Hello there, today i bringing something useful to us, for those who want to stay in the chinese version but hate the launcher, here the tip to change it.

1 - First thing first, you need another launcher pre-install, like Nova Launcher, Pixel Launcher or any other
2 - You need to have the adb on you computer * you can find in some threat here in the group*
3 - Developer Mode active on your smartphone

Ok, now we can move on to the real deal
in the CMD we going to write adb devices , and see if the phone is attached in the list, if its OK, than just write on cmd panel: shell, and after this pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.asus.launcher3

After that, the launcher will be deleted and the new launcher you just installed in the beginning will be working on like the main one.
:fingers-crossed::good::victory::highfive:

OBS 1.: You can reinstall asus launcher if you do some backup, formatting or any other ways you want if you want to go back to the launcher.

OBS 2.: with this command you can delete others apks that you don't want, but you need know what you are doing.

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I am not responsible to any damage if you accidentally delete apks or something that you shouldn't.
