[Q] SGS Tools - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So im looking at the screen in SGS tools and im curious as to what certain things are. Just a quick question. Under upgrade stock apps, the Upgrade TW Launcher... is that the colored/see through tw launcher from obsidian?

why dont you try it?
theres a restore_twlauncher in the restore thing i think and you can do that if anything happens, so make sure theres another launcher in case this doesn't work.

Don't do the Upgrade Touchscreen firmware...

[Q] Updated vibrant doesnt hav froyo lock screen

I just upgraded my vibrant through kies mini, but it doesnt have the froyo lock creen or home screen looks exactly like before. is this normal?
It is normal. It is just stock touchwiz.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
how do I know its stock touchwiz?
how can I get the froyo lock screen instead of the touchwize one
Its stock tw. Look at it. Dl the asop deodexed ka7.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
ok, so how do i get to look like froyo?
-Get a custom rom
or
-Root then change some framework res in the files
or
-WidgetLocker app
but wasnt that suppose to come with the update?
I'm pretty sure TouchWiz is a T-Mobile theme basically, that's why you need a custom ROM to get the real Froyo look.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Surprised they don't have stock lock screen, my galaxy tab has the stock froyo lock screen but came with tw home

No, you need to root....simplest way:
Google z4root, put it on your phone and run it.
Then flash ClockWork Recovery
Download KA7 deodexed, install
does this rom hav any bugs or issues?

Probably, but it is the leak straight from Samsung, just deodexed, nothing else.

Probably better than KA6 though. Consider KA6 2.2 and KA7 2.2.0.1 or 2.2.1, some things are probably better than the stock KA6

[MOD][LAUNCHER] TouchWiz 4.0 for KB5 Froyo [EDT][5.10.2011]

Hello everyone! I have something new for you all to play with. I bring to you Touchwiz 4.0 for KB5 froyo! This is a port of fr4gg0r's modded version with customizable options from this thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
Flash zip at bottom through recovery like normal. Reboot will take about 5 minutes as this wipes the dalvik-cache. Anyways... enjoy!
Oh, and edits had to be made to the framework.jar for the launcher to work. Framework.jar still supports power menu so there is nothing to worry about as far as breaking other mods.

it means for everyone with a modded power menu, it wont change it.
like if you have a custom rom and hold the power button it has more options like "reboot", "download", etc.
so are we flashing this thru CWM or any other recovery?
EDIT: Oh wow I missed that line in the OP. haha my bad.
After flashing will you be able to switch back to a different launcher if you don't like it? Say using home switcher?
Trigger 3.2
of course you will

I was digging for new themes for our JVP/JVQ GB Roms and found this.... I'm going to be trying these ASAP
Note that these themes are NOT GUARANTEED to Work on all roms,,, Flash at your own risk. Naturally make backups

Good find, thanks.
I believe the themes have to have the same number of lockscreens to work on our vibrants.

I have heard this also... I just flashed the deep purple theme and all worked well except the phone app was gone for some reason.... it only had 5 lock screens though... mine had 9 originally
It will work fine unless you chose a lockscreen that you don't have coding for, then you've just bought a ticket to bootloop city

can you elaborate on that? I flashed the LEGEND X theme and I got in a boot loop. i had the puzzle lockscreen on before the flash
I have no idea how to check for this before hand but say if you were on the puzzle lockscreen and then you flash a theme that edits some .xmls then you might have a situation where the lockscreen is looking for an .xml that doesn't work it anymore (or maybe is completely missing) and BAM your phones figurative brain explodes and sends you into bootloops. That's my understanding anyways so anybody feel free to correct me.

The obsession one has 10 lock screens. I'm going to try it anyway
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I think everyone that tries one needs to report back if everything worked or not and we need to start a list of which ones actually work for us.
I would use the standard android lockscreen since its in pretty much all themes and roms. To avoid possible bootloops or worse.

that's what I've been going for as well. Great idea. So far the deep purple one worked for SH 4.0... It looked nice but the phone app was gone for some reason. And the legend x one put me in a boot loop.

Possibly I'm not sure the only MIUI that I have used is Blackwatch and Alex's and LP seemed to work fine with custom icons on there
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Ive used miui for along time, never had luck with any of them when using different launchers, they seem to conflict with the stock miui launcher. It might help to use titanium backup and delete the stock launcher, just make a backup first so you dont end up with a black screen if you uninstall your new selected launcher.

Galaxy SII Lock screen

Is there any way that we can get this masterpiece? I'm kind of tired of having the old ICS/JB lock screen.

Try out WIDGETLOCKER and then go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=527
and look for a thread full of widget locker themes- shouldn't be too hard to find a SGS2 lockscreen
It wasn't there. But thanks for trying.

I know. I just thought someone would be able to make the standard touchwiz lock screen. I enjoy touchwiz a lot, and would like some of the aspects for JB. The ICS/JB lock screen is just so plain and hate how it's in a fixed location.

If you just like the touchwiz icons etc. There's a theme for CM10 that looks fairly close to Touchwiz, its what I use.

According to one of the posts on the widget locker thread, SGS2 lockscreen is not possible (idk why) but the poster did state that this app
http://app.miui.com/index_en.html
can do it for you (i don't know how, but I assume you install app and it has a theme section)
