Well I know many of you guys have complain about why Cyanogenmod Rc 1 has the Adw Launcher, some say they prefer Launcher Pro or Stock Froyo, I tried to install so many Launcher2.apk but none of them worked with the Evo till I found this one. after I installed this Launcher2apk , I deleted Adw Launcher and my phone has been working perfect, no FC , Nada!!
Also I did some test
Linpack
Adw Launcher-35 Average
Launcher Pro Plus-32 Average
Stock Launcher-38 Average
Fps2d
Adw Launcher-51
Launcher Pro-50
Stock Launcher 50

Go into the Root Explorer. Root Explorer to me is the easiest way.. After your in Root go to System- Apps- ADW Launcher.apk<------- DELETE THAT ONE!!!

This may seem like a dumb question but what the heck does the stock froyo launcher look like lol. Can you post a screenshot? All I have experience with is the sense launcher and now the adw one that comes with CM6.

How did you tried to install it???
I found that just installing the Launcher2-1.apk and just say Yes when ut asks you to replace it will install. You might want to make a backup the ADWLauncher.apk from /system/app.
I have to to say the stock launcher seems to be snappy I like it.. The only draw back I might see is if you are looking to install one of the themes that are coming out. You might have a problem since they are themed with LauncherPro or ADWLauncher and not the stock Launcher.
Keep getting force closes
.....nice. gonna try this.
every time i download its corupted?
naaa its working fine, actually i unistall the AWD LAUNCHER AND ALL THE APKS I dont like b4 installing the rom!!

The stock 2.2 launcher was already on the non rooted 2.2 leak
It wasnt on mine. The stock launcher was removed with the last update, the one before 2.2. If you clear defaults or use a home switcher app it is not there, unless you manually install this APK

How to change miui launcher with Go launcher or Vice versa.
I am using cmiui ROM and i want to change miui launcher with Go launcher.
I have install go launcher and its working but miui launcher is there
I want to remove miui launcher and install Go launcher and optimize the ROM so can any one guide me for this kind of issue ?
If any one can tell me steps what to do for customization of ROM then it will be grate help to me.
Thanks and regards ,
Cheat.
sorry for my bad english
if you are using go luncher as default then the miui launcher is not eating much ram. (once you restart after installing go launcher)
you can however also remove launcher.apk from/ system/app
i am too using go launcher and am happy with the setup

Yes bro i too knew about that but when he said he used dat launcher i thought it must be available on Store
thanks guys i'll try launcher pro
Im not getting i just delwted the tw launcher in sys/app and copied the launcher pro but its just closing when i clear the memory in task manager..i made it default rite then why its closing
1. u can install LauncherPro from playstore/apk and then press home button and then check the box "set as default"
2. or u can try push LauncherPro to system/app using rootexplorer and then delete ADWLauncher then reboot. dont forget to Mount as R/W
Download 'default app manager lite' from store and then select your default launcher

OK if you are having issues resizing the wallpaper in the gallery that came with the new ICS leak then I've got a fix for you. I tried changing the code of the gallary3d apk in both ucle2 ics and 2.3.5 gingerbread with no success. So I found a gallary apk file on the net for android stripped the code made some minor tweaks installed and bam I could resize wallpaper again. OK let me give you some info you need to know...
First you will need the apk file from the link below. And you may want to download apex launcher from the market and here is why...
1. Using Apex launcher you have the ability to resize wallper and wallpaper scrolls again as you flip thru home screens. Apex launcher is a free download from the Google play store.
2. With stock touchwiz launcher that came on the phone after you install the apk file below you will have the ability to resize wallpaper only the scrolling wallpaper as you flip thru home screens still does not work in touchwiz and since I don't use touchwiz I'm not gonna try to make it cause touchwiz sucks anyway.
3. With go launcher, tw launcher, MX home and other launchers on the play store I have no idea. Untested on launchers other than those listed above. So try if you want and report if it works on other launchers if you want.
I have tested this on my skyrocket and it is working. Also tested it on my wife's Samsung INFUSE 4G running gingerbread and it fixed her wallpaper resizing issue to. Also fixes wallpaper scroll on the Infuse using touchwiz and go launchers but that was on the Infuse only. WALLPAPER SCROLL DOES NOT WORK USING TOUCHWIZ ON THE SKYROCKET WALLPAPER RESIZE ONLY UNLESS YOU USE APEX LAUNCHER. Just wanted to say that again so I don't get 1000 messages saying my wallpaper still won't scroll using stock launcher.
Now one more thing if you install the apk below like normal just open and install and you still have a problem resizing wallpaper then try this... you must be rooted and have an app installed that lets you get to the root folders. I use rom tool box lite free from Google play but you can use whatever root file explorer you choose. Open up root explorer find the apk you downloaded below and copy it. Then navigate to the system/app folder and paste it there. Use rom manager also free from Google play to fix permissions reboot and it should work. But try the regular install method first. As I said this is working for me on both the new ics leak on my skyrocket and on gingerbread on the Samsung infuse...
Thanks to xcraxydx for providing a couple of apks that I needed....
Download APK here.....

I'm using Apex Launcher, not rooted, and ran this apk and wallpaper is still not sizable. Is this for rooted users only?
Edit: Just saw in the last paragraph must be rooted. Play on players.

If you install Nova launcher and select it as the default launcher, does it stop the phone's stock one running (freeing up resources)? Thanks.

No, it just defaults to your chosen launcher instead of your stock launcher. Stock launcher is still there in the background. Disabling or removing it causes problems.
