[MOD][4.2+/CM11][DISCONTINUED]Google Velvet Launcher with 5 shortcut menu

[Adi Aisiteru Reborn]

Google Velvet Kit-Kat Launcher
with 5 Shortcut home menu & Auto rotate

ATTENTION !
This mod is only for 4.2+/ CM11 Devices / Roms which is built in / using Google Velvet Kit Kat as launcher, or for you who have using the launcher as system apps.
If you want to use this mod, I recomended / optional you have to be in my Roms : [ROM][JB 4.2.2][CM10.1] BEAN KAT 4.4 Mod v-3 Galaxy Wonder GT-I8150 **22nd/11/2013**

or Roms by @miki2o : [JB][4.3.1]Feel the KitKat Project ROM v2 [04/11/13]

or any 4.4 base roms but already flashed Gapps ( and still in DALVIK runtime )

INTRODUCTION :
I found the latest 4.4 Google Kit kat launcher is so terrible, we can't access system settings from homescreen shortcut menu, because there is no shortcut for that,. we must put Settings apps to homescreen first if we want to get easy to enter system settings
so I try to mod it and finally I can add two more shortcut to homescreen menu ( System settings & Manage apps ) this is standard all launcher should have, I think so
so later you will have 5 shortcut in homescreen menu ( Wallpaper, Widget, Google now settings, System settings, Manage apps )
