[Q] Issues with LauncherPro after botched kernel install (Phiremod)

Ok, so I was running Dalingrin's most recent build, and installed the OC kernel, and all was well. However, I wanted to use LauncherPro and it kept giving me issues, so I went back to Phiremod 6.3.
I went to install the OC kernel for CM7, not realizing that it was not compatible with Phiremod 6.3. (I figured they were both built on CM7, so it would work. Not so, apparently.) When I restarted, I got a black screen, and holding the N+Power buttons while booting didn't work.
So, I found a thread on XDA to fix my recovery, and I was able to restore my backup.
However, now i cannot add standard widgets or shortcuts (using the menu, long press on the app page works) to Launcher Pro, and any time I try to change something on the dock, I get a force close. I tried fixing permissions, and still no dice. No problems with Launcher Pro widgets or wallpapers. Also, the icon for some apps changed to the stock Market icon, and would not load, but a reinstall of those apps solved the problem.
Short version - Restored a backup after a botched kernel install, now Launcher Pro won't let me install widgets or shortcuts, or change items on the dock.
EDIT: Nevermind. Reinstalled Phiremod through ROM manager and it works fine now. Forgot about that option sooner.

[Q] Failing ICS launcher help

Hello all,
Admittedly, I am a noob. Ive searched the boards for similar solutions to mine, but to no avail. Here is my situation:
I rooted my kindle fire using burritoroot3 and worked beautifully. I had no problem with the root or the process. I came across an ICS launcher that I found good enough to install on my device. I installed it, and instead of testing to see if it would crash, I checked the "use this as default launcher" or something similiar box and now even after hard resetting m KF, and rebooting multiple times, every time it starts up, I get the message
"Sorry
The application ICS 4.0 Launcher (process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpecedly. Please try again
Force Close. "
m
I would like to know if this is fixable or if there is a way to revert back to the other launcher or uninstall the ICS 4.0 one and be able to use it again. I guess this is a "semi-brick" because it loads up fine, doesn't bootloop or anything.
I want to thank you guys in advance even if you are unable to help me!

Use root explorer move the apk from data/app to system/app then reboot

How would I do that? I cant access anything on my device. As soon as it starts up, it force closes on me right after i slide to unlock...

if you have twrp installed you can boot into twrp and have adb commands available
then you can use adb to copy the file ...

Emmmm...try another Rom and see..

This post is perfect reference as to why I will not use a custom launcher.
Buggy crap is all I ever found when using them.

Are you on stock ROM ?

You might go into recovery and wipe the Dalvik cache. If you are using CWM it should be located under the 'advanced' tab.

Probably your device is running on buggy rom...
If you want your device just perfect, flash the stock rom and be the tension-free...

S3 neo keeps restarting on custom roms

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and tried to find the answer before posting this but couldn't find the answer.
The problem is that my phone keeps restarting on custom roms.
It happens on various custom roms i tried cm12.1 and a couple of others. When i first install the custom rom it all seems fine. Even after a couple of restarts it all works okay untill the moment that i install all my apps that i use.
After a number of installed apps the launcher app trebuchet keeps crashing and after that my phone is in an endless boot loop.
Does anyone else know of this problem or have a solution to this weird problem?
Ps. When i revert back to an twrp backup of my old 4.4.2 system all is fine and no bootloops anymore.
I also tried installing nova launcher instead of trebuchet because i tought it was trebuchet related but that didn't work. (I uninstalled trebuchet completely).
Please let me know if you need more info from the phone.
Thanks
Dennis

Did you consider that one of the apps you install is causing the problem?
Try installing apps one by one, and be aware that some apps designed to work in Android KitKat or less may not work on Android 5 or higher.
And some apps have multiple versions for each android version, so it's better to install your apps by downloading them from the play store.
