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..

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.

another great rom by siulmagic, gonna try it out.
Is the dock normally that... fat?
are the icons that are placed on the dock supposed to be that low?
read the decription guys, it clearly states the launcher mis aligned not by much, there fixed versions but they domt seem to work.for me , theres a link to them on the op, =
edit. yo can replace the launcher if it bothers you.
I cannot for the life of me find in the OP where it states that the dock is misaligned, it only says for the lockscreen.

The launcher for this rom is sweet. I did get some fc's when I removed the picture and video widget from the homescreen. I simply cleared the launcher data and its all fine. Besides that everything works perfectly.

Is this not TW 4 -enhanced?
Looks a lot better than the original but I'm getting FCs all over the place making it pretty much unusable at the moment. Back to ADW for me.
When installing this launcher I lose my dock icons except from the applications shortcut.
How can I re-add phone/messaging etc?

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.

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.
