Stock Launcher for the Vibrant that you can Fully Remove Twiz Launcher permanently

Due to Samsung Permission set on there shared uid, we have came into a problem on the Stock Vibrant ROM that we can't remove Twiz Launcher without having Force Close issue's.
This is for Stock user's with root that wish to remove the Twiz Launcher..
File attached..
btw, I love the Wallpaper with this one..

anyone give this one a try? I'm willing to do it when I get home.

Gonna give it a go will post back.
Edit: Its hanging on install for me anyone else?

What's the difference between installing this, or a different replacement launcher such as ADW or Launcher Pro?

you can uninstall the Touchwiz launcher with this one using Titanium and you won't get Force Close errors

Can some one plz post a screen shot of this launcher?

same for me
EDIT: ohhh apk inside, duh.. hhaha

Nvm just read the post above me...... Had no idea this had an apk inside the zip.

Why would I care about uninstalling the twiz launcher? I never see it since I installed ADW from the market.. A far as I an concerned, it is gone.

It runs faster.

How? The twiz launcher is not running on my phone. Task manager confirms that. So how could it be faster?

Well answer me this. Why do you delete blote ware? Is it to save memorie? That would be why you want to run this app. If you delete touch wiz it will free up space. Hence telephone runs faster.

You do not install the launcher.. It will never work try to do adb install, you have to push it into /system/app.

[Q] Restore HTC Launcher?

Hi there Folks!
I'm running EspressoEnergy mod for my Hero by PMGRANDS. Awesome ROM!
I'm wondering if there's an easy way to switch the launcher (not sure if this is the right word.. the bottom bar that has phone, applications, and add (+) ) back to the original one provided by HTC?
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Yep, you're correct on the terminology! You're well on your way!
And that's a great question. I would like to know that too.

search the market. I use ADW EX but Zeam is great too. there is an app that will switch them or press home with 2 or more launchers and it will bring up a selector. Sorry I misread the question You need an HTC based Rom to get the launcher back.

He's on sense based Rom

(No Longer Available Been Contacted By Swype)

Sorry guys, but I've been contacted by Swype and they've asked me to take it down, which I can wholeheartedly respect. They've said that they would release a beta version of it later this week to the registered testers. So I formally am going to take it down and request for the thread to be closed. I hope I was of some help.

Thweet.
Figure it will work on CM7?

Won't this not work if you have a rom with 8-lock (or ACS, or anything that changes th carrier pulldown)? And what's so special about Nexus S's swype?

No? I'm running unnamed 1.4 and Sculpted v2 with custom carrier and not a problem at all. 2 hours for me so far.
It allows gestures to open Twitter Facebook Google Maps, as well as copy, paste, cut, select all. It's just unique.

Alright...u said it was a carrier check not device and I think I remember some sprint apps not working if you changed the pulldown text. So it works? I'm gonna try it out

Yeah as in the installer. It works for devices legitimately on sprint, but it could work on other carriers perhaps. I can't test it myself.

Well, I followed theduce and just installed the apk from Astro and it works perfect so far and looks much better. Maybe its because I didn't have a Swype on my phone before. Does changing permissions enable more features?

Yeah I think the OP's method enables the gestures because when I try to open google maps (using the gestures) (<edit: lol) the keyboard just closes(not a force close) I guess the lib edit give it the gestures update
Edit: I successfully ported the themeing from VIPERrom's swype sol to this one

Tried it, awesome. What are th gestures? This made my main keyboard

I can confirm this is working fine on non-Sprint devices - Using a Galaxy S II in New Zealand. Thanks much for the upload and tutorial, I have native Swype and am a beta tester, but this version worth the latest features and elegant theme is delightful.

Mi locker (MIUI rom has an app for its lockscreen)

If you are using android 2.3 you should download this app that allows to customise your rom lockscreen.

When you select a lock theme there is an option below to include the wallpaper or not. You can unselect it if you want your default homescreen wallpaper.

Also note thats its only hdpi. Can someone port it to mdpi? I wonder why miui make it to hdpi devices knowing most hdpi device can use miui not with mdpi devices.

That's way cool. I can't thank you enough for this. Been missing these ever since I moved to CM7 (damn MIUI kept corrupting my sd during restarts)

Does it support widgets and apps on lockscreen?

Some themes work on my mdpi phone- the very first one and the wp7 default ones work... trying to find others now.

I can't seem to get any of the themes from the MIUI lockscreen thread on here to work, just goes to homescreen with a notification bar which doesn't work.
Anyone else had better luck?

Not much working mdpi themes
Too bad

Nova Launcher on Xoom w/ ICS?

Now that ICS has come to the Xoom, has anyone tried installing Nova Launcher on it? Any issues to be aware of before trying it?
I really like it on my GNex and want to use it for both devices, if possible.

I think you're kinda wrong, at least for Nova. If you look in the settings for Nova, there are settings for a Dock. And when shown on other devices (Galaxy Nexus from what I've seen) there is a dock.

their is a dock just play round with it, will appear

Beta 13
Home screen transition animations => stack
Starts messing up the ability to use icons on the screen... clicking on icons makes the launcher think you are trying to turn pages...
"cube" works well...
Great launcher... looking forward to tablet specific and "pro" options...

Didn't work for me!!(nova)

I had a few minor problems with mine when I tried on cm9 it was like the apps became part of the background and would not move but I deleted and re installed without an issue. I prefer the stock cm9 just fine I only run it at 1.2 compared to the usual 1.5 its so smooth.
