Just wondering, are there any dev teams out there making a version of essentially a stock AOSP ROM for the G3? All the ROMs being worked in the dev section are great but I'd really like a stock AOSP experience without theme engines from other ROMs, weird notification schemes, floating window hacks, etc.

What would be the differences of CM9, AOKP, and AOSP roms out there?
Found this on android forums "marc12868"
"Cm9 and AOKP are both custom roms based on AOSP. AOKP is more like Miui in a sense. You can customize pretty much everything from font colors to notification bar, etc. I've never used it personally, but people like it."

AOSP is Android Open Source Project. Which is the heart of the android OS system.
CM9 is CyanogenMod (ics) It is AOSP but built by third party group of developers. they take Google's AOSP code and improve on it. There goal is to make the most stablest AOSP rom available to as many devices as they can.
AOKP is Android Open Kang Project. it is AOSP but built by a third party group of developers. The take Google's AOSP code and improve on it. But they also throw in a lot of customization that CM might not offer

AOKP roms often have unicorns in the bootup animation, wallpaper, etc., and is referred to colloquially as 'unicorn porn'. Exhibit A.

Unicorn pron is hot!
cant wait for a good aokp rom for rezound... If you tried any let me know. Its hard to stay on one rom... they all have something different in them.
now with that info unicorn porn on my rezound shoot rainbows out speakers awesome.
AOSP means the Android open source project.
Cyanogenmod 9 is based on AOSP.
Then there are ROMs based on CM9 which add a few more features and loads of additional settings menus to further customize the cyanogenmod experience. Examples are Gummy and AOKP.
Correct me if I'm wrong but copy-protected video, i.e. Netflix, will not play on AOKP ROMs.
Hello! I know it's not polite to ask which rom is better or all that stuff, but i really like the visual roms.
From your opinion which ones are the most visual roms based in GB? I'm currently con cm7.2, and you can do a lot of customization there but it's good when a rom comes beautiful by default.
I have tried Mokee OS, MIUI, and they are awesome, but i had some troubles with the camera for some reason.
It seems like most of the users don't like touchwiz roms, everybody has an opinion about it and I am curious. Why should I and why shouldn't I move to the stock Android? Can anybody tell me the pluses and minuses of stock android?
Pluses:
CM, vanilla android, fast and beautiful
Minuses:
Unfixable bugs. Occasional glitchyness.

Also, people say it's more customizable, do they mean themes or mods? I couldn't find much customization for stock, where should I look?

even touchwiz roms are customizable with jkay settings. but aosp or aokp roms do not have all the samsung stock features like s-voice and like so that they are very lite and are very fast. camera has some issues on aosp and aokp roms unlike stock sammy. you can find customizations in thems section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1567 :good:
I had a few questions about AOSP ROMs and such. Firstly, I know what an AOSP ROM is, don't get me wrong, but one thing I didn't know is if an AOSP ROM for the S4 came with the features the phone is supposed to have like smart scroll, air gestures etc. Do they, or is there one that does? My second question was, if AOSP ROMs do not include these features is there a way to theme the phone to look like AOSP or a ROM (other than Eclipse) that looks like AOSP but has the features of the phone? I really like the AOSP look, but I want the features the phone is supposed to have. Also, the reason I don't want to run Eclipse is because I've tried it and loved it, however, the clock with the owner information for the lock screen doesn't work (at least for me, the owner info doesn't show up) and I really want the owner info there. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
By its v very definition, those features are not part of AOSP roms. They ate proprietary to Samsung's TouchWiz overlay.

Hi guys,
As the title says, I'm looking for some custom Jelly Bean 4.3 Roms based on official Samsung Rom for my i9100, so it would have Touchwiz also.
Currently i keep switching between CM10.2 (4.3.1) and Wanamlite 14.7 (4.1.2).
I like Wanamlite just because it uses the Samsung Touchwiz interface i like so much. Other than that, any other stock Rom, rooted and debloated would do just about the same.
What i like about CM10.2 and cyanogenmod in general is the speed and stability the Rom feels like. Also, the latest 4.3 Roms gave me infinitely great battery lives compared to any other JB Rom i tried since. And judging from other posts and reviews on the internet, Google worked their magic on 4.3 to help small batteries run through the day (almost double the life of 4.1.2 or even worst 4.2.x).
So it seems the perfect combo for me would be a 4.3 custom with TW.
Is there such a Rom, because it seems i can't find it.
Thanks.
There is no such thing. TouchWiz is more than a launcher. It`s a full system framework integrated in pretty much everything. For example, TW ads the speed dial and video call in phone app, the swipe to quick call or message in contacts app, SNS integration, FM Radio. And of course all the other "smart" features, like smart display.
If however, you don't need any of the features mentioned above, you can find custom launchers with skins that look exactly like TW and use them on any custom rom.
Thank you for your reply.
I realize i can install some Launcher apps to get some of the TW "feel", as i already tried Apex and Nova launchers. But they don't come even close to the real TW experience. As you said, TW is more than an icon set or interface color set. It's also about built-in apps and features. I know nothing about coding and programming on Android, so i thought one could implement TW along all those apps into some custom ROM like CM10.2 (4.3).
So, i guess i was wrong.
If so, this thread can be closed.
Thank you.
