Can a launcher eliminate all vestiges of One UI?
I prefer buttons to gestures whenever possible. I even use a button to pull down notification bar. Gestures take much more attention and often required 2 handed use.Certainly all of the home pages will be different. But settings, etc. are also a part of One UI.
I also like the new recents and gesture navigation. However, Bixby Home is useless now, as long as the cards only work in the order that Samsung thinks they should. Bixby Voice Unlock is gone. The new ui design that might improve ease of access for some, while wasting space for others. Night mode should be able to work with themes and the theme store should have been better prepared for the new os instead of getting broken by it.
I'm also not a fan of the clock and I would prefer to just turn it off instead of having it in the wrong place.
Not many of these things are fixable
Bixby Voice works for me.
Will it let you unlock your phone with it?
Ty kind sir. I side loaded Pie and barely notice any changes. Note: I'm running Nova launcher and didn't change anything.
Question. I use nova also and like you it was a seamless move. Until I noticed that with the change nova no longer had notifications count appear on some apps. I contacted nova and the email I got back was saying problems with Teslaunread and that they were phasing that out and modifying nova to eliminate dependence on teslaunread. I had to switch back to the standard launcher but never uninstalled nova. Today I got an update on nova and tried it again but it seemed like it still had the same bug. You have any problem with the notification count?
Yes, you may have to adjust settings.
Are you referring to app icon notifications? If so, I had to "enable notifications" for Nova, and then it resolved this for me. I had to dig around some, but I'll see if I can remember how I did it.

They released v6.1 of nova prime today to completely do away with tesla unread and sort the notification issues.Yes sir. Tesla unread is the problem. I don't have any solution yet.
The only thing I miss from oreo and samsung experiance is how it handled split screen. Other than that I love the update. I have better battery life, dark mode, that little tool circle that lets you rotate your screen only when you want to and not automatically, gestures, a more fluid experience, bixby button remapping, and touch sensativity control to name a few. I really like the update and where things are going with the OS and samsungs twist on things.

I like One UI, haven't used Nova since I got it. I think probably because they resized the icons. I prefer them bigger.
