Has anyone made, or know of a galaxy-s like ROM for our Dinc's? Its kind of like iPhone with the 4 main apps at the bottom of home screen. The app draw is dope to. apps scrolling left and right, IMO, far better than the up and down way.

If ur looking for a side scrolling app drawer try adw launcher. There's a setting allowing u to have side scrolling. As for a rom, I couldn't tell u, I'm sure someone could port it. Damnit where's jdk when we need him lol

So I am using Launcher Pro Plus and really like having a scrollable dock.....So my question is, how impossible is it to scroll my home screen by row or column instead of by page. Sort of like a rubix cube.........does that make sense or not LOL
That does sound like a nice idea. Basically you want each row to scroll as the dock does. Getting both vertical and horizontal scrolling would make it much tougher. I think to build one where just the rows scroll would be easiest. You could just build an app/widget that scrolls and place it on your homescreen. Bc of the 'page' style of android, im betting it would have to circumvent that by just working off of one home page.

Can you imagine trying to remember where the app you are looking for is????????
With the Rubix Scrolling it would never be in the same place

If I'm not mistaken, the SweeterHome beta does this with springboards or something like that. I could be wrong but you can try their site and see (sorry I can't remember the url!). Hope I was able to help a bit lol.
I did this once (when on android 1.5) with either Openhome, ahome, Dxtop, or one of the other early launchers. I don't believe it was a feature.. more of an accident but ya, I feel like it is a great idea to have this built in to a launcher.
A widget like this: ScrollCut would kind of make it possible, but for some reason, only lets you scroll vertically (?).
Imagine having a a square number like 4 or 9 homescreens arranged in a square. Moving horizontaly and verticaly, you could move around the homescreens. So for example, you move right or left to any screen, and then you can move up and down as well to any other screen, and so on and so forth. The fun ensues lol

What's the possibilty of someone making a 3D app drawer that looks like a DNA strand? If the columns worked independently of each other in that scenario that would be amazing.

Hi All!
I really love the new TouchWiz but one thing that is annoying is the scrolling on app drawer. it to much iphone and not so comfortable.
so I wonder, is there a way to change the app drawer so it will be scrolling down and has 3D like the stock android/adw?
Thank You!
Switching to an alternative launcher like ADW Launcher EX is probably the easiest solution.
Try the "Nexus"-preset & "Vertical new" for the app drawer!
I think you didn't understood me properly(or maybe I didn't explain myself clear):
I really like what samsung did with the TouchWiz 4. So I want to keep it.
I want just to change the AppDrawer to be vertical scrolling(prefer with 3d).
Is theres a way to do that?
Im used to app drawers with the apps sorted in alfabetic order.
Is there an easy way of doing this in TW4?

In the app drawer, hit menu and then 'List view'. A reboot will default to the original.
No 3d I'm afraid.

yes it does.. prior versions didnt work but latest works.
I keep seeing people mention the app drawer in ICS. What is this?
Is it just where the apps are stored when you hit the central button at the bottom of the home screen?
yep that's right. coming from iphone I assume?

Come from Sense lol..
I've seen on some launchers, that if you swipe up from the bottom, theres a little "drawer" which contains a few favourited apps. Then you have your main application bit.
Hence why I thought the application drawer might be something different. Never had a pure Android rom before

Android 2.0 and older had an actual drawer that slid out, upward from the bottom of the screen. Name just stuck around.

Ah, that'll be what i'm thinking of!
I actually prefer the old draw-out drawer. Still hoping a custom launcher will implement it but no one appears to share my enthusiasm for it.

I believe the last phone with pure Android and an actual "app drawer" was the original Verizon Droid. Take a look at this video at 1:15 you see why many still refer to the "all apps" tray as the apps drawer.

Edit: to slow searching for a video of the droid...
Does anyone know what is the name of the process of App Drawer? I want to create widget with Minimalistic and don't know which activity to assign to it.

hi all, i just flashed my phone to ARHD 15.0 and i noticed that when i slide left/right in the home screen, the wallpaper no longer slide, is there a setting for this feature to be enabled? i cant seem to find it
thanks!
Wallpaper scrolling in the latest jellybean update has been disabled. The same must have been done with your rom.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
ohh, i see.. that kinda sucks anyways, may i ask why they disabled the feature? or can you point me to any links about this getting removed? thanks for the reply!
I think its something to do with a Apple patent. Apple are pure patent trolls and i hate them for that.

I guess it was basically because to allow the complete rotation of home screen.
also you can try different launchers.. wallpaper scrolling would work fine. It has been disabled with just rosie
Try apex or nova launchers.
I hate the way they got rid of it. It was something really cool in android, and I don't want to use a different luancher because senses looks nice also the extra ram usage, and its to much hasle to use Rom cleaner.
I'm pretty sure our awesome Devs will be able to add this feature to custom JB Roms.
6 screens
Anybody notice we only have 6 instead of 7 screens? There's a big gap where the seventh screen was supposed to be.

Why thank you. I wouldn't know what I'd do without you.
is there a way to mod or enable wallpaper scrolling i mean i like it to and i kinda like rosie especialy the semi transparent notifications bar
NWM.
any new developments on this yet?
Viper X has scrolling wallpaper
Is there a mod available to be able to move the TW App Drawer rather than keeping it on the right side? Id like to be able to move it like other launchers. If not put it in a mode to move it when ever, Id like to at least have it in the middle to access with my left hand.
Like what you said, just why don't you go with a different launcher then?

Like what exact features? All I use it for is to type, draw, scroll.

OP, I'm with you.. I like TW and the only thing I would want to change is to move the apps button to the middle of the launcher. But it doesn't look like we have that option unfortunately. I've tried other launchers, Nova was pretty good, but you inevitably lose some cool TW stuff like certain widgets(4x4 calendar was a big one for me). I wasn't willing to live with that, so I stayed stock.

I like the look an feel of TW. I haven't had a phone that used it before until now, so its a new launcher option for me. I like the TW SPen detach screen and other OEM functions of it that you loose with an aftermarket launcher. That and when I have replaced my launcher in the past I usually delete the other, I dont like keeping apps on my phone that are not going to be used and take up space. The Note 2 is so much more complicated than my OG Evo, its going to be a while before Im ready to just start pulling stuff out and gutting it.

Nova is good but I like Holo launcher and Holo locker a lot. I used those on most of my ROMs that I would run. Just like you said though, Ive tried a few mostly Smart Launcher (runs great on my TV Stick), but keep going back to TW.
