Default Froyo launcher on CM6

Is there any way to get the default Froyo launcher on CM6 instead of the ADW Launcher that Cyanogen has included (or LauncherPro, or any other alternative)? I found a Launcher2.apk that I think is used on the Droid Froyo build, but it just Force Closes when I run it on my G1.
Any ideas?

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/2739-how-to-remove-adw-and-use-21-launcher/

i guess another option would be to flash super f and pull (via adb) the launcher then push it into Cy6
EDIT: same method as above but that is for the 2.1 launcher

Here is the apk.
Here it is. I had the same idea and pulled it from super F.

Wow, thanks guys, pushing that Launcher2.apk file worked perfectly!
I do have a quick follow-up question - how can I lock the new launcher in memory? (Can't find an option in Spare Parts). Thanks again!

Can you tell me how you did it.
I pushed it to the right place without removing adw laucher as i want to keep it.
This should give me the choice when i press home but nothing comes up?

[Q] ADW resetting settings

hi, i looked through a couple of forums but didnt find an answer to my problem:
its about adw launcher ex and normal (non ex) version .. same problem:
all settings are set back automaticaly sometimes..
after reboot every time
and sometimes when i go back to home screen..
every time the changelog window appears and everyting is set back..
i also cannot do a backup of adw settings (within adw settings) .. i always get an error... dont know if it has got something to do with it .
im currently on darkys rom v9.3 beta 1 .. dont know if it is an issue with the beta... but i saw nobody else with this bug.. so im not sure
thanks for ur help
greetings
exaptor

hey, i had similar trouble but with ZEAM, what i did was go into root explorer and go into dbdata and delete the one that contains 'adwlauncher' or in my case it was 'zeamlauncher' then that fixed it for me

already tried ... didnt fix it ..
zeam works perfectly .. but i want adw back

have you cleared data under settings >> applications >> adw launcher ??
or you could wipe the cache / dalvik cache in recovery.. or try uninstalling and re installing

tried everything

tried:
reinstall
delete dbdata
deleted cache
changed everything within adw settings.
zeam and launcher pro works fine.

It's possible that your current custom rom is the culprit. better ask the chef or email ADW.
I'm also using ADW Ex and never had a problem with it.

guess i got it to work:
mailed the developer this morning, finally got an answer:It's a known issue with some 2.2.x roms for Samsung Galaxy S devices, you may need to completely uninstall the app, remove all the app's data from your system (searching org.adwfreak.launcher inside /data or whatever partition the rom use as internal storage) and then install again without backups.
i just deleted dbdatabase / adw ,,,, had to delete everything with adw

jea, works fine now
close pls

How i change the default launcher?

Hello, i need to change my default launcher, in my rom its comes with Launcher Pro by default, and i want to integrate with Go Launcher instead, but, to be used to default when i install the by Open Recovery, and i removed the Launcher Pro. Any file i need to change to make the Go Launcher the default launcher ?
Thanks

I'm not sure I understand what you did. But if you installed GO Launcher and then removed Launcher Pro, as soon as you reboot GO Launcher will be the home app.
Or, if you have both installed, you could go into Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All->LauncherPro and then hit "Clear defaults" in the "Launch by default" section. Reboot and when phone comes up it will ask you to select which launcher to use (you can mark the checkbox to make it default).

no, i want to make these change directly from the zipped rom. Not when i install this ROM.

Just remove launcherpro.apk ( or whatever it is called ) from /system/app and replace it with the go launcher.apk

Thanks. I will try this.
You know how i can set too the configurations of apps and system by default too. For example, set by default to accept install of unknow sources, Jit disabled, etc. ?

i have a similar issue. i used a ROM with Go Launcher set as the default, but i prefer ADW Launcher. i installed that and set it as the default launcher...but now how can i uninstall Go Launcher? it can't be uninstalled through the applications menu (greyed out). is there any easy way?
thanks...

Try removing it through Applications > All. If not, remove it from system/app using Root Explorer.

[Q] Default CM7 Theme and layout.

I just flashed CM7 onto my vibrant...and I am honestly not sure how I managed to do it right. I have no idea how any of this works I am beyond noob status. I loved the default theme and layout that it loaded with once CM7 was installed but when I restored my information with titanium backup it brought back the old ADW theme I had been using before the fash. I am sure it is very simple but is there a way to go back to the original theme and layout that CM7 loaded with? Or do I need to reflash it again? Thanks...

Go to ADW Settings by clicking Menu button on homescreen. Inside UI Settings -- Use Main Dock Style as '3 Icons'. Then go to Drawer settings and choose the App Drawer Style as 'Vertical Plain'. That should do.
Try and let me know.

Launchers for rooted nook tablet?

When I rooted my nook this morning, I selected Go Launcher because im kinda familiar with it. Anyways, im wondering if I could switch to that ADW Launcher and if so how?

Every time you install a new launcher, remove or update existing one you will be prompted which launcher do you want to use as the default.

ok but do i have to install the launcher through the bat file like i did when rooting it or do i get it off the market?

why didn't you try it? market should be fine.

Depending on how you rooted, you should be able to open NookColor Tools. From there you click All Settings > Manage applications > GO Launcher > Clear Defaults. Or you could uninstall it. That works too.

thanks brother. ill try it.
