I can't seem to find it anywhere but baked into ROMs. Its the 5x6 home and 5x6 app drawer mod. I found the 5x5 home and 5x6 and the 5x4 and 5x6 but not 5x6 and 5x6. I've got it on Universe S4 and I love it but I want to try out other TW ROMs and they don't have the dual 5x6 - it wouldn't be a huge deal but I back up my "TouchWiz-Home" in TiBu and restore it over any new ROM I try so I can keep my layout. That's not going to work with a smaller launcher.
Thanks.
Pull it off universe S4 and push it to system/app

Yeah just pull it off.. Its SecLauncher2.apk it should work with any Samsung based rom.
Sometimes I ask really stupid questions. I should have thought about that. I need to get sleep one of these days. Thanks.

Has anyone been working on this? I like the tw widgets and the ease of the ics widget/app drawer. If not i am pleading to the wonderful devs. Is this possible?

You can flash Calkulin's E4GT 2 Rom. After first boot you can choose to use TWLauncher as your default launcher. If it doesn't work, go to
Settings>> Manage Applications<< Scroll down to "Launcher" and clear default

I know that.that is not what I'm asking.I'm asking about a blend between ics and tw. Using the general tw launcher with the app drawer from ics that way the tw widgets arent sized all messed up.

modifying the app drawer to behave like stock ics would have no impact on widget size.
the stock tw widgets are obviously not compatible with the ics launcher because they are made for TW. so again i would like to see a modified TW launcher with the ics app drawer....

I think there's some confusion going on here. Widgets are not all necessarily launcher specific. There are some that are optimized for a certain launcher (as in TW) but that doesn't necessarily regulate them to only being used on that specific launcher.
If you're looking for an ICS look and feel I'd recommend either Apex or Nova from the Play Store.
My personal favorite is Apex. If you're worried about keeping the widgets looking nice you can long press a widget and then resize it. You also have the ability to customize the number of rows and columns to get it feeling 100% perfect.
Nova has a lot of the same things and some people prefer it over Apex but most of the advanced features require you to buy the pro version.
Here's a screenshot of a TW optimized widget I resized in a variety of ways using Apex.
Hope this helps.
Good luck!
I'm on nova and I changed the number of columns and rows to Max and added force allow to resize Widgets so I kinda have them working

Is there a mod to move app drawer to the middle on tw launcher sorry if I missed it some were else have looked till my eyes hurt
I know I can use alternate launcher but I want tw widgets
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Unfortunately no , please correct me if im wrong.
Nova Launcher Prime, with Jorte (calender app) & Transparent clock & weather are the replacement TW widgets
Ive been to note 1 and theres no famous mod for this untill now. You can use launchers in the playstore but then you loose touchwiz

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.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
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.
