[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] fgr:
*** Latest Addition - 4x6 Home Screen, 5x6 Apps, 3x4 Widgets, Scrolling Wallpaper ***

With all the real estate on our phones, I wanted to make a little better use of it. After quite a bit of searching, I found some different TouchWiz configurations, but it always seemed like they were trying to do too much. I simply wanted another row of usable space. So following the guide I found HERE, I made my own.

I managed to get a decent Landscape layout together. The only problem is that the home screen can only be 4x4. No matter what I tried, the landscape grid layout ALWAYS was the same as the portrait grid layout. I was trying for 4x5 portrait and 5x4 landscape. The apps and widgets settings took just fine, but not the home screen.

I found quite a few landscape enabled launchers for other devices with the layout I was looking for, and my settings were the same as theirs, and theirs worked :confused: The difference was the were all SecLauncher2.apk, and we have SecLauncher3.apk. Samsung changed something, and its not landscape friendly.

These don't flash properly on I9500/I9505 phones. A work around is to pull the apk file from the zip and push it to the phone using adb. More info can be found, and zips that flash properly in the thread HERE

IN ADDITION: If the developer of the rom you are running has already made any changes to the launcher (scrolling wallpaper and such) these files will overwrite them and may cause you problems !!! Even the Return to Stock. It returns you to STOCK 4x4 Touchwiz Launcher, not what your developer put in his/her rom.

Launcher Screens. You have choices. One option now has rotation enabled (4x4 only on the home screen though). Page indicator above the bottom row of icons, page indicator below the icons, or stock 4x4. The pictures below show the main screen with the page indicator above and below the bottom icons, and another page just showing all icons:

5x6 apps screen and 3x4 Widgets Screen:

4x5 and 5x6 Home screens with no bottom icon text and 4x5 Home Screen with NO text:

Landscape Screenies:

Two shots of the Home Screen:

Apps and Widgets:

Some things to note:

This is for deodexed roms and is MF9 or MDL based.

The Return to Stock file will return you back to the stock setup if you don't like the 4x5 setup, or if your favorite widget doesn't play nice with the 4x5 setup.

I am always customizing my phone when I find cool stuff here on XDA, but this is the first time I've ever posted any of it, please be kind... lol

Nandroid is ALWAYS a good idea

, or pull your existing SecLauncher3.apk from /system/app so you can push it back if need be.

Constructive

feedback (positive OR negative) is greatly appreciated. I take SO much from this site and the people here, just want to give a little back.

IMPORTANT:

When switching from a larger Home Screen grid to a smaller Home Screen grid, remove any icons that will not fit in the smaller grid before flashing. For example, you're going from a 5x5 to a 4x5 homescreen, and you had a widget in columns 3, 4 and 5. Column 5 will no longer be there and the right third of the widget will be cut off. If you try to move or delete it, the launcher will force close.

If you forget and do it anyway, no big deal. Reboot back to recovery, flash the old grid size you had and reboot. Move the widgets/icons then flash the smaller grid.

Miscellaneous Downloads:

These files are from specific requests for phone variations I do not have. Note that they are apk files and ARE NOT flashable. They must be pushed via adb or copied using Root Explorer to the /system/app folder. Also note that I have no way of testing them. Quite a few people are using them without issue though.

If pushing using adb, be sure to fix permissions before rebooting. If using Root Explorer (or equivalent) make the permissions match the other files in the /system/app folder
