can somebody help me how can i download adw of gde home replacment please::::
Go to your market on your phone and search adw launcher. Download it and let it install, should install automatically. One it's done, hit your home button on your phone and hit adw and there you go.
thanks for your information but the problem is cause i cant find in my market this device i just can find themes for adw launcher and i cant find adw launcher so what do you think....
its in there just down further, or if you search google anderweb has a site that links you to the google code page where you can download it
If you can't find it on the market its on the official website.

Ok so many of us dislike HTC's car home app for various reasons. I found that we can install the Google Car Home apk which you can find on XDA and it works just fine. You need a launcher that will allow you to create a shortcut to the app and then choose "car home" out of the available choices for example. I'm not sure how to explain that so if anyone has a better idea feel free. I've used Launcher Pro and now Launcher 7 this way. The app does not show up in your app drawer but it's there and does work. Now we can customize the icons the way we want. Hope this helps.
So this might seem like a dumb question but I've honestly tried my best to come up with an answer before posting. I recently switched from TouchWiz to Nova Launcher which I absolutely love. I just have a small issue with it. In my App drawer I have it broken down into 3 sections. Apps, Games, and Tools. When I install an app from Google Play that app does not come up anywhere. I have a CM9 Touchpad (that I haven't used in a while) but I I remember it having a section such as "Recently Installed". Apps that I just installed would come here and I could then move them to the sections I wanted.
Does Nova Launcher have something like this. Or do I manually have to add it to the drawer?
Hi,
I've tried the same setup as you, as I'm already using Nova Launcher 1.2.2.
From start I only had Apps and widgets in the drawer.
went into Nova settings, and created a new tab in drawer group called "Social".
In that group I moved: Google+, Facebook, Instagram and XDA.
Went into google play, and downloaded Twitter app.
Back to drawer "apps", and it was there.
To put it into the "Social" tab, just go into drawer group again, and add it on the list, and hit back twice.
Hope it helps.
PS.: Remember to uncheck "Hidden apps" when you create a group.
I've never used ADW, I considder it to heavy in an overloaded system.....
Using loauncher PRo I just switched the defauts and it booted using the new launcher ....
This seems a thing of the past...
settings -application -ADW - default is grayed out
setting it in hollo to standard app does not have any effect ?.
I'm using hollo launcher but can not get it to fix. as the default launcher, so jumping from one launcher in the other
is there a clear description to ERASE ADW completely from the CM system and replace it in working order by the holo launcher
-without 1000 bootloops and 1000 switchovers and system restores, and reinstalls.
I would prefer a zip to remove the system application and reintroduce the new launcher does one exist how reliablae are they.?

well if you use holo it's simple you don't need a zip...install hollo and then any launcher you like (in my case xperia launcher), then reboot, on restart the sistem asks wich launcher to use you mark the the "use this by default" button, then when you start the launcher you want, then go to holo, opemn it, go to app drower and pres the central fisical button, it will ask which launcher to use for that action, again mark the launcher you want (by pressing "use äction this by default", now you go to holo launcher, open launcher settings, and in the first menu optios search for USE DEFAULT LAUNCHER and choose the one you chose twice before, restatr (you will see the launcher you want by default). If you just want to replace ADW launcher you will find you cant case CM7 team integrated it in sistem so what you need to do is to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028884 and search for launcher2 android stoch launcher (wich will replace ADW and erace it's integration within system so when you do the steps abowe if you use root explorer to delete the new launcher it wont case bootloops case the new one is not intergated with sistem). Sorry for the long ansewer and for any misstakes in my writing

Procedure works correct for launcher but. For holo it seems to fail direct replace of adw. And launcher indirect. Continues to ask the question...which to chose...
Found holo zip only this does the trick
Thanks anyway

Very glad with the work done
But sometimes a pusher for results( nothing bad intended)
I dont know who to give credit to but found this on the internet and it works so far.
Just a warning though, I'd suggest not deleting the stock-ish theme from the list as I do not know what will happen! Use at your own risk!
Bug 1. Google chrome icon does not change back to normal. To fix the icon on your home screen: Search google for chrome icon .png -> download -> long press chrome icon and single tap when you see the paint brush, open the one you downloaded. In fact the one I downloaded looked better than the stock one. http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100301025455/gtawiki/images/2/2b/Chrome_icon.png
Bug 2. Messaging app icon does not change back also. (there is likely others)
Edit: The stockish theme it seems was this that I installed. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.launcher2.theme.rocketg3
Still testing things.
Last update, I can use themes from LG Smartworld as well now, it just takes some convoluted steps!
Download the "launcherpro" app from the play store, you don't need the launcher itself, just its "Activities" widget.
Add the activities widget to your home screen it will give you a list of apps/functions of apps that you can add as a shortcut on your home screen.
If you scroll down to "Home" one of the options is "Theme" with the subtext "com.lge.launcher2.theme.LGThemeChooserActivity". Choose that option and you'll get a shortcut on your home screen that lets you change the theme(You'll have to install some first the phone only comes with the one default theme). If you get a menu with no options make sure you have chosen the right Theme option(my phone had two different Theme listings but the subtext was different only one says LGThemeChooserActivity).

Is there a way to use a different search engine with the forced Pixel launcher search widget?
I know what you mean you select duck go for instance as deafult browser you then use the widget which is google you then search but it uses google instead have you tried removing the widget and see if it shows you a duck go one I use nova and use Google so I not had that problem sorry not much help
I wish we had a way to get rid of it all together. There is a mod here called pixel tweaks but its such a madding and convoluted process to install using substratum :/
But you can also change it if you switch to Nova launcher.
