Anyone who has flashed a ROM with the new touchwiz. Is there a way to change the apps in the "Mini Apps" bar? It would be really useful to have apps there that I actually use. Thanks.
Edit: I found the answer just a few threads below. This post can be deleted please. Thanks.

Hi guys, i want to buy a Samsung Galasy S3 but sincerly i don't like so much the Touchwiz GUI so i wonder if someone can say me if there is a way in order to delete Touchwiz with a Custom Rom or other way... I also wonder if someone can say me if the timestamp message is time of Message Sent or Message recive i explain well because my english isn't perfet (i'm italian) if i have phone power off and someone send me a message at 6:00pm, when i puwer on phone at 8:00pm and i read message, will i see the 6:00 pm in timestamp or 8:00pm ???
I hope you can forgive me for my bad english, thanks guys you're all a great people, i have only to learn from you
I ASK ADMIN IF GENTLY THEY CAN MOVE THIS THREAD, PLEASE.
Why do XDA even bother on creating a Q&A subsection in the forums...
sorry i didn't see i was in General, now i want to move post in right session or repost in correct session, but i don't find the way for delete this, how can i? sorry again.
Now to answer your question. There are many launchers you can use if you don't like touchwiz. Just install and when you hit the home button it will ask you which launcher you want to use. Check the block to make it your default and then choose the launcher you want.

Just Flash It !!!
Thanks for the answere, i know this way, but if i change launcher GUI keep the touchwiz or touchwiz is only the Launcher? i ask this because i think Touchwiz by samsung is inside the system and it take a lot of space and i don't think a launcher take so much space. maybe in a custom rom we can recover the space used by touchwiz and use if for other thing, maybe a smoother and lighter rom for SGS3 will improve performance. How about SMS timestamp?
You probably are referring to the touchwiz launcher. You can replace the launcher with apex or nova which are "stock vanilla ICS" launchers that include options to customize it. Apex is a better choice if you want a free launcher with many features...but if you want to buy nova prime I would recommend that.
The new touchwiz has some nice features, and replacing the launcher won't get rid of them.

laastan Regalia,
I've got a Nexus one and i tried to install ICS in order to try some launcher, i agree with you as Nova is the best, i will buy it but before i want to try use the Touchwiz, maybe i'll like ite... it isn't very bad as the Gingerbread stock launcher XD
So i have an idea, and i need to know if its possible and if so how to make it happen. I want to edit some of the widgets in Jellybean to look more like they should be in jellybean, for example i want to change the black new and weather bar to look more like the google search bar at the top of jellybean, and so on with other widgets. So my question here is: is there a way to open up the apks to edit these things? and if so would someone be so kind as to point me in that direction please. thanks in advance for whoever feels like helping me out, if im able to do these things and if people seem interested in using them i will be sure to post them on the forums.
Edit - So ive found the apktool and i think i know how to decompile something with it, though i havent tested it yet but what i need to know now is which apk are the widgets in jellybean? It seems that weather and news is genie.apk but i dont see it on my jb rom, and also i would like to know which apk is the power control widget in, if anyone knows please lemme know, thanks.
Hey there.
Sorry if there is a post already about this but I tried to use the search function but apparently it does not work at the moment.
I was just wondering if there is any way to install custom themes to our solas. What I am really interested in is going removing the extra backgrounds presented in the dialer and messaging apps. Hope there's a simple way to do this through root.:fingers-crossed: Cheers!
I find the new ICS recent app-style is quite laggy. Is there a way or can anybody make a MOD to get the old and fast gingerbread-style back?
I think that cannot be that difficult.
DEVELOPERS, HELP!
It's still there, some Xperia T statusbar mods had it when you clicked the recent app icon, but the home button behaved like in ICS. I don't know a way how to enable it with the home button.
You're posting in the wrong section though.
Please post questions in the stuck Q&A section. Thanks!
Hello everybody,
I would have asked the following question in the proper CyanogenMod thread, but I don't have the permission to post, because this is my first post.
I know it's not possible to install & use icon packs in Trebuchet Launcher as in Nova for example. Do you know if this feature is planned?
Where can I contribute? Because it would be great to have
Do you know if there's another possibility to use icon packs without changing the Launcher?
Best regards,

I'm running CM 10.1 on a tablet and a phone and I'm wondering the same thing.... I'm looking into it and if I find a solution I'll post it here. If you've come up with any solution since this post I'd like to be informed...
Download any icon pack from Play Store and those should work..
