I've been having the same problem, maybe you could go to Go Launcher forum and put a comment about it . I've decided to stay with stock launcher...or even take a try with Nova Launcher.

Ok so I have installed the Live Wallpaper packages in this order (extracted from this ROM....http://db.androidspin.com/androidspin_filedownload.asp?release=166&type=1)
1) Live Wallpapers Picker
2) Live Wallpapers
3) Visualization Wallpapers
4) MagicSmokeWallpapers
So on Home++ or Home when you click Wallpapers>Live Wallpapers, and then when you try to choose a Live Wallpaper (even one from the market) it will say "The application Live Wallpaper Picker (process.android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Any guesses?
I have one. Did you notice the Native Developement Kit for android was released? Meaning, more than likely, the live wallpapers rely on a C or C++ backend written with the NDK. So, enough said, it probably *wont* work without a custom ROM.

Okay, accidentally clicked to set Launcher2 as default while getting around the infinite FC's and reboot the phone. Now the FC's pop up without the option to change the default Home launcher.
Any suggestions?
Flash again?
Okay, I bricked my phone. Is there a method to unbrick?
I do not believe there is a way to unbrick your phone if you really have. How exactly did you manage that?

Reboot into the menu where you flash the phone. Only option was hboot. didn't want to do that. So after it read the image, menu was waiting for me to click the trackball to confirm <Action> Yes. Instead, I powered off. Now it won't power on nor even charge.
Yeah, sounds to me like you definitely bricked your phone. You can ask around more. But I Honestly do not think you can unbrick your phone. Basically its like your phone has no brain now and does not know what to do.

Okay, turns out that I dirtied the battery sensor and that was the reason for it not starting. So, not bricked!
But still I can't change the default FC'ing from Launcher2. Any way to get into the applications menu to change it? Recovery Mode doesn't work. Just a picture of an exclamation point and the android bot.
Must I flash again? Dang.
Im not going to try and recreate this one but when it loads to the force close try pressing and holding the home button and see if you can get into any thing else, if you time the close button right you should be able to get to something else...thats if anything else boots up with launcher2 set as default...
This goes to prove it doesnt work on these phones...

Tried. The small box in the center appears, quickly displays a message saying something to the effect of, "No Recent Applications" and then disappears.
BTW, other background processes are running. Examples, I get wifi notifications, login error notifications (Gmail), and I can access these and their settings, but I cannot find a way to get to the Applications Settings to change the default.
regis_star: You should be able to reinstall the 2.1 from your SD card as per the original instructions and it will fix your problem. Granted it will reset your phone but if you want it to be usable you may have to do this anyways.
Im using the Go Launcher with Honeycomb Theme and today when i turned the phone ON the Launcher is force closed.
The phone is "working", i can turn volume up and down, can acess ATK but i can acess nothing of the system cause every time the Go Launcher force close.
When i press the force close button it just appear again and ask to force close and it keep going on and on and on...
Can anyone help me??
Bump up up up up
Try to change the theme, I have no issues using go launcher. You can also remove user settings from manage apps, if you run out of ideas. Though it will realy wipe all go launcher settings.
Problem solve with a factory reset.
PS: I wasnt able to acess any options menu, i could acess only the status bar.

Don't long press an app icon. I only see that if I long press an icon. Otherwise from playing around with settings I have not come across any way to disable it.

You can install an alternative Home launcher, such as APEX launcher, or NOVA launcher. Both support home screen layout importing, so you don't have to re-arrange apps the way you have them. Widgets will need to be re-made though.
There are more settings available on these apps and you can easily set them both up to look like the stock launcher, or you can set it up how you prefer. I used to use APEX but no longer find the need for it myself.
Is anyone experiencing an issue where the default home launcher reverts to One Ui for no reason?
Also google discover being inconsistent in third party launchers?

Yep. Mine would even switch back after setting my default launcher to my custom one... But with that said, I also had so many other problems with every custom launcher that I had tried....so I just stuck with the stock, OneUI launcher (and I love Google News, so that's a good thing for me lol).

Ahh, gotcha. But wait, doesn't just about every launcher scroll sideways between pages and then allow you to swipe up to view all apps?

Yea but they all either a) keep reverting to One UI for no reason, or the discover page stops working until you restart the phone
I have issue too.
I have been update to 12.1.01.15 by using samsung app stroe,
and when I want add remove home page/widget by using gestures,
it always got crash with out any error message,
because of this situation,
I had reset my phone to factory to rule out other factor, but it still no work
Hello, I just got me a Y700 yesterday and after updating to ZUI 14, I started having a annoying bug that I was wondering if it's my update that went bad or if someone else has it too. If I try to use a custom launcher, the swipe up action to go to home or open recent apps, the default launcher's icon bar appears partially but the action doesn't work. Only happens with custom launchers, on the default one the bar appears fully and doesn't block the gesture. Does anyone else have this problem? Just asking before I do a factory reset if it's a problem only with mine. Attaching video showing the behavior. Video showing the problem

I have the global rom and I had issues with nova so I just use the stock launcher.
Yes, this tablet has issues with third party launchers -- any flavored Android ROM really starting Android 11. However the issues on this one is more pronounced since you are unable to use the swipe up to home gesture at all. Either stick to buttons or use the default launcher.
So I'm not sure if it's the rom or nova, but after flashing to the stock chinese rom, I can now use Nova launcher (beta) and it seems to function correctly.

Ahh yeah that’s worked for me for a while with alternate launchers. The gesture controls makes that floating dock come up. I wonder if we can disable it somehow or disable the entire launcher?

Ahh yeah.. makes sense. With the nav buttons, there's a fourth button for the dock on the right hand side that you can't get rid of, whether you're using the stock launcher or a custom one. Not a big deal.

They (Lenovo) probably didn't modify the stock chinese ROM too much since AOSP doesn't have problems with custom launchers, or the Nova beta launcher took care of the issues.
