Here you go!
Hit "Thanks" if I helped you
thanks for the file man but I'm having trouble installing it, I put it at sdcard then into /system folder, then changed permission and move to system/app/ then reboot. still not showing in home switcher. I even click on it and pressed 'install' but showing 'application not installed'. any other way to do it?

Rather then moving and setting permissions, why not just try to install like a normal app?
Tried just now and still no luck, I guess i'll have to stick w/ launcher pro then.

If both doesn't work, then you have final choice is to flash using SEUS. Make sure you backup your stuff before proceeding.

Are you shure that permissions were set right? Also, maybe SE home was "installed" but just not showing in home switcher (as I understood it is a third paty aplication?).
Maybe try to delete the default settings for launcher pro and then press home button. The dialog to chose home screen should appear.
the original app is called home.apk perhaps it needs to be called that?

Sorry to hijack this thread. But could a nice person please upload the talk.apk? I REALLY need it very fast.
TY in advance

I rooting my NT via t-r-i-c-k mac script and got it up and running just fine. However, I accidentally hit the default on homecatcher to the Nook Home and not the goLauncher home.
Anyone know how you can get back to where you can choose and there is no default. Thanks!
BTW t-r-i-c-k thanks for making such an easy root.
Just install another free launcher. Then Homecatcher will start prompting again and you can uninstall it. There may be a more elegant fix, but this only takes a minute.

Clear defaults from the Application Settings or install another launcher to clear defaults.
Homecatcher settings
Same problem here, I cannot get my Nook button back to original after installing Homecatcher. Installing new launchers and resetting defaults and cache do nothing. I have uninstalled it and my launchers trying to get the prompt back. There is no access to settings in Homecatcher only a donate link, what's up with that? How do you access the settings? How can I get my 'N' button to once again pull up my Nook default settings? Thank you in advance.
you can download manage applications on android market then go to homecatcher and clear defaults
Re-installed Homecatcher
I did the same thing on my son's NT and spent a few hours doing things, including trying to re-root, which didn't need to be done & I couldn't figure out how to do it. I read this thread & tried to find those options, but to no avail. . . so I just decided to find the Homecatcher app and re-installed it & the N function to toggle back and forth between the Nook home & Android launcher works just fine now.
I made the same mistake and no longer have homecatcher giving me the option, when I look at it with ES file manager there are no defaults, I have uninstalled and reinstalled homecatcher from the reference thread on this forum, still only BN home comes up and when I goto homecatcher I only get the donate screen.
I had made this mistake before but can't seem to clear it this time....please help?
I have tried to install other launchers, but they get errors and won't install.
Resolved - restored B&N home and homecatcher from Titanium Backup, working fine now. I think restoring the backup of B&N home is what really fixed it. I suspect that's where the default became set and it wasn't visible from ES Filemanager or Go Launcher so I could not clear the default.

Hi,
First sorry for my poor English. I'm new on this forum although I'm registered in it a month ago. I've been reading and trying to understand all before posting this post.
I'm using this CM10.1 on my ST5570 (S. Galaxy Mini) and want change Trebuchet Launcher system launcher with NOVA launcher on this release. I can't post on the thread linked above because I haven't yet permissions to do this.
Any help will be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
Hi!
Install Nova, than in Titanium Backup delete Trebuchet (i think this is the name of the launsher app), or after install the Nova go to any file explorer (for example ES File Explorer) with root permission, and delete the app from there (/system/app/Trebuchet.apk).
Good luck!
Cheers!

Thanks a lot! I will try it!!
I've tried it with Titanium Backup and it works!!
Thanks a lot.
you probably should leave trebuchet on it, in case you accidently remove nova, when there's no launcher you can't use the phone
Hi there,
for ages i have been looking for a way to install Playstore or Android Market onto bluestacks. I had tried several methods found online, none of which worked for various reasons (File to old, parse errors and allsorts) then by accident I found this method!
Firstly I would like to point out I had google framework services installed from a previous attempt. Im unsure if this is relevant at all but feel i should include this info. If it doesnt work and you dont have Google Framework services, please download, install and try again.
These are the steps you need to add playstore/google appstore
Add your google account to bluestacks, You find this in Settings, Manage Accounts.
Download and install the APK for ADW Launcher
Restart Bluestacks, then go to apps, then select home. (It will ask if you want to use Apps or ADW)
Select ADW Launcher, now you will see Playstore or Android Market on the main screen.
Click and enjoy!
The bonus is ADW is a great launcher, like GO ex
if it works without installing Google Framework first please let us all know, thanks!
I hope it will work for you.. good luck
I cannot direct link yet but ADW Launcher is easily found with a google search goodluck
Also I added a poll so people can see if its even worth their time, please be honest and take the time to answer correctly, it also helps others if you reply with your bluestacks version thankyou!
Hi guys,
I'm using a Huawei P9 with firmware EVA-L09C432B386 and I'm trying to convert Apex/Nova launcher to system app. It's because the phone wouldn't allow you to use certain widgets such as weather on third party launcher.
I moved both Apex and Nova folder from /data/app to /system/app and change the permission to Owner RW/Group R/Other R. But after rebooting the phone, the already installed launcher apps were missing. I couldn't find them in the drawer or "Settings - Apps" but only in the /system/app folder, however I couldn't launch or install them from the folder anyway.
Then I tried to use Titanium Backup to convert them to system apps, it just stuck in the "processing" forever. So I shut down the Titanium and reboot the phone, then go into the /system/app folder and there's an launcher apk there, I installed it but it just couldn't function properly.
Do you guys know any other way to convert them to system app, or what I did wrong in the process? Any input would be appreciated.
Ever wonder why no custom ROMs use said launchers as default? Coz you can't.
