[Q] Touchwiz 5 - LG Optimus 4X HD

Is it possible to have Touchwiz 5 rom/look on the O4X? And I don't mean the GO Launcher themes or similar stuff, but the actuall UI or at least close to the actuall UI.

Look at my thread Root + CWM + Unsecure boot + Unlockd Bootloader Required [Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203126 ]

To the op. U more might as well just get a Samsung lol. Cos it might never happen. Without sources from lg, our phone willv never gain development support it deserves.

[ROM][CWM] Stock Non Rooted Aug 5 UEKMB Touchwiz OTA

This is a STOCK, NON-ROOTED update.zip of the Touchwiz UEKMB OTA. This is good for those that want to watch Google Videos or those that did not yet receive the OTA (like me). I have only tested this with CWM, so I do not know if it will work with stock recovery.
All I did was remove sudo, su, and busybox from the rooted stock rom posted by DocRambone. So full credit goes to him and those he worked with: bill.allrobots.org, luapclark and Calkulin... and anyone else that may have worked on that rom.

(Mods: I am new to the dev section so if this is the wrong section let me know)
I thought the OTA was around 188meg, this file is 360meg?
Hmmm didn't realize. This is what I flashed to get to the touchwiz ota. It doesn't seem to have anything extra. It is docrambone's stock rooted Rom minus root

This is based off /system after the OTA update. The size is right since its formatting /system extracting the tw update to the directory.

The contacts app works fine in docs ROM.
Well for some strNGE reason doesn't work for me. The application is not installed! Flashed the full stock version.
My contacts work fine... Interesting

Are you going into the App tray and selecting the contacts app from there, or are you using a shortcut on the home screen? Try deleting the shortcut and re-adding it if so. They changed the contacts app in the TW version, so if you had an old shortcut to Contacts on the home screen before the update, after the update it would tell you the app is not installed.
can you guys pull out the Touchwiz for me and pm me with it , i'll be thankful

Touchwiz on Honeycomb is different from Froyo and Gingerbread.
It's not an app or a launcher that you can extract and port to other devices
It's more like the core foundation of TW ROMs

[Q] Android 4.0 Tablet UI for our big Galaxy Note Screen?

Hey guys I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467051
What do you think about it on our 4.0.3 roms? I think it would be great to have the tablet layout on our Note. Also the browser Tabs look better in my opinion
Do you devs think it would be possible to do port it for our roms?
We have tablet layout already. The aosp 4.0.3 rom has a flash able zip to enable or disable tablet mode.

Yeah. it's risky. i think i just bricked my phone ... the system couldn't find the sim-card anymore (after returning to tablet UI disabled) - so no connection ... and now i tried for 5 minutes till i got into CWM and now i get an error on the nandroid backup (which i executed before i tried without error -.-)
i'm on romow @moment: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365246&highlight=romow
There are some issues with the tablet mode and different launchers I think. But if u do tablet and turn dpi up to say 200 its better I think. I tried 240 dpi in normal mode and that was tiny so I have no interest in tablet mode. Plus I have one for that purpose

The tablet mode only works on AOSP.

this time i can confirm its working but installer might fail still we got no /sbin/mount command, so when you are in CWM, goto mounts and mount the /system manually, and the installation should work.

actually the launcher is ok, but very simple and Go Launcher is my preference, i like all the animations
but touchwiz in this one is fine, too bad we do not have the full framework ported, so we could use the multiwindow support which is on samsung Note as well

do you actually own the o4x, i am starting to believe you try to do something you are in no control of?
you attached my recovery apk(which in the same forum, would be easier if you just link to my thread? please do so, no good to post old releases) and says you start it with volume button and power button? i think you need to buy the LG o4x and figure out how it really works? but to be short, this is NOT true, the recovery installer has nothing to do with the recovery you enter during startup, you are sadly wrong again. (it is a locked partition and not changed)

if you make sure your findings work, i am sure users can benefit from it. BUT! if you do not test properly or make changes during your test and do not report this with your link and people's mobile is semi-bricked and need to spend 30-60minutes or even more to fix, it is no good.
so do not stop, but make sure you really know it is good before you post.
its not only the kernel and custom bootloader making it impossible , its also what LG previously shown users, so they care less about new LG mobiles now, so you probably will not see many modders or devs in this section, and personally i am also 99% going for an alternate model, primarily because my issues seems unsolved by another custom system as oneX, as the lag seems to be in the kernel alone

LG UI 3.0 Home + Weather Widget

As Nooby asked to collect all launchers/etc. I decided to open this thread here
Firstly i must say that it was Gabwerkz (so obviously, big thanks for him!) idea to push lg's launcher from repack to cm10. As we all can try - it really wroks !
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is original flashable zip provided by tantrums:
LG_Home3_by_gabwerkz.zip - 24.34 Mb
Only LGhome3 with themes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
What i've changed in my version:
Removed search bar
Added Weather Widget.apk
Download - 42 Mb
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is version proposed by Soleiyu:
Enabled search bar
Added Weather Widget.apk
Download - 42 Mb
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we can discuss this topic in proper place
And this is how my little-modified version looks (you can easily change any icon on homescreen by long-tapping on it, then again on some brush-like thing, and then choose needed icon)
thanks!!! i was looking for it!!! i've tried before my own way pushing the apk extracted from repack but it doesn't work... i hope this one really work!
Will these work with CM10?
Think we should try to port the lockscreen, since it is really nice, but I ve never ported anything, so maybe anyone with time and the knowledge can give it a shot. Dont know, if it's just about to also push the app and chmod it, or if there are serious changes needed for it to work. But I think we would at least have to mod framework a bit...
Thanks for this thread btw

If someone really has knowledge to port lockscreen from lg 3.0 to cm10, lets the black magic begin but if no, that would be big pity, its really pretty.

I wasnt talking about this cheap port.

it depends if the lockscreen uses files from framework or if it is a standalone apk. Haven't played with ICS or JB ROMs yet since I'm waiting for a stable or for an official stock from LG.

Use any kind of themes on your Stock ROM!!!

Saurik, the long time developer of iPhone's jailbreak apps (Cydia, Winterboard etc) has released two apps today for Android systems, Cydia Substrate and Winterboard. Winterboard allows you to use ANY kind of theme (CM themes, Apex themes etc) on stock ROMs without having the required custom ROMs or Launchers for it. Just install Cydia Substrate, do what it says then install Winterboard, then you can install any themes, activate them, then just hot reboot then phone and voilá! It's a great thing IMO, very nice work from him.
Here you can find the apps you need (both free):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.saurik.substrate
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.saurik.winterboard
Root access needed, and not every themes work yet, as they are still in beta phase.

I tried it and I'm absolutly not conviced by these 2 products.
I installed them as described by you and the author several times on a Stok ICS (because I think is that one wich need most theming help) and I experienced lots of FC, freezes and lot of strange behavior (like : re-asking for my Google ID logon).
I tried to use some CM10 themes for experiences but after to many problems I lost faith. So I gave up.
Anyway thanks for the head up.
i tried it too and it's not working for me, only a laggy device and i can't change the theme i don't know why
