[Q] How to get TouchWiz widget/transitions on AOKP ROM w/ Nova Launcher? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey all.
For some reason I find some TouchWiz elements to be be quite aesthetically pleasing. For example the Calendar and Weather widgets. I managed to get the icons but not all of them. I want to use Nova or Apex whichever is better so that in future ROMS i can Always have a backup of my setup. Also if there is something better than the TouchWiz theme where can I find more themes?
Thanks

Help is this possible?

Harmonize Icons-Look on sense (like in MIUI ROM)

Is it possible to make all icons rounded like it's done in MIUI ROM? Are there any mods, patches, kernels, themes whatsoever for this? I would like to have it for a sense HD ROM.

Thank you guys for pointing me to the launchers. I found a free Launcher that includes this feature and has some other REALLY nice features too: GO Launcher EX!
Only drawback is, it doesn't support sense widgets...

How to add or remove homescreen pages Nexus

Dear all,
I want to learn that how can I add or remove additional homescreen pages from Galaxy Nexus. There is no information about this even google. Before there was an icon for displaying all homescreen pages and you could add or remove new homepages.
Thanks,
What launcher are you using?
If the answer is stock you cannot add or remove pages.
you cant add or remove homescreens on the stock launcher
if you want to do that, you need to install a third-party launcher from the market
I have tried Nova launcher which works pretty well and is based off of the stock ICS launcher
I am using original firmware, not custom rom and it is pure ICS. What do you advice to me for modifying homescreen pages,
Regards,
Since you're bone stock you really only have the option of using another launcher i.e. nova, apex (they use the resources from and function just like the stock launcher with added options) or adw, go, lp+ and many others. If you end up on a deodexed rom then you have the option of editing the "stock" launcher yourself By reading this.
good day.
Thank you very much for your replies and advices, I installed Nova launcher and i can organize them now.
Thanks again.
How is Nova? I'm currently on adw ex and was eyeing the "tsf shell" does Nova live up to the test?

TouchWiz Calendar

Is there a way to get the TouchWiz Calendar widget in a seperate apk? I have CM10 installed and like the TW calendar better than the CM one.
Think you are out of luck. The TouchWiz Stock apps made by Samsung tend to only work on TouchWiz based ROMs.
Dang, ok. I'll just have to find a similar calendar widget then.
I simply changed launchers to Nova and I really wanted that Touchwiz widget. I have yet to find one that comes close. They did a really great job with it
I've tried Nova, GO, & Apex and didn't really care for them. Maybe I just didn't give them enough time. I'm really liking CM10 but missing some of the features of TW, like the calendar widget.
Has anyone found a way to get the stock calendar and email app onto CM10? I think the stock TW versions are much better than the ones included in CM10.

Simple Calendar is a pretty great widget if you haven't already checked it out. Very customization and can even include tasks from other apps.

I like the CM10 email app. I think it works a lot quicker than the stock one... But I gotta say the stock calendar is more preferable for me.

nova launcher help

hi every one when i install nova launcher i loose my original sense widgets how can i get them back?
You can't get them with a 3rd party launcher.
If you want sense widgets... Use the sense rosie launcher.
As for some specific widgets like clocks... I believe there is a port for other launchers.
Generally, you'll have to use sense launcher to use sense widgets.

Just download and install each launcher, you can have all 3 installed at the same time. Just make sure you don't select "Always" when you click the home button before you have made a decision of which homescreen you want to use.
I like Apex, it works awesome has ICS look like screen, has transitions so you can cube in and out between homescreens .. adds some pizazz and makes iphone users jealous
set them all up, play between them, decide which one you like the best and stick with it.
I personally use Apex (free version still) and have removed Trebuchet completely. In Apex holding down on the icons you can rename them move them, easy to create/add widgets and resize.
I've used Nova before but just like Apex better overall.
How about samsung stock applications and features? Like muting after flipping phone etc? I won't lie, the only thing I'm missing is the possibility of resizing widgets and customization of status bar. If only it was available on stock firmware
