get rid of twlancher

Hi guys,
for know am running stock rom on mine so am forced to use tw but am intersted once ics is out to take full advantage of its UI but without tweaking with the rom and without adding a different launcher and without loosing any functionalities of my phone​the question: is it possible?
thx in advance.

you would have to flash a custom rom thats its either cm9 or aosp version

So it is impossible to have ics stock Rom on my phone...:-(

It is impossible for all of us to have stock ICS on our Notes, since it hasn't been released yet.
But don't lose hope, the initial release is expected within a month or so.

But yout do lose s-pen with cm9!

I don't have a note, but we can do this on any other touchwiz device I've ever tried. Go to settings -> applications -> all -> twlauncher -> clear defaults. Then when you press the home button, it should give you a choice of launchers, one of which is the reg Google launcher. I'm currently using that I'm my leak build of ics for the epic touch. So I assure you, when they release it for the note, it will be possible.

I think youre pressing the clear data button rather than the clear defaults button.

or its quite possible that it just isnt available on the note like it is on other devices

my "clear defaults" button is greyed out...

I can confirm you only get tw launcher with the note. But you should be able to download the gingerbread launcher apk and install it on the note. Then jut uninstall the tw launcher.

in this case which one will be faster?

shendu ROM

I have used almost all the custom ROMs..i think this rom is the best in terms of speed, and mostly the best battery life. i don't like its launcher and am using adw-ex. its working great.. But again it may depend on individual basis. you can give a try !

I can't the thread honestly... So I think it's good to have another thread on Shendu

does the ROM have any SODs/hangs? I really need a reliable and battery-efficient rom..

The problem with this ROM is they removed most of the CM settings, most importantly "scrolling cache". You can't disable it, scrolling stutters so much. It's a little faster than official though atleast in Antutu.

as for me..i haven't got sod...but there is fc sometimes but its very very rare. new update released yesterday!

If I'm not mistaken, the default KB is called "Shendu". use Titanium Backup to uninstall it. Or go to system/app and rename the .apk to .apk.bak. Then you can use the keyboard of your choice.

Tried long pressing in the text field and choosing from there? I had to do that with lewa os
just sayin...

Long pressing in the text field don't work. No keyboards selection.
I froze Shendu but still there was no SlideIt.

Tried keyboard manger app from market?
just sayin...

Here is mediafire link for those who like to try the latest update from shendu:

Kernel with BLN
In settings you should have an advanced tab with "backlight timer", if you have a kernel with BLN working (CastagnaIT ones) you can set it to "never"

that's right but it only disables the backlight of the soft buttons when the screen is locked and you have a new notification

You need a black permanent marker

Im totally agree, its just using the battery. Btw im using arcoz rom with CastagnaITz kernel, BLN control is not working.

please use general or Q&A i9000 forum......

Guys is very important for me for reserve the battery and the nice look... Hypnos sorry

remember that they are even on in recovery mode. if it's possible, it's gonna be hard to find the code which controls those lights.

You can do them manually by editing the system UI and changing some settings.. but you need to be rooted for that.. or yes PA is a custom rom which has feature of changing status bar color and icons

this is sound interesting, iam rooted, so how to do it?

Do you have cwm recovery ? Backup, wipe, flash rom+gapps zips. Reboot.
If u dont have cwm recovery flash a recovery image using odin or heimdall.
Dont know how to do that? Search/google.

Peace of a cake
You can also change somethings with rom toolbox pro

if it is for stock ROM i will ask why you would need to do that?

I have the same question, is a bit tricky to press home and power button to take a Screenshot everytime, and im om Stockrom becuase i like it =P
i have a rooted SIII Mini, there is a way to add the Screenshot menu ?

Yes it is possible but no one's gonna bother with that cause most of us are using Vanilla version of Android.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=how to add screenshot to power menu 4.1.2
just used the search and this is what i found
i can help you to do it, but i won't be adding this feature to any of my work

It is hard to make flashable zip or addon to our device specially all stock rom base?,i think it is a good feature.
