why do you want to remove it? halo locker should disable it, does it still pop up?

well i think if you were to uninstall the default locker it would brick the device so maybe try another lockscreen? i know go lockscreen takes itself as a launcher so the stock locker will not popup but still since you kill everything, there must be a custom app that kills specific apps or apps you dont want to kill.

Ok, I use WidgetLocker pretty much as my homescreen, and so I have a blank homescreen which I only use to access my app drawer if I need another app not on my lockscreen.
I am wondering if anyone knows if there is any way possible to skip the homescreen and just go straight to the app drawer.
Try looking into alternative launchers. vLauncher is probably what you want; it functions as solely an app drawer.
Seems kinda iPhone-ish.

That's kind of the point, isn't it?

No, not iphone-ish, it's because I use widgetlocker/lock menu AS my homescreen, and I wanted to unlock straight to app drawer because I really have no need of a launcher now. I only unlock if I need an app not accessible through my lockscreen. I'll check out that vlauncher.

VLauncher is your best bet, or else you'll have to make an application that does what you want.

Or you could use a shortcut/slider on Widgetlocker to open a Folder Organizer folder with all of your apps in it. I'm on CM7 & use the long press search to open my folder with all of my launchable apps, so it's like an app drawer anywhere.
Ok I've checked out vlauncher and that seems the best I can do for the time being, it serves it's purpose well enough. Thanks for the help guys!
Sony live with walkman WT19i
rooted 2.3.4 (0.58)
is there any way to hide apps from stock app drawer without disabling them?
i dont want to use any other launcher
From my knowledge (two months on android development) when you run new app this second one goes to background and calls method "onPause" so if developer want to do something in background it will work. You have no influence on it. And if you call back already runned application then it starts from last saved state.

Use go launcher.. In the app drawer settings there is option to hide apps..

Yeah ! it works, not fully but yes, for a few apps it does work
Has anyone learnt to read in the meantime?
Have you found a solution?
How about the 'incognito' installation in parallel space
You could try using the 'incognito installation' mode in the parallel space app. Would that work?
Ok.. So here's the issue. I'm using Nova Prime.(This might not matter which launcher you use) And I noticed that if I uninstall Nova and use the stock launcher again, it shows shortcuts of things I have downloaded. Problem is most of these I already uninstalled while using Nova. But they still show on stock launcher. Is there a way to stop the Note from creating a shortcut icon on the home page so this doesn't happen? I really don't want to keep using a different home launcher knowing that in the background it will be creating home page shortcuts on the stock launcher. As I said when this happens they are present even If I uninstall the app while using a different home launcher..
Am curious to see if anyone else can recreate this issue. To do so, install something from the play store while using a different home launcher(Nova would be best since its what i'm using) and make sure to set Nova or whatever you are using to default then uninstall the app and uninstall the launcher. You should now see the app icon shortcut still present on the stock launcher and when you press it it says app not found or something.
Anyway thanks . Keep in mind if you uninstall your preferred launcher you will loose your settings so do it only if you want to. Either way I hope there is a way to stop our tab from creating "desktop shortcuts" in the background of other launchers:silly:
i think u can disable "create shortcut in desktop" in play store's settings

Auto add widgets is the one, if you uncheck it there will be no more shortcuts on homescreen when you download from playstore.

Hello to all,
I dont know if someone did create this post earlier cause i did not find it, correct me if i am wrong.
I am owner of nexus 5 and i have an issue with third party launchers like nova launcher.
I installed recently nova launcher and when i pressed home button it asked me as usually which launcher i prefer
to have as default. I have chosen nova as always..
But when i use google search for example and then i press home button again suddently the window is poping up
again on which launcher i prefer and i choose nova all the time...
This story is too annoying cause it cannot remember that i said always to be nova as default.
If someone has faced this problem your help will be apriciated...
Sorry for bad english if i made mistakes...
Thanks in advance!!!
did you double check in settings > home to see if nova was sticking as the default launcher there? do you have the free or paid version? just curious.

I am trying to find an application or something to remove everything from my lock screen, or a replacement that let's you use your fingerprint and can be made blank. I am rooted, running substratum, and on the latest version of PixelDust.

substratum LockClean
look it up
I have tried this, and it either does nothing, or crashes substratum and makes me redo everything.

hmmm... must be your ROM.
works great on stock. I keep the clock, disable / hide everything else. black background.
I've tried that too. On stock pixel 2 and it never works all the way. I really want that damn clock gone. Lol. I tried other lockscreens but they have ads.

So I found an app that solves this. The guy who made kustom widget gt has made kustom lock screen app and posted it under early access in the play store. And it's exactly what I want. A simple lock screen with just a picture and a lock on it. Gives you tons of options. I'm thinking of going pro to play around with all the features.
