Its touchwiz and no there's no way to get that back but you could get adw ex as a replacement launcher.... btws are you on stock el30 non rooted or rooted?

I just downloaded the odin recovery packages.... im so used to odining back to EC05 to clean up my epic I got tired of it LOL. I finally decided no more, so I odined back to el30 today for the first time and it SUCKS.
I love CM but I havent had much luck with it. My phone resets every time I try to download an app from the market, my web browser scrolling is horrible, I cant seem to get it to run right on my phone.

ROFL

Just change your launcher. Get off the TW Launcher nipple. Try Zeam. Works fine.

Zeam launcher is sexy, however, I didn't know the non-scrolling was related to touchwiz, so I will now be downloading zeam.

Cm9 doesn't have scrolling lag nor does any of the newest cm7 nightlies... however there is a flashable to incorporate the smooth scrolling mod in development.
As for the reboots its the gapps that does it and you must wait for the phone to load completely before downloading andinstalling apps and if that doest help then you'll need to wipe data in cwm and reboot

Actually it has lots of lag scrolling up and down on contacts, in manage applications, and anywhere you can scroll through long lists. It's like it is sticky. But great for an Alpha. Seems CM7 is my daily now and CM9 is my toy.

Cm9? Or 7?
Cm9 is android 4.0.3 so a lot better than other ROM's
However some quirks such as high ram etc. Also there are certain tweaks other roms don't have ie CyanogenMod Settings. I'm not too sure but I have tw, cm7, miui , and cm9 backed up on my phone and jump from them on a day to day basis

Pay no attention to Biggies delusions, he runs his Epic at 2.0 Ghz with a turbo Nitrous afterburner and also wouldn't know lag if it fell on him...LOL. Everyone else but you are reporting that it takes more effort to scroll on CM9 and doesn't scroll a lot with a quick swipe.

About kernels.. can someone help out or post a link on a good kernel and how to install it.. I've honestly never messed with the kernel before.
My phone has been doing this on stock ec05. I was epicless for a while and then got it fixed and was dissapointed when at a concert i started getting video camera failed messages.
If you have the native twitter app, removing it and using something else. I had the same issue with my recorder and youtube app and uninstalling twitters app fixed it. Can't remember which thread I read that in but my video player/recorder and youtube player work perfect now.

It has been attempted but the framework is so different that until there are stable ports to different devices it will not work out.
The one in the market to me just isn't good at all. I mean they did good work but just the fact that they insist on having those onscreen buttons there and not make them option is what bugs me the most. The app drawer is going to be a chore to try to even imitate. Like I said they do good work but they don't seem to take user input very seriously.
I feel the same about all android imitated launchers in the market, froyo, GB, ICS ex... But I think Ics is ugly anyways, that's why when it comes out for our phone, I will theme the hell out of it on day #1.

Imitation miui 4

Would there be any possible way to make a miui 4 look a like based off of cm9 with all the features? Lets just say for the people who live on 4g

What's the point? Just wait for 4g to hit MIUI4. CM9 is a pure blessing for us epic owners.

Dude...stop using voice recognition to make posts, the result is gibberish.
Are you asking for a theme that would make CM9 look like MIUI4? If so I'd say you are out of luck. IMO the things that make MIUI interesting go much further than the items that could be themed over on CM9.

Not that I know of, I don't think its possible. You'll have to delete some stuff to make room. Things like the wallpaper APK's if you don't use. The touchwiz social things, stock widgets etc. There is plenty you can remove that you probably never use.

i kind of have to agree. its pretty much the same as voice commands already except there is a voice that talks back. however, the talking voice only works on occassions for me on top of it FC and/or lagging. and i've tried every install method possible, it just doesnt seem to like my phone. plus i've noticed it drains the heck out of my battery.

It was wise marketing/defensive move by Samsung. Now a sales person can say if you only want an iPhone because of SIRI you can check out the galaxy s3 as it has more extensive voice commands over other Android phones.

And that is why the OP details are always important.. Would have save a few clicks of the mouse.
See it on a few devices so unless someone is willing to port it over and test.. but the short search of ports looks like a TW base would be the way you'd have to go. Breaks the actual puzzle and all you'd get is a touch location.. Desire Z folks, sidekickers, mezmorized peeps, Evos.. failed.
Seeing how it's on the Galaxy S, maybe someone here will try.
Sorry misread that I will check into it

Not trying to be disrespectful, but I'd never would have suggested an app if the OP would have stated you were on CM10. Hopefully you can uninstall it and get back to normal.
Ask for a port, revamp your OP. State your current setup, details, and what you're looking for. It never hurts to ask and it never hurts to provide as many details as you can.
