Is there a way to get the stock gallery app that came with my Attic back while keeping the Gladiatrix rom? I like the rom, but this gallery (same as what I had on my Nexus One) drives me crazy. I don't like the UI of it, basically.
Thanks
+1 def like the blur gallery and want it back.

Hey guys I'm running Bionix V right now but I'm going to update to V 1.2.1.
So I'm wondering what the differences are between the 'Gingerbread' and the 'Touchwiz' editions? And in your opinions which is better and why?
I would just flash both of them to find out myself but I hate having to import my contacts, apps, sms/mms, and other things individually everytime. Unless you know of an app that makes it quick and easy to do all at once.
If someone could explain the differences I think I could make the right choice the first time
Thanks
Edit:
Also I've been hearing good/maybe bad things about V 1.2.1
Should users upgrade or stay with V? I'll keep you posted when I upgrade I've been a little busy lately
The difference is how the phone looks. When you hit the home button, your desktop, or launcher, has icons, widgets, etc.
The gingerbread one looks like standard, non themed gingerbread.
TouchWiz looks more like your vibrant did out of the box. I personally find it incredibly ugly so I prefer the gingerbread theme.

Can you still use launcherpro with the gingerbread version?

Yes you can use any home launcher you choose

Yes, I have been. I really don't think it matters which one you install if you're planning on installing a 3rd party launcher, anyway.

Oh really the only difference between the touchwiz and gingerbread is the launcher?
And how customizable are each of them and maybe I wouldn't need a third party launcher?

The only advantage I can think of for using touchwiz is that it comes with the Samsung apps installed as well.

That's what I want to get rid of. All the apps like mobileTV, amazon, kindle, all the bloatware.
So gingerbread is the way I should go?

I'm not sure if it comes with the bloatware, but it would come with the Samsung widgets that are available using TouchWiz. (One example is the "Friends" widget that updates facebook and twitter)
But if you're planning on using LauncherPro or any other launcher, all of this is moot anyway. I'd recommend the Gingerbread version because I like the notification bar and stock android is so much better looking than TouchWiz in every aspect.
EDIT: You asked earlier how to import contacts and things; you should sync them with Google as it makes the transition between ROMs seamless. Also, Titanium Backup can backup and restore all of your apps and data. (This excludes SMS). Finally, I use SMS backup to backup all of my texts/MMS to gmail for safekeeping
Thanks wearmaize
I'll go with gingerbread. I use sms and titanium backup they work great.
But last time I synced with google it didn't save all my contacts when I flashed so I don't know if somethings wrong or I'm doing it wrong

I have been hearing conflicting posts about the new Bionix version...I think i'll just stick with V

Next time you sync with google, check your contacts online using a computer to make sure they're all there.
As for Bionix, I'd recommend v 1.2 or v 1.2.1. I find v 1.2 to be the most stable, but I've only been on v 1.2.1 for a day so I can't really say for sure. Both are great.

Bionix 1.2.1 is nice, worthile upgrading I can see
Since we can't get the MIUI Rom because the bootloader is locked. How hard would it be to make a theme for it?

You could use adw and there is a miui theme on the market that looks very well done. Also many miui Widgets etc on market. My sexy nexy screen look the same as the pics on the market when I used miui.
From there just mess with settings to ur taste like hide dock bar etc. Then painstakingly arrange all apps on the screen, just like miui the first time ^_^, and backup settings and screen arrangements in adw settings

oooh thanks. So it deletes everything on my internal SD? So I just need to backup my photos and apps to my external SD?
I'd backup JIC but it didn't for me. Turn off fingerprint unlock till ur set up to avoid issues later ...heard it helps. I'm on greyblur and use adw paid version. It was definitely worth it, and I'm a cheap skate ^_^ coming from nexus and all it's great dev love, I wanted all the options it gives. Screen transitions etc.
Didn't touch my webtop that I customized either ^_°

Hey all, whenever I would open an app from the drawer and then hit back to go to the drawer again, the scrolling would be horrible. I noticed that the lag went away when I deleted my HTC peep app. I guess what I'm trying to ask is if anyone else has had their app drawer become laggy as hell with peep installed.

What ROM are you on? I've use Peep and I've never had any form of lag since I've had the device. I'm on any new SteelROM. It may not be the app, but the ROM. Make a nandroid, install a different ROM, do the same thing you did to make the ROM your on lag, and see if you have the same problem.
I'm on stock 2.3.4. The funny thing is that I used to use Steelrom and that's when I first noticed the lag (peep was kept on that ROM). So when i went to stock everything was fine for a few hours till it lagged again. I noticed that as soon as I deleted peep my lag went away

Has anyone else tried this calendar app for the note? I like it because it offers a similar calendar widget to to stock touchwiz widget for those of us on custom ROMS. Tried to insert screenshot, but says its no longer working.

I used it in the past, works really well. But, if you're looking for something closer to stock, you might want to check out CalWidget, that's what I use now. It links directly to your stock calendar and has a great mini-agenda. =)

Have been using Jorte since I lost the stock Calender and love it..The full page widget is my favourite! Black theme and adjustable transparency..I wouldn't. go back to stock if I could...
Did I mention its free?
Well, if you all haven't noticed, the Samsung video player is ugly. The big buttons are annoying, and the grey blue theme is ugly. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the AOsP video player onto my S4. Thanks!
It is in the stock gallery app. Here ya go! https://www.dropbox.com/s/aapxe0711jqjv7w/GalleryGoogle.apk
