Hi everyone , I was wondering if there was already a rom available that is bare bones stripped down touchwiz ? I looked all over the development forum and couldn't find one. If a rom developer wouldn't mind make a rom like this that would be awesome and much appreciated. And if you could add phablet or tablet dpi that would be awesome too. Thank you and don't forget to leave a link for men to donate.

Well just a couple things.
You can flash a bare stock ROM and change the DPI yourself with ROM Toolbox, but the Touchwiz launcher home gets really small, you would have to use Nova or Apex to have your home screen normal sized with a tablet DPI.

Where can in find this bare stock ROM, would really like the absolute most stripped down stock ROM I could find? Yes thank you I known I can change DPI thru multiple applications and I've noticed when changing DPI in stock touchwiz ROMs that the launcher gets a lil weird , that's why I was wondering if there was a way to get the tw launcher at a different DPI that didn't make it wonky. I have nova launcher right now. But thanks for you response.

Hey everyone, Go Launcher Dev Team released a beta HD Launcher for tablets.
http://golauncher.goforandroid.com/2012/03/go-launcher-hd-v1-0-beta/
Currently rocking it.
*It's just a beta and I'm sure all the great "GO" features are still to come.
IMO: Not as great as the stock HC/ICS launchers (Props to Google) but once they add a lot of features, it will be a great improvement.
Anyway, test it out see for yourselves and send feedback using, Menu in the top right.
Good new !! Thk

I like this. It is real slick. Not much in the way of customization, yet. But it is faster and much smoother.
I like the bar at the bottom better.

I'm with you on those two, was using Nova on my Nexus for quite some time, until I discovered Apex, that auto-grid feature is killer, more space on my tab and my phone, and things still look the same.
I did try Go Launcher, and it's pretty nice, but not for me, doesn't fit in with the whole ICS aestethic (which I love)
Apex FTW! I love the ICS look too, GO just makes me feel like I'm back on gingerbread or froyo

hi, does anyone know if touchwiz 4.5 works on ics? am runnin omega 3.2 ics rom now and i really want touchwiz 4.5 thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
I was using Omega but the Go Launcher was awesome, I have now moved to Resurrection Rom 9.6 unfortunately its a full wipe ROM but it works amazingly with the NOVA Launcher. I find the Touchwiz ok but NOVA gives a better experience in ICS
I tried to use it on resurrection 9.6..I doesn't work...I liked Nova launcher but it has very limited options and I don't like the black back ground in application drawer... two was simple and yet configurable and I liked the slightly transparent background and the bounce effect in application drawer and home screen which could be configured..again this feature is missing in Nova launcher...I feel Nova launcher has very limited options

thats exactly why a dont like nova launcher to mate. the app drawer in touchwiz is better. hopefully someone will fix it to make it compatable

Apex Pro on cm10/aokp because it can be themed pretty good, trebuchet on cm9 because I think it is a great launcher, the touchwiz one I modded with scrolling wallpapers on touchwiz because there is no point in running touchwiz unless you want the full experience.

I've found Nova to be the best since it's based off of the JB launcher. You can also rotate the screen into landscape mode while in the launcher which is a huge pro.

Apex can also be rotated into landscape mode When I had the gnex I was a big Nova fan but lately Apex has been winning me over. Also, the latest betas for Apex are based off JB. It really comes down to personal preference though.

I find it funny that a lot of people are using a stock based ROM with a different launcher and claim their stock based ROM is the best, when every single ROM available has virtually the same tweaks in them. lol.
started with apex pro. didn't feel as smooth so i went with nova.
I've been using ADW EX for years and everytime I try a different one I go right back to ADW.

I'm rolling with Touch Wiz, the first phone I've ever owned where the stock launcher is very nice.

I don't want to flash because stock based ROMs don't offer enough improvements and new features to spend time flashing and reinstalling everything, while risking to brick the phone. I rooted the phone mainly to install AdBlock and Titanium Backup.
I run Go Launcher and Dialer One.
A question for those who went from Go to something else- what do other launchers have that Go doesn't?
Nova launcher prime ftw.
FTL launcher is good also .

Had anybody encountered a flashable zip of a touchwiz launcher for use on 4.2.2 aosp? I've searched everywhere and it doesn't look like it's been made yet. Anybody have a link?

That's because it doesn't exist.
And why would you want it? There are not super special features of the touchwiz launcher. It's a pretty bare bones launcher. All teh features of the stock phone are built into the rom, not the launcher.

Because I like it. Same reason you want to use whatever launcher you use. I like the weather widget too, don't like any other ones as they just look like cheap imitations. I had one on the s3 but I guess nobody's made one for the s4 yet.

The widget adds ons aren't part of launcher. And those are even less likely to be ported.
What Im saying about other launchers is that TW is kind of basic so you could take a nova or apex and customize it to look just like a TW launcher.
But the widgets arent going to be available outside of touchwiz.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Yes it is possible, because I had the S4 launcher AND weather widget on my S3 running liquid smooth. It's just a matter of time before somebody makes one. I personally don't like any other launcher because they don't have that subtle smoothness that the TW launcher has no matter what you customize on them.
Also, nova and other launchers don't have the same transitions as TW.

I believe the ones you had working on gs3 should work on any 4.2.2 because it was universal no? did you try it? one of my friends have a compilation of ported apps and the one on there was made before gs3 was out. will check when i et back home. It should be in my sig though I think
