TouchWiz launcher/home? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have a working apk for the newest version of the TouchWiz launcher -- the one that comes on the Epic 4G -- that will work on the Evo?
Not sure if it is some proprietary Samsung app or not... if it is, sorry for asking.

I don't think just using the apk will work, i think it acts like rosie.apk(sense) does on htc phones not sure. If I had a pc right now, id upload it for ya.

It's dependent on the twiz framework, not going to work without a full port.

If you have used it, you will realize it's not very ideal to use as it breaks a lot of different things and just because the phone boots with the theme doesn't really mean it's compatible or was meant for the Epic.
I would like to recall the statement I made of using the cm6 gingerbread theme for EVO on the epic 4G because I just remembered why I stopped using it in the first place.

pretty sure someone actually did a legit port of it but it might be way down as it wasnt too popular since most people arent using CM until the official

[Q] Samsung Epic touch voice action app and widgets?

Is it possible to port the new voice actions to the epic 1 w/ the widget also?
I tried it out on my Epic and while the voice actions were really really cool imho, it seemed to lag my Epic something fierce and drained the heck out of my battery. Perhaps it truly only works best with dual-core phones. I wanted to be able to stick with it very much though.
I had the version from the Galaxy SII on my Epic 4G before the Epic Touch was released and it worked great. I also like the layout better than the version that is on my Epic Touch.
There is no lag using it on deodexed but otherwise stock EH17 with TWLauncher 4.5.
Well, I was trying the Epic 4G Touch version and I was on the stock odexed EH17 so who knows.
Does anyone have any links they'd care to share? Search isn't showing up with anything.

[Q] MIUI

So does anyone here know if we will be getting MIUI for the epic touch? And if so do you know when we will be getting it? It was my favorite rom for my evo 4g and i would love to see it on this phone. Thanks
It will be ported eventually yes. We need aosp kernels.

I believe lithid-cm already started to work on it indirectly. By indirectly I mean they need a working AOSP kernel/build first. So that's what he is working on right now. I believe the kernel is giving them issues.

It would be really nice of Cyanogen would put out the AOSP kernels along with the stock one because he works for Samsung now.

Not sure why either but I asked lithid-cm the he said they NEED the AOSP kernel/source to work properly, before porting MIUI.

It will usually boot with touchwiz kernel but most of the time 3g 4g touch screen and calls wont work that is why u need aosp kernel .

I rocked Miui on my OG EVO 4G almost exclusivly.
Having finally jumped ship to a stock phone (I rooted ;-)) there are some concerns with going back to miui:
1) NO 4G!!!
2) On Evo, there was no 720p recording with Video... I'd hope we can take advantage of our 1080p cameras!
3) DATA WAS SLOW
That's it... If those 3 things were fixed I'd be happier than a stuffed pig!!
MIUI PROS:
1) customizable like no other!
2) smooth
3) Clean UI
4) overall fun to use

Can Someone make a Froyo Rom for the epic touch

the reason I would want to go back to an old version is because of the sound bug. I can not game on the current os version. most of the game that I play crash on me. It just crash and go back to the home screen without any errors. I was thinking that the Froyo version might not have the sound bug. I don't want to wait for ICS because my old games might not be compatible with it.
Yeah, what the hell make a CM6 one while your at it! lol
I don't think it's a Gingerbread thing, I think it's a Samsung Galaxy S II thing.
How about a cupcake rom? Then we won't have Google maps support or jit! No seriously, why would you want to downgrade the os? How about just a fix on our current software? This would have been relevant on a g1, but not our dual core super phone.
sent from my Epic 4g Touch
Wow this is a first. I've never seen a request to downgrade Android. As far as games go I've never had any issues with them and I play quite a few on mine. Can you name a few of the games that give you issues?
If u want ill trade u a htc hero for the epic touch... Lol

Your logic isn't sound. What reason do you have to believe this has anything to do with Gingerbread? Considering our phone has plenty of other bugs unique to it, the obvious assumption is this is a bug with our phone. One that's likely to be fixed in the next update. A FroYo ROM would just add several hundred more bugs into the mix since it wouldn't be officially supported and fully tested.
No one is gonna make a ROM just for 1 specific issue. I play games all the time no issues here.
This is the funniest request I have seen in a long time. I do give the op props though. At least he didn't post this in development section.

S-Voice APK leak?

Anybody know if there's a leak of the S-Voice app yet? Also any idea if when we do get it on our phones it will work?
I'm guessing it will only work with the newer twiz framework but could just be an app we could get.
It just got announced yesterday...

This is my guess as well. The challanges would be:
Need ICS
Probably need TouchWiz framework (ICS version)
Very likely not enough RAM in Epic to run ICS + TW + voice app
CM9 dev's are working hard to free up 1-2mb RAM at a time, throwing TW on there would likely bring things to a standstill. I think we are reaching the limit of what our phone can handle with AOSP ICS/CM9.
Wouldn't we be able to just modify the S-Voice.apk to make it independent from the TW framework? Kinda like what Tortel did with the stock Sammy Task Manager/Calender/Calculator/etc.?

Yes, Samsung created the S-Voice to basically compete with Apple's Siri. Whether its up to par with Siri, we'll have to see

Right, hopefully many of the S3's features can be back ported to the S2. However I don't see ports for the og S getting this love. Hopefully some cleaver devs will prove me wrong though.
