & Search sub-menu like the N7)
Suffice to say - easily integrated without crashing or freezing, enhancement across the board for all Google devices ... I think. :highfive:
The icon looks very unattractive. Now my app drawer has 3 similar icons side by side that are blue (Google Search), green (Google Settings), and red (Google+)
Hhmm, I don't have it. Dirty AOKP. I'll reboot and see
..
OK, after reboot it's there.
Now my Galaxy Note 2 stock 4.1.2 rooted got this...
It came with recent update of Google Play

Google Now Launcher

Does anyone else favor using the Google Now Launcher over TouchWiz? I'm loving it over the latter, just curious if anyone else uses it.

I've noticed some problems with apps that save to the SD card, but other than that, if you've got the processing/RAM power, it's the best for an Android device.

HTC Sense for 6P

Some of us come from HTC's devices and miss some of the great HTC Sense apps. Well, here they are for your enjoyment: http://www.fulmics.com/htc-sense/
HTC Camera can be found here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/htc-co.../htc-camera-7-30-581119-android-apk-download/
You need HTC Service Pack installed for some apps to function properly.
Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to want to connect or update.

Digitalhigh's ROM also has the Sense apps built-in, and can be updated in Google Play Store.

Htc does make a great video, camera, gallery and editor! You can install the xposed sensify module and the flash stock M8 or A9 htc camera and gallery and it will work very well.

Awesome!!! Former HTC user myself and love having some of those HTC apps. Is it possible to get the HTC dialer as well? Of all things HTC I miss it the most!! Merry Christmas to you all!!
Good question, I can't find this as a downloaded app, but might be able to pull the file from my M8 or any HTC device and test.

HTC Service Pack force closes constantly. I had to uninstall the apps because it was getting extremely annoying. Hopefully HTC will release an update.

Download the sensify xposed module. Then you can get the latest apps on the market. Mine's been working great since day one. No force closes.

Yes, I had the same issue as you with the downloaded version from xposed. So what I tested was pulling the module that is working in DH's ROM. I figured the one in there works fine. I think that's the new version he's working on for general download. Your mileage may vary.

So, I pulled the dialer app from my M8 with Marshmallow and it looks like it definitely works, but the People/Contacts portion doesn't pull any of the contact info. I'm playing with other related apps to see if I can get it to work. If so i'll report back when and if I figure it out.

Hi. Were you able to port the dialer? I am also looking to use the analog clock widgets without the need to use HTC launcher (I use Nova prime). Any way to do that?
