Disable all patches and addons, and check if you are on BlockLauncher 1.2.3, the latest version

BlockLauncher: a custom Minecraft PE launcher for Android

formerly known as MCPELauncher.

Hey, texture artists: want your texture pack to be featured in BlockLauncher? See here!

BlockLauncher is a custom Minecraft PE launcher that wraps around Minecraft PE and provides loading of patches, and (in the Pro version) texture packs, and server IPs.

Just choose Options on the main screen, then select mods. It is that easy!

This program loads libminecraftpe.so from the currently installed copy of Minecraft PE, so it should be compatiable with the mod patching features of PocketTool and QuickPatch.

(For those of you who remembered the first test release of this launcher: yes, I fixed the problem with loading libminecraftpe.so.)

Known issues:
- Jelly Bean users cannot use original textures - they will get the standard demo texture pack
- You can't use the hidden Camera item

Get Pro: Google Play

Amazon Appstore

Get addons: My addons




For testing, please use an official unmodded copy of Minecraft PE.

Any ideas on how I can make this better than the official launcher?

Some patches cannot be patched in-game. It works on my device. Which device do you have?

Quote from 500 Internal Server Error

That's really odd. And this doesn't happen in normal Minecraft PE?

It opens up a screen telling you to buy MCPE. Behind the scenes it force-closes itself to avoid the force close dialog from popping up.
