I found out about uccw last night and found a really nice theme thing is I cant get the widgets to fit properly can someone please post good settings so they fill with no spaces on the side or top. Spent all night messing about most themes are optimised for nexus 4. I have both apex and nova pro if that helps

Make your desktop grid as small as possible. Maybe 12 x 12. Thats how i get around it.

The grid size always depends on how the widgets/themes are done. To reduce the screens border have a look in apex settings.
Also have a look at mycolorscreen, they have tutorials.

Got a few questions about the wallpaper on this note. 1. Is there no way to make scrolling wallpaper? 2. Why with 5.3 inches of screen per home can I only use one tiny section of a picture to make the wallpaper?

Download 3D gallery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
or install Quickpic and set wallpaper with it
I don't see how 3d gallery will give me scrollable wallpaper and quickpic gives the same options as the stock wallpaper picker. I appreciate the offers guys, but what I need was when I select an image as my background, I want it to go to the left and right when I swype, not just stay the same image that is constrained in that little box.

You cant use scrollable wp on TW. The best option is to use a Launcher from playstore. i.e.for ICS..Apex, Nova. For GB...Go Launcher, ADW, Launcher Pro.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
Scrollable wallpaper can be added to gb. I have it working on mine. The mods are in apps section

Wallpaper Wizardry rocks! Check the Play store.
Hey, I was wondering how do you add apps to the launcher at the bottom by the app drawer buttons the home screen? I took out messaging and internet by accident and now I don't know how to add it back, thanks

Just drop and drop when you are in home screen, so make sure the apps are on current home screen (I'm pretty sure I don't use TW launcher)

If you are still using the stock launcher, I would highly recommend to change it. You won't have to root just download it of the market. Best launcher for SIII is Nova. Try it, it will let you have 6 icons vertically on the screen and so much more.
Good luck

Mine is 4 x 5 by default.
Yes, your right it is 4x5 but I wasn't taking the bottom row into account bc it was locked to just icons. Thanks for the info as I'll just get a nodded apk for this. Was hoping there would be an easy Configuration setting.
Thanks for the help!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
you can do a 5x5 using nova launcher :good:
Unfortunately neither Nova nor Apex render that nice icon shadow as the Touchwiz launcher does. I know it's a small detail but I like it a lot of and hated it when I lost it. (Using Apex now.)

I use APEX launcher. Check it out on GOOGLE PLAY.
Anyone mind sharing your weather widgets or know a nice wv post here cause the 1 that comes with TW is a embarasing takes up to much ram and rewrites and lags up the launcher. Deactivate it and its parts and your phone is going much snappier.

I use one called "Eye in the sky" which works great for me.
Using BeWeather..it has some great widgets with or without clocks and forecasts. Also nice animations in the app itself:

If this has been posted before, I couldn't find it.
Found his today on modmydroid.net and thought it looked pretty cool. It free in the playstore and very easy to use and customize.
It d/l's as an apk, so you don't even have to go to recovery to install.

Can anyone help me wth making a new tile and where can I find the app drawer on here I do love the launcher
EDIT: Figured out the app drawer but still trying to figure out how to add new tiles
Long press app in drawer. Tap add tile. Long press app on home screen. Tap the pencil icon to customize. You can resize (1st). Then Change out images from your gallery or use launcher icons. Change background color. Or change from center to extrude if you want image to go out to the edge.
