Help Can't get rid of Action Launcher Pro lockscreen!

[geeknewbie]

Hi guys,

Something wierd is going on. I have an S3 international, with touchwiz 4.1.2 on it. I installed Action Launcher and I didn't like it so I removed it.

After unistallation, more often than not the lockscreen of the launcher is still present. If I set a pattern lock, I have to use the slider of the launcher and then I get to the stock lockscreen with the pattern.

As I had to manually update to 4.1.2 (don't as why) I decided to perform a factory reset. I backed up everything using go backup pro. I installed the new firmware, performed a factory reset, restored my backup and after the next restart the lockscreen was there again!

After that, with some setting in Android tweaker I managed to temporarily brick my phone, so I wiped it again, reinstalled it and restored my backup which was created by titanium backup this time as I heard so good things about it.

Guess what... the lockscreen is back again. It is very anoying!!!

After the last reinstall, I organized all my apps (about 60) in folders, set up widgets, etc... it took more than an hour. Can you guys recommend a way to fix this without having to reinstall everything? My phone is rooted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you considered emailing the developer from the play store page and while there write a clear and fair review. I bet you get a quick answer.

try reinstalling the app. then before you delete it clear the data. the backups contain this file. you could also search with root explorer for the file to delete

Thnaks kevindroid, I'll try this one before contacting the developers.

Could you give me further info on what app to use, what to look for when deleting data, and maybe where to look for it?

Thanks again!

I contacted the developer but so far (in like a week) all I got was an auto-reply saying he gets a huge number of mails every day, so it'll take a while for her to respond. And of course some FAQ like thing with no word on this particular issue. App description was no help either. Any other suggestions?

Please...

Ok, so I reinstalled, cleaned app data then removed. No help, lockscreen still here. No word from the developer. I downloaded and installed root explorer. Could anyone please help me what to look for and where to look for it? Please!!
