Does anyone know where I can find and install the new messaging app provided in Touchwiz 4? I'm talking about the stock Samsung messaging app. I tried it on the SGSII and it was pretty neat.
Try heading over to the SGSII or SGSIIEFT forums and ask for some on to pull it off and post. i know i saw in the SGSII forums some guy had pulled all the stock apps from his phone and uploaded them to media fire.
Pkay thank you

I found these somewhere...i forgot where, but they work well on the hero. ill post them here.
i do have a question tho and hopefully the XDA community (You Guys) can help me out.
in both of the touchwiz apk's i have, the default screen is the first fine, im fine with that, but is there a touchwiz for our phones that have the default screen as the middle screen (like the epic)
what's so special about the touchwiz? What features does it have over launcher pro?
it's just for people who maybe wanted to try touchwiz, like me. Its kinda nice and I haven't noticed a lag

Isn't there a setting for default screen? I seem to remember this,setting hidden somewhere in the touchwiz settings.

I didn't see an option like that. If u see that option then let me know

i think touchwiz looks like a ****ty iphone ripoff. OP thanks for posting but ill stick to AWD.
Samsung widgets r empty cuz we don't have any installed, and even if we could install them I doubt it'd show up. I do agree this is a rip off of iPhone, many others have said that, but I thought this would be nice to share. If u stick to adw or launcherpro, I understand (I'm using launcherpro plus, there is no lag in the latest update)

Can this apk be installed over any Sprint 2.1 ROM (currently running fresh 2.4)?
for droid eris users the first touchwiz apk works just tried it on cyanogen tazz
This is kinda out of place in the Hero forum, but I installed the first one on my Samsung Intercept, and it works great!
It would be nice to see this touchwiz port get fleshed out throughout the OS; messaging and sounds and the whole nine
I'm trying to put the Inc browser on my dad's fascinate so he doesnt need to use bing anymore.
Is this possible without rooting?
Thanks
Why not download a different browser in the marketplace?

Good question. I feel stupid.
But can I then put the google search widget on his phone as well?
I don't think that's possible on the facinate without a custom rom.The HTC browser. Apk requires some HTC framework wich the facinate present have. Otherwise you'll have to use a different launcher and download some third party apps.

It is possible to have Google search on a Fascinate. The store rep did it himself for us when our company bought a Fascinate. As for a different browser, download Dolphin from the Market and take it for a test drive.

Applications rely on Framework the Samsung framework will not support the Incredible's HTC apps.
I want the icons and the UI for the messages sections
Try go launcher, they have a galaxy s II theme....all in the market

Yeah I wish someone could port a touchwiz rom just to try. Themes don't change the apps built in, but it would probably be a pain to port. Use the galaxy s themes in the market, if you use miui theres a complete theme that themes everything.

You can try porting over some of the touchwiz apps you like best. The music player and messaging app are pretty easy. Actually building a touchwiz rom isn't that hard its just nobody here wants to take the time to do it. If you like it so much I'll look into porting over. I can have you a temporary port with just the basic apps and Widgets from tw including the launcher here in the next day or two and hopefully a near complete galaxy experience for the inspire in the coming weeks

Hello everyone. I have a few questions of which I'm trying to get resolved. Today I upgraded my phone to Ice Cream Sandwich and I've noticed a few issues. First, the icons on my phone such as the messaging icon, phone icon and camera icon look exactly the same as they did before I upgraded it. I've noticed from photos online that with ICS they look different. Like the phone icon is blue, and the messaging icon looks different. Is there something wrong or is it that the icons were not changed on the Galaxy S II Skyrocket? Also, when I go to the applications screen where all my applications are, it still makes you scroll to the right or left to see the different pages of apps. I thought that they changed it to where you scrolled up and down instead of left to right. My phone has also been changing my home screen wallpaper on its own. (before the update and after still) If anyone can answer my questions, I'd be deeply appreciated! Thanks again! Nicci
Note: I haven't tried official stock ics or the stock leaks. I am on Sky ICS with official rogers ics base
It doesn't sound like any real problems are occurring. Icons can be changed through replacement launchers such as Apex or Nova. I am not sure about the messaging app color. As for app drawer scrolling, this should be able to be changed in settings if u prefer vertical scrolling over horizontal. These aren't actual issues but rather preferences and things that can be changed by simply taking a stroll through settings
I have no idea about the wallpaper changing on its own

Thank you so much! Would you happen to know where I would find the app drawer setting in my settings? I am unable to find it. :what:

I checked the touchwiz launcher (which I had only used for 5 min after flashing sky ics) and it appears u are correct in that there isn't an option to change the layout here.
Download Apex or Nova launcher (for a more pure ics feel) and u will be able to change the app drawer to your liking. It is smoother than Touchwiz and looks much nicer as well. I prefer Apex but both are good. Give them a try and also download home switcher from the play store. This way when you select a launcher as default you won't have to clear defaults to simply load another installed launcher. The one problem is the set default within the app doesn't work to my knowledge so if u want to change your default launcher you will have to clear defaults anyway.

Your information is beyond helpful! None of this was known to me beforehand. After doing research, what I'm noticing is it seems to be that most ICS features are only on the Nexus. Such as the ability to access the camera from the lock screen, and numerous other features. A lot of the features from the ICS website simply are not on this phone. Odd.

I didn't review the ics website but camera can be accessed through lock screen through the use of an app. You can use widget locker $$ (haven't used) but have read good things) or go locker (free). I used go locker previously because I would use go launcher while on gb. Go locker requires you to have go launcher downloaded in order to use btw. Another one you could try is magic locker (also haven't used).
What are these other missing features you are referring to?

I see. I'll have to go on the website again and read it over. Thing is, why are we having to download apps for these functions to work? If it is ICS, shouldn't the features be universal on every phone, and not just one? (Such as the Nexus S)

This is different then ics on the nexus because that is pure Google while the Skyrocket gets Samsung's touchwiz UI over the top.

Yeah. And even restarting my device. It's even been so laggy that when I type words they simply don't even pop up on the screen. Especially when on a call.

If you are having trouble with the keyboard then go into app and clear data in android keyboard. It can be found under all apps. If this doesn't help ur messaging problem (I don't think it will) then u may want to clear data in the messaging app (as long as you are fine with loosing your mms)

Hey guys newbie here so I apologize for that. Okay I paid someone to root and rom my gs3 with cm10 all is well but my S calendar and music player that came with the phone are gone now. Can those be put back in, if so where should I look? I've been reading as much as I could but couldn't find any information on this.

You might have to be running a touchwiz rom (stock rom) to run those
