Modded GS2 TouchWiz 4 Launcher by Fr4gg0r.

Fr4gg0r from the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 forums has modded the TW4 launcher for other roms, testing actually works nicely for our phone and Android 2.2+ I would assume.
So if you have wanted to try Samsung's launcher TouchWiz4 on the Galaxy S2 here's your chance found here plus photos and updates:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
Has some very nice surprising features if not a tad iphone like in some ways, extremely smooth - it's the smoothest launcher I've has seen yet besting even LauncherPro.
All credit goes to Fr4gg0r for his work.
Easy way to install is thru CWM, install from zip, select zip to install. It wont copy over any files, dependency is libglcanvas.so found in the zip, if you have an error make sure this was copied to system/lib folder.

Really neat launcher with a lot of features.

TW 3.0 - TW 4.0 is a good Launcher "but" uses a huge RAM also resources
still best uses Launcher Pro or Go Launcher
i used Arc Launcher on O 2X and it's smooth also have a nice effects on transparant
"i'll try it on O 2X now " report next

Yeah I've also been using the arc launcher, really like the effects and features/skin of the 1.1 modded version.
TW4 is not to bad for a different style tho.

@somemadcaaant
haven't try it yet have you tried it ??? Timescape work on LG O2X ???
i used 2x Transparant Arc Launcher so i got fully transparant on status bar, pulldown menu, app drawer but i got glitch on noticon thread i have report to him
@ironman159
try to install via ADB make backup first
@ossy1337
make backup on libcanvas on system before applying this theme, because SGS or SGSII have different libcanvas on it so before applying this theme make backup
i have try and the result is "0" i don't know fr4gg0r port it from Froyo 2.2 or Gingerbread 2.3 themes, because the lib on TW so fuzzy

@ junky4rd
Nah mate to be honest Timescape doesn't interest me, transparent ARC launcher looks good tho ill have to try that.

Ported Samsung Touchwiz ClockPackage.apk v2.4 working on ICS and JB

TouchWiz Stock Clock app
***New Update 22th September 2012***
This is a ported touchwiz clock from the Samsung stock roms. It is tested and working on ICS roms and most Jelly Bean roms. This app has been tested in 240dpi (as it is designed for) and 210dpi, tested in English and French. Any graphical problems you might experience are a direct result to changing the dpi, I will not be accepting requests to change the visual layout of the app because as it is it is completely stock and working perfectly for 240dpi (the intended dpi for this phone)
This app is fully functional except for;
1. the map for the world clock (the world clock is working thought)
2. the popup notification notification that tells you your alarm will go off in X hours and X minutes
3. the color of what you have selected in the snooze options (you will be able to see what is selected in the main alarm screen
apart from these minor details everything else is working. Please do not post to tell me about these things, I already know.
I have added languages from all app versions that I could get my hands on. All the usual languages are included, I have recently included Hebrew and Arabic? as requested. If your language is not supported please tell me, and if possible send me a clockpackage.apk from a stock rom with your language (one that you are sure your language is included in)
This clock app is SGS3 themed where possible. See screenshots below.
I have also included a v2.4 +extras zip, this includes the Samsung digital clock widget (SGS3 themed), the Samsung Accuweather widget with transparent background, the Samsung memo app, and ThinkFree Office app.
If you dont want these extras please use the other zip - v2.4
If I have helped you at all, please hit the thanks button
or feel free to buy me a beer / donate
Please test it before you use it!
I will not be held responsible for people who wake up late and lose their job, or miss a flight, etc.
I wont be held responsible for people bricking their phones by doing dumb stuff, just follow the instructions.
Instructions
Copy to zip file to phone SDcard, reboot into CWM and flash, reboot, enjoy
If you are using a previous version of this clock apk please --> backup and delete the old file (HybridTWClock******.apk) from your /system/app folder and then install the new zip in CWM
If you are using CM9 or CM10 or a rom that already has a clock app (deskclock.apk), please note that you do not need to delete the existing clock app for this one to work, - but if you do delete the existing deskclock.apk this one will still work as a stand alone clock

Ok, so you mean it didn't work then?
What about if you push the files across manually? (with root explorer or super manager or something)

Cool,
no there's no widget with this app, its just the stock clock from i9000, you might be able to try the 'digitalclock.apk' widget which comes with stock sgs2
http://www.mediafire.com/?b41y76589gw8zv6
I'm not sure if it will work though, I think it needs to be ported too..
I don't use that though, I prefer beautiful widget's superclock, it's the same but with the weather in the same space (same size widget)

Oww...and it looks like crap in landscape. ... but its nice that it has the timer. I use it sometimes in the kitchen. Hehe. You guys know other ported cool apps ?

These are all touchwiz apps ported for cm7/9. If you want any of them, you can either ask me to put them in flashable zips, or...
do it yourself by placing that apk in my flashable zip in the OP

Hey, sorry I haven't been back to this post for a while...
I've updated the OP with a new version which fixed the graphical problems of the previous versions, I've also added languages and other things. I have also included a ported version of the Samsung Galaxy 'My Files' app, this will let you choose your own mp3 or other sounds files for alarm tones.
Can someone please test it for me? as I don't have a Nexus S..
Thanks

for the extras pack, you will need to make sure that you have enough space on the phone too, I am using cm10 and I had to delete some stuff to make space, I deleted the trebuchet launcher and the latinIME keyboard, as I use apex launcher and swype keyboard which take up much less space, that way I was able to free up some more space

Can you see them in the /system/app folder?
Are they the right size files? I mean the same size files as you see in the zip?
If that is the case maybe they aren't working on the Nexus S, I can't see why not though, it is basically the same phone as the i9000 and the touchwiz dependencies are removed too

Yes, it should work on any phone.
If the CWM zip file doesn't work for you you can install the files manually to where they need to be in the /system/app and /system/media folders and then fix permissions and reboot.
However the screen layout is setup for 240dpi phones, I am running it on my i9000 under 210dpi and it works fine too. Let me know how it goes?

Great rom..its really quick and light on resources. Iam nt a huge fan of LP so i removed it and installed holo launcher instead. Works great.
2 things i noticed..
1. There is no way to change the wallpaper of the lockscreen.
2. Many of the default audio sounds are missing. Were they removed intentionally?

audio sounds hd been removed by me in simplicity. So it wil nt b in dis rom as well.

Flashed without any problems, but I´m facing network problems. My ace is S5830M, firmware WHLA1 I know it doesn´t matter since rom are compatible with every firmware, but any idea on why i cant connect to network.
Edit.
Fixed, just need to stop data pack for a moment and it´ll catch the network. After that just restart data packs.

The CWM Backup/Restore feature works. You just shouldn't restore a backup made before you install the ROM with permanent CWM. Because It will restore the CWM and it wont be permament. Otherwise if u make a backup using the new CWM U can Restore it aswell.

1. That is because the default Gallery app is removed. You can maybe use Holo Locker as it adapts to your Homescreen wallpaper.
2. Yes I removed them because they take space and are useless. I usually use Zedge for those stuff

U can empty the hostfile and del some fonts too.
Nice work, but imho, a barebone shouldnt have a launcher.
Keep up the good work!

I dwnloaded the gallery 3d app frm play shop bt i guess that is different frm d default gallery app? Although d luk and feel is pretty mch d same bt it doesnt have d option to manage lockscreen wallpaper.
I find holo locker to be snaggy. Its nt as smooth as d stock locker.
Edit
When trying to change d wallpaper of d lockscreen under display settings, i get an FC.

Guys, I think I will be moving this rom over to XXLA2 baseband. I will flash PDA.tar from raj. deodex it and try to move the rom on that Baseband.
Reason: I will implement, Qeemi's 6 lockscreen in the ROM
So wait and hope it goes good

Isn't difficult to add 6 lockscreens mod.
U need to edit android.policy.jar of your firmware
