[Q] Touchwiz ROM/Theme for Nexus 5 - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there.
Is there any way to have a look of Settings, Statusbar and some apps like dialer / messenging like this in Touchwiz ROM? Is there any Theme for it ? Or port od TW? (I don't mean all S - features, just a look)
Sorry for my english.

Agree. I have samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0. And one od the reason why I won't get the samsung for my handphone is because I don't like the touchwiz.

Nothing surprises me anymore though when the top trending themer theme is iOS7

Hi,
If it's just about the look... Find a rom that supports Theme Chooser (like CM) and install a theme like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz&hl=fr (there is anothers).
Obviously that "the tastes and colours"...

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

Touchwiz4.5 for SGN

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 . .

[HELP] Stock launcher ICS

Somebody has the stock launcher of ics (CM9) to post for me??
Thanks
Wrong Section.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Wrong section ...but you can look for "holo launcher" from google play.
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda app-developers app
Holo Launcher is not really optimized for tablets. App drawer icons looks disgusting. I too would want an ICS Launcher that is optimized for the tab, or even the stock TW Launcher modded for greater performance. Go HD is fast but looks kind of ugly.
Sorry guys...Any Mod can move this topic?
And, about the laucher...I already try the Holo Launcher, but it is not costumized for tablets...
Any alternatives???
Thanks for all...
I have the same problem. I use golauncherhd, but I also think ugly and TW is slow.

Transparent notification bar issue on S4 (9505)

Hi guyz, has anyone noticed that when we set a new wallpaper (apart from official ones) notification bar looses transparency!!! I can't find any fix or setting for that. You guyz noticed that???

Me too... I can't understand why Samsung is trying to force us to use their wallpapers if we want transparent bar
I dont understand either... We love android and support it but when they are forcing us to use their own apps and wallpapers, it doesnt make any sense...
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Also when you use another launcher the status bar changes to black.
I can confirm this. Apex and Nova launcher make the status bar black even if you stay with samsung's wallpapers. It is kind of annoying but still better then samsung's touchwiz.
The dumb thing is its not even fully black it's just dark grey so you use a black wallpaper it won't match up
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
I think it's this way because Samsung don't want people to use their own wallpapers and then complain they can't read the time or battery if the wallpaper is too light. Anyway a mod can fix this in seconds, we have to be patient
Just flash the transparent status bar mod.

To everyone using Nova Launcher, the latest beta includes transparent notification bar. No root needed!

The implemention in Nova of transparency is flawed, it breaks themes and looks ugly in many apps.

I haven't had any problems so far, works (and looks) great for me.
Nothing new. Someone brought this up in anorher thread. Simply flash the transparent mod, deal with it being black or wait for a dev to develop more color options for the status bar

Where can I find this mod? Does it work with our 9505?

The new firmware that Samsung are starting to roll out now gives transparent bars on custom wallpaper. Check the screenshots on SamMobile.

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

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
Btw how did u get clock to work? It didnt showed up on mine :x

Still waiting for official KitKat firmware
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.
GALAXY ACE II (my english is very bad, Im sorry)
is this ported for arm devices
