Removing elements of TouchWiz

---

I am keen to remove the redundant settings in the TouchWiz taskbar - you know, the brightness settings and toggle switches.

From the logic of previous android devices, these settings are an app running in the background. I suspect the app is CP Message. Can anyone confirm this?

Oh man i cant tell you how badly i would love to get rid of the brightness toggle when sliding my finger over the notification bar. it is my most hated feature of these devices. Unfortunitely it is still prevalent even with touchwiz removed.

someone should make a work around, put it in the market, charge $5 and make a living off sales forever.

unfortuniely i havent been able to find any accounts where people have been able to remove it or some of the other redundent touchwiz features.

Why not try switch to a new launcher app, like ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro?

As you probably know, because custom launchers dont modify the taskbar. For that you would need a custom rom.

So far it appears as though custom roms are not replacing the taskbar though. Which makes me one sad camper.

So far there are no custom roms.

What would you call any of the roms that are posted at these forums? Why wouldn't they be called "custom roms"

I would call them roms for devices that are not the galaxy tab.

These particular subforums currently have have no custom roms.

If you want to be the first to make one, I and many others will be suitably impressed

bump - please move to development shr

So, you know, um, set Brightness to "auto" in Sound and Display and that locks the notification bar invisible slide to brightness feature.

I will say that the TouchWiz notification bar tweaks are one of the big selling points of TouchWiz for a lot of people. No accounting for taste, I reckon.
