Does anyone know when there going to incorporate the Samsung apps into the JB builds? Like the Smemo and its S-pen functions (ex//double tap on screen to open note) or will there be an alternative with the S-pen functions created?
Try Paranoid Android ROM...it has S-Pen functions...

CM 10 Problems..
Anyone know of plans to incorporate S Pen apps/features into CM 10? I'm loving this ROM except for that.... I used S Memo all the time when I was stock... :crying:
The original S-Memo functions work only in TouchWiz. You can try some ICS TouchWiz-based rom like Padawan, Nebula (I tried both and they work), Black Ice and other stock/UCLF6 based roms.
Some JB roms have incorporated pen gestures, but it is not the same experience. And this is the reason that I decided to move away from JB roms for now.
Try out Blackstar X and you may not want JB.
With 2 versions of voice search and new Android keyboard with gestures. Ran a few days, ZERO hiccups. Mighty fine indeed.

That's what I hear all of the time is to go back to ICS with tw but I really would like job with tw which is the reasoning for this thread. Although black star is a great ROM, ran it for a day or 2, job is a lot better because its just so buttery smooth hahaha and s memo and that butter smoothness with the other tw features will be awesome. Its just no one has ported any for some reason. You would think someone would convert an international ROM or a galaxy s3 one..

At the moment, there is no TW based JB rom.
It won't happen until an official JB rom is released.
There are many, many people wanting TW on JB, including me. It has been asked before by many and the answer is no. Either go back to ICS with TW or live with JB as it is.

hi, i have sg2! and im using a rom which doesn't have the touchwizz customization!m im asking if i can have all the beautiful stuffs of sg2 touchwizz in this rom; ( contacts, dialer, sms, etc...) or a theme would be sufficient??!
thks and sorrrrrrrrrrrry
i'm guessing that you have an AOKP rom or so.
i think that the hole point of those room is to get as far from samsung as posible, so i think you'll not be able to found a ported touchwiz.
though there many aokp roms with similar themes. this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27619632#post27619632 has an LG launcher with the same icons of touchwizz...
but apps and stuff are not the same as samy' s one...
i guess you'll have to live with it, or go back to stock roms...or modifyed sammy roms..in that case i recomend you Darky roms...are pretty good
Touch Wiz UX has been ported from the GS3, I have used it on AOKP based Resurrection Remix, in fact it comes with it.. Nice launcher. You can Download it here:

With the progress being made toward an ICS ROM port (link below) for our beloved Streak5, I thought I would ask for opinions on which Launcher would be best to run on it.
Feel free to add a post as to reasons.
The only available options I've found are as follows:
* AOSP (the vanilla android launcher)
* Apex (from 'Android Does')
* Nova (from 'TeslaCoil Software')
* Trebuchet (from CyanogenMod 9)
:fingers-crossed:
[ROM][Early pre-alpha] AOSP ICS 4.0.4_r2.1 for DS5
Just realized there are many similar threads to this one on various different device forums.
Not meaning to reinvent the wheel here, so I'll leave it up to the Mods to decide on whether there is merit to having a Dell Streak 5 specific topic regarding which one works best for our hardware/rom... or just lock this thread and be done with it.
Thanks.
:cyclops:
This thread might have some merit as:
The S5 is one of the few WVGA 160dpi devices (at least it would be if the ICS rom wasnt set to 240dpi), pretty much all phones are 240dpi
But a counterpoint is that there are very few ICS only launchers as that means not being compatable with 93% of your market (at least according to google [Link])
The trebuchet launcher from CM9 supposedly works on stock ICS, and it's ICS only as it's an enhanced stock ICS launcher(?).
At least with a custom launcher and 160dpi you can use the Stage 1.7 widgets, they're pretty nice on my S7/S10/touchpad
(The stock launcher is 4x4 grid and stage 1.7 needs at least 5x5)
ADW and ADWex have worked fine on HC/ICS for a while and are native apps on those, they simply have no reason to make seperate HC/ICS only versions.
this is depend on dev who release the rom or his rom type. once ICS is ported into our DS5, there will be a lot more port from others OS (AOSP, AOKP, CM9, MIUI4 etc etc). but everyone can choose...its in Market as long Android 4.++
Don't leave Holo Launcher out of the mix. I'm currently running it on the ICS rom an its working great

Agreed. Beside that, it lightweight, fast with no lag, and easy to use...:thumbup:

I no longer have a Streak, but on my Samsung Skyrocket I tried all of the ICS only launchers when I was running ICS and I just keep coming back to Launcher Pro.
I have the nova on my streak 7 I like it first one that was closer to stock vanilla IMO

So if I'm using flappjaxxx rom and I use the apex launcher am I not getting the full use of the s-pen ? Like would it make a difference if I used touchwiz instead? I haven't noticed anything not working but I'm no expert and just trying to understand it all a bit more...thank you in advance for any replies!

Yes touchwhiz is the main program that runs the s Pen i do believe

Doesn't matter what launcher you use.
When people say you need touch wiz for fully functioning s-pen, they mean the overlay built into the system by Samsung.
Since flapp has 2 roms... aospxXx which does not have any touch wiz at all. So, no gesture/button functions in the pen. And the touch wiz launcher will not work on any aosp Rom.
His stock base build has touch wiz, it's stock based, but as i said the launcher doesn't matter, as long as the Rom itself is touch wiz firmware you're good to go
Hey I was wondering what launchers you guys used on jelly bean ROMs like cm10 and AOKP. I tried apex and nova but they seem slower than they did on ICS. Home screen scrolling is not as smooth.
I agree on apex not feeling smooth on JB. The stock trebuchet is smoother but lacks customization that others off. I just tried nova and it seems pretty smooth. More so than apex. I'm on PA CM10

I like Apex alot but as soon as I load up 3 screens with icon/apps the pinch gesture which displays the overview of all screens is very laggy. I've tried it on numerous JB versions.
I understand a bunch of people on this forum don't like Go Launcher but, for myself, the latest versions have been the smoothest of any of the launchers I've tried on JB .
I'm a big Apex fan, but it does lag a little in the drawer on JB. That said, the CM10 official Nightly has the best performance of all I've tried (PA, AOKP, and CM10 unofficial).
I've giving Nova a try right now, and so far, without hiding any apps in the drawer, there's like 4 pages and it's pretty quick and smooth. I will have to re-setup everything just like in Apex for it to work for me, but so far so good.
Until someone gets a composer that actually works correctly, UI elements will feel slow on JB. Thats why we have screen flickers and have to eff around with build.prop changes and other voodoo to "fix" this.
Until the HWcomposer gets a fix, it will simply not be as fast as a JB native phone.
When I had my S2 there was a ROM that was built on Touchwiz but had stock features and apps integrated - such as messages, calendar, launcher...and all obvious Touchwiz features removed. This is the best of both worlds for me.
Is there a simple stockified Touchwiz based ROM for the S3, or is there a reason that this isn't possible?
There is such a dizzying array of ROMs on here that it's hard to know where to start looking for such a thing!
Thanks guys.
I run UltimaROM, It' based on on stock JB but themed like the AOSP one. Also it has Aroma installer and you can customize allmost everything you can imagine!

You can try Anroid Revolution HD

I would also suggest UltimaRom. You can install whatever you like with the help on AROMA.
I have removed touchwiz from my s3 and removed many default applications . Now my phone is faster than ever. It's completely customised and I love it.
