Okay, this is going to sound so stupid. Is there anyway to get the UI and launcher from 1.6 on our Nexus 4's? I just personally love the look. Is it possible?

check out the retro ui theme in the general themes section. you will need to be running a rom that supports themes...like CM10.1 or PA.
Have you tried this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17319469#post17319469
Probably won't worth but worth a try.
There was a CM10 theme, not sure if it'll work. You could edit the grey app drawer dock/icon onto a wallpaper and use a upwards gesture from the bottom of the screen to launch the app drawer which is set to vertical.

Just tried them and it wasn't pretty, the notification bar icons were misaligned, and the notification draw was the standard black one from 4.2, such a shame.
bump, anyone know of any better themes?

That ui was made for hvga/wvga or something around that range, upscaling those graphics to 720p is just asking for trouble. Someone would need to actually recreate everything from donut.

This was part of a theme in the g2/desirez thread.
Is there anything like this for the Epic4g.

+1 on this
The dual locks would be awesome.
Pretty sure I would **** bricks if we had a lockscreen like that. I use sms popup, but this would be awesome.

If we're talking about the lockscreen then, like alfiej said, widget locker can fill it up with sliders and widgets. I do have a question about that link tho. Does the gingerbread lockscreen actually have multiple sliders and/or can it be customized like that on stock? Or is the multiple sliders a change made in CM6.1?

I really don't like running apps in my background (especially lockscreens).
1. They dont work all the time.
2. They take up too much memory.
I used widget locker and my phone died much faster than without it. I had my phone unplugged yesterday for 15 hours before it got down to 80%. With it, it was down at like 60%. Sorry dude.
No need to apologize dude, I just was naming what does this. I bought widget locker a few weeks ago and got a refund within an hour so I feel your pain.

What's dope about this one is above the sliders you can draw gestures and it will automatically launch those apps
I actually really like our stock lock screen because it basically has these same features. I'd probably go for this one if it was available to us because I like the vanilla layout better.

I am looking for some help. I like using sense, and would like to use a GB launcher.
I have found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035107
2.Real Gingerbread Rosie w/5 Column app drawer, Nexus S Style: (Chingy510)
http://www.mediafire.com/?8jamsekc4bvefvp
The problem is that it doesn't look right. There is a grey box over shadowing the launcher.
My question is that maybe Chingy510 or someone else can modify it to work and look good with Calkulin's eVio 1.8.
Thanks in advance!!

you're trying to use a 5 icon dock with sense widgets right? If so I suggest using launcher pro plus and launcher pro glass sense skin both are in market but they're not free. You can also add custom launcher icons to modify your dock bar appearance. The skin is almost exactly the same as sense.
Thanks for the replies.

Ah, sorry dude. I guess I stopped reading after "...and would like to use a GB launcher."
Ok so here is a snap shot of what I got. Maybe someone can help. I know its minute, but it's ocd to me.
Hi All!
I really love the new TouchWiz but one thing that is annoying is the scrolling on app drawer. it to much iphone and not so comfortable.
so I wonder, is there a way to change the app drawer so it will be scrolling down and has 3D like the stock android/adw?
Thank You!
Switching to an alternative launcher like ADW Launcher EX is probably the easiest solution.
Try the "Nexus"-preset & "Vertical new" for the app drawer!
I think you didn't understood me properly(or maybe I didn't explain myself clear):
I really like what samsung did with the TouchWiz 4. So I want to keep it.
I want just to change the AppDrawer to be vertical scrolling(prefer with 3d).
Is theres a way to do that?
Im used to app drawers with the apps sorted in alfabetic order.
Is there an easy way of doing this in TW4?

In the app drawer, hit menu and then 'List view'. A reboot will default to the original.
No 3d I'm afraid.

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.

It does look pretty amazing! I might give it a whirl this weekend when I get paid.....still worth getting.

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.

hi all, i just flashed my phone to ARHD 15.0 and i noticed that when i slide left/right in the home screen, the wallpaper no longer slide, is there a setting for this feature to be enabled? i cant seem to find it
thanks!
Wallpaper scrolling in the latest jellybean update has been disabled. The same must have been done with your rom.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
ohh, i see.. that kinda sucks anyways, may i ask why they disabled the feature? or can you point me to any links about this getting removed? thanks for the reply!
I think its something to do with a Apple patent. Apple are pure patent trolls and i hate them for that.

I guess it was basically because to allow the complete rotation of home screen.
also you can try different launchers.. wallpaper scrolling would work fine. It has been disabled with just rosie
Try apex or nova launchers.
I hate the way they got rid of it. It was something really cool in android, and I don't want to use a different luancher because senses looks nice also the extra ram usage, and its to much hasle to use Rom cleaner.
I'm pretty sure our awesome Devs will be able to add this feature to custom JB Roms.
6 screens
Anybody notice we only have 6 instead of 7 screens? There's a big gap where the seventh screen was supposed to be.
