I'm wanting to port Honeycomb 3.1 simply because of the whole Touchwiz UX UI... Would it be possible? And if so who's willing to help? And If it isn't is there a way I can port the TouchwizUX launcher to our devices running ics?
Well, I and bobrien made a port (not so good) of TouchWiz UX for the Amazon Kindle Fire here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590246
It's kinda' laggy and only works with the DPI of 120(on the Kindle Fire), but it is working on CM9/ICS. Try if it works!
What version of Galaxy Player are you talking about? (4.0 or 5.0).
And about Honeycomb, well, there a problem with source code, Google did release the code for HoneyComb, but only when ICS had came out, so most devs skiped Honeycomb, like Cyanogen (no CM8) .
It's not impossible, but as long as ICS is still in work, I don't think HoneyComb will be on Galaxy Player!
Update: Not working with 190 DPI on Phone UI CM9/AOKP Rom, changing it to 120 or use the Tablet UI may work it out!

Try DPI 132 instead, it works on Motorola Xoom with this DPI, or look into the XML, maybe something it's in there telling you what's the condition for it to run.
There shouldn't be problem with JUST the launcher, but if you want the whole TouchWiz, you have to port the ROM then since TouchWiz runs on framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk.
Changing the device may do some harm to your device, so BACKUP before doing this, unfortunately I let my friend borrowed my Player, or I would have help!
The standard DPI on the AOKP Tablet UI Rom is 120
The right DPI for Tablet UI on GP 5.0 is 128 I believe.

Go into the AndroidManifest file in the apk, there should be a condition for it to run in that file, custom the Player to that condition and you're good to go!
Remember that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 wasn't shipped with TouchWiz UX at first, so there isn't any standard for TouchWiz.

I didn't see anything. What exactly am I looking for? Could you take a look at the files and point me to what I need to change? and when I tried to edit the file it wouldn't let me. I'm using root explorer. It allows me to extract the manifest file but I can't put it back in the original launcher file :/ help please.

Hey, just took another look at the xml files and it seems Galaxy Player CANNOT be compatible with TouchWiz UX using ANY Rom!
Why? It requires a xlarge screen, which we don't have, tablets (for real) like the Fire and the Xoom have an xlarge screen.
So it can't be running! UNLESS Somebody Port it to a medium-large screen (not really sure what we have, will take another look) OR Mod it to this screen (won't look real though)!

I was looking for ways to get s memo to show up right at 240 dpi and came across this thread in the international Note forum which showed how to edit the smemo.apk to work at 240 dpi so you don't get cross hatched background. I started working on it but I realized someone already made one here. This one is the s memo in the leaked S Note, S Memo from the to be released premium suite from the Chinese rom leak posted on numerous developer threads.
I tried every single way imaginable but just can't get the S note to work. S memo works fine. It looks like the same S-Memo as our att ics leak.
If someone can try to get the S Note to work will be awesome. I posted the link of all the files in my dropbox. Some threads say if you copy all the below 4 leaked files and set permission correctly, SNote should work. Some say you need complete stock theme form the leaked ICS. I tried the revert from Alpha II, and Snote don't work. I haven't gone as far as complete reflash alpha 2 since I'm too lazy. Maybe some mastermind can get S Note to work.
For instructions on how to make custom DPI of your choice see first link above. FYI: the double s pen tab S-memo widget works but saved file is still messed up once you try to few it.

I know that there are new leaks coming out every day (some real, some not).
But I need a ROM that is Jelly Bean but without the Touchwiz.
I know there is SuperNexus but that has Memory Leaks.
Anyone know of one? Please no time wasters..
I'm gonna be honest with you.
Jelly Bean without touchwiz sounds like you wanna look in the AOSP direction. However, there's no AOSP Jellybean ROM today that hasn't got memory leaks.
I'm not sure, though, if someone has taken a samsung base ROM and taken out all touxhwiz related to replace with AOSP counterparts.
Use a JB leak and holo launcher HD, looses touchwiz and you get stock JB

He isn't wrong for wanting a non TW rom. Some people dislike TW. I bought the GS3 but hate TW am I wrong for that? But I am surprised I actually like some of the TW features on the GS3 so lately I have been running TW but themed out as much as possibly as AOSP.
But OP as of right now there are no AOSP roms (JB without TW) that do not have a memory leak. Chances are the memory leak will be there until JB kernel sources are released.
If you want jelly bean without whole touchwiz framework, flash some rom based on aosp or cm19, but if you want stock samsung jb rom without touchwiz launcher, just download some 3rd party launcher via play store, i recommend nova or apex. You can't delete whole touchwiz framework but launcher is replaceable.

Holo launcher hd is a third-party launcher based on AOSP JB it looks exactly the same as it, third-party launchers are the only way if you want stock, the other alternate is to flash an AOSP or CM10 Rom.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yup.
Use a third party launcher like Holo Launcher.
For locker use Holo Locker.
Optionally Root your SIII. And Delete some .apk in system \app.
Lots of replacements there.
Lemme save you the trouble. And get you some suggestions:
AllShare Play - Who wants it? B|
Calculator - Get one like Easy Calculator. Though the stock calculator is pretty nice.
Camera - I'd recommend Camera Zoom FX. but it's paid. stock camera aint bad either.
Clock - A simple deskclock could do. Try "Desk Clock". Or else Stock Clock. " " ".
Contacts, Phone - Can't do anything bout these. except mod on own.
Gallery - Well. It's fine but you can use ICS Gallery by Mobylynx. Pretty fast and elegant
Internet - I hate the stock browser. Get Chrome or ICS Browser +
Messaging - Get ICS Messaging, though i'm not sure if it supports Direct Call.
My Files - Get ES File Explorer. It's the best file manager to drag and drop files.
S Memo, S Planner - Well, they aren't bad. But you can even try out Color Note for S Memo. And for S Planner try Taskos To do list.
S Voice - I don't like S voice at all. Get Speaktoit Assistant. Best voice assistant ever.
Samsung Apps. - Keep this app. Gives free games sometimes.
Video Player - Well. Just keep it. It isn't that bad. Or else try mx video player. It's even good.
Voice Recorder - Stock one is nice. You can try 3rd party Easy Voice Recorder.
Well. That's it.
Can't do anything about the other stuff. Because that's the framework.
I'd recommend trying out a theme, if you want to get rid of that too.
I spent quite some time trying to find the best app in all those areas. So kindly just press the thanks button if i helped you.

Just install a new rom because obviously this one is not too stable on your phone. Or maybe factory reset your phone. Pull the battery out while it is on. Might help a little. If I helped, thank me.

First, the TouchWiz Launcher is a part of the TouchWiz framework of Samsung's semi-fork of Android. So getting a TouchWiz Launcher to work would mean running a stock based Samsung ROM. FlappJaxx's FJ-Build 12, Novena or BlackStar, for example, would be able to use the TouchWiz launcher because they are all based off the 4.0.4 Official TouchWiz ROM. It won't work on AOCP, because it is based of AOSP with CM and AOKP features.
Second, there is a work around to having the TouchWiz look on your phone while using AOCP 4.6. Download a Android stock based launcher; I prefer APEX, but I believe it will work with NOVA as well. While searching for the launcher in the Play Store, you can also go ahead and search for themes. Apex TouchWiz will more than likely yield the fastest result. Load the launcher up, go into settings and hit theme and then select TouchWiz and customize it from there. You will now have the look and "feel" of the TW Launcher without having constant foreclosures whenever you try to use it.

What you are attempting is difficult at best...
Touch wiz launchers are coded to rely on their dedicated framework found in Samsung TW roms.
The only method I'm aware of, to use the launcher, is by using the roms that include it.
There are several TW roms available, and they can be easily stripped down to a lean and effective build by simply using your favorite root explorer app.
Dumping the bloat is already done for you when using the Canadian versions of the TW build.
You can also use the N7005 builds we have too.
See the super everything thread in the general section, and I'm sure you will find a rom to suit your liking.
Read the threads carefully, as they include important information.
Enjoy, and happy flashing ....g
Do you have a rooted KFHD and want the stock tablet launcher? Follow this guide.
Download Apex Launcher from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.launcher&hl=en
Download /system/app mover from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.systemappmover&hl=en
Make sure you have full root access and busybox.
Then open the app and move Apex Launcher to system app.
After prompted reboot, do NOT select set as default until you are 100% sure it works or you could be stuck in a loop.
Select Apex without checking the default box.
Go to menu by double tapping on the homescreen.
Select Apex Settings. Then select Homescreen.
Scroll down to UI and check the "tablet UI" box.
Now press home.
You can also use ICS Statusbar app from the play store for an added stock ICS effect.
Thanks for reading!!
If this helped you out, please see if you can help me out with a bit of MB525 rom installations.
