Hi Guys, i just wanna ask something about default SYSTEM home screen.. i know how to convert user app to system app but when i try converting LAUNCHER 7 app to system app, i'll always get FC's (force close).. So my here's my question, ... ... .. ... ...
How to make LAUNCHER 7 as my ONLY default home screen? No Samsung Home or Whatever thing is.
For example, I reboot my system then my Home screen must be LAUNCHER 7, i mean i won't be pressing the HOME BUTTON to CHOOSE DEFAULT HOME SCREEN. In short, i want to change and remove SAMSUNG HOME and CHANGE IT TO LAUNCHER 7 without getting Force Closes.
i'm working on this last 3 months and still got force close, i'm only a little noob and must learn the CORE OF ANDROID WORLD
i also tried converting launcher 7 as system app but failed. the best way is to delete all.launchers ) press thanks for me. if i helped.

Just uninstall the samsung launcher using titanium backup then you'll have launcher 7 by default
this post is approved by the national potato safety regulation
thank you so much DEATHNOTICE01 !! You're good !! Hahaa.. i just one question left.
WELL I JUST INSTALL LAUNCHER7 AND REMOVE TOUCHWIZ LAUNCHER via TITANIUM BACKUP, IN THIS CASE LAUNCHER 7 IS NOT MY SYSTEM APP IT'S USER APP BECAUSE I SEE LAUNCHER 7 UNINSTALL BUTTON IN TASK MANAGER, QUESTION : IT IS OK IF I CONVERT TO SYSTEM APP WITH LIBS OR WITHOUT LIBS ??

Just wanted to mention that the official Android L launcher works on our Tabs
I have attached the .apk
You have to change the build.prop to get the new UI
set ro.build.version.codename to L and reboot
It works also as a system app, no FC's.
Supports 4.2.2 / 4.3 / 4.4.2
Note: You have to update/download the latest Google Search app and Google Mail may force closing
Proceed with caution, you may end up having boot-loops !

thanks
good to know, thanks!

UA,
hi i would ask that you amend your post to mention this launcher requires google search to be functional.
As per your instructions I did so and the launcher does not register as system app without google search,
and on regular install call for updated google search to function.
thank you for reading.

When you say, "set it to L", you ARE referring to the property value under where it says ro.build.etc.... correct?

Yes, you have to set the value for ro.build.version.codename to the letter L.
PHP:
ro.build.version.codename=L

What device do you have?
What Android is it running?
Did you deinstall, Touchwiz (Samsung stock) launcher?
Did you set the launcher as a system app?

gt-5200, 4.4.2 deodexed stock...
No i did not, i just installed given apk (it updated current google now launcher), and changed build.prop
anyway, i tryed to fix premisions, and delete the google launcher from the app folder from recovery, but still rebooting continued.
and while trying to fix the build.prop from the recovery, i funked the system a bit, so a reflashed the whole rom again, so I'm back at the begining... (no new launcher, but tab works fine...)

It seems like, you screwed up inside the build.prop
Or, it only works as a system app on 4.4.2, that would be bad.
I will check that, thank you for trying and sorry if you got any problems because of me.

well, i used root explorer to edit build.prop, and i didnt change anything except switch REL with L...
but i guess build.prop was screwed somehow, it managed to stay on for a while before the reboot a few times (for about half a minute), but it kept giving the fc error screens for play services, mail, etc, and then restarted again.
I will try it in a few minutes!

When first time I installed this launcher I changed the build.prob as u said....
And after a week I came to know that gmail is get fc's every time
I saw the log of gmail and came to know that the changes made in the build.prob coz of that gmail app getting fc...
Then I changed it to og value in build.prob
From then everything is working totally fine
So I don't think that we should change the codename, without changing it everything is working fine...even gmail app

soooo I used titaniumbackup to freeze and delete some apps after I had backed em up
now I wanted to perform a factory reset on the phone so I started restoring/unfreezing all the apps I had deleted/frozen
problem 1:
now I had deleted an app called lgsetupwizard which is apparantly the setup you go trough first time you turn on your device,
now it started replacing my launcher with this, and I couldn't change it to anything else...
problem 2: for one app I accedentaly clicked the delete backup instead of restore which was an app called lgslideaside I don't know what it does
and if it's important for the system to still work after a reset..
and if I can reset the device with the setupwizard still frozen? :s
thanks in advance
At this point you're probably better off restoring the phone using either the *.tot or *.kdz method.

Problem1: Can you drag down the notification bar and click the settings icon right above? If so then you could probably set from there the home app.
Problem2: I don't think its really important for the system to operate since lgslideaside is like an gesture app switching with 3 fingers you can switch apps if you slide your fingers to the other side so slideaside ;p
I don't know or you can reset the device with the setupwizard frozen I think you can but did you tryed to enable it from the Apps tab in the settings?
Else if setupwizard is really screwed and if its important then you could maybe push the setupwizard and the lgslideaside to your phone but you have to take it from the same rom you have but if you have stock then try to find a stock rom from the same android version and the the apk/odex. If everything doesn't work then you maybe need to flash the Stock android 4.4.2 kdz or jellybean in normal mode but This would be the last thing i would recommend to you since your phone is still booting ;p
Try my things and i hope your problem couldbe solved:good:
Hi all!
I'm trying to permanently disable the Samsung Keyboard. The problem is, randomly the keyboard will be set back as my default. If I uncheck the keyboard and reboot the device, it is checked again. I'd like to use swiftkey as my primary keyboard, but not if I have to change back every few hours.
Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
I'm rooted and running Dynamic Kat v4. I have chosen to use the stock keyboard under the roms settings.
Thanks!

Once you installed a different keyboard go to /system/app and add .bak to LatinIME.apk (LatinIME.apk.bak) or delete it, reboot and the Samsung keyboard will not start up again.
As you've rooted your device, you can permanently delete samsung keyboard from system - app..
Better keep a backup first of those files which you want to delete.. So later if you face any problem, so you can restore them..

If rooted, other solution after installing other keyboard (mine's swipe keyboard) is to freeze samsung keyboard by Titanium Backup.
That's what I did and works well.
Best regards
Franky
Thanks for the help all.
I couldn't find LatinIME.apk, maybe because I have a custom rom loaded or I wasn't using the right tool to look for the file. I tried file manager and even windows explorer when connected to my PC but didn't find the file.
Used Titanium Backup and it worked like a charm.
Thanks all!
Trying to help, I post here the file I'm using to debloat new 6.0.1
All seems to be working fine.
It's a heavy debloating: I am disabling also Samsung account, shop, themes (apply your preferred one before disabling). I am saving Samsung touch wiz and Keyboard, even if I am using Google Launcher and Keyboard, as it's always safe to have them.
[Update]
New file as previous one was broken.
Hi,
How do you use this .xml file ??
Thanks for your thread by the way
Buy for a couple of bucks Package Disabler Pro and import this file. Then customize at need.
Your list does not work
I click import, search the file in the folder and then nothing happens
Greets
Try the new one and let me know.
There has been an update in the app and they have changed the xml format.
Thanx
The new one work.
But there are much more apps to disable like Adapt Sound f.e.
Or see Screenshot
Greets
I bought this app, and when i tried to activate it, it didn't worked...
I tried 2 times already...
And this app only disabled or we can delete the apps as well ? Because after every reboot we'll have to do it again right ?

What is the exact problem?
This app disables only and no need to reapply at each boot.

I know but I use these apps
One note: do not disable COM.ANDROID.EXTERNALSTORAGE if you are using USB otg
When I press import it doesn't do anything, I'm I doing something wrong?
