So I have been running free gs3 for a few weeks now....today, not sure what I did, but I noticed the app icon on TW launcher moved one space to the left (4th spot from left) and I my folder group was in the 5th spot. I started messing with moving icons around and got the app icon to move to the middle, where I loved it being. Thinking this was awesome I did a TB backup and TWRP backup. After reboot, the stupid appnicon is back in the 5th spot and I cannot replicate what happened. Ideas?

Sounds like cache. Clear cache in tw. Reboot. You can try clear data but make sure you have a bakup just in case.

No luck...tried cachemate app to clear cache from apps and then try to move the icon, nada....tried to clear cache/dalvik from recovery and reboot then try the move, nada. Tried to clear app data and then restore the TW backup I made on TB today we the icon moved, nada. Thanks for the suggestion though. I guess it was a glitch but I really want to replicate it.

Download a 3rd party launcher like nova or apex. You can moved them around all you want. Plus a lot of other neat things.
I changed all my icons

What weather widget are you using?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I know I can use a 3rd party like Nova, but just isn't the same in terms if animations or smoothness.
That weather icon is from One More Clock found in the market.

Did anyone else know it was possible. There isn't much documentation on Touchwiz 2.5 for our Epics. So I'm finding things new to me I suppose.
It also goes into Expose in the app drawer.

I dont understand
Can u clarify more
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I know that Launcher Pro has a nice Expose interface feature... but with touchwiz being so proprietary.. i highly doubt that youre going to be able to do much with it.
I meant this, I had a week ago pinched my fingers on the homescreen in Touchwiz and it expanded all of the homescreen without having to hit the edit button. But also within the app drawer it does the same thing and shows all the pages.
Homescreen:

Ahhhh I see, I wish we all knew what the actual features of the touchwiz we're on are. Because looking at old videos of Touchwiz 3 ours is nothing like it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
That would be really useful.
Edit_ the pinch works with the zeam launcher for the home screen but not app drawer

The way Touchwiz 3 was apparently supposed to look and work. We have some of the features in that video haha. If we had that I would be happy with Touchwiz eternally.

That touchwiz is pretty cool looking. I might actually use it if it looked like that.

Does anyone know if there are modified touchwiz's that can be flashed or downloaded???

You will have to unzip the file and extract the icons and dock onto your SD card.

I had that problem one time too. I had to uninstall and reinstall launcher pro. Also I've noticed sometimes LP doesn't play well with quickpic. If you're using a 3rd party app to select the icon use the gallery app that came with your rom.

ICS style task switching
I use an app for this, which name is "Perfect task switcher".
It shows a preview of running apps (only stock based roms, not in CM7)
You can set it to show only running tasks.
I tried a lot of task manager, switcher apps. And I found that the best .I think you like it.
Here is the market link:

I love the TW launcher speed but I hate the folders and 4 icons down kills me with the big screen, I have used apex most of the time but I find it laggy compared to TW, any recommendations for a good launcher or does anyone have a TW launcher apk to share (mod of course)
Btw I'm trying nova it looks more optimized then apex for some reason, I'm using wicked rom

Just linked this in another thread, TweakWiz: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30471519.
Otherwise try Nova or Holo. Both are super fast.

I use Zeam right now. Its super fast and I managed to tweak it almost exactly how i wanted. I'm migrating to LauncherPro because it has that ONE feature Zeam doesn't (hide apps in drawer).

I'm looking for one that has/allows custom docks, much like ADWex does, but still ICS variant like Apex, Nova, Hola. Oh and I don't like GO at all.
I am using holo launcher. Also gingerbread launcher is buttery smooth and than some! Tried it out last month mostly because of TW ugly green theme (why I ask why?)

Does it use a lot of battery? I notice one of the permissions is "prevent phone from sleeping"
Any lag?
Overall experience with it?
Looking forward to buying it, but wanted a little feed back before I purchase it
I'm completely stock on jb btw.
Thanks in advance

I use it and love it. No lag at all and yes the phone sleeps fine.

Yea, widget locker is good. Haven't had any issues. I use system panel to monitor every new app I install and it barely even uses up battery life.
Thanks for the replies, one last thing, do I need to disable my original screen lock?

I used to get that a lot, so I just disabled my original lock screen. But sometimes it would still happen, the phone would just wake up straight to the launcher. Remember that widget locker is actually a launcher itself, so what I did was clear the defaults on TW launcher, Nova Launcher (one I am using) and Widget Locker, and then set the default again for Nova after hitting home, then went in and set up widget locker again to default. That seems to have fixed it.
