I also own a Nexus 7, and I recently flashed a ROM (see link below if you own an N7) with the coolest animations (in/out) that I've ever seen on an Android device. I was able to create a flashable zip (tested on TWRP by myself, and confirmed working on CWM by multiple users) using the VillainTheme method that successfully adds these animations to the framework on our S4's. It should also work on any other device running 4.2.2, but I have only tested it on the S4.

EDIT: Here is a demo of the animations in action. Thanks to @123hiten for the video!


If you don't like them, download the restore zip below to restore your framework to its original state immediately prior to flashing this mod.

Installation Instructions
* Download the zip file: Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port
* Flash with TWRP
* Reboot
* Enjoy your new window animations!

Uninstall/Restore Instructions
* Download the framework restore zip file.
* Flash with TWRP
* Reboot
* You should now be back to your original framework that you had (any prior mods/edits included) prior to flashing the animations mod.

NOTE: I am not a developer, and in no way do I take credit for the animations themselves...I also obtained permission from the original ROM dev before sharing. See "Credits" below for links to the original developers' work that made this possible.

Is it possible to get this for the s3? My gf has one and absolutely loves these animations.

It should work on any device, although I haven't been able to test it on any Android version lower than 4.2.2. I didn't tweak anything in the animations themselves when I pulled them from the N7 framework, so the fact that it's working on TouchWiz at all should be a good indicator of its universal compatibility :)

And honestly I'm not even 100% sure that it HAS to be 4.2.2 (not sure if source has been released yet for the S3?)...as I said, I have no way of testing it on any lower versions so I didn't want to attest to it working on anything else. Worst case scenario and she bootloops, just flash the framework restore zip in the OP and she'll be right as rain :good:

Thanks for sharing this. I was a little bored with touchjiz launcher so I tried the cloned Windows launcher from the market and it blends really well. :good: . Really mimics like a Nokia lumia. ..

So, before installing the CrossBreeder mod, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150
I was saying, okay, it does something, sometimes, but now it is way cool.
Guess CrossBreeder kicked my phone in the ass!

I would think so, as it was taken from an AOSP-based ROM to begin with :)
Good point. I figure it would. Just didn't know if this zip was repackage differently to work on touchwiz. I'm thinking about flashing rootbox soon. Just love touchwiz as it is. And the camera is the best

Good question, but nope it shouldn't make a difference. In fact, I flashed the exact same zip on PA 3.6 on my N7, and it worked perfectly :)

And I'm with you on TouchWiz man, it's amazing how far the amazing devs on here have taken it - it's gotten to the point that pretty much every aesthetic reason for me wanting to stick with AOSP on my old Note has now been implemented on TouchWiz - so I run nothing but that now on my S4.
