Is it possible for anyone to create a .zip file for installation of the modified Touchwiz transparent launcher. I have tried to follow the instructions have been unsuccessful. Any help is awesome. I am running clean DJ05 deodexed. Thanks.

Really? All you have to do is move the .apk from the sd card to your /system/app directory with any root capable file manager. Or adb push. Takes less time than it did for me to swype this.

I'm pretty sure there was a .zip file in the thread about the vibrant dock. You can't change the dock for the fascinate launcher. Its a .xml file edit or something like that.
I would like a transparent dock aswell but the vibrant launcher is as close as were gonna most likely.
Would also be nice to have a themed twlauncher as I prefer it over other launchers at this point. :/

I did too but I would rather have the ability to uninstall apps from the launcher and set the home screen to what I want it to be. The Vibrant launcher doesnt allow those things...
Thanks everyone for the input. I will look for the vibrant launcher well.

Will result in touchwiz being extinguished from your tab. Won't be running at the back after you delete it.

Which is the filename of the touchwiz i can delete?
I have adw already installed abd working.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using Tapatalk
If you set another launcher as default and then reboot, it shouldn't run the default launcher anyway.
And the name of the Touchwiz launcher is "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk".
Don't delete it, move it to /sdcard/ so you've got a backup.
You can also just freeze the appa instead of deleting/moving it. Use Titanium Backup or similar to freeze it and then it wont run.
Alternative if you want to remove you can also use SystemApp remover if you cant locate the correct apk.
maybe you can crash something. in P1000L (Brazil) tab, TV app doesn't work without touchwiz...
the phone app will not work without the touchwiz launcher
How to simpy freeze it?cant find its filename in titanium backup!

This replaces your launcher2.apk with a stock launcher2.apk
Works fine for me but install at your own risk. And do a backup first.

I have found out how to turn the toolbar black. To save time/trouble I asked someone if we could use their systemui.apk. I will release a second version with that as an option when I get the ok.
Thanks for this, been using modaco gingerbread launcher on the market but this one has a much faster app drawer.
Also I just unzipped and installed it no need to flash it.
Flashed three times.. no error during install... still only motoblur launcher... I see the file under system/app... any recommendations?

Using root explorer go to /system/app. Then mount r/w. Then rename blurhome2.apk to blurhome2.bak(to be safe) then(this is important) do not leave rootexplorer(you have no launcher currently) find where you have the download for this launch and go to it and click it and install it. That should do the trick.

when i renamed blurhome2.apk to the .bak version I kept getting a FC on the home application repeatedly, and it wouldn't let me back out. I used adb to rename the file back and just installed using the ASOP launcher app. worked like a charm!
It's good to see a piece of stock GB!
Thanks for all the help!

Wouldnt having ADW or GoLauncher enabled at the time stop the force close issue until the stock one is installed? Does Home Switcher recognize it as installed once you get it all done?

When I loaded a Quick Contact widget onto the screen it seemed nothing happened. Then I realized they were invisible. I could long-hold (guessing where they were) and drag them to the recycle bin to delete the invisible icons. Weird, huh? Any recommendations on a cool contact widget?
Also, just an observation.. I was dicking with redoing my screen layout and was in landscape mode.. all of a sudden the launcher crashed and just for a few seconds I could see the motoblur launcher. The stock launcher quickly re-started and was working normally again.
By installing through the apk is it possible this launcher is just an overlay? The OP said it would replace the launcher, but I bet that's only during a CWM flash.
...
Because you couldn't get it to work with cwm I am not sure. I actually replace the file on mine. I don't touch the blur stuff. I always work from a fastboot flash, reset and and fresh root.
New post on OP. Black status bar and such.

Is my d3 a bad egg?
Scrolling through pages is really unsmooth for me. All stock launchers are like that for me. Obviously LP is butter for me but it seems like none of you have this problem...
All non stock launchers have caused issues for me unless you can actually change kernels and other system files. On CM on my droid Inc and inc 2 it was very easy to swap and it didn't cause issues.

I use "Go Launcher" with CM7 along with "Go SMS" and "Go Chat" which you can send free texts, files etc with Go Chat/ SMS. Never had any problems with it
I use touchwiz 4.5 or a full Golauncher environment when I'm on Cm7 but already tried this stock nexus launcher that was working fine as far as I've seen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933517
Regarding all the stuffs included in or removed by the cwm zip I think it's better to extract the apk from it

I've installed the Launcher2.apk but I cant choose it :S It doesn't appear on the list ...
Put it in system/app?
I don't remember very well but if it says "application is not installed" (something like that,t'm french...) when you click on the apk then it has to be put in system/app.
Otherwise it's just that you have to press the big central home button of your phone after install,tick "choose by default" and choose this launcher.
Home switcher a nice app too to easily test launchers.

Hello everybody,
first of all i want to apologize for asking for it. But i definately can not do it myself.
I´m just looking for an .apk theme for stock Optimus UI which replaces the app drawer icon with the stock nexus style one,
cause i don´t like the default ones. That´s eveything i need, all the other desktop icons can be changed via Optimus UI launcher.
So if anyone has the same interest and likes to do something like this i would be more than happy.
Thank you in advance.
Cheers
Daniel
Nova launcher or apex launcher
There is an app in lg smart world by it you can download themes for the stock launcher , made by lg .
I don't remember the name maybe "theme box" or something like that

Are you rooted? If yes, just copy and replace original file via es file explorer or total commander to /system/app
If you're not rooted then you can't install it.

Yeah i know, but unless i am not rooted i can not use widget drawer to place widgets on homescreen. It will be possible when we get jelly update till end of march (i hope/want to believe). But i really favour stock launcher so i think about root and have a try with this custon biz theme.

Well, not entirely true, you can still use the Widget drawer, cept it's going to be the Gingerbread style one. But yes, in order to have a true stock ICS or JB experience I guess we have to wait till LG updates roll out.
If you don't wanna root. I sure don't. Not yet atleast.
