Re: Any one gonna stick with the new Touchwiz? or you switching to a launcher?

I'm sticking with the default launcher. Keep going back and forth between the default "grace" touchwiz theme which I actually like quite a bit and a stock android "material design" theme.

I tried it for a while, and it wasn't bad, but it finally felt like the awesome phone that it has the potential to be when I fired up nova luancher prime and restored my settings. There are just too many little tweaks and features in Nova for TouchWiz to even feel like a viable option, honestly.

I can't wait till there are some dark themes out. I switch to a dark theme at night. I would love to have the default UI, just in a dark theme option. I hope someone will work on this. So far, I'm really happy with stock TouchWiz. I would have never imagined it was possible for me. Lol

I'm playing with a trial of this dark theme.

I used the stock launcher for half a day. I think it is fine, and the themes are very nice. However, a few things sent me back to Nova. The icon packs don't have icons for very common third party apps, like gmail. The big screen screams for reduced size icons and more grid options. You lose almost nothing by moving to a more complete launcher, and gain so much.

I'm sticking with TW. It's been good for me so far.

Even though this version of TouchWiz isnt too bad, its still lacking in a number of little tweaks so I'm back to using Apex

I ran into trouble using Google Now Launcher. Worked fine for the first night and the bam.....no apps in my app drawer!! Craziest thing so I uninstalled and re-installed and no go, blank app drawer. This phone barley got a cpl hours of use so clearing caches and factory restores are simply not going to happen thats ridiculous! Doing just a little research it seems that this is a known compatibility issue between KNOX and GNL......lovely.

I am a big fan of GNL so this is a real bummer. I love swiping into Google Now so I went with Nova Prime. I have had NP bookmarked for a long time but never installed and ran it. Well today that has changed and so far so good. The gestures with NP are awesome!

Zero issues with TouchWiz and have always used it but decided to live a crazy life and started using Nova.

I haven't had a problem with TouchWiz for a few years now. I just download different themes and icon packs and it's fine.

I'm still on TouchWiz for the moment, I always like messing with the phones in stock form for a few days to see what I think of it. But nova is installed and ready to go as soon as I decide to set it up. I did ditch the stock keyboard for SwiftKey within an hour. The stock one is night and day over my old S5/Note 4 but SwiftKey is where it's at
