Disabling touchwiz in SG2? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder if the galaxy S method also works for the SG2. Has any SG2 owner tried it?:
Yes, I know there are alternative launchers, but I ask for the standard stock Android interface (and without needing to install anything from other phone).

No it defaults back and the standard home is not available.

No,if you want pure stock Android experience,Google Nexus series is what you are looking for.
Touchwiz/Sense all are default android launchers of Samsung & HTC.
No way you can get standard stock Android interface{although launcher pro & adw does a pretty good job}

No what i am saying is that if you have seen Nexus 1 & Nexus S video,both of these have a stock{not skinned} launchers..Although Nexus 1 was HTC & Nexus S was Samsung.
But then launcher pro,adw launcher all will run on SGS 2{or any other android smartphone},simply replace skinned touchwiz/sense UI with launcher pro/go launcher/adw

If you do get a SGS II you'll find that you'll love TW4 this is coming fron a guy who used to use launcher pro on sgs.
But fet the nexus s if you're wanting that desperately

i just want that flash lite 4 that only works with sense ui. Ugh.
Can any one tell me how to port htc sense in LG P500.
I have basic idea of using android custom rom kitchen, i have already tried so many thing but no success.Rom get installed easily but htc applications,widgets and sense does not work everything force closed...
pls help me of making a custom rom with htc sense for lg p500
I saw a post somewhere about the processor in the Optimus One. It does not support full flash and i think it does not support the flash from the sense rom.
HTC legend has the same processor as optimus one but it can support flash lite 4. Can someone port legend over to optimus one?
You'll need to port the Sense framework as well.
then just port the sense ui. if they can do it on nexus one, then I'm sure they can do it on OO.

sorry. noob question: how do I do that?
I have a paid version of Launcher Pro. But I cant seem to find that particular setting. (Or I dont know where to look)
There is a custom dock named like that. Search here on xda, you will find it.

Thanks. you are most kind.
and its totaly bull**** that lgs cpu is to slow to run flash , its adobes fault that they make it only support for newer cpus and not for the old ones.
i still hope that adobe see whats going around and that is a future with middel class phones too.

I want my phone to be faster and faster, Updates in my phone and make it smoother, and wait can i ask, do i need to jailbreak/ rooted my phone?
Can i have the link for the updates and tweaks?
Do what i do to all my friends gs3.
First root your phone. Then install any Jelly bean rom. I suggest omega 29.
You can find the how to on the posts here in the forum. Use the search.
For a fast gs3, most impotant thing. Change your launcher. Touchwiz is a memory eater i install nova for everyone.
Then disamble s voice. And be happy with lightning fast gs3
All my friends love what i do with theyre phones.

You don't have to uninstall TouchWiz launcher and infact you'll still keep TW features like swipe left or right shortcuts in your contacts/call log, etc. But all you need to do is install a new launcher from the Play Store and you will have the option to use as default if you want.
Nova is nice ..Holo is almost identicle but a little newer. Holo HD for Jelly Bean
If you want to improve your smartphone.. you have a lot of ways to do that. Google can help give you ideas but rooting in general opens the door to a lot of possibilities. Best bet is to take some time.. a lot if time and read about rooting, and apps that can extend the functionality of your device !
Oh and please post in the correct section. Questions belong in Q&A.

Awesome Note from Galaxy Note Tab 8.0

Just want to share this...great app, it's the only note app really needed for our phone! I know it has been out for a minute but just wanted to share with original Note users if they hadn't seen it yet.
http://dgrulesit.blogspot.com/2013/04/appapkgalaxy-note-80-awesome-note.html
As the name says, this is truly a awesome app. Been playing around with it for a bit and i can see how much more useful this is compared to the stock note taking apps.
Thanks for posting this.
It's a good APP for us, but just wonder we can install it to our phone directly? It looks I cann't install it to my 4.1.2 OS.

If your phone is rooted, I think the Padawan JB ROM has the option to add this app. You may want to double check the OP of that ROM
I tried this on my Note2 and the sizing is wrong. might need to change the dpi or something.
If rooted you can use Xposed installer and then per app dpi module.

AOSP vs Samsung ROM question.

Are any of the Touchwiz based Roms as fast and snappy as AOSP based ROMs?
I love AOSP speed but missing features keeps me going back to T/Wiz then lag sends me back to AOSP etc etc etc
Thanks
Phil
I was running for some time null rom, AOSP style but based on Samsung

I assume who has more does not matter, it matters for him what he wants and AOSP does not have Samsung's features.

Thanks for the replies, the main problem was not being able to post pics direct to forums I go on. I may have cracked this by using chrome rather than the aosp browser but I thought that with Firefox too and this no longer works.

Cyanogenmod issue need help !!!
i recently installed the Cyanogenmod 10.1 on my GT-I9305 but after the i realized that the old storage is gone "internal storage" so it says that i am using more than 50% from it even it's a clean install meaning the old data are still there and i am not able to see them , so i went to the recovery mode and the old files and date were there and a new folder with name (0) has the new apps and data , so the question here is how can i view the old data storage so i can move them to the new one , or to view them on my computer , i am new in XDA so i couldn't post it on the Cyanogenmod forum . thanks in advance
This is not I9305 forum .
Don't hijack threads with a totally different question

I actually don't mind the Samsung s planner and the music play. I have tried many alternatives of both, but still haven't found an alternative I like better.
Im all ears if you have any suggestions for alternatives to try

Personally , I am very happy with SlimBean (AOSP) as it delivers speed and gives me all features I want. The only thing I miss is the AllShare app for my AllShare Cast Dongle. Regarding camera, the AOSP 2.6 app gives most of the Samsung TW features, for Samsung S Planner, I use the stock Google Calendar App and for Music I use Poweramp, maybe try them, Poweramp got a free version as well.
