[MOD] Tweaked TouchWiz Launcher

Okay first off this is NOT my mod, all credit goes to magn2o and this thread here​http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843598 I am simply providing a thread for the information in the Verizon forums, that i will update as he updates his. Please please please, use his thread for any bugs you may encounter as i am not the developer behind this.
TweakWiz!
A "Tweaked" TouchWiz Launcher​
What is it?
TweakWiz is my attempt at bringing some of custom launcher aesthetics to the default TouchWiz launcher. Sure, I could use a custom launcher -- and I have. I've tried dozens, but none of them can offer the same fluidity and speed that TouchWiz does. As I dig deeper within the TouchWiz code, more features will be added/unlocked!
Features
(NEW) Rotation support! (Adheres to system rotation setting)
(NEW) App drawer icon centered!
Labels removed from docked icons.
Drop shadow removed from dock icons.
Margins optimized to maximize space (where possible)
4x5 homescreen layout
Page indicators removed, space reclaimed.
Scrolling wallpapers.
Page looping disabled (scrolling wallpapers looked like crap with this enabled).
Installation
Download/copy appropriate version to internal storage.
Boot into recovery.
Make a backup!
Flash/Reboot
ROM Developers/Cooks
I have no problem if you wish to include this in your custom ROMs, I only ask that you provide a link back to this thread so users can keep up on any updates. For those looking to perform manual edits, see here.
Changelog
1.0
Initial release
1.1
Reduced app drawer margin slightly due to text cropping.
Added 5th row to home.
1.2
Adjusted launcher to eliminate overlapping of launcher icon "hot areas" and 5th row widgets. [sinichi21]
Adjusted launcher width to reduce "squished" appearance [eortizr]
Minimally Increased bottom padding on launcher to match positioning of icons (if any) on lockscreen
1.3
"Fixed" docked Messaging icon text re-appearing after a notification in portrait mode (still exists in Landscape)
Rotation support, and it respects your global rotation setting.
App drawer centered!
Re-adjusted margins a bit.
4x6 App Drawer in portrait and 7x3 in landscape.
80% app drawer translucency removed. (I'm not happy with how it appears on the screen, I'm working out a better method).
1.3.1
Fixed initial center app icon bug where app icon could sometimes be covered by another app icon when running TweakWiz for the first time.
Known Bugs
Icon text re-appears below docked "Messaging" app after receiving notification in landscape only!
Thank you! A moment of your time, please..
As with all of my contributions (here and elsewhere), I do this for fun and expect nothing in return. However, I have received a couple donations in support of my work recently, and while much appreciated, they are unnecessary. In lieu of donations to myself, should you feel inclined, I would much prefer any monies be donated to the CNCF Hope (The Children's Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation) instead. This is a cause very close to my heart and this organization would benefit much more from your donation than I ever would.
Again, no obligation or expectations -- a simple "Thanks!" would more than suffice.
Download Links can be found here i left them in the original thread on purpose because this thread is just a portal for his main and it should get the views and thanks that it deserves This thread will be dated with the latest version information and so on
****Once again, this is not my work, it is his. I just want to get his work out there since i have successfully used this on Synergy with no issues and enjoy it*****
Tested and working on:
- Synergy Nightly's
- Beans 10
- It should work on any stock deodexed rom.
It will not work on CM 9 or 10. This requires the touchwiz framework to work.
So you wanna go back to the stock launcher?
Stock launcher just move to system apps, fix permissions, and reboot.

Has this actually worked for you? I tried installing the 1.3.1 flashable zip over my Clean ROM installation and keep getting the error message that TouchWiz home as stopped. Perhaps it's because it's an Odexed ROM?
I'd love to get this working, especially for the rotation. Thanks for link!

flashable over beans 9?

If on aosp why would you flash tw???? Lol seems like a step backwards. Makes aosp pointless

I use aosp for the smoothness and to be on the latest version of the OS... Not for the aesthics. The smoothness of touchwiz launcher is on another level Imo.

I think I may have been taken out of context. Was simply wanting a TW launcher. Which was easily achievable on my nexus (aosp) by flashing a zip.
I have flashed back to synergy for now,

for the galaxy s2 there is a multi window mod. Maybe we coud install it also on our tab 7+. because it has the same exynos chip.
i could´t test this because for my wifi only tab 7+ is no jelly bean yet.
but if it does not fuction maybe a dev can port it also to the tab 7+.

+1 for this. Although apps like Overskreen, Floating Browser and etc exists, it would be great if it was integrated to one app(MultiWindow).

Is there a lot of interest for this, or are there alternatives?
Is there a lot of interest for this, or are there alternatives that people/Devs are preferring?
I like the Multiwindow function on my S3, and would really like to see it or something similar on a Galaxy 7" tablet. I want to use it to run a GPS routing App & a Music App at the same time, while running WaveControl in the background. It works great on the S3, but I feel that ~half the screen is too small to be used well for GPS. So, I have had a GT+ for a while, but sold it until I can find which of the two (GT+ or GT2) will get MultiWindow or similar.
I have seen the Overskreen, but that's Browser only. I've seen the floating Apps, but that seems to be specific Apps, and part of the main App gets covered up by the floater. So neither seems to be able to replace Multiwindow, unless there's a way to make any App a floating App.
Any thoughts/ideas?

All your options are really not going to happen, but one day, in the future, after we get full stable releases for more models of the 7+, someone will port over the multi-window stuff that is form the Note 2 / S4 that is in custom ROMs for the S3. Lets get stable stock ROMs for all the G+ models first
.Android currently is not built to handle floating window, its a real hack just to get a browser to float.

Alright, sounds good. I'm hoping that we do get multi-window when the stock ROMs are fully fleshed out. I was also trying to gauge what ROM developers were going for, whether Multi-Window or Floating Apps were more relevant to them. Supposedly there was one ROM that had Beta multi-window, but the developer seems to have dropped that in favor of the floating option. I just don't see it as a viable replacement, at least not yet.

Apart from my 7 plus tab I own a Samsung galaxy grand that has 1 gb of ram and a 1.2 ghz double core processor (like our 7 plus), and it has multi windows option out of the box (jb 4.1.2), which means that it's doable for our tab. It's a matter of editing the main flashbar.apk, and some framework files.
Easier said than done, yes, I know...:silly:

I just pulled the main flashbar apk and the multi windows related frameworks and permissions from my galaxy grand and pushed them into my tab (p6210 running pa 3.15).
I rebooted, the apk installed, and I saw on my task manager that it was on, good sign.
But (there is always a but) I had nothing to trigger it. On the galaxy grand there is a multi windows icon next to the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS etc icons on the status bar, but obviously no such icon on the tab.
To get one such icon one needs to edit some jars in the framework folder, and maybe the system ui apk as well. I could do it if I had plenty of time (because I'm still relatively new to those things) but unfortunately I don't have much time in the moment.
If anyone wants to do it just tell me and I'll upload the files here...

Thanks for trying! By the way, the ported multiview on my Sprint Galaxy SIII is activated by holding down the back button. Could you try that? I don't know if it will work since on the S3 it is basically a hardware button, but just in case.

I tried, without much hope because I'm on pa 3.15 and as you may know the multi windows app works only with the TW framework (pa doesn't use TW ui). And guess what, it didn't work. I tried as well to trigger the app with smart taskbar, multi windows manager and a couple of other apps but nope, no fun...
I had a closer look at my galaxy grand and in some drawable folders I found the multi windows icons and triggers. One would need to add these files to the G plus systemui.apk and framework.apk, and add/remove some lines to some jars and stuff.
It's doable and I probably could do it, but I won't, for the sole reason that I own a p6210 and that jb hasn't been released for that model yet, sorry...
If you know how to decompile/recompile then try this, it works on the S2 and it may work on the G plus:

But don't forget to do a nandroid back up before, in case something gets messed up...

Maybe this is working on our tab

Its not a full rom just a flashable mod but u do have to be on a DEODEXED version...it is completely safe just makes it easier to change theme & mod but as always please read the instructions carefully and be sure to backup your device before flashing. Since I'm assuming u own a P6200 then u will need the original MC3 firmware as well as chrisrotolo's deodexed MC3 zip installed before u flash the multi window mod. Yes, tethering works & the phone function does too BUT u may have to download another dialer from the play store(i'm using ex dialer & contacts) if the samsung phone app wont open

[APPS][NO ROOT] SmartisanOS Launcher, Clock, Calculator, and Notes!

Hey everyone, I'm back again with more ported apps.
This time it's from the all new Chinese ROM 'SmartisanOS' for the Galaxy S3. If you have a Galaxy S3, I'd recommend checking out the ROM itself rather than using these apps, as you'll get a better experience that way.
If you haven't heard of SmartisanOS, firstly you should know it's not an entirely new OS, it's more like a UI skin like Sense and Touchwiz. It's based off Android, but isn't a fork of it like AliyunOS or anything.The creators very heavily focused on user experience, in attempts to make the UI very attractive and easy to use. The UI is very, very skeuomorphic. All applications tested ran buttery smooth.
Note that this ROM is in pre-alpha (it was only just officially released to the public on the 15th) so it's got a few bugs, even on the phone it officially supports, the Galaxy S3. Additionally, not all applications have full English support, so certain parts of them will be in Chinese.
As always, if you'd like anything from the ROM to be uploaded, just ask and I'll see what I can do.
Here's a video review (in English) of SmartisanOS by Cursed4Eva TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aRUZwJXlHA
Smartisan Launcher:
The launcher is very, very similar in concept to the iOS homescreen. It's just a grid of apps that you can move around, and essentially you're limited to just that. There's not hardly any customization here, but then again that can be a good thing if you think about it. Unfortunately, lack of customization takes a pretty big hit - for example, you can't change the wallpaper. For some very odd reason, this launcher requires a loading screen whenever it boots up, similar to other 3D launchers like Next Launcher and TSF Shell (but this launcher isn't 3D).
Features -
- Up to four icons on the dock
- Custom transition effects for opening apps and general inteface
- Batch app movement support
- Unlimited homescreens
- Hide homescreen support
- Lock homescreen support (crashes for me, however)
- Gorgeous UI
- Drag-to-uninstall support
Launcher download link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3lIkuqWWrmqdERtNUFmMTJRV28/edit?usp=sharing
Pictures:
Clock
This is a truly gorgeous clock app. Note that this, along with the other apps, don't give widgets. This clock is filled to the brim with fancy animations, sound effects, and special features, like a world clock, alarm, stopwatch, and timer.
Features -
- World clocks (system time set as default; you can add more but the clocks are only available in Chinese)
- Alarm clock
- Stopwatch (with lap support)
- Timer (up to 60 minutes)
- Fancy animations for all sections of the app. For example, whenever you switch tabs the clocks will reanimate into position.
- Fancy sound effects for most sections of the app. For example, turning on the timer will make a ticking sound. The ticking sound stops when you leave the application, though (and the timer still continues), so it won't be annoying or anything.
- Gorgeous UI
Clock download link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3lIkuqWWrmqNnl4SXFWbHhEWEU/edit?usp=sharing
Pictures:
Notes
This is a pretty basic Notes app but just like all the other SmartisanOS apps is really nice looking, but unfortunately (for me, anyway, this might not happen on your phone) the app didn't fit the screen. This app also has integrated sharing support.
Features -
- Swipe to delete support
- Search support
- Sharing support via SMS, email, text, and Sina Weibo
- Gorgeous UI
Notes download link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3lIkuqWWrmqdW40bGJFN25HZVk/edit?usp=sharing
Pictures:
Calculator
This is a very simple calculator without support, unfortunately, for more advanced calculations like the stock Android calculator. It's based off old basic calculators, and even has that click-and-clack sound to boot whenever you tap the buttons!
Features -
- Sound effects whenever you click the buttons for a more realistic effect
- Gorgeous UI
Calculator download link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3lIkuqWWrmqMkI5c3o5ZkVHTEU/edit?usp=sharing

Hope you all like these. :good: I'll be on the lookout for updates to SmartisanOS and I'll update this thread accordingly for new apps and other goodies.

Launcher wouldn't open on my Note2. Clocked worked well though. It is a great looking click with just enough animation. Unfortunately the snooze/dismiss screen is too simple for me. Both buttons right next each other. Could easily attempt to snooze and hit dismiss instead. Wish it was a gesture like sliding to dismiss. Oh well. Still pretty cool. Thanks, man

Yes, I had this problem with the little gear icon when in the zoomed-out view with all the icons. I had to click the gear just under where it was located. I presume this is either because:
1. The ROM itself is still in pre-alpha so the problem is for any phone, not just ones it wasn't intended for (meaning, then, that the Galaxy S3 has the same problem)
2. Wrong resolution and screen size is confusing the app.
Either way there isn't a easy fix to it, for now anyway.

You should ask that on the Smartisan OS forums or if there's a thread for Smartisan OS for your device you could ask it there maybe. This thread isn't for help with bugs in the ROM, sorry.

[Tutorial]How to make your phone look better

Well,I have some tips for you to...Modify or Make your phone looks better without flash a new ROM.
First of all,You need something:
Your device,I don't care what is it,Even a microwave.
Root(In order to modify something)
*Custom Recovery(That could help you root,too.)
(*Required root)
*Xposed Framework(Something can make your notification bar transparent,Mostly work on Samsung Phones[4.1.2+].)
*If you're a LG phone,You can use the app "Smartworld"..Browse and download themes you like.
So let get started.
#1:Nova Launcher+icons will be best choice for non-rooting and keeping your warranty's choice.
Also,Nova Launcher got performance on some bad spec phone like Single Core + 512MB RAM,Still can run smoothly.(Tested on S7392)
*Transparented notification bar available,But only the launcher,not in app.
Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389071
So,Xposed+XTweakbox will be your choice(Not work on some phone like...Notification bar not included in launcher.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So make sure you have a custom recovery before you do it.Because when the framework not compatible your device,You will stuck in a Bootloop...And if you don't ever heard what is bootloop,Leave this choice alone.:fingers-crossed:And i heard of safe mode in android could disable xposed framework,If you have a bootloop,try and comment down here..
Xposed can do many things,Like as i said above,Changing notification bar's color,Even set it as transparent...
Changing the signal thing's bar to 4-6...G-Touchwiz....etc
Recommended:
XTweakbox:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-tweakbox-flashing-tweaks-collection-t1629653
Maybe not work for you,But try:G-touchwiz

You can use xuimod for change the transitions

The easiest way is to Flash a custom ROM on your device with the new CM11 Theme Engine inside and then you´re able to apply icons packs , styles , keyboard styles , notification bar styles , quick settings styles , system settings app themed , fonts , lockscreens , sounds , wallpapers , whatsapp themed and much more!
I´m using ACIP ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S2 !
But i will get in 2-3 months my brand new LG G3 !

But i will get in 2-3 months my brand new LG G3 !

I agree with this. Seems easier and more functional to flash a custom ROM if youre going to all that trouble.
Good walk through though.

Why no one use Trebuchet Launcher ?

I use texdroider_dpi to change to 220dpi. Every launcher looks greater.

I use nova on all my Android devices, has all the features I desire to modify my user experience as far as home screens are concerned. Xposed +Wanam gives me the ability to color what all black changes to a more grey theme.

@Veyne I use nova also on all my devices when there is no theme engine available in my custom roms.
But styling using theme engine is much better than ordinairy nova / go launcher themes .
Because theme engine will also change settings UI keyboard UI
And much more like bootanimation

There is a new launcher called SOLO LAUNCHER. It features the tap twice to switch off the screen and Google now! looks similar to S5 theme!
Hit thanks if found helpful!

Well,I have some tips for you to...Modify or Make your phone looks better without flash a new ROM.
First of all,You need something:
Your device,I don't care what is it,Even a microwave.
Root(In order to modify something)
*Custom Recovery(That could help you root,too.)
(*Required root)
*Xposed Framework(Something can make your notification bar transparent,Mostly work on Samsung Phones[4.1.2+].)
*If you're a LG phone,You can use the app "Smartworld"..Browse and download themes you like.
So let get started.
#1:Nova Launcher+icons will be best choice for non-rooting and keeping your warranty's choice.
Also,Nova Launcher got performance on some bad spec phone like Single Core + 512MB RAM,Still can run smoothly.(Tested on S7392)
*Transparented notification bar available,But only the launcher,not in app.
Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389071
So,Xposed+XTweakbox will be your choice(Not work on some phone like...Notification bar not included in launcher.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So make sure you have a custom recovery before you do it.Because when the framework not compatible your device,You will stuck in a Bootloop...And if you don't ever heard what is bootloop,Leave this choice alone.:fingers-crossed:And i heard of safe mode in android could disable xposed framework,If you have a bootloop,try and comment down here..
Xposed can do many things,Like as i said above,Changing notification bar's color,Even set it as transparent...
Changing the signal thing's bar to 4-6...G-Touchwiz....etc
Recommended:
XTweakbox:

Maybe not work for you,But try:G-touchwiz

Change your phablet "Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0"(running Android 4.1.2) to tablet [root

Change your phablet "Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0"(running Android 4.1.2) to tablet [root
Well, I am not good at making flashable zips so I would be writing up the process I used to turn my phablet to tablet,
First of all, I am going to tell you that after this some Samsung's stock apps might not work(including TouchWiz launcher and some other) or might work distorted(including calculator and others) , and play store might not show all apps
In this process, we are going to change LCD density to make the ROM believe that we are using a tablet and it will force tablet ui instead of phablet ui
As I stated above that TouchWiz won't work after this so it is recommended to have other launcher already installed(I use Google experience), so that you might not get stuck on a blank home screen repeatedly giving FC error for TouchWiz,
So after you have got a launcher installed, download any build prop editor(I use ROM toolbox) and open it and search for ro.sf.lcd_density property, you will find 2 with same name, but different values(on 4.1.2),one will have 160 and other will have 240.
Beware, don't change both values, just change 160 value to 140, don't touch 240 one or you will end up having systemUI force close error again and again
When you have done this, just reboot and you will have tabletUI instead of normal phablet ui, you will not have notification bar on top, but will have that on bottom in the side of navigation buttons (you will get them too)
Few changes that will come are:
1. Power+Home key no longer take screenshot, instead you have a soft key for that on navigation bar
2. Settings icon changes a little.
Counting...
Problems:
1. Navigation bar is white instead of normal black one, so notifications won't show up easily (you might get use to it, as I got used to it)
2. You can no longer take screen shot of your notifications
Any other you found? Just tell me, I will add it here
If u got any problem, just reply, I will try to help
I will update this for 4.4.2 soon, as I am not at home for now, on vacations at the moment will update it as I reach home. [UPDATE: Italian firmware update 4.4.2 do not have tablet ui, we can not change is ui to tablet, I don't know why they removed it]
Just to tell you, there are some xposed modules to do this and you can use them too, but they are temporary, this one is permanent, if you factory reset your tab without making any 3rd party launcher a system app then you won't be able to use your tab for the time you don't flash rom again or install a launcher from adb or any other way you can opt to fix it, you can still access notification area, thus also the settings but not anything that can't be opened from there!
I actually got inspired by thinking that there must be some way to get tabletUI instead of normal phabletUI because I like tabletUI personally
If you think of anything that need to be changed here, or needs to be updated, just reply and I will do what's appropriate
Tested on:
1. SM-T211(android v4.1.2), working!
2. SM-T211(android v4.4.2), not working!
You can try and tell me if it works on other variants or not and I will update

As I said, there are some xposed modules which do this but they are temporary, once you factory reset, it will be lost and you will have to redo that, but this is permanent, no matter if you reset, it will be the same way, and one thing that you should keep in mind, TouchWiz home (launcher) will stop working after this, so just make a third party launcher a system app, by just copying the apk to /system/app/

there is no tablet mode in kitkat. So any 4.4.x won't work. I can't stand the white status/nav bar so I don't put the dpi too low. I wonder if phab7 can get around the white status/nav bar.
