hey
is it possible to install the original android rom(created by google) on galaxy y ?
i don't want to use the rom made by samsung which has touchwiz and default loaded apps by samsung, i know i can use custom rom and remove apps but what about the ui ? can i use the original android ui developed by google the one i see in sdk
what is that ui called ?
is it possible to use it instead of touch wiz ?
Stock android launchers are available in form of Mods for some devices..
slightly offtopic.. anyone knows if Touchwiz is also hardware accelerated like the stock launcher?
i found one but it was for htc and didn't worked had problems with menu icons, where i can find one for my galaxy y ?
thanks

Hello,
Firstly, I am new to this forum. I watched the "noob video" and try to follow the guidelines.
I own a Samsung Galaxy Y(oung) GT-S5363. The baseband version is S5363XXKK3.
My Carrier is O2 Germany.
Now I found that the original firmware's options are kinda limited. For instance it doesn't have different profiles and there is no setting for vibration feedback while typing.
Now I want to flash my phone with a custom ROM. The ROMs I found are for the GT-S5360, but after a short forum search I discovered that I can use 5360 ROMs.
However, the custom ROMs I found are a little bloated. I don't want the ROM to have as many functions as you can pack into it and change the whole look & feel of the phone.
I want the ROM to use as little RAM and CPU as possible. It is not important to have German as UI language setting, but the Swype keyboard should know German.
Now which ROMs could you recommend to me? If there is no ROM out there which meets my requirements, would you recommend me building my own one?
Thanks in advance,
Luca
check out the multilanguage roms in android dev. section.. u can find the rom u like over there
Cranium is very minimalistic. So I guess Cranium is the one you are looking for. Theres only a handful of Roms available though.
No custom rom atm has Swype as keyboard. Just download Swype beta, it has German language support.

hybrid is also known as a light one. if you want the swype. copy swype.apk in your current rom (in /system/app) to your sd card then copy it to /system/app folder in custom rom's zip folder.
btw, you can remove any bloatware from your rom manually by deleting the apk's via root explorer or any file explorer which could acces system's folder.
Is this possible with Linux as Desktop OS? I use Xubuntu and don't want to install Windows just for messing around with my smartphone^^
to modify the rom's *zip file you can do it in linux or whatever OS as long as you can open the zip file. to manually remove the bloatware from your current stock rom you should root your device and install root explorer.
So, I clicked through a few threads with the alternative firmwares. As far as I got it, both the Cranium and the Hybrid mod change the look & feel drastically. Is there a way to have more settings with the Samsung TouchWiz UI?
you may use another launcher...

More settings? Try Creed's. It has Auto Brightness, Xloud, Swipe to remove notifications in the newest version and what not. Im running on v2.0 though.

Hi, I recommend EmeralD ROM
It contains German Swype, and just some minimal modifications on the stock ROM.
There's all the stock apps in, but you can remove the unneeded apps from the zip (system/app folder) before applying.
Hello,
I wish the optics from the stock android (like cm11 oder silm rom) but with all the functions of a TW Rom. Is this possible?
The System UI must be also like Stock Android and the Toggles.

There was ROMs in the past where it was "themed" to look like CM .. though now there is not a single ROM with this.. and if you would want to do such a thing, it require a lot of work .. you would need to edit lots of things like framework and systemui

Hello,
there is a way to make only the very hard to make. Can you give me a simple way to show how I can start?

Basically android General User interface is made of multiple apk files .. Apps in other words.
For example
System/framework/framework-res.apk contains the android design that apps would use it. And how phone looks in general
Systemui.apk is status bar and the pull down and pop ups
Those are the very main ones.
You should edit the apk files and swap the touchwiz images with the one you want..
For other system apps, you would want to edit them too separately (settings, camera, music, etc.)
I don't know much about it .. But that's all I can help with.

And how can extract tge files from apk?
Hi! , I want to replace Nokia X system UI (launcher, status bar) with android's stock UI or Samsung's UI.
I read somewhere i have to flash some system files (not writing name, as they are critical files and lay men can destroy their phones). can any one give me complete guide to do so... I don't want to flash custom roms.
Thank you in Advance.!
I am sorry that I can not help but It seems it would be easier just to install 3-rd party launcher like Nova launcher and use it instead of the default Nokia launcher. What you ask seems possible by installing custom rom but currently all custom ROMs for Nokia X are either full of bugs or are laggy. You can have a look at the dhacker's thread for AOSP/Code Aurora Vanilla Android 4.1.2 for Nokia X (normandy) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2710107) but even this one has a bug which one should overcome by a workaround.
As the title would say, are there any lollipop dialler APKs or something? I can't install it from Google Play since it's not compatible with my version and i don't want to install apps such as KK Dialler or ExDialer :-\ I also searched for APKs but can't find any version that fits my phone's OS (Android 5.0.2, API 21). The reason why I am asking for this is simply because I hate Lagwiz- i mean Touchwiz, and I am replacing original apps one by one (disabling them with root access). But i simply can't find Google dialler (looking for version 2.0 because that's for 5.0 lollipop), so I have thought to ask around here
I hope people with similar issues will find this thread to discuss about this... You can also give me a flashable zip but with some detailed instructions since I have little to no experience with flashing zip files (never did it).
Anyways thank you in advance... :good:

Hello guys,
I have an LG G3 dual sim - d858hk which I am trying to bring as close as possible to stock as I miss my Nexus 5 a lot.
I installed google launcher, clock, camera, photos etc. and it now looks as close as possible to stock (excluding notifications shade and some other things).
I am trying to install the google phone app but it's not allowing me to do so. My question is, does anyone know if I root my phone, will I be able to install these apps?
Also anyone know if the stock lock screen can be replaced? Thanks!
I`m on Marshmallow 6.0 v30a

Hey there if you miss stock android like nexus 5 have you need to root your device because there is a custom ROM available for your model and it's stock ROM like AOSP ROM
Try it if you want but kiss your warranty good bye good luck
