I apologize if this already exists, but I've searched with no luck. I'm using JOVY S3 DarthStalker V8 rom but not a fan of the 5x5 app drawer. Where can I find a mod that will allow me change the 5x5 to 4x5 app drawer? I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691957 but it seems to be geared toward a more advanced user than I am. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I really like this rom and don't want to uninstall to go back to stock. Any help will be greatly appreciated. :laugh:
You could always use a different launcher like apex or nova. Basically for the mod you linked above, all you have to do is just replace your current one with the modded one through root explorer.

I tried doing that through Rom Manager but the entire phone froze. I had to do a battery pull and re-install the ROM. I've been reluctant to try other launchers, but I'll give it a try. Thank for the imput

If you mean the one below its in system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk/res/drawable-hdpi and its called mainmenu_icon_application.
Grab a theme or rom that has this launcher included and unzip it with 7zip then go get it.
Is it possible to do that from my phone? Won't it tell me the apk is already installed? My computer is out of comission for a minute

I miss having a grid size of 5x6 when I had the note 2. I'm currently on the Wicked rom and didn't get an answer when I asked in that thread.
Hoping that maybe there's some mods I can flash.

In Nottach Xposed which is built right into Wicked you can go into launcher settings and set it to 5x5 launcher with the 5x6 app drawer instead of the default 4x4 launcher with the 4x5 app drawer.
Tried it but when I rebooted it still looked the same.

did you install the framework thru the framework installer built in the rom? If your running the app and making changes it wont do anything if its missing root or no framework. I would double check those, if its not working i dont know why. It worked perfect when i was running wicked v4
You can install another laungher. Apex and Nova both give you the ability to change the grid size.
Both are free on the play store so there's no risk in trying it out.
I reinstalled the xposed framework and it's working perfectly! Thanks guys! ^_^

I'm a new XDA user and new to rooting so please bear with me. I am simply looking for a TouchWiz launcher mod (I think mod) that allows me to use a 5x5 app format. I have the SGH-I317 with build: JZO54K.I317UCAMH3. Can anyone help me out?
You just need a different launcher...
Give Nova launcher a try from the play store..
No root required ...and it gives you the options to grid up to 6x6 I believe ...
Otherwise ...to get TW launchers with grid changes you would need root and a custom rom most likely ...g

I haven't had the best experience with launchers from the play store. Had a go launcher before and it was just too much. I went with the root because I figured I could just mod the touch wiz or flash a better touch wiz Rom.

Never mind. I gave up looking for a mod and downloaded the Nova Launcher. VERY easy to use, customizable the way I like and very smooth.
Now the only question I have about having multiple launchers is... How do I prevent them both from running at the same time? I already set the default that when I press the home button, it goes to the Nova Launcher. And then in Nova Launcher settings "swiped away" the touchwiz launcher. But is it still running in the background? Do I even still need it? If I don't, how do I remove it? And no worries, I have a backup from before I installed Nova.

Once you swipe away the tw launcher you have set nova as default. Only the default launcher will run. I would not remove the old tw launcher as it can be a backup in case nova acts up. In other words, its good to have multiple launchers installed. Only one launcher is active at a time.

Does anyone know how I can get my TouchWiz wallpaper to scroll without a new launcher? Want to keep Touch Wiz launcher. Some sort of mod I can install? I am running Macks Allstar 5.0.
Thanks!

i believe there is a mod in the xposed installer app. its called "scrolling wallpaper Touchwiz Mod." Download it, install, activate it in xposed, and then reboot. youll be set
