Nope. Sorry but there are so many differences between ssLauncher and Total launcher and it is almost impossible to implement it.

There are 3 ways to open the menu screen:
- pinch-in gesture on any page.

7. How to show the badge count on app icon?
You have some options in the badge count section of the launcher options.
There are 3 options to make it get notifications.
- Notifications: It will let you enable Total launcher to make it access notifications. It delivers the notification messages from the status bar to the proper app icon on layouts, app drawer and app group. Since the count retrieved from the notifications, it might not be accurate generally.
- Unread Gmails: It will count unread emails directly from Gmail inbox. You should allow some permissions to make it work. This shows the accurate count on Gmail app even when "Notifications" is turned off.
- Third party APIs: Some apps support unofficial badge counts APIs (Android framework defines no API for badge count at all). These API was defined differently by device manufacturers or famous 3rd party launchers (such as ADW launcher). A few apps and stock apps support these APIs.
8. Why are the permissions required so much?
9. Is there any way to reduce used RAM?
The amount of used memory (RAM) depends on how many images and widgets (especially 3rd party widgets) you are using. The more images and widgets require the more memory.
