Well as title says, I'm wondering why the Samsung contacts app is never ported? We have tw framework and many other apps so could someone explain why we can't have the contacts app?
(I likes it in case you didn't guess)

Yes, thats the first thing android provides is syncing with GOOGLE services. It syncs contacts from your phone and you wont have to use itunes to update contacts.
It does it automatically

Well the only thing I will miss about the iphone is the keyboard it was jailbroken as well but I won't do that with galaxy. Is there anyway without rooting to install apps that I download to my SD card for example?
and any good keyboard or is the standard one just fine?
Yes, there is a box in settings that, once ticked, will let you install apps from outside sources, like installous, but much easier.
There are 2 keyboards that come with the S2, samsung and swype. The swype one is the best, samsung for some reason put a mic key instead of a comma key, which is stupid!
Personally I keep swapping between SwiftkeyX (in the Market), or 'keyboard from android 2.3' (yea weird name-also in the Market).
Enjoy!

Hi,
For some reason, I can't find the people app, instead, it is just the normal Contacts app.
I'm using the international version of SIII, standard ICS, bought from Samsung Vietnam directly.
Can't seem to find the app on google store.
Please help?
PLease help?
The "people app" is also just contacts. The touchwiz version just doesn't look much like the original ICS contacts app. But if you really want this "people app" to appear then you'd have to either port it to touchwiz or go ahead and install an AOSP/AOKP custom rom.

Hi there
I really hate the stock people.apk that comes with CM 10.2, and I was wondering if it's possible to switch it to something else as defaults contacts editor.. Even the stock samsung app is a lot better..
Thank you!
Yes, loads of contacts app on the play store

Yes, but I mean one that would replace people as the default one, since the other contacts apps seem to direct you to people.apk when you want to edit contact details
There's nothing to replace it. Not all contacts apps "direct you"

Hello children. Uhhhmmm I recently flashed epinters 10.1. Actually this is the first time flash a custom rom. I just wanna ask about my facebook contacts. I added my acct Facebook but it didn't snyc like blur does. I used sync me but wasn't satisfied. I want all my contacts in Facebook sync in my phone even though they dont have phone/contact numbers. How'd i do that?! Thank you.

Thats because this isn't a blur rom.
I recall seeing contact sync on android apps section.
EDIT: I cant fimd it, but you could also try in the playstore, there seems to be several apps that do what you need

I've searched and searched but can't seem to find an apk for s planner. I'm running paranoid 4.3 and I'm used to the look of my old stock Samsung calendar. Anyone mind sending me a link? Hopefully it'll show my agenda as Google isn't showing everything for some reason. Thanks in advance...

You van get from the E4GT one stop shop.
X'd out the game
You can choose which calender to display in Google Calendar. The Samsung calendar can only be used on stock touchwiz based Roms and the widget will only show up with the touchwiz launcher.
