Launcher3 apk

Again in my quest to achieve 10 posts (this is silly, but I see the point.)

Here's an APK of Launcher3 built from the android-4.4_r1 branch of AOSP. I have no idea if these work on builds that are not the ones they came from, but it works well enough on my build which it's based on.

Landscape acts just like Google Home for icons! There's no way around this outside of code changes somewhere. (Widgets are fine except they won't auto-resize. If you correct them to work in Landscape manually, that seems to stay)

I actually discovered something using a PA rom. At least for the google experience launcher, it is google search that is controling dpi, app layout and per app colors. Seems like it is an even tighter connection between the two than originaly thought.

Yes, they are distributed in the same APK most likely because of how Launcher3 implements the Now integration. They likely have to be the "Same" app for security reasons. It's still a stand-alone app if you build it from AOSP though.
