Most Important Notes

-- Try this on some Pixel Gapps Roms to make sure every features work perfectly. On Vanilla Roms all the features may not work even if you flash the gapps. If some features don't work on Vanilla/Not Good GApps Build Rom then you can check Troubleshooting No. 5 Below.

-- Before flashing launcher module make sure to update all system apps from play store. Otherwise, it may give bootloop or launcher crashing issue.

-- If you are using previous version of my mod then you can directly flash newer version without removing previous version. After flashing turn off & on themed icons once to get new icons.

-- If you are using QuickSwitch Module then remove it first. It conflicts with pixel launcher mod.

-- Always keep Bootloop Saver Module in magisk. It will save you from bootloop if some module is causing bootloop issue. Click Here To Download.


Variants Details

There are 3 different variants available. There is codename for each variant.


Horus, It consists all the mod features mentioned above except Double Tap To Sleep. everything will work perfectly on this.


Khonsu, It consists all the mod features mentioned above with Seamless Double Tap To Sleep. On this variant double tap to sleep feature will work as soon as you enable it from settings.

However, This Seamless Dt2s feature doesn't work on every rom & on some roms when you double tap then laucher crashes. Why it crashed for you? Because some roms have their own signature key and this variant is using aosp signature & dt2s require same signature in rom. That's the reason it works perfectly in unofficial EvoX & EvoX Official Unsigned Build but it crashes in EvoX Signed Build.


Ammit, If the above mentioned Khonsu Variant's dt2s isn't working for you then use this variant. It consists all the mod features mentioned above with Double Tap To Sleep. On this variant double tap to sleep feature will work when you enable it from accessibility settings.

Troubleshooting

1.) If you are face flickering issue on home screen then go to settings>Apps>Default Apps>Home App and select Pixel Launcher again.

2.) Screenshot Editor by Google isn't available with your rom? In some roms it isn't pre-installed. You can flash it in magisk. Download From Here. Only flash it if your rom doesn't have this otherwise it may create issues.

3.) Those of you, who got old google assistant after flashing pixel launcher.
Try this workaround
- Download Latest Google Apk From Here
Download only this varient: Arch arm64-v8a, Version Android 10+, DPI nodpi.
- Install this apk using SAI

4.) Weather Widget on "At A Glance" or "Select Feature" of Pixel Launcher is not working? Then try updating Google App, Google Play Services, Android System Intelligence (ASI), Android System Webview, Google Calendar, Google Lens and all other Google apps from PlayStore. If your roms doesn't have these apps then install them from play store or apkmirror. I will suggest you to use some roms that have pixel gapps by default.

5.) Still Weather Widget and select feature or other pixel launcher features like Universal Search aren't working? or you are facing launcher crash issue then Download Add-On No. 1 From Here. It contain Android System Intelligence(Which will fix all these issues).

6.) Not getting Android 12L Style Wallpaper Preview? Set some random wallpaper first then you will get new wallpaper preview.

7.) If your rom has their own implementation of Monet/"Material You" for example Crdroid Rom and it's interfering with Pixel Launcher's Monet. For example, Material You isn't working properly and it's not changing colour according to wallpaper. Then follow this:

Download Latest Termux From Here. Open it & Type:

su

and give it root access. Now Type:

settings delete secure theme_customization_overlay_packages

& press enter. After finishing this process, reboot device once. It should fix the issue. Thanks to @kdrag0n & @xenxynon for this solution. Tested on Crdroid 8.3 by @NOUREHAB79.

8.) If you don't see any new features after flashing successfully then probably you might installed & updated Pixel Launcher via APK in past. Go to Settings>Apps>See All Apps and open 3 dot menu, click Show system. Search Pixel Launcher & uninstall updates of it from 3 dot menu.
