Need hello with touchwiz. Help please!!! - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

Hi forum. Lately i have just installed apex launcher on my s3 and I'm loving the launcher. However i wanted to switch back to the stock touchwiz and found that it kept crashing on me. I've tried going to setting ms and clear the data for touchwiz. But to no avail... can anyone help me out? Are there any apk. File for me to reinstall? Much appreciated.

Is it giving a force close error, or just does it just re-launch touchwiz?

It doesn't even work. Each time i select touchwiz it will just freeze and shut. It won't launch. Any idea what went wrong

He said he new to android and not rooted.

Phone Settings > Application Manager > All ....
1. Go to Apex Launcher and clear any "default"
2. TouchWiz Home > clear data / cache (this will reset/wipe settings of your hide screens etc and you'll need to set them up again)

If your not rooted and my previous suggestion didn't work,....
Back up data from internal sdcard to PC and Factory Reset.

Non-rooted: just copy any important folders etc from the internal sdcard to PC. You'll need to setup again, so make sure contacts are also backed up etc. a You may also lose allot of app data, and most can't be backed up without root. Ensure you have copy of your APN and wifi settings handy.
Rooted users: Titanium Backup app (backup app and system data) and make a nandroid backup with CWM recovery. And also copy to PC. Before restore any system app or data (red colour) with titanium, just asking for bugs.

I'm using the port with the Multi-View, and Nova launcher FWIW.
Tried a full wipe, dalvik wipe, fix permissions, all the usual tricks?

I know it's obvious, but make sure the app is set up to auto retrieve messages within settings.

I just started a thread about this a bit before you did. Remove this one and merge it with mine and maybe we can get some answers.

Go to settings/storage is it really full? If it's a playstore error go to settings/accounts and delete your Google one then readd it.

Yes. I've had that error and deleting my Google account and readding it fixed it.
I've run into the same thing. It seems like on the S3 you're not able to eat into that remaining 500MB or so of storage. Likely the reason for this is because it wants to make sure that existing apps have enough room available for app data.

Try clearing its cache, if still nothing, clear data (back up your messages if you need to, i dont know if it deletes those as well) and reboot

Well the only other thing I can think of is that some other app is interfering with it. Try uninstalling/wiping cache for any other apps you installed around the time when this problem popped up

If it doesnt set the prebuilt theme see if you can go into settings and then the customization(can't remember exact name havent used gosms in quite a while) and see if it'll let you set your colors and stuff in there. There could be a bug with themes in the current version. I used go apps for a long time on my older devices until they started pushing updates almost daily due to all the bugs

Assuming you are using the built-in TouchWiz launcher, backup system data of TouchWiz.

unknown error could not install (-24)

Ok so i was running the note 2/3 rom I forget what it's called and my phone was randomly rebooting itself. So i wiped everything did a factory reset and went to install my old apps and i kept getting this stupid error when stuff from the market went to install. The same exact apps that were running on the same exact rom. So then i got fed up and wiped everything and installed the sks mk4 rom and I still have the same issue. What is going on with this?

Did you wipe the internal sdcard?

I found a little trick on the interwebs. Open up TB. Once it finishes loading, hit the menu key. Select batch operations. Scroll down and select the orphan data choice. Fixed me up a few times.

Well try the titanium backup method mentioned hopefully that will help. When changing roms it is alwats best to wipe your internal sdcard to avoid these kind of issues.

I had this last week. Couldn't get gmail to install, then a different app. Since I was using philz, there wasn't a fix permissions. If you're not using that recovery, try fixing permissions. If you are, use the app rom toolbox lite to fix it.
Ok so the titanium backup method worked as far as I can tell. Everything has installed since I did that. Now my problem is for some reason xda app keeps disappearing. The icon stays on my home screen but disappears from my app drawer. When I click on the shortcut on my home screen it tells me app isn't installed. Then I have to go to play store re install it and click the same shortcut and it opens
