Port Samsung-Apps to CM9? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

any way to port any of the Touchwiz frameworked apps (such as the dialer and contacts, or the clock) to work with Cyanogenmod9? I love CM9 but I miss the smartalarm clock and the contacts apps with swipe left/right to call and message. I tried rocketdial but i dont particularly like it.

is there a different phone.apk ?

hi all
im playing with cm7
its awesome - bit faster than kj2
but i loved the functionally of the phone app in touchwiz
slide the contact to call or message , search bar on top instead of having to click through options etc
is there a way to get the phone apk .. i heard it relies on the TW framework
if so
then is there another phone apk i can use ?
thanks
The TW dialer will not work with CM. Look for dialer's in the Market instead. There are several choices.
E.g. Touchpal or Dialer One.
Touchpal:

[Q] Google Search Bar: AOKP vs Other ICS ROMs?

So, I have mostly been running Fenny's AOKP ICS ROM and really like how the Google search is setup. On other ROMS it seems to be only one pane and not aligned the same. Is there a way to get the same search bar on another ROM or is the way the bar is setup in the framework of AOKP?

Extract Trebuchet launcher from AOKP/CM9 and it'll be there.
Ah, so it is the launcher doing that.

[Q] Any stock ICS themed ROM with CM9 dialler? [with T-9 functionality]

Hi All,
I am currently running CM9. But, am facing a few issues. So, was thinking of going back to stock ROM for a while. I love the AOSP look and love the CM9 dialer.
Almost all the stock based themed ROM's are having a themed stock dialer.
[ which doesn't even have contacts list inside, it is very annoying !! ]..
Some ROM's, I see are having AOSP dialler, but it doesn't have the CM9 functionalities, in particular Smart T9 dialler.
In addition, the stock call animation is present. [v.v.ugly].
The AOSP / CM9 call animation is so much better.
Sorry, if this feels as if I am hating on touchwiz, but take this as my opinion and not a fact. [ I love some touchwiz features, which I am not getting in CM9].
I know that earlier the Resurrection ROM was having CM9 dialer, but westcrip seems to have moved on to AOKP ..
So, please help me find out any ICS themed stock ROM, with CM9 dialer like functionality.
this is not a ROM suggestion but...
You can try an app called exDialer and download the ICS theme for it. It looks a lot like the CM9 dialer and has the T9 dialer.

Thanks for the suggestion. But, I prefer using the stock one instead of third party applications. [ Have seen that the stock application , keeps on using the memory, under the system application, and I understand that it is a bigger problem on my older phone, SGS, which had .v.little memory. ]
But still would prefer the stock.

[Q] Incoming calls / Dialer

Is it possible in a non CM9 rom ( not sure if the dailer / incoming call screen is a feature of CM9 or AOSP. ) to add those screens? I love the big image on Cm9 when you get an incoming call, and the same for outgoing calls, however, I'd love to be able to get the S-Pen support too and really, that's the only Cm9 Feature i'm missing when I go back to the more stock roms..

It's the asop dialer and I was looking for the same but found that no one has been able to port that to stock roms for any device. It seems hard coded to the Samsung framework.
@Galaxy Note™…

Bummer... That's the gem I love. I know there are things on the play store and i've bought 2 diffrent ones, but in the end they are quirky at best...
Thanks for the reply

U r right.
None of the third party apps works well
While I haven't used it much yet, Ultimate Call Screen looks pretty good. There's a free demo version. Has a lot of features and high resolution pictures look incredible on it. It's working well so far on the Perfection ICS rom I'm running.
I flashed the AKOP dialer to my ICS phone, it works for a day then it just starts FC'ing every time. I wish someone would port it, UCS works perfect for caller ID pics, but I really like the contact section of the AKOP dialer a lot better than the ugly Touchwiz one.

Replacing CM7 lockscreens?

hello i know cm7 has a few lockscreens and many options but i dont like any of them! and the ones i do like give a really laggy slow animation when the icons zoom in at you...
im just wondering if theres any mods around that give me a few better options? i do like the MIUI lockscreen where you drag from the centre to either up down left or right to a different app each time, id love this if i could find it! iv tried it on MIlocker but its laggy and buggy as hell lol
can anyone link me to some new lockscreens that will work on my atrix? (cm 7.2 MROM)
thanks! :fingers-crossed:
There are many lockscreen apps available on Google Play. I've also seen some non-MIUI ROMs (can't remember which ones though) that have MIUI lockscreen added, so clearly that's possible too.

yeah iv tried a few and they all seem very laggy mainly because there apps and not built into the software, im guessing anyway :silly:
the only one iv tried that fast is holo locker, but im just really looking for one thats not an app and is flashable so its intergrated into the actuall rom

You can't do that. The default system lockscreen is deeply integrated with the core framework. That means not only you'd need a different flashable ZIP for each and every ROM out there, you'd need a different ZIP even for different versions of the same ROM.

okay i understand thank you.
Holo Locker is a good lockscreen replacement. You can also disable de built-in lockscreen from CM7.
Go to Cyanogenmod Configs > Tablet > Disable lockscreen

well, as ravilov stated, we cant "flash" a different lockscreen since its buried inside the framework, but i did once use a beautifull and FULLY customisable lockscreen that was and actually have an options to stick in memory, so triggering the 3rd party lockscreen is flawless and fluid as hell ! only cons : its a payable app !
Its called Widget locker -> go take a look on the market (every slider style is customisable from MIUI style to Sense to IOS
Google play store link to widget locker
