figured id post some of the universal/unthemed mods i make as i create my rom..
all of these are made with the shipped VRALJB apps/framework this is not taking other apps from different phones these are fresh mods..
u will have to use a root explorer and move these to /system/app or /system/framework and then delete the .odex version of the file(temporary til we get recovery)
first up is 5x4 launcher
download: http://myandroidfiles.com/beanstown106/i605/vraljb/mods/SecLauncher2.apk
move to /system/app and then delete SecLauncher2.odex
more will follow as they are made

Is there a way to revert if you didnt save the launcher that was overwritten?

I'm really excited about this, but i'm not sure if it's going to work. After i moved it to the system/app folder and removed the .odex version, when i press the home button, only my launchers from the market are shown as options. the stock browser is completely gone. is that normal? does it need a reboot?

Thank you, but the problem was actually me being a moron and thinking using es file explorer with root access turned on would work the same as root explorer. It set up the new launcher with the wrong access permissions. i restored my backup of the original launcher with TiBU and tried it again with root explorer and now it works perfectly! Thanks to the OP for creating this great launcher mod, and you for your help!

LOL no. The Dropbox mods got deleted because you were essentially taking advantage of a paid benefit. You only receive the space if you bought the device or paid for it legally.
This is just a launcher from the Gs3. I'm assuming it's under the Apache license like the rest of Android. It's not a form of taking advantage or warez.

This is not my work...these files are from the international note2 & gs3 which are both exynos devices. I tested the apks listed below and they work just fine on the I605 Note 2. If you are running 240dpi you will notice some of the apps are not sized correctly...this mod will fix that. Must be flashed in CWM recovery! Not all of the apk's in the thread links are compatible...MAKE A BACKUP Before Flashing!
LINK(*do not use the flashbar.apk or launcher.apk they do not play nice from this link)
LINK2
*Here are the 240 dpi apk's for folks who do not have a custom recovery! You must push this to the system/app folder..Rename the original your replacing .bak that way its easy to restore simply by removing the .bak extension.
Calculator.apk
Camera.apk
Clock.apk
Mutliwindow_Flashbar.apk(this will need to be renamed .apk before pushing to system/app)
Email.apk
Exchange.apk
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, TouchWiz launcher force closes for me. Stock deodexed.
Call me crazy, but I actually prefer the TW launcher to others. I'll get over it for now, though. The keyboard is really the only thing that was holding me back from 240. I love the handwriting recognition.

i ran 240 on beans 3 last night, everything was groovy except the multi window sidebar, Calculator and Camera (which there are fixes for in this OP). Also, clock FC's in 240 mode and the AOSP lock screen is off center. Lockscreen is fine because we can just use TW lockscreen in the meantime, but for me having to use alarms i like the factory clock vs using an alarm from the play store. Hopefully we can get some 4.1.1 fixes for the ones mentioned! no rush though

Hey pal! Simply install the APK like you would any other downloaded application. You don't have to move a thing to /system/app. Let me know if that works for you.
Hey guys, I thought I would share this MOD with everyone here on the AT&T forum. I came over to AT&T from Verizon and I had the S4 while I was there. Anyhow, there was a ROM named Hyperdrive and the TW launcher performance was unmatched.
A big thanks to @sbreen94 who is the Verizon dev who hacked this launcher for his ROM, Hyperdrive. I received full permission from him to post this MOD.
This is the stock TW 4x4 launcher (with infinite scroll) which he hacked for insane speed, and it's very noticeable. Just try it and you will agree. This should work on any TW ROM. I have used it on AT&T, International and T-Mobile based ROM's that I've flashed since I've been on AT&T with no problems at all. Be sure to go over to sbreen94's Hyperdrive ROM thread to thank him if you like this.
This hacked launcher is based on Android 4.2.2 JB TW I545VRUAMDK, Verizon S4 firmware. Please note that after you do this, some widgets may disappear. You will have to simply re-add them.
**UPDATE 8-14** I have added the AT&T hacked launcher based on MF3 which was hacked by sbreen94 to #1 of install instructions.
Install Instructions:
1. Download THIS (or THIS which is the AT&T hacked launcher based on MF3)
2. Make a Nandroid backup just in case you bork something during this process
3. Use Root Explorer or your favorite root file explorer and navigate to ROOT>system>app and find SecLauncher3.apk (depending on the ROM, it can also be named Launcher.apk, etc)
4. To be safe, rename SecLauncher3.apk to SecLauncher3.apk.bak (that will essentially kill the file, but make it revivable by removing .bak from the file name if anything goes wrong or if you want to go back to the former launcher)
5. Move or copy over the hacked SecLauncher3.apk that you downloaded from step #1 into your ROOT>system>app folder
6. Change permissions of the hacked SecLauncher3.apk that you downloaded from step #1 to rw-r--r--
7. Reboot & profit
**DISCLAIMER** Neither sbreen94 or I are responsible for any damage that you cause to your phone during this process or if your dog eats your phone and makes it irreplacable.
Enjoy! :good:
Awesome! I've got Hyperdrive on my Note 10.1. This hack is really nice! D/l-ing now!

If you've applied the widget, then you should see MotLauncher2 and launcher2 in the priv app folder. To undo it, add .bak to MotLauncher2 and set the permissions on Launcher2 to Rw-r-r
