Has anyone found a way to change subj?
still nothing?
Not with TouchWiz.
If this is something really important to you then you need to look at other launchers. Go Launcher lets you add/remove pages, and you can change any of them to be the home page very easily.
There's plenty of other launchers though, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.

It was possible before by editing default.prop. But since the latest update it`s not.
I thought that maybe some curious minds found a new way to do so.. well nwm, not that important.

Hello... Im on the search for a 3d or scrollable or animated sms widget. to give you an idea of what im looking for look at the one on SPB or some of the ones on HTC like rosie6 sms. so far all the ones i find are just a single screen or are part of something else. I want to be able to use it on whatever im runing on my phone... I have a Droid 3 and rooted.
GO SMS has an sms widget that is fairly customizable. Unfortunately, to use it, you'll hafta install and run GO Launcher. Not sure if thats an option for you or not, but still, something to look into, it might fit for you...

That one of the ones I was talking about that you have to use it with Go launcher. Im looking for an actual Widget I can use on anything...
Is it me or has the development slowed down to a crawl. Not many new launchers or other utilities to customize the phones and anything you do find isnt customizable at all and all the new phones are being locked down more and more so its harder to do things with them.

I feel you to an extent. I mean i'm no where near a dev, but i would think with ICS coming out and so many new devices, they've shifted their developing skills else where for the time being? That's the nature of being a developer I guess, you always need to be on top of and tweaking the next big thing to keep the hacking community happy. Not sure if this is the case or not, just my $0.02
try launcher pro plus,fast and has scrollable widgets ,not 3d though
Android pro widgets include a scrolable message widget too.
go sms widget
Go sms widget does not require go launcher
Nice. Its working on it's own. It doesn't even require GO SMS Pro to work.
Hello, sorry for asking this question.
But is it possible to have ADW launcher have the default app drawer or are the launcher and appdrawer tied together. eg you can only have one or the other. The device in question is the motorola xoom wifi. I didn't post this in the xoom forums because its more of a general android question concerning launchers on a tablet then it is a device specific question.
Reason being is because I enjoy having ADW launcher's ability to take up the full screen on my xoom as opposed to have the columns on either side where you cant place app (wasted screen real estate if you ask me, since theirs no need for a tapping area when you can swipe to change screens). But at the same time I very much enjoy the ICS app drawer and being able to see a visual representation of my widgets and what not.
Does anyone know if it is possible to have both the ICS app drawer and a custom launcher? By this I mean to have the custom launcher home screen and the default appdrawer? I have googled but I haven't found an answer Thats why im asking. I don't know enough about android to figure it out on my own, So can you have both your cake and eat it too? Or is the homescreen tied to their respective launchers. Eg you cant have the default app drawer without also using the default homescreen launcher? Or is it possible to mix and match app drawer's with a launcher. my initial feeling is that they're tied together, But considering im sure someone else has wondered this before, I thought I would ask. I hope I explained this well enough. Thank you all in advance for your replies and any help rendered.
-D
Edit; Clarified.
ya i was browsing for the same thing on the market. no luck though.
Hey all,
I have recently installed ADW Launcher EX in order to set my tablet up using the Hubs philosophy. Looks great so far, but the one thing I did like was the favorites shortcut in the status bar on the stock sony launcher. I would like to add it somewhere, but it won't let me add it, probably because it is some kind of hidden system app.
Does anyone know how to add these hidden system apps to homescreens or wherever without need root access or a custom rom?

Without some serious dev work, it looks to me like this is not possible. It seems to be a part of the stock launcher from what I can tell. You might be able to write a non-launchable app that just launches the Favourites, but that would only work if they had any public Intents built-in.
Not too sure, since I'm at work and can't check right now, but thats just my thoughts.
Thanks,
I had thought as much. I actually don't mind the sony stock launcher, just wish I could create shortcuts that can jump to certain screens like in ADW launcher. I'm sure if I rooted, I could find some way to access that applications independently, but I don't really want to go that route with my tablet. My phone was enough lol
On TouchWiz, I have a choice of Customizable grid, Alphabetical grid, or Alphabetical list. I use Customizable grid so I could arrange my apps like I did back then on iOS.
I am rooted and have Xposed installed but I can't seem to find a launcher or tweek to do the job. I plan to flash Cyanogenmod on my S2 soon but unfortunately the lack of this feature is holding me back.

Not sure where you have been looking but there are dozens of launchers that have this capability. I'd venture to say that the TW launcher is one of the least customizable options.
http://android.appstorm.net/roundup...rn-android-launchers-homescreen-replacements/
The majority of these have that option.

I tried Nova. It uses folders and tabs, but not actually arranging the icons myself. It still uses the plain alphabetical order

Apex: Allows rearranging but each change affects the other pages. It does not allow pages to be customized individually.
ADW: None
Holo: Same as Nova
Lightning: Hard and inconsistent.
Note: Not to be confused with the Home screens.
I can't seem to find a launcher to make the app drawer act like TouchWiz home/iOS
I understand now. Yea, I guess it's just mostly a Touchwiz thing. I even tried a knock off Galaxy launcher and it didn't even have the function. I was just confused with the comparison to iOS since they don't even have an app drawer. You're just moving icons around on the home screen which is pretty standard for almost any Android launcher.

have you tried next launcher
i don't know its contain this view but try it
Nah, Go Launcher and Next Launcher do offer the ability to move the apps around, but just like Apex, it affects the other pages. OP is looking for not only customized sorting, but also customized per page. So if they want 12 apps on the first page, and 10 on the next and 20 on the 3rd, etc.

Exactly :good:
Finally found one that does what you are looking for:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buzzpia.aqua.launcher
I've used it before, just forgot about that little feature as it's not really that desirable to me. It's quite a different kind of launcher, so you might or might not like the other features, but you have to take the good with the bad.
What I was looking for...and more!

I guess since JB came out TW Launcher edits are more difficult. Found a few threads where people were trying to do something similar but couldn't figure it out. It's possible to edit the grid layout, removing the dock label, and whether or not you want wallpaper scrolling, but couldn't find much on the other stuff. Probably would need a lot of smali code editing.
Very curious: why so adamant about sticking with TW? It's really not that special and besides the TW widgets, it's easy to replicate and typically be better at all the other stuff. It's not like it's more smooth or has many (any?) really special features than one of a dozen other good replacements don't have...
