Im running AOKP M6 and I want to know if I can get the stock lockscreen that comes with the galaxy note. Like the lockscreen thats on the S3. Is there a apk or something?
Not easily. That lock screen is a part of touchwiz, so it would take massive coding work to get it to work on aosp based ROMs, something likely not to happen.

Contrary to the previous reply, it should work just fine.
Here's where to download it (thanks to Black Star): http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390077933525140988

My bad if that works...usually touchwiz elements are a no-go on aosp ROMs.
Edit: I'm not on my Note so I can't try that zip, but it likely will still only work on touchwiz based ROMs, as black star is touchwiz based not aosp based. You can still try but don't get your hopes up. Might be a good idea to make a nandroid in case of a trip to bootloop city. If it does work, great, if not, you're gonna want a backup.

I seriously dislike the TouchWiz UI. It's very boring and dull, I love the way stock Android looks with its dark and light blue theme, very minimalistic and intuitive and I hate the way TouchWiz is just black grey and a mixture of other colors. I'm using NovaLuancher but it only changes the home screen, I'm looking for stock android settings menu and notification/status bar. Is there a solution to this yet? Putting stock ICS on the Galaxy S3? Or are there any launchers or skins that make the settings menu and notifications look like stock ICS?
No one? I'd also like to know.

Check themes and apps section.. If you can't find any themes, then no.. Just hang on... There will be 100 theme releases soon where all is "aosp" and every rom is AOSP themed. Cm9 and aokp will sure also find its way some day

Forgive my ignorance but I've been a iOS user since the first iPhone and I just switched to ICS because I was sick of the iPhone. What is AOSP? I know what CM9 is, what would you recommend me to install on my phone?
AOSP stands for "Android Open Soruce Poject" it is basally the barebone android OS made by Google for all to see. Many roms are based off of it, as the code is release soon after googles flagship nexus devices.
I like aosp too but dont yiu guys think it makes the phone look cheap? I find touchwiz icons classy..
I would suggest waiting a month or so after your carrier gets it to put a custom ROM on it. By then a lot of bugs well have been worked out and there will be some great tutorials available.

no, because you can customize it to your liking. there are thousands of options.
to the op download a launcher and it might imprve your experience.
I doubt CM9 or other stock ICS ROMs will have features like smart stay or s voice...if they do include them, that would be awesome!

CM9 for SGS3 would be custom to suit the S3.. So I'm sure it would include all the features unique only to the S3....
I think the TouchWiz 5 UI is quite nice, MUCH better than the 4.0 on my SGSII, however, I use Nova launcher because S launcher is driving me crazy
Nevertheless, AOSP is still much better, and as the SGSIII is a hugely successful and famous device, so it won't take long for the first AOSP roms to spread from the ground Just have a look at the SGSII
cheers

Hey everyone, need some advice. I hate touchwiz and all the carrier crap so I ALWAYS use AOSP ROMs. I love AOKP and it is working perfectly on my ATT SGS3, but since it is stock android based I don't have any of the features that were part of the reason I wanted this phone. Namely, svoice and the sharing stuff. What rom would you recommend? I use nova launcher so I guess that could help me with the touchwiz crap, but just want some feedback. Thanks everyone.

At this point, your best bet would be to selectively disable any apps you don't like. You can do it through Settings > Applications. If you don't like the launcher, there are plenty of replacements around. The default one for CM9 is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410674
That's what I'm thinking. Too bad I don't have a backup of stock. Gonna go find the stock ROM I saw a thread with it earlier. Thanks.

I would go with aokp. I also liked some touchwizz features such as smart stay and the palm swiping. Aokp just is so much more customizable than stock and for me it runs super smooth. It's a trade off but I would go with aokp.

I prefer aokp, the only thing I miss is the camera, but everything else is good on aokp Imo

im on aokp now, i guess ill just go back and forth haha. the only thing that is annoying is that google wallet is working and i keep seeing this "modified apk" mentioned but i cant find it :/ i guess ill search harder. thanks for the quick input peeps

Not that I know of. But I'm sure you can find one from playstore which has similar layout....i can't guarantee you the fluidity, but it may look like the one on galaxy s3 without any stock functions added.

after recently flashing a custom stock room to my girlfriend's s2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41236531 I was surprised by the inclusion of extra lockscreens n was wondering how difficult it would be to port to one of our roms? I would have a go my self but my skills a limited to slight theme mods.

Does anyone know where we can find a recovery image for the Nexus Experience S4? Any theories as to whether this ROM will work properly on the Verizon S4?
It sounds like it will have the stability/features of touchwiz with all the goodness of AOSP...

Its just going to be the same as nexus 4 but in the galaxy s4.
As for roms there wont be any until the firmware is released and ported to the Regular S4

The nexus experience rom, which i havent found yet, wouldn't work on your phone. It is configured for gsm s4's and yours still needs to have CDMA backwards compatibility for when there is no LTE or you want to place a call. You can install an AOSP based ROM, but as far as i know, they are all still nightlies. If you do not want to sacrifice stability, then google "stock android lifehacker" and follow all their instructions to make your rom more like stock (sorry i cant add links just yet).
My advice for a google experience on your S4 is quite simple.
1. Install custom launcher like Nova or Apex
2. Download and Install an AOSP or Nexus 4 style theme.
3. Done.
Then all that is needed is for you to remove all the bloatware apps and your good to go.

nvm, I just looked at the post CM10.1 and it looks like invisiblek managed to fix all of the known bugs/issues with the rom...
maybe they used Google Edition sources to do this? I'm not really sure, but it looks awesome!
