Hi Guys,
I was just checking if I can get the Galaxy S like home screen on my DHD and found the TouchWiz Launcher APK in the forum. I was able to install this successfully but the Icons it is showing are the default Sense icons. Is there anyway I can change the Icons to Galaxy S like icons.
One thing... I have not rooted my handset yet.
Thanks.

Hmmm not exactly the answer you may be looking for but try purchase ADW EX Launcher. It has an iPhoneish setting which gives icons a coloured background and you can use the horizontal swipe app drawer aswell as modify the dock to a touchwiz style interface.
Regards.
I tried ADW Launcher with Gal S Theme which gave me Icons like Galaxy S. But In ADW, I am not able to select dock with 4 icons. The options are only 5, 3, 1 or none. So, I tried removing the Dock completely and extended the home screen to 5 rows so that I can use the bottom row as 4 icon dock. But the problem now is there is no dock at all in app drawer as well.
Just bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and the homescreen has 4x4 icons only!!!?? What they thinking !!?? On such a large screen a 4x4 icon only!!!??
I know you can add another launcher, but then you loose functionality like pop-up notes when you pull out the pen, probably multi-screen too etc.
This really SUCKS!!
Is there some Touchwiz setting for this?//
Well i can say multiscreen works perfectly with the Nova launcher, i've had that launcher on the Note 2 since i bought it, and it runs perfectly...
Haven't noticed any problems with the pen or system using Nova, though i'll admit that it doesn't pop up with Notes when you take the pen out, not a massive compremise for having a better launcher though, haven't tried using it with ADW or any other launcher though

Thanks but don't you think this needs to be rectified by Samsung? What must have been their logic behind this ridiculous 4x4 icons on the Homescreen?
I am using the Nova launcher too. But it just bugs me that I cant use all the functionality with my phone.
There was already a topic about this subject!

The original note has 5x5... but u cant resize third party widgets so they look horrible. . So I guess 4x4 is better

Instead of complaining, have patience. These things have a way of getting fixed.

Hi
So I am trying the s5 port roms for note 3. I am not happy with the changes they made with s5 launcher and most of all that change of menu to recent apps. I tried several fixes and nothing works. I tried a third party launcher like apex and I got the function back. so I determined it's an issue with the s5 launcher. can anyone post a link to n3 default touchwiz launcher? That can be used on a s5 port rom
Thanks
Does anybody know where I can get the s8 icon pack for the note 5 that works with the stock ui?
The only way you can get icons to use with stock UI is on the Theme Store. Not sure if they have the S8 icons.
