any chance one of you can add multi launcher option (oxygen + pixel launcher) in the custom rom for android 12. i know so many don't like the pixel because it does not give you much customization (for me home screen only layout for example). so if it's possible we would love to have multi options.
NOTE: i tried other launchers after installing the rom and they don't work well.

Hi All!
I recently sold my S2 to a friend who is coming from a broken iPhone 4.
He had his iPhone 4 jailbreak'd, and he requires the following tweaks in the "android" world:
iPhone 4 Tweak:
SpringFlash - a tweak that allows an assignment of a gesture or physical button to activate the iPhone's camera's flash as a flashlight - in his case, he would press down iPhone's power button and the flashlight will turn on/off. Now, for his Galaxy S2, he currently installed Market (Google Play) App- a flashlight widget , however, he wants to know if he can assign a gesture or physical button to activate that on his android phone ?
InfiniteDock - a tweak that allows dock icons, to infinitely scroll left or right, adding applications/folders - on the S2, he has the stock icons (phone, message, e-mail and internet -- or whatever he assigns too) ... now, I was looking into some launchers ... Launcher Pro, Go Launcher ... which one would you guys recommend ?
Just as an FYI, he currently has CheckROM V4 installed, I believe that is at Android version 2.3.6 or 2.3.7 - - CheckROM is now updated to V6, but I still think it is still Gingerbread based build, correct me if I am wrong.
He is thinking about going to either Lightn' Rom (which the latest is based on Android 4.0.4) or the CheckROM V6 ... Please advice which ROM and tweaks he should go for that incorporates the iPhone tweaks he is looking for ...
Thanks!
Install any custom launcher like go launcher, adw launcher.(launcher pro is outdated)
1. use the swype gestures to turn on torch
2.same launcher has option to infinite scrolling in dock
do post the question in Q & A section next time
Thanks...
Thanks, I'll look into it.
the resurrection remix (currently at 1.7) allows you to set up 'long press power while on the lockscreen' and get a flashlight
and most launchers can use scrolling docks - im using a program called simifolder widget - it gives iphone style folders anywhere, so setup about 20 apps for a folder and in the dock bar click it and get a nice scrollable popup
use apex launcher pro it has swipe gestures

If you would have read the OP carefully you would find out that his friend is running gingerbread and he can't install Apex.
He can also add some toggles to the notification bar if he don't have them.

Hi Again,
I actually helped him upgrade to 4.0.4 (custom OMEGA rom).
We are using APEX launcher, and he is fairly happy with it. Prior to reading the forum, I didn't know about the remix ROM able to have the delay-touch gesture of the power button...I was wondering if that is available on the OMEGA ROM - Black Blue ICS Theme v11.1 or v11.2 (something).
Thanks!
P.S. what is the technical term behind the resurrection remix's rom feature - "set up long press power while on the lockscreen" function? is it common among android custom-based ROMs?
My phone is an Alcatel OT 6040A.
Custom ROM's with UI tweaks are almost impossible to come by. The best stable ROM I have found with somewhat great UI customization is SlimCat_v2.1 however it doesn't support very many awesome themes with the Nova launcher it comes with. All of my UI tweaks are through XPOSED mudules.
My question is what launcher is the best for themes/customization and performance between Go and Next?
I'm willing to pay if I have to.
Anyone? Please
Hello guys,
I've been using aosp based roms for a while now and I loved the swipe up gesture, with that little bar where you pull it up to open recents, click to go home and there's this little back button also, best navigation system I have ever seen for a smartphone, way better than the full gesture of the MIUI EU.
The thing is, for as much as I love roms, Poco ones are way behind MIUI on performance and that game tools app on the latest MIUIs is a killer.
Anyway, is there a port from somewhere to use that navigation system on MIUI, excluding those idiotic apps from the Play Store?
Thank you very much!

I guess this should work for you
Hello lovely community,
I'm getting sick and tired of the stock MIUI launcher. I want something more simple, but the big issue for me, is the ability to use gestures.
I've tried third party launcher along side Fluid Navigation Gestures app, but I don't think it's smooth enough. And it's unrealiable, because the app might crash at some point.
My question is: what's the best solution to this problem?
I am willing to install a custom rom, in case that solves the problem.
This rom is very good.

So I guess that another rom fixes the problem? Are you able to use third party launcher along side with gestures and no navigation bar?
Also, have you noticed any bugs? I've tried other Roms before, I just want something that is somewhat stable. Not too many bugs.

Maybe you would like to try Neo Launcher. It's part of the foss Neo applications suite, and with a very active development.
You can find it in git-hub, F-Droid, its Telegram group...

I was actually hoping to do Niagara or something in that direction.
Does Neo Launcher provide gestures or does it work with the one MIUI offers?
I'm just looking for the best option for Gesture navigation + third party launcher.
Yes it includes gesture navigation and they work, but I've not fully tested all of them.
IMHO you should give a try k no need to install anything)
Ended up installing Pixel Experience Plus and it worked like a charm. Now I use Niagara with system gestures.
Positive experience! Haven't had any issues so far, and the rom seems to have much more to offer than MIUI.
This phone would have been insane with a decent OS. Such a shame that MIUI is so crappy.

Tried out your solution, but it didn't integrate with the built in gestures. As soon as I install the launcher, it will turn on button navigation and I cannot enable gestures.

If you wish you could provide feedback here https://t.me/neo_launcher
It's under development and community built
I know it isn't for everyone, but I really like some of the UI of MIUI - specifically the app switcher which operates vertically and displays two apps side by side.
Has anyone come across an app or launcher which offers the same app-switcher experience as MIUI on no-Xiaomi devices? Or even a complete MIUI theme? (OxygenOS,OnePlus 7 Pro)
Thanks
Hi, maybe it's possible. First your phone should be rooted and you should install miui module on it. Then you can download miui apps and run it on your custom roms.
