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.

Hi, i just installed a LPQ ROM, but it doesn't have the TouchWiz launcher (Yes, I like it), so i copied a touchwiz30.apk (something like that, i don't know if it's the correct one) in the system/app folder, but when i try to "open" the launcher it just forces close...!!! Has anyone experimented that??? Is there a fix? Or something like " TOCHWIZ 4.5 for ICS"?
TW UI is the default Launcher for the official Android 4.0.3 ROM
If you copied from GB, does`t work. Copy from stock LPQ rom
why do not you try the nova launcher? This is available in the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher

nova launcher is lame compared to tw4.5. nova is slow, and u cant even create folders as u can do in TW4.5 . lack of tw4.5 is the reason for me not to install 4.0.3.
probably he feels the same i do

Sounds like you didn't install the official release from Samsung. If you didn't, and the ROM maker removed the TouchWiz framework, you'd be better off re flashing the official Samsung release, as there are a lot more components than just that one .apk.

See above. Official Samsung releases will ALWAYS have TouchWiz.
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
And dont hav backupp

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.
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
Is it ever safe to install a launcher from the PlayStore and uninstall the default launcher in the ROM?
What could possibly be the consequences? Will any additional mods that I install to the ROM get disabled?
Yes, it is safe. But i suggest you not unistall default launcher, just freeze in titanium

Yes it's absolutely safe... I have installed apex launcher instead of trebuchet in CM10 by FXP
And its much better and has more customization options...
I suggest you copy trebuchet apk from root menu and then replace it by nova or apex launcher :thumbup:

Sure, but don't uninstall it. Just use the other one as default. Otherwise if you do a factory reset you have no launcher
That's great. Also, which Launcher is suggested which uses less resources and has a lot of options.
Personally, I like GoLauncher but it scares me to see how much resources it uses...

That's what I thought. Have been trying out different launchers and this one is cool...way better than GoLauncher

DON'T DO IT! Your new launcher will be in data partition whereas your default launcher will be present in system partition! Factory reset will result in bootloop. If you desperately want to get rid of the stock launcher then mount the system partition writable and move the downloaded launcher to /system/app and then you can safely uninstall the default launcher!
Hit thanks if I have helped!
Sent from my smultron using xda app-developers app
it is completely safe to uninstall the default launcher.
but i freeze it instead of uninstalling it.
Good to know this, maybe i'll change the default launcher of CM if I reinstall it again on my SK17i
Hmmm...thanks a lot for the tips guys

You can use Titanium Backup to convert in system app, or you can push it manually in system/app and reboot
