[MOD] Remove iPhone-style tiles from TouchWiz App Drawer

I hated the 'iPhone' look of the app drawer, which draws squares around the icons to make them look like iphone tiles. So I followed the instructions here and now it looks way better:
[I can't post external links] Search google for 'App hintergrund handy-faq.de' - it should be the first result.
It's a German site, so I used Google Translate to make sense of it.
EDIT: Yay, I'm now allowed to post links and upload and whatnot so here is the tutorial:

You will need a rooted phone, and basically you replace the tile backgrounds with transparent ones in the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk through ADB. Disclaimer: Please note you do this at your own risk and I am not responsible for any damage you may cause to your phone!
1) Download the Transparent_Tiles.zip attachment and unzip to a folder on your computer.
2)In Windows, make sure you have ADB SDK installed and phone connected via USB with 'USB Debugging' enabled. Go to Start>Run type 'cmd' and press enter, then in the black cmd window type:
cd c:\
adb pull /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
This will copy TouchWiz30Launcher.apk from your phone to your c:\ drive on your computer.
3) Before we meddle with the newly pulled file, make a copy of it and save somewhere else. Call it something like TouchWiz30Launcher.apk_original. This is your stock file, keep it in case you need to go back to the holy iPhone look.
4) Using a program like WinRar or 7zip, OPEN the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk on your C:\ drive by double-clicking (do not extract anything). WinRAR should now give an explorer-type view of the files inside the .apk. Navigate to the following folder in the .apk using WinRAR:
/res/drawable-hdpi/
You will see a list of image files that TouchWiz uses to create the iPhone tiles. We are basically going to overwrite the tiles with transparent ones directly in WinRAR.
5) Now highlight and select all the image files in the Transparent_Tiles.zip folder you extracted earlier and drag them into the WinRAR window. Confirm any overwrite prompts and then close WinRAR. We have now modified the apk (replaced the original tile background images) without extracting the apk or re-saving it. (It is important not to extract or re-pack the apk otherwise your phone will not accept the modified apk and you will need to re-sign it).
6) Now we are going to copy this apk to our phone's internal sdcard, then replace the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk currently on our phone system with the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk we just modified on our computer:
In your cmd line window, type (pressing Enter after each line):
adb push TouchWiz30Launcher.apk /sdcard/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
adb shell
su
cat /sdcard/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk > /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
reboot
8) Your phone will reboot. Free from it's copycat mentality with a new-found identity
9) The TouchWiz30Launcher.apk you copied to your internal SD card can now be deleted if you wish, since you've already copied this to the phones system now.
EDIT: I've upgraded to JP6 now (Froyo) and tried this method, and it worked too!

Very interested in this, but have no idea how to do this, please elaborate

You could also just change to launcherpro or ADW, both of which will emulate the look and feel of touchwiz but not add the tiles. Probably easiest way.

Yeah, that is true. The above is useful for folks who prefer not to run 3rd party launchers and keep the stock TouchWiz for whatever reason, but can't tolerate Samsung's inferiority-complex in aping the iPhone.
I did try launcherpro and AWD but they both gave me headaches:
- interfered with USB connections to my PC,
- cause problems with wi-fi reconnecting / detecting router
- Interfered with Live Wallpapers, (especially when rotating screen)
- drain my battery (touchwiz still running underneath),
- cause some widgets that work wonderfully in TouchWiz to go beserk (BBC News, DigiClock)
- and also clashed with NoLED notifications - one of my all time greatest apps.
In the end, I decided it wasn't worth it just for eye-candy and uninstalled both. It was a shame, because launcherpro was very snappy otherwise and had great add-on widgets...
But in the end I settled for TouchWiz, modified to my liking:

Sorry mate, could you rephrase that, don't get what you mean...?

He simply replaced the colored tiles with transparent tiles.
Download the zip and put the containing .png files into drawable/hdpi of the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk.
I think if you have a deodexed rom you will have to resign it then..

Yes, but then I miss out on samsung widgets, which, whilst alot of people here do not like, I do use, so I would prefer to keep it stock.

where did you get your icons for the contacts, dialer...?

I googled for launcher pro style icons and found some on http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/icons . Then used the same principles as above to replace the original icons inside the phone, browser apk with the custom ones

I'm not sure if that is possible because there doesn't seem to be a background image file used in the touchwiz launcher to create the black background. I think the colour is set in the XML file code, which is a realm beyond my knowledge...! Unless someone else knows what to modify?

Cheers, I finally got around to doing this today.
Works beautifully
The homescreen_menu_marketbg_0 tile was still there, so I had to change that to black as well, but other than that, worked perfectly

[Q] CM7 Status Bar Transparency

Status bar, not notification pull down. I've already gotten the notification working, as it was just a standard png edit.
Anyway, is there anyone that can give an explanation on how I can get my status bar to be transparent? I've already gotten the proper image from system/app/SystemUI.apk. I edited it and saved it properly for transparency. Where I'm getting stuck is the whole draw 9 thing, since the image is a ".9.png" file. I've already opened the png in the draw 9 patch tool in the SDK, but I'm just totally stuck at this point.
I sort of understand the deal with drawing black lines on the right and the bottom for the content areas, then the two dots on the top and left for the stretchable areas. But after I save the file, I'm still seeing the drawn black lines in the image. Am I not doing something right? After I get that sorted, how do I go about resigning the apk to push it to my device?

You'll need to run Eclipse, this tutorial helped me with draw nines. Once you put them thru Eclipse, the lines will disappear. Then you can extract them from the unsigned apk like the video states, use 7zip to put the images back into your framework-res.apk or whatever without having to resign anything.

I'm a rom-whore, and I'm damn proud of it

Edit: Nevermind, I'm editing the right file. I just did a test and made it completely red and it worked. But, for some reason transparency is not working at all, it just keeps appearing solid black.

I believe it's in services.jar if I'm not mistaken. Or so that's what I had heard. I haven't messed with it myself.

Can you make it semi-transparent?

Sent you a PM.

The actual image is in SystemUI.apk. But it won't render transparent without an xml our services.jar hack. It's a pain in the ass. Also if you actually make it transparent you are going to have problems with text and image stacking when you pull down down notifications. I just replace the image in SystemUI.apk with a 480x38 top part of my wallpaper.

Unfortunately it only works on the lockscreen, screen transitions, and with live wallpapers. I don't use live wallpapers so it just remains a black bar for me.

In ADW Launcher settings to go System Preferences, and uncheck Wallpaper Hack, and the transparency will be enabled with regular wallpaper.
With Launcher Pro, it only works with LWP.

Indeed that does work. Now, if I could only get that transparency to work with the original CM7 theme. I'm not a fan of all the extra theming stuff that particular patch adds. Thank you though.

ICS Digital Desk Clock as a Widget

In the stock ICS alarm settings from the stock analogue clock widget you can access a digital "desk clock" mode. If you long touch this desk clock, the screen goes black and you get a very sleek blue version.
members.iinet.net.au/~trinityjayone/ICSclock1.png
I have scoured the web and downloaded countless digital clock apps looking for something that achieves this blue digital clock in widget form. One widget came close ( market.android.com/details?id=com.eightsoft.ICSDigitalClock ), but it has a background that can't be removed and the text doesn't even fit into it properly.
Anyone know of a widget that fits the bill? Am I better off just working out how to make it myself?

Try HD Widgets. it has exactly what you want, with many digital clocks, weather and background options.

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't 100% clear. I'm after a clock that looks identical to the screenshot I posted. Same font, same colour (or the options to set it up as such).

it may not be exactly the same, but i think it's the closest one available at the moment.
If you find wt you looking for please share it with us here as i also like that blue lock clock.

1. Create new folder on sd card called 'fonts.' Make sure there are no subfolders within it - just the actual true type font files.
2. Pick folder 'font,' not specific sub font, in the global settings for font selection.
3. Under each text type on each widget - normal, accented, nonaccented - you must select the font, the list should populate when you do as above.

Argh so easy! Don't know how on Earth I missed the "choose fonts" folder before. Thank you kind sir!

They are numbered by size 48,72,96. However they are also all the same file name and contained in individual zips. So be careful not to overwrite when unpacking.

Which one?
I have some of them pre packaged in apk's already.
As far as flashable zips go, I am on the fence. I believe you should learn to do a few core things, in case something gets messed up and you don't have a zip to flash and fix. I probably will build a zip that contains all the updated Gapps with different themed icons when I am finished with the notification icons.

Great work my friend

Ya that's normal if you have your original updated Pandora still in./system/app. You need to remove the widget from your home screen first , delete your original Pandora apk from /system/app, then push my modded Pandora apk.

I have a full size accuweather widget I can post if anyone would rather that one. I believe its the most updated version that will update itself like every 15 min too. If anyone wants me to post the full size (4x2) let me know. Here is a screen shot...

Full screen
First of thanks for posting the widgets.. it's great work.
I've updated my Samsung Galaxy SII (SPH-D710) to run AOKP build 37. very hpappy witht the rom but i am missing my full screen weather.
So, i have used root explorer to copy DigitalClock, signedTP accuweather and SamsungWidgetweather to /system/app
The digital Clock works and the accuweather works. Unfortunatley the one i really want to work is the full screen weather widget (SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk) but for some reason when i go to the widgets set up i can not find it in there.
Now, i have checked the persmissions are set correctly (0644) and also the owner is set correctly.
I have rebooted plenty of times, and yet cannot find it even though it is on the /system/app folder.
Am i missing something ? is there anything else i need to set ?
and just to be on the safe side, Is this the widget from touchwiz that makes the full screen display sunny or rainy etc according to weather conditions ?
Thanks in advance for your help on this matter..

Unfortunately aokp and tw aren't always Compatible. . Sorry but not much i can do about that. Some advice is that you can search some of the aosp roms and pull a widget from there.
There is a tutorial on how to make transparent widgets in the Android themes and mods section off of the xda home page! Good easy way to start learning how to theme!

Can it run on CM9?
