Hi,
I newly installed ADWLauncher, got a theme and was customizing it.
Then when I changed a folder name, it crashed (The application ADWLauncher EX (process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly).
It crashes as soon as it is launched. Worse, because it is set as default launcher, it restarts when I "Force close" it and crashes again.
There is nothing I can do but to press the Force close button.
Can't do anything from computer because I can't turn on the USB debugging mode...
Any help?

Hmm.. You can try a factory reset, but that'll make you loose al your data on internal memory.
Which version?

He can't go to settings because the launcher is crashing. Press the search button, and search for market, and launch it from the search. Then download another launcher and then when pressing the home button it asks again which launcher to set as default.
If you don't have search button, you can try long pressing the home button, and going to last used apps. If there's either settings or market you can download another launcher, or delete adw from settings.
Hmmm, I think you can start the phone in safe mode, turn it off, hold the menu button while turning back on. Then go to setting, manage application, adw, and clear default.
Or you might have to take off the battery to completely shut it off if you have Fast boot mode on. Reboot like usual to exit safe mode.

Thanks
You must uninstall and re-install launcher pro.

You don't have to reinstall launcher pro. You can download an app called Home Switcher from the market. Its free

yes i have home switcher and it does not fix this problem. still everytime i press home (bottom row below the samsung). I should also note this is a froyo phone.
I have a question regarding LauncherPro also. To be safe, should I disable it, or uninstall it, before updating to JF7? I just got my new phone few days ago and still on JF6..
I switched mine to twlauncher just to be sure.
corrected by starting phone in recovery starting with vol buttons pressed and then deleted user data. had to set up phone again but oh well
technut963,
If this happens to you again, in Froyo all you have to do is click settings, applications, manage applications, on the top bar click All, then go down and click TwLauncher, then clear default. Then hit the home button and you should be asked what one you want to use and set it as default again.
I simply setup a shortcut that links to Activities -> TwLauncher and one for LauncherPro on the phone. As for adjusting the default see above.

thank you very much. works great. This site is the greatest,
Hey.. In my Samsung Galaxy GT-i9003 mobile phone i can't go my idle screen or to my home page. Whenever i press my home key a notification is always coming by saying "Sorry. The application TwLauncher(process com.sec.android.app.twLauncher) has stopped unexpectedly.please try again." Downbelow of this notification there is button to click "force close". Even if i press that the notification is keep on coming. I removed the battery and tried but still the same. My mobile is working fine but the thing is i can't open my main menu page.because of that i can't use any application. Do i need to format my mobile? If then please tell me how to do that.. Thanks.
download a new launcher from the market such as launcher pro or download a launcher to your pc and copy it to your sdcard and install it
I did a long press on the home button on my D2G to view the recently used apps. Now, I cannot get the app drawer to display my apps. Whenever I press the app drawer icon, it takes me to the recently used apps screen. How do I get back to seeing my apps in the drawer? I've tried the back button, long-pressing the home button again, and the menu button, re-booting the phone, wiping cache in stock recovery (cannot launch Droid 3 bootstrap recovery due to problem with the App drawer) but nothing seems to work! The phone has been rooted and band-unlocked (I am not sure if this has any bearing on the problem, but just wanted to mention it).

Did you get this sorted out yet? Are you using the stock launcher or a custom launcher (like ADW or GoLauncher)? Try something, download a custom launcher from the Play store. See if you can see the app drawer using it's own icon on the dock.
Last night, my AT&T HOX discharged completely. I'm thinking it might have reset and went into a constant bootloop, but I'm only guessing. So I plugged up to the charger and let it get charged about 10% before really messing with it. So rebooting the phone led me to a "frozen" screen. At first I thought it was the Picture Password Lockscreen app so I uninstalled it. No change.
I then realized it wasn't a frozen screen (although the slow start up continue after each reboot, but the home key would not function. Menu button will function, so would the back button. Only problem was that despite having the haptic response from the keys, I couldn't get to the home screen. It was just a white screen at and the notification bar at the top. The only way I was able to get a launcher to open was due to the Play Store notification that allowed me to open my ADW launcher from the app list. I installed a home switcher, but still, could not get the home button to work. The hepatic response was back, but it would not yield going directly to ADW as my default launcher, nor select one once I cleared defaults. So I dirty flashed my ROM (Venom XL 3.2.6) and again got the slow start and the inability fort he home key to bring me to the homescreen (or the option to select). I then thought the perhaps it was an issue with the kernel, but still the same thing occurs after flashing the stock kernel. I get the haptic response and the screen does a quick flash. Nothing else.
Has anyone encountered this before or have any idea what controls this function and how to fix it?
From launcher, check your hone button settings, preferences-gesture settings. Check Home key - it should say that it is set to Show home screen. If that doesnt work check to see if in pocket detection is enabled. If it is, try disabling.

Thanks for the tip, but I couldn't get it to work. Had to end up wiping data. Thanks anyway.
Hello,
I'm having an issue where I'm stuck in 'Ultra Power Saving Mode'.
I was using the google launcher, not touch wiz. I entered UPSM and pressed the home buttom, at which point it asked me what default launcher to use. I selected google and now I only have access to limited apps. It's not the usual UPSM launcher.
When i go into settings only a few options are available (WiFi, Bluetooth etc) but nothing to allow me to exit Ultra Power Saving Mode.
I've tried flashing firmware via Odin (latest 6.01) but I'm still stuck in UPSM.
Does anyone know of a way out without without having to factory erase?
Thanks
Resolved?
Hello - Have you sorted this problem out yet or has anyone responded to you on any other forum maybe?

Only solution I found was to wipe my phone
This worked for me: using package disabler pro, I uninstalled Google Now Launcher. After closing the app, I got back to the usual UPSM screen and was able to disable it.
Another way to get around this is to side load any other launcher and to choose samsung launcher when you open the new launcher.
Go into settings switch default launcher.
Go to the menu and find google app hold that app and move to the top of the screen and put that in the app info and tap Force stop now press the home button now it will again ask for the default launcher and now select touch wiz. That's it now you phone back to normal.
