Hey guys I have a quick question that's probably been answered. How do I switch launchers on Paranoid if I've chosen one as my main already? I feel like a total noob

Go to manage apps, find the launcher, then clear defaults.
Did that a few times but it didn't work

Try going to manage apps all and find the launcher you want to use. It may be at the bottom. You may have disabled it. Reenable it from there.

After you clear defaults press the Home soft key. Then it will ask which launcher you want to use, and you can set a new default if you want.

This is true as long as you didn't disable the app. If its disabled its like having it frozen. It wont show up as an option.

I did have it frozen but ended up un installing it last night due to issues with music player being garbled on my stereo

This started happening to me out of no where. Can anyone think of a solution or the cause of this issue ?
Everytime I hit the home key it will ask me to choose a default launcher. After I do, it will ask me again every time I hit my home key.
Im choosing Touchwiz, the other option is Go home since it comes with my rom.
I'm running Calkulins 2.9.2 rom.
I have uninstalled apps related to Widgets and launchers, cleared defaults etc..
How could I uninstall the go home app completely? Maybe that will do it.
Thanks in advance everyone !

First, you are checking the default checkbox before you select the launcher after pressing home right?
Yes. lol
I could only wish it was that simple.
Its not really a big deal but after a while its annoying having to push an additional button.

Well, just use root explorer or something to delete the application, or just use like titanium backup and un install it that way

I'm on apex launcher and I'm sure its a simple fix but I can't find it for the life of me! How do I stop my phone from adding freshly installed apps to the home screen?!

So I was messing with my dads Nexus 4. Is there a Launcher or something I can use to have on screen keys? I'd love to have that recent apps button. Thanks, and call me a noob or whatever.

You can achieve this with most AOSP roms by enabling the nav bar. No launcher required If you're on touchwiz then I don't think so.
Go to the play store and search "recent apps" there will be one by "factory widgets" and then add it to the homescreen and it will perform like the button.
I would like to remove the long press menu "kill app" feature in the custom rom I'm running. It removes the search phone function that I prefer over the kill app feature. A lot of roms doing it now. Any help would b appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

MOAR gives you the option to set double tap home to launch google now.
Sent from a planet far far away.
Or you could just install Nova Launcher and swipe up, swipe down, etc to launch Google Now.
I just wanna remove it from the ROM. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I'd love to get rid of it too.. Frequently part of my finger will press it unintentionally.. Quite irritating when I'm playing Modern Combat 4.
Guess its a no go :banghead:

Hmm...When I'm on my home screen and hold the menu button it still launches google search/now, I'm using the stock launcher. Maybe I'm misunderstanding? Anyhow I don't know how to make it work normal, but maybe asking your rom dev very nicely will bring about a fix for you.:good: Honestly I love the kill app feature.

Way off topic so please excuse me, just like to ask what's your player name? Curious if I've played against you on mc4, I got a bit crazy and ordered the new moga controller the other night, hope it's as good as I've heard.
I already tried asking the Dev but nothing. I'm getting used to it already so it's not bothering me as much

Every time i open an app for a long period and exit it the homescreen will go black & blank for over a minute, it really bothers me, It's such a shame for something that costs you 3 bucks
I'm pretty sure it's not my phone, never had this issue other launchers

Perhaps there is a launcher setting to allow the app to persist in memory? Phone might be killing the task after a long period of inactivity, causing problems when relaunching in the form of redraws.

Get pimp my ROM and tell it to keep the launcher in memory. It's buried in the long list of tweaks, you might find some you like
