As far as I know, it is not possible. With the stock launcher you're stuck with a 5x5 grid. If you want to be able to change it, you might want to consider using a 3rd party launcher such as Nova or Apex.

Yeah...I just love the stock launcher...huge difference in battery life using stock as well

Well there is a process where in you copy the lghome.apk to your desktop and then decompile it and use apktools to change values I read it somewhere but can't remember but yes u can do it.

you can use desktop visualizer or you can open every apk to change out the icon in each ones res/drawable-hdpi and zip it back up using 7zip(make sure you use normal and you have apk at the end and not zip)
Thanks! Will give it a try

I think hes trying to say that he wants a launcher that hides the screen number indicator.
Like your clock widget.
What's it called?

Either Apex or Nova. I use them before, but don't remember which one.
That's a feature of most launchers. I'm using go launcher and can hide them. I don't think you can do it in the TW launcher though.

Launcher app

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!

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.

Launcher8

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.
