[APP] Touchwiz Launcher 4.5

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
Found this on Galaxy s2 forums.. I KNEW everyone would find this useful as a home replacement and appreciate the added customization over stock Touchwiz. Root access is required if your device comes with Touchwiz. This is Fr4gg0r and Swiftwork's work, not my own. Anyhow, check it out!

Yeah, I've been using this for quite a while on my OG Epic 4G.
Just FYI, install TW4Manager and do a check for latest stable version and it will install TW 4.5 for you.
*EDIT*
Install instructions
Before installation you need:
1. Root access.
2. An alternate launcher installed in case of installation failure. (the stock phone has Sprint ID launcher)
3. Backup and Uninstall: TouchWiz30Launcher.apk (I used SDXStockappremover but you can also use TitaniumBackup)
4. Install TW4Manager
To Install TouchWiz 4.5:
~Launch TW4Manager (fyi only runs in portrait mode)
~Scroll Down to "Check for Updates" -select
~Select "Latest stable version" (you will be warned that you should have alternate launcher installed)
~TouchWiz 4.5 will automatically download and install
Notes
~The default homescreen dock will be setup for 5 icons. To add icons go to appdrawer>menu>edit and then you can drag and drop your new dock icons
~Some preinstalled widgets will not work out of the box. To fix this you'll need to backup and uninstall them (such as DualClock.apk, SamsungWidget_ProgramMonitor.apk, TouchWizCalendar.apk) You can then go into TW4Manager>Widgets>SGS2 widgets-by randomguy123; select your widgets and install; After you install you need to restart Touchwiz in order to use the widget, otherwise it'll show an error when you try to use the widget.

How do I add apps to the dock?

It says that I should be using something other than touch wiz when updating for the first time. Is it ok to go ahead and update if I'm using touchwiz?

No, uninstall touchwiz using ti backup and then install the twmanager

Does this have hardware acceleration like the stock launcher?

It doesnt say in the thread but it runs exactly the same as the stock launcher except way more options. I havent noticed any speed difference.
If you like touchwiz, its a no brainer.

You need root for this right

how bout in your heading put ROOT so people know they cant just install this.

So I uninstalled TWlauncher through Titanium Backup, but when i then install TW4 Manager apk I still get the message that I need to install over a non touchwiz launcher. What am I doing wrong?

i've tried this twice, but it force closes constantly. on the first try, i just switched to GO Launcher EX before updating with TW4 Manager. i just tried it again after removing TWLauncher and TwWallpaperthingy1.0, but it still force closes. i hope it gets fixed so i can try it out.

Hybrid Bar in cm10?

hey guys
i'm using trip's cm10 rom (011) and i enjoy it really.
but i just want the hybrid bar from PA so bad
i dont want to have another dpi or tablet mode, just the hybrid bar.
is there a way i can include it?

Hmmmm. Try this: flash PA. After cusromizing accounts etc. get into app settings. Set it up to phone mode. Then, try to find interface/SystemUI app. Set the DPI to 220. Reboot and tell if it works.

Wont the DPI 220 break his market? (for some apps unsupported DPI)

i thought more about a flashable zip, because i like trips rom for his active kernel development.
in my opinion PAs hybrid bar is one of his biggest goddies in his rom, so it wouldnt be easy to get him to share it..

PAGOT said:

No, because PA sets the dpi per application not system-wide, so he's only changing the dpi that SystemUI displays in. The dpi set in build.prop isn't touched so the market works as normal.

friend is like I said, the app still does not change some apps, and tw is one of them, unfortunately ...
I got a good result with "nova launcher" or "chameleon launcher" ...

finally gave it a go today... and it works like a breeze, though i dunno what are all the apps that are compatible i changed chrome,gmail,settings for tablet mode and it worked perfect

Im dual booting pa at the moment which is fine. Thought this would save that but could not get 2nd part to work.

All I get is a homescreen which changes/flickers from black background to home wallpaper, but statusbar is working.
I just installed the mod without setting anything. Is it because of jkay framework?

Works for me also with jkay.

Too bad Google Play looks at the build.prop (?) to check what DPI the phone has.
It would have been great if this app and framework had fixed the incomptability problem for us with a lower DPI by just being able to change the DPI of Play.
Nice though to be able to change the DPI of Contacts and the other apps that don't scale well with a lower DPI!
Thanks!

I was looking for a stock Rom with dpi change function and found yours. But when I realized the trick was done by the Xposed, immediately instaled and started testing. Result: I'm using it on Ultima Rom for a week and it works just fine...
By the way.. PalestineRom looks great too. Next in line to be tested.

All seems to be working well except the camera keeps failing. Any ideas on how I can fix that?

Do like it. nice interface. a little small though Dialer didn't work even after pushing to system/app, but I may have done it wrong.
camera worked. No other major issues that I saw offhand.

When I downloaded the OP's dialer, I noticed it came in renamed "-1"... I deleted that portion, fixed permissions, reboot, and it worked...
Now if I could get my camera to work

Lovin this rom already. Was trying to flash this before it was ported cuz I wanted it so bad. Only thing is I cant get a gps lock or real time location on maps. Is there a remedy for this? Other than that this can be a daily rom for me
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

I was in the same boat as you!! ^^ lol im going to attempt to flash this too.

I've said this in its original thread and I'll say it here, this is what the note 2 should have been. The note 10.1's features have a much more premium feel to the spen and multi window than the default note 2 does. The two original devs did an amazing job, and in glad you've taken the time to port it over to Tmo. Now I don't have to use the half assed buggy port I did myself, ha.
Everything works great. If your phone won't open, then check OP's post above. He posted a new SecContacts to put in system/apps. Don't forget to delete the "_1" from the name.
Also, it seems that this didn't come with the Window manager, so if you want to add multi Window functionality to any apps then download this from the play store.
