Guest That-Guy Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Does anyone have a copy of the standard (stock) 2.3 launcher files? If so could you provide a link? Also will the stock launcher work fine with CM7? Having problems with the 2.3 launchers in the Market so want the original files to install :D Thanks in Advance
Guest TRIUMFAS Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Tried to use Nexus S stock launcher, but it doesn't install.
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Share the stock launcher here please? It wont install unless you are on 2.3
Guest That-Guy Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Tried to use Nexus S stock launcher, but it doesn't install. Yes please share these files :D I suppose another option to install would be creating an update.zip to flash in Clockwork?
Guest benlad Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 I just use this one from the Market. Seems to work well.
Guest That-Guy Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 I just use this one from the Market. Seems to work well. Tried that one I think, having a few problems like when I press the home screen all I get is a wallpaper and nothing else. Hoping just the original launcher files will fix this....
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 My point was... That you cant install a aplication coded in a higher version of android than you are running... Eg. You can't install a gingerbread application on froyo. You can't install a honeycomb aplication on gingerbread. However it does work in reverse, of course. And then some apps work for all platforms, allowing extra features for newer releases... But I aam thinking, that this, along with previous stock launchers, willl only install on 2.3+, as, it is a 2.3 launcher. In the same way as the froyo launcher does not install on eclair, or honeycomb on anything but honeycomb.. Etc...
Guest JimJam707 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Not quite what you asked for but the creator of LauncherPro just tweeted this: http://twitpic.com/4e0u3k which probably means a version of it compatible with 2.3 will be out soon.
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 I THINK That this may be the stock 2.3 launcher, downloading it now...

Yeah I am running CM7 so no problems their :D Not quite what you asked for but the creator of LauncherPro just tweeted this: http://twitpic.com/4e0u3k which probably means a version of it compatible with 2.3 will be out soon. Didn't really get on with Launcher Pro on 2.2, yeah I know I am too fussy :D

Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 D'oh, I didn't ppost the link, did I? :D http://download610.mediafire.com/3l222afv2...er2+Replace.zip Its not a clockwork job (i didnt think it would be, but it is stored strangely in the zip so I gave it a blast, and just got errors..) I think this is the old job of deleting the old system launcher in /system/app (like adw or w/e you've put there instead, eg, launcher2.apk [if you're like me]) Placing this new apk there, and rebooting your device (the launcher wont load until you do :D)
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Just extracted the apk from the zip, used the above method and it worked like a charm. Like the old froyo launcher2 I used to use but the phone button works. Hopefully less buggy too :D
Guest That-Guy Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 So the attached files work? Downloading now :D
