you cant.
you also cant use touch wiz specific widgets in launcher pro.
they are both coded for their specific home environment.
So how do I change the files ?
Why couldn't I just add the to system/app ?

how do you change the files as in recode them to work in another launcher?
you would need the source code and since neither touch wiz or launcher pro are open source, this is not possible.
your best option is to browse the market and find similar widgets.
otherwise if you want to use launcher pro widgets, you'll just have to use launcher pro.
same goes for touch wiz.

you could add them to system/app lots of people using the old mytouches and G1's used to put launcher pro and ADW there all the time, but it wont let you use the widgets interchangably, as they are coded only for their respective launchers.
it would simply free up a small bit of space in your data folder, and use a small bit of space in your system/apps folder.

Hi all!
I tried to install ADW Launcher or Helx Launcher 2 on the Tattoo but no success. I'm using a Modaco ROM, rooted.
Can someone assist?
Thanks
Genci
There are for android 2 and above versions, and you have 1.6. So you cannot install them.

But there is Helix for Donut, I'm using it right now. Go to this page:
http://helixproject.ruqqq.sg/
And the Donut version is last in the list. Enjoy
Yes but Helix launcher 2 is for android 2 and above afaik.
I never managed to install it in any 1.6 rom I've tested. Install and run fine in eclair 2.1 rom though.
Well, normally adb should complain during installation that it's the wrong Android version (if you install via cmdline)...what I do when I find a compatible Launcher is this (it's very risky, so don't do this without having any idea what is done):
1. If running on Sense UI, I upload the Launcher app into the system folder (let's say this launcher is called LauncherNew.apk)
2. Append .old to Android stock Launcher.apk and odex (mv Launcher.apk Launcher.apk.old && mv Launcher.odex Launcher.odex.old)
3. Rename LauncherNew.apk to Launcher.apk (mv LauncherNew.apk Launcher.apk)
4. Move Rosie apk and odex to sdcard and then pressing the home button
it's a bit brutal, but like this I'm saving lots of resources because no launcher runs in parallel...

Many thanks. Installed and playing with it now. It seems to me the icon size is smaller than Home...
Yes, many of the launchers do this to save space and providing the option to store more icons on one home screen...
Hi, i just installed a LPQ ROM, but it doesn't have the TouchWiz launcher (Yes, I like it), so i copied a touchwiz30.apk (something like that, i don't know if it's the correct one) in the system/app folder, but when i try to "open" the launcher it just forces close...!!! Has anyone experimented that??? Is there a fix? Or something like " TOCHWIZ 4.5 for ICS"?
TW UI is the default Launcher for the official Android 4.0.3 ROM
If you copied from GB, does`t work. Copy from stock LPQ rom
why do not you try the nova launcher? This is available in the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher

nova launcher is lame compared to tw4.5. nova is slow, and u cant even create folders as u can do in TW4.5 . lack of tw4.5 is the reason for me not to install 4.0.3.
probably he feels the same i do

Sounds like you didn't install the official release from Samsung. If you didn't, and the ROM maker removed the TouchWiz framework, you'd be better off re flashing the official Samsung release, as there are a lot more components than just that one .apk.

See above. Official Samsung releases will ALWAYS have TouchWiz.

It has already been done some times ago, you have to modify the framework etc to make it work, you can go trough the history of the forum to find rom under froyo which have a version of the 1.6 through 2.1 stock launcher.
To have a good launcher "4 corners" style, I suggest you to take a look at this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309287
You will find a version which may work on Eclair+
Best regards.
No , I want the stock launcher , wich its possible put one widget for page etc ... cuz I want a simple launcher

So you'll have to use the stock rom and launcher, which is in version 2.1.
If you have a rom with a superior number version (2.2 or 2.3), you'll have to use the one in the thread. And it's up to you to only put one widget per page ;-) I've one and only page, with a clock and a widget for a memory manager, that's all ;-)
Do whatever you want but you don't have so many solutions :-\

i want the ics stock launcher cause it shows the widgets preview in the app drawer itself.
Afraid it's beyond 2.3GB for that

Hi, To allow that happen, i'm afraid it's beyond GB 2.3 version. Requires higher platform support like 3.0 and 4.0.X, so far that kinda launcher which have that ability are Nova Launcher & Trebuchet, which is only compatible to 4.0 ICS. AOKP and CM9 ROMs have that support
But there's holo Launcher for 2.2+ from Mobint original developer, not sure got your mentioned function or not. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636393 Hope this info helps.
Sincerely,
whitefang

This is probably what you're looking for. I found it a while back and it works fine on my O1. I think it force closes on stock Gingerbread, though, but it seems to be OK for CM7 based ROMs. Link below:
SE_Active_launcher.apk - 825.30 KB
it works on my p500......oxygen 2.3.2 rom
but when i m going to add any thing like widget then it force close.,.,.,.,.,
tell me any solution .,,.,.,
Well, it looks like what I heard about it force closing on stock GB is true, then. I'm running neko's Ginger Snap 2.1 rom, which is CM7.2 based, and I have no problems adding widgets. Oxygen is an AOSP rom, iirc. Someone may need to port this properly to run on AOSP roms, which I'm afraid I'm not skilled enough to do.

Try to install as Systemapp. Download a Root Explorer and give root access. Browse to /system/app and copy the file to that path, set permissions to rwx-rwx-rwx and reboot.
You could try giving this version a try: Xperia_Active_Launcher.apk - 724.62 KB
