[TUTORIAL] TouchWiz 5 S3UI

Hi,
Ive just recently bought a Galaxy Note to my collection and I cant wait to start devving for it. But before I change ROMS I wanted to make something for thay everyone can benefit from. So I made a TouchWiz5 UI for the Note which will be featuring in my ROM but for now its for every ROM. This tutorial will give you the SIII launcher, a few apps such as SVOICE and even the Lockscreen. You will need to download some paid applications so beware to buy from the PlayStore or searching the APK on Google would easily do to
I just wanted to share it with most of the Droid community and I cant be bothered to re write it up so visit the original link here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30279813#post30279813
Also you can see the video here www.youtube.com/theandroidcity - Its the S3UI for any ICS device

Pixel launcher and wallpapers working [5.0+only]

So hello guys welcome to the guide to how install google pixel launcher working and tested bug free.
So lets get started,
Required:
1. Any Android 5.0 + device
2. Working internet
3. Rooted ot Non rooted [ works with both device]
So first let us understand what is a pixel launcher. Pixel launcher is a launcher which is used in google pixel devices. Running on android nougat. So if you ever see it its too amazing launcher ever. I have also tested and its bug free. In earlier verison it was only working with android marshmallow device. But now you can use it on android lollipop cheers to google for bringing happiness to lollipop device users. So you can easily enjoy pixel style to your device.
So this process doesn't require root so non root users can use it without worrying about warranty loss or any damage to your device proceed to the installation guide.
So its not a different app normally install it as you do with other app installing but keep unown source ok in your device. Also make sure that install wallpaper app before because if you dont you will get error pixel launcher stopped when you try to change the wallpaper that beacuse wallpaper app is the theme manger of pixel launcher. So if it not installed app will crash while changing wallpaper. Also make sure download latest version from the link. But dont download this version of google pixel launcher named as :
Pixel Launcher O-3743572 (READ NOTES) this version of app is used in android o preview. So this app will not work on lollipop devices so try older than this app.

Pixel icon issue.
But remember all this will make your device look like pixel not everything beacuse you app icons remains the same. So if you want to change them same as pixel you need android 7.1 device it will not work on lollipop or marshmallow device so of you have nougat device then just download this and install it as normal apk. You are done this app is a offical app not a clone or dummy or my own app so if you have any problem you can ask me i will reply it ASAP. Thankyou

Supporting fonts

Hello!
So, I'll go straight to the point: I use twitter a lot and several people use symbols/letters I can't see due to my font not being updated (I assume).
I decided to use a module to get the iOS 11 font, it looks cool and all but unfortunately I still can't see those symbols.
The question is: is there a way to support all these symbols by adding them to my current font or something?
Edit: Yes, my phone is rooted and I'm currently on MIUI 10 (Xiaomi EU ROM)

Hi
Did you try this theme ?

I guess you can chose only font, once installed on santoni ?

Customized fonts

Good day to all
i just got my new S20 FE 5G (UI 2.5) and trying to set it up. I'm trying to "install" some custom fonts that i already use almost everywhere. (i need to install custom fonts cause i'm greek and i need the greek language)
Till now everything that is provided in internet (youtube tutorials) have failed
- #mono installs it's own fonts, but the fonts are not available in the fonts list in settings-display in order to select one
- Zfont installs the fonts, but when igo to settings to set one of them i get the message "is not supported. do you want to uninstal?"
- ifont (in order to create apk from ttf) can;t read the storage, even when i have already gave permission.....
any ideas gyus? anyone managed to instal a custom font?

Use another launcher. Nova, Microsoft and others...

On my Note8 I was able to use system-wide custom fonts via #HEX_ but on my new S20FE it says that the custom font support was removed in Android 10.
I guess it's a ploy by Samsung to make sure you use only fonts in the Galaxy Store which not only are 98% paid only, but comes in basic latin script (although some have Cyrillic script) or Hangul (Korean script) so you are out of luck if you need extended language support...
And no, using custom launchers won't help you outside the launcher itself.

How to apply 3rd party themes?

My main frustration with Miui is not being able to theme it myself, I don't like any of those themes in the store.
I applied for designer in their website but my theme has been waiting to be approved by them for like 3 months now.
I've tried several workarounds, like the force close method (Doesn't works for me I'm on Miui 12.0.6 Btw) and the theme editor from playstore (Works but reverts to stock after a while).
EU roms have a fix for this but there's no EU roms for this device, screw MediaTek.
I have root access via magisk and the unofficial twrp as recovery, is there anything I can do to install a theme permanently?

I just looked it up, only works for Miui 11 and is paid.
Also, even though it is restricted, I prefer Miui theme engine, it is very customizable and system wide. That's the main reason I haven't switched to Lineage Os, I've heard custom app icons only apply to launcher in Lineage Os (No custom icon in recents or settings apps tab)

Did you download the Swift Installer? Because it will support every phone after you install it will cost some money but you can download apk

MIUI themes are in MTZ format, You can either import them in theme store, or apply them through an app named "Theme editor for MIUI".
Keep in mind since there's no proper support for third party themes, they get reseted after some time and the phone returns back to stock theme.
So for now either you enjoy your theme for a few hours and it resets, or try to get it on the MIUI Theme store.
