[Q] Apex Launcher has stopped - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
When ever I turn my phone on, I always get:
"Unfortunately, Apex Launcher has stopped"
What could be causing this?

use android injector from your pc to install any other additional launcher. clear cache and data of apex

Or you can uninstall and reinstall apex launcher again.

just in case you have done a backup before you can try this:
go in recovery mode, backup and restore/advanced restore/choose the backup/restore system..... that should fix
otherways if you don't have a backup done you can load the same deodex rom on your external/sd and then go on recovery.....
hope this will help you

for that purpose he can use "android injector" to install any launcher, after that he can switch to that launcher and install/reinstall/uninstall apex

Tried Android Injector for the same problem, fails to load new launcher every time. Thanks anyway for the suggestion though

please tell me how to clear cache

not to necro, but heres an easy fix
The problem was bad (or improperly upgraded?) saved data in the launcher app. Here's how I fixed it.
At the dialog above, press "Report"
When in the report screen, drag down the notification bar at the top of the screen.
Press the settings button in the upper left of the notifications area.
Tap "Apps", then "All", then Apex find Launcher in the list. Tap Apex Launcher.
Tap "Clear Data".
You lose your home screen customizations, but at least the phone now works again.
you can also just choose to uninstall it

Same here, after the update today (09/24) Apex launcher froze. Since I had another launcher no issue with phone's operation.
Is clearing the data only option? or is there any issue with the latest update?

Clear data didn't help me after today's problem.. seems to me that there's a problem with this certain update
you can enter the settings using the drag-down menu and then uninstall updates to the launcher
you lose your settings and home screen..
I had backups for them so just restored them and it's working again
hopefully they'll fix it soon

same here
on Droid X ICS Gummy
Updated launcher today...
Had to uninstall the update
all better now
Thx

This is the only thing that worked for me. Uninstall updates. It seems that the new version of Apex Launcher (v1.2.5) constantly crashes. Hopefully v1.2.6 comes out soon!

Looks like an issue across the board, I'm still stuck.. All users have reported the issue in the Play storelink

From s3forums:
"The Dev has been contacted and a fix in progress"
Who knows how long but at least they know. I'm gonna keep my settings for now and suffer with my uncustomized Go or TW or whatever for now. Hopefully it wont be long. Nice beta testing huh.....

Ver:1.3.1 working great

Apex Launcher is back, dev has done a great job in bring it back in a day!! Go ahead and grab the latest version and enjoy the launcher.

I installed Nova launcher to get my phone working. And to be honest, I think I stick with it for a while. Multi select app to put them on a page or create a map is very easy.
Maybe it is also possible with Apex, but it have not found it.

Go Launcher "tablet" setting, how to...

I successfully rooted my NT (thank you Indirect) and in setting up GoLauncher with its initial settings, it noted that there was a new "tablet" setting for the launcher which makes icons and such larger.
I hate this look.
Is there any way to change it back to the settings for a phone instead of having everything larger? I've scoured the settings to change it to the phone size, but can't find it. I thought I'd be able to uninstall it and reinstall it, but I can't even figure out how to do that.
can anyone help?
I know there is a setting, but I'm not near my NT to look. When Go Launcher updated on my NT a couple of days ago there was a pop up that said the location. I'll post back when I find it.
I use appmenu so i can manage the app. Then uninstall the update and from market i unflag the automatic update... Old version done

Yeah, I tried this, but it's not quite the same. I was really hoping for the phone sized option instead. Everything's scaled down and not just some of the icons.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
yes,I dislike that large icon neither
so I just reinstalled the old version
you can download it from their web

OK, dumb question then. How do i uninstall it? I've been using Uninstaller to uninstall apps off the tablet, but GoLauncher doesn't display in the list of apps. Is there somewhere else to uninstall it from?

[Q] Notification bar vanished?

Hi all,
I've been having this problem since yesterday. My notifcation bar has vanished, apart from on my lockscreen and when I have exDialer running. I have done a cache wipe, dalvik wipe, fixed permissions, and reinstalled my ROM (Paranoid Android). I dont really want to do a full wipe as I'd lose all my apps. Is there any other way, or is the only option to do a clean install?
Thanks

I wish it were that simple. I'm using nova, and have already checked for that. Deselected, selected, you name it. Doesnt work.
its still functioning btw. On my lockscreen I see it, and as I enter my home screen, it rolls up. Same thing, on exDialer its there, but when i switch to home, it rolls up again. Uninstalled the launcher, using another launcher etc, does nothing.
Try to hold the option button for a few seconds when you are on your homescreen.
It's a option in nova to hide the notification bar.

[Q] Widgetlocker: Cannot change lockscreen wallpaper

I use Nova Launcher as my launcher and recently tried using widget locker in place of the sony lockscreen. However, one issue I ran into is that I am unable to change the lockscreen wallpaper.
Anyone else using the app having similar issues?
Thanks in advance:good:

I am facing the same problem even with stock launcher. Older version of WidgetLocker, namely 2.3.2r1, works fine on my Sony Tablet Z SGP-321 on Android 4.4. But all the new versions do not set lockscreen wallpaper. When I click "Look & Feel", "Select Wallpaper", choose the wallpaper I want, but then nothing happens, and the screen returns to WidgetLocker settings without having changed the lockscreen wallpaper. I do not understand what the issue is. If some one could advise, that would be nice!

I tried all that (deleting data and cache and even factory reset) and it wouldn't work, drove me crazy.
Am on a SM-T525 and without widget locker I had two different wallpapers for home and lock screen, while widget locker always took the set system home wallpaper, totally ignoring the alternate wallpaper flag.
I used root explorer and manually put my lock screen wallpaper in data\data\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker\files\wallpaper.png and now it works.
Make sure it has the right dimensions (in my case 2500x1600) and the naming is right (so wallpaper.png and not Wallpaper.png).
Can't believe this is the only way to do this actually but am happy for now.
Good luck!

Thanks a lot! At least some sort of solution!!!
Some time after...
Tried this trick with wallpaper.png substitution - doesn't work for me. And once again, strangely enough, WidgetLocker v. 2.3.2r1 DOES work, but sometimes behaves weirdly on KitKat.

Mmm... Did you delete all cache? Also resetting other apps that might still have settings towards the wallpaper (like other launchers) to default?
And then disable and re-enable widgetlocker must work. I am on 4.4.2 myself with latest Widgetlocker

How exactly should I clear cache and/or data? For WidgetLocket I can clear cache and data.Should I clear both?
As for launcher I am using Nova Launcher. There I can clear cache, data and defaults. I assume if I clear data I will loose all the setting, i.e. screens layout, and I don't want to do that.
Here are the steps I take:
1. Turn off WL
2. Clear its cache AND data
3. Put wallpaper.png into the folder you told me
4. Launch WL (I see my current homescreen wallpaper and NOT the wallpaper.png)
5. Check "Alternative Wallpaper" (without actually clicking "Select Wallpaper")
6. Click home to return to homescreen.
7. Turn off screen.
When I wake the tablet up I still see my homescreen wallpaper and not the wallpaper.png.
Maybe I am doing something in a wrong sequence?
Another guess is the difference between your Sams GT and my Sony Tablet Z.

Hey
Am sorry it's such a drag, I felt very frustrated too (and still am, as it should work just all out of the box).
I would clear cache and data and then copy the file first, make sure it's correct and it's there and then disable and re-enable WL, as it reads that .png when it's re-activated.
Can I ask you, when you disable WL do you have a different lock and home screen? So via system settings just setting 2 different wallpapers for home and lock screen, are they different then?
Also, is your .png file ok, what I mean is does it show in Gallery if you select it? Sorry if I'm stating out the obvious
Personally I cleared cache via Application Manager and that should be enough, and yes, I also cleared WL data and had to reorganize all.
I don't know if op found the solution, but an older version of wl (2.3) worked for my Galaxy tab 2.

Yes. If I disable WL, I can set different wallpapers for lockscreen and home screen via system settings. The problem is that if you do it via system the wallpaper for lockscreen needs to be of very weird resolution as Google wants to use it both for landscape and portrait mode, while I just want it to be of 1920x1200 for landscape.
Also, is your .png file ok, what I mean is does it show in Gallery if you select it? Sorry if I'm stating out the obvious

Well, it doesn't open from data\data\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker\files. But if I copy the file from there to my SD card - it shows in gallery as proper image.
In conclusion, I still don't manage to get WL to pick up wallpaper.png from data\data\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker\files.
I've now updated to Android 4.4.4 and did factory reset. Damn thing still not setting alternative wp! ((

but i don't think its not the themer problem that its redraw, since i get back to default home touchwiz launcher yet still its redrawed...maybe the rom is the cause?

That might be the case, Themer is designed to work with stock ROMs (as that what we test it on). Lower RAM also doesn't really help, as we're still trying to optimize Themer's performance for low-end devices. Sorry about that.

Hi Themer team. I am having problem with your Themer app. I have a Nexus 4, which is still powerful with 2GB ram, but the launcher keeps redrawing. It's REALLY ANNOYING..so because It's redrawing when I scroll in home screen it's really laggy. But after maybe 10 seconds, everything settles, and becomes smooth again. After using an app for a while and go to Themer, it happens again. PLEASE fix it for us.. I really love themer, and recently installed it for someone who didn't know about it, but I'm pretty sure she's getting mad too with this bug..
Thank you.

Hi.
Please try this method, as it should help fix the issue:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
We are aware of the problem and the developers are doing their best to fix the issue

Just tried, but doesn't help unfortunately. BTW even unlocking my phone redraws Themer. It's so annoying, I think I'm gonna switch to another launcher until you guys fix it. Hopefully soon, cause I want to use Themer.

I would suggest install some other launcher and click home, it will ask you to choose which should be default as checkbox, choose your fav launcher and uninstall the other launcher.

Can you try installing QuickHomeSwitcher and see if it shows other launchers for you to select.

Thank you, I tried the app, but whenever I open it, it's not going to open but switches immediately to the first screen (Homescreen) of the oppo Reno standard launcher.
What I do now is, I start my favorite launcher and it runs like a normal app. To keep it open, I always have to switch back to it in the recent app list. When I end/kill it, then of course I get the standard launcher Homescreen back.
Very strange for me too, I have been working with many smartphones yet, also rooting and flashing things forwards and backwards but not yet encountered a problem like this
Enclosed a picture of my given default app list where Homescreen is simply missing
