The power of the SGS3 with HTC Sense ! Is it possible ? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello !!
I'm a new owner of a Samsung GS3, but i hate the samsung touchwizz since the 10th minute of use !
The main issue is the fact that i need to do up 7 operations to make a simple call !!!, sms are in call history.... I dont like it at all.
but it's a pity not to take advantage of the power of the beast.
so my question is : is it possible to have HTC sense on that machine ? or is there an alternative custom rom that is not using the same touchwizz ??? please help me before i sell it....
thanks,
Oumar

Doubtful someone will get a fully working port of sense.
You can try cyanogenmod ROMs, they have aosp looks and you can get ICS in cm9 or JB in cm10.
Or you can download nova launcher or apex launcher from the play store and use it instead of touchwiz launcher.

Thanks for your help but these launchers don't help me that much. It moves the problem.
I really need this HTC sense on my Samsung...... Grrrrrrrrr!

Have you tried third party Dialers such as ExDialer or GoContacts? These paired up with a good third party locker like WidgetLocker can get you the Sense lock screen with customizable shortcuts and it should be pretty good from there.

You can read the Sense port WIP thread .

Correct, I used dialer one, but for me it's not perfect, because for some regular operations, touch wiz takes the top.
I rooted my phone, un installed touchwiz with titanium, (mistake) my phone refused to operate again....
Fortunately it was rooted, I installed aopk custom rom, now it's fine.
The original ics is enough good to be used.
I will keep on trying to reach the super goal of HTC sense
Thanks guys!

Yesss, I saw it already, they are doing a good job, but some important issues like sound, wifi.. Are still not working. I will stay in touch as soon as it will be ok.
Thanks a lot for your support.
Do you have the same problems as I?

if your phone is rooted, I presume sooner or later, there are a wide range of "fix" that does remove SMS from dialer...thus should serve you more effectively...having HTC in the past, I dont feel the Samsung is any harder to use, hasnt deterred me from my upgrade from S2 to S3...but certainly the HTC Sense is quite nice visually...TouchWiz...is getting there, but with the support from mods/fixes as cooked by XDA Devs.

you should have considered the HTC One X.

Samsung galax ys2 touchability problem

I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s 2 touch screen . I find a lag when i swipe between pages on homescreen not just lag the icons kinda seem vibrating when i do so. But everything is fine when i play games. This has really pissed me off . I had once found a solution similar to my problem in this forum and a solution but that did not help me. I hope you can help me and pray this is not a hardware effect.
I am using the latest ICS. This problem was there when i used its earlier versions. I have tried customs roms like villainrom and miui as well . but the problems persisted.

Go back to ginger bread (MIUI is really great) if you want the best touch sensitivity.. samsung's ics roms have touch sensitivity problems.

I have tried using miui and in fact changed to ics from gingerbread because of this problem. with miui the problem was a bit less but still frustrating enough and now i am back to ICS with siyah kernel and also did some settings change from its tweak app. but nthng improved.

Replacing The Stock Dialer

Hello everyone, i was wondering if it's possible to replace the default stock dialer with the original android dialer like the one in cm9 because to be honest the dialer has always been a problem for me ever since my Xperia Arc, for the life of me i really can't understand how Sony with all it's awesomness can't make a fast dialer, it's so slow sometimes it's embarrassing and at the moment i feel like reverting back to stock from cm9 even though i love cm9 but it still lacks some important features to me, and it does not make sense to use a different firmware just because i can't get the stock Sony dialer not to lag.

It can be done, but we dont, and never will have enough devs to take on the task.
I had an x8 and the idea was floating around there for a while. In the end even the top devs settled for adding sense like features to CM based Roms.
If you take a look at x8 section you will see how many devs there is and was and how busy it still is 3 years on with cracked bl, oc, CM, ICS and even JB betas, but no sense port as of yet.
So as I said its possible, but yet impossible giving the support our device has here at XDA.

The thing is, G1 at least had a half-supported chipet. Sense can't work on U8500 devices, and it won't be able to until HTC makes a U8500 device.
Its a port out now for xperia11 devices... but even the motorola defy had sense roms wich is completly not sense hardware... it is possible but will probably not happen cuz a lot of devs prefer aosp roms. Just as me. What would you rather have? Ics sense 4.0 or jelly bean 4.2 aosp?

I will update later a screen that shows more Sense than that and how to do it
i really like sense ui. i use nova launcher on my U n am satisfied with it, but want the lockscreen of the sense.
can we add a custom lockscreen to xperia u so we get those quick shortcuts, while keeping a different launcher (eg nova)?

Stock applications on CM 10.1

Hello, dear XDA community!
I am using Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for almost 1 month and beginning from day 1 I realised that Samsung did something wrong with android and spoilt everything with their TouchWiz UI. I tried a lot of different ROMs and found that the best one for me is CyanogenMod 10.1. Everything is cool about this ROM, but I miss some features from the stock ROM.
The features that I miss are:
* S Note
* Samsung Keyboard
* Samsung Camera
I tried extracting these apps from deodexed ROM (I used Omega ROM + correct permissions), but for some reason they refuse to work...
Can someone tell me how to add these apps to my beloved CyanogenMod ROM?
I will appreciate all links, guides and suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
They will not work cm lackes tw framework they rely on

That can be done but still doesn't give you the apropriate fw to use tw fw reliant apps
I think the only one that'll work is weather widget
