Go Launcher Ex - newbie confusion

[V.Lee]

This is one of my first forays into new apps, so it is probably just me, but...

I installed the version 2.20 of this on my Epic and played around with it. I *thought* that when I was using it initially, and pressed the regular home icon, it brought this up. Or actually gave me a choice of this and "launch" and some other program. At some point, I pressed the "launch" choice and now every time I press the little house, I don't get a choice and just get the original Epic screen. I tried reinstalling since I'd accidentally moved things around. I can get into Go Launch by pressing its icon in my application list, but is there a way to "attach" it to the house button?

And are there instructions somewhere? Being fairly new to all things Android, I'm not finding this "drawer" concept very intuitive.

Install an app called HomeSmack, which allows you to change your default launcher at will. Hope that helps.

Also, you can try going into your Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, and see if you can find the default launcher app. if you do, you can go down to Clear Defaults, and it will go back to giving you the choice of what launcher to use, each time you press your Home button. Had my gf just do that today on her phone, and had to go do that so she could choose the default launcher, as that had all her home screens set up the way she wanted them.

AHA, that's the one that did it. (It was "twlauncher"). Thanks for the help!

Sure thing! Had to do the same thing myself at first until I got things straight
