Launcher stops working - SOLVED

knuti

After shutting down a few times (may be 2 or 3 times or so), after restart I get the message "Launcher3 wurde beendet". In the English, I think, it would be "Launcher3 was stopped/finished/closed" or something like this. The phone is unusable then, restart doesn´t help, only way to get out of this is to scroll down the topbar, go to settings and make a factory reset. I had this 3 times now this week, only after complete shutdown for a few hours (until now). Z Pro. V3.01_20170408

Should I try another launcher, thirdparty ?

Today it happened again, this time not after complete shutdown, happened just after waking up the sleeping phone.
Now I have installed Nova Launcher, maybe this works better, we will see...

Nova without any problem until now, tried to go back to the standard "Launcher 3" , same issue again, I will not try again.

Hi,
Please go to 'Settings --> App', tap the 3-dot menu button and select Show system. Scroll down to Launcher3 and select it, then Force stop and in Storage clear data. If your issue still persist, please try to use your phone set to English language for a while, so it can be turned out if this crashing is related to a specific language.

Solved it with deleting the data from Launcher3
