yes you read right...
is there any way to get touchwiz 3 on the galaxy s2? i just tried to copy the apk into the system folder (somehow it doesnt show up),
so i copied it to data where it showed up, but still doesnt want to work (of course.)
is it even possible?
..dont ask me why, its not for me
What did you copy it from?
I guess it'll be available in the future.

I also just realised that. Won't the GS3 have TouchWiz 5?
If that's right, we have TW4... Is this other device rooted/running a custom rom?

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you, I was simply curious, as everyone is.
Anyway, old TW launchers will need to be ported as they don't work with the ICS framework.

There's a modified apk of the 4.5 launcher floating around xda that works on GB roms.

as i already said, i wasnt able to copy it. i dont know why but the miui file explorer (the one for non miui roms) refused to.
when i wanted to paste it in the system/app folder it did, but the file wasnt showing up.
so screenshot please
@sumpf2 Does the MIUI file manager actually allow you to move system files?
I'd recommend Root Explorer if you haven't tried it already.
Sent from my GT-I9100
i deleted bloatware with it. it does, but you have to mark it in the settings
it worked with root explorer, but still doesnt run, even if i restart it doesnt show up in all installed apps ^^

What is the difference to Froggers TW4.5 exactly?
What are the improvements implemented?
Let us know some more from inside.
Thanks
i find it more stable and its really for people that have trouble with any other tw4 (force closes etc:
I understand. Thanks for the information.
Anyhow, I had never any problems with the TW4.5 1.4.3 of Frogger.
Thanks and keep up the work.

no need to install shareapp.apk?

Is this particular tw4 as ram hungry as the others? As that really puts me off any rom using it as they are always more sluggish than those without it.

Does the stock Power Monitor Widget from Samsung work with your TW4 launcher?
Ok I didn't want to reply so soon but I have found a bug: when you change the amount of dock icons the system crashes forcing one to do a hard reset.

Works on CM7 or not ?
Install the apk attached, go into the app and set location, and you're done.
Set the widget on your home screen.
Probably the best looking Sense clock that's actually easy to find.
agreed, very nice. thank you.
Nice, now I can finally have that beautiful clock!

Use an app like rom manager that can mount system files and copy it into the system/app folder.

I use to own a TP2. It's very nice. It had a special feel to it if you ask me. That's why I always think that our Epics are more than capable of handling Sense, because my old TP2 could, except I think it was 2.1 with touchflow 3d. The thing that stuck out the most to me was how badass my weather looked, and that gorgeous flipclock animation. They were so fluid and realistic. I so wish there was a port. =(

That is deodexed. You need to use root explorer to put it in system/app then set permissions. There's 9 check boxes when you choose fix permissions. The 3 on the left and the top middle one need to be checked. Then reboot
