Hello,
I'm from Iraq, and before I have rooted my Galaxy S III. When updates for Jelly Bean became available I started to update my phone, but I couldn't because it was rooted, anyways; I downloaded the firmware from Internet and installed it through ODIN.
Today, I watched a video on YouTube, I found that the look of desktop of Jelly Bean has changed on Galaxy S IIl. It was like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But my Jelly Bean's desktop is this:
It looks like Ice-Cream Sandwich exactly.
For your certainty, I took a picture of about section in settings:
It's really Jelly Bean as you see. But what is the problem? How can make it like the first photo?
Thanks a lot.
The person that recorder the Youtube video was either on AOSP rom or using custom launcher.
These are stock ICS/JB launchers that replace stock Samsung's TouchWiz:

^Yep!
Get yourself a different launcher and do away with crappy Touch Wizz. It'll be like having a whole new phone immediately. I, myself am currently using Nova Prime, but any of the 3 launcher links posted above will give you the look you are going for

no it is not, unless you got your tab within the last like day and they put touchwiz on it. you would have to have rooted your tab, intalled the rom for touchwiz
Its pre-installed in the Touchwiz rom available here, but not in the stock retail. Whether it'll be in the official Touchwiz update remains to be seen.

And for those that don't know, you can also install Swype on the tab without being rooted and without TW. Just go to the Swype Beta page...
The non-preinstalled version (or beta version) gets updated much more often than preinstalled versions.

Hey is there any working mod for Phone.apk larger caller picture?
I do not want the full screen, because I do not like it. I want such thing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050251
but for SGS II of course. I couldn't find any... really noone modded this yet?
If you wait a month, cm9 (Android Ice cream sandwich) should hopefully be in a good beta if the kernel sources are released by then, and the stock Ice cream sandwich phone screen couldn't have a bigger photo. I am pretty sure that there aren't any larger photo id for gingerbread for the s2. I believe that waiting for ICS will be your only option from now
If I have help please press the thanks button below
This is what the ics phone screen looks like:

}
Yes I see. Well, hope Samsung will speed process up and we get ICS sooner than later.
Frankly this screen of ICS calling is uglier than Gingerbread :O
Well, you helped me in a way, so thx
Anything for ICS? I can't find any Phone.apk modded for ICS 4.03
Seriously, the new ICS Gallery is perfect, why didn't they include it in the official ICS ROMs?
They just left that crappy old GB gallery in there.
In fact, they removed a lot of UI elements from ICS to make it look like GB.
Why? Are they saving all the best stuff for Galaxy S3?

These are AOSP ICS features, what you're seeing is Touchwiz ICS which doesn't include those features, Samsung wants to use Touchwiz as their UI framework so you won't see a lot of AOSP features, the S3 is likely to be Touchwiz also, the only pure AOSP ICS phone is the GNex.
Cause we don't need 2 galleries. The touchwiz one is needed for additional features such as setting lockscreen wallpaper which is why aokp roms include both.
And because what he said above.
get quickpic way better
I was browsing the Play Store and I stumbled on this app, works great on my Xperia S. It looks great on our devices and does a great job of replicating the real lockscreen of jelly bean on my friend's galaxy nexus
you can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.locker
screenshots (from official play store link):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It doesn't work correctly. Lockscreen has short delay from turning off to lockcreen (it means, that if you turn on phone shortly after turning-off, lockscreen doesn't work). Also turning on launches the lockscreen app, not home screen. I do not recommed, even it looks nice.
Works well, good find
Work very well on my Xperia P.
I'm using Holo launcher & Holo Notifier too, look great like ICS.

This JB lockscreen looks nice. If only the shortcut can be customized that will be awesome

What do you mean by convert? There is a different application for clock in JellyBean ROMs.

Yes I am fully aware of that.
But I would like the you ICS versions of some applications like
- clockwidget.apk (com.sonyericsson.advancedwidget.clock)
- SemcCalculator.apk (com.android.calculator2)
- Phonebook.apk (com.sonyericsson.android.socialphonebook)
Usually you would expect that a new software version (like Jelly bean) is backward compatible or downwards compatible with older versions (like ICS). But obviously not in the Android world.
I can install the old apps but they are not working.
So my question is:
how can I modify the apps or the system to get them working in Jelly Bean.
