Hi all..I am using launcherpro plus, and after I get my phone all set up....everytime I select the home button, it takes me back to stock launcher, I have even set the home button to do nothing when pressed, and it still sends me to the default stock launcher, can someone that uses launcher pro help me with this?....Thanks in Advance....very weird deal.....
Did you clear the default home? Set launcher pro as default?

all i did was launch home switcher app, and click on launcher pro, and choose set default...is there something I am missing?...thanks a bunch...Dirtylarry
Do it the old fashioned way, just to be sure.
Go menu > settings > applications > manage applications. Find HTC sense, then go in and click on clear defaults.
Hit home button, select the launcher you want, making sure you have ticked 'use as default action' or whatever the option is.

Update: I cleared the defaults in the settings/applications/manage/htc sense/...but when I do that and hit the home button(which normally would ask which home launcher to use), the phone fast reboots, and comes back to htc sense home stock launcher....hmmm.....
Hmmm indeed.
I'd try reinstalling launcher pro.

Try installing another launcher to see if launcher pro is the prob, or something else

Anyone know how to access the app manually and NOT just in the messaging portion? Its the exact same app on my Epic 4G so it should be a stand alone app....

It's probably hidden by the launcher. Try searching for it in the Google seach widget, or use a differennt Launcher.
Download launcherpro form the market, hit home, use the sidekick launcher as default, then while on the homescreen, hit Menu>add>shortcuts>activities>Voice recorder or Sound Recorder( I think both are included, but you are looking for sound recorder).

Yesterday I installed launcherpro plus on my Sensation. I love the 4x6 grid and smoothness.
Naturally I've selected launcherpro as default when pressing home. However, after a while (possibly after approximately 20 home clicks) it pops up the selection screen for sense and launcherpro. The setting for the default launcher has been lost. I reselect launcherpro as default and it's fine again for a while.
I've tried go launcher, and the same is happening. Sense is not playing along?

That's odd. I have been using LauncherPro for a couple of weeks and it has never forgotten my default launcher.
Try backing up LauncherPro data (in LP Preferences) and then clearing the defaults for the homescreen settings (in the Application Settings) then clearing the data for both Sense's launcher and LauncherPro No idea if it'll work, but it's worth a try...
Did you check make this the default action when it asks which browser? If an operation has more than one option ie Sense and LP android will keep asking until one is set as default.
Thanks for the options, but I still have this problem. Of course I select 'set as default', the issue is that after a while (it seems completely random) it pops up the question what launcher I's like to use. It doesn't remember my setting for Launcherpro.
I've cleared all data for both Sense (2 processes/apps with the name HTC Sense) and Launcherpro. No luck. Annoying. Running 1.28.401.1
Are you using home switcher from the market?

I used it and was able to switch/reset however removed it later because I thought it might interfere. Didn't help.

I'm having the same exact problem too since yesterday. Can't remember if i've updated any app that might have caused this. Mine is more frequent, after selecting go launcher as the default launcher, it pops up again after a few seconds.. Plz help anyone... I'm using Sensation XE with Android Rev 4.1.13 rom with go launcher..
Are you using backed up settings that include the Calendar? I tried bringing my settings over from CM7 to Virtuous Inquisition and it was the calendar causing LP to bomb out - I found this out by starting afresh (deleted app data through app manager) and adding widgets one at a time.
Shame, cos I prefer LP's calendar over the stock one. Bit annoying that LP doesn't get any updates anymore (woulnd't mind seeing some new transition effects).
okay i found out what was wrong... i uninstalled all my recent updated apps using titanium backup, reinstalled them one by one and found out that its was one of my updated app called 'football kaki' that was causing the problem.. i reinstalled an earlier version of that app + data and everything went smooth.
i think the newer version of that app had some disagreements with go launcher..
well guess i hav to settle for the lesser then, at least i dun hav the annoying default launcher pop ups...
mine also happen to suffer this problem...Go launcher btw.
any more idea on how to find the culprit is?
There's a chance launcherpro is crashing, it gives you the option to use sense if it ctashes

i wonder if anyone has this problem. Android creates a shortcut whenever I move the app from app drawer to the desktop. however, for some reasons, some of the app shortcuts are gone! they are replaced with default android icons...
I can fix this problem by deleting this default icon and drag the app from app drawer to the desktop again. but the same problem comes back after i restart the phone... what's going on?
Are you using stock sense or an alternative launcher?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Hello, I have the very same problem (on top of the touch screen issues and rainbow artifacts on some widgets...).
What I do is that after reboot I switch the scene to an empty one, load it and then come back to the sense scene where all my icons are (personalize, scene, apply). It works for me.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
yeah it's a sense problem. It tries to load the icons when the SD card is not mounted yet and doesn't retry later.
You have to make sense reload. Changing the theme does that. Dis- or enabling any htc widget with titanium backup causes a sense reload as well.
Thanks for the solution.I was also having the same problem...

Yep. I got it with Desktop Visualizer (use it for renaming apps with long names e.g Dolphin Browser HD). I found out it's because the app is installed on SD.
is there one out there or can someone make it.
looking for a power widget like the stock one for the sensation. but can it include mobile networks on/off and maybe remove the gps icon.
I think there is Power control or something like that... just search in the market, you get to see many...i use the Quick settings Tab, no need to waste space on the home screen.
Try widgetsoid, extended controls, powerplus

Ok I downloaded the Regina 3d launcher app. Now I want to change my home button back to the default app. But I cant do it without uninstalling this app. I don't want to uninstall it as it is the best I have seen. Any ideas on how to change it with out uninstalling it.

Try going into settings>applications>manage apps and select Regina and clear data. That will forget the settings and revert back to default home selection
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
no luck. Just started Regina as the default program again as if it was the first time.

Instead of "clear data" pick "clear defaults" under "launch by default."
Next time you hit the home button it should ask what you want to use.
That app let me launch the original home screen but still would not let me change it back. But I was able to do what I was wanting to do. Thanks!
