Launcher pro for hero

Does anyone know how I can change from the adw launcher to launcher pro? I'm using the cynogen mod 6.0 RC 1 and I hate the adw.

Download it from the market. Then press the "Home" key. It will ask you what launcher you want to use. Make it default.

Yea but what about the themed versions...any out there?

I actually thought the same regarding themed versions.
The problem, I assume, is that LP isn't also, and its a "lite" version with the option to upgrade - $

Like has been said, download from the market and install. Once you install, and tell your phone to use it, you can remove ADW with Titanium Backup if you want...But make sure you are USING LauncherPro first. Probably mess something up if you dont...Nandroid first to be safe. I like LauncherPro much better myself

If your clear default button is grayed out..go to the market and download Default Home and install it.Follow the directions and use it to allow you to switch to LP. No need to really un-install it until you know for sure you don't want to use it. I used it for a good while and then started using ADW for my default launcher. I really like how it works now and plan on using it mostly,but have the option to go back whenever I want..

is it launcher2 that you're talking about? I think you can rip it out from any froyo update zip

Yeah that is what I am exactly talking about launcher2.apk but I dont have the update.zip file
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Here it is, I was just looking for this myself, Went through a lot.
But to use it,
1.Uninstall ADWLauncher (with Titanuim backup because removing it from the system/app folder doesn't remove some residue it still leaves.)
2.Install this Launcher2.apk with (adb install Launcher2.apk) since i dont know how to install from Titanium
3.Press home button
I found the app somewhere on the forum, its compiled from AOSP
>> Edit: All these steps are required because if not Launcher2.apk WILL FORCE CLOSE on you and you probably dont want that <<

Thanks man ill try it when I come back from work thanks a bunch

Force closed after install. Followed The Instructions exactly.
Model: GT540
Rom: Cyanogenmod 6.1/OpenSwift 2.2.1 FroYo!

[Q]Modified Touchwiz.zip

Is it possible for anyone to create a .zip file for installation of the modified Touchwiz transparent launcher. I have tried to follow the instructions have been unsuccessful. Any help is awesome. I am running clean DJ05 deodexed. Thanks.

Really? All you have to do is move the .apk from the sd card to your /system/app directory with any root capable file manager. Or adb push. Takes less time than it did for me to swype this.

Which Rom are you running and did you have the touchwiz.odex file also. I have been able to do everything else but this one

I'm pretty sure there was a .zip file in the thread about the vibrant dock. You can't change the dock for the fascinate launcher. Its a .xml file edit or something like that.

I would like a transparent dock aswell but the vibrant launcher is as close as were gonna most likely.
Would also be nice to have a themed twlauncher as I prefer it over other launchers at this point. :/

I did too but I would rather have the ability to uninstall apps from the launcher and set the home screen to what I want it to be. The Vibrant launcher doesnt allow those things...

Thanks everyone for the input. I will look for the vibrant launcher well.

Stock GB launcher2

AOSP launcher2 for 5.6.890
Just install zip from cwm.
GBLauncher, Black status bar, % with the battery icon and extra animations: http://www.4shared.com/file/DSsT0mmb/GBlauncher3.html
Just GB launcher.http://www.4shared.com/file/p_kJVC-_/launcher2-Only.html
This replaces your launcher2.apk with a stock launcher2.apk
Works fine for me but install at your own risk. And do a backup first.

You should now have the aosp launcher. Try flashing it again.

I will have pictures up soon.
I have found out how to turn the toolbar black. To save time/trouble I asked someone if we could use their systemui.apk. I will release a second version with that as an option when I get the ok.

Thanks for this, been using modaco gingerbread launcher on the market but this one has a much faster app drawer.
Also I just unzipped and installed it no need to flash it.

Flashed three times.. no error during install... still only motoblur launcher... I see the file under system/app... any recommendations?

Using root explorer go to /system/app. Then mount r/w. Then rename blurhome2.apk to blurhome2.bak(to be safe) then(this is important) do not leave rootexplorer(you have no launcher currently) find where you have the download for this launch and go to it and click it and install it. That should do the trick.

when i renamed blurhome2.apk to the .bak version I kept getting a FC on the home application repeatedly, and it wouldn't let me back out. I used adb to rename the file back and just installed using the ASOP launcher app. worked like a charm!
It's good to see a piece of stock GB!
Thanks for all the help!

Can I flash this on a sensation? ?
Is this the 3d launcher? ?

Wouldnt having ADW or GoLauncher enabled at the time stop the force close issue until the stock one is installed? Does Home Switcher recognize it as installed once you get it all done?
Droid 1 Rooted (ChevyNo1 0.9MV Kernel, LGB2.6)
Droid 3 Rooted (Stock Kernel, Custom lite De-bloat)

When I loaded a Quick Contact widget onto the screen it seemed nothing happened. Then I realized they were invisible. I could long-hold (guessing where they were) and drag them to the recycle bin to delete the invisible icons. Weird, huh? Any recommendations on a cool contact widget?
Also, just an observation.. I was dicking with redoing my screen layout and was in landscape mode.. all of a sudden the launcher crashed and just for a few seconds I could see the motoblur launcher. The stock launcher quickly re-started and was working normally again.
By installing through the apk is it possible this launcher is just an overlay? The OP said it would replace the launcher, but I bet that's only during a CWM flash.

...
Because you couldn't get it to work with cwm I am not sure. I actually replace the file on mine. I don't touch the blur stuff. I always work from a fastboot flash, reset and and fresh root.
New post on OP. Black status bar and such.

had to restore default launcher. pdanet no longer works when this is active

Is my d3 a bad egg?
Scrolling through pages is really unsmooth for me. All stock launchers are like that for me. Obviously LP is butter for me but it seems like none of you have this problem...

All non stock launchers have caused issues for me unless you can actually change kernels and other system files. On CM on my droid Inc and inc 2 it was very easy to swap and it didn't cause issues.

Uninstall both apps from your device and just push them to system/app without installing them. Then reboot your phone.

My explorer gives me an error that it doesn't allow me to move them to system/app, any idea?

Which explorer do you use? You need one with root access.

I have es explorer with root access and still it doesn't allow me to perform that operation.

I can't get this to work..I push both apks to system/app, wipe dalvik cache and reboot my phone..but once it's on I can't find the apps anywhere... If I check the folder with root explorer both apks are indeed in there..they just don't show up
The only way I got it to work was by installing both apps.. which was not a good idea as stated here
P.S.: I'm on Owain's 74 ROM

Maybe you have to fix the permissions of both apps via root explorer.
There has to be: rw-r--r--

hmmm..and how do I do that exactly?

Long press on the app -> permissions
You have to stick read read (-) in the first row
write (-) (-) in the second row
and nothing in the third
Than there has to be rw-r--r-- on the right corner of the app

You only get fc if you install the apps instead of pushing them to to system/app
Use the install guide on my first post and everything should work
But the widget only works with the new LG 3.0 launcher
