Hey! First post here, hope I'm doing everything right!
I have an unrooted Evo shift 4g and I downloaded Launcher 7 ( a launcher designed to look like windows phone 7 UI) and I want to use it as a default. Whenever I press the home button a box that says "complete action using" pops up with the option of htc sense or launcher 7. Here is a list of things I have tried to make it a default.
Checking the "use by default for this action" box in the pop up

Using scores of third party "home smack" and "home switcher" knockoffs

And going through the applications- manage applications- and clearing defaults for htc sense, but there is no option in launcher 7 for "'make default"

Any ideas to help? Thanks!

No solution found yet. I am wondering if it won't default because it says "default for this action". Is the default for the launcher only applying to certain apps? Does it have something to do with htc Sense? Thanks in advance.

Selecting "Use as default" before selecting the launcher should assign it as the default launcher. If it does not work, I would uninstall/reinstall the launcher and once it is reinstalled try to assign it as the default again. Also, make sure the software on your phone is up-to-date.
