[MORPH] Naked TouchWiz App Menu 8/3/10

[bahnburner]

This was created for the Vibrant, but I see no reason why it would not be compatible with the Captivate. Enjoy.

This Metamorph will remove the colored tiles from the TouchWiz3.0 app menu. Make sure you are using the latest version of Metamorph (1.9.13 or higher). I'm not responsible for anything you do to your phone.

WARNING:
You will have to reset your homescreen widgets after applying this morph. Not sure why, but they will all pop up with the "Problem loading widget" image.

To revert back to stock TouchWiz3.0 app menu, apply this morph:

Worked fine on my captivate. Have not noticed any side effects so far. I really hated those damn backgrounds and am so happy they are gone.

Thanks for the post.

awesome. Thanks.

How do you reset the homescreen icons?

 

[bahnburner]

What do you mean? Are you trying to go back to stock?

If you're talking about the widgets. Just drag them to the trash and re-apply them if you get the "Problem loading Widget" box.

 

[flashman2002]

No I want to use them. I was going based on what you said here.

I loaded them in morph and don't know how to reset my homescreen widgets. I don't have any samsung widgets so I am not sure if it would be something in there.

I guess I am doing something wrong. I thought that was part of the process because I loaded the zip in morph and my backgrounds didn't change. I didn't see the apply all button. It is all good. I guess I am used to things loading after clicking the one button. Still new to android lol.

This is exactly what I was looking for, but I can't get it to work with metamorph. The error is the following:

"The theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could be missing, or is not correctly written (contact theme creator)."


My metamorph version 1.9.8.14

Select "Pick existing theme" navigate to the EVO_Blackbar folder (Should be in /sdcard/AndroidThemes/ and select EVO_Blackbar_v1.3.xml. It should work. If you downloaded it from your phone, the names get messed up and cause that problem.

Is there any way to add the backgrounds to another launcher? Like Launcher Pro or ADW or something?

I love the uniformity and the aesthetics of the nice uniform grid.

There are still some stock apps with tiles behind them. Is it possible to remove those as well?

OO I like this theme, may have to try it out when I get home. I'm one of the few people who actually likes touchwiz, makes it feel more familiar (I came from an iphone 3gs)

Not trying to thread jack or anything but I see everyone including major reviews complaining about touchwiz. Whats so bad and different about it compared to stock android. What are somethings you would recommend I changed to stock for?

I know our menu system is slide right or list instead of pull up.
(I like it better that way cause you can customize it)

We have the 3 customizable of 4 buttons on the bottom of the screen.
(Better use of real estate)

Our system and menu is black with white highlight but doesn't it make more sense considering the display and black using less battery.
(saves battery/ I modded my whole system to black menus pull downs and such)

And finally the backgrounds on Icons.
(At least its uniform, have you seen some of the ugly Icons people make)

Froyo compatibility

For what it's worth, I morphed this over Cognition 2.2 beta 5.5 and it seems to have worked just fine. I'm not sure if anything else has changed, but I've gotten rid of those ugly tiles I imagine it would work for any of the JI6 ROMs....

Installed on stock JH7, works just fine.

You get 3 icons instead of Four (or even five).

That's the big problem I have with TouchWiz... I can't put Phone, Messaging, Email and Browser in the dock.
