Root TouchWiz Launcher?

i used launcher pro, with 5 icons, and the touchwiz CM7 theme.

then i set the screen res to 140 ppi in build prop

then I used spare parts to enlarge the fonts while keeping icons smallish and sharp. so its not hard to read.

then set 5 icons for rows and columns in launcher pro

BAM! galaxy note style!

I have not found a decent 4 icon style launcher that is anywhere as fast and smooth as launcher pro.

there is a ADW fork called ADW-miui that has a REAL 4 icon launcher, but like ALL ADW launcher apps, it lags between homescreens and generally feels slow. so sad.


right now i moved my entire UI over to motorblur style (gingerblur cm7 theme) and launcher pro using a Atrix 4G style dock image. its neat too.
