It happened to me too and I just happened to figure it out, I believe by removing it entirely. If you can't get it to work this way, let me know and I'll try to figure out where I removed it from in order to get it to load.

What is funny is that since I am not married to this version, i downloaded the XDAndroid2.2Froyo.121610 version rather than the BLAZIN version, which I thought did not have this installed and I go right to the web browser after running Harit. I cannot get out of it. It looks like this clever guy puts some files somewhere to "encourage" you to buy his software one way or another. The problem is even if I did want to pay the blackmail I could not get to a place to put in the authorization code....

IIRC that's where it happened with me too, and I do have the "donate" version or whatever the heck it's called. You have to remove it, I don't recall exactly where it was, but I believe it was in winmo and searching through the files I was able to remove it completely. It's called fede.xxxx something or other, didn't just jump out at you as the right file but that was it. I'm working now and playing on android, but later or tomorrow morning I'll get into it and let you know how to get around it if you haven't fixed it yet. But you need to have another launcher on there, ADW, launcher, etc, but there needs to be one. And also get home switcher or one like that to set the other launcher as your default. Just uninstalling it doesn't work with titanium backup IIRC because the apk is still there and will reload on reboot.

Thanks, but I think my install(s) is completely screwed up as i get nothing but a dead browser and their URL with no way to download anything. I thought this thing was sandboxed into the folder on the storage card. I guess I am wrong. So I cannot download anything as an alternative. No fede.xxxx in the /Windows/ folder....

Ndno just put together a nice write up for loading up Tiad's Froyo x which screams, fast as hell, stable, minimal force closes, take a look at that if you're interested, it's not that difficult, he's just got steps he does and recommends to make it run better and I believe it works. Also, ACL has gotten headphones to work through the usb adapter and is working on the 3.5mm plug so hopefully this thing will be fully working soon.

For the record, this installed eventually fine. I am not sure I found the best build, but it functions well without the problems noted above.

The simple way to remove any application built with ROM is using terminal. But this way is for pro user only, it can damage your ROM and need to restore system.ext2 if android can not boot again

First, open terminal, you can use Terminal Emulator or Connect Bot then type following commands:

Code:

su
cd /system/app/
ls

you need check launcherpro's apk file name then use command:

Code:

rm launcherpro.apk

to remove launcherpro which launcherpro.apk is the launcherpro's apk file name.
