Hi,
I installed an application, which did not install correctly and causes the launcher to enter an endless reboot loop. The OS and the phone seem to work.
In order to back uo my data, I would like to access the setting and allow the Kies to log in the phone and for that I need to run settings, or to install backup complete and then format the device and for that I need to run "Google Play".
Can anyone tel me how to launch applications w/o the launcher?
Thanks,
Avishai

i'm afraid you cannot use apps without a launcher
do you have root? if yes, download tw launcher from our wiki page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001)
use root explorer or something like that.
put your app to system/app
rebbot into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik
fix permissions.
should work, you have now tw launcher
No Launcher
Yes, but W/O a launcher, how do I do anything?
I can only launch the dialer, contacts and SMS before the launcher reboots. I cant access any application.
Is there a dialer shortcut or key cobination that bypasses the launcher and allows me to launch applications with the volume/power key or a similar debug trick?
Thanks
Boot to recovery
Mount internal memory
Put a zip with a launcher as suggested above
Flash it
Now you will have 2 launchers

But than I loose my data.
I wanted to run setup or "google play" and install a backup utility before flashing the device.

If you flash a zip that has ONLY a launcher then you will not lose data. That means don't do a full wipe, just flash the zip and clean cache.
Are you rooted?

Install a launcher from the Google play website on your desktop. It'll automatically downloaded and installed on your phone.

I purchased the phone with a haked flash, with some applications that seem to have rooted it. I am not sure on the status when I boot.
In recovery mode, I have clockworkmod version 2.5
As for the tw_launcher, its for I9001 not I9000. the zip file is only 1K size. Will it work?
Most launchers come as apk. How do I generate a ".zip"?

I will try it later, thanks.
I am not sure - I think it was 2.3
There are 3 versions, which will work for me?:
GB version
only deodexed for now
- tested on JVU, JW4 and JW5
TouchWiz4-v2-deodexed.zip
mirror
CM7 version
- tested on CM7.2 RC1
CM7TouchWiz4-v2.zip
mirror
ICS version
- tested on CM9 20120508-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd
ICSTouchWiz4-v2.zip
mirror
Go to settings scroll down to the end and choose device information or something similar and check what android version you have.
Edit Ohhh sorry you can't boot. Silly me.
I suggest you look around at pictures of GB ICS or JB and try to find out which one you had.

I'm not sure if the launcher will install before the phone reboots but you can try. When it's installed, you will get an option which launcher to use when you press the home key.

Yeah you don't need to reboot. It will install like a normal application. As amerkiller said just press the home button and it will give an option of what launcher to install, just click on the new one.

He said that his phone automatically reboots, so I'm not sure that the market will finish installing the launcher.

Oh I missed that bit. If its a bootloop then its something more than the launcher as even with no launcher it will just be a black screen with the status bar.

Have you tried wiping caches? Not familiar with your Rom, but if a wipe isn't part of the install script (in thread it would say something like you can update from previous version without a wipe) you could also flash the Rom again. You could also try to clear the settings-app data/cache from the android app manager.
Tried a full wipe and reinstall didn't work, read in the threads for the rom it's a known issue for 5.5 thanks though!

Hm, maybe factory reset - with that you will lose all installed apps. But you can try some other browser, like Opera, Chrome and similar.

You can install those apps again. And you will lose sms, contacts... Backup it.
But it is not 100% guarantee that it will work after that.
Before doing that go to application manager, find browser, and in it delete its data.

If you rooted your device and removed the core apps from the system/app folder, they won't back...
So, it depends, I would do a backup and factory reset, there a chance to fix this problem.
If it doesn't fix the problem the another option is download a stock firmware and reinstall it with Odin...
