My Settings App ist Messed Up and now I can't change the default launcher. I used Google Launcher and it somehow changed to the dafault one. I want to get it back to Google Launcher and I think I should try to reinstall the Settings app. Thanks a lot.

When you are in manage applications, there is no home?
i cant find the advanced launch under manage aplications?
Cyan doesn't include advanced laucher... you installed a theme for it. Flash the template and it will revert back to the original.
or adb install -r launcher.apk, or replace it with the other.
yes i realized its the original but i want the original 3 screens and 4 icons per row
You can try pushing the launcher from Dwang's ROM. No guarantee it will work though. I do not know which .xml's were edited for that, but it should work
Hello, i need to change my default launcher, in my rom its comes with Launcher Pro by default, and i want to integrate with Go Launcher instead, but, to be used to default when i install the by Open Recovery, and i removed the Launcher Pro. Any file i need to change to make the Go Launcher the default launcher ?
Thanks
I'm not sure I understand what you did. But if you installed GO Launcher and then removed Launcher Pro, as soon as you reboot GO Launcher will be the home app.
Or, if you have both installed, you could go into Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All->LauncherPro and then hit "Clear defaults" in the "Launch by default" section. Reboot and when phone comes up it will ask you to select which launcher to use (you can mark the checkbox to make it default).
no, i want to make these change directly from the zipped rom. Not when i install this ROM.

Just remove launcherpro.apk ( or whatever it is called ) from /system/app and replace it with the go launcher.apk
Thanks. I will try this.
You know how i can set too the configurations of apps and system by default too. For example, set by default to accept install of unknow sources, Jit disabled, etc. ?

Try removing it through Applications > All. If not, remove it from system/app using Root Explorer.
I downloaded & installed the ADW launcher ex from the playstore.
I am having a problem setting it as the default app.
the stock kindle launcher is set as default, but when I go to the application menu and scroll down to were it says "launch by default",it says "no defaults set".
I have tried using several different home switcher apps, but they do not recognize that the ADW launcher is installed.

Did you try installing the launcher as a system app? Reboot, then it will upgrade and you should be able to select the default.

this wont matter. All you have to do is make it a system app. you can do this several ways. The easiest way for me is to download ROM toolbox, App Manager>HOLD down on ADWLauncher EX>Convert to system app. then when you press the home button itll ask to set default launcher. select adw and BOOM! Default Launcher = ADW . hope this helps ya.

No problem!
Firstly I am on Dev Rom 6.12.29 (I am trying to unlock and I keep getting the "can't verify device error").
For whatever reason weblinks automatically open in the stock browser.
When I try to clear defaults in the app section the option is greyed out as if the stock browser is not even set as default.
Any ideas how to change this?

This may work,more of a work-around than a fix (if one isn't available):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith&hl=en
When initially prompted to choose a default,select "Better Open With".
Afterwards,you should get the typical options of apps available & not locked into a default app.

When I click the link it opens with Chinese browser
I did it with my laptop. Not my Mobile. Try it.
You follow the link to download unlock tool for your PC.
You have to login to your mi account from your mobile at least once.

Do you have another browser installed? Sorry had to ask if the power is plugged in.
Then,
Settings -> Installed Apps -> Defaults -> Browser -> ?? Choose that browser?
does any other browsers show up? If not, I suggest uninstalling Chrome, if that's your app, then going into defaults click on the system browser, then reinstall chrome, and then go back and choose that Chrome in that settings.
See if that works.

This fixed it thanks.
Never saw that option before.
Hi everyone,
I've just flashed a new Mi 11 with the EU rom running MIUI 12 & android 11.
I've installed Nova and now I can't remove it!
The normal method of long press in the icon gives the menu 'share /app info/uninstall' but hitting uninstall just removes the icon for second and then it's back.
In settings I've force stopped it and cleared all data but there's no uninstall option.
I've gone the Store route and that just says is has to be deactivated but the option isn't in settings!
I've checked under Security > Authorization and Nova not listed (if that's the right place to look?)
I've tried to uninstall it with adb and that fails with 'Delete_failed_device_policy_manager'.
The main problem I have with it, is it's dock won't disable. The toggle to switch it on/off in setting doesn't do anything, so it's there on every launcher I install and on the stock launcher.
can anyone please suggest how I get rid of it?
Many thanks.
OK, finally fixed it.
Needed to disable it's admin access.
