I would like to use a different Launcher on this Box. I use Square Home which installes fine. I change Square Home to Start App - reboot the Box and it always asks me what Start App I want to use -even if Square Home is set as Start App.
I even did a Factory Reset of the Box - but this did not solve my Problem.
Any Suggestions what is wrong ?
You can freeze the stock app, either in app settings or with another app like link2sd.

hi,
i'm on Cyanogen 7.1 with Golauncher installed.
Everything runs fine except for the default actions.
I loose them on every reboot (just as if it did the "clear data").
strange is that it kept the info before, now loosing it.
Is there a way to force the device to keep the default action ?
thanx
Try home switcher and make it default it may work.
Ya i too have the same problem:--(

Did you move the app to sd?
No its on the phone...
Has anyone figured out how to change the sound when you tap the screen? I tried downloading a different keyboard, hoping it would at least change the sound of the keys being pressed, but it didn't.
Have you tried altering the settings for the standard keyboard? Language & input, configure input method, settings, keyboard sounds (enable / disable)
in both keyboards, i've disabled the sounds. it still ticks every time i tap a key, button, or app.
Tricky... have just tried disabling the sound for this message and it worked - quiet keyboard. Seems snappier, too!
Not sure tbh - I'd recommend doing a factory reset if you haven't already, and maybe try a reboot after toggling the enable / disable sound?
If I do a reset, would I lose the apps and settings I've customized already?
Edit: Okay, I was able to change the sound of the keyboard. Now its just the selecting of apps and pressing of the back, home, menu, etc
Edit again: aaaand now I found how to disable that. Sweet.

I have a Lenovo P780 dual sim since 1 month, bought on Amazon Germany, but shipped from China.
Have rooted it and added many other apps and deleted them when I didn't like them. I use the Apex Launcher. It has been perfect up until today. I wanted to move new app icons into the dock area underneath the normal home screens. I bought the Pro version of Apex Launcher because I thought the added functionality would allow me to do this. Whether or not this upgrade is the source of my present problems, I do not know.
The problem I now have is that once I unlock the screen, the normal home screen is now blank. If someone calls me the phone app lights up and I can pick-up and talk normally, later check my contacts, see the call and text logs. After the call, pushing the "Home" button briefly no longer works to bring back the home screen. Pushing the "Home" button for a couple of seconds brings up the running apps and lets me close it, then when returning to the "home" screen its blank.
Swiping down from the top allows me to seeing the settings buttons such as WiFi etc as it was before. I can click on the "Settings" icon to open the settings, but if I try to change the "theme" the app responds every time that it has stopped working.... Swiping back up returns the blank screen.
HELP please !!!

Hi. It seems to me that your Apex Launcher have one big proble. Try to install free version and see if this have this problem. Iff not this is a problem... Iff the free Apex have the same problem you need to change your launcher. Search another one on the market.

Sorry Stumpy, but I cannot use your advice. Since I cannot see my home screens, I cannot launch any apps. When I power on my phone I have no access to any apps. However if an email arrives, the GMail email app starts and I can then read and send emails. If I receive a telephone call, the native phone/contact/messages app starts and then I can also use these apps. But I cannot start or see any of the other installed apps, unless it has been prompted to start from outside my phone.
I have backed up all data and applications to my SD card using Titanium Backup before this problem started. I have reset the phone using the internal red button, used the settings menu to restore the data and apps, but nothing helps. I can change the Wallpaper using the Settings icon I can see when I swipe down from the top of the phone but when I try to change the Theme, the Settings app responds with "Unfortunately System UI has stopped". (This always happened since the phone was new - so I then downloaded Apex Launcher to go around this problem)

Hi again. Please tell me what rom do you use. Do you have custom recovery like TWRP or CWM?

Hi Stumpy
I managed to get my phone back!
I used my desktop computer to send myself an email with a link to another launcher (Go Launcher). When the email arrived on my phone I could then click on the link which gave me the chance to open the link using Google Play and then install the new launcher. Once the new launcher was installed, I could see everything again, except that I then needed to put all the apps back in the right places. Wow am I happy !!
Thanks for your time and trying to help me!!

I am glad that you manage to resolve the problem. Be carefull next time when you spend money on apps. Try free versions first time and install custom recovery for your phone. They are the best thing for backup.

Weird problem on poco launcher, it's not showing options when I long press apps like xda , kernel adiutor, greenify etc on the home screen. It only shows app info there. It used to show before but not now after I did a dirty flash of the MIUI 10 stable rom over the same.
Is there an option in the settings to enable it ?
I'm really addicted to this. Need help!!
Hi everyone, I own a TUREWELL T95Z MAX, with Android 9 and would like to change the default launcher.
I downloaded various launchers such as ATV launcher or TVLauncher. They work, only that when I turn the tv box off and on again, the old launcher appears.
If I then navigate and press the HOME button on the remote control, the launcher that I set as the default appears again.
NB: In the settings I set the preferred launcher as "home app".
Is this normal?
Thanks

is there perhaps a kind of setting that starts the luncher at boot ?

I add that the name of the manufacturer launcher is: "Mediabox launcher".
But what if I eliminate it? what would happen?
Is there a default Andoird 9 launcher?
@microinfo
The launcher that comes pre-installed is a system app means get automatically started after Android has booted. You only can replace it by another launcher of your choice if you freeze and/or delete it what requires device's Android got rooted. WARNING: If you do so then you'll see a black screen and nothing else, you can't open and/or launch any app anymore.

I would just like to replace it with another launcher. And prevent the manufacturer from starting.
ps:the device is already root
I dont think this is normal. New launcher should take over.

instead there is something strange. Some settings that the manufacturer has entered. It is as if it had set the luncher as an app that starts at the starting.
does anyone know how to remove the original launcher from boot andoird?
