[MOD] Modified & LagFixed TouchWiz Launcher

As you know, in galaxy s when we install 4-5 page programs , lags is appear
The touchwiz launcher is lagy too and when we Turn pages the lags is apear
I decompile touchwiz.apk and i explore folders and in res folder i saw few folders that named xxxx-xxxx-1024x600 and i guess this names means 1024x600 pixel like galaxy tab and samsung create a touchwiz that could be use in galaxy s and galaxy tab!
I decided to deleted that folders had a 1024x600 in the last of name and i compile apk and push it to galaxy and i see that is work lagless and very fast and smooth
I made an update.zip of this modified touchwiz and upload in attachment
Guys you can test it and leave Comments on this topic
I forget something
I change the homescreen_menu_shortcut_bg.png with glass one and you can see in pic

What firmware versions does this work on?
Does it overwrite the default TouchWiz?
Is it compatible with any Lagfixes?

this launcher is last version of touchwiz that used in jpm/jp6 roms and must work on any version of roms
yes , this launcher is compatible with any lagfixes

I am sorry, what has been changed from default?
Lowered the resolution or something?

i think you should work with the guy that did the TW mod script:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792817
together you can hack tw and make it work better

Just flashed it via CWM on Voodoo-Doctor-Edition-JP6 and seems to be lagless flipping between pages. G8 job!

Amazing!!!!!!!!
It works!!!!!! Great Work!!!! This launcher is more fast, even using various widgets and an animated desktop. Thanks!!!!

No, based on what he wrote, he deleted icons and textures for use on Galaxy Tab. I wonder if it really does make it faster, though.

No effect here. Still laggy as hell.
EDIT: maybe it's because I'm using a lagfix? I have 5 pages of apps. Not that much if you ask me :S

Can you guys still uninstall apps from the drawer?
Last time I replaced TWlauncher I had lost this ability.

interesting.....

I recommend editing the LauncherConfig.java class to enable the fly in effect when opening the app menu, pretty nice.

My attachement contains a classes.dex which has the ability to uninstall (non system) apps from homescreen + fly in effect.
Remove .apk and .odex first, then push this to system. I always switch to an other launcher before doing that..
@Spike_M
When I delete all folders with 1024*600 in the name, apktool gives some errors..

On reboot touchwiz doesn't load - it gives me a fc error: The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly.
How do I go back to the original touchwiz?

Do you have adb enabled? Otherwise you have a problem..

I have adb installed, but my pc won't detect the phone when plugged in via usb.
It seems like the only solution is to flash another update.zip via recovery. An update.zip of the original touchwiz should work, if someone would be kind enough to put one together. I wouldn't know where to start...
Edit: or is there a way to install an apk via the recovery menu? Long shot, I know. I was thinking installing LauncherPro would bypass the fubar'd tw.

i use modified launcher and its work like a charm
for those guys want to get back original touchwiz
1- download update.zip in attachment and copy it to your internal memory
2- instal it from recovery 2e or cwm recovery

Thanks but I can't access the internal memory of my phone. Now what?

Tw launcher is definately faster now. Try pinch to zoom and see! It even made me consider reverting from launcher pro.. Great fix, thanks!

its not 100% perfect but youre as close as ive ever seen anyone come so far!
damn nice fix!

I think I noticed an small improvement with that fix: 55apps installed (6 pages in app drawer), but there is still some lag...
By the way I'm really glad that there is people trying to improve the performance of TW. I really like TW but the app drawer is laggy I'm still using froyo stock launcher...

How to back up widget on screen

Hi guys
I'm working on a them for our gs, with launcher pro plus
My theme use a lot of widget and complexe position in different screen (7)
Is it possible to create a back up for all the widget and their position and cook a rom that use all my work ?
the idea is: you flash my custom darky , and after the install and 1st boot, you have all widget in their right place in launcher pro
But A thing makes me perplexed .
When i go to launcher pro tools, at "back up homescreen ans sittings" there is a prevent message:
Due to limitation in the Android system, widget connot be backed up.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Damned
Anybody have a solution to this?
is it realy IMPOSSIBLE to make something like that with android and launcher pro?
I can believe that..

Here's a trick
When restoring with launcher pro do this :
Restore
Then when it says to restart launcher pro, reboot your phone instead
When it loads your widget's should be functional.
Try it out.

thanks for the tricks!
But is it possible to save all widget position and put them in a darky's rom , so everybody can have the same when flashing?

Well u can edit the default workspace xml or using the method described above make it so when flashing the update.zip of the rom, it places a preconfigured launcherpro backup into the /data/data folder of launcherpro and hence upon restart it should work.
^^ All theoretical

[Q] [Request]Lockscreen problem

Dear All,
I wish to ask is there any solution to remove the original slide unlock ? Im using litenin ROM as well...Please advise.
Thanks.

you could install widgetlocker from the market, its very good, it lets you change the unlock sliders or add widgets etc to your lockscreen.

You can install qqlancher pro and along with it comes a MIUI type lockscreen. Just enable it from settings. Then you can use whichever launcher u want. the lockscreen will continue to work.

How to have basic functions from other rom in without apps

Hi guys I have installed the android revolution hd rom on my gnex and wouldn't want to change it but it saw a custom rom lockscreen picture with a function I would really like on my phone:
With stock when turning the screen on in the lockscreen you can choose if unlock or open the camera but nothing else; I think it would be useful to have also a quick SMS sending option or phone app opening!
Is there a way to install it without changing rom?
I dn't want to use apps like Lockscreen widget...

[MOD] S2/S3/S4 Accuweather Widget+Main Themed [App/Theme]

Accuweather Widget and Main Themed​
​
Well friends, after a really hard work, I present to you the S2 Accuweather Widget and main app themed.
i'm porting the AccuweatherWidget + Main from galaxy s3 thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/mods-xxugmk6-accuweatherwidget-t2073561​The widget is based on S4 MOD
so It should work on any JB odex/deodex rom even on cm10+ with tuchwiz.
Also if you are on a stock odex rom it may work if you delete the .odex files
I have tested on deodexed LSW rom and it works like a charm
To Install it just flash the zip via CWM. This will replace your stock widget and main apk so make a backup of both apk just in case
something goes wrong.
If you have any problems then delete the widget and the main apk data and then reboot.​

Cyanogenmod 11 nightlies
Hi smoky-jr,
i love your work. Do these work on cynagenmod 11 (i am using the nightlies from 26/07/14)
I have downloaded S2S3-AccuweatherWidget-Main-FullColorful.zip & S2S3-AccuWeatherWidget-FullColorful-Mod05.zip, went into cwm (version 6.0.5.0) and installed without issue but upon reboot neither of them is showing up as widgets?
The only weather widget displayed in the widgets is the clock (cynagenmood stock one) but if i go to settings/apps/all, i have two weather items there:
weather widget (com.sec.android.widgetapp.ap.h....) version 121105.01
weather widget main (com.sec.android.widgetapp.ap.h....) version 121105.01
Are these correct?
On each of them i can 'uninstall updates' and then it asks do i want to replace them with the factory one which i have selected yes to but nothing changes.
Any idea why they are not showing up in my widgets?
Do i need the accuweather app from google play installed first?
sorry for so many questions but this is by far the best looking weather widgets i have seen and would like to get them on my phone. Any help appreciated.

In order for this to work, you should have TouchWiz launcher for cm10-11
You can get it from the following link:
Galaxy S4 Launcher For HDPI
It should work for you.

Hi Smoky-jr,
Thank you so much for the reply and the link. I was hoping to stick with the default trebuchet launcher but i really do want your weather widget so i will switch to the Touchwiz one. I have tried most of the weather widgets on Google play and none of the look half as good as yours - its by far the best looking one i have seen! great work!
Thanks
Secc

Hi Smoky-jr,
I tried the launcher but it didn't show up in CM11 anywhere - not in any of the settings (i went through them all), not in apps, nowhere. I installed though CWM as they are all zips.
Maybe that version isn't compatible with CM11 (i am on the nightly version from 26/07/14). I also installed your mods but same as before, there are two weather items listed + weather daemon displayed in apps but all i can do with them is force stop/disable etc.
Sadly I guess i will have to do without these on CM11.
Thanks for your help.

i'm sorry,
first you neet to uninstall the touchwiz launcher then reboot.
you can do this with root explorer or another file manager with root permissions
second try to flash the following touchwiz launcher:
S4_launcher-eHDPI
this zip file contains the launcher and accuweather widgets
afthe flashing the zip file and you checked that the launcher are working only then you can flash my custom accuweather widgets.
Hopefully it will work for you.

Hi Smoky-jr,
I installed the launcher you suggested and Touchwiz was there which i selected and restarted. It seemed to work fine. I installed your widgets and again they didn't show up in the widgets - even though i was using the touchwiz launcher.
I don't think it likes CM11 nightlies (kitkat).....I must admit though i really didn't like the touchwiz interface, i much prefer the default trebuchet launcher in CM11. Even though it has far fewer options, i do prefer the look of it.
I want to thank you for taking the time to help, its very much appreciated. I think i will have to stick with the Sense v2 weather widget i have been using for now.
Thanks for everything
Secc

Wow great work, I'm gonna use this!

Hello Smoky-jr,
I installed the S2S3-AccuWeatherWidget (all MOD types) on my Galaxy S3 (SHV E210L). I could not see it correctly (check the screen shot attached)
Please help.
