New FB App killed touchwizz - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just to share my expierence. After upgrading to latest FB app last night, tried to start app, but it said something like "on some android phones you must reboot in order to get all the icons". I rebooted and .... puffffff. Suddenly I got a millions of "Touch wizz unexpectedly stoped", but also for all many other apps. I couldt reach software menu for turn off the phone, so i must hold turn off button for about 10 secconds, in order to turn it off. After I left the phone off for whole night, somehow it worked and i could uninstall FB app, but only through market, not through settings-> applications->organize applications. I would like to know if someone else had same problems.

I downloaded the new facebook app also, but haven't had any FC's since. The only change that I've noticed is that it adds 2 separate apps to the app drawer (camera, messenger). I'm unable to access the front camera on my phone using facebook's app though.

(Request or help)Stock Android lockscreen with sms notification

Is there any way to get an sms preview or notification for the stock android lockscreen on stock vibrant froyo. I flashed the mod where I have an option to change my lockscreen between 4 choices. Im using the stock android one and want to change the volume slider into the sms slider when I have an sms waiting. A preview would be nice also if possible? Someone please help or guide me to do this.Thank you

I use an apk called Flyscreen that has a lock screen with SMS. It also can show you your Gmail, Face book, email, weather,etc.

Widget Locker keeps the stock android look, you can create a slider for just about anything, and if you use something like Handcent or GO SMS you can also place the widgets from those apps on the lock screen.

I just want to change the arrow thing to take me directly into sms app when there is a sms. I really dont like the app screenlock changers, theyre slow. otherwise goto is a great app. and I use stock android.

Anyone else with ideas? I've not switched launchers for a while!

Looks to me like it's a system or data file that has ended up on your screen as a shortcut.
It shoudn't be there and it's not an app you can launch so when you click on it TW gets confused as it doesn't know what to do with it.
Just remove the shortcut from your screen, it's nothing to worry about and deleting the shortcut wont remove the file
update: Have you installed a Samsung Olympics app from the play store lately? If so it is a data file from that app.
Delete the shortcut like I said and you'll be fine. If you're experiences issues delete the Olympics app and re-install
i believe thats a previous app you just uninstalled.. that icons appears on touchwiz when you uninstall something..

Cool App--LMT

I'm not sure if anyone else has tried it, but LMT launcher (not really a launcher) DOES work on the DX2!! Only setback I've found so far is that "slices" used for app launching, literally show up as "app". This is fine for me though, because I'm just using it for toggles, and those icons are showing up--at least on CM7--I haven't tried it on anything else.
If what I've said confuses the mind, here are a few informative links!

This app would be perfect if I could figure out how to launch the stock task switcher from the pie. The task switcher button wouldn't work, and I have tried keying longpress of the soft home to trigger recent apps, but no luck. Long press of the search button (to trigger voice search) worked great.
Its a pretty cool idea. And it matches the browser quick controls so I like the consistency. I tried it out on my phone for a little while but ended up disabling it. I have so many ways already to quickly launch apps and get into settings etc. lol.
About the app icons, if you go into the settings and scroll all the way down, there is an option that says "Show app images". Set that to 1
funny..... in the youtube video you link, it shows how to make the app icon show up. just sayin. you made it sound like it didnt/wouldnt work or something.

ok, i can't understand a lot of things...for example, why in the first log i have a wakelock of 2.3% by alarm manager and the phone for the 100% of time is awake..note that i use greenify with all my apps, the only ones that are not hybernated are whatsapp, nova launcher and swype keyboard..gtalk is frozen..how do i have to read the alarms reported by bbs? i know that they happens sometimes, like 100 times but, for how long does they make the phone awake? i don't know if i expressed myself correctly, thanks to all for the attention

Tonight I disabled WiFi data and sync and hybernated every app including launcher whatsapp etc.
Telephone wl is disappeared but alarm manager still pops up...

Greenify hides programs that wake the phone, in this case it was whatsapp with 9% of wakelock...hope this will help someone...

[APP] Multi Window Manager (Phone)

I just finished updating this for Kit Kat, so I figured I'd post it now that there are a few ways of getting 4.4 on our Verizon S4's.
It's your typical "enable multi-window for any app" app with a few extra bells and whistles for the donate version. I don't really like mods that enable every single app because it gets messy and lags the tray out pretty bad, so I made this to let you pick and choose which ones to enable. This is still a WIP, so feel free to give suggestions / bug reports.
Create shortcuts to launch 2 apps in windowed mode at the same time
Create shortcuts to launch any app in windowed mode...the point of this being that it allows you to use 3rd party side bar launchers such as GloveBox, SwipePad, etc. in place of the stock flashbar
Launch 2 instances of the same app...some apps don't work. most browsers don't (4.4 samsung browser does by default)
Backup/Restore your enabled apps list
Auto enable newly installed apps
Inverted (Black) flashbar theme
Remove icon labels from the flashbar
