I'm on the latest Starburst ROM and on whatever kernel the ROM comes with. Anyway I noticed something today with my phone. Everytime I go to the Market and click the Home key I get a prompt for choosing my launcher. I check the box for use as default and choose Go Launcher.
Anyway this is a recurring issue and I even tried a reboot. Any ideas?
Thanks in advanced.

Runs smoothly but I noticed that when I go to change the default settings in the stock browser from "mobile" to being able to see the actual webpage, the new setting doesn't go into effect. Even after a reboot. Same thing with the calendar. I want it to open up on "month". I change the setting but still opens in "agenda". Any suggestions? I don't wanna reflash again. At least for a while.

Haven't noticed this issues. I've been running the ROM for a few days now. Try to wipe Cache and Dalvik a couple times and reboot. See if that helps.
I did that. Even did a goal new flash. Nandroid. Wipe. And then reinstalled it. I got rid of the original calendar and replaced it with the HTC stock one. So problem solved there. But I still can't change the "mobile" versions of the web pages. Annoying!

I'm using LauncherPro Plus on my stock but rooted Epic Touch 4G, but any time I use the built in (hold-home button) app switcher it clears the default setting for the launcher app and I have to reselect LPP and set it as default. How can I avoid this clearing of the default launcher app?
Also, any suggestions on how can I replace the stock app switcher with one that shows more than 6 apps?
Thanks in advance for any advice...

Just downloaded launcher pro to test this and I cannot replicate the issue. I downloaded LP, hit home, clicked set as default and chose lp. Once lp is loaded I then held home for the mutlitasking screen, navigated around a few apps, hit home once and back to lp I go..

When you install a new launcher typically the first time you hit the home button, it will ask you to select the launcher of choice. After doing so before hitting okay or accept there is a box at the bottom to set as default. That has always worked for me.

Yeah, I set this (and reset it) but it doesn't stick if I use the app switcher. Weird? I didn't have this problem running LPP on my OG EVO on CM7.

Weird, thanks for testing dude. I wonder if there's something I have installed that is conflicting with the launcher preferences? So, are you all still seeing the default Samsung TW app picker that only displays a few app icons and has the link to a task manager?

Yeah. This isn't controlled by launcher pro.

Ah, turns out it was a conflict with QuickDesk (even when it wasn't set to be the default home app). Thanks everyone for your help.
It's no longer available in the play store. Does anyone have the apk that I can download?
You can get it here.

That link installed a version of any cut that keeps crashing. I have a Verizon galaxy s3 rooted worth stock jelly bean. Is there an updated version? Is the app device, or ROM specific?
Here is the playstore version. It also crashes on mine.

The Google play one says not found even in browser. The one from Tewlman's dropbox says the same as the others; after I click "Activity" The app crashed with "unfortunately anycut has stopped"
Try clearing app data and cache via app manager, then uninstall, boot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvic, reboot and reinstall.

That didn't work. I used ROM manager to clear the caches after I uninstalled the app. It had no data to delete before I uninstalled. Am I the only one with this issue? Are there any good alternative apps?
There is no newer version and it crashes on jellybean if you run it from the app shortcut. It will work if you drag a widget from the widget tray to a homescreen.

It isn't listed as an available widget when I long possessed the home screen. See the attached. I also tried am app shortcut on the home screen which ended with the same error
This is what I see when I open the widget drawer (or long press on the home screen and select add widget)

Try with a long press to (touchwiz) home screen, after select "apps and widgets", find it in the widget list and drag it to home screen. This is the only way I can use it without crash. I use it on SGS3 mini with stock JB 4.1.1

I just tried. it crashes right after I select "Activity" I also use Go Launcher, but for the purpose of your test, I switched back to Touchwiz.
Here is the one I use. I have used it on stock and custom ROMs. You have to use a home launcher that supports shortcuts, like Apex or ADW. Just long press on a home screen and when you get a popup select shortcut then select Anycut. Then select activity and scroll through the list. There are some that will force close, but I have found that a lot of the system shortcuts do work.

I uninstalled anycut and installed the one you attached. I tried the shortcut with Go Launcher and also Touchwiz. Both have the same result...after clicking "Activity" it says "Unfortunately Anycut had stopped working"

I use it with Apex. I cannot speak to the others as I have not used them. You should also try fixing permissions. Permissions being off can cause FC.

how do i create a shortcut to a button within an app that is not an activity? i assume that is what the "make your own" thing is for
Got used to nova launcher (and bought prime) since I was on my s3 with liquid smooth, but now being back at touch wiz I keep getting a message saying that I need to clear my app defaults. Makes me choose which launcher to use each time.
Had this problem on touchwiz with my s3 but went aosp and didn't have the problem again. Kinda liking tw on this phone so I'd like to stay with it if I can figure this out. Already tried clearing all defaults and then tried going into the specific apps and clearing the defaults. No luck. Help?

Why not FREEZE the launchers you do not want to use with Titanium backup, that way they will still be
there in case you ever want to use or mess around with those other launchers.
By doing that your default launcher will always be used without a popup box asking you what to do.
If you want to use another launcher which is frozen just unfreeze it...
I know that normally you should not have to do this, but if you just cannot figure it out it does not hurt
anything to freeze a launcher.
good luck!

If you switch to the stock (TW) launcher does it still happen?
Also, in Nova, double tap a home screen to bring up the menu. Scroll to the bottom, tap advanced, tap restart Nova. If that brings them back you likely have an issue with Nova.
Yes...tried that...they just don't want to live here anymore.. I have to go to playstore for the app I want and open it from there....apps are installed but just not in the drawer...they will stay on the home screen if placed there but not in the drawer....never seen this before....no new changes to rom or downloads....weird

I (personally) would make sure my apps are backed up with TiBu and reinstall the rom.
Yeah I agree...just really didn't want to go that way but probably have a glitch....such is the life of a flashaholic...thanks for verifying what I suspected.

One more thing, if you haven't already, make an update zip in TiBu by long pressing the recent apps thing while in TiBu... Not from the menu. It makes a zip that only installs TiBu and its settings not the apps. This is better (imo) as sometimes update zip with apps can be a little squirrely.
When you get it working right let us know.
Good luck!
Cool beans....thanks...will keep you informed...
