You need to delete the launcher pro files from dbdata and data folder. I hope you have one alternate launcher to navigate and root explorer or similar to do so. After that reinstall the apk after placing it on the system/app folder.

Download GO launcher from market, download Root explorer or some file manager that gives your root access. then find all the instances of Launcherpro and delete them. Install the launcherpro again. Will work. I solved it like this.

I accidentally Deleted my Launcher app using titanium backup. Is there anyway to reinstall the launcher? I really don't want to have to reflash the whole rom. I'm just using a rooted stock rom.
i suspect you just need to push the launcher.apk to the appropriate destination. search around for instructions on how to do it, and a copy of the file itself
you can download helix launcher from the market. great launcher I use it all the time. I prefer it to the stock launcher anyways.
You can also just reflash the rom your using again, it wont delete any apps or anything and it will relace the stock files.
you'll need to find the Launcher2.apk from the Rom you use. just extract the Rom and search the extracted folder: /system/app . once you find the apk file, you'll need to push it to /system/app on your phone via adb or the Su file manager (available in market)
I did the same thing...
I have a Milestone 3 (Brazilian Droid 3) and after installing a new home screen, i deleted the standard motoblur home screen (not without a backup of course). I didn't know that a factory reset don't reinstall the standard programs of Motoblur, so now i have a handset without launcher.
I can't access by ADB, due the factory reset deleted my predefined configurations and I can't access the market to download a launcher.
The only thing I have is the lock screen, the notification bar and a black screen below the bar. When i plug the USB i have the options to access the Motorola Phone Portal, USB, Windows Media Link and Charge only.
I tried to find the base rom to reinstall, but i couldn't find. Tried to find a shortcut to use by the keyboard, and got the same result.
I'll keep trying to find a way, and if anyone could help us i'll be glad.
Thanks
I would have hoped that the OP has managed to get his phone working after a year and a half.
Have you tried using the desktop android market to push a launcher to your phone?

Hi, I have been flashed the CM6.1, and just now i tried to use root explorer to install some modded widget by the putting them in system/apps method. But it doesn't work anymore. After i have put the .apk there, i go to the add widget page and i can't found that specific widget. It works perfectly when i am using my stock 2.1 rom. Can anyone give some possible solution? Appreciate it so much !
Do you set the permissions correctly?
Do you restarted the phone after past the apk in system/app?
I guess you have to reboot and then click on the apk through root explorer and select install also before they appear on the menu.

Oh yes. You guys have figured out the problem. I didn't set the permission correctly therefore it doesn't work.

Simple, delete launcher pro.apk from /system/app, put launcher pro plus in there, rename it so that it has the same name as the deleted launcher pro, then change permission of launcher pro to rw-r--r--
Then reboot

First, just install ESexplorer and Holo Launcher. Reboot and you should get a choice of whether to use Holo Launcher or Xperia I think, just make sure its working. Then preferably use adb from recovery, but you can also use Link2SD or similar, to delete /system/app/MyFiles.apk and /system/app/XperiaHome.apk (check the exact name on that one).
U can download the es file explorer and install then later u can delete my files app and u can download the holo from market then in the home screen u can press the home button u will get two options from which u can choose holo and select use as default.
Bro always keep backup don't delete the apps that work properly

To the second step: You can just press the home button.
first install titanium backup (or any other similar app).
install xperia launcher and ES Explorer. Make them system apps using Titanium backup. Now backup my files and holo launcher usin TB again. then uninstall them. those backups dont take much space on your sd card but can be of real help sometimes

Try installing ES file explorer. Go to tools,set root explorer to On and grant it SU access. Then,select mount r/w and set system to read/write. Then go to /system/app/ and delete the MXHome launcher and put in any other launcher.

If you can get to kindle settings then goto the launcher that is crashing under I think it was apps or running processes, and clear its defaults that it is associated with, you should be able to choose another launcher by hitting the home button once you do that.
