[Q] Touchwiz settings

Ok, I give up. I have Googled for 3 days and read that **** manual cover to cover.
How in the world do you edit the Touchwiz settings? I remember the first day I went to the settings and changed the Show Windows from 5 to 7.
I for the LIFE of me cannot remember how in the WORLD I did that...
So, please, please do not flame me...first Samsung phone and clueless...
Thanks

For some reason, I thought it was under the MENU, then on some i have seen EDIT , but its not there...grrr....

Hi I don't think you can change touchwiz setting short of rooting your phone and editing a few text files. The Epic comes with 7 homescreens and can't be changed from it unless a new launcher is installed. You can however disable the touchwiz launcher if you want the vanilla android look and you can also install an aditional launcher such as launcher pro, which is what I did. Installing a new launcher means you cannot use the touchwiz widgets such as the friend update widget or the taskmanager widget or any of the touchwiz clocks. However the comm manager in the notifications bar is still there as well as the task manager button on long home press.

So that option is not available on our phones? Or is this a "modded" Touchwiz...

We have a gimp version of touchwiz until Froyo comes. Many of us use Launcher Pro or ADW because Touchwiz mostly sucks and the widgets do the same.

[Q] Q: Home Screen does not rotate even after upgrading to 4.1.2

I have verified that the rotate lock is not active. Also, I am using Nova launcher as my default if that helps.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Perhaps your screen orientation lock is on - you need to turn it off? An easy way to find out would be that all apps will be in portrait mode – no matter how you tilt your screen.

GO Launcher HD for Pad

At last a proper launcher for tablets :good:
It still isnt as customizable as the phone version, but it is much better to use landscape mode, the screen not rotating all the time

I do use the same ROM - any customization of lock screen widgets natively are found at System Settings > My Device > Lock Screen > Lock Screen Widgets
If you want to regain the bottom shortcuts such as (Phone, Google, Messaging, etc) then make sure "Shortcuts" is checked.
If you're wanting the different 'pages' of widgets on the lock screen, make sure "Multiple Widgets" is selected.
But if you're running your own launcher that may have adjusted your lockscreen, I have no freaking idea.

ive been waiting for a black and red theme for such a long time now
thanks
EDIT
ehh how to install this ?

Use Apex Nova or whichever Launcher has theme support.
With NOVA you would get the same Effect as u see in the screenshot.

works with apex but there is no setting for nova to select a theme :/

In Nova go to Nova settings and then LOOK and Feel Option to find themes.

Thread cleaned... let's get back on-topic here thanks guys.

Thanks and Gratifications

Welcome friend

Hi,
sorry for annoying you but the more I use your theme the more I love it
Only a question. On your description on Google Play you say 1300+ hd icons, but I'm able to see only 40 icons using Nova launcher.
What I'm doing wrong ?
thanks a lot
