[PROBLEM] replace launcher on custom Rom - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have problem. I am using HYPERION Rom build 06 and I want to using on it lmodded touchwiz launcher from Creed v3.5. So I use root explorer and I delete default launcher and I was trying to install launcher from creed. But... It does not work. Still says that "application is not installed"... I was try for many tricks and advice but still it does not work.
Is somebody have trick for that? Any solutions or guide for replace launchers?

I'm pretty sure you don't delete launchers from explorer. Maybe it would be a better idea to install the new one alongside the old one and when you get comfortable with
the new one, just delete the old one using root uninstaller app from the market.
If you have a nandroid backup, restore it and do as told above

Same is the problem with me. I also want to replace the touchwiz launcher but not able to do so. What to do?

[Q] Removing Launcher on 2.1

Hi guys,
I know its short after the 2.1 release, but did someone manage to remove the current launcher from the device?
Currently installed Launcher Pro and its running more smoother than the stock launcher.
Tried to find the launcher with Rootexplorer, but it seems it got replaced in a different folder or maybe renamed.
I removed most of the crap using titanium backup
Worked a treat - give it a try.
the are 2 files that may match
/data/data/com.android.launcher <- main launcher?
/data/data/com.sony.uwlop.launcher <- timescape launcher?
How can we remove the Chinese/...-Keyboards?
I can't find them with Titanium.

Further to my original post i used Titanium back up and just froze the home app. seems to work handset much more responsive now

try titanium backup, works the best
or just go and search "root uninstaller" in play store
just remember not to delete everything because some stuff your phone needs for it to work, even if u don't use it.

Flashed RR, but want trebuchet

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.

[Q] S5830i Can't install Google Play Services

Hello all,
I can't go over the error:
Incompatible with other application(s) using the same shared user ID.
When I try to install Google Play Services app from Google Store...
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i with the Jelly Bean Blast 4.1, so far so good... But with this Google Play Services is making my week tougher!
Any straightforward or tested solution to instal this App???
THX!!!
BTW why this happens???
Try again after cleaning dalvik-cache and cache. Hmm... in android all apps have unique id. Thanks to this app can be identified ie. in superuser. Repeating uid is bug, so i'm not sure how to fix this.
Regards.

Finished! Try, test, and report back please.
Backup Your Current launcher FIRST!!! or install one from playstore.
It's just a precaution, because I don't have note edge to test it.
Extract the zip, then copy and replace it in the touchwiz folder and then set permissions. Reboot and enjoy!
