[MOD] MIUI Launcher w/ Customizable Homescreen Grid Size - Android Software Development

While working on making the port of MIUI for the Kindle Fire more usable for the tablet I decided to take on modifying the launcher. After a bit of smali work I was able to allow the number of rows and columns in the launcher to be adjusted.
Although I originally intended this mod to be primarily for the Kindle Fire port of MIUI.us, I have received numerous requests for the modified apk. So, without further ado, I bring to the masses the MIUI Launcher with adjustable homescreen grid size. I started this mod with MIUI 2.1.13 so make sure you download the APK that goes with your version of MIUI.
Please note this will not work with other ROMs as it relies heavily on the MIUI framework.
Instructions
--------------------------------
1) Download the appropriate APK and place it in the root of your SD card
2) Rename the file to Launcher2.apk
3) Using either Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (with root privileges) copy the file to /system/app
4) Change the file permissions to -rw-r--r--
5) At this point your Launcher probably closed so press home to bring it back up. At this point it should be the new modified version. If not, just reboot your device.
6) Go to launcher settings and adjust the # of columns and rows you would like. hint: start out with small values and increase them as you see fit
7) Once you change the # of columns and rows press Reset Launcher to get the launcher to use the new settings.
8) Enjoy getting a little more room for your favorite apps and widgets.

Congratulations to those that actually took the time to read the OP. I applaud you for being part of the minority here on XDA. For those of you who do not take a minute to read the OP, well there isn't much to say. Because you won't be reading this and you will end up asking some stupid question that could have been answered by reading this. - |0xD34D|

Nope not just tablets. It started out as a need for something better on a tablet but it should work just as well on other devices.
The request I was receiving were for people that wanted to use it on their phone and it has worked well for them.

bro,
1. do it support scrollable widget?
2. support widget resize?

1. No
2. No
#1 is probably much more of a realistic possibility, while #2 would really take some work seeing as I am working in pure smali. That's not to say it can't be done, but with the way the MIUI launcher deals with widget placement, it may take quite a bit of work to implement it.

If I had the time to dig into such an endeavor, I would. Right now I have other projects that require my attention.
Who knows, I may need a little break and decide to give it a shot.

nice work bro!
i got a request for you
can you make the edits needed for this nice hack in the launcher2.apk in THIS zip?
the launcher2.apk included in the zip above does support scrollable widgets
and when you change the density the icons will remain all the same size
and the text label will be just under the icon instead of in the icon like in your screenshots
i hope you can look at it thanks
PS. the .13 launcher just works in the .20 rom

I'm not about to go and use another person's work without permission. I'll have to make sure it is alright with the original creator of that mod before using their work. I can however, look into what it takes to enable these features and just implement them myself. The icon title is an easy one so no worries there. Scrollable widgets however, I have not used so I'll have to take a look at them.

True, the 2.1.13 launcher does work, but there are some subtle differences in them that may or may not be an issue. If it works and there are no issues then great, but if there are it may be best to use the version that corresponds to the ROM.

Will this work on the ICS test 1.11.9 build? I'm not sure what the newer updates include as far as the code, but I figure they might include some of the stuff from 1.11.9

Nope not gonna work.
Let me try this one more time. It is for MIUI v2.1.13 or v2.1.20. Those version numbers are from the official miui.com versions.

If you change the grid size, your folders look terrible once opened.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

Not working for me on MIUI 2.1.13 on HTC HD2 NAND
After replace of Launcher only Bootloop!

thx
working for me, thx for that!
only thing i really miss is the possibilty to deactivate the text label of the apps under the icons, because depending on the values i choose for gridsize the names overlap each other, so it would make sense if they could be deactivated.
do you think there is a possibility to include this feature? or could/would you tell me how i can do it myself?
greetz,
sUsH667

Can anyone make it for non miui Rom .
HTC Sense 3.5,Android 2.3.5

Great looking mod, any chance you can make a mod for MIUI 2.2.3?

you should try this one which i pulled from the switch-tweaks-pack made by prazaar, all credits go to him!
just copy it to /system/app overwriting the existing launcher in there (backup before!) and giving it rw-r--r-- permissions, then restart and that's it. if you experience any problems you could wipe cache and dalvik-cache and reboot again, but i don't think it is necessary.
i am using this one and it has customizable grid-size AND the possibilty to deactivate the text label of the apps under the icons and all the other stuff, too!
as always, i am not responsible for nothing bla...

[THEME] Gefrost MultiROM Theme (09-09-10) Galaxy S Style

This project started as just a modified version of Defrost rom and has now shifted to a flashable theme where YOU choose the base rom. Currently it supports Open Desire, Defrost and CyanogenMod. It is made this way with the aim of you having the most choice. It gives me opportunity to work more on updates to actual theme files. The themes should remain compatible with updates to the roms other than big updates.
I will work my hardest to keep the theme updated​
Gefrost Theme​
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Included-
You now choose the base rom. DF/CM/OD or now DEODEXED Sense roms.
Touchwiz launcher port.
Touchwiz wallpaper chooser.
Galaxy S Theme ported by myself with extra blue bits added.
Black/Dark sms app from CyanogenMod 6.
Blue Dialer/Contacts (From mythamps)
Modified music.apk (See screens of widgets)
Custom boot animation made for me. (Thanks Xevin!)
NOTES:
For colours to be set for date and time etc. During flashing a file called cmparts_ui.xml is written to sdcard. All you need to do is go to settings, CyanogenMod Settings (Or OD Settings), User Interface, Tweaks Extras and select import from xml. Then reboot.
Using the touchwiz launcher!
You will notice that in my screen i have 4 icons on the bottom bar. To do this you need to press applications icon then press menu button. Choose edit then you may drag whatever icons you want to display on your homescreen to the bottom bar. This is just how the touchwiz launcher works. You can also select edit and press icons to delete them.
If you have missing icons for your apps after restoring them please make sure you are using an ext partition on your sdcard. Touchwiz doesn't like Googles a2sd.
DOWNLOAD:
The zips ARE NOT SIGNED. Disable sig verification in recovery first or just use ClockworkMod.
OpenDesire Theme (4.0.10)
CyanogenMod Theme (For 6.0.1 onwards.)
Defrost Theme (3.8)
Battery Percentage Deodexed Sense Theme
Galaxy S Live Wallpapers
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download your rom of choice first. (DF, OD or CM.)
Make first boot with rom.
Reboot to recovery and flash theme zip.
Import colour settings from SD.
Done!
CREDIT:
I realise some stuff i used (Music Mod, Touchwiz) were made by or ported by other people. I forget their names but just want to make it clear i am not claiming any credit for them.

As i changed it to Dark Tremors a2sd it is only regular a2sd but like in first post i said download any terminal app. Type "su" then type "a2sd cachesd" and it will move dalvik cache to sd card.

Custom Lockscreen Background (OpenDesire and DeFrost)

...presenting
Lockscreen mod with Customizable Background
for OpenDesire and DeFrost​
I've modded the framework and enabled custom lock-screen backgrounds. I've currently got it working on my custom mods for OpenDesire and DeFrost.
This is not lockbot or widgetlocker, this is a modified vanilla lock-screen.
Please don't attempt this if you don't understand all of this. I am not responsible for any damage this may cause. I recommend doing a nandroid before playing around with this.
This will make your screen look silly when answering a call from a locked screen. There is nothing I can do about this.
I've included 2 lockscreen images for the black mod and templates for both black and white. If you are using the stock sliders, you don't need to use a template, just make sure the image is the correct size.
Here is proof:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
...now in white
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What you need to have
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
HTC Desire, S-Off'ed and running OpenDesire 4.0.34-37 or DeFrost 5.6
Ninjamorph and dependencies
My Custom framework
Photoshop/GIMP.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What you need to do
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash one of my themes through recovery, ensuring signature verification is off.
Let phone restart
Bask in glory of new lockscreen for a second, then realise you can't read the status bar.
Extract the .xml files to \SDcard\CMTheme\ and apply either through the settings menu (Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User interface > Tweaks extras > ) then restart for configuration to load.
Enjoy new theme
Make a lockscreen that is 480*800, If you want it to look best, place it under either of the layers photoshop. If using the white lock widget use the white psd file.
Place lockscreen on SDcard.
Open Ninjamorph
>New Project
Navigate to system>framework>framework-res.apk>res>drawable-hdpi>lockscreen_bg.png
Select the file you would like to have as your background
Select "finish project" select framework-res.apk, then "yes", "yes" or "no", "yes", "yes". Let phone restart to new lockscreen background.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you don't have an S-OFF'd Desire
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download one of my themes.
Open the file in an archive program (I use 7zip) and navigate to framework\framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\. Locate "lockscreen_bg.png" and extract this file.
Edit the file, put it back in the archive, flash theme.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alternatively you want other framework
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, here it is guys. My first attempt at a Metamorph and only for OpenDesire.
You can only use this on stock, or simple themes. My definition of "simple theme" is one which is only changed icons, this means no battery mods which use more than the 6 steps that is the default, ie. no *.xmls are edited. or...
you will get stuck in a boot-loop
Instructions.
Download "custom_lockscreen.zip"
Open Metamorph and point it to this file.
Select apply all - it should reboot into your new background.
Then use ninjamorph to change background as outlined above.
As this is my first attempt at a metamorph, please be sure you backup before testing it. I am not responsible for anything going pear-shaped.
Reserved, just in case
****in' A...
This is AWESOME!
Nice work, dude!
EDIT: Here's a screenshot of the lockscreen in action. Looks GREAT!
Isn't there any way to use it in other ROMs?

Not currently. It requires modding the xmls in the framework of the rom. As far as I know, this will require each rom to be decompiled then edited then recompiled which I don't have time to do and/or maintain.

Can't you add your code to Cyanogen or Open Desire or anything like that & maybe they can create a new option? I know nothing about developing but I know that they can merge your code within android.
does this work also with your white theme classglass?
can i use aswell the white.xml file for that lockbar?

Yeah I too know nothing about developing. I have no idea how to go about this. I tend to leave this to more capable people as it takes me too long to code anything. I only really post what I come up with and use, its become a bit of a hobby. I don't have time to port/merge code, as I don't require it and it's not worth my time.

Not as yet. If you use the "flat_white.xml" file you should get a white statusbar, but the icons will look inverted.
I probably won't have the white version up until late this week.

Enjoy
thx alot.looks smooth

[THEME] Pure iOS 5 (1.2)[MIUI]

Okay, Don't sue me apple..
please read this entire thing, its filled with useful information about MIUI
Sorry, this post turned out to be a mess :/
This is my first theme in a while..
This theme is not future-proof but you can help me by updating me on dead links and other broken things ;D
It's nowhere near finished. Still has a few bugs. If someone could help me fix these that would be great. (Im not much of a programmer) just email me at [email protected] with some edits you made.
Requirements
Miui for Droid or Milestone
My themepack
Yep that simple. First off, hope you have MIUI. cuz you'll be needing it.
Link to MIUI ROMS
Google Apps
Just use RomManager to flash over to MIUI
I ripped some icons off an iPhone4 systemdump and "borrowed" some code from existing miui themes.
The themes where in Chinese, so i translated most of it..
The files that are in .mtz format. they can be edited by renaming it to .zip. also files with no extension can be edited if renamed to .zip
Bugs
Lockscreen notificationbar is clear
Unlock slider slides a bit too far (unfixable, i believe)
iOS 5 style Notification center needs some fixing
Font needs to be white for notification center
Get rid of all the orange in the Notification Center
Launcher Slider Dots arent round
There isnt a first page search function (not fixable)
Bottom home screen row needs icon titles

I REALLY dont want to be held responsible if you screw something up when flashing it. Dont unplug while Flashing ;D
The MIUI folder should go straight into your SD card. it should ask to replace or merge files. Allow this.

i wouldnt quite call them bugs now that i think about it, just imperfections. only a nandroid will undo this because you're flashing a new rom
Great Looking Theme!
When doing a nandroid backup, I would have to go to the recovery screen correct so I can flash back to what I have now? Thanks. Is there another way to do this backup besides rebooting into recovery?

Hi everyone...
I think, "Android" should look like Android. I respect and consider your great efforts, but MIUI gives us the possibility to make what we want; and it's not cool see any Android Smartphone with the Apple's iOS appearance; that looks like we are envying to have that OS. Sincerely, I believe Android is better than iOS, not only in the kernell or fuctions or versatility, but graphic appearance is superior.
Greetings from Ecuador.

But Thanks. I'll download when this file uploads another sites!
Hey guys I'm not a big MIUI fan but what MIUI Scotland is doing is messed up and if you support the real MIUI devs, THEN I think you should support their efforts in spreading the word and exposing MIUI Scotland for stealing work without proper credit!!

AOSP Launcher with transparent drawer and more

hi!
i modded the Stock android 4.0.3 launcher
so its the original one with some extras
i modded it for personal use
but a friend asked me to share it so here it is
enjoy
- transparent drawer
- options menu
enable/disable searchbar
resize any widget
show page indicator
fade indicator
auto-rotate screen
DOWNLOADS
APK
http://www.multiupload.com/I4UEWI5VGZ
Flashable zip
http://www.multiupload.com/5TGQNINB6R
INSTALL/problems
the launcher ONLY works on ICS (4.0.3)
you can download it and install it(but widgets dont work)
if you push it to system all works!
you can do so with the CWM flashable package
or you can download the APK and and copy paste it there(/system/app/) with a root file explorer (root explorer, es file explorer )
and adb is possible but for the ones that know adb this should not be any problem
if u run a STOCK ROM(cm9 not included)
and cant get it installed
i think its because the package name is the same as the original Ics Launcher2 (com.android.launcher)
so if u delete the original one from system/app and place the modded one there it should work!
No screenshots but a video so u can see all works (sorry for the bad quallity)

The transparent drawer is a nice addition.
Unfortunately, wallpaper scrolling does not work.
Keep going!

strange it should work.. isnt it your wallpaper?
or try reinstall
thnx!
Nope.
Nova Launcher (based on 4.0.3) and ADW(2.x) both work fine. Your launcher and Trebuchet keep this bug. for example. Are you branching Trebuchet? If so, you might have inherited the bug.

yes no problem ill post screenshots later
maybe u should download a third party launcher from the market..
delete the original Launcher2.apk and then place the apk in system with root explorer or try the flashable package again

Great work man! It looks great, it's exactly was I was looking for. One more thing last, BTW: you should make desktop icons disappear when opening the launcher. I mean... when you open the drawer, on the background you can still see the homescreens icons besides the wallpaper. It would be definitely amazing if only the wallpaper was showing as the drawer background... but I guess it won't be any difficoult for you!
Anyway, congratulations and thanks for your efforts! Can't wait for further optimizations ;D

How to install Samsung ICS Stock Clock APP to ROM's that don't include this Clock

I have found a possibility to install the ICS Standard Clock (ClockPackage.akp)! I have copied with a root Explorer apk to Home> system> app. Then I have copied a second renamed apk (rename ClockPackage.apk to com.clockpackage-1.apk) to home> data> app. After the app was installed in the drawer. Maybe you have to change the settings for tones, because for me the standard timer tone was not available (included) . I hope I could help.
Link to apk .ttp://.ww.mediafire.com/?9cnilvgc3ame9gx
copy link and change first . to h and second. to w
had to do that because this is my first post and i m not allowed to put link under 8 posts.
Hi, I had a question about this. I'm running CM9 and the AOSP clock is garbage compared to the one that comes with Samsung ROMS (no world clock, timer, stop watch). Is there a way to get the Samsung clock, get rid of the touchwiz requirement and use it on CM9. Apparently the GNex owners have been able to do it but that version does not look good since the resolution is different. Here's a link to that thread.
Samsung clock probably requires the framework from Touchwiz, if the ROM isn't a Touchwiz based ROM it's unlikely that you would be able to port it.
Hi, I m on Foxhound 0.4 Rom using apex launcher. So i cant tell u if this will work for u. Took the apk from Omega ICS 5.0 rom. So just try it. Here are a few screenshoots how the clock look.

Like I said, it does require Touchwiz, but the thread I linked to shows the Galaxy nexus owners able to install it by removing touchwiz specific parts from the apk. I'm hoping someone can replicate it for our phones.

I'm not familiar with those roms, but if they are based on samsung roms then it needs touchwiz, which doesn't help. i don't think they are aosp, but if they are can you post the clock.apk? thanks
Here is the apk from epic 4g touch which works on cm9. I tried to edit my build.prop to the epic 4g because the dpi is the same as our phone but i'm not sure i edited all the lines. I changed only the values that CWM recovery was showing for "assert failed" after failing installation. The exact lines I edited are in the attachment. Can anyone tell me what else needs to be changed. Thanks

so just try it, and post if it works or not.
I m just a user not dev or something like that. i just found that out, at trying to get that clock installing.
A good alternative is "Ice Cream Sandwich Clock" apk by "julios js" available from the market, which is supposed to work regardless of your android version
Found a page with a mod for CM9 Users to user Samsung apps.
Link: .ttp://.ww.android-hilfe.de/custom-roms-fuer-samsung-galaxy-s2/212829-rom-aokp-cm9-sakaschi-mod.html
copy link and change first . to h and second . to w
have no permissions yet to link.
hope i could help
Guys if you just want to install the ICS analogue clock from Nexus style here is the download link for you guys
Image from android police just to show you guys what it is like. I have this working on cm9 and Slim ICS. just install like a normal apk. Then when you go on homescreen just long press the screen and then choose widgets and scroll down to were it says ICS analogue clock and that is it
Many thanks to the poster in cm9 can not remember his name who got this..not my work just thought i share it with you guys..

OK, it seams I'm doing something wrong.
I have a SGS2.
I'm running CM9, to be more specific: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530179
I copy your attached file ClockPackage.apk using Root Explorer (in R/W mode) to:
/system/app/ClockPackage.apk
and
/data/app/com.clockpackage-1.apk
And then I reboot the phone... Wipe cache and Dalkiv-Cache...
But nothing happened.
I also try to "install" the ClockPackage.apk, but says that cannot be installed.
Should I first delete the CM9 original clock?
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!
It seams that what is needed is this: http://epiccm.blogspot.com.ar/2012/01/porting-touchwiz-apps-for-cm7.html
And a version of the files can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452004
But I'm not sure if will work.
Also, we need to update the files to ICS, because seams that the files are for CM7 (GB).
Hi,
You need Touchwizz installed to make the clock 1.0 to work.
I tested with CM9 and D4rom but the clock doesn't install.
So I installed the Darky rom LPQ
.ttp://.ww.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/i9100-cwm-darkyrom-hd-base-xxlpq.7376/
This is the stock rom with a few things and the nova launcher.
The clock 1.0 is already in so it works great.
Please correct the link because I'm not authorised to post them yet. I have not enought post.
Best regards.
domzique, thanks. But I was looking for a method to install Clock 1.0 in CM9.
Im trying to find the clock 1.0 for AOKP based roms, searched everywhere but cant find it
SGS2: didn't work here neither
