Just another way to remove the Apex Loader System app in this rom - Remember try AYOR
> Install as normal from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470998 (Great Stable rom)
> When you have completed the listed steps in that thread
> install RM Toolbox - I think either lite or Pro will work - i used Pro (in Play Store)
> got to app manager
> select Apex Launcher
> advanced
> convert apex launcher to user app
Then you are free to install other launchers and uninstall Apex from the normal uninstall screen as you see fit
a lot of steps but not really that hard - worked for me and was repeatable
Thanx again

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, I have installed version 2.2.9 FroyoBread and the truth is that I love.
My problem is I want to install a version of Launcher Pro Plus is different from that including the ROM and will not let me ... the message I get is "the application is not installed"
I tried to uninstall the current version but will not let me uninstall it ...
Thanks
First change your default home launcher by clearing at the Clear default in the Launcher Pro app at settings->Applications->Manage App->Lancher Pro and uninstall then reboot your phone and try to install. If I helped you then Press Thanks to me Plz.
And how do I set the default launcher? Version 2.2.9 is FroyoBread ...
I suggest you to install titanium back pro and wipe data & uninstall the stock Launcher Pro in your rom then reboot and try to install your version of launcher pro.
And to set the default launcher you have to press home button then you will get the options to select home launcher.
I have a installed xrecobery and ClockworkMod ... one of these helps me to choose the default launcher I? that option is?
Follow these steps to change default launcher and install your version of launcher pro.
1.Go to Settings->App->Manage App->select Launcher Pro in the third Tab
2. Press Clear defaults button, forced to stop and uninstall
3. Press home button and you will be asked to select default launchers
4. reboot and install your version of launcher pro
Hope it helped you.
1.Go to Settings-> App-> Manage App-> select in the third Launcher Pro Tab
2. Press Clear button defaults, forced to stop ...
up there, so good, but then I enabled the Uninstall button
Then uninstall the launcher pro using that Uninstall button and press home button in ur mobile, you will be asked to select home launcher. Now select any one of other launcher in your mobile and reboot your phone. After reboot install your version of launcher pro.
you gotta be careful though. ive read that if you uninstall the only launcher, ur going to run into some problems (ie u will get a black screen when u boot up your phone)

You might want to update your Google app to the latest & make sure the Google Now Launcher standalone app is properly installed.

May have to do with Google syncing data. You could try removing your account from the phone and then trying the above mentioned things again.
Thank you very much to all, I finally discovered what was happening: google now launcher was NOT installed on the device... it didnt come installed by default and i did not realized. I'm an idiot!
Thank you all and sory for the time loss
Hello, I'm new here on XDA developers.
ONLY MARSHMALLOW !!!
Lollipop( not testest).
You can try, if you have lollipop version device.
Now Firstly, Go-to this link : https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.google.android.gms
Enter into Beta version of Google Play Services​.
After Beta Version installed.
Go-to Device's Settings > Application >Google App > Storage Data > Clear all Data and Cache.
Back to home screen and hold the home navigation button, got it.?
Awesome, thanks!
For those who have problems with notifications using ZUI here is a possible solution that I found in one of the XDA forums.
Need: Root (Magisk)
(I think there is no way to revive notifications if they are not root)
you'll need magisk then flash this 2 modules;
1)quickswitch
2)shady launcher
(Both available here)
1)flash those 2 & reboot.
2)open quickswitch app & choose shady launcher then reboot.
3)go to setting>apps>default app>home app>shady launcher.
4)open security>autostart>enable for *your apps*
5)security>acceleration>setting>protection list>add *your apps*
side notes : setting>notification>notification management>*your apps*>allow
this fixes should/might be working for other device running ZUI CN too.

With that all (I think) notifications will work
But since not everything can be good, it has its bugs.
Bugs:
(Only using third party launchers like Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, Microsoft Launcher, etc))
1.- Screenshot option not working
2.- Delete backround not working
3.- Tap to back to apps not working
Solution= Use Shady Launcher xd
Edit: Probably some are saying: "This works with any installable launcher as a system"
And correct, if it works with any launcher systemless xd
If you don't like Shady Launcher because of how dated it looks then I'll also give you Lawnchair Systemless (With this, unlike the previous one, if third-party launchers work)
Edit 2: Quickswitch is not necessary, you can skip it if you want.
Edit 3: Excuse my english, I use google translate xd
Edit 3: If for some reason it doesn't let you choose a default launcher when you go to startup, then go to the following address:
Settings > Apps Management > Defaults Apps > Home app > Select launcher systemless

This would be all, I hope it works for you and again, sorry for the lousy writing.
