Touchwiz4.5 for SGN - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps

Hey Peeps ,
So i am trying to Mod the Touchwiz4.5 launcher to somehow make it better for our SGN ...
The things on my priority list are
1. ability to hide the status bar
2. getting bigger icons ....
I've tried to make the icons bigger (see attached pic) and now need to somehow change the code to be able to hide the status bar ......
Will share if i have any news at all....

Can you make an alphabetic sort possibility ?

One useful feature if possible is to lock desktop icons..I find this very useful as in apex launcher etc..another feature is to increase number of screens to like 15 ...some may find this strange but I like to have many pages/screens...thanks

It would be great !!

It would be awesome to have touchwiz launcher 4.5 on our Note.
It is very fast and responsive compared to the stock one

You can do that with the help of an app from the Play Store/Market, called Appzorter.

Umm correct me if i am wrong but i think Appzorter only works with the stock touchwiz4.0 and not with 4.5 ....

Icon Size
Guys ,, the icon size(App Drawer) in the attached image on the first post ,,ur opinion ,,,, is that too big or just about ok?

Sounds stupid but coming to touchwiz. Biggest thing that annoys me is not being able to move the app draw icon to thr middle. And also the folders open massive. Even with 2-3 apps in

I know, I mean for the mean time if h/she's using TW 4, they can use Appzorter to alphabetize the apps.

Any news on the modded TW4.5 launcher? Really loved it on all my android devices a port would be great .

I´m really missing the landscape mode on TW. Is there any possibility to apply an hack for it?!

Try litening rom it has TW working also in landscape and really smoothly ! Envoyer depuis mon galaxy note . .

They are the same size in escence. Its just the way the dev has scaled the icons. I doubt there's anything you can do to change the size of them in the app drawer.

MIUI does something like that for some of it's themes! It basically adds a thick border alongside all icons to ensure all icons are of the same size!

Looking for a new launcher..

Okay so I'm running PACROM and I want a new launcher.. kinda like an iPad one, the reasoning for this is because i never use widgets so I go straight to the app menu every time i wanna load something so i wouldnt mind cutting that out so just having all my apps on the home screen like thanks
This isn't quite what you're saying but similar I use GMD and I created one gesture that brings up about fifty of my most used apps. its real handy
. One two finger Pinch for that one then another two finger Expand for all the settings shortcuts. I rarley go to the drawer now and my 2 (only) Homescreens are only a clock and my wallpaper. Super fast setup.

I would like to share this news maybe some of you might not know
Nexus 5 was released so was 4.4 Kitkat so the launcher was leaked.
Download and install each
PreBuiltGMScore (google play services 4.0)
Velvet (google search)
GoogleHome (google launcher)

Sorry if this is informal i just want to share and im in a hurry.
Thanks and credits to phandroid
how to get this to work on (gingerbread) android 2.3+ devices?
I dont think it will work at all for devices below 4.0. I think you need 4.0 at least. Well maybe you can try just install it normally
Sent from my GT-i8160 using xda app-developers app
it needs API 16 so 4.1 JB at least

Launcher dont have setting menu, it's ugly and slow.
Zero customization.
I would guess it's not the final launcher just the app taken from somewhere. Also I think if tgere is a setting menu you'll only have it with 4.4
If u think launcher is too big i changed it via dpi 210/220 so it will have 4x5 grid and kinda small search bar. And i made this my default since i get below 300mb on carbon rather than trebuchet on 345mb. Its lighter than touchwiz though u might as well give it a try. Sorry quote is broken on xda app for me
Sent from my GT-i8160 using xda app-developers app
Yes i also changed DPI but icons are still big..probably we will see this launcher on store one day

I have this launcher and I love it, but I dislike the dependence that google has created between the launcher amd google now. I think they want to control us more than what they have just done.

Any large Launcher for my grandma ?

Any advice? I bought a note3 for her but she complain the phone is too complex,the font and button are so small for her. Any large launcher simple enough for her, like a senior phone?
Big launcher from the play store.

Well I was just about to suggest you try Easy Mode, there isn't anything easier/bigger then that.
Now I don't usually say things like these, but you bought your grandma the wrong phone. A flagship phablet is not for someone who finds Easy Mode confusing. Consumerism must die.
Windows 7 / 8 Launcher. Very simple.
Easier mode is the best. You need to guide her with heart. If easier mode she also can't accept. Then you need to make everything she need to use in one page.

You might root the phone and then in build.prop change screen dpi. Use nova launcher and place everything in one or two pages. Hide dock and status bar(so that she doesn't gets lost) and for battery info use battery widget reborn.
As simple :thumbup:
