How in the world do you switch lauchers after setting one as a default? I for the life of me can't figure it out!

I believe there are a couple apps on the Market - Launcher Switcher and Home Switcher. Also - you can go to Settings->Applications->Manage Apps->Find the Launcher->Clear Defaults
I use one called Home Switcher. Works perfectly.
Another way is to use Titanium Backup. You simply freeze the launcher you don't want ATM, and defrost it when needed.
I tried home switcher but it kept crashing so i used the remove default technique! Thanks guys!

aside from apps you can do it two ways. .
1. you can just go to your app drawer and pick the launcher you want to use (will work for all but getting back to Touch Wiz)
2. go into to settings> applications> (choose the one that is the defaulted launcher) and click clear defaults. . (bottom right in the pic below)

Is there a APP that allows you to switch off the phone instead of using the hard button on the side ?
Example: A widget - when pressed switches off the phone.
Something similar to Quick Reboot but a power/shut down app.
Thanks in advanced.
Anyone ?

Reboot Control Widget

I believe Switch Pro has that feature. But you need root for that.

try quick boot works for me has options for
reboot, recover or bootloader.. but not shutdown
there are a lot of apps that do reboot, Toolbox, toolbox to name a few that i actually have, but that's a good question for the shutdown.
Hmmmm, I searched high and low and found one hopefully, over at android forums. Gotta register first then i'll have a look later.

I was wondering if there was a launcher out there that does the same thing that TWL does where you can bring up your apps, then just press one of the overhead dots to quickly go to that particular page (column) of apps? I was told that LP doesn't have the functionality, & I played with ADW today for a bit, but couldn't find a setting...
Bottom line: me no likey da scroll-y.
If you install SGS Tools there are different variations of Touchwiz. Just go to upgrade stock apps and then upgrade tw launcher.
Yeah, I've already got the updated version installed; was just wondering if there was another launcher out there w/the same functionality. le sigh.
EDIT: Do you want that feature in the app drawer?
If by "app drawer," you mean the screens/columns that you see when you hit the button to bring you to all of your apps, then yes. I'm referring to the dots @ the top of this image:

But you aren't the first person to suggest Zeam. Maybe I'll see if that's got what I'm looking for today...
*Edit - tried Zeam, & unless I missed it, it doesn't have it, either.
Seems like every day or so I get this random shortcut as well as a notification to download some app of the day. I can't figure out what's making the notification/shortcut. Any ideas of what it can be? I posted a pic and you can see the shortcut in the middle of my home screen.

That must be an app you have downloaded. Some of them have auto run when android loads, and then they 'push' a notification message (ad) , or put a shortcut on your home screen. I used to have an MP3 Downloader app that did that. There is an app in the market that disables the auto run from these apps but I forgot what it was called.
I figured that was it, just don't know what app it might be.

Download Adpush (I think that's what it's called) and it will scan for spyware-ish apps like that and tell you which one is doing it.

Please read the title: "free TODAY only" and then look in the date the first post was posted
The activation of this app was free two days ago and maybe yesterday, so no chance to do this today

I tried it but it kept throwing up errors and crashing. I am sticking with Apex until I am convinced enough to change
Hello,
I've been looking for an app that puts a white background in the menu, like a Nexus. But without rooting or putting nova launcher.
Like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks, any info would be aprecciate it.
You could get a Nexus phone
Google Now Launcher
It' so much easer to get this.
Instead of buying a Nexus Phone, just install the free "Goolge Now Launcher" from Google.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher&hl=de
If it's not available for you look here http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-now-launcher/
Samsung Themes (Icons) aren't working then but imho it's better than stock Samsung.

Is it possible to do this without any launcher? Because with this launcher is not possible to unisstall apps from the menu app.
I just want the white screen.
stock touchwiz launcher doesn't have this option. why you don't want to install nova launcher? it has uninstall from app drawer (that you called menu) and this white card background
