Not sure if you aware of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335530
a lot ported Touchwiz launchers that I am aware of are based on old S3, but skined to look like S4, Note3, or even S5. There's no real port that I am aware of, that's because it soo embeded into system frameworks, libs,..etc, probably many developers having hard time to port it.
but couple of developers got together and able to port HTC Sense 6 Apps, Blinkfeed, launcher, all good stuff (see link below)..I was monitoring this thread when they start work on it, so if couple of developers come together, everything possible as it seems. it seems it is just not many developers intersted on Touchwiz launcher. I know prvious Touchwiz launcher was really bad, but I believe Samsung come along good and made a lot of improvement on newest Touchwiz launcher that's on new devices.

to all the devs first of all thank you for your hard work. i know it takes time and time to build a nice not buggy rom and kernel,
and i know its hard cause of the lack of the wifi drivers and not having s-off, and i appreciate on staying with the amaze and not given up.
i know there are not many devs and i know working together can do more.
i was wondering if are there any thoughts on working on others roms
i know x been working on ics,
is it possible to port MIUI rom with miui camera in it not like the sensation that have the stock gb camera or CM like rom with the theme chooser apk
i heard before that it is easy to port roms from another htc android device i dont know i am not a dev you tell me. maybe not cause of the lack of s-off
i know if your thinking if i didnt like sense get another, but i do love sense but do like others ui like stock or miui base
and look at this rom for ICS looks cool

If you want it to look cool like ICS
-get adw launcher ex, download the ICS theme
-download widget locket and pick the ICS unlocker, and set the background of the clock to invisible
-download exdialer or exContacts and get the ICS theme

no offence to the OP but such kind of posts are stupid. Do you think the devs havent thought about it before you? you admit it you know nothing about roms and kernels but still you put yourself in the position of suggesting devs what according to you looks better. as seansk said just install couple of apps and make it look like the ones in the link you showed+that miui style is boring stressing iphone like stuff. just buy yourself an iphone 4 and you will be fine

yes i know the devs prolly thought about this, this is just a reminder in fack this message was for devs there is no business here for you,
if i wanted an iphone i would had stayed with it,
and i just suggested that cause its nice having difference roms not just sense
and i know the time it takes to build one.

u mean the dev I suppose? cuz I do not see any devs here other then Xboarder
p.s there is business for me wherever I want mister gipsy from texas
I wouldn't say this is at all a stupid thread. It lets xboarder know that there are lots of people that are looking forward to something else. As for rom developement, its tough because x is really the only person here who knows how to work with source code. A couple others are learning but it just takes time. O and superstar just picked up an amaze so hopefully he will jump in and help! He has an ics build on the hd2!
I would totally love miui as well but know X is really the only main dev here.
Also love when people just ask simple questions and get fired at like they are a moron I bet other people that know a lot were once noobs too.
I guess that's the way xda is and has become its sad that people have to be afraid to post a question or a topic.
Yes I agree search first but damn we all aren't geniuses

Hey Guys
It may be a silly question but I was wondering why the official release still looks like gingerbread I mean obviously some parts look like ICS but others dont, why is this ?
This can be fixed with a theme editor I guess but I was just wondering why, when O2 release this to customers will it still look as it does now ?
Yes it will as samsung are so in love with touchwiz that they should marry it.
I use spb shell so will stick to that.
But use any launcher to get the look you want. When Im not using spb use launcher pro as it gives you a wide scope to play with

Hey person from Telford! nice to see another.
This is the way ICS will look on the SGS2. Samsung wouldn't change from this look as it could potentially alienate a lot of their 20million customers.
Hey guys thanks for the answers, so whats the best way to make it look how its ment to is there a hack to get the look or is the best way via a theme ? the reason I ask is because I have come across this guy http://www.samsung-galaxy-s2-android.com/rom-android-403.html
that is the look I want and he seems to have got the look with earlier versions
The way to get the stock look is with a theme like my ICS RED
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535956
or with a custom ROM.
thats diffrent so if I look for that but im guessing th blue one im after that should do me thanks

Correct me if i'm wrong, but that is AOSP ICS version, so that's the default look of it.. It's not themed
means nothing to me mate so thats the original rom from google or a beta anyway, Im guessing this guy will update this soon then ?
I just want my SGS2 to look like how google inteneded mainly cause its better looking

The problem is that AOSP isn't 100% functional yet.. video recording, MTP and some other things don't work yet and they will remain that way until samsung releases sources or xplodwild finishes his kernel ^^
oooohhhhhh its all starting to make sense now, that makes sense so its just a waiting game really then we can install the google version and its then happy days, so thats what this guy is doing and the CM9 guys
I guess what they do now then is backwards engineer what Samsung has released and work from there
I'm also interested in this. Basically I want a change from always looking at the same menu after a year and i had hoped ics would give it but im hearing it all looks the same cause of touchwizz. So I'm hearing different things, some people say install a theme, others say install a launcher and yet others talk about installing a new rom?
The Ressurection Rom looks quite cool, is it really a bugfree experience? Do i have to reinstall all my programs, downloaded apps and stuff like battlenet authenticator?
Can I install the ressurection rom now or do i need to wait till my phone has ics installed trough kies?
What is the best way to go to get a smooth ICS type experience? Whats the main difference between these things? (sorry im a noob by the way and theres so much information on this site its hard to get a grip on it).
Have a look at the link i put up I think the best thing is to install that rom after its been updated again with the new version of the ics that was just leaked

Nova launcher will give you a stock ics like experience. Worth a try
in the market for free.
while we wait for aosp and or miui would you guys be interested in a GB or ICS rom with touchwiz and or samsung elements? i know most hate touchwiz but honestly i think it has alot of cool features including some nice lockscreen options.
for example this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274561
just thought it could be cool to play with something different than sense for a change. id try to port it myself but i have no clue where to start. just getting a feel if this would be something some of the rezound members would be interested in? or if some of the devs could point me in the right direction of where to start and how to port?

So essentially you want sense-like widgets, with samsung icons ? Can't you do that already with a custom launcher and just swap out the icons ?
Isn't one UI on top of Android enough?
i just thought it would be something different and id like to learn about porting. my wife is running that rom and it's actually pretty solid.
I just had a brand new GS3 and have been playing with it quite a lot these past days
I've done many things such as root it, download free paid apps with it, used different launchers with it, etc.
But the latest thing I did, to see what all the fuss was about was to upgrade my GS3 to Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightly
I mean a lot of people are doing it so I thought it was all good, well at least at the beginning it seemed to be
I have to say at first glance it seemed like a great deal for me, having a spanking new lockscreen, notification bar, overall stock phone and messaging applications, and a sleek looking camera
Everything looked fine, until I tried out many of the new stuff out...
First of all the new camera was pretty ok but had one major drawback for me, the HDR mode
You see in the original GS3 ROM the cameras HDR mode was like lightning, you wouldn't notice that it takes separate photos to make the unified, balanced exposure photo
While in the new camera you can notice a time delay of something like .2-.5 seconds between each photograph that the camera takes in order to make you new HDR photo
The result? a badly stitched photo because of shaky hands. And even using "great" paid camera apps produced the same results
Next in the phone application itself, it looked nice and dandy until I noticed that the option for video calling totally disappeared...
And can I say video calling is by far one of my most used things in my GS3 if not the most after the texting and normal calls
I mean hey, I can make a video call anytime anywhere without internet isn't that awesome?!?
Well actually those two are my only real problems... the others could be the disappearance of my stock Samsung apps such as S Note or S Memo but those can be easily replaced with similar apps from the Play Store, and of course what other stock Samsung apps that dissapeared were the Samsung App store, S Voice, etc. which I liked to have been taken out
That said the Cyanogenmod ROM for me looked more like a launcher with added features but nothing else more, it did not have much of it's own "original" apps and that was kind of okay I guess
BUT MY CONCLUDING QUESTION IS
are all custom ROMs like this? will they all overwrite my beautiful video calling and camera capabilities or was it just the Cyanogenmod ROM?
I'm looking up into other ROMs like "Universe S4 ROM" or "Imperium ROM" for my GS3 and just wanted to know before I either invest a good amount of time or just waste it if those ROMs will or will not take out the bad and add mroe good to my GS3 especially the "Universe S4 ROM" since it said that it will add apps that are exclusive to the GS4 like the S Translate.
Thanks in advance for the replies!
CM and camera is a well posted problem .
You have to do some research first then decide if what the custom rom offers outweighs the bugs .
The S4 apps are a work in progress some work 100% some fail others have bugs that developers try and solve .
You would be better to stick with a stock rooted rom or even a bare bones stock custom Samsung rom .

You should try glamour s4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258723 by henry
It has nearly all the apps from the galaxy s4 you can get from the aroma launcher ( In recovery)
And my battery life is extended to nearly 3 hours more!

Thank you very much for this!
I'm still wondering if there are custom ROMs that still have the video call and camera the GS3 or are my only options really those bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs? If so where can I look to have an easier time finding those types of ROMs I need?
And is an GS4 ROM one of those stock rooted ROM or bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs that you're talking about or is it a totally different ROM already that doesn't have the video call and camera that I'm looking for?
Because I see all of these ROMs and their offers but I don't know where to look within the forums to know if they do or do not have the two simple aspects that I'm looking for.

Thanks too for this!
But as with the other reply I still have the same question.
Can I still make standard Samsung/Android video calls with this one and is the S4 camera that comes with this as good (or better) than the S3 camera?
I really do hope it does and I'll give it a shot!

By default, this ROM comes with S3 camera. You can find the S4 camera in Aroma. But the S4 camera is quite buggy, video recording some other functions are not wroking yet. Henry is trying his best to make it work. I would reccomend you to try Glamour S4 ROM. Brilliantly smooth and excellent.
In my opinion, cyanogenmod is the most overrated rom in the android. Just a little speed improvement and lots of missing features and problems.
You should try roms based on samsung roms.

I'd like to ask what ROMs would those be?
Or at least what or where should I search to know if the ROMs would be Samsung based?
Are there indicators?

I saw how far i9300 went. We but we stuck here... Yes of course, AOSP developement continues. But I think TW6 looks more elegant than any other TWs and AOSP. I saw many s5 themed roms but they are far away from s5 (only statusbar but even it is not completely)
So again.. I am asking, can we make whole s5 ui? AOSP or SAMMY it doesn't matter.

It's possible, but it will require a lot of work. You could ask one of the recognized themers for our device but the chances are they don't have time to do this work now.
