Easily removing Touchwiz on ALL Galaxy S phones (Me thinks) and legit.

Its been right in our faces all this time. I plan on doing this once the froyo update hits. I do see the options shown hear though.
Looks like I'm too new of a user to post links.

Doesn't work on vibrant or captivate.....

That wont work, the vanilla launcher is not installed on our phones, as it is on the epic 4g, i tried this a while back like the first week i got my phone.

I'm pretty sure this is fake. The home launcher is not installed on the vibrant by default.

Hmmm, well I do not believe its fake. Although this was posted from Androidcentral. I'm considering on going to a Sprint store and asking to play with a model for myself Hopefully I don't get someone in trouble. Maybe Samsung heard our opinions on TW?

Why is this in development? It certainly has nothing to do with development at all. It is just a repost from an Android website.

Vibrant9 is going to be touchwiz free.

Or, if you look at the sticky in general, there is now a link for the vanilla 2.1 launcher. You can install that, set it as default, and get the vanilla experience.

yea this is in the wrong section and, it is not applicable for the vibrant, this only works on the epic, Samsung added the vanilla launcher as another option.

You can put any launcher on it you want.
This is dumb though because it doesnt get rid of touchwiz, it is just switching launchers.

Directions for removing touch wiz.
1. Open market
2.hit menu\search
3.type "launcher pro" without collins
4.install and follow app instructions to get running.

[Q] Best Rom for Froyo 2.2.1. & rooted Samsung Epic

I have a samsung epic rooted currently on Froyo 2.2.1 with clockwork mod
Im looking for a rom thats fast, has no issues & has the homescreen that look like the evo, even if a rom makes my Epic run like its a Evo is cool too? please let me know

Htc sense isn't available for Samsung Epic. But...you can install Beautiful Widgets app to look like the Htc Sense clock for your home screen.

+1 I couldn't stop laughing

my phone is rooted, & from what i read, when your fones rooted, it puts a program called super user on your phone which allows you access to apps regular phones cant & that those apps are free. & after reading the reviews on beautiful wigets ppl are saying that the programs weather is often wrong like it says sunny @ 2a.m. lol n that it sucks battery dry n slow fone down
have yu had problems out if it.

Guy, don't believe everything you read. I know this might come as a complete surprise but not everyone knows what they are doing with their phones and misinformation is spread constantly. Try it for yourself, if you don't like it, refund it in less than 24hrs.
Just because you rooted doesn't mean pay apps are free. Yes there are apps that need root to function properly that are free, as there are also ones that are not free.

I use beautiful widgets for my clock and weather and have seen no problems with it being correct. I also use LauncherPro, both of these together basically mimics EVO's Sense UI perfectly.

ok thanks for the information, are you familiar with superuser?

Superuser refers to the user's ability to access system functions. With android it essentially grants admin access allowing you to modify things usually 'off-limits' to standard users.

oh ok cool. what do you have in your superuser?

This can't be real
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

what do yu have in your superuser? all i have is the wireless tether

C'mon people don't be so harsh.
Basically the idea is just to let you access functions that are generally blocked by sprint or samsung. How you want to use it is up to you.

Where is TouchWiz for our wifi units???

Did samsung release touchwiz yet? Im mean whats the hold up?
and before anyone says anything, no, I dont want to install the buggy hacked touchwiz some people have rigged together in a few threads here. I want the official TouchWiz install.

Maybe they will first release with the 3g model and give the stupid carriers something to brag about.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk

lolz, if you dont want the "buggy hacked touchwizz some people have rigged together" why dont you just send a mail to Samsung directly ?!
ahahahaha unbelievable...
PS: wrong forum !

So are you telling me samsung is asking to touch our wiz before we can get the update? Grows!

Now that's something Samsung needs to deliver at least with the wi-fi version. There's no carrier restriction on it (eg. xoom wi-fi got the HC 3.2 and 3G version is waiting on carrier approval). Just bragging about the thinnest and lightest tablet wont help them getting love from the regular user. I hope Samsung doesn't screw on this one.

I love how before the Tab was released everyone was saying "no touchwiz!", and now everyone is saying "where's my touchwiz!?"

even without Touchwiz Tab is so cool even the BestBuy staff when they see it first time they surprised how good tab is. OP don't wait for TW you can enjoy your tab Now.

We will probably see the official touchwiz update sometime in april or may.

We'll be seeing the 20.1 then.

The longer this Tab stays without the TouchWiz the better.
Most of you guys that want touchwiz immediately you will cry out loud once you get it.
Just wait and you will see.. Its going to be fun lool

Mini apps tray

Hello there, I have an unrooted galaxy tab with touchwiz ux running android 3.1. I was wondering if anyone knows how to change a couple of apps in the mini apps tray! Thanks for the help ahead of time.

Check it.

You can't change the apps in the touchwiz bar.
But try this out....

1) Again, Yes you can change the apps in the bar. Remember just because you dont know how to do it does not mean it cant be done. Samsung has released the API to do so.
2) Wizz Bar sucks. All it does is bring up shortcuts to apps which overtake the entire screen. The beauty of TouchWiz is that the apps run on top of whatever app you were already using and you can drag them around the screen. There is nothing like this in the market.

Remember if you can't provide proof its not done and don't give a link to a website that does not take us directly to the proof.
It seems that you like to make a new claim or a statement about something false for the week... This week the api, since tomorrow is a new week, what other false claims do you have? The pictures of the Sdcard slot in your tab, the color changing task bar...? Oh wait those were in the past. Can't wait to see your next lie.

Again, no you can't change the apps in the touchwiz taskbar. You my friend are a deranged person. The mini apps in the touchwiz taskbar are not like regular apps. They are different. Linking some website proves nothing except that you read some blogger as I stated before. Theoretically you can say things like an API is released but realistically you can do nothing as of right now. If you can please post some pics with your screen shot button of regular apps magically running as a mini app. If you cannot post your screen shot then you my friend are still a troll. Not a link, a screen shot.

I was making a dumb **** joke about the silly names their marketers came up with---it was late, a thousand pardons. I actually like the TouchWiz UI, except for the silly world time app.

I hear ya on the late thing. Learning about Android keeps me up way too late. I just re-read your post with your purpose explained. It is kind of funny now. I love touchwiz, except for the taskbar being grey.

5thElement can take a lesson here, slack04 provided evidence to support the claim!

Dudes, don't be jealous. 5th Element is too busy hacking a custom Android 6.0 Hot Fudge Sundae ROM on a prototype six-core 4GHz CPU to bother with proof.

[Q] MultiUser Support on Official UK Stock ROM - Tab 2 7"

Hi All,
I was wondering if the samsung original 4.2.2 stock ROM has multi user support. I just moved back from CM 10.1 and did not find it available straight forward. If it is not available, is there a way to enable it?

Sadly , Samsung didn't include this feature in ANY rom for the Tab 2, and as far as i can see, no custom rom has this either, I recall hearing of a group who tested it on our device, but it was scrapped for being far too unstable, slow and all around too much for our tabs to handle, I would think the tab 2, maybe overclocked if even would be enough to handle Multiwindow, but I don't know, I'd dig around a little bit , Google is your best friend! Would be cool to have it.

Bad news. I updated only because I wanted multiple users option, and they've removed it? Or can I just not find it? Good that there's an update and all, but bad that stock features are removed.
