Touchwiz4?

So I was wondering if there are any lag fixes for touchwiz4. Can anyonebplease explain to me why touchwiz (old and new one) is soo laggy when switiching screens? This is especially noticeable when using a live wallpaper. Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I get what you're saying there prevails to not be a fix. Just touchwiz in general.

it should work considering touchwiz has that same exact redraw lag.. i havent used touchwiz in a while cuz of the horrible experience and i just stay with go laucher.. but tw4 has been implemented with some nice features -__-

Work around for asop 4.0.3

Guys if you want an asop experience just flash racers tw port and adb push Apex Launcher into /system/app and remove tw launcher. Runs as good as it's gonna get with m&s's blaze modems and all the other hotfixes at least till t-mo drops 4.0.3 or the ril gets fixed on this.

thanks i might have to try that i honestly can't stand ICS flavored with TW

No problem, battery life isn't that great right now because we don't have a t989 kernel but its def usable until we get a stable rc candidate.

Did you update your op? I haven't had a chance to check cause I've been busy at work and I hate digging through countless redundant posts. Thanks for the hard work btw racing.

Not really a work around, so mush as using a different launcher.

I havent tried the romracer kernel but the unsecure mohan_kr kernel has booted up fine for me. I am really meticulous about clearing caches and superwiping though.

i hope some 1 gets a working aosp kernal down so we canfi have a nice vanilla ics fw

So does this work? Or april fools joke?

It works but battery life isn't where it should be until we get a better kernel. I'm pulling quadrants of 3900-4200 with this setup.

P.s. You can make Apex Launcher a system app with titanium backup by long pressing apex launcher and selecting the option to convert to a system app

Nevermind i found it.

Or you could get the trebuchet launcher and push it to system/app

I thought pushing these 3rd party launchers to the system/app was having the side effect of being slightly unstable? Is the payoff really that much better having it as a system app?

Stock launcher not fluid?

Is the stock launcher not very fluid in its tasks? Switching between menus, settings and apps isn't always smooth. I'm not saying the phone isn't fast but the transition between one thing to another tends to be jerky for me.
Not be anal, just doesn't seem right for a high end device.

Smooth as can be fore me.

Butter here.

smooth for me but i use apex launcher much better than stock.

Not this again..... there are like 10 other threads asking what is the best ROM/kernel.
Look at all the roms in dev forums and find which one best suites you.
most popular combo is most likely aokp + franco.

Nop, or at least in my case it wont prevent the screen from rotating and its annoying

Stock launcher seems smooth until you try apex (or some others)

I'm a little confused by the instructions.. I don't understand. Is this just a launcher or a rom?
If I install is it going to mess up my currently installed apps and settings?

No, just install it using CWM, like flasing a rom or gapps .zip
The Launcher is great, I really miss my Xperia phones now my nexus launcher feels smooth and fast like my Arc S

Cant wait to see what else they offer, might flash paranoid on my nexus and cm when all this nemesis business is over.
