[Q] Porting Roms? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi im just wondering if anyone is planning to port a Windows Mobile OS or a TouchWiz OS? just wanna try it on my vision not that im pro WM or PRO TW

I don't even think porting WM7 would be possible... and I don't think that anyone would port TouchWiz just because it sucks so much.

I like .. Launcher Pro

Launcher Pro is way better than Sense anyway IMO.
These days, there's simply too many HTC software dependencies to really make it work right on your device.
I love sense (again) but LPP simply handles it so much better, at least launcher wise. Much more customization with the same widgets

just wondering....
do EVO Devs or members.... want Touchwiz on our EVOs?
is there a ROM?

Touchwiz really is an abomination of a UI. I don't miss my epic at all.

[Q] TouchWiz 4.0

Hi everybody- seems like samsung's not going to update the touchwiz 3 launcher on galaxy s, so i was wondering, is it possible to port the sgs2 touchwiz 4.0 launcher to original sgs devices? i really love the touchwiz launcher, and 4 seems to be ALOT better then the 3.0 version, so will we get touchwiz 4 on sgs?

Maybe..who knows? Nobody can't say yes or no until sgs2 is available..then maybe we can expect tw4..but still it probably will take some time to see a ported version.
Btw..wrong section..

Galaxy S I9000 Q&A
Hi fellows!
Since this is talking about TW4, there was a video showing TW4 on the Galaxy S 1 here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_17eWhaRFs
This is obviously a fake.. and I hate people lying on others and giving theme false hope, so I made a video here proving that fake:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcGXpNSrGfY
So please if you too agree, please share the video on the first one's comment, since that little silly boy blocked me from commenting as I was right.. It would be helpful. Thanks!
As for naranova7's question: We will have to wait for a first system dump from the GSII, then, a lot of people will work on it to do a port. Wait & see.
Ok, the video is obviously fake but how did he made it? Where did he got the icons and widgets?
Well, these are just wallpapers, as I say in the video, the widgets are IN the wallpaper. And the dock icons are also in the wallpapers, so they are just static images.
And it is not TW Launcher, I think it is ADW (see the AppDrawer).
If I had more time I could make one like that, I'll see if I have enough time next week.
has any of you guys tried the new official gingerbread yet? does it have touchwiz 3 or 4?
Tw 3 and no daily breifing

I have forgotten a lot but if I recall it correctly, there is a mod for AOSP ROM to get the touchwiz.
Better ask the other more about this.
out of interest why would you want touchwiz?
almost everyone with a Galaxy S I know doesn't want it either

It is true. I have played for a couple of minutes with the Galaxy S2 and beside the speed due to better hardware, I didn't impressed at all.
I own a Desire and a SGS2 and I have to admitt that TouchWiz4 impresses me a lot more than Sense.

from what ive seen, touchwizz is more functional and more customizable than sense which only 'looks nice' but i dont think it does look that nice
guess it is simply an individual matter
i never tried touchwiz, from what ive seen on videos it doesnt really make me want a SGS2.
one desire developer, baadnewz, recently bought SGS2 but he sold it very soon after and bought HTC Sensation reason: "cant live without sense"
so like i said, everyone likes what he/she likes
It's not that I don't like sense I just wanna try something different. I sometimes get tired of the look of sense and wanna try Touchwiz out. Is it just me or is sense just getting boring their are just so many devices with it on them its no longer fresh.
Sent from my PB99400 using XDA App
If you are bored of Sense and wanna try something new, why don't you try MIUI or AOSP?
Note:
It is also true that I tend to prefer Sense over MIUI, Moto-Blur or Touchwiz.
Isn't Blur dead now?
didn't Moto even rename it?
I will also be trying MIUI after my device is able to be rooted.

Well sorry bro ... The thing about nexus people is that we're hardcore android purists and hate adulterated versions of android. These people never get enough of a faster better aosp. They sell one nexus and buy the next nexus. Looks the same works the same. But it's latest nexus. So dude if your looking for skins You bought the wrong device bro.

Hmm....thanks .... May be I'll wait till android 4.3 comes out and will see how things will turn out

I actually agree with the OP.
When I bought this phone I thought there was going to be multiple Ver of android available to us since it's a developer phone. The themes make up for it though.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Sounds very much like a best rom thread hence it's closure.

Samsung Galaxy S7 ROM Port?

Hey there devs!
Uh, I was just wondering if any of you guys can port the Touchwiz UI or perhaps, even the new Note 7 Grace UI ROM for our OnePlus 3? This might be possible if we take the ROM from the Snapdragon 820 based S7 as base, right? Asking this cuz the new Touchwiz is really optimized pretty good and looks pretty neat.
Thanks in advance

You'd have to heavily theme a CM ROM if you wanted it to look like TouchWiz.
Porting Samsung ROMs to non-samsung devices has always been somewhat unsuccessful due to the audio drivers and camera drivers being structured differently. Unless we have someone talented enough to redesign a driver for those things.
I wouldn't mind Grace UX on my OP3

But its strange to ask for a port of IOS to samsung device. I like apple products and theirs operative system. They fit so well with each other. They still use dual core cpu (1.83ghz 6s) but its on top. Osx is so battery friendly ram management friendly etc . Android is so power hungry.. use more than 2times more battery. Once iphone gives dual sim model ill switch for it.

which method/tool are you using to do so?
Some people hate TouchWiz other love it, but I think the good of Android and the Oneplus with the capabilities to port a ROM. So let's do it I will try it on my OP3
Just read the article on here about how poorly optimised Touchwiz is on the note, and how it hampers performance, and then this.
