[Q] Customising TouchWiz with different home screens / bottom row icons? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Apologies in advance if this is more appropriate in the Themes & Apps section, however this is a question so I thought it should be here.
I've been looking at how to customise a couple of things in TouchWiz to achieve the look I want but also balancing functionality.
Specifically, I'm trying to do the following:
1) Different wallpapers set up for each screen.
I have looked at Multi Picture Live Wallpaper but based on what the dev. has advised, this does not appear to work on ICS so that rules it out at the moment.
I'm also not necessarily keen on using an alternate launcher (tried Nova) because removing the S-Pen doesn't trigger anything when removed with Nova as the launcher - and that's something I'd still like to have working.
2) The icons on the bottom row / dock of the launcher. I would have thought they were customisable but they don't appear to be. The instructions that I found suggested you need to open your app drawer -> Menu -> Edit and you should be able to drag/replace items in the dock area. However, when I try to do this it doesn't seem possible.​
For context, I was inspired by this: http://mycolorscreen.com/2012/11/23/white-serenity/ and want to take some of the ideas and apply them to my Note2.
Does anyone know how to do what I'm after?
Thoughts appreciated.

Can't answer your 1st question, because I don't really care much about wallpapers, but in answer to your second question, just long press on an icon in the dock and you can move it off and back on the dock. If you move other icons over the top of existing doc icons, you can create a stack.
Regards,
Dave

Thanks Dave, had tried long pressing already but it does nothing for me.
Pressing and holding icons on the homescreen brings up a message box that says "You can resize widgets, and reposition widgets, shortcuts, and folders by pressing the menu key and tapping Edit."
However, when doing so - the dock disappears.

You long press on the icons in the dock, not the homescreen.

Thanks, apologies if I was unclear but that does not work either -tried the obvious stuff first.
Is it working for you?
The only thing I can think of is that my rom may be slightly modified by my carrier (Optus, Australia) as it has some a couple of bloat ware apps and something they have done is affecting it.?
Regardless, I had a play with Nova launcher again and given how customisable it is I'm okay with giving up the S-pen pop up menu.
Still trying to figure out multiple wallpapers bit may have to compromise on that too.
Cheers for your responses.

Thanks, I had been trying to get that working but the best I could do was getting it to display one wallpaper even though I had 5 set up.
After realising i had to also change the scroll wallpaper option in the *nova launcher settings* rather than just the Multi picture live wallpaper settings it worked correctly. Now I have multiple different backgrounds displaying.
Appreciate the responses with help guys.
(Still can't edit dock icons on the stock launcher though -which is odd -but as I'm using nova now I'm not overly concerned. )

Interesting that you can't remove the dock icons - I do believe some people had the same issue with Optus branded Galaxy S IIIs. What a bizarre carrier customisation.
Best bet is to flash an unbranded stock ROM.

With Optus version here too. same problem, can't find any resolution...... Is the Optus customisation team high? Why would they remove something so intuitive, so simple, and so necessary!?

Worse. Incompetent.
( I kid, I kid. )
Nice to know I'm not the only one experiencing it though.
Only resolution if you want to use TouchWiz and have an Optus handset seems to be flashing another rom.
I haven't run across anything else that is a show stopper for me though and as I'm getting what I want with Nova Launcher (with the exception of the pop-up S-Pen menu when the stylus is removed), I'm reasonably happy.
This is how it's working out so far - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35096760&postcount=821
Edit: Thanks Onslaught - if they've done it on another handset model as you've suggested it's either a silly oversight or a silly decision.

Hi folks
I contacted Samsung about not being able to change the dock. This is the response I got:
“In response to the customer’s enquiries, unfortunately we you can’t change the dock icons as they are locked in, this is actually due to a patent issue we had with another manufacturer. This is not actually a fault of the handset but a design specification. It will not be changed in the future.
In relation to replacing Google Chrome as the Internet browser, that is also not possible. The user can drag the app onto the home page so he can more easily access it. Again, the dock icons can’t be changed or replaced.”
So if the problem is limited to Optus handsets in Australian then I'm thinking this answer is a bit of BS? Anyone have one of these on Telstra? Vodafone? and have the same problem? I'm assuming everyone else outside Australian can change the dock icons?
Thanks

One of my colleagues purchased a Note 2 via grey import (thinkofus.com)
and hers does not have the same restriction so it definitely does not apply to everyone. Not sure about other carriers in Australia though.

If you have root access you can unlock the dock icon edit function by going to /system/csc/other.xml and find

I bought a Telstra branded version yesterday and it has the same stupid restriction, so I guess it's an Aussie telco thing. I have no idea why carriers think this sort of thing is a good idea, it just hobbles good technology, and annoys people at the same time.
Anyway I flashed a generic Singapore 4.1.2 firmware today and it fixed everything up (as well as getting rid of some Telstra bloatware).

If you use Nova Launcher you lose the S-Pen pop up menu? Which menu, the one where you take it out of the phone or the one where you can make a quick note? I'm getting one soon and wanted to use Nova Launcher.

Thank you, you're awesome - I've decided that I'm actually happier using the functionality of Nova Launcher but really appreciate you posting a solution as there are clearly other Aussies who wanted this fixed as well.

The Quick Note pop-up appears on Nova Launcher but the extra home page that appears and takes focus when you remove the S-Pen (only via the Default TouchWiz Launcher) is lost. On reflection, I don't find it that useful as it seems to be more of an introductory / landing page for the S-Pen and when I remove the stylus it's literally just to take a note - which I haven't done much of to be honest. On the additional landing page that appears when the S-Pen is removed, the Quick Note pop-up appears on top of this as well. So in my opinion, not losing much at all by using Nova Launcher.
First screenshot is in Nova Launcher, second is in TouchWiz (already closed out of the Quick Note pop-up).

I just got a virgin/optus Note 2 and I am trying to do the same thing by changing the icon in the dock but can't.
Curious thought on why some devices can change the icon and others can't... For those which can, is it a different model to the GT-N7105?? Maybe an early version?

It appears to be whatever is in the Australian ROMs.
The model isn't necessarily different as grey imports are technically the same.
Internationally imported handsets do not have this restriction and I can confirm I've observed this myself with other Note 2's from colleagues / friends.
So basically, either flash a new ROM, use the suggestion from Beeva in this thread (requires root) or use a different launcher to get around this.

[Q] ADW Launcher EX - Hidden dock bar purpose?

Hey folks,
I've been wondering what was the purpose behind the hidden dock bar really? I haven't been able to find a use for such a feature. In most case I'd something like FileCrypt...
Wanted to know what you guys thought?...
It's an extra dock bar where you can add more app shortcuts and not clutter up your home screen

Hidden doc
I used it to keep my desktop clean looking. No apps in the main doc and kept my apps on the hidden doc. That way I could have a really niche desktop pic with maybe a clock on it and one or two other information widgets and no other icons. I could just swipe and there's my doc.
I'm looking to download the previous version any ideas?

My UCCW Skin Collection

I'm in the process of reorganizing and editing my UCCW skins since I know more about it than when I first started. I'll be uploading edited and new skins shortly. The widgets I make currently are all 5x2 size except the Daft Punk skin. That was my first attempt at making an actual skin, I'm still fairly new to this app. I have no idea how to get weather icons to show up again. Once I get an idea I start working on it, and I usually wind up changing a few things before I'm done with it. I'm so indecisive at times it's irritating lol. I'm open to ideas and suggestions, as well as critiques (don't be to harsh, I'm still new).
I was using Nova Launcher with Prime add-on for the Daft Punk skin, Scarface skin, and Elegance Skin. I'm now using TSF Shell which I LOVE for the Mortal Kombat skin, Killer Instinct skin, and Swirl skin. The hotspots I assign and use are pretty much universal. I don't want to "force" you to use an app you may not even want. If anyone runs into an issue with one of my skins, please advise me of it so that it can be corrected. I use wallpapers I've found on the internet and/or Zedge. I'm not trying to take credit for things that aren't mine.
Thanks for the uccw skin. what widget is that on the bottom right showing att lte network connection?

That's a very nice setup you have. You're right, the possibilities are practically endless for this app. I'm still learning how to use it and do certain things with it. I do have a question that maybe you can answer, where can I get additional font files to use for the widgets I create? I happily donated to show support for something that will keep me occupied since I'm constantly changing things around on my phone. I've attached a few examples, but I'm not using them right now.
You can use ttf files, just make a folder called "fonts" on your sd card, I find them all over the net for free.

Thanks for those websites, they've come in handy for me. I have a question for you though, are you familiar with making full screen widgets? I'm trying to make one now and honestly, I see why people just search for themes. I used to have an HTC Inspire 4G so I decided to try and make a HTC Sense 2.1 style widget. I can't get the sizing right, and it's a hassle trying to actually use it. I tried to make it Apex/Nova launcher friendly first because I don't think everyone has/wants TSF Shell. You can see the issue in the screen shot, and to do that I had to enable resizing and overlapping widgets and then send the full screen one to the back. I preferred the sizing abilities in TSF Shell because I can be more precise when adding new widgets/folders/apps but just make sure to add the full screen uccw widget last but even still, there's no send to back option so would the transparency in the widget allow me to use the other items on the screen? I know this is a very difficult and round about way to have a sense style look because there are plenty of themes for it, but I was just thinking outside the box compared to what I've already created.
I haven't really tried anything like that, and I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do. Are you trying I to have like a wifget-in a-widget sort of effect?

Exactly, I've done it before in Nova Launcher just on a smaller scale and only because I positioned certain widgets on top of others for a look I wanted all on one screen. I've put this particular project on hold until I learn how to use the send to back option in TSF Shell if it even has one.

App Drawer List Mode?

I just got my Note 4 and one of the biggest things that is bugging me (besides the delayed menu button) is not being able to have my installed apps display in an alphabetical list. Is there anything that can fix this?
I found an app calle 'App Drawer' but I am now unable to remove the default 3x4 grid icon on the bottom right which makes having 2 icons for different app drawers incredibly annoying!

Hey Dreyzzyn,
Did you ever find a solution for this problem? I just upgraded from the Galaxy S3 to Note 4 and very much miss my apps in "alphabetical list" mode. So much easier hitting the starting letter of the app you want and BAMN...a listing of apps with that letter pop up. But this Note 4 is confusingly not allowing me to do it.
Thanks in advance. Thought this phone was supposed to be so powerful...yet I find I'm missing my S3.

Get a launcher!
Note 4 stock does not allow listing of apps, to do this you must install a launcher. I use Apex but there are many out there. Just install it and pick set your apps to list view. As far as lag, to get rid of it just set Window, Transition and Animator scale to "off" under Developer options and you should be good to go. I've done that since the S3 days no problem and phone gets waay faster.

I think you misread the original post as he's looking for an "alphabetical list'. This is not possible on the Note 4 as it was on Note 3 and Note 2. If you think it's available please post of screenshot of that instead of just showing that you can sort apps alphabetically which every version of android can do. Two, totally different things. I've posted what an "alphabetical list" looks like in Apex since you can't do it in touch wiz. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31104043/screenshot.JPG

[Q] Few Questions!

Hello, I just bought Note 4 and me previous phone was Note 1! Its a big change but some stuff isn't in Note 4 or maybe i dont know how to use it yet
First I want to use customized widgets on lock screen, I could do that in jellybean but in kitkat i cant put any widgets on lock screen and there I tried to Google it but couldn't find any options called "enable lock widgets" in security settings, its not there!
and I dont want to use and thrid party softwares like lockgo
2nd question is about S-Note software, in Note 1 I could type some mathematical equations, i dont see this option anymore in Note 4, and I could make Squares and Circles manually which isn't available too
That is a huge leap!
I don't know about lockscreen widgets, as I never liked, nor used, them, but my guess is Samsung ditched them because they won't be in Android 5.0. Instead, we'll get notifications on the lockscreen, which I think will be infinitely more useful. I do know how to get S Note to recognize formulas, though:
Open S Note. Write a formula with the S-pen (or your fingers). Then, select it using the selection tool at the top. (It will tell you which tools are which if you hover the S-pen over them.) Then, click Transform Into when the menu pops up. Finally, click formula.
Ok thanks for the answers, i have one more question
I could use a wide wallpaper and when you move your home screen it extends to far right and left so you could see more of the wallpaper but now its always fixed picture,I tried to use some other software from Play but none of them worked

a couple that come to mind right away would be to have the edge bring up apps for multi-screen, another would be jsut to have it bring up recents, then remap the recent button to menu.
would be great is somehow the edge screen could be on everytime the main screen is on, without any other user intervention..

I agree with this x100 for notifications. The whole swiping back and forth is stupid and cumbersome. I currently use an app called " no led" to show my notifications, but it would be awesome to have them just always scroll across the edge screen.

Personally the only mod I want is the return of Ambient Display.
Moved from S4 to S6 edge - love the device except for 3 things - no continuous scroll of pages / screens - no voice control for alarm clock / music and can't sort apps alphabetically - not sure if this is the right place to post this but worth a try - i am a major noob with android but is it possible to copy the code for these options from an s4 to s6 - another lower priority one would be glance view - i know they tried to cut bloatware from touchwiz but to me these were excellent features

Ah, so you're using an International device. That would explain a lot. Anyway, let's try to stay on topic here. This thread is for requests on the "Edge" hardware function of this device. Trying to see what we can actually do with the "edge" technology.
Actually, I have one request which @dsexton702 already knows about, but just to give you all an idea of what this thread is for. Edge on both sides at the same time with different functions on each side instead of just using one side at a time.
Hardware huh... LEDs!!!!!!!!
