Hello,
at the first boot the apps from the rom are arranged in alpha order, but after I install more apps, those new ones are put as they have been installed. Is there any way to sort them alphabetically?

LauncherPRO automatically do that
You can do this :
Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> Filter All -> TwLauncher -> Clear Data
This resets your home screen/application grid order data. You will have to reorganise your home screen (it will revert to factory default) but on the plus side every app in grid mode will now be alphabetically ordered.

I installed another launcher, now every time I tap the home button I get to choose which one I want to use.
What if I choose to "always use launcher X" and then I'll change my mind, the setting screen doesn't have launcher options...
Any idea how do that?
You go into settings -> apps + games, manage all applications, find the launcher you made default, go into it, click clear defaults.
Ahoi!
Finaly I installed Xposed, but now I'm facing a problem:
When I set my preferred MicrosoftLauncher, it shows only until I press Home or Backbutton from other apps or reboot.
Then again the launcher/homescreen falls back to stock Launcher3.
The dialog, asking for default launcher does not show.
Same Problem, when choosing Launcher from settings, as when starting MicrosoftLauncher by app icon.
The dialog however shows, when I choose the "set-default" option in the MicrosoftLauncher settings – but the setting only persists until reboot.
Any suggestions how to set and keep my launcher settings?

Problem is still there – any solution or hint?
I'm almost about to write some kind of script, that manualy switches to MS-Launcher after boot – does any1 know, where default launcher is stored in config-files – maybe it'd be enough to just insert the right value while init at boot…
bump…
So today, after loading an app, my Nokia 8 decided to reboot itself. After rebooting, a few things ceased to function.
The Home button no longer worked. The recent apps button stopped working, I can pull down the notification bar however, the settings button and extending the notification bar to show notifications no longer functioned.
On top of this, Google Play stopped functioning with regards to installing software and you will notice that you cannot access the developer options anymore (as well as all your personal settings being reset!)
Was at a complete loss at what to do... I managed to install the Nova Launcher from an apk file from there accessed the short cuts to the Setting Wizard and re-ran it.
You can re-run the setting with the same email address and as soon as it's finished, everything should be working back to normal. You may need to reset a few preferences (such as keyboards etc / glance screen etc) but at least all the buttons work again.
Step instructions:
- Download Nova Launcher. If you cannot from the google play store, search for it on Chrome and download an apk version
- Install it (you may get a pop up advising you need to let apps installed from chrome, go to settings and allow it)
- Once installed, click on Open. This should launch the Nova Launcher
- Long press anywhere on the screen
- Choose Widgets.
- Look for the Activities widget and hold and place it anywhere on the screen.
- Scroll down to Setup Wizard. There's two, one that's "Setup Wizard" and the other "SetupWizard" without a space. Choose the first. There should be an option under it called ".SetupWizardUpgradeActivity". It might be slightly different for you pending the version OS you have but that's what came up for me.
- Select that to create the widget shortcut then click to open.
- This will bring you to the setup wizard and then just click Next all the way through (turn off any preferences you may have in the past)
And voila. Back to normal afterwards!
Note: You don't need to use Nova Launcher as your default launcher. You can even uninstall it if you want.
Works!
Thank you, this totally worked!
I think Skype crashing and crashing the phone caused this for me. It's getting an uninstall as a special thank you.
Cheers,
Peter
Please help! I don't see any option for setup wizard!
Hello, I just wonder, if there is any way to make recent apps blurred for privacy reasons?
You could hide them completely. Go to your recent apps, hit the 3 dots next to search, then settings and untick the show recommended apps.
You get it all wrong my friend, I didn't mean the apps at the bottom, but the actual opened apps ,officially called "recent apps". I found a way via the secure folder. Once the app you wamt to blur is inside the secure folder, when you hit the button for recent apps ( 3 vertical lines) those apps appear blurred.

you can simply disable stock launcher by launching this commands with adb :
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.bbk.launcher2
but Navigation Gestures problem can't fix. You can fix Launcher problem sure

It's working in rooted mobile with quick switch magisk module previously I have OnePlus 5 it's woring fine with this method.
I got it to work on my non-rooted Vivo X60 Pro+ even when im using nova launcher, it took quite awhile to set it properly
I've replicated my steps twice and both times work for me
0) Start from the default system launcher
1) Go to Settings > Security & Privacy > More security settings > Replace the system launcher and toggle it
2) The phone will ask you to login to your vivo account. I had to create one, might as well cause its needed for the e-warranty card
3) Once you're in, enable "Allow the launcher to be replaced" and ensure the "Tap the home button to lock the system home screen" is disabled
4) Head back to Settings > System navigation and reselect the Navigation mode of your choice
5) Go back to your home and open the "Interaction Pool" app, which came with your phone by default. This will launch the 3 screen overlays. Close the app once you're done
6) Launch Nova launcher and use it to select Nova Launcher as the default launcher from the grey warning (!) message above
if (6) did not work,
7) go to Settings > Application and Permissions > Permission management > Permissions tab (on the top header) > Default app settings.
8) set the Home Screen to Nova Launcher
You should be able to use the swipe navigation gestures
