Tw4 launcher? - Verizon Droid Charge

Hey everyone. I don't like tw 4.5 cause I think its buggy. The launcher in infinity is good but it isn't just a simple apk copy and paste. Do you.know of any other tw4 launchers compatable with the charge

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Other than infinity, I know the old version of eclipse runs TW4, but its way outdated.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

Maybe there is a go launcher that is just like tw4?

Go launcher themes change how stuff looks, not how the launcher functions.

If you're talking about the 3d cube app menu, then just get Launcher Pro. It has the option to enable that.
As mrinehart93 said, just get LauncherPro. It's currently based off the stock launcher but has additional customization options.
I don't want launcher pro I mean the actual launcher2 apk for froyo. I don't need the 3d cube.

That's not a stupid question by any means. You wanna know what a stupid question is? Asking a dev for an ETA. THAT'S a stupid question.
Anyway, you can use whichever launcher you like. Hell, you can have 5 of them installed if you want. Go bonkers and have fun
yea u can use any one u want... I like Zeam launcher personally, very simple and minimalistic.

I'm using Go Launcher, before that adw ex also launcher pro. Go launcher it's the winner, Highly Polish, good graphics feels like a stock launcher or better. ADW scrolling it's jerky not as smooth, launcher pro it's not as customized as the other but it's stable. All around Go launcher it's better in my opinion.

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.

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.

Why are you resurrecting old threads and posting the same thing in each one?

Apex, Trebuchet, Nova or Holo?

What ICS launcher are you all using/which do you prefer? I tried out Nova and Apex for a little bit, and I have to say that I prefer Apex.

I used Nova for a long time on my Nexus S. It's nice and customizable. It did lag on me but very rarely. It also looks higher quality than any other in my opinion.
Now i use the stock ICS Launcher.
trebuchet.
I'm using APEX, and it's been working fine for me.

I'm using Apex right now - I decided to simplify the phone a bit and use something other than GO Launcher for a while. I'm liking Apex quite a bit so far - smooth and light, and with just enough customization options in the free version.
