Hi Everyone,
I tried to find a lot on all sections and google for a good touchwiz Mod but to no avail. So i thought of asking u guys for some insight to Mod Touchwiz for our beloved Galaxy S.
So i extracted TouchWiz30Launcher.apk to a folder. Was checking the different resources and i came across \res\anim and i saw two files fade_in_fast.xml and fade_out_fast.xml. Now they are binary XML files. So the question is can we modify or delete some values and speed up touchwiz. I dont care about the fancy transition or effects. Just raw speed. Please forgive me if this is pretty simple.
XML code for fade-in
<alpha fromAlpha="resource_id:0x0" duration="resource_id:0x10e0001" interpolator="resource_id:0x10a0005" toAlpha="resource_id:0x3f800000">
</alpha>
XML code for fadeout
<alpha fromAlpha="resource_id:0x3f800000" duration="resource_id:0x10e0001" interpolator="resource_id:0x10a0005" toAlpha="resource_id:0x0">
</alpha>
Awaiting reply. Thanks in advance.
That's a great topic. I don't care much for the fancy launchers full of complex customization. I just want the basic functions, and tw provides that. The home/appfolder switching has been bothering me. Would be great to make the transition quicker. Not sure I'd like it entirely removed though.

wow we are talking milliseconds here, your time really that precious?
Guys its not about milliseconds. Some would like transition and some just fast navigation. Tried all other launchers and they are good in their own ways but does'nt suit my taste and others who like touchwiz. Guys should i be moving this post to Galaxy Development.
Definitely interesting, but you should probably move this to the development forum.
I think you can turn off animations, in the TW settings, and I assume, that is the fade in, and fade out ?

13 January 2013 Tablet UI threads: Here, Here
AOSP - TABLETUI VIDEO
TW - TABLETUI VIDEO
03 JAN 2013 I finally was able to achieve TABLET UI for my XXLSC TW ROM with Unlimited Multiwindow Support just like in Note10.1.
****************************************************************************************************************************************
UPDATE: Some dev may have finally achieved a TW tablet UI...a screenshot here. That is only a screenshot and I have not seen working myself. We'll just have to wait and rely on the dev to release it for those who want such feature on their note.
Can you share patched android.policy.jar and services.jar. I was trying to patch them with help from 0jmaster0, and but since you already did that I can use them and give it a try and report back with findings.
Edit:Thanks xperiacle for sharing your efforts.

Nineteen downloads so far and no feedback. Although I don't know smali code, I have to research and learn a bit in a short span of time and based on my limited knowledge, there are two types of multiwindows: the one on the note1 & note2 and the one on note10.1 and the thing is all 3 devices share the same code but in that code is a conditional check to see if you are using a phone or a tablet based on the computation that barmulio specified in his thread (the check being done not only in windowmanager but also in multiwindowmanager), and when it detects that the device is a phablet/tablet (at least 600dp) the window manager sends signal to systemui to disable systembar which doesn't exist prior to 4.1.2. There could be a lot of other factors but so far that is what I discovered. I actually am enjoying this but it is a bit time consuming. It is a great learning process for me. Now if only molesarecoming can enlighten me about what makes ParanoidAndroid tick, then who knows what may come...I was hoping samsung would implement a PA-like configuration app/setting so we get to choose our preferred layout for multiwindow apps, then it would be awesome. I am sure samsung have more surprises to come based on the fragments of code and resources in its leaked JB ROM. So much time for a JB leak, I guess I'll just wait for the official release for now and enjoy the xmas season.

Nevertheless it is great that you ported this to note.
Could you explain step by step what has to be changed to switch phone mode regardless of dpi?
I tried to do this myself but stucked, then I saw you was faster and smarter.
Thanks.

That is good news if they manage to make it work. But that I believe is running at 160 dpi which may pose a usability problem for a lot of users - one is the text maybe too small to be readable for most. That is the same problem in the Nexus 7 forum, they can get tablet UI by lowering the density at the expense of readability (imagine that on a 5.3" screen like note1, try downloading the screenshot and view it on your screen) unless connected to a bigger screen, so barmulio's solution was achieving tablet UI without lowering density making text as readable as the stock density setting. Another thing I noticed about the screenshot posted is that there is no button for the traybar which controls the multiwindow layout for tablet UI which is the thing that I am trying to achieve by enabling the systembar but so far no luck. But I have achieved a working tablet UI for most apps (Youtube, Photoshop Touch, File Manager HD and other apps if such app has a tablet layout) except without the systembar but without lowering the density so text is as readable as the stock density setting. If an app has tablet layout, it will appear as tablet app, otherwise it will appear as phablet or phone UI. If you want floating multiwindow or the stock multiwindow, then it is easy to switch between the two. I am using it right now and trying to iron out the few misplaced layouts of important stock apps (mostly I replaced with PlayStore alternatives) and making it a usable daily driver. I may release it in the near future with all the working apps. That is enough info for now, some folks might get the idea and beat me to it, he he! Just kidding, sharing is great.

people tend to forget you can increase font size if its to hard to read. With Xperiacle ideas on tablet gui on stock dpi the minute buttons area should be solved.
This is cutting edge stuff. I just hope it wont diminish batterylife like Paranoid mods do for me.

Mate. As far as I remember there was a memeber (sorry if it turns to be you) still had the no and included a working systemui I can't recall who but it used to work even partially (not full width of screen).
Are you sure that the n8000 systemui doesnt work? It could be a patch you missed or something.
I will look into it at the holidays, and may e we can contact raj_ch200..... the guy with the 240 mod if he can be any help with this

Hi DAGr8,
I used your systemUI awhileback to achieve the desired tablet ui in ICS.
I have been searching your threads and can't find the post detailing how you patch the missing resources.
I have a little time at the moment and want to have a crack at it, the results of which I will post here.

Just thought I might share this experience for those who are foolish enough like me. You must understand I am not a developer but I love to tinker.
While most are busy porting apps, wallpapers, ringtones, etc from the Galaxy S4, I thought why don't I port the Galaxy Note 8 instead. So with a bunch of foolishness, I downloaded the Galaxy Note 8 N5100XXBMC9_N5100OXABMC8_DBT Firmware, extracted, deodexed and zipaligned it and copied all the system/apps and the system/frameworks & system/etc/permissions and a lot of system/lib files & /media and /fonts folder, packed it in a pre-made note1 rom, edited the build.prop and set lcd density to 213 (as this is the density that the note 8 is using) and flashed it thru recovery. Luckily it booted and reached the Setup screen showing some errors which I ignored and just went thru the whole setup wizard sometimes rebooting itself and going back to the setup screen again until I finally made it thru the google setup page and eventually the homescreen and greeted with a very nice wallpaper. At this point, the systemui is not working, nor does wifi but telephony works so does mms. Gallery, Video Player, Music Player, File Manager, Splanner with pefect fitting Calendar widget, Email, Alarm, World Clock, airview and some other extra apps - all working fine with few minor bugs. Calculator, Snote, Quick Command, screenshot not working.
So I immediately tried to activate multiwindows which is the feature I am after. Like the note1 and note2, just long pressing the back button activates the multiwindow bar. There are two modes to the multiwindow bar, dual mode and cascade mode. While the note 10.1 uses the systemui traybar to show multiwindow apps, the Note 8 uses the flashbar tray to launch multiwindow apps. There are some differences as you can see in the video.
There are a lot of work to be done for a full port specially the systemui and wifi. I am not sure which framework files or lib files are hardware related so I am not sure if it is worth the effort to make a full port at all. But I learned some things doing this foolish thing and might give others the courage to try things, to learn, to explore even in the face of failure. I am still as noob as when I started learning about android 4 months ago. There is so much to learn and I am having a great time being part of an open system and a great community like xda. I would say there is so much more to learn here than in school. For all the things I have learned in a span of 4 months here in xda, I would like to say THANK YOU.

In the meantime, I have uploaded the Note 8 Apps HERE for those who want to use it on stock note1 rom preferably at 213 Phablet or Tablet UI.
I believe we have a good dev here that can help you to port..hope so..:fingers-crossed:

"IF" and when I have a stable enough port of the Note 8 ROM, I will definitely SHARE it here in xda. At the moment it is pretty unstable and I am having second thoughts about it. Using it for a while, there is nothing really special about it except of course the multiwindow feature. It uses a mostly WHITE theme which is not good for battery life and eyesight. Apart from the new flashbar multiwindow, most Note 8 stock apps can run on stock JB note1 using 213 dpi like TW Launcher, Galllery, VideoPlayer, MMS, Email, Task Manager, Music Player, Splanner, Clock and Weather Widgets, File Manager, Awesome Note, Flipboard, Svoice, Chrome, etc. Gesturepad does not run but there are better alternatives on the PlayStore. Polaris Office tablet runs well on the port but on the stock note1 rom, it doesn't run probably because it is checking some signature. Readers hub now detects whether device is rooted or not and does not run on rooted roms. Snote tablet does not work but the Snote ported by arsaw for GS3 works well enough. As the systemui is not working I could not test the Reading Mode feature - it could be something that can be ported from android.policy. The rest are just minor stuff.
Talking about the multiwindow feature - the default uses the same native multiwindow as the stock multiwindow on the note1 and note2 which is the multiwindow feature shown on commercials and Note 8 review sites. But once you delete the com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml file in permissions folder, you will get multiwindow just like the one on the video I have shown which is better of course as apps can be maximised and restored to window mode back and forth - which is already available on note1 using my floating multiwindow and tablet ui mods.
What are your thoughts, Guys? What feature do you think is worth porting/using a Note 8 Rom?
P.S. I have uploaded the base ROM and it is very unstable at the moment but it lets you experience first hand what I have been talking about. It is only for those who know what they are doing. So if you are interested to try, send me a PM and I will share the link. But a BIG WARNING, I am not responsible for any damage that may result in flashing it. It uses Philz xxlsz 4.35 kernel which do not have the bootloop fix but it's the one I use because I dont get bootloops with it. As for the Note 8 stock apps for those who are using 213 phablet or tablet ui modes, I will upload them later.

Some updates...
I have managed to port fully working Snote with idea sketch with more features than the note2 snote app. Also comes with S Page widget. A better looking Quick Snote.
I also managed to port the keyboard with three layouts - qwerty, floating, split - and with awesome handwriting recognition using vision objects engine.
So far, Splanner with handwriting mode perfectly working with perfectly fitting widget on Homescreen at 213 dpi.
Polaris Office tablet working with some watermarks but can be hacked with smali edit I guess.
All ported apps will be shared once I finished pinpointing the necessary lib files.

Hi Xperiacle, this is great! I admire the SNOTE you provide.
Just noticed it's UI is clipped (undo redo arrows) and possibly other controls. Was not successful changing the DPI for this app, also no problem changing it for others. Any suggestion how to change it?
Also - don't you have additional languages for the hand writing recognition, particularly Czech?
Thanks a lot!
Is it possible just to get that keyboard?

As agreed I decided to open this topic to discuss new ideas for a custom ROM based on Stock 4.1.2, as none of the CyanogenMod can please many users, we will discuss ideas and features for the ROM, I will put my ideas here on the tread later.
My goal is make a fast and slim stock custom rom, with good features for everyone use most of her S3 mini, then everyone can give ideias to implement on this ROM
Ok idea 1.add Fly-On mod or something similar.
2.i think it should have xposed framework installed from the beginning. .as an option of course.
3. Quick settings like when you swipe the statusbar with two fingers ?

4 way reboot menu was "broken" with the theme S5, but using the gravity box with the reboot menu option everything is perfect, then the ROM will not get trouble at the end: D
Sounds great. Godd job
Ok give us a tester then jyn.
Btw:how about putting the pie control in there (forgot the name) like the Tokorom it's a great bit of kit and if you set it up it would be good for the first time user to get to the right apps and options.
LMT Launcher. .
Played with ROM's on my N2, got the N4 on opening day and have been busy ever since.
Just now slowing down enough to consider playing. I've tried a few of the newer ROM's and they are great. Especially like the OBAR. However visually I would like something similar to the Alliance ROM. Something with lots of choices of pre-made themes as well as the ability of granular tweaks to the theme. Unfortunately while it does boot I am having too many issues with it and a majority of themes do not even have a preview. Nor do a lot of the settings seem to work. (Yes I did flash the color fix.)
I'm on 5.1.1 COK1 (well Alliance is 5.0.1 but I'm headed back to OBAR)
Give me a head start, is there any framework, app or ROM that I should start looking at?
What are your suggestions...
Thanks in advance

I was searching for this theming options too... i like to be stock but really liked the note 5 and htc theming apps and official theme stores. They are deep and change the whole phone personality..

Yea i me either but it works well since Android 5.1 seems to be soo hard to theme.
xposed seem to be pretty stable but you will have to try out modules to your liking

well to give me these lil tweaks but you can do much more
the fan on the side is pie but the screen off gives me my crt off animation and more
