[App] Samsung Galaxy S Launcher (TouchWiz)

All credit goes to rolle3k from the Nexus One Forums, all I'm doing is reposting it here for the Evo users
Original thread
Features
-It does not include the Samsung widgets
-It does work on Froyo and Eclair... I'm running it on the DamageControl Rom
-1 to 7 homescreens
-Application Dock
-App drawer is iphone like style
I would recommend you download the app "Home Switcher" from the market, if you didn't already... Makes it very easy to switch between home replacement apps, and set as default.
Download
TO ADD APPS TO THE DOCK, open up the all the applications by pressing the applications tab, then press menu, then press edit, and drag your apps to the dock as you wish.
Heres some pictures

nice contribution. thanks

This is one of the many reasons I love android! Something on another android device you want? Wait a few days and it shall be so!

You are using the built-in application installer most likely, try something like Apkatcher and try installing it again.

Can't get it apkatcher just shows black screen with cancel button

working perfect and uses less memory than stock htc launcher
Im running the current ota update stock and loaded this launcher perfectly ( allow install of third party apps under settings, used apollo file manager). All you need is the samsung widgets plus the 4g toggle ( look in other posts) and you have the epic without a keyboard. Thank you for the option. Love android. PS apple i have reception no matter how i hold my big a$$ phone.

Can someone send me the file...won't let me download

It did that for me as well, I had to download with a computer, then transfer the files to the phone. For some reason when I downloaded directly with the EVO, the file kept getting cut off at 13kb. The file is like 1.5mb

Can someone who's downloaded this and installed it successfully please upload the. apk to RapidShare or something? The problem is that download link lists the file at 1.4mb but when you actually download it the file only ends up being 13kb or something. I believe there is something wrong with that particular download link/site. Thanks
EDIT: posted this before I saw the post above. Sorry and thanks

nice, love the style. any chance on getting widgets?

First, thank you for this, I love it! Second, is it possible to remove the dots at the top? My taskbar already looks busy enough...

Edit: Only on the main screen, the dots on the apps page is useful.

Not without rewriting the apk...you can do it...don't think its worth the time

I'm currently trying to decide if I want to install a launcher. I have launcher pro and not too fond of it. I'm looking at adwex now and I want to get peoples input on the two. Pro's and cons of each.

Have you tried go! Launcher? I'm using it with miui currently and it looks / works great. Similar customization to adw but I prefer go!

I like go! as well but it has one major flaw for me (well, not the app but rather the integration with Android when installing go! add ons like go! dialer). When you get a missed call, you can see the notification in the notifications bar. If you jump to it, it shows rom dialer / log and when you jump out, notification is gone. Normal behavior. But if you tap the phone shortcut in dock and it launches go! dialer by default, you see the dialer / log, but after jumping back notification is still there. Either go! dialer should display notifications in the notification bar so we could disable the android notifications, or the dialer app should remove the stock android notification once event was viewed. Same for go! message app. And go! notifications for dock shortcuts.
But anyhow, I would prefer if MIUI allowed app sorting on homescreen as part of it's launcher. And I do believe this is one of the most sought after features. I don't really like the way MIUI "reserves" blocks for each app and that you must move them to folders in order to sort and that the free spaces left on screen are not used up before adding the next app to the last active screen.
/end rant

I'm not using go dialer or sms. But I don't recall these issues when I did use them. Specifically sms, just turn off default sms notifications.

Can't go wrong with WidgetLocker (it's worth it).

Went to the play store to get Widgetlocker and I get a message stating that my device is not compatible.

I'm running qqlauncher, not many themes or widgets, but you can get widgets else where.
Well any who, also comes with a very good lockscreen.

Hmm... odd thing. Widgetlocker is not even showing up in a search at the Play Store. I have it installed so it shows up in my installed list with the "device incompatible" msg as well. I installed it from a Titanium Backup.

Go Locker is free and has a lot of themes available. I use it (I've even made a couple themes for the market...er..."play store"). And I think you may be able to use it without needing to have go launcher as your default home. As long as you set it up while using go launcher/ go locker, you might be able to switch to whatever other launcher you prefer. I may be mistaken since I haven't tried it myself (I use go launcher), but friends with samsung phones have tried it and can use it with other launchers.

I like that one too.
I like being able to change which shortcuts I have available and have more than 3 or 4. That's why I made my own that has 4 app shortcuts and the home unlock. If anyone wants to try it out and let me know what they think, it's free on the market here:

Thank you!! My LCD density was set at 256. I changed it back to 240; still didn't work. So then I cleared the Dalvik cache and the data from Goggle Play Store and now I can download apps once again!!

I think what you need to do is set the "Go Switch Widget" as a Device Administrator. Go to menu>settings>location & security>Select device administrators and then check the go switch widget.
The stock moto locker should not come up (except for when your phone boots up from a shutdown/restart). Let us know if that's what fixes it.
Also, just as a side note, make sure when you install a different theme for Go Locker that you do NOT hit "open" after the install. It will give you an error. After you install a theme, you just need to select it from the Go Locker menu. I've had a few friends complain that a new theme doesn't work, but it's because they didn't read the directions .

hmm..i can't find "Go Switch Widget" under device administrator.

You might need to download/install it then. The only reason I did is because it told me to. Strange that you didn't get the same message.
If you don't mind, try it out and report back.

Lock Screen Opinion
I would have to say Go Locker. Has a lot of themes IMO and if use the pin to get into the phone don't even have to type the enter key. I just want my phone unlocked faster.

found this cool lockscreen Active Lock Screen on play store.. its pretty neat, got loads of customisations for shortcuts and also a few themes..

[Q] Folder Apps

I hate all the App shortcuts being in a big bunch in the Apps Menu. Is there any good apps that I can use to allow me to make folders I can sort them into ?
I would like to root my Xoom and put a newer version on but I don't get all the tech speak and jarganisum now.
Thanks

Most launchers support folders, but folders are only on the home pages. I don't know of any launchers that allow you to sort your apps into folders.

Go Launcher did, but it didn't look as good on the XOOM so it went. . Was looking for a simple app.
Sent from my MZ604 using xda premium

It wouldn't be a simple app. It would have to be a launcher that supported it.

Well this one doesn't need a launcher. I tried it didn't like it. The layout was'nt what I wanted. Also it tried to be to much.
But deff no launcher needed.
''Application Folder'

For serious, I think you should the Nova Launcher, you can create "tabs" with it and organize the way you want the apps, these tabs are the "apps" and "widgets" by default, but you still can create a tab called "games" for example! Good luck.

I was going to suggest the MIUI launcher but then remembered we never got one that supports the Xoom.

multiple wallpaper app

Does anyone else find that multiple go wallpaper shows down their phone? I'm running a evo 4g and it seems to get sore when running the mult wallpaper. Is there any multi wallpaper app that won't do this?

Not sure exactly how much of an effect your talking about but I use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and dont see much of a slow down. Try it out and let me know what you think

Well, it sort of lags for me too on go launcher. Just get an app that clears ram or running apps. That should do the trick.

Well is there a way to set an app to automatically clear ram and running apps instead of you having to constantly do it?

Try Go task manager and set auto clear every hour.
