Installed FaceBook Messenger Lite apk from apkmirror on LineageOS 14.1 (based on Android 7.1.1) on Xiaomi MI5 Pro device (rooted).
Tried Messenger Lite apk version 4.1.x and 5.0.x.
Installs fine, runs fine upon upon initial install if select "Open" at end of apk install.
However there is no icon on the launcher screens, no icon in app drawer, and no widgets available. So no way to re-launch the app once you close it after initial install.
The only place the app appears in under Settings - Apps.
Uninstall works fine.
Anyone else have this issue?
My friend try quickshortcutmaker apk. Search google to find it. Open the app and search the messenger lite app in it and afterwards choose to make a shortcut. I have used this app in lg phones where I have had same problem with some apps...
Have you tried checking the launcher's widgets/shortcuts option?
@flxas - thank you! Quickshortcutmaker appears to have done the trick!
@Yehhhhhh - thanks for you help too, but every other apk I have ever installed has added an icon to my launcher, so I don't think that the issue is caused by trebuchet launcher settings.
Turns out the Messenger Lite app was in my app tray after all. I found it under "L" for "Lite" in the app drawer, but under "Messenger Lite" in Settings - Apps..
If you install the Facebook Lite apk, it ends up under "L" for "Lite" in the app drawer and also under Settings - Apps.

I've been using Global Stable 8.2.1.0 with Google Now Launcher and it's working great until maybe yesterday(?), I don't know. There was an update to either the Google Search app or the Google Now Launcher.
If I try to open the app drawer, all of the apps are gone. The apps are there, I can open them if there is an icon on the home screens or through play store. But the app drawer is blank.
Is anyone else having this problem?

UPDATE 3/12/2018- LATEST One UI launcher APK attached-Experience Launcher has got updated to ONE UI launcher now- works ONLY WITH APP CLONER
APP CLONER REQUIRED FOR INSTALLING THE LATEST ONE UI HOME APK PROVIDED BY ME
HOW TO USE APP CLONER--- Install apk From website -- open app-- apk(second column), click the + sign(blue icon) on lower right side-- from file-- browse to find the apks provided by me.*
Then click the tick sign, it will clone and then install it.
App cloner link
https://appcloner.app/
APP CLONER basically clones the app so that apps which are compatible with your system but can't be installed, work fine.
If you're not interested in app CLONER, normal install the other launcher from link and use.
One UI launcher here has 3D touch like iPhone-
Attached apk of the latest version***works ONLY WITH APP CLONER***

Finally, if you liked the new look, don't forget to put a thumbs up for this post
**SHORTCUT-- FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO INSTALL MORE THAN 3-4 APKS **
Install the 5 files from links- launcher, theme file, goodlock ,substratum with left clock- that will be enough for giving the ONE UI look(you will get the EXACT look given in first post screenshots, leaving aside the native Samsung pie apps)
You can even leave the substratum and left clock if you don't need left clock- that will reduce it to JUST 3 APKS to install
The other weather, dialer etc are pie apps and you don't necessarily need them- just that if you need entirely pie apps running on your Oreo Device with the pie experience.*
This will take very few minutes and done!- you have the one ui look!
Finally, if you liked the new look, don't forget to put a thumbs up for this post

I did the same thing a couple of weeks ago, but i just cant manage to get the rounded notifications on the status bar drawer like yours. mine just scramble with some ****ty background colour, especially when i have a white app behind it.
Try uninstalling the themes and reinstalling
Faced the same problem and did it ,got resolved.

Notes One UI APK

The alternative is to use The theme v3 day, then use Swift installer, change apps to black amoled, and the rest of the tweaks in Swift installer too- like use material theme and even transparency of the pull down notif.
Will try that. ?
Never tried the swift installer

The browser also has modes to hide status bar which actually helps us use the entire screen for browsing?

Yes. It's just that the whole idea of one uinis to move important elements to he button. And I don't know but I think the address bar is very important and almost out of reach even for my big hands.
I can't get notifications on this launcher

Why is that?
Sony App collection
What can my module do?
- It allows you to install most Sony apps from the PlayStore or you download the APKs from APKMirror (Music, Album, Live Wallpapers and many more)
- It supports add ons for apps that aren't available at the Play Store (Widgets, E-mail, Contacts, Dialer, Launcher and some more)
- Couple of functions are still in work and hopefully will be added soon
How do I install it?
1. Download and install the Base module in Magisk
- Now, after a reboot, you can start getting your Sony apps from the PlayStore or you install the from me tested APK's
Optional:
2. Download and install an add-on of your choice in Magisk
- That's all
Add-on description:
The most add-ons remove the AOSP/Google apps and replace it with the Sony alternative.
After uninstalling the module the AOSP/Google app will be restored.
Extra (non-magisk):
3. Download and flash the Xperia Bootanimation via TWRP
Workarounds
How to open AR effect?
- Download and install More Shortcuts from the PlayStore
Open the App and select "Activity"
Search for "AR effect" and tap on it
Now tap on the first entry in the list (AREffectApp) and creat a shortcut
Now there is a shortcut on your launcher with that you can open the app
How to open the Xperia Assist?
- It doesn't create a app icon, it creates a new category in the settings app, so just open the settings and tap on "Xperia Assist"
How to open the Photo editor?
-You have to install also the Album app to use it.
From the Album app you just tap on a photo and then on the edit button than you can choose the photo editor
You miss an app or have a problem with an existing one?
-Just leave a comment and I'll help you as soon as possible.
Do you want an add-on that I haven't created yet?
-Just ask and I will give my best to create it for you.
Gdrive is to slow or aren't available?
-Then use the Mega mirror
A big thanks to:
Sony
APKMirror
Jurn_Software (4PDA)
For the future
Many thanks dear developer for porting Sony Apps to the community and for making them available to anyone.
I tried 4 Apks on my Xiaomi Mi A2, where I was the most curious about, like for example the live wallpapers and normal wallpapers and I have to say that I was amazed. It remembers you of the PS3 live wallpapers. On top of that it offers many colours.
Other than that I tried Photo Editor which has nice editing features. This one is maybe a bit simplistic in its choices but the choices it offers are compelling. Sony almost always means great quality and you can tell for yourself.
The play store recognizes and finds Sony Apps after installing the base module in magisk which is a bonus. :good:
If all 4 Apks worked, then the others should work, too.
IT WORKS
It works very well on mimix2 thanks jigs4wkiller
PS4 remote play?
After deleting CHplay data it works pretty well, thanks!
Work's perfectly on my MI A1
Does it support arm32?
I have a few apps installed that shouldn't show up in the launcher. Examples include the Greenify donation package and the Titanium Backup Pro Key. When I upgraded to my new Pixel 4 XL, these apps started showing up in the app drawer. Opening them just shows the App Info page for the app. Any ideas?
I heard about a possible change in API 29, but I don't remember seeing the problem on my Pixel 2 running Android 10.
Thanks!

Sorry must be.
I installed One Ui Home apk version 11.0.50.67 via Appcloner 2.2.1. It's force closed every time, didn't work for me. Which version did you use? Current firmware build is XXS9DTA1.
Just simply clear the data of one ui2 home in the settings after installing the app from app cloner directly go to settings and clear the data then hit home button and select the oneui2 home it will work.
Cloned version 11.0.50.71, but after install the crash every time.
Works well, but I'm going back to Nova Launcher

You can select the oneui home apk from apk cloner on the left side there will be a small folder option simply hit that and choose select apk then follow the same procedure. Or u can also watch my youtube channel for a tutorial.

Does anyone have a apk that works that they can share?
I have updated the thread with download links for both one ui home and app cloner just simply download it and use the procedure.
