Is it safe to remove wolf launcher manager? I installed the wolf launcher before you do that you must install a launcher manage. I decided I didn't want the 3 party launcher, so Uninstalled it. But when I went to delete the launcher manager, said any adult profile on this device will be removed? Is this true? Work around?

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.
If I already have ADW Launcher EX, and there's something in the "standard" ADW APK that's clobbering one of my EX settings (the high-density icon hack), can I simply remove the standard ADW APK from the CM7 ZIP to install newer nightlies?

yes, that is what I do. I'm no programer or anything, but all I do is right click and open the zip with out uncompressing it. just go to system/app. now you can remove the stock ADW and add your new launcher. I'm not sure if this is the right way, but it has work find for me in the past.
Can anyone tell me,
The LauncherPro can be uninstalled in this ROM?
I wanna to install the LauncherPro Plus but i must uninstell the older one first.

I have already tried to use the super manager to remove the LauncherPro from the system file and instell the new apk,it still doesn't work and the phone became something like bricked.

Simple, delete launcher pro.apk from /system/app, put launcher pro plus in there, rename it so that it has the same name as the deleted launcher pro, then change permission of launcher pro to rw-r--r--
Then reboot
I just can't figure out the whole rooting thing. But I hate the KFHD's interface. Can I change it, if so, how?
Go to the Amazon App Store, download Easy Installer. Then go to Google and search for a Go Launcher HD .apk file of any version. Transfer that apk file to your storage on the tablet, load Easy Installer and install the launcher. Afterwards, go to your apps and initialize the launcher.

Didn't work for me....
That tells me nothing. WHAT didn't work for you?
I downloaded Easy Installer, got the apk and installed the package. After Go Launcher installs nothing happens. The option to "open" is geryed-out, my only choice is to click "done". After that, Go Launcher doesn't appear in my app list.
Then that launcher isn't compatible with Android 4.0, or at least with Amazon's OS. Apex, Nova, and ADW works fine.

I just wanted to confirm that this method creates an icon where I actually boot the launcher? I've considered the non-root methods to install an alternate launcher but it looks like they all are kind of a "soft" install where hitting the home button actually takes you back to the Amazon OS (requiring you to re-open the alt. launcher.)
You can set it inside the launchers. Nova, for example, allows you to change the function of the home button, when you press it, it asks what launcher is your main one, and when you select Nova, every time you hit the home it will return to Nova.
And yes, it does create an icon in your app drawer.
So i used Root Junkies tool to install nova launcher on my 5.11 amazon fire. I dont particularly care for it. Is there a way to remove it. The app is not able to be uninstalled from the settings.
The batch file made it a system file like the Amazon apps. It's not a bad idea to have two installed tbh.
Anyway before you try and remove it, make sure you've another launcher on the Fire as the batch deletes the amazon one.
Easier to just add another launcher from the store, then pressing home should* give option to switch to it. (Now Launcher is a pain though and for that you need to go to Settings, Apps & Games, Manage All applications, slide across to all tab, find Nova launcher and Clear Defaults. Then press home).
You can delete Nova in a rooted file browser (ES file browser with root permissions maybe), or a system app deletion app, or from shell. You could edit the batch file if you've the file of the new one you want, put it in the pc directory with all those other files and then run it to install that and wipe nova.
How could you get the stock fire launcher back on?
Grab the file com.amazon.firelauncher.apk from OP in this thread
