    copied!<p>The code to do this is actually just a very clever work around. </p> <p>When a component with </p> <pre><code> &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>is enabled, generally from an install of a new home application, the default home app gets cleared. </p> <p>To take advantage of this by creating an empty activity with the home component like this. </p> <pre><code>&lt;activity android:name="com.t3hh4xx0r.haxlauncher.FakeHome" android:enabled="false"&gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; </code></pre> <p>When you want to set your new default, you enable this component, then call the home intent and then disable your fake home component again.</p> <pre><code>public static void makePrefered(Context c) { PackageManager p = c.getPackageManager(); ComponentName cN = new ComponentName(c, FakeHome.class); p.setComponentEnabledSetting(cN, PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_ENABLED, PackageManager.DONT_KILL_APP); Intent selector = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN); selector.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME); c.startActivity(selector); p.setComponentEnabledSetting(cN, PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_DISABLED, PackageManager.DONT_KILL_APP); } </code></pre> <p>The end result is that the system thinks a new home app was installed, so the default is cleared allowing you to set yours with no special permissions.</p> <p>Thank you to Kevin from TeslaCoil and NovaLauncher for the information on how this is done!</p>
