[Q] STOCK 4.0.X Launcher on SGS2

Hi Guys.
Is it possible to use the original android launcher for the Galaxy S2 (ICS 4.0.3.)? If so, where can I get it?
Now TouchWiz is installed and tells me not at all.
Thanks to all

yes, and if it does not work after that, try to reboot your phone

Alternatively, you could just download the Nova Launcher from the market. It's also based on the AOSP Launcher, but more customizable. You can make it look and behave just like the stock launcher, though.
It feels a bit more polished than Trebuchet to me ATM.

I found ApexLauncher on Play Store. A little bit better as nova

afaik none of the three support folders or tabs (to emulate new pages in TW) in app drawer, so TW still has some use

Hello guys,
I tried apex and nova .. not bad, but not allow you to create folders in the app drawer: (
Unfortunately this is a big problem .. I prefer the theme golauncher ics (golauncher is free but the theme costs about 1.50 €).

Is there any way to transfer over the tw launcher used in the last few beta roms? I really liked the transition effect of it.

How to make folder?

Hi.
I'm using CM9 beta 3 on my SGW.
I wonder, is there any way we could make a folder for our apps?
Not on the homescreen, but in the apps drawer.
Thanks in advance.

i don't think that's possible, the trebuchet launcher doesn't support that feature, you could use another launcher, like go launcher or something like that. hope i helped

Hmm. Quite dissapointing coz i really want to use that launcher. Btw thanks for your answer

Try Nova launcher or Apex launcher instead.
I personally prefer Nova, but tastes differ, of course.

You cannot make folders in cyanogenmod 9 because it's based on the original 4.0.4 without mods forms Samsung, so you can only make folders into the "desktop", but you can't make them in the App Drawer. If you want to, you have to change Launcher... :good:

Cool, what do you like about the Launcher?
If it's the slide effect you like, you will find it in several different launchers these days. Im pretty sure ADW and Apex launcher has them. Maybe even GoLauncher?
The rest is just a live wallpaper and icon setup
Edit: OOPs... a wallpaper and a widget. I don't know how he got it on the lock screen though.
Bazooka launcher perhaps?

Could also be another lock screen replacement like Widget Locker etc.

Go Launcher Weather Widget

I have the Go Launcher Weather Widget running on Nova but it seems I always have to update the app manually. I have checked my settings and it updates the location just not the temperature.. is it because Im not using the correct launcher? I like Go Launcher because it is really simple and clean.
Any suggestions?

Edge 5x6 Launcher with Speed Options

This is for KK. I will be working on a lollipop soon.
I know it isn't much, but I hate the stock screen grid, so I created a 5x6 launcher and apps grid. It seems to be working with all the widgets. Let me know if there is anything I missed. The home grid is 5x6, the app drawer is 5x6, and the folders are 4x5.
This should work on all roms that have twrp or cw. If you do not, but are rooted, take out the TouchWizHome.apk and put it into/system /priv-app/, delete the TouchWizHome.apk and TouchWizHome.odex(if you have it). Reboot and Profit.
I have made it so you will not have to do anything but flash the zip. You do not have to remove the odex file. If for some reason you do please let me know. All you should have to do is go into Settings, Application Manager, All Apps, TouchWizHome - Clear settings.
I have added the 5x6 regular speed, fast and insane. I've done the 4x5 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer that many have asked for. I did think it was kinda weird, so I made a 4x6 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer too.
If there is something I need to add to this please let me know, I was told I have issues explaining myself
Thanks Toss3 for the values to edit the launcher and SkywalkerZ for the values to edit for the speed.
If you like the post, please hit thanks

Here is a revert just in case...

I replaced the apk using root explorer and setting permissions.. works like a charm!! Awesome work!!

Could you explain what this is? Is it an overlay for the stock TW launcher? Or is this a completely new launcher, similar to using Nova?

Sorry, wasn't notified you posted on here.
If you aren't on deoxed, you have to delete TouchwizHome.odex.
Otherwise You might have to wipe the settings on Touchwiz Home

Once I get the bugs worked out, I can. They have an xposed module..."Stock Launcher 5x4 Modification" Check that out first and let me know

thanks . working perfect

Will this work for other tw roms or just lab rats?

That module doesn't do anything to the note edge launcher.
I'm really just requesting the app drawer to be 4x6, if possible. The homescreen can stay the same, I like 4x5. [emoji1]
