Hi! i've installed the Cyanogen mod an my Wildfire, and i'm using launcher pro... But what if i would like to change my home app? I cant find the apk of home switcher which was really good... Does it work on the Cyanogen mod? Where can i find it? (not on the appbrain market... there isn't)... Are there any alternatives?
Go to settings- applications and then click on your home application, like if you use launcherpro you click on it and delete standard settings. Then press home and you will be able to choose homescreen..

anyway to save/backup how you set up the sense/launcher/home app? I use astro and titanium to backup, but I haven't seen my widgets/shortcuts return to where the were after restoring.
I'm really looking for sense UI, but I'm sure other people are interested in a solution for their home app of choice.

In titanium restore [desktop] htc sense 1.00 it will put all your widgets back on your home screens.. Beware if you did not install all the widgets they will still show up but only as generic icons

so as a android and DHD newbies how did you getting it looking like that and what is the android icon in the top left?
He changed the look of the phone by replacing HTC Sense with a program called ADW Launcher. You can get it in the Market. A program with the same capability is Launcher Pro. Check it out
thanks very much i will give them a go

The icon is for a task killer app - which you don't need!
I don't like the style personaly but it's original ^^
hi guys, short question...i am new to android, so if i install awd or launcher pro, do i have to uninstall/deactivate sense first? can i switch back to sense?
When a new App is installed, which changes some standard behaviour, you will be prompted which App you want to use. After installing LauncherPro press HOME Key, you will be asked, which App should be taken for that. You can also check the box for useing it every time.
When you want to go back, you have to reset that thing in Settings - Application.
So you can easily go back to Sense. Or you can uninstall LauncherPro, same effect.
thanks for the info. i will try it...
Hey guys, I have just installed ADW Launcher and set it as default but now I can not find the Home button to long press and back to HTC Sense?
Here is my homescreen, How can I find this home button to leave ADW?

It should be the same as LauncherPro. Go in settings -> Manage app -> Choose ADW and Clear Default ( if I remember well I don't have it installed atm )

Hi, thanks for sharing this with us, but why did you open a new thread instead of posting in the Show your display thread???
There's a warning in the forum rules about opening new threads when a similar one alrady exists.

I´ve accidently set twlauncher as the default one, so cant get back to my launcherpro unless i use a app to do it, is there anyway to remove twlauncher as the default home ?
Download another home screen replacement then it will pop back up. Change it then uninstall the one u just downloaded

Hey guys if i install either Launcher pro or ADW home replacements everything seems fine works great.. However when I attemp to add a widget to the screen I can't seem to get that to work. For example if you long press on the desktop and the menu comes up for you to choose the widgets menu... once i click on the widgets menu nothing happens.. No list of widgets ever show up.... Has anyone figured out how to fix this? Therefore I get stuck using the stock Home screen....Help would be appreciated, thanks.

The S7 only allows widgets in the default home launcher. No others will work. I've tried.
If you have the $2.99 paid version of Launcher Pro you can add additional widgets from LP, but not the standard Android widgets. I'm kinda hoping they change this at some point.

Put appwidgetpicker in /system/apps. You'll need root explorer.

Hi all xoomers out there. The issue I'm having is this: once I launch the ADWlauncher ex app obviously the home screens change and everything changes including theme. No problem so far. The issue is whenever I hit the home button from whatever screen I'm currently on it defaults back to the stock launcher. So then I have to open the app drawer and launch ADW again to reapply its settings and theme. How do I correct this annoying feature?

Install launcher switcher from the android market (its free) then clear launcher defaults and then finally select adw as your default.
OK I will try that out and see how it goes...

I agree...the other option is to use titanium or bloat freezer to freeze your stock home app.
or find the launcher in setting >apps and clear defaults. Should allow u you to re select adw
