Hey guys, so I changed my LCD density, but touchwiz doesn't traditionally play nice with it, does anyone know if there's a way to alter touchwiz to change as well? If you can see in the picture there's a huge gap between my apps and dock. I cannot move apps below the line they're currently on.

Why not extract the apk from that ROM? I personally don't see anything wrong with that screenshot

Was considering looking into doing that when I have a chance. And you don't see a problem with my screen shot in first post? There's a huge gap of unusable space. Just irritating if I can change it might as well I haven't been using twiz but was considering going back...

Oh yeah.just looked at it closer didn't zoom in before.I noticed it shows the home screen dots right below that widget.I would think your only option is to try that other apk. I could try missing the layouts of the stock one but I'm pretty sure that's exactly what that other one has.

Blackjellys rom has those dots under the dock instead of the top, it looks really goodb with low dpi. I wanna find out how thats done.

I found a solution to the question at hand.. Download the xposed module "App settings" and change the touchwiz home dpi back to stock and you're good to go!

Well I didn't see one. Every community that I've been on always has a social scene where people compare there customizations. I figured this would be a good place to start, so post them screenshots up son!

Hey, I tought it might help to tell people how to take a screenshot. Press home and lock keys at the same time.
Sorry, it just took me actually going to the samsung site to figure it out! And I thought I would spare someone the trouble.

Yes but certain Roms do not have the screen shot app installed as they consider it bloatware so if it does not work (when pressed you hear a camera shutter sound) if no sound it does not work on your Rom. No worries you can then install the APK to get it back up and running. I think Some people posted it.

The launcher is just a good old GoLauncher.
Someone should post some pic of the ice update!
Anyone came up with an app for this?
I am not a fan of launchers running on top of any ROM and I read a lot about issues with apps and playstore after using LCD Density.
I currently switched from iPhone to Galaxy S3 and while the phone is great, icons are just not adequate to the screen.
There is an app called Bigify for iOS, is there anything at least similar for Android devices?
The main 3 options I am looking for:
1. change icon size
2. change angle of the icons by xy degrees (it looks fantastic!)
3. remove icon text
Here is a SS:
This actually would be very nice as it bothers me when the apps name is cut off because it's too long.. So being able to remove the text would be great!

Apex Launcher allows you to remove the app text or modify the title/icon. You cannot rotate it though.
Op running a different launcher has no actual problems
Say your using nova as default the phone won't have stock tw launched running in the background unless you open again

I am sorry but how are these answers to my question? As far as I am reading it correct I need to have a launcher and I cannot get a any angle and no name icons at the same time
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
It's what you asked for. They honestly helped you as much to their abilities.
That being said if you want angled apps look into making it yourself. I know that is not much of a answer you're looking but as of right now as far as I have seen there are no apps or mods to rotate apps.

There's one launcher that'll let you have the customization you want. It's rather expensive though.

Root your phone install a recovery and install paranoid android, google it, i think youll like it.
I got TFS Launcher and it runs great. I do have one question though.... Isn't there always a Launcher running over a rom? Otherwise you wouldn't be able to run any apps.

what do you mean? Why? Try Apex or Nova...you will not be disappointed!
Thanks for the reply. I guess what I mean is that it seems like the widget/icons are not tightly space thus not really utilizing all the available space that is useable. I hope that makes sense. For example, I have two widgets on my home page and there is a gap between them.
Thanks!
so you want to be able to resize the widgets?

Not so much resize the widgets as move them tighter together to utilize all the available space.
No... You are going to have to go to another launcher to do all that. Try Nova....

Thanks Naddict. I tried Nova and still can't seem to get all the widgets together tight enough to utilize all the space

Does anyone know if this is possible to do. I think it would give our nexus a better full screen effect.
Anything is possible but it supposedly killed performance on old versions
But I would also like to see this in the future
And also there are multiple threads explaining this bump

well, you can't get transparent navigation bar in JB by changing the background only, but you have to do your changes in smali too
A black to transparent fade in both status and navbar would be sweet as hell.
Please make this happen <3
Just like in Atrix HD
Bump! lookin' forward to this mod
What does the atrix launch with? ICS or jb?
Bump! i'd love it!

ICS for sure. When JB was released, it was only available for the Galaxy nexus, nexus S and motorola XOOM, and the Atrix was out before that
What's with all the talk about status bars? The guy asked about the navigation bar (where the soft keys are)
Haven't seen anything about it. But I agree that it would be pretty sweet and I would be down.
I've read on another thread that someone managed to make the navbar transparent. Only problem was the glow from touch stayed after using the buttons...
Haven't read that thread in a while, think it died.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I have been thinking about this too since the day I got my Gnex..
I use a black background usually, but I think it'd be very very cool to get the navbar to be transparent. Even if the button glow had to be removed (when I run AOKP, I turn the button glow off anyway - I think it looks retarded how it gets cut off on the top and bottom on shorter nav bars).
Would definitely be interested in seeing something done here.
Couldnt we just get a cm build from them and copy the framework required?
I'd love a transparent volume indicator. I know its available but I want to have it on the stock Google ROM.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I would love that too
Awesome would be 80 or 100% transparebt Statusbar i think kind of easier. But i don't know either.. but i may be wrong

I downloaded the Rom Slim Bean.
So far I'm loving it.
Now I believe this rom interface display is smaller, the dock look smaller, the battery status icon hour and the rest of them. The text is also smaller and I have no idea how to increaze the interface overall size. I know there is a text size option but it's not what I'm asking.
The problem is that all the themes from the app THEMER won't be adjusted correctly how they should. For example: One of the themes loaded and it was more to the right and the icons aren't place correctly and it interfere with different actions.
Is there anyone who knows how to fix this small problem?
Thanks.
