[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 ...

Note 3 SecSettings issue

Hi
I have an SM-N900.
Recently I changed a few stuff in the UI including the Settings menu. I was using the Settings menu from S5 by replacing the apk. Today I thought of reverting this. This is what I did :
1) Changed the existing apk to SecSettings.apk_S5 (as a backup)
2) And i changed the backup I had (SecSettings.apk.bak) to SecSettings.apk
Now, I assumed the permissions and all would be fine as it was being used earlier. I don't know if its the permissions that is causing the problem, but, after I rebooted the phone after making the above changes, my phone won't boot up. It is stuck at the Samsung logo...
What do i do ? Is there some way of flashing the settings apk (if i find the correct one) as a zip file from CWM ? or should i just flash a stock firmware ?
UPDATE :
I used Aroma file browser to revert these changes (that is go back to s5 settings) and the phone came up finally !!! Now the questions is, how do i go back to my stock settings ?

System UI failed to start after app permission changes

Hello guys, I hope you can help me...
I own an A2017G Version with the latest original Firmware, no unlocked bootloader, no root, nothing changed from stock. I noticed that many preinstalled system apps require strange permissions for contacts, sms, etc... So I tried to denie them. In the official settings - apps - app permissions I removed a few entries... So for example the contact permission from the SystemUI package.
After this the phone restarted immediatelly and after the multi image bootscreen I only get a black screen. No userinterface is showing up. The only thing what is working is the power menu. The 4 entries restart, shutdown, flight modus and vibration are shown in front of a completely black Background.
So, the phone is obviously booting up fine, but it fails to start the user interface correctly. Is there any way to repair this thing, for example by resetting all the app permissions? I found the command
Code:
adb shell pm reset-permissions
but I've got ADB disabled within the rom and with the factory test mode the command fails, because it says that the device must be up and the package manager must be running for the operation. So at the moment I see no way for resetting the permissions without a full wipe... Is there still hope?
I would really appreciate any tipps!
Did you try this?

PLEASE HELP! Substratum messed my galaxy s8 up.

After I applied a skin, it instantly crashed with a message saying "the system ui has stopped".
I can't get in to my phone. Only the always on display is available as of right now.
I have tried ejecting the sim, booting it in to safe mode.
My phone is not rooted and I don't plan on rooting it. I haven't registered bixby so I can't put it in to max power saving mode.
I don't know what adb shell is. Please can anyone help me save my phone? I am so desperate.
PLEASE HELP. MY PHONE IS A BRICK.
Can I save my phone without a factory reset?
I was on Oreo Beta.
Please help. Thank you
once in safe mode, see if you can disable substratum or perform a factory reset.
Ok dont panic i also had trouble after applying substratum, First my phone became very laggy and then apps stopped working with constant crashes. Eventually the phone became unusable. A factory reset solved the problem for me, if you cant get into the phone use samsung smart switch you should be able to reset it from there and try back up your data.
You could also try flashing a rom to see if this would help.
If you can't delete the overlays from safe mode then you'll have to perform a factory reset. The only other way I would assume is unfortunately uninstalling the overlay apks through adb but then you need to know the full name of the apks you want to delete. by using adb you could find the names of all installed apk but then again.. could be a reason to learn to use adb
Thread cleaned No need for rude comments guys Lets keep it on track....

[FIX] Applying incompatible theme causing system ui stopping

Only tested in MIUI 9 oreo could work with nougat too
If your phone stopped working after applying a theme making your system ui stop and a black lockscreen you can easily fix it by doing what i found out as i didn't see anything on it anywhere else
Requirements
-unlocked bootloader
-TWRP recovery installed
Reboot to recovery then open file manager in advanced window
Go to /data/system/theme
Then delete the files with app names that stops
Like
com.android.systemui
Then just reboot and you're done ?
Nice
thanks, i wish i read this befoe reformatting my phone because of a theme i applied that made EVERYTHING dark and unusable. Xiaomi does fantastic hardware but the software side is pure ass.
Also forcing you to use their app to change themes is so greedy, at least make it work.
