the one you are linking is a repost of the original thread on the main application forums.
i'd link this to be honest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
that's the main thread and been updated a few times with the improvements compared to the first apk that is released.

Is it just me, or is this thread pointless?

Nice to see you encouraging a young developer.
If you care to read properly, you will see that dev is well aware that this should be in a different section.
Go take your criticism elsewhere.
what, why>?
i am getting dizzy everytime i see same pack of features enumerated in defferent order (and most of them are kernel features btw) and released under some ROM name
and the limit of posts that you can start a thread in this other section was not set just because of to piss of people i guess, same with posting lings

Please move this to android development. seems that the rom is released

Hi Martux.
Great work. The multi dpi was an unexpected surprise. . Great theme, very happy with the speed. Only snag that I've found is a soft reboot when using miui lock to access SMS.
Edit, I had forgotten to assign SMS app to lock - NO SNAGS SO FAR!!
Much appreciated.

[Theme] Convert your wildfire into an SIII :P

Hey,
NOTE: FOR ICS USERS ONLY
I have seen many many threads abt wanting touchwiz launcher on our little phone, so after a bit of trial and error, i have finally found out a way to do it.
Step 1: Download the .apk file in the attachment, copy it into system/app and give it permissions (rw-r-r).
Step 2: reboot your phone and enjoy!
FOR CM9 users:
Go to this link and download the theme for complete effect!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.driffex.theme.touchwizz5&hl=en
Enjoy

I dont take any but i forgot the actual author of this post, i am sorry..
attaching screenshots
I only see Sense, no touchwiz in those screenshots.

I think the launcher is based on holo launcher .
Thanks for your contribution .

I dont know what launcher it is, but it mimics touchwiz perfectly (which is all i want!)
Touchwiz isn't about scrolling sideways.
The colors are different, the animations don't have the same timings, etc.
When I look at the screenshots you gave us, I see Holo Launcher and a Sense 4 clock widget.
-----------
"You can overclock as much as you want, your phone will always seem too slow."
to have all the animations and all, we need to have an s3, which is out of question
Okay, never mind.
Also, app can be installed like a normal apk.

Thank you. Did you try it to install like a normal app? I did and it used to force close.
I installed and it worked.
Got two FCs at first, but then it went fine. Pushing doesn't give me the FCs, so it's a better solution.

[App] Gmail 4.2 apk

Credits go to Android Police for getting this.
To install, I uninstalled the old app with titanium backup.. Then reboot and install the apk (Gmail_v4.2.apk)
There you go - pinch to zoom in Gmail!
Works perfectly for me on XXDLIB
UPDATE: Tylwith added a CWN flashable zip - attached (gmail4.2.zip)
UPDATE 2: travp624 made an inverted colours apk - attached (Gmail4.2-signed-aligned.apk)
Android Police have an article about the new features here http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...amped-attachments-better-navigation-and-more/
On the source article on Android police they said they are not yet allowed to post the apk. I hope to that someone will post it here.
You would think XDA would have posted the APK already. This is my first time seeing a news site have APK's before XDA. It's usually news sites posting what XDA has discovered.

Agreed, I'm surprised it's not here.
<Bump> Would also like to see this in the Android General topic. The APK should work on any ROOTED 4.04 and above system Possibly even 4.0.0

Keep mashing. They are milking the hell of out their previous stories. They don't care about users, they just want hits.

Right on. It would have been easier to post a link for the download than type a sentence saying you have permission to post the apk.
That's how you can clearly see what kind off people they are.

Just a heads up, in my case (running CM9) I had to delete all gmail apks, reboot, then change permissions and copy the new apk to system/app for it to install. YMMV

sharing the apk here, AndroidPolice has gotten enough traffic out of this one
Here is how I installed this on wanam 3.7 (deodexed rom) You may have to find and delete .odex files on stock roms
(you may want to do a full backup in cwm first)
plug phone into usb cable from pc
Drag file from pc desktop to phone.
Run root explorer on phone (or a file manager with root access)
go to system/app
mount r/w
long press gmail2.apk
rename as gmail2.bak
mount r/o
now still in root explorer go to sdcard
press androidpolice_gmail2.apk and choose install from the package installer.
(Installs in data/app)
reboot phone
Enjoy pinch to zoom
If you want it in system/app find another guide

We took an hour or two to eat, type up instructions, make sure they work, and upload the mirrors. XDA, so quick to *****, judge, and feel entitled to everything. You don't know the full story. In fact, you don't know any of the story - all your theories are completely baseless.

Lulz that's a douchey thing to say considering at the very least 30% of your content originates from people on this board that hardly profit from their love of android. I never ever see the word exclusive coming out of here. You turned your "leak" into a three article circle jerk.

If you have root explorer you can find it in the APK/ODEX versions, i found it by just selecting " what app you want to use for clock" in my Beautiful Widgets... but its odiously unusable. If i try to launch it, it just tells me that its unable to start the app. Meaning.. that its just disabled.. not just removed.. i think.
ah, I see.
not rooted. that explains it
I'm not rooted

You don't have to be rooted I'm not, you can also see it in the application manager, swipe all the way till All apps then scroll to the S's and there it is!

Settings icon missing in app drawer

Hi excuse me, I have a problem with settings icon that was missed in app drawer, I modded settings.apk and move into SD card, then I opened root explorer. I've tried to copy to system > app and set permission rw-r-r- and then reboot. After reboot, settings icon has been gone. :crying: What should I do ?

What do you think someone who has released themes and ROMs should do.
Did you make a backup?
If not, find the original apk in the main rom file on your computer.
Or re-install ROM.

It's quite obvious to be honest, see, when things like that happen to me, I retrace my steps, double check everything I may have modded, amend where necessary and try again, repeating the process should my amendments fail again, until the apk works, this guy however trys something once then starts threads like this at the first failure, and as you can see from their last thread and thread history doesn't take anything you say on board, so it's highly frustrating to see yet another, pointless thread from this guy.
Pointless threads are one thing, yes.
Pointless answers are another.
If you dont want to help, dont post - easy.
The thread has already been made.
Im fairly sure a lot of other users agree with me.
