I know to do it with the OG vibrant you would need to go in to a rom dump and then to system>app> and copy "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk" Then you could edit it how you would like. At least that's what i did when i wanted a costume launcher.
Have you checked out market apps like Launcher Pro or Go Launcher? I know they are not exactly what you are looking for... but they are pretty sweet

The answer is no. The question is however why anyone would want to use that dodgy Samsung software
If you want Menu and Dock in Galaxy S style download ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro from Market

The menu aint the same, even if you use launcher pro?
I found that my ROM (RCMix v2.2) have something called Home Screen Selector. I can change my homescreens between: HTC Sense, Orange Homescreen and Samsung Galaxy S Homescreen (but without widgets ).

Themed Blur launcher-Request

Hi All,
Since most of us have been moving to US Tmob and GB froyo, the blur launcher has been tweeked and made to work like a gem. It is really smooth and I do not find necessity to go to Launcher Pro.
Walter had previously put out a themed blur launcher like this one for his MS2 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743372
Unfortunately it cannot be used on these froyo builds. Can anyone please theme the stock launcher please?.
I tried many times on all froyo builds to make the themed launcher work but could not do so. Walter had given a zip file to install it from CWM but that kept bricking the phone and I had to use alternate launcher to keep the phone running and flash an sbf.
Can anyone do that pleaaase ?
Im with you on this one too. I actually like the original blur launcher but it would be nice if you could actually change the assignment of the right hand button to go to text messaging or setttings etc..
Wondering where walter is these days. He can help if he sees this.

[Q] Downloading and changing themes on rooted thunderbolt

Ok so I am a complete noob and just started getting into using my phones complete capabilities. So that being said I have managed to root my thunderbolt and want to find/download/apply and xbox 360 theme. Is there anything special i need to do such as anything in bootloader before i can download and apply a new theme?
The theme has to be compatible with your launcher. If you're still running Sense, you need a "skin", not a theme.
i would say try adw launcher and the xbox theme from the market. *Note* you dont need to be rooted to do this*
Most, if not all, themes are launcher specific as stated before. Launchers like ADW you just download the theme, open the settings for your launcher and find the themes area. Apply your theme and reboot.

how do i do this??

In the gingerbread firmware for LwW and other similar series of sony, i see those four corner shortcut curves (which actually is not so good looking) how do i remove it??? okay i'm rooted and i run custom firmware!! but i just want to run a rooted stock without those shortcuts!!!
this four corners is part of the home launcher.
use another launcher like go launcher or holo launcher
alright then will it be possible to replace the home launcher of gingerbread with that of the ics??

Just install a different launcher. There are many free ones available on the play store. My personal favourite is go launcher.

Have you thought about trying MIUI? You can basically customize anything and everything
EDIT: why dont you want to root your phone?
Roms are the way to go along with custom launchers and themes. Btw i feel this is in the wrong section

I second that, however if youre not looking for a new rom you could always try another launcher like go ex or adw launcher, or even flash the galaxy s3 launcher
