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...

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
I need a custom ROM based on Android 4.2 (jelly bean) stock ROM with following change:
When device is first started (very first time or after factory reset), it display standard set up screen where Android asks user to select WIFI; Enter Google Account information. Once that is done, standard Android Stock Launcher is Displayed.
What I need is after the initial set up is done, I need to show user a prompt with yes or no to start another app (that will be pre-installed on the device) that is already added to the stock ROM instead of stock launcher app. The prompt need to be displayed as overlay on stock ROM.
If user says yes, this another app (instead of stock launcher app) should be started. If user says No, stock launcher should be displayed.
I will appreciate if anyone can give me pointers on what I need to do to get this implemented?
Thanks!!
Hi,
I new to the whole rooting scene so please bear with me.
I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my phone (using twrp and SuperSU) and installed LMT Launcher v2.0 RC5.
Setting it up was easy, however when I use it to launch an app nothing happens.
Well, only the wifi and bluetooth toggle actions actually work.
But setting a Pie Item to trigger an arbitrary app - this does not work (by work, I mean nothing happens when you select that pie item)
any help appreciated.
thanks,
KS
Hi there guys,
i have a big problem with my OPO.
First, i explain what i did: I'm using my OPO also in my car, so i set up a home launcher that's "car friendly" (big buttons, big clock, car logo, and so on). To activate this Launcher i use Tasker with root permissions. There's a Tasker-Task-Shortcut on my normal Homescreen, and when i press it, some things are switched off/on (for example GPS is switched on and the brightness is set to high). Also i switch the two Launcher (Default and Nova Launcher) by setting the Package State of the Default one to disabled and the Nova Launcher to enabled. If i want to go back to normal mode i press the Tasker-Task-Shortcut on Nova-Launcher which reverts all settings, including chaning the package states of the launchers again. This worked for years now, but today i activated the car mode and Tasker asked for root permissions. I thought SuperSu made an Update so i need to accept it again, so i gave Tasker root access. After that the Default Launcher was disabled, but the Nova-Launcher wasn't enabled. Then there was an empty screen, i only saw the top Notification Bar and the Soft Buttons (It was possible to use both), but no Launcher was loaded. So i restartet my OPO and now i'm stuck in a Bootloop...
Can someone help me please?? I think a factory reset will fix this, but i dont want to lose all of my apps and settings! What can i do? Is it possible to change the package state trough Fastboot, or through TWRP? Fastboot and the Stock Recovery is working fine, only if i want to start my OPO normally i get a bootloop... Maybe it's possible to install another Launcher via TWRP?
Please help me!!

Install another launcher via desktop play store then when click home button it ask for new launcher
You mean i going to play.google.com, search for another Launcher, press install, and select my OPO? If yes, that wont work, because i cant start my OPO (stuck in boot). So the OPO Play Store cant install that launcher. The only way i can think of is to install an alternate launcher through recovery.
EDIT:
Update, i used TWRP to clear the cache and dalvik_cache and now my phone is starting. Then after the "Configuring Apps" screen it's now stuck on "Starting Apps...".
Phew... fixed it myself... to anyone with the same Problem, here's what i did:
Search for a flashable zip of an alternate Home Launcher, for exmaple "APEX Launcher". Then go to fastboot mode and startup TWRP (i used OPO Toolkit). In TWRP, activate MTP and push the flashable zip to your phone. Then install it trough TWRP and clear cache and dalvik. After that restart your phone and the new Launcher should start. From now on you can switch to your default Launcher again.
Greetings
Hello Friends.
I know what could be done on iphone after jailbreaking using cydia. But from past few days I have been using Nexus 5 and decided to root it.
But I'm bit confused, what is next to customize my phone as everyone on internet claims that it gives us full access. Please share some of your knowledge.
You don't have to root to customise .... There are many apps you can install for custom experience eg. Nova launcher that I use is amazing for customising your experience and its a great starting point (but does not need root) but rooting itselfbdoes open the door to deeper more functional features using apps like titanium backup to backup literally every bit of info, app and all associated data ....and other apps like tasker that can enable full automation which allows you to do things like set your phone to unlock automatically when connected to your home wifi ...or silence your phone automatically during work hours etc...
Can install costum ROM .. can install multiple ROM's using multi ROM.
Try closed.. Google it
... Mentioning just a few

After rooting, I like to change the DPI (by making a simple change to the build.prop file). The stock value is 480. I like 422. It fits more on the screen.

technically, you don't need to be rooted to run a custom ROM (or a custom recovery). You just need an unlocked bootloader for that.
There are a lot of things you can do after rooting. I have the following installed: AdAway to block advertisements, xposed to customize my rom and apps, IOS Emoji here is a flashable zip I made: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9UOVv2yynmYeUVWY0tJNGtBanM/edit?usp=docslist_api, install MultiRom to try out different custom ROMs.
Hope you like it.
