Hey,
Is there anyway to get plain vanilla ICS or JB or 4.3 (damn!!) dialer/contact apk to use on my s3?
I think TouchWiz really messed up with the contacts and dialer, I'm not so angst against other this much. But these are the basics of a phone.
I've tried exDialer it's better but still nowhere on the leaguse og Nexus 4.
Thanks guys

Hi All,
I am currently running CM9. But, am facing a few issues. So, was thinking of going back to stock ROM for a while. I love the AOSP look and love the CM9 dialer.
Almost all the stock based themed ROM's are having a themed stock dialer.
[ which doesn't even have contacts list inside, it is very annoying !! ]..
Some ROM's, I see are having AOSP dialler, but it doesn't have the CM9 functionalities, in particular Smart T9 dialler.
In addition, the stock call animation is present. [v.v.ugly].
The AOSP / CM9 call animation is so much better.
Sorry, if this feels as if I am hating on touchwiz, but take this as my opinion and not a fact. [ I love some touchwiz features, which I am not getting in CM9].
I know that earlier the Resurrection ROM was having CM9 dialer, but westcrip seems to have moved on to AOKP ..
So, please help me find out any ICS themed stock ROM, with CM9 dialer like functionality.
this is not a ROM suggestion but...
You can try an app called exDialer and download the ICS theme for it. It looks a lot like the CM9 dialer and has the T9 dialer.

Thanks for the suggestion. But, I prefer using the stock one instead of third party applications. [ Have seen that the stock application , keeps on using the memory, under the system application, and I understand that it is a bigger problem on my older phone, SGS, which had .v.little memory. ]
But still would prefer the stock.
I would love that someone would make Sammy GB dialer to ics and the Sammy GB lock screen.
I can't go to ics rom because of those. Always returning to villainrom.
Could someone look at these?

Has anyone done this yet? I as well would like to have the GB tabs back for my ICS dialer and contacts.
Hello.
I like a lot the AOSP locker and dialer. I've found a Jelly Bean like locker, called Holo Locker, that works fine.
I'm having more troubles to find the AOSP dialer.
Hello
I'm a big fan of Samsungs Hardware but never liked touchwiz. The hings that annoy me most are the launcher and the Email(Exchange) App.
Is there a way to use the Vanilla ICS pendants without switching completely to cyanogen (when it once will be available)? I would like too keep the few nice add ons by Samsung.
Thx for hints
You could try an alternative ICS launcher such as Nova https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher&hl=en. Hope that helps some.
An alternative launcher will definitely get you away from much of the touchwiz experience but you will still be stuck with Samsung's email, calendar, etc apps. Take a look in the SGS3 Themes and Apps section. I believe someone there has created a flashable zip to replace the Samsung stock apps with the ICS ones.
Thanks both of you. Nova does the trick for now.
I also flashed the ICS Email but it did not want to work. Guess I'll wait for CM then.
cheers
Hello guys,
I am looking for Jelly Bean ROM ( I mean JB look, i don`t like samsung overlay on android) but with all special functions of Samsung Galaxy s 3 such as S Voice, Smart Stay and touch options( zooming with two fingers on picture in gallery etc.) I spent whole day on searching but didn`t find any maybe looking in wrong place? or just doesn`t exist?
Also i would like to add that it isn`t my very beginig on flashing roms. Previously I had HTC Desire HD with plenty roms tried.
Please help

AOKP /AOSP are non Samsung roms

I would suggest a custom deodexed sammy rom (wanam, omega etc) with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730397 and nova or apex launcher! Thats as close as you can get.

And does the "pan to move icons" works? I have already found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886332 MS Team HD 5.0 and it doesn`y support it but just it so it`s very acceptable. Another thing, but propably in every rom, lack of S Planner widget.
Would totally love this combination as well. Mainly so I can keep WiFi tethering which Vanilla JB ROMs don't have.
Nice to hear that I`m not alone
S Planner and other samsung applicatins might be in the rom, depending if the author put it in or not. I can not give you that specific advice because I am using cm10. So you gotta check some roms out and see whats in there.
You also have the option to flash deodexed stock rom and then vertumus theme, so you got the complete Samsung stuff. Here you get the rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704185
Oh and perhaps also check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911572 Has the JB look out of the box
http://galaxys3.roms-db.com/ also very neat when trying to find a suiting rom!
Apex or Nova launcher with holo locker.

Is there any way to port the Touchwiz apps from stock jb to CM10 or CM10.1, because i feel the CM10.1 smoother than stock JB, but, i note the TW Camera App better than the default CM 10.1 camera app, and others apps like, message, phone, keyboard, s-note, paper artist...and so on...
i ask because i want to keep the essence of the note, and the speed/performance of CM...

cant have GOOD without EVIL my friend
is there any way we can get a REPUBLICAN to think like a DEMOCRAT???
not that I am either. it just seems as if we don't vote for who we want anymore, its voting for the lesser evil
good luck
No you cant port the TW apps to a non TW ROM. The reason is due to the framework. TouchWiz, while Android, uses a specific framework to run those apps. Such framework is not present in CM or any other ROM. So there is no way to port the apps.
