The home navigation button is not showing an app (Browser app) that i would like to be assigned to the swipe up gesture. How can i add a specific app to the "use a different app" list?
See attachments for further explanation. Thanks

I did a recording of the problem: http://sendvid.com/sbrvwfye
When i swipe up "the use a different app" section does not include "Lightning Browser" which is the app i want to assign to that gesture. How do i add an app that is not on "the use a different app" list?

Ok i have understood you :good:
First Method if you are on marshmallow, lollipop or kitkat follow this:
1- Open setting
2- Select Apps
3- Tap on the 3 dots icon in the upper-right corner
4- Select Default Apps
5- Select Browser app
6- Choose the browser app installed on your phone you want to make it the default browser ... Done
I don't know if this way available for lollipop and kitkat or not but i think it working on lollipop and kitkat too.
Another very simple method
1- Install Default App Manger from PlayStore or from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2140285&d=1374687303
2- After installing it, open it you will find some chooses as Camera, Browser ,etc...
3- Choose Browser
4- If you have a browser choosed as default browser then you have to press "Clear defaults" and it will open this default browser setting and you have to press on "Clear Default" in (Launch by default) section.
4- Return back to Default App Manger and Press "Set default".
5- Choose your prefered browser from the menu that will pop up to make it as a default browser ... Done
If anything you didn't understand me in it just tell me.
I hope that i had helped you

Thank you for your reply, but lightning browser has already been set to default browser by the same app you recommended. So whenever i open a link it opens with Lightning browser, this is fine. What seems to be the problem is that i can not assign this app to the gesture shown because it is not listed. It appears i must somehow list it first before it can be assigned to that gesture.

Nope bro.
First you have to install an app named "Now gesture tweak" you can get the free version of it from PlayStore or download the pro version of it from this link: http://www42.zippyshare.com/v/52829975/file.html
2- Install and open it,, when it open just press on "Select Action"
3- Then select "Open Custom App" and choose lightning browser from the menu.
4- Once you’ve picked your browser,, swipe up from the bottom and you’ll be prompted to select which app you want to use.
5- Select "Now gesture tweak" From the menu and make it used as default.
Done ... Try after that to swipe up and you have to find that lightning browser will open.
Try and tell me...

Someone help me.I install launcher pro but uninstall LG home.So now i have made factory reset and problem --NO Launcher i can't use my phone NO access to market to download any launcher ---noting.Phone is working but no interface only status bar.10x to everione who can help.
You need to go to recovery and copy back the launcher to system/apps via adb.
Or just flash a custom ROM.
Cheers
But i'm new with android how to get into recovery.10x for replay.
There is a simple solution to this problem. Switch on your mobile and press search button. Search box will appear and you can type the name of default 2.2 file explorer in the search box. Via file explorer you can go to your SD card and install any launcher.
You can do a lot of things from the search box. You can even type 'gmail' and gmail app will appear and you can configure your gmail account and then type market in search box to access market. Try playing with the search button.
Thank you very much i'm ok now

Hi guys, I've android 4.1.2 on my device and I've installed Tapatalk. Everytime I try to browser internet with default browser, and I select a forum link, I've to choose Browser or Tapatalk app from windows "Complete action using". The problem is that my choose won't be saved so everytime I choose "ALWAYS" the annoying windows shows again.
Is there a way to fix this?

You could try clearing the defaults for both applications in the settings and then try again,
Settings > Applications > Tapatalk/browser > "clear defaults"
Not sure if you have already tried this but it might help
I've either uninstalled Tapatalk and clear data in browser. No success.

I can’t figure it out.

You have to change the default launcher app
How do you change the default app?
@Sebring5
(sorry for my bad english)
1. go to preferences
2. apps
3. standard-apps
4. launcher
Kind regards
Vesaros
Install it from the Store or with the APK on your phone, then go in Settings > Applications > Default applications > Launcher.
- If you install the app from the play store
- head to settings and search for default apps
- select the home so you wish to use
Huawei disable the request to such home screens on hitting home like in stock Android. So if the new launcher crashed it will revert to the stock one and you must repeat this process
