i have sony xperia s , rooted , unlocked boot loader running cm10 fxp147
i found a launcher called atrix , only for android 4.0 +
it had a widget called circles hd , it only works with its launcher , if you add it to another launcher (nova launcher or any other one) it will say it doesn't work with 3rd party launchers , can a developer mod the circleswidgethd.apk and make it to work on any other launcher , please i love that widget a lot , the full launcher with it's widget is here : http://www.mediafire.com/?3w3uycrc7b5jg9f
the developer said to flash it through CWM but it will be installed to data folder so maybe if you extracted the files and installed manually , they will work , please try to mod this apk

Hi guys
I'm working on a them for our gs, with launcher pro plus
My theme use a lot of widget and complexe position in different screen (7)
Is it possible to create a back up for all the widget and their position and cook a rom that use all my work ?
the idea is: you flash my custom darky , and after the install and 1st boot, you have all widget in their right place in launcher pro
But A thing makes me perplexed .
When i go to launcher pro tools, at "back up homescreen ans sittings" there is a prevent message:
Due to limitation in the Android system, widget connot be backed up.

Damned
Anybody have a solution to this?
is it realy IMPOSSIBLE to make something like that with android and launcher pro?
I can believe that..
Here's a trick
When restoring with launcher pro do this :
Restore
Then when it says to restart launcher pro, reboot your phone instead
When it loads your widget's should be functional.
Try it out.
thanks for the tricks!
But is it possible to save all widget position and put them in a darky's rom , so everybody can have the same when flashing?
Well u can edit the default workspace xml or using the method described above make it so when flashing the update.zip of the rom, it places a preconfigured launcherpro backup into the /data/data folder of launcherpro and hence upon restart it should work.
^^ All theoretical
Hi guys
I want to flash a custom rom. But I dont like the default launcher (launcher2.apk) can I replace it with Launcher Pro and can launcher pro still be updateble through the market.
I deleteled the launcher2.apk from /system/app folder and added the launcher pro.apk but after I flashed the rom I saw that the market doesn't recognize the installed luncherpro. So is it possible that I put the launcher apk file in a non-root folder inside the flashable rom zip file?
Another question I downloaded the "maps5.8.0 ownhere testkeyresign.apk" to be able to have navigation support in my country. Now should I put this file inside /system/app before I flash the custom rom or should I install it later? Whats better?
Just download launcher pro from market install it and then delete the other launcher and u should be fine

To answer your launcher question, try installing launcherpro from the market, and THEN deleting Launcher2.apk, that way you will only have launcherpro, which would also be updatable. You can use android commander to do so (requires android-sdk)
And to answer your maps query, it doesn't really matter, if you put the .apk in the ROM before installing you won't be able to uninstall it in the future as it will be classes as a "system app".. that's the only difference.
Thanks for the answers. Looks like the best way is to install the new launcher and maps after I flashed the rom

put your maps in the /system/app if want to use forever if not should be in /data/app folder if your custom rom has this feature so you can uninstall this later- read about /data/app feature also if your custom rom has root feature or you have a rooted phone it doesn't matter - you can delete this apk with Root Explorer by example
regarding launcher apk Market doesn't recognize this because is signed differently than the apk from Market -let us say I download from Market an apk and decompile it... to compile back and make that apk I will use own signature to accomplish this task so is that Market will say yeah ! a new app there because this is signed by me not original developer or can be signed in Eclipse with debug signature- also this signature is not ok

Yes. Just when u put the new launcher apk in system/app folder, remember to change permissions before u reboot.
Howcan I change the launcher before flashing rom (stock rom) ??

About this thread of sir HCFROYD. The chobits have go launcher (the default launcher) right? So what did he do to make go launcher not active in active applications?
And im asking what if i flashed this
Chobits Go Launcher EX for all densities, (will replace current launcher as default) just reflash to switch to other Launcher.
*the most stable version of Go Launcher EX (skinned) that supports all lcd densities.
Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?t5m2a7t0lm3xsql
on my stock rom , will it make my default launcher change to go launcher and make that home launcher permanently as my default launcher??
Im on stock rom dxlc1 thanks for your answers.
upppppppppppppppp
That is only for ChobitsDigitalis ROM nd not stock rom,
You can simply install any launcher nd set it as default on stock.
After installing, press home button nd u'll get the option to set it as default..
Else go to manage applications and clear default for any other launcher u ate using now.
P. S. You can post such qns in the faq thread ;-)

What the guy said above will work.
Or if you dont want to set default, open the launcher that you just newly installed. Then minimize it and uninstall your current default launcher. The new launcher will be set to your default.

1. For Changing Lock Screen Images You Need To Change The Framework-res.apk or U can try Other ways!
2. To enable Widgets Root UR Phone And use EXPOSED FRAMEWORK!
3. Use NOVA LAUNCHER!
Sometimes not appearing of widgets is due to installation of app on SD card.
try moving the app in internal storage.
