Just starting this topic because today my apex launcher updated and now it won't work it keeps force closing and/or the screen goes black for about a minute. Was wondering if anyone else is having the same issue thanks.

First, questions belong in q&a.
More, about your problem. Try going into application manager and clearing cache and data for apex launcher. Be warned this will erase all your settings.

apex issue
Hi
I love the Apex Launcher and the added freedom on the Android system but have realised that now the application manager on my Galaxy Note 8 is not working. When i first drag the widget to the screen it shows how many applicatins are open but after i close them it doesnt update itself and doesnt work from then on... Any ideas? Please? :crying:

I created a folder and changed dock apps. When I restarted some time later folder contents changed and dock apps had also changed. I also had difficulty naming folder. I've since gone to go launcher.

I think you have misunderstood OP's post. He said he is having problems with TW4 app drawer/folders. Has nothing to do with Go Launcher
I am suffering from the same problem too with stock TW4 running KDD firmware. Everytime I reboot my app drawer would change...namely the content of app folder would get filled with other apps...and my carefully arranged apps will be disorganized.
Well why then he has to say he had it since gone to go launcher and never named TW?
... as go launcher has this problem...
BTW what about a TW data cleaning?

I have the same problem. It happened after I uninstalled an app. The Android Market kept crashing when I went into My Apps. I restartet the phone and the app drawer got completely reshuffled. Every restart leaves the app in same (dis)order, its not an random shuffle on each restart.
So how do I perform this TW data cleaning?
Greetings, sorry for the noob question but my last android phone was a Samsung Moment and that had just the stock launcher. If I download and install a different launcher like say Launcher Pro, will the Touchwiz launcher still run in the background? If so, can I use Titanium backup to freeze Touchwiz or will that cause problems?
Thanks.
Not sure if it will run in the background but I freeze it with titanium and am fine so far. I completely removed it from my sgs4g with no issues.

Thank you very much. Just not feeling touchwiz.

Feel free to freeze or uninstall.

Does anybody know why the phone app on my LMT launcher does not work? I'm running wicked v5.1, stock deviant kernel. Is there a workaround? Thanks in advance... :beer::beer::beer:
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
Were you asking how to get the lmt pie control to work included in wicked rom? You have to enter the settings and start lmt and then pick where you want it to open from. I hope I helped and if I read it wrong let me know of maybe I can try helping again.
No I'm sorry what I meant was I know how to use it, it's just when I add "phone" as one of the quick apps, it doesn't bring up the dialer?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
Hmm I see I just tried it and it didn't work for me either. I'm thinking of just installing the app itself (not using the wicked one) and see what happens.

Possible Solution to phone dialer not working on LMT launcher pie

Hello everyone! I am using LMT 2.0 and also have the same problem (the phone app does not work from the pie), but I think I have found a solution.
Under the list of normal commands about the pie, select "app" then select "CONTACTS" from the list of applications. This must be some kind of bug, because instead of opening the list of contacts, it opens up the phone dialer app, instantly.
(hopefully this works on other phones) (I am using a custom rom on jelly bean)
So I found this theme on the internet...
It can be found here. Only thing I can't install Google services so maybe someone smarter than me can figure it out

Uninstall the play services already on your device and install the new one.

I was able to install this launcher on my OGPro running CM 10.2. It would not work on stock.
Here is the link I used to get the files and get it working:

installed this and it looks awesome but search doesn't want to stay fixed after doing the language setting trick. I change the settings and it works great after that but after exiting the app it reverts back with force close. to be honest I'd rather just have the always on okay google search feature with nova prime launcher. the google launcher has little to offer in terms of customization.

I understand. For me the integrated Google now home screen and smooth operation are great. I just set the voice search language to English, Generic. No more force closes.

Hey there,
Just tried to install the new Google Now Launcher / Google Experience Launcher on my phone. I am running stock first of all.
Tried almost all apks for the new Google search and Google home app. But when I select the Google launcher, I will just end up with forced closes. Changing the phones language and/or Google search language just won't work for me. Same problem with all settings and apks.
Anybody here using or having used the new launcher on their Gs?

Please try this. If this does not work then it probably doesn't work on stock.

Maybe try the new launcher that Google posted and see how that works? It's currently only for GPe and Nexus devices, but I'm sure it's been leaked on the internet SOMEWHERE.. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher
I actually have had the same problem as the OP and would like the launcher, so I will be searching myself and seeing how this works. Will keep you posted.

No i will never try to flash an Lg, never again...
Strangely enough, I have the same problems. I want to know how LG made this not work without issuing a single update. -.-
Sorry to disappoint everyone, but I don't think that the new launcher will work on our phones until it is released for everyone via the Play Store.
KitKat only
I think the Google Now Luncher only works on KitKat Roms
