Touchwiz Home Screen Grid Mod? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I can't seem to find a mod that will increase the rows or columns on the home screen. Does anyone know where I can find this mod?
Thanks in advance!

I know in the Jellybomb thread Josh has mods that will do exactly that. I just am not sure if they work for all roms.

Just scroll down to the 2nd post under downloads. I would definitely Nandroid first before trying any mods. Good luck!!
It is under Note3, Mods, Launchers!

I use the 4x5_5x6_2x3 mod from this thread with Bonsai and it works perfectly for me.

you can edit those fields to change the number of icons using integers.xml
then dimens.xml changes the actual size of each icon.
probably will have to mess around a bit to get values that look best for you.
maybe that helps someone.

I am sure that MJcollom's way will be more complete but for a simpler method, the 5x5 launcher mod you are using has scrolling wallpaper. Play around with some different wallpapers and be careful where you crop them and you will be ok.

That was just some info for anyone feeling adventurous.
I'm sure everyone really appreciates knowing they don't have to do it manually.

Hi all, I have a galaxy s2 and am working on themes for ICS. I just can't figure out how to make the notification pull down bar semi-transparent. Can someone please help me out or point me in the direction of a tutorial?

I wasn't sure if it involved the same process as gingerbread. I've tried editing the PNG in the framework-res.apk and making it a semi transparent image but once flashed, the status bar is just the same as always. Do I need to edit an XML file? Thank you for your reply

The pull down is not in the framework Res. Its in the systemui apk. It can also be done by editing the xmls for status bar expanded

[MOD] toggle color

decompile com.htc.resources.apk
go to: res\values\colors and edit the first line with the color of your choice

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

Thanks to jeffsanace and eg1122 for the help with getting the apktool working

You should do a bunch of colors and make them flashable on any rom.

I will take RED toggles please, thank you!!!!
If you guys use VillainTheme System (you can just gank the template from my theme in my signature) once you recompile the apk, pull the XML file you edited, place it in the right folder within vrtheme (com.htc.resources.apk/res/values/) and it will work on any ROM by only overwriting that specific XML file.
OP, if you can give me a hand with something: I can recompile com.htc.resources with no errors and all, but hte ENTIRE values folder are missing from my newly compiled APK, even if I make no changes. I assume that has something to do with my set up but I tried resetting up my apktools folder a thousand times. Any insight?
When will you guys learn to use the search button? Seriously, learn to use it and help yourself out. The solution to your apk compiling issues was solved by this thread in May.
To the OP: It is always proper etiquette to thank your source.
FYI to everyone else: multiply color variable changes A LOT more than just the toggles. Use PIN lock for one example and notice what I mean.

Way to read.
I made it CLEAR that I'm not having any compile issues, I'm just missing the values folder when I DO compile. No errors. No nothing. Know why? BECAUSE I FOLLOWED THAT SAME EXACT GUIDE.

[Solved] on screen navigation bar added to stock touchwiz ?

i prefer to use on-screen softkey button (navigation bar) home/multitask/back than orignal hardkey ones.
Anyone know there is an existed mod to achieve it ?
[Solved]
Just root, then put this in the build.prop this line:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Reboot the phone, now you can have a navigation bar on the screen. Have fun.
Is there a way to put the back button on the left? I'm used to it being on the left.

You need to recompile it and change the value of dimens.xml inside framework1\res\values\
Why din.t you use button savior app? It works for root/nonroot, with a great ui and customization

[Q] How do i edit StatusBar Clock?

How do you edit the Status bar clock color in SystemUI.apk properly? i have tried a couple of Instructions including Adding a line in "Status_bar.xml" with a color code but it will just keep crashing. so what is it that i need to edit properly? is it Styles.xml, Status_bar.xml, both..?? and what type of Hex code does Android require?

Decompile systemui.apk
Open res/values/styles.xml
find this line:
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">
Edit this line:
<item name="android:textColor">xxxxxxxxx</item>
replace the X with a hex color code of your choice.

Not sure if it was right or not, can't see the styles.xml without the resources.arsc. Since you are editing the styles.xml, you do need to delete resources.arsc from the keep folder. It should rebuild it for you in the final apk.

have it, using it/tried it and I feel like I'm getting close. K, I did my edits and recompiled with VTS and then I created a flashable zip, flashed it, wiped cache and dalvik just to be safe. It booted and I DIDNT get any crashes or force closes but no status bar. I checked in root explorer and the icon shows up and permissions are set to RW-R-R. Hmmm .
I appreciate yalls help btw

Good day.

Just noticed your using the xblast app didn't see that before, don't know how that works.
You can decompile the SystemUI.apk change the two xml files at the locations indicated previously then compile the apk and install on your phone easiest way is to use vrtheming and just flash the changes you made through recovery.
You would need to understand deconpling and compiling of apk's and theming.
