I heard the sgs2 got a leaked touchwiz ics rom. I was wondering if anybody can pull the touchwiz launcher apk from system/app and post it. I have the sgs2 framework (I think) or a possible port of tw4? Thanks bros

and fyi this is not touchwiz 5
The files are ODIN flashable and when I put them into Zip's i dont find anything.
And excuse me then, i was mistaken. I thought it was tw 5
TW5 will be saved for the next top end Samsung android phone most likely SGS3 if it's not a Tizen phone.

thought i saw some peeps in the captivate forum have something like that going on. might want to check over there.
yes it is possible and one of the early custom roms (released in OCT) had it if I remember correctly I think by Eugene
Could someone port it off of that rom or give me the link for the apk of the launcher?

Yes it is.

With time I'd imagine alot of the gs2 stuff will start to be compatible with our phones. Just wait out a bit longer and see how everything plays out.
It's not the lockscreen but theirs the modded launcher in the development section. Check that out.

Theirs one under Private Stock on the second post. It also includes icons so make sure you read first to insure compatibility with your ROM.
Theirs also one on the i9k theme section, but theirs force closes on me personally.

This would be great!
I would like to see someone porting the Original Launcher2 from Galaxy Nexus or ICS SDK System dump to work with Android 2.3. I hope this is possible becouse the GB launcher also was portet to Froyo.
AND sorry Team Syndicate but I dont like the clone ICS Launcher.

How would we even use that keyboard just install latinime.apk to system/app?
Flashing the zip didnt change anything for me, then i tried to put the files manually to system/ app and system/lib and now i only get force close oin android keyboard.
I have an Xperia Play and I am on Cyanogenmod7 by FreeXperia.
But anyway, i think the launcher would be much cooler.

And you have to change the permissions using root explorer from read only to write... Search in this forum itself. There is a thread on this ...

Rooted using stock Android 4.1.1
I like everything about Touchwiz other than the grid size. I want 5 columns of icons instead of 4. I know some roms can do this, I found one, but it looked nothing like the stock touchwiz I have now (looked like my Nexus 7 tablet)
I know I can use Nova or Apex and have in the past, but there's things about them I don't care for. I've searched threads, but it took me 2 days to get my phone back to this state and I don't want to mess it up again.
Can anyone advise me what rom I should use that is closest to the stock one I have now, that will allow me to show 5 columns of icons?
try wanamlite

Can someone please help me to figure out how to install a 5X6 or 5X5 TW Launcher on my Note? I've downloaded every SecLauncher2 for android and I've used root explorer to push them all thru system/apps, changed permissions etc. Nothing works on my end. It all force closes. I'm running AOCP 4.6. Is there something I'm missing? The other launchers work fine but I prefer TW Launcher. I've replaced the stock launcher and and when I reboot the phone, Touchwiz unfortunately stops not allowing me to access it. Any help would be appreciated. If even be willing to try a rom with that launcher already included. I'm desperate..lol

I do believe that there lib and framewrok files that you need also. It would have to be a modified launcher for sure to work on AOCP. Which ones have you tried already?
This is one the mods here. I'll send some others. I'm new to this so I'm sure I'm missing something.

well the link you sent was for the sprint note 2 but according to your signature you have the ATT note 1. I suggest you take a look in this section here and you may find exactly what you are looking for and the first post of the threads will have instructions on what you need to do to get it to work http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1497
I'll start there. Thank you much kind sir. I'll report back.

it can be an easy mistake to make when searching. If you stick to the device forum though you will have better luck at finding what you need.

Just install a new rom because obviously this one is not too stable on your phone. Or maybe factory reset your phone. Pull the battery out while it is on. Might help a little. If I helped, thank me.

First, the TouchWiz Launcher is a part of the TouchWiz framework of Samsung's semi-fork of Android. So getting a TouchWiz Launcher to work would mean running a stock based Samsung ROM. FlappJaxx's FJ-Build 12, Novena or BlackStar, for example, would be able to use the TouchWiz launcher because they are all based off the 4.0.4 Official TouchWiz ROM. It won't work on AOCP, because it is based of AOSP with CM and AOKP features.
Second, there is a work around to having the TouchWiz look on your phone while using AOCP 4.6. Download a Android stock based launcher; I prefer APEX, but I believe it will work with NOVA as well. While searching for the launcher in the Play Store, you can also go ahead and search for themes. Apex TouchWiz will more than likely yield the fastest result. Load the launcher up, go into settings and hit theme and then select TouchWiz and customize it from there. You will now have the look and "feel" of the TW Launcher without having constant foreclosures whenever you try to use it.

What you are attempting is difficult at best...
Touch wiz launchers are coded to rely on their dedicated framework found in Samsung TW roms.
The only method I'm aware of, to use the launcher, is by using the roms that include it.
There are several TW roms available, and they can be easily stripped down to a lean and effective build by simply using your favorite root explorer app.
Dumping the bloat is already done for you when using the Canadian versions of the TW build.
You can also use the N7005 builds we have too.
See the super everything thread in the general section, and I'm sure you will find a rom to suit your liking.
Read the threads carefully, as they include important information.
Enjoy, and happy flashing ....g
