[Q] Launcher Problem

hey guys,
I current flashed the litening rom and it gives me launcher pro as default launcher
and i removed it by deleting the lancherpro apk file using ROOT EXPLORER as I downloaded the launcherpro plus and tried to install it with astro but it says: application not installed! any idea?
Dodgy apk maybe? Make sure LP is uninstalled correctly in applications.

Did you reboot in between the two tasks? Sometimes it requires a reboot. Also before deleting the original did you make something else as your default launcher (ie TW)?
do u have the standard launcher (tw launcher) still installed?
THanks guys i need to reboot lol peace

Issue with Changing PlayStore icon in apk

Hi guys
I have been trying to theme my current installed app's icons using 7zip. i know i want to do this way coz i'm on honami stock launcher which doesnt support iconpacks.... So i can change icon successfully on playstore app apk using 7zip drag n drop replace way, but then after reboot playstore wont open/force close. ( changed in data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk icon. Then i wiped dalvik cache and fixed permissions. So it opens and but it appears like previous version in UI and when i open second time it upgrades to latest version and stock icon back
But i edited the latest apk in data/app/... So any way around this... i know this is strange way of doing it and you may ask?? but i want to keep stock laucher and theme icons .... any help appreciated...

[Q] TeslaUnread rejecting unofficial 'Nova Launcher'

Hi all,
Successfully reflashed my Xperia U with CM9-ZIII. It looks pretty awesome and runs about 10 times faster than before. Nice work.
However I get this error message: "TeslaUnread rejecting unofficial 'Nova Launcher' Please uninstall it and install only the official version."
I have TeslaUnread version 2.3 (as in ROM)
When I try and update NovaLauncher I see "Error. Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again."
Am I the only one that's seeing this? Why am I seeing this? How do I uninstall and reinstall Nova Launcher?

This happens if U install Nova Launcher Prime out of PlayStore and Tesla works only for Nova launcher prime..
Check whether you have downloaded NovaPrime launcher from googleplay or installed form sd card..
If from SDCARD, no solution..
Well that was the thing I didn't install Nova Prime it seemed to come with the ROM image. Perhaps its an older version? It would be good if the ROM builder could reply.
The solution I eventually found:
Install a different launcher from Play Store. I chose Apex.
Install a file manager app. I think ES File Manager was the one I picked.
Using the file manager tool delete \system\apps\Nova.apk
Restart and download Nova Launcher free version.
TeslaUnread doesn't work with Nova Launcher free. I think it will if you install another widgets manager or something. I haven't got that far yet.

I dont think whether it will support for other launchers...

Is it possible to install themes offline?

I've been searching high and low and I just can't find an answer. When I go to Settings - Themes and try to apply one, it says "can't connect to the network".
I DO NOT want to connect to anything, let alone create any accounts just to be able to change the way my UI looks.
Is there any way to do this?
P.S. This thread is about something completely different than the one I posted recently, so I hope it isn't a problem that I made a separate one.
if you have root this is what I did, downloaded miui.am rom, extracted ThemeManager.apk and replace the file in my system, now I'm able to apply themes offline and 3 party sources themes

can you pleas upload ThemeManager.apk ?
U can use miui theme creator from Google play store to create signed themes, then there will be no problem like connection or 3rd party error
