I don't like the ADW launcher much. It lacks certain features that I absolutely loved using in the GO Launcher EX. I'm running the latest build of Grif's cyanogenmod 7.1 beta2. Would it be possible to remove adw launcher completely and replace it go launcher EX without any significant problems ?
Thank you.
I've been using the stock Gingerbread launcher in RC1 Beta1 from the moment I flashed it, and I've done the same with Beta2. No problems whatsoever.
Will I need to ADW launcher first before installing GO Launcher ?
Just download Go Launcher from the market, install it, press the home button and select GO Launcher. Not exactly rocket science.

you cant.
you also cant use touch wiz specific widgets in launcher pro.
they are both coded for their specific home environment.
So how do I change the files ?
Why couldn't I just add the to system/app ?

how do you change the files as in recode them to work in another launcher?
you would need the source code and since neither touch wiz or launcher pro are open source, this is not possible.
your best option is to browse the market and find similar widgets.
otherwise if you want to use launcher pro widgets, you'll just have to use launcher pro.
same goes for touch wiz.

you could add them to system/app lots of people using the old mytouches and G1's used to put launcher pro and ADW there all the time, but it wont let you use the widgets interchangably, as they are coded only for their respective launchers.
it would simply free up a small bit of space in your data folder, and use a small bit of space in your system/apps folder.

Hi Everybody:
I'm new in Android. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830L) and i want to install Go Launcher Ex, but i have a question: if i install the launcher, the default interface (Touchwiz) will be uninstalled? If i install Go Launcher Ex, and i want to uninstall it, i can get Touchwiz Again?
Thanks in Advance
If u install a launcher like go launcher and set it as default
U will need to go to
settings
Applications
The golauncher and set as stock to off
If u have uninstalled twlauncher with root

Ok, but, installing Go Launcher Ex Doesn't necessarily forces me to uninstall Touchwiz, doesn't it? Because i don't have root access (yet).

Nope
No launcher removes other launchers
Unless your launcher is a system launcher

¡Excellent! Then I will install it!
spacecaker, Thank you for your help.
[SIZE="4"]Hi,
I just installed the ICS 4.0.3 from a rom that i downloaded from here.
I installed using Odin and all went smoothly, but the problem is after installing the same old interface is still there.
What should i do to get the new ICS wonderful Interface (theme)?
Buy a Google phone or flash an AOSP based ROM.
Download Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher from the Play Store.

Practically you wont find any big changes in user interface as both uses touchwiz. you have two choices.
1.Read and learn more about aosp/aokp roms and flash it. you will get pure ics experience with those.
2.Simply change the launcher to apex or nova to get the ics feel.
The best choice
The best choice is a combination between the theme of Lord Vertumus and the trebuchet launcher....
Thnx
Thnx for replies
Really appreciated
Since I can't post into specific threads yet so I have to do it here.
I love the slim insanity rom but I have one problem. It installs with apex launcher and I wanted to go pro but can't seem to do that. How do I proceed now that I bought the upgrade?
Best regards
Install another launcher (go launcher, nova launcher, etc).enable new launcher, then uninstall apex launcher from system/apps folder (e.g. root uninstaller) reboot and go to market and install apex pro, set apex as default launcher.uninstall second launcher.done
PS.do NOT uninstall apex before u have another launcher on your phone or will have to reflash the Rom
So yeah, i just finished flashing latest resurrection remix to my i9100, but i want to keep the stock launcher (trebuchet), is there anyway to delete xperia home launcher (its not listed on my apps list so i can not uninstall it the normal way) and just leave the trebuchet stock launcher ?
Thanks
you can use this to delete system progs and move trebuchet over to the system
or you can just install Trebuchet and use this to ensure it is used as the default

Install a file Manager with Root access and then go to system/app and then search for the xperia home launcher and delete it.
You can also just install the Apex launcher or the Holo launcher HD, they are practically the same as the trebuchet launcher, but with more functions.

So deleting the apk from the system folder will uninstall the whole launcher ?

In addition to what they've said, I've read the RR 3.1.0 Changelog and they said that they've included the Trebuchet Launcher from CM 10. I can't confirm it for now though because I'm currently using CM10 Nightlies, but currently downloading the ROM right now.
