Settings -> applications -> manage applications, then click on Go Launcher and clear defaults down the bottom.

Or you can download something to manage your launchers:
https://market.android.com/search?q=home+switcher&c=apps
Just hit Settings / Preferences / Exit GO Launcher.
From here you can choose a launcher (abd make it default) by pressing the home button.

I'd like to know if it's possible to create a proper shortcut to launch widgetlocker; I know there's an activity shortcut when adding it to desktop, but I'd like to start widgetlocker using the swipe up action of adw launcher and in order to do that it needs to be a simple shortcut to the app.
Anyone knows how to do that?

muy buena app
Hi, just Did that on my Defy. with Go Launcher, but should be the same with ADW
go to settings , select wipe up or down, then choose shortcut, there you should find an entry Widget Locker Lock now. Choose it. and you're done.
Thanks, but as I said before adw launcher lets me choose only from the installed apps (the ones which appear in the app drawer), therefore I cannot select "widgetlocker lock now".

Hi, that's because on ADW it's not in the apps section. Don't click "applications" on the main shortcut selection list. Just scroll down.
Quick question, I downloaded ADW EX and while messing with it I selected Home as the default launcher. I've gone to Manage Applications to clear the default but I don't see the "home" application (OK I'm a noob). How do I clear the home launcher default? I'm really liking ADW and want to use it as default.
Check under the "all" applications tab
Thank you!! That did it. Man I'm a noob LOL
Is it possible to access the Personalize menu from another launcher somehow? Going to Menu -> Settings -> Personalize does nothing at all from inside ADW... and it's the only way to customize the lock screen and whatnot... I can uninstall ADW, go back to Sense and it works, but I don't use Sense... and it would be nice if I could just hit a button or whatever and get there without having to change my home launcher...
OK this may or may not work. I know if you are in sense as the launcher, you can open adw with the app shortcut in the drawer, so, in adw can you just make a shortcut to sense, and click that?

Thanks for the suggestion, but Sense doesn't show up in in the list when trying to add a shortcut or any widget or anything.

lol it wouldn't be that easy. I was more hoping you could find the intent in the launcher action/system function list...
My workaround is to go into applications and clear defaults on whatever launcher im using and press home and switch to sense and then personalize what i need and go back and reset my alternative launcher to default. Kind of a pain but it works. Wish i had a quick shortcut to suggest.
Hey.
Yesterday I tried Nova Launcher and its got one amazing feature: a recent apps (multitasking) icon for the desktop. I would really like to use that on the stock TouchWiz, which I prefer. Is there any way I can use that icon or install it on TouchWiz? That way I dont need to hold down the home button everytime. Its easier and faster, just like the multitasking button on the Galaxy Nexus.
Does someone know how to do it? I would like to install it on my desktop keeping TouchWiz.
Thanks!
Or if anyone knows some other trick to access the multitasking with another program or widget that would be great. Any possible way to avoid the long press home button.
Thanks.
The Nova Recent Apps shortcut is actually designed so it can be used from more than just Nova Launcher, it works with TouchWiz for example .
From TouchWiz > App Drawer > Widgets > Nova Launcher 1 x 1 (not the app and not the Nova Activities), then select Recent Apps.

Hi,
I'm trying to move some widgets from the drawer but I get a message about "Due to limitations of the Android framwork, you cannot add widgets from the drawer without root access" The thing is, I do have root access. How can I get around this?
If you not rooted yet, just add widgets through the home screen not from the app drawer.
press and hold(in the home screen in empty space) and add widgets
