How do I stop the scrolling background on my home screen?
I hate how it jumps when you get to the end pane.
Well, you can flash the stock TouchWiz launcher in Omega Files or take a new modded Touchwiz launcher available here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691957

I got my new tab one month ago and i didn't flash any rom or rooted. does that make me tunning on stock rom ?
and i notice the interface of my tab where when i slide the screen there's this blue glowing box appearing. on top right corner the app drawer button and the + button also has blue border glowing. i really love the interface. Does touchwiz responsible for that or honeycomb itself. i am quite confuse on this, because when i use differnt launcher (ADW launcher EX) i don't see any blue glowing color, and when i add widget. instead of direct preview, i get this text only stating the size of widget. same goes to adding application shortcuts etc..
i love the original interface but it's quite laggy and lack of certain good function. So is that touchwiz or honeycomb feature ? how to make it work on other launcher ?
p/s : how to check which ROM i am running on. my android is 3.1
I'm wondering if there are any launchers out there for ICS 4.0.x that are basically a cross-breed between the ICS launchers (homescreen) and the stock Gingerbread launcher (app drawer).
I'm using a Galaxy S2 with ICS XXLPH by teju4u and am quite enjoying the new ICS looks, the homescreen bit of the launcher (Nova, but as far as I could find out Trebuchet and Apex are pretty much the same) is good too, but the new ICS app drawer is annoying. New apps add icons to the beginning of the drawer, you can't rearrange them, make folders, hide icons (though that's not that important for me), and there's the widget tab which I don't need.
Until now I was using a stock GB 2.3.5 (KI5) and in the app drawer I had the first page reserved for my most commonly used applications, then second was games (5-6 icons only rest of page empty, important!!) and the following pages were for all the random apps that I use occasionally (and the 'junk' folder for apps I don't use at all and can't be bothered to remove, or stuff that I launch from widgets only e.g. calendar).
I know features like this have been requested in Nova and Apex, and at least Nova is working on it now (folders, customisable tabs), but I want to know if anything out there can do it now.
Long story short, any ICS 4.0+ launchers out there with app drawers from (or behaving like) ginger?
EDIT: yes, I can just patch TW launcher back in, and I did that for now. Still, TW is not very customizable so looking for more.
im looking for this laucer too for my sgs2
its kinda annoying not having a folder in appdrawer
Has anyone else noticed the stock launcher gets very slow/laggy when there are a lot of icons on the homescreens?
Try this: Fill one of the home screens completely with shortcuts to various apps, after each app try sliding between screens by dragging your finger across the screen, or try moving the icons around. after about 5 or 6 i find it to get slow, and after completing an entire row the lag is very noticeable.
Put all those icons in a folder and its back to normal speed. Anyone else notice this? are there any fixes for this?
Try apex launcher or nova launcher, adw ex, go launcher hd, go launcher ex, trebuchet launcher.
Stock launcher works well for me. I have Widgets and tons of icons n folders. No lag at all swiping screens and no lag at all with app launcher.
i have no problem with the app launcher just the homescreens have lag when i have too many icons.
You say with the stock launcher you have no lag? what version are you running and how many icons do you have on various different screens?
I have not had this problem before, even when I was using modded TW launcher with disabled scrolling and 4x5 icons layout. Since I upgraded to Omega v27 I now have a problem where the wallpaper flicks left and right when I return to the homescreen. Has anyone else encountered this?
Anyway I can modify the touchwiz launcher on stock for the the appdrawer to be in the middle and have 2 apps on both sides of the dock like in stock JB?
