[Q] Can't clear defaults on Emui 3.0 - Huawei Ascend P7

Hi guys,
I recently updated to Emui 3.0 and I'd like to use Nova launcher as my default launcher and not the huawei launcher (it sucks), but when I go to the apps menu to clear the defaults for the Huawei launcher, it's greyed out. I tried to force Nova launcher to be the default launcher but when I press the circle navigation button it still returns to the Huawei launcher. I also tried rebooting into what I think is the Huawei bootloader menu to clear the cache, but that didn't accomplish anything. Anyone have any ideas ? Thanks!

[Q] Possible to use Launcher Pro instead of ADW in CM7?

Is it possible to use Launcher Pro instead of ADW in CM7? (currently using nightly 41 w/ 041811C OC Kernl + ALSA) If so how do I uninstall ADW?
I tried uninstalling ADW using Titanium Backup but the force uninstall didn't work. I assume because it is prebuilt into CM7
Thanks!
first what is ALSA? and yes you can just download it and click the n and pick launcher pro.
uninstall adw using uninstaller for root or through terminal, if you cant uninstall it using the normal way

I use Zeam, but the result is the same. AFTER you install your Launcher, click the "n", then check the box to make the Launcher the default and select Launcher Pro.
Once your favorite launcher is the Default launcher, go into Titanium Backup and 'freeze" ADW.
Ive always found it best to leave a launcher in the backround. Especially helpful if you screw up and its un-runable
I use the Home Switcher app, it allows me to easily change home screen launchers and set defaults. Been useing it on all my devices since Eclair, its quite handy.

1.) Root your phone and install root explorer. Try to deodex your ROM first. I tried on odexed stock ROM and it still works fine.
2.) Install whatever launcher you want.
3.) Do a Nandroid backup (Just in case)
4.) Go to /system/data and delete away touchwhiz30launcher.apk (and its odex file)
5.) Go to /data and find your installed launcher. it should be com.something
6.) Move using Root Explorer to location of touchwhiz30launcher.apk
7.) Long press on your new launcher.apk and set permission to rw-r-r (important! if not you will end up with a bootloop)

i have a galaxy ace plus gt-s7500 , rooted and busybox installed. i have found the best way (worked for me) was to install titainium backup +pro key , then i installed my prefared launcher (holo launcher)press home button and select as default launcher, then did the following using t/b. open backup and restore , scroll down to holo launcher and long press on it select "convert to system app", when this is done normal press on holo launcher and select backup, when this done, normal press holo launcher again and select the following "restore" then choose option "app+data" , when this done then finally long press holo launcher and in the menu you should see" integrate update into rom " select. thats it. important, check the launcher is working ok then when happy ,uninstall tw launcher using titainium backup. the above method works with quite a few apps . but could vary from phone to phone so be careful. t/b will also freeze apps which is very useful to check if apps can be removed. as with everything its all experimentation so dont blame me if it does not work on your phone.my converted apps also update via googleplay with no problem

I'm also using Nova, works perfectly.
Anyway do this:
Install Google Now Launcher
Tap home button and it will ask to set default launcher.
If incase it doesn't then goto default launcher app setting and clear defaults.
Then tap the Home button again.
Is any one using Snapchat in Moto E4 plus? Coz I am having lag in Snapchat.
Why google now launcher when you have the pixel launcher..
Ok , i found a solution similar to your problem . Open Google app Info and clear data and cache and force stop , again open launcher info and do the same reboot and all should be good you will be able to Replace the stock Launcher from that to google Now Launcher

Recents button stopped working after upgrade

I'm on the China rom and just updated to the newest realmeui with beta. I've realised the recents app isn't working.
Is it because I removed the default launcher and using Nova or something else?
Seems like the recent only works with OPPO Launcher. I've now reinstalled the launcher... but now i see "no recent task" no matter what I do..
Ok.. I've re installed launcher. Changed to system launcher restart. Change back to Nova launcher.
And works now.

Nova Launcher permanent on Fire 7 gen 9 (with Root)

Hello,
i have root my Amazon Fire 7 (gen.9) with this Manual.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/orig-development/fire-7-2019-mustang-unbrick-downgrade-t3944365
Now i want to use the nova launcher permanent.
I download the nova launcher from the Google Playstore and install it.
No i have the problem, that after reboot or after i press den home button the standard Amazon Fire Launcher automatically is present.
In the Nova-Settings its shown that it is not fixed as standard. But i cant change this under "standard apps". there i just the Browser-App.
What should I do that the nova launcher is standard.
Thank you very much
Greetings

Easiest thing is to uninstall or disable the stock launcher. Package disabler from the playstore worked well for me. I moved on to lineage now though..

What is the name of the stock launcher? Where can i found the stock launcher to uninstall is?
I wanted to backup and uninstall the stock launcher with Titanium Backup. If i search within Titanium Backup with the search term "launcher" it it displayed:
"Home Pages 1.3...."
"Nova Launcher 6.2.12"
"Pixel Launcher 8.1.0-4429924"
"Pixel Launcher 7.1.2"

For launcher change, install a 3rd party launcher (lawnchair2 for example) then use this to disable the stock..
com.amazon.firelauncher
I use package disabler to shut it off, that way if you need it, it is still there.
Or you can do from a ab shell PM disable com.amazon.firelauncher

I dont found the com.amazon.firelauncher.
But i disabled (with Tintanium Backup) the App "Home Pages 1.3.203256.0_23012710". After that i could choose between the "nova launcher" and the "Pixel Launcher". So i choos the nova launcher and it worked. Even after a reboot.
I hope it stays that way
Thank you very much.
Greetings
