Dark mode is pretty nice at night but opening the app drawer ain't pretty. App drawer stays white themed. Any fixes?
Sorry, I've not been able to solve that issue.
I ended up replacing the launcher with Nova and uninstalling the stock launcher to prevent it from stealing the default all the time. Now the app drawer is dark and pressing home works correctly.
Probably not what you were after, but its an option.

Tried to install CM6.1 with the launcher 2 option but after install my phone just hangs at the cm logo animation. I can feel the vibration from unlocking the phone when I touch the area that it should be in. I would just use the ADW launcher but they switched the belete icon and uninstall short cut to appear at The top of the screen rather than dragging it to the app drawer. I have replaced the app drawer 5 times now because of that and I have to reinstall each time because there isn't an option to bring it back or just lock it there. I don't like launcher pro so don't suggest it. I can make dew and just remember not to do that but a way to load launcher 2 stick would be nice

I figured out how to get the app drawer back after deleting it. for those that have not here is a video

Anyone know of a launcher that orients the dock to the bottom in landscape? I've tried adw, launcher pro and zeam but none seem to have the option unless I'm missing it.

I always wondered about this but never thought to post here. Thanks for reminding me.
Well here is one option. In ADW (I'm using EX but I'm pretty sure the unpaid app does the same) go into settings, UI settings, main dock, main dock style and choose the no icon option. Now, go back to your home screen and create a 'launcher action' shortcut that open and closes the app drawer. You'll have to make one for every screen you have ... or not. For a while i only had one on my main screen so there was more room on the others.
Yeah, that's what I am doing now (adw w/out dock). I was just looking for a sticky dock with maybe some eye candy.

That's a pretty slick idea.
Thanks!
I just use the swipe down action to open the app drawer. This way I have no dock on screen and can get to the drawer from any of my screens. I'm using ADW free version.

Exactly, though I prefer swipe up for and down for notifications. That way you can even hide the status bar.
Power Launcher Pro has landscape mode with the dockbar at the bottom.
I don't get how i did it, cause it was just showing the standard black background for the app drawer a few seconds ago, but now it shows my wallpaper even when i open the app drawer. Anyone kno how i did this, and how i can switch back. I like it the way it is, but in case i wanna change it back
I am using ADW, GingerVolt 2.0 and IceCreamKangwich Theme. The only change i made prior to it doing this was make it so the wallpaper wasn't scrollable anymore, but that had nothing to do with obviously.
I'm a dumbass, it was the transparency setting, somehow it got tweaked lol
Hi, just updated my paid for adw ex and, shock/horror, the ugly google search bar (which i never use) was back on on my desktop.
oh, i remember why i got adw launcher, just drag it to to bin.
er... its not moving, its not moving.
oh, wait a minute, whats the symbol on the end of the serach bar.
well, well, its adw settings.
i will try to recover the previous version of adw unless someone has an easy answer
(just checked on android market reviews and it seems i am not alone)
Isn't there the search widget and a option to for the resistant search bar, based on portrait/landscape?
It is called "Actionbar" and can be disabled.
ADW Settings -> "Screen setting" (or something similar, using it in German where it is called " Bildschirm-Einstellungen") -> Actionbar Design
OK, thanks chris_82. I am back on previous version now. There was also an ugly blue outline when changing screens and a thick white line on my clear dock icons. Also it was "slaggy"
I'll be steering clear of this for now

You can change all of these settings in the settings screen. On my installation adw launcher ex works really well and the new version is on of the smoothest launcher I have ever tried.

So is there a way to change the ugly blue outline added to the screen transitions? I've tried themes and none seem to change this. My phone is not blue and these transition outlines clash horribly.

@godsponge: i didnt like those outlines either, go to adw settings>Screen>Show outlines and untick
I am thinking about trading my Note Edge in for a Nexus 6, played with one today at the store and I really liked it, the screen is amazing. But one thing about Lollipop turned me off big time and may be a deal breaker. The white background in the app drawer and settings, this is the ugliest thing ive ever seen, completely blocking the beautiful screen in the background. Looked in the settings on the display phone in the store and could not find anything to change it, please tell me their a way. Because if not, I will not use 5.0 til this is resolved!
Use a launcher off the play store. There are dozens that allow you to customize all you want.
Nova Launcher will allow you to set transparency in your app drawer. You will have to run a custom ROM to get rid of the white settings.

The settings is black on LS ROM. And Nova launcher works great too for black backgrounds.
Oops.
Thanks guys, I was worried.
