I believe gtg said he would pass on the info of his launcher to anyone who wanted it.
Can't hurt to ask.

What do you need?
Look at Launcher.config.xml for the 16bit.

Enable landscape mode:
- Open AndroidManifest.xml
- Look for
Code:
android:screenOrientation
and change it from "nosensor" to "user"

Already tried that but doesnt work.

whats the difference between the old TouchWiz mod ??

The font looks a bit too bold for the screen. & the icons are a bit too flashy. They don't carry the subdued beauty of the background. Just my thoughts.

sweet! nice to see someone is continuing this project, but i really think you should consider making a launcher as close to stock as possible with just the added tweaks. Speed, customizable default screen etc.
Keep up the good work!

I have managed to get additional locale to the gtglauncher without decompiling gtglauncher, but then again it is not perfect, and does exhibit a strange behaviour.
Whenever I reboot the phone, it will always force close once. After that, the launcher works perfectly, no force close or whatsoever. Landscape, portrait works just like as before.
pm me if you want to know the method.
Edit: The 1st time I tried is the 16bit disabled launcher, and it force closed. When I try the 16bit version, there is NO force close anymore.

Thanks a ton for all ur hard work. A 5 icon Dock and Landscape Rotation would seal the deal. Let the donation pour in to webstar to support him.

Just a suggestion, it will look much nicer if you remove the backdrops. Currently looks too cramped and cluttered.

Thanks, but how to replace them?

thank you so much

Here's the high quality ones from the SGS II ROM.

thank you so much

Is there an icon for the internet browser? If so can anyone post it? I am using the icons on launcher pro which uses a five icon dock so it looks very wired having touchviz on only 4/5 icons.

Dear Nick502,
* Can you please tell us how to replace these icons with the current existing icons in our ROM?
* There are lot of newbies like me, who don't know how to play with their ROMs, please leave some tutorial.
thank you!

Hi everybody! I am new here and I have some questions...I have Galaxy S3 mini and I would like to change dock icons the same like on picture, or maybe somebody know the theme with these (or similar) icons and text and how I can change it?
Regards...

I'm not sure how these apps are structured and how big is your knowledge about android but basically you just need to
1. Decompile needed apps (e.g. contacts, phone)
2. Replace pictures in /mipmap-mdpi (hdpi/xhdpi) with desired ones
3. Recompile app
4. But back in your ROM and give right permissions (0644/rw-r-r)
5. Reboot and enjoy!
(If its not working, or you need more help — just send me a PM )

Hi! Thank's for Your answer, but I am laic and I don't know exactly what I must do!? I saw SGSII 72x72 theme, but it's in ZIP file, I know just download and install normal app file like some themes, and whether this theme fits on my galaxy s3 mini?

Well, I'm not sure if I understood you right - these are only icons, it's not a theme...

[THEME/UI][TUTORIAL][VIDEO ADDED!] DropUI | A minimal UI (updated: 15th Sept)

*Click image for high res. version.​
It has been a while since I made a real homescreen, I had been using Windows Phone for a while before I got my Galaxy S3. You guys have no idea how suffocating those tiles were (But I still love the MetroUI).
So, I call this setup DropUI cause of the raindrops in it. I have this strange fascination about them, they calm me down. You might notice the edges have black spots, they're there so that the screen looks rounded too. Inside the screen is another layer (or I call it a base). The base has the nav, the dock and the folders. I had to include the dock inside the wallpaper and then use blank icons on my launcher cause 7x10 grid was a pain to work with.
I had seen many setups before I created this, the best and the most unique ones used SweeterHome which is a beta launcher and is clunky. I believe in functionality over looks so I chose one of the best launchers out there, Apex Launcher. (You can use GoLauncher too but Apex has some nice gesture controls.) I made most of it, I had to mash up two icon sets and add in some effects to them. (resources are listed below). Unlike most of the complex setups which make it really hard to change wallpapers, each of my homescreen changes its wallpaper automatically. I had to make couple of wallpaper variations but same wallpapers get boring after a while. The folders are made up of Simi Folder widget and the text is made up of Minimalistic Text.

When you add the widget there are many options, just go to background colour, and where it says "Alpha" set it all they way up to the right to transparent.

Great . Many many thanks .

On my phone (ROM: iomega 9.0) it only says loading. But doesn't show any results. Configuration works fine but as soon as I add it: nothing.
Apart from the 'not-working on my phone' a beautiful app!

Well that shouldnt happen, try uninstalling and installing again, probably it will get fixed. Maybe you could try adding manually your location as well, it might be a problem of you GPS who knows : D

Work nicely! Thanks a lot.

Doesn't work for me either, just crashes when I open it. Shame, as I think it looks great.

Looks really nice.
I like the google bar too. Whats that one?

Looks good. Testing now.

Looks good but could do with an ICS blue (#33b5e5) icon set and the ability to type in a colour code for the text rather than just the touch palette!

Its rather cool - works very well too on my S3. Anywhere I can go to get additional icons?

Official Sony Xperia home screen launcher from Jelly Bean fw (5.1.S.0.0) apk download

From XperiaBlog:
A new Sony Xperia home launcher has leaked. It updates the stock home launcher from version 4.0.3.A.0.9 (at least on our Xperia S) to version 5.1.S.0.0. Changes include a new graphic for the dock at the bottom of the handset, as well as for the app drawer. It also moves the tray options to the left and includes a search bar to the right. We also now get the option to have a maximum of seven home screens, instead of five.
There is also a new way to install widgets, apps, wallpapers and themes. This comes up when you long press an empty space on the home screen. When you click to install a new theme, wallpaper etc you will see the options for these at the bottom of the handset. Another subtle change we noticed is a new screen transition when moving from one home screen to the next.

In addition to that, you can have folder in the app drawer too! This is really useful in my opinion, it is a feature i always wanted.
Here are some screenshots:

}
You can download it from here, fast direct download link provided by me.
It is reported to work with Xperia S. Works on devices without root.

sensible Less framerate in home screen, but much more silkyness overall.
good improvement, but i'll miss the high framerate feeling.
