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.

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

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

Remember ADW Launcher from Donut/Gingerbread days? It's back!

Going to give it a try and see how it does when paired up against Nova & Apex.

Holy s**t, I gave up on ADW ages ago and jumped to Apex... I'm going to have to give it another shot and see how it compares. Thanks for the heads-up.
It's been a long time I haven't used ADW...
It looks good, I've been playing with screens and settings for 20mn... it feels like home, but better.
The best feature Apex desn't have is changing icons size... Just for that, I could forget Apex and stick to ADW (why creating 128x128 icons when Apex resize them to some tiny half sized icons ?!!)
I've encountered some few bugs (I guess) with theming dock.. nothing important though, as I usually get rid of it and go for full screen
Adding widgets pop up is amazing.. think tablet mode.. 2 panels with previews.. that's trully sexy.. <3

I wonder if they'd replace Trebucket with ADW as they did back during the CM7 days when ADW was the default launcher.

Did ADW ever go anywhere? They brought ICS style like months ago..before I got my Nexus I remember trying it out. In fact pretty sure I was running ICS at the time on my Xperia, so it was my first choice since it had the ICS look and Launcher pro didn't.
I don't particularly like it more than Nova, but at least I don't present my own opinion in such an unpleasant manner. *sets tea down
Jolly good to hear ADW back in business though! Now where did fedrico go..

First, I'm not as tech. savvy as you all here. I'm just a person who doesn't like HTC's Sense design and I'm not sure on how to get rid of it so I can have the true Ice Cream Sandwich experience.
So, I tried the idea the person had here: lifehacker.com/5600912/turn-off-htcs-sense-ui-on-your-android-phone. I went to homescreen and nothing changed at all. Then I looked through all of my apps only to find that there is no launcher.
I'm really iffy about downloading another launcher as that sort of defeats the purpose of trying to get/find the default launcher that should be here. What should I do?

Alright, thanks for clearing that up. C: Just tried out the Nova launcher and it already works just a little faster and looks much nicer.

Hello all. I've been using nova launcher for a long time and I've been irritated a little because nova is not a complete replica of the stock android launcher (android 4.2). What I mean is, it looks similar but the spacing of the icons are not right (which I am able to adjust through nova settings) and the folder when opened its too close to the edge of my screen. Is there any other launcher that can possibly give me the closest feel to stock launcher apart from the stock launcher itself?
Thanks

That I can do, but what I don't like is how the folders are pushed to the edge. There's supposed to be a bit more gap than the whats in default by nova.

Except it's not. The icons are at the top of their "areas" so there's a large gap at the bottom and almost none at the top. Changing the spacing affects both, so they are never even. Widgets seems to work properly. This has always bothered me about nova.

Can't live without nova prime launcher, the fact I can place more apps in folders an get rid of the useless stock search bar at top is worth it alone.
my question, why would they make a replica of Default launcher? if they're making a launcher they want to make sure its different and nothing like the default one..
if you know what i mean.. and btw i use nova launcher and i think its pretty neat and easy to use..
nova launcher is the best

There's one in the galaxy nexus themes and apps section, you'll have to find it, but I've used it before and it works just fine. Or the second alternative is to use the search function and find it, that would have worked instead of creating a new post.

Yes when will you change the Launcher2.apk (is TW) then you need root.
Install the Nova Launcher and runs really well.
You can adjust and change as many gestures, icons, dock and more and it runs without stuttering or crash.
For me, the best launcher in Android systems.

This will work with 4.3 but is buggy... the rendering differences between TW and 4.3 frameworks causes the page transitions to be 'flicky' ... not at all fluid.
