[Q] App drawer scrolling on touch wiz - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Hi All!
I really love the new TouchWiz but one thing that is annoying is the scrolling on app drawer. it to much iphone and not so comfortable.
so I wonder, is there a way to change the app drawer so it will be scrolling down and has 3D like the stock android/adw?
Thank You!

Switching to an alternative launcher like ADW Launcher EX is probably the easiest solution.
Try the "Nexus"-preset & "Vertical new" for the app drawer!

I think you didn't understood me properly(or maybe I didn't explain myself clear):
I really like what samsung did with the TouchWiz 4. So I want to keep it.
I want just to change the AppDrawer to be vertical scrolling(prefer with 3d).
Is theres a way to do that?

Im used to app drawers with the apps sorted in alfabetic order.
Is there an easy way of doing this in TW4?

In the app drawer, hit menu and then 'List view'. A reboot will default to the original.
No 3d I'm afraid.

[Q] Is it possible to get this app drawer...

With out using a launcher?
Hmm?
The launcher is "what you see"
It's like explorer.exe on your windows computer.
You have to have one.

The LauncherPro app gives you that capability. In its preference menu, simply maneuver to the 'advanced' setting and enable the 'use 3D drawer' feature.

It'll change your homescreen and your app drawer.
It won't touch your theme.
Yes, you will not have a rosie anymore because launcher pro will take it's place.

It has been on some themes and rosies mods, but I cant remember for what roms. look in the themes/mods section for whatever rom you are running, and you might get lucky.

He will have 'both' and until he makes one of them the default launcher, he will be prompted to choose between the two whenever he hits the home key.

Wow, really ? Of course there always has to be somebody to point out the obvious. I doubt the op is that ignorant that he can't figure that out when it asks him. I guess some people just can't help but argue. Yet another useless post in the wonderland that is XDA.

nope except that you can replace the app drawer in sense using an app...
...
Thanks for quick answer but I dont need to change app drawer Need something for homescreen
Not sure but if you could figure out what the intent is to call rosie (sense app drawer) then you could possibly create a LauncherPro shortcut to open it? Any smali gods out there know if this would be possible?

That's pretty much exactly what I am doing. I use Apex Launcher as my launcher, but I have a shortcut created by xShortcuts that launches Rosie for the photo widget. Unfortunately, I don't think you can call a specific screen - you can only call the launcher itself.

Yup that's the way it is possible but man that's pretty much time you loose by opening sense just for having these sense widgets.
And you have 2 launchers running then since sense will be only killed when you reboot again.
Dunno for what you want that sense widgets but I would look at play store and see if there is a alternative widget which maybe has even a themeable skin?!

I've been looking for a replacement widget for the HTC album widget for a couple years now and have never found anything. If anyone around here knows of one, I'd love to use it!

I used Go Launcher for a while, and it has great Messaging and Email widgets... really everything Sense has, EXCEPT the photo widget.

Well my last tip for you is launcher pro.
There has been a launcher pro which was skinned like sense. But dunno if it had that widget...
There was a Rom for the hd2 that's why I know that one.

If you download a custom launcher from the market you can change the names to whatever you like. GO Launcher EX will allow you to change the names however due to GO Launcher being a RAM hog your phones performance will slip a little. I'm unsure if other less-RAMhogging launchers will let you do that but you can look on the market.

Yes. It's been a while since I used GO Launcher so I've forgotten how you get the menu up to change it, but it definitely works.

I'm in touchwiz , I could get nova or apex.. but don't I loose features for doing that?
I could have sworn as well that there was a app that allowed scrolling wallpapers for touchwiz.

There is in the playstore. From the reviews dont think it was working to well. Just install Nova.....or Apex and try it out. If you dont like them you can just go back to using TW. I might be missing something but I dont think you lose anything by using one of those 3rd party launchers, but you will gain many customization options.

Edge 5x6 Launcher with Speed Options

This is for KK. I will be working on a lollipop soon.
I know it isn't much, but I hate the stock screen grid, so I created a 5x6 launcher and apps grid. It seems to be working with all the widgets. Let me know if there is anything I missed. The home grid is 5x6, the app drawer is 5x6, and the folders are 4x5.
This should work on all roms that have twrp or cw. If you do not, but are rooted, take out the TouchWizHome.apk and put it into/system /priv-app/, delete the TouchWizHome.apk and TouchWizHome.odex(if you have it). Reboot and Profit.
I have made it so you will not have to do anything but flash the zip. You do not have to remove the odex file. If for some reason you do please let me know. All you should have to do is go into Settings, Application Manager, All Apps, TouchWizHome - Clear settings.
I have added the 5x6 regular speed, fast and insane. I've done the 4x5 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer that many have asked for. I did think it was kinda weird, so I made a 4x6 Home Screen and 4x6 App Drawer too.
If there is something I need to add to this please let me know, I was told I have issues explaining myself
Thanks Toss3 for the values to edit the launcher and SkywalkerZ for the values to edit for the speed.
If you like the post, please hit thanks
Here is a revert just in case...

I replaced the apk using root explorer and setting permissions.. works like a charm!! Awesome work!!

Could you explain what this is? Is it an overlay for the stock TW launcher? Or is this a completely new launcher, similar to using Nova?

Sorry, wasn't notified you posted on here.
If you aren't on deoxed, you have to delete TouchwizHome.odex.
Otherwise You might have to wipe the settings on Touchwiz Home

That module doesn't do anything to the note edge launcher.
I'm really just requesting the app drawer to be 4x6, if possible. The homescreen can stay the same, I like 4x5. [emoji1]
