Thanks man. Side note for those trying to achieve L's appearance, Nova launcher has added a few extra Android L animations to it's launcher today like the circle animations for opening the app drawer or a folder. They've had the Wipe screen transition and apps opening from bottom to top for a while now as well.
Nice! I knew I wasn't the only one who's been slowly adding more and more L themed stuff. Are those wallpapers high res? I don't wanna lose the stock ones if they aren't.
U could just extract them to you're gallery and check them out first

Download to your phone. Unzip using winzip or es file explorer. Select jpeg and set as wallpaper.
Is the boot animation a flashable zip using TWRP?
I opened the boot animation files. It is not setup for our screen size. It has 625 380. Ours is 1440 2560.
I'm using the boot animation only deal is after the animation screen goes black for a few seconds

I'm on stock and rooted. Like other posts in Android Development forum, it FC when trying to create new message and when clicking the attachment icon. Also no emoji's are shown in the emoji list, though when you click on a blank space an emoji is inserted into the message.

Turn the keyboard to landscape mode and use the emoji key on the keyboard and not the on screen one in the app. Doing so shows the emojis.

Ported - Tab 4 8.0 inch - 4.4.4 Touchwiz Launcher for Note 8
What's this?
Did you hear the news? Samsung just updated T-Mobile's Tab 4 (8 inch - 4.4.4 KTU84P T337TUVU1BNI8) to 4.4.4!. I got the firmware downloaded from sammobile, I extracted, odexed and then ported this baby over to our beloved Note 8 tablet. This is brand new ported TouchWiz Launcher from 4.4.4 KTU84P T337TUVU1BNI8. I also made animation much smoother, and a few other improvement. Plus, I am including SecTabletMyFiles2.apk from 4.4.4 as well.
Download
Version 1.0

Download Link : Ported_Tab_4_8inch-4.4.4 SecTabletMyFiles2_by_Jazzespresso.zip
Version 2.0

Download Link : Ported_Tab_4_8inch-4.4.4 SecTabletMyFiles2_by_Jazzespresso.zip
Version3.0
In this version of launcher; same features with version 2.0, plus it now has Hide Apps/Shows Apps feature enabled.
Download Link : Moded_Tab4_4.4.4_SecLauncher3.v3.zip_by_Jazzespresso.zip
Install Instruction
This is NOT flashable, do not try to attempt to flash it thru recovery!. This is only deodexed Samsung stock ROMs version 4.4.X such as Civato's FlexBurst or FlexNote ROMs.
Steps:
Make sure you have other 3rd party launcher already installed (such as Nova, Apex launcher..etc) - free version available
Download zip package to your tablet and unzip it, and using root explorer, go to System--> priv-app folder and backup your current SecLauncher3.apk and SecTabletMyFiles2 (samsung's stock myfiles that come with it), and delete them. Repeat, you need to delete old ones.
Copy SecLauncher3.apk and SecTabletMyFiles2.apk comes with my package, and push it system\priv-app folder and give it 644 (-rw-r--r--) permission.
Go to Stettings, and application manager --> all, find touchwiz app, and clear data and cache and reboot your tablet.
Enjoy your brand new 4.4.4 samsung touchwiz launcher and new SecTabletMyFiles2.
Known issue/bug:
Setting up lockscreen wallpaper thru touchwiz (long press on blank screen and touchwiz setting set wallpaper for set lockscreen wallapaper) FCs.
Instead please use Settings --> Display--> Wallpaper --> Lockscreen. I am NOT considering this as major issue, just small bug that I can live with it. So please do not complain about it.
p.s: if some reason you don't like and like to switch to stock one, just delete this two and put back stock ones and reboot.
Usage:
If you want to use this PORT in your own ROM, you only have to give proper credits (and a thank you would be so nice too), just as a way of courtesy, and you do not need ask for permission, but it would be nice if you let me know if you are using it your own ROM and adding proper credits in your OP posting.
This is Brilliant. Downloading now ............
Thank you so Much :good: :victory:
Works Great.
Thank you very much.
But sorry if my question is stupid, is it possible to add "Phone" or other app replace "My files" in the left bottom of home screen?

For setting, you can try this if you are adventures enough - I would strongly recommend you to do full nandroid backup before you try this!
Download SecSettingsProvider.apk to your tablet's SD card from link below;
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001606446
In your tablet, go to root's system\priv-app, and make a back up of your current SecSettingsProvider.apk, and then rename current one like SecSettingsProvider.apk.backup.
Now, copy the one you download and push it to system\priv-app, and give permission to 644 and reboot your tablet.
and go settings and see...
Be warned that this has some bugs, one issue is multiwindow bar sometimes does not works... I still could not able to figure out why so.

for status bar, use S5 SystemUI theme exposed (search in XDA) or download it here :

Getting settings is though, but maybe getting System UI (status bars..etc..) would be possible

Couple of things you can do here:
First option; try to go Settings --> Application manager --> All --> and locate the accuweather/weather app, click on it, and press clear data and clear cache. After that remove weather widget from home screen and reboot your tablet. And place the weather widget on your home screen and see it it is properly sized. If not, move on to second option
Second option; because we are using Tab 4's launcher, current accuweather/weather widget won't properly resized because that one is for stock TW launcher, therefore you need to find or hunt accuweather app from other Samsung devices, search in XDA and you will see there are many diffrent version for diffrent size, hopefully you will find one that fits nicely. If you think this is too much work, move on to third option
Third option; There's new Accuweather and Briefing Widget I ported from Tab 4 too, which I am using it and it has some additional features as well, so you can go here New Accuweather and Briefing Widget, and follow the install instruction.
Hi, I want to have transparet app drawer like in Android L iwth white icon.
I found this file extracted from L, but it can be installed over the original lollipop launcher and I want to have both.
Maybe someone can help me with that and try to edit this file to install with different name like launcherL to not replace Google Now Launcher ??
Editing the package name, my knowledge isn't too good on that, but I know it requires decompiling the APK and editing the Android Manifest file.
As to installing KitKat's Google Now version on Lollipop, I don't know how that works since Lollipop uses a different Google version. You can give it a try though. [emoji14]
Google Now Launcher (Google Search) is obfuscated, therefore you won't be able to change the package name.
If you wan't transparent app drawer on Google Now Launcher you have to install Google Search app from 4.4.4.
Hi, I am also testing what you want to do. I am being editing all "Velvet.apk" and try making the app drawer being transparent.
For the 'all apps' icon or launcher, there is no problem to edit it.
Maybe it is the way to install it as normal launcher like Nova etc. to not replace original one..
