go into settings and change what home key does cm settings> input> press home settings and if you have launcher pro, you can change it in preferences

Thanks, i don't see any option for home key in cm besides the custom long press option and even that didn't work i guess i just have to do a fresh install again.

I'm also having this problem.

download launcher pro, that will give you the option to change the home key default action

What ROM are you running at the moment or SE firmware?
That can determine if you can get the app drawer back or not?
And, how did you delete it?
Andriod 2.2.1
andriod 2.2.1 cyanogenmod 6.1.1
Or simply reflash or backup apsa on astro and restore.

What launcher are you using bro?
Can you try long press on the dock menu? I think you see there open all apps drawer or something.

using andriod 2.2.1 cyanogenmod 6.1.1 and in 2.2.1 i can replace or put apps in dock so i do a mistake and replace my aap with all apps menu
I've done this plenty of times, im using adw Launcher so this could be different for other launchers
Long press on your home screen, Launcher actions, then select open/close App Drawer.

i have seen in adw launcher but cannot find open/close appdrawer i have too much games and other data so cannot change my andriod
Easiest way would be to install a different launcher.
I believe you can also add a shortcut of the app drawer.

try Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> Launcher -> Clear data.
If it did not resolve your issue, backup ADW launcher settings, uninstall and install it again, after that when you click home it should popup for you to choose between the launchers.

Is there any way to remove the persistent Google search bar?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
you can either go to system settings>applications and disable google search, or go to the themes and applications section of the forum and pick up Trebuchet Launcher which has the option to remove the bar and even more good stuff

thanks for ur reply.... i tried to install trebuchet but it doesnt give me launcher settings when i hit the menu key on the home screen. any further assitance would be appreciated. thanks
in trebuchet settings you can uncheck "enable persistent searchbar"
first you have to make trebuchet your default launcher

I downloaded it and flashed it via CWM but dont have any launcher settings
How do i make it my default launcher?
go to settings>applications and under all applications you should see both launchers. Disable the stock launcher defaults. Then when you go to use your phone the system will prompt you to pick which launcher to use/ make default
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Thanks for all ur help and all. But when I go to all applications I don't see both launchers. I installed trebuchet thru CWM. It says it installed successfully. Any more help would be appreciated

Usually after i install launcher, when I press home button it ask for default launcher.
But try going to all applications again and clearing defaults for your current Launcher.

[Q] Cannot get rid of TW as default launcher???

Arrgggh! Someone please help, as this is driving me nuts. I have set ADW EX as my default using Homeswitcher, but every time I press the home button, the evil TW is back.
It must be simple, but I'm missing it. Any help appreciated
first you need root and 2nd you need some kind of root explorer. then navigate to system/app choose seclauncher2 and rename it to seclauncher2.apk.bak. but keep you other launcher active.
or i think you can go to settings/apps and try to deactivate it but not sure if thats gonna work, that does not work with all apps
Go to
Settings > apps
Search for touchwhiz
Select
Then clear defaults
Press home key
Chose add as default
And boom

I have used Android since Cupcake on the HTC Dream/G1. I have used non-stock launchers for 2+ years. Trust me, this was different.
Normally, I install the new launcher, press home and then get asked which to use and set by default using the tick box. That should be it, but TW kept coming back as default. Even using home switcher, which has never failed me.

but when u again click home key
it will take u back to default launcher and that was tw as selected

That's odd, as I have a Galaxy Note too, and that behaviour doesn't happen, even on ICS. Only the S3 confused me :-D
I have no issues using apex launcher on the s3, same as it has been for every other android version, maybe its an issue with the specific launchers you are using.

Delete weather bz application. Or add to autostart. That will fix reboot problem.
And in settings buttons choose home key long press for recent apps, menu key none. That will solve it.
