There aren't any real Touchwiz 4.0 roms. There have been themed roms and roms with the TW 4.0 launcher.

What about EE4 Eclipse? Nitro themed it really well and it had a bunch of SGS2 widgets fully working. There's also this launcher you can download that almost perfectly emulates TW4, I know it's on XDA but i don't feel like searching for it i do remember using it a while back tho and it had every feature I heard TW4 had, but since i've never actually used TW4 i cant comment on its legitimacy.

well thats an extremely old build, so i didnt mention it
and he had far less sgs2 integration in it than it looks like, as its mostly themed
his touchwiz4 was just grabbing the tw4.5 apk which works on any rom, infinity uses the real version from the sgs2

Newest Version of Infinity ROM 12-11 has a TW 4 launcher and it gives the phone a whole new feel..way better than the last

Is there any advantage to those people who have decided to use another launcher? For example... GoLauncherEX.

Preferences really...although stock droid charge 2.2 launcher was a bit laggy and was using ADW for a while

Is go causing redraws to be a slow as adw?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App

Go has a setting to make it persistent in memory. So does launcher pro. I don't know for sure but I'd be very surprised if ADW didn't have a similar feature. This should minimize any screen draw issues.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium

Just an FYI, a lot of people are having problems with random reboots when using the TW4 launcher on Infinity 12/11.
I'm sure the issue will get resolved in a future update, but for now it might be best to use a different launcher with Infinity. Certainly try out TW4 launcher - everyone's phone is different - but don't be surprised if you experience freezing/reboots.

Launcher [request]

Is there any way someone can port touchwiz 4.0 from the T-Mobile galaxy s 2 to work with our kj6 roms? (Valahalla, octane v3, etc). I know about touchwiz 4.5 but its very unstable on my phone for some reason and its app sorting in the app drawer does not work. I love how smooth tw4 is compared to others like launcher pro and adw and I just think it looks soo much better. I appreciate it if anyone can help. I'm sure other memebers would like this as well. Thanks!

That's tw4.5 though..... it has made my phone reboot ever since froyo days. Whenever I do something ram intensive on that launcher, my phone reboots. I never experience that with others like launcher pro. And how the app drawer doesn't sort properly is a pain. Thanks for the help though..

Actually I made the cwm zip from an apk I found while googling for touch wiz 4.0 apk lol it worked so I thought it was worth posting. I've never used 4 or 4.5 and I got the wrong one, lol sorry for the confusion. It was mislabeled and I have no experience with the either of them. Sorry for getting confused guys ill try to find 4.0 tonight again lol

The 4.5 comes from the fact that it was a modified version of 4. This launcher automatically comes configured with the stay in ram feature selected- it's been awhile but I am sure that Launcherpro has that feature as well, but it is by default off. Try disabling that and see if it just fc's the launcher (thus resulting in a restart of the launcher) as opposed to your phone crashing. Thats really the only thing that would separate it from other launchers. You can turn the 3d effects off as well to help with the ram. I always make sure to kill passive processes- then again I do not use octane so I am not sure how it runs.
I never had problems with the app drawer. You can change the sorting preferences in the preferences menu of the launcher. It is by default on unrestricted, but you can change it to alphabetical.

I tried turning that off, launcher won't even open anymore so I had to reinstall it. Tried running it for a day but it just doesn't work on my phone which is currently running valahlla final. I have the app drawer set to alphabetical but it still doesn't sort properly. If I install a lot of new apps or delete a lot of apps, there are lots of blank spaces and the only way to get rid of the spaces is to manually move each app one by one which is really a big pain. I just want stock touchwiz 4. I hope someone can get it to work on this phone. After playing with my brother's galaxy s 2, none of the launchers on the market feel anywhere close to that smooth.

Yeah go launcher is pretty good. Still isn't as fast as launcher pro though. I really wish we had a stock touchwiz 4 launcher for this phone. Tw4.5 freezes too much and no other launcher out there really comes close to how fluid tw4 is. I've tried like every launcher in the market too.

I've been going through ROMs every few days or so trying to find one i like and i flashed this one today. I'm not sure how i feel about its speed, i guess i was just curious if anyone else has tried it and what they thought

Well I just flashed this ROM, thank god I've been itching to test another ROM since the developer drought, I have to admit, this is amazing, so far, I can change my lock screen, this is very smooth and amazingly 2.3.5 like. More amazing features that I have found but I must say, very worth flashing.
yeah its not ginger clone it uses a lot of the framework of overdose it seems. I actually would like to get gingerclone going again but the links are broken.
Yeah, this rom is pretty smooth. I haven't noticed anything buggy on it yet.
Only thing I noticed is that it doesn't have a Task Manager.

Stock KJ2 does that, so I don't think it's really a rom issue per se. Seems like it doesn't keep the launcher layout in memory during high usage or something.

Yea one of our phones main problems is a severe lack of RAM, so the launcher usually has a hard time staying open when something else is bugging out the memory.

You can try using something like launcher pro and setting it to keep in memory, not necessairly guaranteeing that won't have other problems though...

Please know that ROM is essentially my gingerclone ROM with all the same asop apps and framework as well (with changes of course). I'm sure its updated to KJ2 with lockscreen mod by now but the poster of the ROM didn't even bother to change the OP format from my GC post. I'm not saying don't use his ROM.. if you like it do so, I'm jus speaking up because he didn't properly credit me or Sduvick. He's on XDA and used to post on the forums so idk why didn't he say something about it.

I've asked this before myself and from what I've been told there is no way to just add TW4 to any ROM. I think it needs to be cooked into a ROM and a whole bunch of stuff needs to be tweaked to get it to work properly. Obviously IMNUTS would be able to answer this way better than me.
Other than infinity, I know the old version of eclipse runs TW4, but its way outdated.
Yeah that's what imnuts said. He said he cooked his is. It would be nice if someone ported just the launcher without the stuff of tw 4.5

Yea, the touch whiz completely ruined ICS for me. I had ICS running on my Inspire 4G before I upgraded to the Skyrocket, which was aosp ICS. I could definitely see all the differences straight away, and was quite underwhelmed by the ICS leak. I think some of the best parts of aosp ICS are missing. I used apex launcher for a while to try to make it a bit better, but in the end, went back to my NexusMod 4 backup.
Looking forward to some vanilla ice cream goodness.

Besides the launcher (which I ditched and bought Nova instead), I don't know what else is TW. I have no experience with ICS till today's flash-fest, so it all seems good to me (minus the TW launcher).

They also hobbled the lock screen. AOSP ICS allows for many music players to have controls on the lock screen. Samsung only supports it's own music player to have controls on it's TW lock screen. I just don't get it, why take away features?
On top of that to still not add a widget (since you are forced to use the stock TW music player to have lock screen controls) for the TW music player is just stupid. Makes you wonder how thought out TW is.

Are the same issues present as in the CM10 builds? I am assuming they are.

There are tons of features in MIUI besides the launcher, I'd suggest you take a look at http://en.miui.com/
Just off the top of my head, things MIUI has that no other rom can match - theming, backup/restore, contacts/sms/dialer, speed, the music player, toggles etc.
I used to swear by MIUI when I had my Evo 4G, by far the most unique and best rom on Android, it replaces so many apps you need to install. I just hope it becomes stable for ICS/JB soon.

I used to swear by MIUI when I had my Evo 4G, by far the most unique and best rom on Android, it replaces so many apps you need to install. I just hope it becomes stable for ICS/JB soon.

exactly...well stated!
So far I'm finding this miui ROM has better 4g data capabilities than any cm ROM that I've tried. I've tested numerous ROMs in an area that has shifting 3/4g and this miui build has the same 4g strength as my Beans tw ROM.

Which Miui build are you guys having the best luck with?
Yes please do tell..... the rom for data switching that I've tested so far has been LiquidSmooth which I'm still using because it gives me waaaaaayyyyy better service than any TW rom. I would love to know which MIUI rom that y'all are using that has such good data switching because the ones ive used are OK but no where near as good as Liquid.

Build 4.1. These are nightly builds so they update pretty often, every one to two days there seems to be a new build.

I used to love to flirt with miui back in my galaxy S running gigerbread but it could never be my daily driver. It would constantly loose data connection, no app drawer so all the apps had to be listed in your home screens and no way to sort them alphabetically automatically... just couldnt do it.
Have all those issues been resolved?

Not sure if that has changed. However, I just created a folder, put all of my less used apps in there then dragged it to the launcher. Voila, app drawer. kind of.
The thread has been locked. Hope it was for a positive reason but there was a bit of non productive postings. Regardless, I've been using it as a daily driver with lightflow to control the LED. Great ROM.

So is MIUI daily driver now? God i want it bad. I had it on my htc incredible and i want it on this. Waiting for stable release

Theres a few minor issues but not enough to keep me away. Lightflow fixes the led issue and some have experienced a power button issue. But no spontaneous reboot or things like that. Data signal is what really rocks.
