I am building AOSP 11 for emulator x86_64 and trying to change Default Launcher with third party launcher.
I am using raspberry pi's launcher downloaded from here
when I manually compile this launcher and install using adb It works, like it gives prompt to choose launcher.
but I need to add in source code.
I have found that I need to override default launcher.
So I have modified raspberry pi's launcher's Android.bp file
add override section
add system_ext_specific: true.( because this is default launcher's path.)
android_app {
name: "RpLauncher",
overrides: ["Home Launcher2 Launcher3 Launcher3QuickStep"],
platform_apis: true,
certificate: "platform",
privileged: true,
system_ext_specific: true,
static_libs: [
"androidx.legacy_legacy-support-v4",
"androidx.recyclerview_recyclerview",
"androidx.leanback_leanback",
"kotlinx-coroutines-core",
],
srcs: ["src/**/*.kt"],
resource_dirs: ["res"],
}
Added package name "RpLauncher" in build/target/product/handheld_system_ext.mk where default launcher(Launcher3QuickStep) package added.
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
Launcher3QuickStep \
Provision \
Settings \
StorageManager \
SystemUI \
WallpaperCropper \
RpLauncher \
After this when start the emulator only bootanimation appears and it never ends. Anyone have any idea about this ?
Here , Problem could be Device not booting as You are adding this app as privileged app
privileged: true,
So, You should whitelist the privileged permission requested by app
