Ok,
I have been eagerly waiting for the 4.4.2 Kitkat official update due to the bugs or whatever the 4.3 has. But as we know, we may not get the update. So, for the first time I am looking for a custom ROM, as the title says, I need any 4.4 ROM with Touchwiz, I've searched this forum and also Googled, I found the S4 Revolution but its 4.3, so, if there's any 4.4 Touchwiz ROM I am not aware of. I will be glad if you tell me. If not then I'm going for the S4 Revolution. Thanks.
How can you expect a custom touchwiz kitkat rom when you know there is no official one nor will be??
Touchwiz is closed source so apps can be ported at best but not whole rom...

Oh is that so? Since the note 3 launchers were ported, I thought even the whole ROM might be ported too. Lack of knowledge about the ROMS, sorry and thanks .

Hello!
My problem is that i cant find 4.4.x rom (e.g. based on cm11) that has full S5 TW experience. So my question is .. How can i add the whole system ui from TW roms to for example CM11. I tried to install the apk-s from wizzedkat rom, but thats based on 4.1.2 and it doesnt work on CM11. I found some CM11 roms for Galaxy S3 with touchwiz, but i didnt tried these apks.
Thanks!
It's really hard to port touchwiz to AOSP... You can try using some themes to give you at least a similar interface to what touchwiz offers
You might want to check this one...

Thanks for your answer.
I tought Im the only one that want TW UI for kitkat roms. I didnt know that is hard to port to AOSP. Maybe somebody will port TouchWiz to AOSP..
I don't think will never happen as long as Samsung does not release its source
You can't ('add the whole system ui from TW roms to for example CM11') & nobody will ever port Touchjizz to be usable on AOSP roms on this device.
Hello, I always have new versions of Android on my S2, and with the lollipop update, samsung released new lollipop-based touchwiz. I love touchwiz from the 4.1 update, and the lollipop-based is awersome! Now I'm running WizzedKat rom, and I ask: is there any lollipop based rom with the new touchwiz for s2? THX!

Nope. It's too early for developers to make such rom. Porting touchwiz to lollipop takes effort and is probably hard to do with all of the recent additions to android. You probably need to wait a few more months until someone manages to get it working but right now it's too early to estimate.
well, is anyone working on a touchwiz lolipop rom for s2? i'd love to test i on my s2. great piece of hardware
I want to install on my SGSIII samsung's ROM after 6 months on Cyanogenmod. Which ROM is the best port of Samsung's 4.4? Please tell me, becouse there are various ROMs in the android development section. And second thing, I've installed the ROM using CM Installer, so if somebody give me tutorials how to flash it, I'll be greatful
When i was looking for custom roms here, i found that they are generally modified version of stock jelly bean.
Isn't possible to take some kitkat rom of other samsung phones? Or nexus as they are supposed to be smoother? Or device like LG L20 which have configuration as ours s5282?
I am aware of drivers and different hardware thing (little bit), but still there must be a way to cook Kitkat with drivers for our phone?
Please do reply and suggest as much as possible.

how cyanogen works? correct me where i am wrong, they take some roms and modify for the required device.
Which roms are those? i heard they build kitkat for some nexus for which kitkat update wasn't available. How did they do it?

Cyanogenmod is developed as free and open source software based on the official releases of Android by Google, with added original and third-party code. Cm does not contain any bloatware and It offers features and options not found in the stock rom. Cm is much more custmizable than stock.
Hi I am a Galaxy s3 user who installs custom roms to improve my device. I have installed many TouchWiz and pure stock roms for my device and i have liked TouchWiz roms. But i want a Full lollipop TW rom for my device. But I dont see any rom that sufices my wants. That is why i am asking skill full developers to port/make a full Lollipop TW rom. I have a idea and i dont know if it will work. Why dont we port the firmware of the Galaxy J2 to our S3. The reason i said that because they are both quite similar. The screen of the S3 is better than that of the J2, the processor is similar/better, and most of the S3s specs is better or similar to the J2. Or can someone port the Motion rom from the s3 Neo to the intl ver of the S3. I cant port roms because i dont know how to that is why i am asking great developers to help us.
