Hi guys
I'm using the amazing rom which called Paranoidandroid 2.12 and when I'm trying to edit and arrange the icons on the menu (not on homescreen) and even creating a new folder it's impossible .. tried using nova & apex launchers and it doesn't work either .. is there any way to do that ?
Thanks,
Moshe
What you are referring to is the App Drawer, not the "menu" (big difference!).
Creating folders and rearranging the program icons within the App Drawer is something that is specific to Samsung's TouchWiz launcher, and as such is something that you can't do in Apex or Nova.
What you can do, however, is set up the top headers to be pseudo-folders. Currently it should say something like "apps" and "downloaded" and "widgets" or similar. With the paid-for Apex Pro (I know Nova does the same, but I am unfamiliar with the launcher and the corresponding process) you can customise those headings. On mine, for example, I have the headers set to "Programs" (I HATE the phrase "Apps"), "Tools" and "Games" with the widgets list disabled.
So, if you are after folders, and can make do with only three folders (the widgets section is redundant as long as you can add a widget to your homescreen with long-press) then you can do that with Apex Pro.
Unfortunately, there USED to be a thread in the apps section for the JB GSIII Touchwiz launcher for CyanogenMod 10, but for some reason I can't find it anymore to link it to you...
so, arranging the icons on the menu like on ics (not on the homescreen) not available on jb ?

you still mean the App drawer, not the menu! The menu is the text list that appears when you press the left capacitive button on the phone or the three dots in apps. The App Drawer is the full list of all programs you have installed on your phone with icons. The two are very different, please refer to the correct thing as it's very confusing otherwise!
anyway, as luck would have it, I've found the thread for Touchwiz on CM10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1854826
If you install this then you will be able to do everything that you remember and require from stock Galaxy Note ROMs including folders in the app drawer.
As another clarification for you, ICS and JB are not the problem for you. When you say ICS you mean the stock Samsung Galaxy Note ICS Touchwiz based ROM, and when you say JB you mean Paranoid Android 2.12 CyanogenMod 10 based ROM. Those last bits are crucial. Apex runs on ICS just find and you still can't do the folder thing that you want to do with Apex on ICS. Only Touchwiz - regardless of Android version - can do the folders and rearranging of icons in the app drawer.

I didnt try that launcher but i think thats not a bug
In touchwiz,when you change the wallpaper,you need to select whether to scroll or not to scroll

can't find the option to enable that ..
When you select a wallpaper,you will see two modes below the wallpaper(normally we get it in the tw).If you can see that,select the first one and you get scrollable wallpaper

Fr4gg0r from the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 forums has modded the TW4 launcher for other roms, testing actually works nicely for our phone and Android 2.2+ I would assume.
So if you have wanted to try Samsung's launcher TouchWiz4 on the Galaxy S2 here's your chance found here plus photos and updates:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
Has some very nice surprising features if not a tad iphone like in some ways, extremely smooth - it's the smoothest launcher I've has seen yet besting even LauncherPro.
All credit goes to Fr4gg0r for his work.
Easy way to install is thru CWM, install from zip, select zip to install. It wont copy over any files, dependency is libglcanvas.so found in the zip, if you have an error make sure this was copied to system/lib folder.
-smc
Really neat launcher with a lot of features.

TW 3.0 - TW 4.0 is a good Launcher "but" uses a huge RAM also resources
still best uses Launcher Pro or Go Launcher
i used Arc Launcher on O 2X and it's smooth also have a nice effects on transparant
"i'll try it on O 2X now " report next
Yeah I've also been using the arc launcher, really like the effects and features/skin of the 1.1 modded version.
TW4 is not to bad for a different style tho.

@somemadcaaant
haven't try it yet have you tried it ??? Timescape work on LG O2X ???
i used 2x Transparant Arc Launcher so i got fully transparant on status bar, pulldown menu, app drawer but i got glitch on noticon thread i have report to him
@ironman159
try to install via ADB make backup first
@ossy1337
make backup on libcanvas on system before applying this theme, because SGS or SGSII have different libcanvas on it so before applying this theme make backup
i have try and the result is "0" i don't know fr4gg0r port it from Froyo 2.2 or Gingerbread 2.3 themes, because the lib on TW so fuzzy
@ junky4rd
Nah mate to be honest Timescape doesn't interest me, transparent ARC launcher looks good tho ill have to try that.

Does anyone having problem when you using S3 Touchwiz and try to add memo as widget when u are in Smemo app ??? after u chose add as widget ,nothing will happen and sometime will crash and back to TWLauncher(note original one)
Nope...no such prob in mine...try re-installing the rom...
i tried three times reinstall the rom with 2.3.6 kernel and wipe twice and then install the rom but still have the same problem
let me explain more:
go to Smemo app , choose any default memo come with the rom such as the drawing or the dog something like that and choose set as widget when u using the s3 Touchwiz launcher , it will tell you already set as widget but the screen didnt jump out and look for any room for the memo suppose to place at the home page

Hi all!
Have a question. i'm on stock based rom
How can i MANUALLY change lockscreen wallpaper. what files should i push to system folders?
I get FC when i try to change wallpaper using Settings\Display\Lockscreen wallpaper option.
Several custom roms already provide NOT stock lockscreen wallpaper and i want to know if i can change it myself.
Please dont advice me to change the lockscreen app.
and YES, i did search this forum and found partial solution here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520258&highlight=lockscreen
But in that solution the LOCKscreen wallpaper changes as fas as i change the HOMEscreen wallpaper and i want 2 separate\different wallpapers
noone knows the solution?
what UI are you using eg: touchwiz or go launcher? also are you on rooted stock rom?

You may have to mod the apk file manually to inject your wallpaper...
Using Gallery you can also just search for the wallpaper you want to add wherever it is located...easier solution IMHO...
Did you ever figure this out?
cant you go to gallery and open the pic you want as wallpaper and hit the menu button and select "set as"
Gallery > Image > Set As > Lockscreen Wallpaper.
Ah i guess. Im on a stock galaxy nexus but thought you guys were on stock rooted roms for your devices. so figured you would be in the same boat as me. Stock jelly bean can't set lock screen wallpapers.
Oh well
Hey there. I recently upgraded from stock 2.3.6 to cyanogenmod 10.1 android 4.2.2 on my Galaxy S Plus and it is quite the difference. I really like it so far but because it is such a big change, i have some random questions about it.
1. In 2.3.6 you could re-organize apps in the drawer as you wanted by tapping menu -> edit. How can you do this in 4.2.2 ? (i know this depends on the launcher, i only tired nova launcher and cm default trebuchet launcher). - (the 4.2.2 default launcher does this ?) (what is the best launcher for 4.2.2?)
2. in 2.3.6 by tapping the menu button at homescreen it displays add widget , shortcuts wallpapers etc. How can you do this in 4.2.2 ? (the only way to add widgets is by going into app drawer -> widgets ?)
3. Where is the repeat button in the Apollo Music Player ? (or should i change to something else?)
3. How can i not install / remove default apps that comes with the rom? (like the default browser because i switched to chrome)
4. If i understand correctly cyanogenmod is based on ASOP and is pure android. What about the android 4.2.2 that comes with galaxy s4 or s3 ? Could we have that on our Galaxy S Plus ?
I would like to keep it as clean as possible without installing tons of apps to modify the rom. Thanks
to 1. i don`t know if it is possible...
to 2. this i the "new" way add widgets to teh homescreen...the possibility from 2.3.6 comes maybe back with Android 4.4
to 3. on my CM10.2 i haven`t find any possibility...
to 3. i remove apps with a file-manager with mounting the root system as writeable and go to system/app then remove or move it to sdcard ...that`s all ...
to 4. CM 10.1 is Android 4.2.2 and you`re right it is based on AOSP ... but the difference between the Version of Samsung are more not needful apps and the other UI ...why do you want the version of S3 or S4 ...the based android version is 4.2.2 in both ways i9000, i9001 or s3 or s4 ...
Hope i can help you with some questions ...:good:

I flashed the CyanogenMod 10.1 by ADC-Team - Release 8 and the K^Kernel 3.4.x OC/EXUV 390MB with my wife's i9001,it's very smooth、stable and a good battery,That I installed apex launcher because of my habit
And about you questions,there's no affect for me that you will be able to adapt the ROM after a period of time

1. Apex launcher rocks, try it...
3b. Try app from Play Store called SD Maid to remove apps. It is very powerful tool and can do a lot, I use pro version but I think the free one can do pretty much all as well.
1) This is launcher specific
2) This is also launcher specific, both MiHome and Go Launcher have similar implementations of the way it is done on stock, as well as ADW
3a.) In Apollo, near the bottom, there should be a symbol that has two arrows forming a loop
3b.) As tetakpatak said
4.) S3/S4's 4.2.2 has modifications and additions to it as well as a custom framework of the system. You can have a theme as well as however many ported apps there are, but a direct port of either of these requires a hell of a lot of reverse engineering as well as some compromises
And freakymod- personal preference. Nothing wrong with wanting Touchwiz.

samsung had removed that feature from the stock touchwiz launcher.. Only way to get it back is by using 3rd party launcher, like nova launcher..
Okay or edit the APK files?
If i know where i must search in the APK i can do this Change again.....

Yes, oluwaponmile have made / give me a TW Launcher with infinite scrolling homescreen is working. I have the permission this launcher to integrate in my Stocky MOD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/mod-v1-0-stockymods-t3254588/) . Then everyone can flash it easy over the Custom Recovery. It coming soon (I think on the weekend)!
