I have a problem lately and its getting worse. After using the internet for a little while and then exiting Samsung's Twlauncher always restarts... It very annoying but i could live with that.
A couple of days ago i installed Chaton and now everytime i send or recieve a message, launcher restarts and its becoming very annoying! I know its a memory problem but this never happened prior to installing Gingerbread.
Anyone having same problem? BTW i have stock firmware without any root or modification.
Thanks

I have the same problem as well. Everytime I exit from the browser my launcher will restart. I find it annoying as well. I'm using adw launcher. Got this problem after I updated to gingerbread.

what rom are you guys using? any custom kernels or lagfixes on this rom or previous one?
You could try Go Launcher EX, I liked it a lot.
Additionally, you could try using a root explorer and browse /dbdata/databases and erase the folders for the launcher you are using, sometimes this fixes problems with apps not working correctly.
Did you backed up your launcher with Titanium backup or similar and then restored data and app? This causes problems when restoring data and not just app.
I'm using the stock rom from bell. Switched to go launcher yesterday. Still have the same problem =(

Hello fellow xda members. I had a problem the other day. I installed sgs tools and tried downloading a different launcher. It loaded the launcher fine but I wasn't satisfied. I tried restoring it but it gives the error "folder not found." I was wondering if anybody knows how to reinstall the built in default tw launcher and if I can possibly restore the layout.

I'm sure you could find the apk with a search.
Are you running a custom rom?
No, I'm runnin default android 2.2 froyo. Rooted, but nand backup doesn't work either. A few months ago, I tried backing up with rom manager, but after rebooting, their still wasn't any backups availible to restore. When I boot into system recovery, it doesn't even open cyogenmod reovery.

CM revovery? Stock 2.2? I'm confused.
I tried. Google doesn't show any, only custom launchers and I don't want that.

Bump...
Did you manually check the sgs tools folder for the backup of your stock launcher?
I've been using the gingerbread launcher from the market and I really like it. Just putting it out there to think about it.
Sorry I meant clockwork recovery mod. THAT didn't work or I wouldn't be asking for a way to reinstall default tw launcher. Thanks for all the current ideas

If you still need it, I attached it for you. Just drop it in the system/app folder. Good luck.
Never mind.someone else got it.
OMG THNX FOR ALL YOUR GUYZ (or girls if any) HELP!!! THIS IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

Thanks for all you guyz help ( again) but it didn't work so ill just stick with a gb launcher

The one from the market is super easy. And if you accidentally delete it, it's there to reinstall
This is the one from my phone. Dont know if it is what you are looking for as i am currently running Continuum, but good luck.
I think you might need the .odex file as well since I recall seeing that you are running stock 2.2. Did you delete that file?
I'm not sure. How do I check?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
You can use Root explorer or a similar app and navigate to system/app. See if there are .odex files for the corresponding apk's. If the one for the launcher is missing than that would cause the issue. What happens when you try to run the launcher? does it just force close?
edit: I was able to find the apk and .odex file from a stock 2.2 build. Just drop it in hopefully this works. Just unzip and extract the files manually.
I can't find it. All there is is the .odex for the tw launcher wallpaper

hey guys i just wanted to get rid of ADW and with stupidity and assumption i went ahead and used Ttitanium pro to uninstall ADW launcher. i rebooted my phone and now its stuck at loading. its been loading for 30 minutes now and ive tried twice so far. being a new user im slowly learning everything so give me a noob break im behind on the droid stuph. i have speedmod kernel clockwork etc.
Speedmod kernel on cm7? You sure about that one? thats a froyo kernel...
i fixed it i had a recovery image lol. how can i get rid of adw though and use launcherpro isntead?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Install launcher pro first. Don't know how you thought it would boot up without a launcher installed at all.
yea found out the hsrd way lol

Do you made a clean flash? Wipe, stock firmware, kernel, rom? If you did, try wipe everything. If this also does not help, i think its the best to reflash the the whole rom as mentioned above!
That only happens when you are using TouchWiz4 (that modified version for SGS).
Uninstall that and get something diffferent, say a Nova Launcher or even ADW.
Im using launcher pro.
I already did a clean install before. If i will do it again it will be my 3rd time. Is upgrading to ics will help?

Could anyone kindly make stock 4.0.4 (preferably, if not 4.0.3 is fine) launcher ZIP file for Nexus S 3G that would replace third party launcher on custom ROM?
Thank you!!!
Could anyone help me out? I'm stuck in FC problem because of a custom ROM and I already re-flashed multiple times in the past few days so I would really hate to do that again...

Extract the launcher from a 4.0.4 Rom. Replace the one in your system with root explorer. Remember to set permissions correctly.

Well as of now, I can't proceed beyond lock screen... so I can't copy any files using Root Explorer. It force closes several different apps constantly like Launcher, Wallet, Book, etc... I have to pull the battery.
So I was looking for a flashable zip that would replace (get rid of) the custom launcher.
That's what I did though.
I was using nuhetri-reloadedv 3.0.1 ROM. It asked me to choose between APEX and Trebuchet launcher... it worked fine for couple reboots.
Then it just force closes everytime. So I reflashed it and did what you asked, but it still force closes........ So I'm back in backed up stock ROM for now...
I have an earlier version of Nova if you want. It's a flashable zip.

Put a new from on your SD card via PC. Then give it a clean install. And you're done.

If your on custom rom dont use appzorter they are in conflict with each other. To organize your apps in custom rom use its own setting, you dont need appzorter. Appzorter is an app for stock rom.
Just took appzorter off rebooted phone and now I'm missing apps.....it is strange!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Check if the apps were hidden by the launcher
Yep no hidden apps...when I use the stock launcher to organise the apps some disappear put when I use appzorter the missing apps appear again...weird...
