Ok so it is best to put launcher pro and beautifull widgets on the /system/app directory so that it can be loaded from memory instead of SD card.
So I tried to copy the launcherpro apk from /data/app to /system/app after putting the system directory in RW mount with root explorer.
But it doesnt seem to happen and after one minute the phone reboots and nothing has been done ...
Probably because launcher pro is running..
Question 1: How can I write the launcher pro and beautifull widgets apk to the /system/app directory
Question 2: What happens to the settings/data from launcher pro?
NoOne ?
Is there no one that can help me?

any help will be appreciated...

Usually it should be the normal procedure. After downloaded and install from Play Store, press home button and it should prompt for which launcher to use and option to make default launcher.

you could use root explorer , mount r/w and remove the launcher apk from system/app, thus removing it from the system, wehn i used to change launchers in cm7 i did this so i would prevent any confictions with the other launcher, also move the launcher apk to the system/app

True but may i add, you need to move the apk to system/app then installing it before removing default launcher.

We all have a favorite launcher to use on our Android device. Apex has been my favorite launche, and I think many Android user prefer Apex Launcher than any other.
If you’re on a custom ROM and want to set a different launcher as your system’s default and only launcher, then all you need to do is push the APK to /system/app.
REQUIERMENTS:
I)ROOT ACCESS
2)ES EXPLORER
3)APEX APK FILE
Let’s try making Apex as a default launcher.
1)First you need to have a file manager that has root permissions like ES File Explorer.AFTER ISTALLING IT GOTO SETTINGS
TICK THESE OPTIONS
i)UP TO ROOT
ii)ROOT EXPLORER
iii)MOUNT FILE SYSTEM and BACK UP SYSTEM APP
2)open your file manager and copy the APEX APK file that you’ve just downloaded from official site, then go to /system/app AND PASTE IT THEIR and if have ANY OTHER LANUCHER LIKE NOVA,ADW ETC U CAN DELETE THEM IN THAT /system/app
3)THEN RESTART UR PHONE U WILL HAVE APEX LANCHER AS DEFAULT...!!!
IF U HAVE ANY PROBLEMS DO POST ...
(IMPORTANT :- 1)COPY THE FILES WHICH UR DELETING BECAUSE IF U WANT TO USE THEM AGAIN JUST PUT THEM IN /system/app AND RESTART)
Or just install Apex Launcher, click the home button, tick "default action" and choose Apex Launcher...
You forgot this: you need to set permissions to rw-r--r--. Otherwise it won't work.

I wanted to try a custom TW launcher from this site,so I downloaded and extracted it.For safety reasons I made a backup of th inse original apk and I installed zeam launcher from play store.I deleted the original TW apk and the odex file.I the copied the file and when I tried to paste it guess what? "Insuficient space".I copied the original file back,I fixed the permissions to rw-r-r,I restarted the phone,but now if I press the home key it automatically goes to the zeam lau launcher's home screen,I installed another launcher but when I press the home button the original launcher is not listed there.How can I make it work again?
Hello everyone!
I have a problem with a Chinese tablet
this tablet is not bad as hardware but an awful launcher. They started with the simplest solutions, or change the launcher with others on the market. but every time you restart the tablet returns the old one.
with root explorer I entered the launcher between system app and tried to give the other as the default launcher. no way. each reboot resets.
I tried to move away the default launcher (hklauncher.apk) so that he could not use it in startup and so on every reboot ask me which launcher to start and once selected, then takes it and it works. but decidedly uncomfortable that every time you have to choose the launcher.
Now the way 2:
or I find which file system change to start an alternative launcher rather than hklauncher.apk. but I have no idea what file to edit (I found in the frameworks folder khmanager.jar and unzipping files inside there are a lot of files for each type of setting but have not found nor if there is one that defines the launcher.
change the apk of the alternative launcher: if I change the package name from blablabla.apk in hklauncher.apk and I insert it in the app system probabily it will start by default. but with apk tool you can not unzip the apk so that it is usable.
anyone have any idea what files I have to modify to change the system launcher?
or is there any idea how to change the package name of the alternative launcher?
thank you so much
