Moved to general as not android development
are you rooted?
it sounds like your launcher program is not working. If this is the case you can try logging into your android market account on your computer and pushing ADW launcher to your ROOTED android phone.
I am not sure if this will work with a galaxy S device, but I had a similar problem with my rooted mytouch 3g. I installed a custom ROM that had an outdated version of launcher pro. Thus no home screen, and almost no way to get to my applications. I went onto android market and pushed the ADW launcher to my phone. It downloaded and installed, and voila, fixed the problem.
You can give it a try.
yes I'm rooted.
curious...
did my suggestion work? The one issue is that your interface will no longer look so much like touchwiz.
You might be able to find that original apk somewhere on xda or somewhere else, and then reinstall it.
ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro are both excellent alternatives to the stock launcher that comes with the phone.
Thanks Man! Here are the Instructions!

Thanks Deckard your idea worked! But TW launcher reinstall was unsucceful...I installed Tag Home Launcher and that went great! I had to:
1. Power off Phone.
2. Press Both "Up" And "Down" + The power Button to get to Recovery Menu.
3. Delete all User Data/ Yes
4. Reboot phone
5. On the Tutorial it showed me a link so i clicked it which opened the browser or one can press the search button and say "go to " google dot com"
6. once browser is open go to "market dot android dot com "or simply go to the market web page or simply google tag home launcher apk
7. install then complete the wizard. it will give you the option to select which launcher to use.
8. Done!
But for some reason i still cant use it.
i have to use the Tag Home. Is there anyway to delete TWLauncher?

hii friends. I accidentally deleted stage UI. So now when i made hard reset I'm not having any launcher at all. Please help me out in restoring the stage UI.
Thanks in adv
since you didnt include any information about your phone, Rom, status here is hard to help you but any of these should work out
1)Go to the market website https://market.android.com/ choose a launcher and click install. enjoy
2)i dont know how far a phone boots without a launcher but you can try to press and hold the home button once booted and see if you see apps like market(to install a launcher) or settings (to navigate to your list of instaled apps)
3)if your phone (whichever it is) has a search button - press it and search for market. start market. then install a launcher app
4)if you have chrome to phone installed try pushing yourself a market link to a launcher and install it
5)send yourself an email containing a market link to a launcher and install it
6)try to adb push stageUI APK or any other launcher APK to your phone. reboot.
7)flash the same rom again. if you use the same rom you have installed you probably wont even have to wipe
if any of these helps you please tell me / press the thanks button so i know it worked out
Hi, Iam new so maybe this is very stupid question but I spent few hours trying and could not figure this out myself.
So, I have ZTE Blade with rooted Android 2.3.5 I want to install there custom theme, but in every install guide is said "go to settings -> themes" or "go to your theme chooser app" and so on... I don't have the options of choosing themes in settings and every app i tried from android market for theme choosing did not work for me so..
Could you please tell me how to install custom theme on my phone? I appreciate every answer. Thanks a lot.
I somehow managed to install a theme (find theme in .zip and update zip with clockwork recovery mode) the theme changed but i still cannot choose between those two and what the theme did not change (and i want it to) is those icons in bottom of the display - now i have now i have phone, menu and browser.... iknow i can have also sms there and something else i cannot remember.... any ideas?
*BUMP*
Can anyone please give me some advice?
Hello Friends,
I have Android rooted device LG E400. I want to change default home launcher. i.e: I want to run only my application while device is booted. Even default home launcher screen of my device should get replaced with my app. I need complete control on device and disable all buttons functionality(Home, back or menu).
I need these features because my app is automated and don't except any human interaction through buttons. When my device gets booted i want my app to start and perform automatically. Any suggestions for this. How can i achieve this? Any help???
Thanks in advance...
Enjoy rooted device and fill your requirements in rom toolbox pro...
+ many others...
I got xposed and installed g3 tweakbox 2.2, enable the hidden launcher menu, but any changes I make go back to default as soon as I back out. Reboots don't help.
I'm on a marshmallow stock based Rom.
I don't want to use an app that's always in the notification bar.
If there's no other way, I'll use nova launcher. Thanks
