setting a default launcher Ok so I rooted my samsung galaxy note 10.1 today. I immediately bought the full version of adw launcher and installed it. Now I have a bit of experience with Android and launchers so I have tried all the usual methods of setting a default launcher. 

I tried the home key then "always use" method. I tried clearing the default on the stock launcher. And I've been looking at other methods but none sound like anything I want to risk doing with my new 500 dollar tablet.

Does anyone know of a simple and straight forward method of setting a default launcher?

EDIT:: It was asking me to select a default launcher despite the fact that i had said that i want it to always use ADW EX. In the end the solution was to simply use Titanium Backup and remove all the other launchers. =)

The simple and straightforward method to set the default launcher is the one you used:


Tap the Home button.
Tap ADW.Launcher.
Tap Always.


If this isn't working for some reason, then it might help to describe what the device is doing instead.
