[Q] CyanogenMod9 and Touchwiz - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
some folks made me think about CyanogenMod9 as it is supposed to be better than stock.
But when I saw CyanogenMod9 I noticed it looks differently compared to the stock I mean especially some features which I like.
This is why I'd like to ask if some of them are available in CM9 and if they're part of TouchWiz would it be possible to install such features as external app (or mod).
Is in CM9 such look of dialer?

}
What about feature when you are in the contacts and can just slide right\left for SMS\Call? (green field on the picture)
Would Call window look same?
Overall those are TouchWiz features which I like and for me are "a must". But i'd like to try CM9 too
The last question regards camera - often in custom roms camera is really piece of crap compared to the stock ROM.
Can you say CM 9 camera is at minimum level of stock ROM camera quality? Doesn't it have many crashes and bugs?
Thx

1. Depends on Rom (but you always able to have this feature with exDialler, love it)
2. Depends on Rom.
There is a lot of new kernels that provides you "dual-boot" feature in CWM so after installing such kernel you will be able to experiment without worries.
Also you always able to create a backup from CWM menu and return to your previous ROM if you do not like new one.

Hello,
You can look for a list of best roms here in XDA or I recommend Salman ROM .. Its just amazing !!!
Take care ..

you want straight simple answer, skip cm9 and use stock.
detail: nothing wrong in using stock/touchwiz rom, its people who dont like touchwiz are one who will say use cm9 blaa blaa, if you tried it and missing touchwiz go back to it.

So that means I cannot install Touchwiz over custom rom?
I hate pure ICS dialer and camera. Samsung's ones are much better :E

So use the stock touchwiz ROM.
You can try the galaxy s3 Touchwiz on cm9 if you want, but it won't change the dialer.

All the description would be nice
I am trying to upload some photos to this thread.
i dont know what is this.
"SamsuNg GalaXy Ace for Miui(CM version)" didnt give any sense. is it a pure miui or just cm7 using some miui app so it looks like miui?
btw u doesnt need to reg to view that thread content. heres some screenshot from that thread, and i dont see any miui settings
It's CM themed. Looks like CM settings in the first picture. Chinese developed?
Does it has any other languages?

Anyone can share with me the download link of cooper.ops file?
You might as well use this theme:

Along with QQlaucnher (/MIUI launcher).
edit: You can find the cooper file easily on google.

Thing is, I believe the CM7 is cooked by the Chinese developers. Unless they somehow used XDA sources?
I have finished flashing this rom .experiencing now ..
Looks just like CM7 with this theme and some MIUI Apps/Launcher.

So it may be of a different base. If so not really the same as the CM7 we are using with themes and launchers.

Clean Honeycomb ROM ?

There are few ROMs avalibale for Galaxy Tab 10.1v, but I can't seem to find a clean HC ROM for it!
I believe I can easily remove few apk's maybe edit few entries in xml's in HC rom's with TouchWiz UI and I am done ?
Any help is much appreciated

Just delete the apps you don't want via /system/apps and your good to go. You require root though. I do however find it hard to understand what you mean by "Clean"
I can't just delete apk's, because than I belive launcher will be missing, since Samsung uses his own launcher!?!
I do have root, and I know how to "edit" ROM, so I am fimiliar with removing apk's, changing bootaniamtions, removing sounds, walls...
By clean I mean, stock theme with stock apps, so that is close to AOSP build

Well there aren't much theme's out for the whole HC scene, Apart from the grungy dark blue and the neon blue that ICS seems to be promoting. I don't think EDT Tweaks works on HC tablets, Would be nice though
Samsung has it's own theme with TouchWiz UI

And what I want is this:
So, I don't want a theme, I want stock AOSP, maybe it will be better if I say that I want to completly remove TouchWiz UI!
Why not go for ICS Kang? It's got the whole grungy look and everything you require, AOSP too.
If you have the Wifi only "P7511", then you can go back to HC 3.1: [ROM / GT-P7510] - 2/15 - CleanROM Rewind 1.0 - HC 3.1 for the Enthusiast
...or forward to an ICS ROM as already suggested. It seems to be the only way to get rid of TouchWiz.
Yeah I am running CM9 now, but camera does not work, same as USB Storage...
Mine is 3G too.

USB storage works, It's as Roman said, you need to tap the | on the top right corner in Settings, Mount and enable MTP to allow it to connect as a USB storage.
Camera doesn't work but who uses it on the tab? Heavy ass camera compared to a DSLR lol. Skype can wait
There is a 3.1 OTA update somewhere, which does not have TouchWiz. However, it doesn't support API 13, so it can't run stuff designed for Honeycomb as released.

Didn't notice another 3.1 link... but it's a slightly different one I'm giving a link to.

Freeze some apps that are not necessary that run in the background that take up CPU and ram cycles. There is a spreadsheet that's floating around that tells you the safe and not safe apps to freeze/remove. Search the i717 parent thread for "spreadsheet"

"If you apply Theme, Your galaxy player 5.0 is brick." <--- Sounds dangerous.
It's hard to get exited for a new ICS ROM that will most likely never see another update and has the same issues as the rest.
We all appreciate your work nonetheless, but instead of working in different projects, every developer could work in a team on what we all need the most, kernel 3, if that's even possible.
Unfortunately, I'm not a dev, so it is easy for me to say anything without actual knowledge on how hard it is to come up with a new ROM. The only way I personally can help is with testing.
Again, thank you for the new ROM.
What's the point of ur roms if u never update since v1?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3, best custom rom??

Hey guys!
I've just rooted my phone and i would like your opinions on the best custom roms for the galaxy S3
I have already tried CM10 and AOKP... But with CM10 there is a bit of delay on the lockscreen, and that annoys me ALOT!
About AOKP; i cant connect to WiFi ?!
But anyway, I'll appreciate any help, thanks! :laugh:
Jeeez, read the rules already - 4 million threads on 'what's the best ROM for me' and you have to start another?
Get ready to be locked!
Asking for rom recommendations aren't allowed. As for lags on lockscreen, it's like that with all the roms.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
sorry
sorry, i wont do it again :crying:
I think that you are already doing the right thing and trying out different roms to see how they work for your particular needs. I'm using Temasek at the moment, however, thats not to say that it is the best rom, its just suits my needs. I also switch on a regular basis to Liquidsmooth, AOKP, CM10.1 and ParanoidAndroid just to try out the new features - thats the beauty of having an Android phone!
Just keep on trying the numerous roms to be found and find one that you like the feel of. Once you've sorted your rom, you can move on to finding which Kernel suits your needs too....
Good luck.
Try omega rom search from play store

you shouldn't really ask which is the best ROM, but with the ROMs currently not showing in the search function on the forum at the moment I think you can be a little forgiven lol
You are best just trying the different ones out, i know it can be a bit of a pain to flash and setup each one but youll find one in the end that you like, or you will keep flashing a new one each week as a lot of people here do (GUILTY).
The one i kept on the longest is UltimaROM, the dev is very active and welcomes requests. Version 8.1.1 is very stable and nice to use.
OmegaROM is good as mentioned above.
Both of these are 4.1.2 Samsung Based ROM
Or there are a few AOSP based ROMS on 4.1.2 or 4.2.1. JellyBam being a very nice example which is based on CM10.1 and AOKP's latest builds. Or the CM 10.1 Nightly builds.
Hope that helps
Check out my ROM, it's totally the best!
Try the foxhound Rising rom, been was the second rom i tried for my s3 & I've been very happy here, fully customizable & has so much inside! JB, fast, everything works, just give it a try & see how you like it? I haven't looked back since I installed this.
Hope this helps, click the thanks button if this helps
