Colored task bar and themes.

I'd just like to begin by apologizing for my noob-ness. Is the 2.2 Froyo with Sense ROM able to be
themed at all? I was wondering because I like the Sense UI and all, but it just doesn't feel like 2.2 for some reason. This also makes me question switching to CM6... Thanks to any answers given.

Get ADW launcher and some Adw themes from the market. Both are free.
Hope that helps.

there are skins available for sense, but none of them look like the standard aosp android.
if you want the aosp android look, i would definitely recommend flashing to CM7, which is 2.3 based.

Ah, okay thanks. I know its off topic, but since CM7 was brought up, how stable is the ROM? Ik its still in relatively early stages, but how is it problem-wise? I've been debating between my current 2.2 w/ sense vs. CM7.

It's pretty stable, if using the latest nightly. The RC1 has its issues.

Everything you need to work works. Its a stable fully functional rom for daily use. I highly recommend the latest nightly. And the theme Chooser built into the rom along with either adw (comes with the rom) or launcherpro (free in market) make it very customizable. in the visual department.

Touchwiz 4 for Samsung Epic 4g!

***PLEASE NOT I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED
DEVICES OR ANY ERRORS CAUSED BY FLASHING THIS
APP***​
Do you want TW4 on your Samsung
Epic? Yes you do. Believe me. Ever since I got my first
TouchWiz-powered device, I really hated it, and found myself
using other 3rd party launchers instead. But ever since I
upgraded to a rom that came with TW4, I immediatley found my
new launcher. It was love at first site. I've worked very hard to get
TW4 for all Epic 4g owners.
To install this amazing launcher, first
make sure you are rooted/deodexed. (but who isn't nowadays??)
Next, make sure you are on Clockwork v3.1.0.1 or higher. Wipe
cache and delvic cache 3 times. Don't wipe data unless you want
all your stuff to be gone (TW4 isn't worth THAT much) install the
.zip from your SD card, reboot your epic, and enjoy.​

Hasn't this been out for a while now or is this something different

So you basically stole this from someone else's work?
Congratulations. We've had TW4 already =)

I never flash tw4, I take the two apks, and place them in system/app, and remove the original tw, fix permissions in cwm, reboot
Idk if this is the same as the OP, but this is the most stable version I have found. So naturally, I saved it to my dropbox lol

I never used it because it doesn't scale right. At least at the resolution I'm at.
But way to flame right off the bat y'all. First post, let alone first thread. He's only been a member since the 19th.
Thank you for the thought! I did the same thing with MIUI music a few months ago.
If anything we should dog on you for not using the search function first.
Haha welcome to the forums!
EDIT: Actually now I'm surprised. You are rooted and on a custom ROM. You even put up a disclaimer! Experience...troll? Nah. Maybe you've been doing this for a long time? And just now made an account? TELLL MEEEE WHO YOU AREEEEEE?!?!?!

All the previous releases of TW4 for the epic never worked. If this is another attempt i welcome it, cuz it seems as everyone else gave up chasing the dream. I'll give it a shot.

They worked just fine, for me atleast. Others did have problems however. If this is yor work, and not stolen, while not to my taste, thanks for TW4.

I have been using Froggers version for over a month. For those that said it was buggy and they would get fc or lockups I had the same thing until EG22 and EH06. Since EG22 and EH06 came out it has been perfect. Not a single issue.

This seems pretty stable... However, i wiped the cache 3 times and flashed, nothing... So i extracted the apk, renamed it and replaced it using root explorer. Once again, the Program Monitor widget doesn't work, but it a small price to pay... Kudos!

I was using TW4.5 on EG22, then i tried the maddog TW4 theme addon, nothing but freezes.

Too lazy to find the thread myself, but if you look in Samsung Galazy I9000 themes & apps forum you will find a heavily modified touch wiz 4.5. I have been using that.
It looks kind wonky in landscape, but it works pretty good. Not the smoothest launcher out there, but still looks nice.

Good looks I just flashed
this over eh17 its better than the old touch wiz I like how you can go from screen to screen just like the galaxy s2 Epic touch its great I seen it on the s2 video yesterday now my epic can do the same thing I was wondering if someone could take that feature& put it on a ROM or theme?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

TW4 always seems good at first, but then it started giving me reboots, freezes, etc. (that was on EG22, hopefully EH17 won't have the problem)
As great as it is, I don't think it's worth it until we get TW4 widgets. Now that would be awesome.

I already have the tw4 plus widgets on eg22

Replacing stock home with golauncher???

Hi guys I didn't see anything about this yet in the forums so I was wondering ... since I have my phone rooted I can uninstall the unwanted apps ....

I need any pros and cons you guys can come up with ....so far I haven't been too successful with roms ... thanks

It's definitely worth switching in my opinion there's absolutely no down side, the stock launcher sucks and most others are customizable. Go launchers pretty good, I like adw better but it's all about what you prefer. Be careful if deleting stock apps they can be trouble if they're not deodexed.

I've tried a ton of launchers, if you want one that's quick and light on your battery i'd go with zeam launcher. Adw is more customizable and still very fast, go launcher felt a little slower to me but still a good option, launcher pro is okay but in my opinion slower than the others. You should try a few out until you find one that works for you...

+1 for Zeam!
I've tried dozens including Go but I always, always come back to Zeam. I like mine clean and fast and Zeam delivers.
If you want themes then definitely give Go a shot. TONS of devs on that one. And I wouldn't worry about battery. I keep Go installed so I can use Go Locker and have never had issues. /t

well, depends on what you like, if you like alot of customization, tranquil one would be your choice, if you like stock then there are a couple good ones here, hell they are all good as far as sense roms, the cm roms are buggy. eclipticone is a good choice too. team nocturnal has 2 good roms as well or 3, i like the black sheep rom.

ViperROM is very stable, fast, and just plain good. You can download it from GooManager and flash it without using your PC. It is a Sense ROM. I would highly recommend it.

I agree, I can't get into all the inverted blacked out apps either. But if you want a stock themed rom I'm running "Stock with goodies" and I'd also recommend "OMJs Rom" both are great.

They are both great, and both have the enable back button for menu, EQS toggles in the pulldown shade and removed the power saver icon from the pulldown. Those are the 3 main reasons I wanted to root my phone.

Does a Custom Launcher Sit on top of Stock Launcher?

Alright, completely random question. When you use a custom launcher, is the stock launcher still running in the background?

I'm running nova launcher prime as default right meow. I have a button on my homescreen to take me to sense, which is fully customized with widgets and such, for when I wanna look through blink feed or whatever sense only toggles.
I'm not sure if they both run simultaneously though.
