[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Hello there,

This is a modification of the latest TouchWiz4 Launcher made by me. This post is going to be updated whenever a new version of firmware goes out.

I do already know that TouchWiz 4.5 exists by fr4gg0r, which is far more customizable, but I have followed a different interpretation to this. This is

not

based on work done by fr4gg0r.

You can find my original thread on the International SGSII forums here .

Features

5 icon dock

5 column app drawer

Smaller fonts in icon dock so they don't get hidden

Better spacing of icons in homescreen

Better spacing on the badges

SOON TO COME

Application to control features

Themeing Interface

What are the advantages?

Uses the same id key as the original Samsung stock launcher, so all widgets work at once, without having the need to resign with different id

4 Columns, 5 icon dock, 5 app colum appdrawer menu (v1)

​

Download versions 1.2 AT&T

1st release

Credits

fr4gg0r for the inspiration and advice.

PAulyhoffman for his stock deodexed build where i extracted the apk's from.

As I do not own an AT&T phone, i am working blind here. Versions are untested. Please report issues here or in my original thread (preferably) with screenshots so i can identify the problem. If anyone feels like picking this up, please feel free to do so, so long i get some sort of credit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
How to use

In the app drawer, hit edit, and add one more icon dock at the bottom of the page.

Rearrange your app drawer icons in a 5 column Layout.

Solutions to Force Close problems

Hit Menu>Applications>Manage Applications>All>TouchWiz Launcher
Force close and clear data

Instructions if things go wrong:

Extract apk from .zip
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
rm TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
rm TouchWiz30Launcher.odex
hit Control + C
adb push path to your download\TouchWiz30Launcher.apk /system/app
#example adb push C:\Users\123\Downloads\Touchwiz30Launcher.apk /system/app
adb shell
chmod 644 /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
adb reboot

Landscape mode requests

I am able to make the launcher redraw in landscape mode without losing sign keys. However the icon dock does not stay on the right of the phone, but goes in the bottom. The launcher is not optimized for landscape mode at all. Perhaps i'll be able to get this done in the long run.

NOTE

The European launcher and the 4G Launcher are not hot-swappable. That means that when using the 4G Launcher, you cannot revert back to the European Launcher (or vice verca) by flashing the zip.

You need to WIPE data under Settings>Menu>Manage Applications. Install the other version of the launcher, then wipe data AGAIN.

Failing to do so will cause FC's when trying to add a 5 icon dock.

Changelog for V1

v1.0 - Initial Release
v1.1 - Resize on all widgets - Choose your Default Home
v1.1.1 - Bugfix when rearranging homescreens
v1.2 - Layout changes

Please post issues either here or in my original thread on the international SGSII forums.

I'm sorry for the filesonic links, my server cannot handle the bandwith anymore so i had to move the files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
link not working, bad hash it said. Now I guess Ive tried too many times and it says, free users can only download one file at a time, but I never dl'd anything. Got any other ways to upload it? Like Multiupload?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
link not working
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Link works fine for me for some reason. Let me reupload.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Why don't use mediafire?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Made a multiupload link.

I don't like the file manager mediafire uses, i prefer the one of filesonic. It keeps track of how many times files have been downloaded and such.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Awesome! going to try it now! Thanks! Whats the best way to install, through cwm?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Please report back ^_^.

Make sure to "wipe data" from Menu>Applications>All>Touchwiz Launcher
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Will do. How to install? I'm using cooked ROM S8.1. Can i install this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
I dont see a reason why you couldn't. Wait for someone to report back if you like, verify it's working as i dont have an AT&T phone.

As for how to install, its a zip file that you flash through recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Thanks. Flashing now. I have everything backup so it should not be an issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Please let me know if there are any issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
I might do something wrong. Still can't drag the 5th icon to the doc. It just replaced the icon. And the apps in the drawer still 4 not 5. Nothing changed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Have you cleared data as I said?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Yes i did, all my home screen setting are gone and back to the original. Only 2 apps left. Go to the drawer trying to move the icon to the dock, nothing changed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Does the app drawer have 5 columns instead of 4? Could you do me a favor and long press on a widget and check how the resize window looks like?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Only 4 apps in a row for me too, and can't change the home icons
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Everything SAME as stock (or S8.1 Rom). 4 columns
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Would you mind performing the instructions if things go wrong in 2nd post and let me know how that goes?

I see no reason why this is happening, honestly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
I fc'd the TW launcher and cleared data, nothing changed other than wiping my apps from home pages. I am running stock rom with other kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
What app should i install to perform the Instruction code? Sorry I'm noob
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Did the CWM flash go through ok? Sometimes it says it successfully flashed but it hasn't. Could you try manually extracting the apk, remove the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk from /system/app, replace it with the extracted one, and reboot please? I suppose you have root explorer?

It's not an application, its Android Debugging Bridge (ADB). You could try googling it, or you could follow the instructions above.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
I am no longer at home, I am on my phone. Guess ill try that later
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Guess ill try that later for the adb stuff, yes I have root explorer. Can try flashing again too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
I just extracted replaced, rebooted using root explorer. and we have:

5 columns, 4 rows in some page and 3 rows in other pages and CAN'T add extra icon to the dock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Yeah baby! It worked! I reflashed it with recovery. I think FC TWlauncher then wiping data, then flashing the zip is how to get it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Make sure to wipe data once more so all app pages have the same amount of apps per page.

Also, please provide me with some screenshots, it's really hard working blind ^_^
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Here it's. what I care is 5 icon dock. can't add one more

EDIT: Wait, It works THANKS

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SII - please forgive if any typos
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Right, good. So the 5 column app works fine but no 5th icon dock... Hmmm, let me see what i can do about that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
ONE WORD : THANKS

now time to rearange all apps to the home screen again :)

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SII - please forgive if any typos

---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

Any way to make 5 columns home screen? :-p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Oh so it worked fine all along? That's great stuff.

Well have a look at my original thread over at the SGSII forums, get a taste of what's coming ;).

By the way, how about you do me a favor and test my Keyboard mod as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
I've got 5 apps on home buttons, and 5 across in app drawer. Thanks so much for this. The 5 home buttons is golden!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Yeah, that's the right combo to have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Is there any way you could make one of these totally stock but with scrollable widgets? I'd really appreciate it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Couple screenshots (hmm they look like crud)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
ROM S8.1 i'm using already have a comma in the 1 layout.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Does it really? I had no idea =/ Does the stock one come with comma as well? Cuz the European doesn't come with a comma.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
I'll see what i can do.

What do you mean by that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
He meant " This is awesome. What about 6 icons doc?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
6 icons across is impossible. I'd have to cut down the padding, which'll lead to icons getting cut in the edges.

As I said, check out the original thread in the international SGSII Forums (links in my sig) to see what can be done.

If you guys like it, and so long as someone informs me when a new version is out, i can maintain this mod for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Awesome, thanks I love touchwiz the way it is but i love scrollable widgets lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
LOL I meant (at least on my phone) my uploaded screenshot pics looked blurry and pixelated. Maybe they look fine to you all. I'm trying out a new screenshot app. Not anything related to this mod. I'm loving this mod!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Could anyone do me a favor and upload the updater-script within your rom .zip? It should be in META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script.

I need to find out what block system is on so i can mount it. /system probably doesn't get mounted right and doesn't flash via the zip.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] akira02rex:
I didn't wipe data at all just flashed it on stock rooted ROM and it worked for me. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Thanks for the info. :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
I saw your thread on the Samsung galaxy s2 forum has 6 icons dock pictures? how you do that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
It's a dpi version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
This is from Cognition Beta 4. I'm technically on Beta 1 and it works fine. Had to reboot, but all is well.

On an unrelated note, I saw a gray battery mod (seen here)which is the gray version of your blue one. If you've seen it, can you point me in the right direction?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Take a look at Jkay's themes over at the internation SGS II Themes and apps forum section.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jc830:
This is great stuff!

But one thing I noticed is that when I drag the drawer side to side, it looks like it's very unstable. I feel like it wobbles a bit. Is that normal? or am I just seeing things?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
What do you mean you drag the drawer? By using the long-press on the dots?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jc830:
I meant scrolling over to turn a page

I may just be too sensitive.

Or it may just be my background that makes it look as I drag the page.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Di you make this mod for the Infuse?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
I wish i had enough time and will to make this for every samsung phone, but unfortunately, i don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcorrie1121:
On unnamed 1.1.0

Installed, didn't work. Wiped data, didn't work. Reflashed, worked.

Thanks. :)

On a side note, seems like everything I flash that's not a ROM/kernal needs two flashes to stick.

EDIT: Had to wipe data again to reset number of apps per page in the drawer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joshuadjohnson22:
im a noob to some mods and need help to figure this out.... do i flash this using cwm? I see people saying to clear my touchwiz... how do i do that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Yes you flash through recovery.

As for clearing data, follow the second post.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bustabo:
Confirmed this works great. Any chance u can add 5 column home screen??

Or 5x5 home screen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
It's a hell of a lot of work to do so. Check my thread in the international SGS2 forums to have a taste of what is possible.

I'd like to hear more requests for me to port this over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jc830:
Do you happen to have original TwLauncher apk?

Or is there a way to go back to the original one?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Extract it from a ROM. I don't have it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] termleech:
I would love to have a 5 row 4 column home screen. I think 5x5 would be too squished. I loved that option with adw on my atrix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
samsung widgets work only with 5 columns, 4 rows. making it 5x4 causes issues.

i only do 4x5 versions in my 240dpi touchwiz. for the rest, as I said, check my original thread (in my sig) and let me know which ones you like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
I do like 5 columns on the HOme Screen. Can you make it happened? :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BillShepp:
I'd certainly love to see a five-column home screen as well. Thanks for your work on this!

- Bill
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
I'll see what i can do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Not sure if anyone has tried it before me, but this mod works on MIUI!! I Just decided to try it for the heck of it. Flashed it through cwm! Now I can put the Alt App Drawer in the middle.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sirooga:
Would love to have the 5 column home to go with this. Is the widget resizing required or can we leave it with an extra column for app icons? Would love both of those features though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Guti1977:
I would love this mod on Stock ROM UCKJ4 (2.3.6). Is it possible to get one for it or perhaps the one posted here works :confused:

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Upload a TouchWiz30Launcher.apk here and i'll see what i can do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
This mod works on the stock 2.3.6 Been using this already for a week
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Guti1977:
Thanks I'll give it a shot later.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hchxoom:
Thanks - great stuff. Agree with the requests for 5 columns on the homescreen, but would REALLY like to be able to place a folder on the dock (say, for multiple browsers).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Guti1977:
BTW. This works fine on UnNamed 2.2.1

Hello,

as mentioned in the topic I want a filex explorer (Windows or direct on WebOS) with root access (access to system files and so on) on WebOS 3.x.

Anybody knows a tool for this? I have looked in Preware but I couldn´t find any explorer!?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you!

I want to make a full backup of my Touchpad under WebOS. Does anybody knows how to make? The only tool I know is Save/Restore in Preware. But where can I see the backup files? I want to load them to the box.net cloud! That would be the best way for a secure back up ...
[TouchPad General] knightnz:
USB Mount.
[TouchPad General] raz0r09:
Please give me a little bit more input! With USB mount you won´t get access to system files and so on. With backup I mean a full system backup including omportan system files. So how to do?
[TouchPad General] Nburnes:
Couldn't you just connect through novacom and run something like

cd /

cp / C:\Users\name\Desktop

?

Hi, i have a htc panache that i rooted and flashed with virtuous unity rom with gingerbread 2.3.4 and sense 3.0. I installed a new gallery called 3D Gallery and i got rid of the stock gallery app. But here's the probem. If i open the camera, there is an icon in the corner showing the last picture taken an if i tap on it, it is supposed to redirect me to the gallery. When i tap on that icon, it does nothing. If i take a picture, it will show me that last picture taken but if i tap on it, it does nothing. is there a way to link the camera to 3D gallery so that icon/button would work? You can reply to that post and i would also appreciate an email at vincentseguin1@hotmail.com if you can. Thanks in advance for your help. Also, for the people trying to root the htc panache. I tryed a few months ago, it didnt work and recently it worked. There is 2 possibilities. Maybe because mytouch 4g got the new gingerbread and had the same problem than the panache so the rooting tutorial was updated or i was just miss-naming a file while using adb but anyway, follow that thread and you'll succeed at 100% http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16858971&postcount=98

[MOD][11/5][v1.4]AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Keyboard|Comma, layout edit, popup shortcut

Ladies & gents,

It's me again.

For those of you that do like the Samsung Keyboard, however are frustrated with the lack of a comma in the first page of the keyboard, worry no more.

I won't bore you with many details.

Original MOD thread here

Features

Replaced Settings key for Comma key

Longpress on Comma will give you Exclamation mark "!"

Longpress on Period will give you Question Mark "?"

Long press on ?123 key will give you the pop up with key symbols

[*]Comma button now adds automatically a space after the comma

[*]Hit the ?123 button. Now ABC has a popup feature with the revamped emoticons layout

[*]Revamped popup key with symbols, added a new layout there

[*]Revamped emoticons popup, rearranged to have the most used emoticons at the bottom row for ease of access

To Do list

Popup key delay down to 500ms from 1second

XT9 layout always stays on to avoid window resizing.

Bugs

The comma within the comma key now looks smaller due to adding the feature of the extra space after it. Probably is not fixable (could be, but i cannot work on that atm since it's not that imporant.

Screenshots

This mod will get updated as soon as a new release comes.

Versions

AT&T Release 1

Version 1.4 Download

If your language is NOT included, please attach an AxT9IME.apk that includes it and i will add this to the latest version.

This modification took a LOT of time and effort. Don't just be leechers. Give me credit when it's due. Also, I am trying to build a reputation so the least you can do is use the THANKS button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] petsasj:
Changelog

Version 1.0 - Initial Release
Version 1.2 - Remapped keys comma, period, and ?123
Version 1.3 - Comma with space, New Longpress on ABC Key
Version 1.3.2 - One more row of emoticons on ABC
Version 1.4 - Updated every keyboard to that, changed server, fixed small bug

Instructions

Copy .zip into your internal SD
Reboot into recovery
Install zip from sdcard
Choose zip from sdcard
Select zip and install
Reboot

If you're having trouble installing

Extract AxT9IME.apk from the zip
adb remount
adb push C:\(extraction path)\AxT9IME.apk /system/app
adb reboot

################NOTE################

​

If your language is included in the above versions, yet you cannot seem to change layout (either stay in the normal English character layout or simply nothing happens when you change language) that's due to lack of T9DB files.

Every CSC includes a T9DB (T9 database) folder, which in return includes all character layouts for the keyboard itself. If you have the problem stated above, you need to find a T9DB folder from a ROM that used to have your character layout, and copy that into your current T9DB folder (/system/T9DB).

PLEASE SHARE THE T9DB FOLDER - i will be trying to make a unified T9DB for those that have issues switching language.

Hi,

I have a rooted HTC Desire on orange UK, running Miui xpart d2ext rom.

I have tried downloading the Natwest banking app, but am not able to do it as it doesn't show in the market and whe trying to get it via natwest website it takes me to the market page saying the app is incompatible with my phone.

I have tried market enabler with no luck.

Also seen advice to change fingerprint reference in system file but I don't think my rom allows that.

Any ideas?

[General Questions and Answers] kastorma:
Thanks, app looks great, but I still have the same issue with it not being compatible with my phone.
[General Questions and Answers] uthoocha:
HD2 running MIUI

Not compatible for me either. This could be the end for MIUI on my HD2
[General Questions and Answers] kastorma:
I'm not giving up on Miui purely for that reason. Can cope using alternative banking app for now.
[General Questions and Answers] Quiffster:
+1 for Desire running Cool3D Aces V5.

Natwest app doesn't appear in market app, and android market website says its incompatible with my device.

I've read reports that screen dpi can lead to issues, but mine is set at default 240 - so I haven't fiddled with that.

Is there any way to know what the system requirements are, such that its possible to identify the 'reason' for the incompatibility?
[General Questions and Answers] kastorma:
I think it's the Miui, being the chinese rom originally, and the market app issue, which doesn't recognise you are located in the UK... I have used various locale apps, but none of them helped so far.
[General Questions and Answers] BigBearEvo:
If u cannot find natwest app in the market, then your device don't allow it, just like mine, but I copied the app from a rooted phone as its sent to Internal memory as standard. Allowing to send it myself and install as normal, works fine. If u want I can send u the app via email, drop me a pm if you need it.
